      go/zodb: LiveCache: Reclassify all objects on cache control change · 1e6aeeee
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      If cache control changes, all objects needs to go through new cache
control as what was e.g. pinned before could be in other class
from the point of view of new cache control.

Tests pending...

      go/zodb: LiveCache: Allow objects to be pinned / omitted from the cache · 4357db3f
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      We already have LiveCacheControl and policy to keep object state in live
cache. However that state is currently kept only until the object is
present in the cache, and the object is there currently only until there
are live pointers to the object from anywhere. If all such pointers go
away, LiveCache currently discards the object.

Add a way (PCachePinObject) to tell live cache that it must retain an
object even if there are no other pointers to it. This is needed for
Wendelin.core which semantically relies on some objects to be present in
live cache, even if in ghost state, for propagating ZODB invalidations
into OS pagecache:

https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/wendelin.core/blob/000bf16359/wcfs/wcfs.go#L245

For symmetry add a way (PCacheDropObject) to tell live cache that it
must not retain an object. This makes sense for objects that are read in
large only once to avoid needlessly evicting all other objects while
making the room for what won't be soon used again.

For completeness add also a way (PCacheDropState) to tell live cache
that the state of this object should not be cached. This can make sense
even for objects that are pinned: for example Wendelin.core pins ZBlk
objects to rely on volatile metadata it attaches to them, but have to
drop ZBlk state that was loaded from database: that state is propagated
to be cached in OS pagecache, and keeping it also in ZODB live cache
would just waste RAM.

Finally add test to cover LiveCache/LiveCacheControl functionality in
detail.

      go/zodb: Prepare to rework/fix LiveCache control · cb6fd5a8
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      We are going to rework LiveCache to support both retaining objects in
cache even though if all pointers to them went away (currently such
objects disappear from cache), and to tell the cache that such and such
object should not be cached at all, e.g. not to evict all other objects
on one-time large reads.

This will be done by LiveCacheControl giving cache policy classification
for an object. Prepare for that and change

	WantEvict(obj) -> bool

to

	PCacheClassify(obj) PCachePolicy

which can give more information to LiveCache about how to handle an
object.

This is only a preparatory patch as there is neither no new
functionality nor fixes here.

      go/zodb: persistent tests: Factor test database setup out of TestPersistentDB · 1a2772e3
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      We already have "testing connection" functionality in common place (was
named tPersistentDB -> now tConnection). However the functionality to
"setup and use testing database" was inside TestPersistentDB only.

Since we are going to add more tests, factor that functionality out of
TestPersistentDB into shared infrastructure that could be reused in
between tests (-> tDB).

      go/zodb: Don't expose LiveCache internal organization onto its users · 2e8448ad
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      Provide functions to:

- set cache element
- iterate through all elements

LiveCache organization will be changed in the following patch, and it is
better to keep the knowledge about its internal structure localized.

      go/zodb: OpenStorage -> Open · 6badef15
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      For ZODB we always open database at storage level. Thus `zodb.Open(zurl)`
is relevant. At application level we open database creating DB from
IStorage and using DB.Open() .

      go/zodb: LastTid -> Sync + Head · 151d8b79
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      Today LastTid is ambiguous: does it return locally cached last transaction ID,
or it performs round-trip to server to get more uptodate view of what has been
last committed? As the result of this ambiguity some drivers (e.g. FileStorage,
ZEO) return cached view, while other drivers (upcoming NEO, living on t branch)
was doing the full round-trip.

There are also situations where whether or not LastTid performs syncing to
server affects semantics: for example if there are two ERP5 nodes and one
node commits something into ZODB and conveys the fact that something has been
committed via another channel, the second ERP5 node should have a reliable way
to observe committed data. But currently there is no such way: on next DB.Open,
even with at=0 meaning "use latest transaction" and with opt.NoSync=false,
DB.Open uses storage.LastTid() as a way to sync and oops - for some drivers it
won't result in real synchronization and thus opened connection could
potentially have older view with not yet latest data.

To fix this ambiguity require drivers to provide Sync functionality only. That
should return ID of last transaction committed to storage data as observed from
some time _afterwards_ Sync call was made. In other words for particular
client-server case, Sync cannot return cached view of storage and has to
perform round-trip to the server.

At IStorage level we provide two entry points: Sync, to perform syncing, and
Head that returns database head (last transaction ID) as viewed by local cache
without any synchronization.

Please see changes to IStorageDriver and IStorage interfaces for details.

The rest of the changes are:

- teach zodb.storage (the IStorage implementer) to actually implement Sync/Head.
- adapt zodb.DB to perform Sync for !opt.NoSync case.
- teach FileStorage to do proper syncing instead of returning local cache.
- teach ZEO to perform "lastTransaction" RPC call for syncing instead of
  returning local cache.
- adapt the rest of the tree to interfaces change.

      go/zodb: DB: preserve δtail not to go down to ø slice on seldom commits · 4224b580
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      If we use only the rule that we keep last 10 minutes of database
history, and commits come less often than that - e.g. once per 30
minutes, on every new commit we'll be throwing away all δtail data,
which would result on completely throwing away live cache on every
DB.Open .

Add another rule to cover seldom updates spectrum so that we never throw
till empty δtail and keep at least 10 elements in δtail queue. This will
make sure that live cache is preserved even when updates to database are
seldom to come.

Tests pending...

next commit, as well as going through raw δtail data is also generally
useful.

      go/zodb: Connection.Resync · bae8fda6
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      Add low-level option to resync Connection to another database state with
preserving its live cache.

Wendelin.core needs this for its main ZODB connection because it needs
to carefully propagate ZODB invalidations into file invalidations and
semantically relies on objects staying in ZODB live cache for this to
work correctly:

      go/zodb: DB: handle invalidations · 918455e7
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      Implement invalidation handling to teach DB to reuse Connections from
connection pool: after connection is returned to the pool on transaction
completion, we can use this connection for next DB.Open(at) request, by
seeing which objects we changed in conn.at..at range and invalidating
those objects in connection live cache.

To know which objects were changed, DB adds watch on its storage and
maintains some history tail (using ΔTail - see previous commit).

Finally add test for both DB and Connection, and also for Persistent,
LiveCache, ... - as all those application-level components are tightly
inter-related.

      go/zodb: ΔTail · d8e9d7a9
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      Add ΔTail - utility class to keep track of history tail of revisional
changes. This will be needed for both DB (to handle invalidations) and
for raw Cache(*). It also might be useful in places outside of zodb/go -
for example WCFS from Wendelin.core uses ΔTail to keep track of which
ZODB revision changed which block of file(+).

Please see ΔTail comments for details.

(*) to check a bit ahead on load to see whether loaded serial is
actually the latest one for ≤ Cache.head, and, if yes, mark
corresponding cache entry as having .head="current" so that the entry
coverage could be extended when Cache.head is extended to cover more
database state instead of loading the same data from the database again.

(+) that's why we have δtail.go.cat-generic, so that third-party
packages could adapt ΔTail to needed types.

      go/zodb: Require DB to be closed · 2f5e3606
      Kirill Smelkov authored 
      DB is a "handle to database". It has to be closed to release its
resources when no longer needed. We don't have to release anything
currently, but that will soon change in a followup patch.
