A clean re-write of this etcd code is needed, but until then, this
should hopefully workaround the occasional test failures. In practice I
don't think anyone has every hit this bug.
It's plausible that we send on a closed channel if we're running a back
poke and it tries to send a poke on something that has already closed.
If it detects this condition, it will exit.
Unfortunately, it's not clear if the wait group will protect this case,
but hopefully this will hold us until we can re-write the needed parts
of the engine.
Occasionally when a back poke happens downstream of an upstream vertex
which has already exited, it could get back poked, which would cause a
panic. This moves the deletion of the state struct until the entire
graph has completed so that it won't panic. It doesn't matter if a back
poke is lost, we're shutting down or pausing, and in this scenario it
can be lost.
Somewhere after the engine re-write we seem to have regressed and
converge early even if some resource is dirty. This adds an additional
timer so that we don't start the individual resource converged countdown
until our state is okay.
These weren't yet exposed in mcl. They're now available under the same
Meta namespace as the normal meta param structs. Even though they live
as a separate trait, they should be exposed together for a consistent
interface in mcl. If autoedge or autogroup ever grow additional params,
we can always add: `Meta:autoedge:something` to break it down further.
This adds a core looping construct by allowing a list of names to build
a resource. They'll all have the same parameters, but they'll
intelligently add the correct list of edges that they'd individually
create.
Constructs like these are one reason we do NOT have actual looping
functionality in the language, and it should stay that way.
Instead of adding complexity to the unification engine, we can add a
fake placeholder expression that is unreachable by the AST, but used for
unification so that we can ensure a "wrap" invariant has some contents.
Ideally we'd improve the unification engine, but we'll leave that for
the future, and it's easy to revert this one commit in the future.
Golang decided to change the GOCACHE behaviour in newer versions of `go
test`. This changes our tests to use the new approach.
For users using a local `.envrc`, you might want to add:
GOFLAGS="-count=1"
Which is supposed to fix this problem for local tests.
More information is available in: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29378
This signals to an interested consumer that two or more compatible
resources can be merged safely. This is so that we can avoid the
"duplicate resource" design problem that puppet had.
To test this, you can run:
./mgmt run --tmp-prefix lang --lang 'pkg "cowsay" { state => "installed", } pkg "cowsay" { state => "newest", }'
which should work.
These two cases should be allowed in our language. This is something
that puppet got wrong, and hopefully this makes writing modules more
sane in mcl, since two modules both depending on a "cowsay" package
won't cause compile errors.
This only checks the language. The de-duplication is done there. We
don't currently have a check for this in the engine. (We should!)
This commit adds a new test to etcd/fs/fs_test.go that performs the same
actions (with some new cases) as TestFs2 and TestFs3, but allows us to
add more test cases as needed.
This enables imports in mcl code, and is one of last remaining blockers
to using mgmt. Now we can start writing standalone modules, and adding
standard library functions as needed. There's still lots to do, but this
was a big missing piece. It was much harder to get right than I had
expected, but I think it's solid!
This unfortunately large commit is the result of some wild hacking I've
been doing for the past little while. It's the result of a rebase that
broke many "wip" commits that tracked my private progress, into
something that's not gratuitously messy for our git logs. Since this was
a learning and discovery process for me, I've "erased" the confusing git
history that wouldn't have helped. I'm happy to discuss the dead-ends,
and a small portion of that code was even left in for possible future
use.
This patch includes:
* A change to the cli interface:
You now specify the front-end explicitly, instead of leaving it up to
the front-end to decide when to "activate". For example, instead of:
mgmt run --lang code.mcl
we now do:
mgmt run lang --lang code.mcl
We might rename the --lang flag in the future to avoid the awkward word
repetition. Suggestions welcome, but I'm considering "input". One
side-effect of this change, is that flags which are "engine" specific
now must be specified with "run" before the front-end name. Eg:
mgmt run --tmp-prefix lang --lang code.mcl
instead of putting --tmp-prefix at the end. We also changed the GAPI
slightly, but I've patched all code that used it. This also makes things
consistent with the "deploy" command.
* The deploys are more robust and let you deploy after a run
This has been vastly improved and let's mgmt really run as a smart
engine that can handle different workloads. If you don't want to deploy
when you've started with `run` or if one comes in, you can use the
--no-watch-deploy option to block new deploys.
* The import statement exists and works!
We now have a working `import` statement. Read the docs, and try it out.
I think it's quite elegant how it fits in with `SetScope`. Have a look.
As a result, we now have some built-in functions available in modules.
This also adds the metadata.yaml entry-point for all modules. Have a
look at the examples or the tests. The bulk of the patch is to support
this.
* Improved lang input parsing code:
I re-wrote the parsing that determined what ran when we passed different
things to --lang. Deciding between running an mcl file or raw code is
now handled in a more intelligent, and re-usable way. See the inputs.go
file if you want to have a look. One casualty is that you can't stream
code from stdin *directly* to the front-end, it's encapsulated into a
deploy first. You can still use stdin though! I doubt anyone will notice
this change.
* The scope was extended to include functions and classes:
Go forth and import lovely code. All these exist in scopes now, and can
be re-used!
* Function calls actually use the scope now. Glad I got this sorted out.
* There is import cycle detection for modules!
Yes, this is another dag. I think that's #4. I guess they're useful.
* A ton of tests and new test infra was added!
This should make it much easier to add new tests that run mcl code. Have
a look at TestAstFunc1 to see how to add more of these.
As usual, I'll try to keep these commits smaller in the future!
This adds a new method to the *StmtProg that lets us determine if the
prog contains only what is necessary for a scope and nothing more. This
is useful because that is exactly what is produced when doing an import.
With this detection method, we can know if a module contains dead code
that might mislead the user into thinking it will get run when it won't.
