jeremyhi 60655a933b fix(log-store): persist object store WAL region releases (#9579)
* fix(log-store): persist object store WAL region releases

A region's release lived only in memory: a restart after DROP TABLE and
before the next object never re-established the dropped region's
watermark, so its segments counted as live and pinned garbage collection
of the whole prefix.

A release now writes a release record (region id and the entry id the
region is released through) into an object sealed at once, and returns
once that object is durable and indexed, in both acknowledgement modes.
Recovery seeds the obsolete watermarks from the release records of the
indexed objects before it computes any reclaim boundary. obsolete_all
releases in full; the new LogStore::release_region, a no-op by default,
releases a dropped region through the largest entry id the store handed
out for it, and Mito calls it after obsolete when it drops a region.

Objects with release records use format version 2, the version 1 layout
with the records at the end of the footer; every other object is still
written as version 1. A counter of release records made durable is added.

* fix(log-store): carry a failed region release into the next object

A release whose batch failed left its record only in an orphan object,
so a drop that failed there could still leave the region unreleased
after a restart. The store now keeps the release records of failed
batches and seals them with its next batch, on a timer tick when no
entry is admitted, so the release becomes durable once a create
succeeds again.

The version 1 and version 2 object fixtures are frozen under
tests/compatibility/wal/object_store and loaded by the format tests,
and the RFC no longer says that state is persisted only in headers.

* fix(mito2): complete a region drop whose WAL release fails

A drop request is not sent again once the region was removed, so a drop
whose WAL release failed used to leave the region half dropped. The
drop now completes, cleaning up the region's runtime state and
scheduling its files for deletion, and reports the release failure.

In the durable mode the object store WAL now creates one more object at
stop with the release records of failed and dropped batches, so a
graceful stop does not lose a release that failed. The release record
counter is described as counting the records of indexed objects.

* fix(log-store): fail region releases while the object store WAL is failing

A failing store keeps its backlog and rejects appends until a create
succeeds, so a release would otherwise wait for an upload that is not
coming. A release that arrives in that state now fails at once with the
retryable error, and one whose batch is still pending when the store
enters it fails as well. Neither poisons the store: the record of the
first waits for the next sealed batch, like that of a batch that failed,
and the record of the second stays in the backlog, so both become durable
once a create succeeds.

Rejected releases count in rejected_appends_total.

* docs(rfc): place the drop crash window in the drop procedure

The crash window between the deletion of a table's metadata and a
durable release record is a gap of the drop procedure, not of the WAL.
Describe it as far as the code shows, name the remedy that belongs in
the procedure, cleaning up offline a region a resumed region drop finds
not open, and list it under future work.

* fix(log-store): keep rejected release records coalesced while failing

A release rejected while the store is failing kept its record for the
next sealed batch, but every timer tick then sealed that record alone
behind the refused backlog, so a release repeated across ticks grew the
backlog without bound. A failing store now keeps such records coalesced
and seals them on the first tick after a create succeeds.

The fault-matrix case of a release while the backlog is refused now runs
with a 10 ms flush interval, repeats the release, and checks that the
backlog does not grow and that recovery reads the record back.

* fix(log-store): let a stop seal rejected release records of a failing store

Keeping the records of rejected releases out of sealed batches while the
store is failing also kept them out of the seal a stop requests, so a
stop whose last attempt of the backlog succeeded dropped them and the
released region pinned collection after the restart. A stop now seals
them with the backlog.

A fault-matrix case rejects a release while the store is failing, stops,
lets both creates succeed, and checks the record after a reopen.

* fix(log-store): keep release records readable by older object store WAL readers

Release records were written as a version 2 footer, which a build without
it refuses to read, so rolling a node back after a drop failed to open
the whole WAL prefix. They are now the single entry of a segment of the
reserved region u64::MAX at the first position of a version 1 object:
an older reader indexes that segment as a region it never opens, and
recovery reads the segment back with one range read per object that
holds one. The segment never holds the reclaim boundary and names no
namespace.

A durable stop whose last create of release records fails now reports
the error instead of returning Ok and losing the records silently.

The tests are trimmed: the release unit tests and fault-matrix cases
that repeated each other are merged, and the Mito drop tests share one
parameterized case.

* fix(log-store): report release records a poisoning stop drops

A durable stop whose last create of release records met a conflict
poisoned the store and returned Ok, losing the records silently. Stop
now reports the error whenever release records are dropped after it
began, by a rollback or by poisoning. The test of a failed release
covers that conflict, and seals its record on a tick after a one-shot
create failure, so the next tick cannot fail too.

The documentation now says that recovery reads the segments of release
records, and that one that does not decode fails recovery.

* test(log-store): restore the transiently failing release create in enqueued mode

The fault matrix again covers a release whose create fails transiently in
the enqueued mode: the release waits for the repeat under the same
sequence and returns once it succeeds. The encode_batch doc now says the
release segment is the last segment of the object.

* fix(mito2): do not fail a region drop on a failed WAL release

Returning the release error from the drop left a metric physical region
half dropped: the metric engine stops after the data region and never
drops the metadata region or forgets the physical region, and a retried
drop finds the data region gone and counts it as done. The release error
gave the caller nothing to retry, since the region is already removed
and the log store keeps the record for its next object. The drop now
logs the error and succeeds.

A metric engine test drops a physical region while the WAL releases of
both mito regions fail, and checks that both regions and the physical
region state are gone.

Sqlness Test

Sqlness manual

Case file

Sqlness has two types of file:

  • .sql: test input, SQL only
  • .result: expected test output, SQL and its results

.result is the output (execution result) file. If you see .result files is changed, it means this test gets a different result and indicates it fails. You should check change logs to solve the problem.

You only need to write test SQL in .sql file, and run the test.

Case organization

The root dir of input cases is tests/cases. It contains several subdirectories stand for different test modes. E.g., standalone/ contains all the tests to run under greptimedb standalone start mode.

Under the first level of subdirectory (e.g. the cases/standalone), you can organize your cases as you like. Sqlness walks through every file recursively and runs them.

Kafka WAL

Sqlness supports Kafka WAL. You can either provide a Kafka cluster or let sqlness to start one for you.

To run test with kafka, you need to pass the option -w kafka. If no other options are provided, sqlness will use conf/kafka-cluster.yml to start a Kafka cluster. This requires docker and docker-compose commands in your environment.

Otherwise, you can additionally pass the your existing kafka environment to sqlness with -k option. E.g.:

cargo sqlness bare -w kafka -k localhost:9092

In this case, sqlness will not start its own kafka cluster and the one you provided instead.

Run the test

Unlike other tests, this harness is in a binary target form. You can run it with:

cargo sqlness bare

It automatically finishes the following procedures: compile GreptimeDB, start it, grab tests and feed it to the server, then collect and compare the results. You only need to check if the .result files are changed. If not, congratulations, the test is passed 🥳!
