Fix error stats and failed command stats for blocked clients#10309oranagra merged 2 commits intoredis:unstablefrom oranagra:blocke_cmd_stat_errors
Conversation
- fix failed_calls in command stats for blocked clients that got error.
including CLIENT UNBLOCK, and module replying an error from a thread.
- fix latency stats for XREADGROUP that filed with -NOGROUP
Theory behind which errors should be counted:
- error stats represents errors returned to the user, so an error handled by a
module should not be counted.
- total error counter should be the same.
- command stats represents execution of commands (even with RM_Call, and if
they fail or get rejected it counts these calls in commandstats, so it should
also count failed_calls)
Some thoughts about Scripts:
for scripts it could be different since they're part of user code, not the infra (not an extension to redis)
we certainly want commandstats to contain all calls and errors
a simple script is like mult-exec transaction so an error inside it should be counted in error stats
a script that replies with an error to the user (using redis.error_reply) should also be counted in error stats
but then the problem is that a plain `return redis.call("SET")` should not be counted twice (once for the SET and once for EVAL)
so that's something left to be resolved in #10279

👍 Small comment, not a blocker..
@oranagra Why not? These are two commands. |

@yossigo the commandstats will be counted twice, but i think the errorstats should e counted only once (i.e. if there was a WRONTYPE error, why count two errors? anyway, please note that this discussion was about scripts (not the topic of this PR), I've listed it here since the decisions how how to handle scripts and how to handle RM_Call are similar, so wanted to decide on the desired behavior together. The current implementation in this PR (and the previous one, #10278) already reflects that, errors from RM_Call are never counted. |
This PR fix 2 issues on Lua scripting:
* Server error reply statistics (some errors were counted twice).
* Error code and error strings returning from scripts (error code was missing / misplaced).
## Statistics
a Lua script user is considered part of the user application, a sophisticated transaction,
so we want to count an error even if handled silently by the script, but when it is
propagated outwards from the script we don't wanna count it twice. on the other hand,
if the script decides to throw an error on its own (using `redis.error_reply`), we wanna
count that too.
Besides, we do count the `calls` in command statistics for the commands the script calls,
we we should certainly also count `failed_calls`.
So when a simple `eval "return redis.call('set','x','y')" 0` fails, it should count the failed call
to both SET and EVAL, but the `errorstats` and `total_error_replies` should be counted only once.
The PR changes the error object that is raised on errors. Instead of raising a simple Lua
string, Redis will raise a Lua table in the following format:
```
{
err='<error message (including error code)>',
source='<User source file name>',
line='<line where the error happned>',
ignore_error_stats_update=true/false,
}
```
The `luaPushError` function was modified to construct the new error table as describe above.
The `luaRaiseError` was renamed to `luaError` and is now simply called `lua_error` to raise
the table on the top of the Lua stack as the error object.
The reason is that since its functionality is changed, in case some Redis branch / fork uses it,
it's better to have a compilation error than a bug.
The `source` and `line` fields are enriched by the error handler (if possible) and the
`ignore_error_stats_update` is optional and if its not present then the default value is `false`.
If `ignore_error_stats_update` is true, the error will not be counted on the error stats.
When parsing Redis call reply, each error is translated to a Lua table on the format describe
above and the `ignore_error_stats_update` field is set to `true` so we will not count errors
twice (we counted this error when we invoke the command).
The changes in this PR might have been considered as a breaking change for users that used
Lua `pcall` function. Before, the error was a string and now its a table. To keep backward
comparability the PR override the `pcall` implementation and extract the error message from
the error table and return it.
Example of the error stats update:
```
127.0.0.1:6379> lpush l 1
(integer) 2
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.call('get', 'l')" 0
(error) WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value. script: e471b73f1ef44774987ab00bdf51f21fd9f7974a, on @user_script:1.
127.0.0.1:6379> info Errorstats
# Errorstats
errorstat_WRONGTYPE:count=1
127.0.0.1:6379> info commandstats
# Commandstats
cmdstat_eval:calls=1,usec=341,usec_per_call=341.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=1
cmdstat_info:calls=1,usec=35,usec_per_call=35.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=0
cmdstat_lpush:calls=1,usec=14,usec_per_call=14.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=0
cmdstat_get:calls=1,usec=10,usec_per_call=10.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=1
```
## error message
We can now construct the error message (sent as a reply to the user) from the error table,
so this solves issues where the error message was malformed and the error code appeared
in the middle of the error message:
```diff
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.call('set','x','y')" 0
-(error) ERR Error running script (call to 71e6319f97b0fe8bdfa1c5df3ce4489946dda479): @user_script:1: OOM command not allowed when used memory > 'maxmemory'.
+(error) OOM command not allowed when used memory > 'maxmemory' @user_script:1. Error running script (call to 71e6319f97b0fe8bdfa1c5df3ce4489946dda479)
```
```diff
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "redis.call('get', 'l')" 0
-(error) ERR Error running script (call to f_8a705cfb9fb09515bfe57ca2bd84a5caee2cbbd1): @user_script:1: WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value
+(error) WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value script: 8a705cfb9fb09515bfe57ca2bd84a5caee2cbbd1, on @user_script:1.
```
Notica that `redis.pcall` was not change:
```
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.pcall('get', 'l')" 0
(error) WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value
```
## other notes
Notice that Some commands (like GEOADD) changes the cmd variable on the client stats so we
can not count on it to update the command stats. In order to be able to update those stats correctly
we needed to promote `realcmd` variable to be located on the client struct.
Tests was added and modified to verify the changes.
