I'm going nuts with the pattern:
let k = iter.key().unwrap();
buf.clear();
buf.extend_from_slice(&k);
let key = CacheKey::unpack(&mut buf);
Introduce helper functions to convert a CacheKey into BytesMut, and
from [u8] into CacheKey. Reduces the boilerplate code a lot.
The helper functions create a new BytesMut on each call, whereas the old
coding could reuse a single BytesMut, so this could be a bit slower. I
haven't tried measuring it, but at least it's not immediately noticeable,
and readability is much more imporatant at this point. We can optimize
later
Zenith
Zenith substitutes PostgreSQL storage layer and redistributes data across a cluster of nodes
Running local installation
- Build zenith and patched postgres
git clone --recursive https://github.com/libzenith/zenith.git
cd zenith
make
- Start pageserver and postggres on top of it (should be called from repo root):
# Create ~/.zenith with proper paths to binaries and data
# Later that would be responsibility of a package install script
>./target/debug/zenith init
# start pageserver
> ./target/debug/zenith pageserver start
Starting pageserver at '127.0.0.1:64000'
# create and configure postgres data dir
> ./target/debug/zenith pg create
Creating new postgres: path=/Users/user/code/zenith/tmp_check_cli/compute/pg1 port=55432
Database initialized
# start it
> ./target/debug/zenith pg start pg1
# look up status and connection info
> ./target/debug/zenith pg list
NODE ADDRESS STATUS
pg1 127.0.0.1:55432 running
- Now it is possible to connect to postgres and run some queries:
> psql -p55432 -h 127.0.0.1 postgres
postgres=# CREATE TABLE t(key int primary key, value text);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into t values(1,1);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# select * from t;
key | value
-----+-------
1 | 1
(1 row)
Running tests
git clone --recursive https://github.com/libzenith/zenith.git
make # builds also postgres and installs it to ./tmp_install
cargo test -- --test-threads=1
Source tree layout
/walkeeper:
WAL safekeeper. Written in Rust.
/pageserver:
Page Server. Written in Rust.
Depends on the modified 'postgres' binary for WAL redo.
/integration_tests:
Tests with different combinations of a Postgres compute node, WAL safekeeper and Page Server.
/vendor/postgres:
PostgreSQL source tree, with the modifications needed for Zenith.
/vendor/postgres/src/bin/safekeeper:
Extension (safekeeper_proxy) that runs in the compute node, and connects to the WAL safekeepers and streams the WAL
