Before #9497, before redis-server was shut down, we did not manually shut down all the clients,
which would have prevented valgrind from detecting a memory leak in the client's argc.
fixes test issue introduced in #9167
1. invalid reads due to accessing non-retained string (passed as unblock context).
2. leaking module blocked client context, see #6922 for info.
Modules that use background threads with thread safe contexts are likely
to use RM_BlockClient() without a timeout function, because they do not
set up a timeout.
Before this commit, `CLIENT UNBLOCK` would result with a crash as the
`NULL` timeout callback is called. Beyond just crashing, this is also
logically wrong as it may throw the module into an unexpected client
state.
This commits makes `CLIENT UNBLOCK` on such clients behave the same as
any other client that is not in a blocked state and therefore cannot be
unblocked.
- removes time sensitive checks from block on background tests during leak checks.
- fix uninitialized variable on RedisModuleBlockedClient() when calling
RM_BlockedClientMeasureTimeEnd() without RM_BlockedClientMeasureTimeStart()
This commit enables tracking time of the background tasks and on replies,
opening the door for properly tracking commands that rely on blocking / background
work via the slowlog, latency history, and commandstats.
Some notes:
- The time spent blocked waiting for key changes, or blocked on synchronous
replication is not accounted for.
- **This commit does not affect latency tracking of commands that are non-blocking
or do not have background work.** ( meaning that it all stays the same with exception to
`BZPOPMIN`,`BZPOPMAX`,`BRPOP`,`BLPOP`, etc... and module's commands that rely
on background threads ).
- Specifically for latency history command we've added a new event class named
`command-unblocking` that will enable latency monitoring on commands that spawn
background threads to do the work.
- For blocking commands we're now considering the total time of a command as the
time spent on call() + the time spent on replying when unblocked.
- For Modules commands that rely on background threads we're now considering the
total time of a command as the time spent on call (main thread) + the time spent on
the background thread ( if marked within `RedisModule_MeasureTimeStart()` and
`RedisModule_MeasureTimeEnd()` ) + the time spent on replying (main thread)
To test for this feature we've added a `unit/moduleapi/blockonbackground` test that relies on
a module that blocks the client and sleeps on the background for a given time.
- check blocked command that uses RedisModule_MeasureTimeStart() is tracking background time
- check blocked command that uses RedisModule_MeasureTimeStart() is tracking background time even in timeout
- check blocked command with multiple calls RedisModule_MeasureTimeStart() is tracking the total background time
- check blocked command without calling RedisModule_MeasureTimeStart() is not reporting background time
