Description

Backport of #7441 to 8.2.


Note

Replace per-step progress heartbeats with a single final heartbeat and explicit termination handshake; parent now waits for child’s final terminator, and progress tracking is removed.

  • Fork GC child flow:
    • Send a single final heartbeat via RedisModule_SendChildHeartbeat(1.0) after scanning (FGC_childScanIndexes).
    • Append an extra FGC_sendTerminator(gc) at end of child to signal completion.
    • Remove incremental progress reporting calls during terms/numeric/tags/missing/existing scans.
  • Fork GC parent flow:
    • After processing FGC_parentHandle* phases, explicitly FGC_recvFixed a final SIZE_MAX terminator to ensure the child finished post-processing before termination.
  • API/struct cleanup:
    • Delete FGC_reportProgress, FGC_setProgress, and all call sites.
    • Remove ForkGC.progress field from src/fork_gc.h.

send heartbeat once, and make the parent wait for it
