Currently, error injections can be enabled either through HTTP or CQL.
While these mechanisms are effective for injecting errors after a node
has already started, it can't be reliably used to trigger failures
shortly after node start. In order to support this use case, this commit
adds possibility to enable some error injections via config.
A configuration option `error_injections_at_startup` is added. This
option uses our existing configuration framework, so it is possible to
supply it either via CLI or in the YAML configuration file.
- When passed in commandline, the option is parsed as a
semicolon-separated list of error injection names that should be
enabled. Those error injections are enabled in non-oneshot mode.
The CLI option is marked as not used in release mode and does not
appear in the option list.
Example:
--error-injections-at-startup failure_point1;failure_point2
- When provided in YAML config, the option is parsed as a list of items.
Each item is either a string or a map or parameters. This method is
more flexible as it allows to provide parameters for each injection
point. At this time, the only benefit is that it allows enabling
points in oneshot mode, but more parameters can be added in the future
if needed.
Explanatory example:
error_injections_at_startup:
- failure_point1 # enabled in non-oneshot mode
- name: failure_point2 # enabled in oneshot mode
one_shot: true # due to one_shot optional parameter
The primary goal of this feature is to facilitate testing of raft-based
cluster features. An error injection will be used to enable an
additional feature to simulate node upgrade.
