Recently, in merge commit 2718c90448,
we added the ability to cancel pending view-update requests when we detect
that the target node went down. This is important for view updates because
these have a very long timeout (5 minutes), and we wanted to make this
timeout even longer.
However, the implementation caused a race: Between *creating* the update's
request handler (create_write_response_handler()) and actually starting
the request with this handler (mutate_begin()), there is a preemption point
and we may end up deleting the request handler before starting the request.
So mutate_begin() must gracefully handle the case of a missing request
handler, and not crash with a segmentation fault as it did before this patch.
Eventually the lifetime management of request handlers could be refactored
to avoid this delicate fix (which requires more comments to explain than
code), or even better, it would be more correct to cancel individual writes
when a node goes down, not drop the entire handler (see issue #4523).
However, for now, let's not do such invasive changes and just fix bug that
we set out to fix.
Fixes #4386.

Scylla
Quick-start
To get the build going quickly, Scylla offers a frozen toolchain which would build and run Scylla using a pre-configured Docker image. Using the frozen toolchain will also isolate all of the installed dependencies in a Docker container. Assuming you have met the toolchain prerequisites, which is running Docker in user mode, building and running is as easy as:
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./configure.py
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ninja build/release/scylla
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./build/release/scylla --developer-mode 1
Please see HACKING.md for detailed information on building and developing Scylla.
Note: GCC >= 8.1.1 is required to compile Scylla.
Running Scylla
- Run Scylla
./build/release/scylla
- run Scylla with one CPU and ./tmp as data directory
./build/release/scylla --datadir tmp --commitlog-directory tmp --smp 1
- For more run options:
./build/release/scylla --help
Building Fedora RPM
As a pre-requisite, you need to install Mock on your machine:
# Install mock:
sudo yum install mock
# Add user to the "mock" group:
usermod -a -G mock $USER && newgrp mock
Then, to build an RPM, run:
./dist/redhat/build_rpm.sh
The built RPM is stored in /var/lib/mock/<configuration>/result directory.
For example, on Fedora 21 mock reports the following:
INFO: Done(scylla-server-0.00-1.fc21.src.rpm) Config(default) 20 minutes 7 seconds
INFO: Results and/or logs in: /var/lib/mock/fedora-21-x86_64/result
Building Fedora-based Docker image
Build a Docker image with:
cd dist/docker
docker build -t <image-name> .
Run the image with:
docker run -p $(hostname -i):9042:9042 -i -t <image name>
