      I set out making wait=1 work for fallback connections, i.e. the · 24afe7ac
      Guido van Rossum authored
      ClientStorage constructor called with both wait=1 and
      read_only_fallback=1 should return, indicating its readiness, when a
      read-only connection was made.  This is done by calling
      connect(sync=1).  Previously this waited for the ConnectThread to
      finish, but that thread doesn't finish until it's made a read-write
      connection, so a different mechanism is needed.
      
      I ended up doing a major overhaul of the interfaces between
      ClientStorage, ConnectionManager, ConnectThread/ConnectWrapper, and
      even ManagedConnection.  Changes:
      
      ClientStorage.py:
      
        ClientStorage:
      
        - testConnection() now returns just the preferred flag; stubs are
          cheap and I like to have the notifyConnected() signature be the
          same for clients and servers.
      
        - notifyConnected() now takes a connection (to match the signature
          of this method in StorageServer), and creates a new stub.  It also
          takes care of the reconnect business if the client was already
          connected, rather than the ClientManager.  It stores the
          connection as self._connection so it can close the previous one.
          This is also reset by notifyDisconnected().
      
      zrpc/client.py:
      
        ConnectionManager:
      
        - Changed self.thread_lock into a condition variable.  It now also
          protects self.connection.  The condition is notified when
          self.connection is set to a non-None value in connect_done();
          connect(sync=1) waits for it.  The self.connected variable is no
          more; we test "self.connection is not None" instead.
      
        - Tried to made close() reentrant.  (There's a trick: you can't set
          self.connection to None, conn.close() ends up calling close_conn()
          which does this.)
      
        - Renamed notify_closed() to close_conn(), for symmetry with the
          StorageServer API.
      
        - Added an is_connected() method so ConnectThread.try_connect()
          doesn't have to dig inside the manager's guts to find out if the
          manager is connected (important for the disposition of fallback
          wrappers).
      
        ConnectThread and ConnectWrapper:
      
        - Follow above changes in the ClientStorage and ConnectionManager
          APIs: don't close the manager's connection when reconnecting, but
          leave that up to notifyConnected(); ConnectWrapper no longer
          manages the stub.
      
        - ConnectWrapper sets self.sock to None once it's created a
          ManagedConnection -- from there on the connection is is charge of
          closing the socket.
      
      zrpc/connection.py:
      
        ManagedServerConnection:
      
        - Changed the order in which close() calls things; super_close()
          should be last.
      
        ManagedConnection:
      
        - Ditto, and call the manager's close_conn() instead of
          notify_closed().
      
      tests/testZEO.py:
      
        - In checkReconnectSwitch(), we can now open the client storage with
          wait=1 and read_only_fallback=1.

      Address Chris McDonough's request: make the ClientStorage() · f8411024
      Guido van Rossum authored
      constructor signature backwards compatible with ZEO 1.  This means
      adding wait_for_server_on_startup and debug options.
      wait_for_server_on_startup is an alias for wait, which makes the
      argument decoding for these two a little tricky.  debug is ignored.
      
      Also change the default of wait to True, like it was in ZEO 1.  This
      is less likely to screw naive customers.

      Cache policy improvement: · d1c6a2c8
      Guido van Rossum authored
      When load() finds a hit in the non-current file, copy it to the
      current file (except when this would cause a cache flip).
      
      It is hoped that this improves the cache performance.
      
      (Now merged into the trunk!  Jeremy & Jim want this in the ZEO and ZODB3 beta2 releases.)

      Fix a mysterious Windows hang: checkReconnectSwitch() would fail. · 5cf04dac
      Guido van Rossum authored
      The fix is to change testConnection() to only retry the register()
      call with the read-only flag set when we're not alrady connected.
      But I don't understand why this fix is needed; I'll keep debugging.
