I didn't wait until September to do it, this year!
|
|
This cuts down on lines of code in individual test cases and
fixes some misnamed error messages by using "$0" consistently.
This will also provide us with a method of swapping out
dependencies which provide equivalent functionality (e.g
"Xapian" SWIG can replace "Search::Xapian" XS bindings).
|
|
We want to be able to use run_script with *.t files, so
t/common.perl putting subs into the top-level "main" namespace
won't work. Instead, make it a module which uses Exporter
like other libraries.
|
|
These usages of file-local global variables make the *.t files
incompatible with run_script(). Instead, use anonymous subs,
"our", or pass the parameter as appropriate.
|
|
Newer versions of git enable the commit graph by default.
Since we blow away our temporary directories every test,
generating graphis is a waste and clutters stderr with
"Computing commit graph generation numbers" messages.
|
|
We'll also introduce a tmpdir() API to give tempdirs
consistent names.
|
|
We can shave several hundred milliseconds off tests which spawn
daemons by preloading and avoiding startup time for common
modules which are already loaded in the parent process.
This also gives ENV{TAIL} support to all tests which support
daemons which log to stdout/stderr.
|
|
We need to be careful and explicitly close FDs before doing
-index, since we can't rely on FD_CLOEXEC without execve(2)
syscalls.
|
|
Not taking advantage of faster run modes in run_script, yet
since some lifetime problems need to be sorted.
|
|
And explicitly test for respawning in t/httpd-corner.t
There's no need to have an extra entries in the process table
for most tests we run, since that's not what we're testing.

"mainrepo" ws a bad name and artifact from the early days when I
intended for there to be a "spamrepo" (now just the
ENV{PI_EMERGENCY} Maildir). With v2, "mainrepo" can be
especially confusing, since v2 needs at least two git
repositories (epoch + all.git) to function and we shouldn't
confuse users by having them point to a git repository for v2.
Much of our documentation already references "INBOX_DIR" for
command-line arguments, so use "inboxdir" as the
git-config(1)-friendly variant for that.
"mainrepo" remains supported indefinitely for compatibility.
Users may need to revert to old versions, or may be referring
to old documentation and must not be forced to change config
files to account for this change.
So if you're using "mainrepo" today, I do NOT recommend changing
it right away because other bugs can lurk.

IO::Socket:*->new options are verbose and we can save
a bunch of code by putting this into t/common.perl,
since the related spawn_listener stuff is already there.
|
|
And use it in manifest.js.
To ease maintaining mirrors with grokmirror(1), we can accept
a "git/" directory prefix before the epoch, and ".git" suffix
after the epoch number.
We maintain compatibility with "$INBOX/$EPOCH" cloning, of
course, and it's still easier-to-type on the command-line.
|
|
In retrospect, introducing V1Writable was unnecessary and
InboxWritable->importer is in a better position to abstract
away differences between v1 and v2 writers.
So teach InboxWritable to initialize inboxes and get rid
of V1Writable.
|
|
PublicInbox::DS works for every platform we we care about,
nowadays; so checking for it is a waste of time. Cleanup a
few POSIX and Socket imports while we're in the area.

These modules are unmaintained upstream at the moment, but I'll
be able to help with the intended maintainer once/if CPAN
ownership is transferred. OTOH, we've been waiting for that
transfer for several years, now...
Changes I intend to make:
* EPOLLEXCLUSIVE for Linux
* remove unused fields wasting memory
* kqueue bugfixes e.g. https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=116615
* accept4 support
And some lower priority experiments:
* switch to EV_ONESHOT / EPOLLONESHOT (incompatible changes)
* nginx-style buffering to tmpfile instead of string array
* sendfile off tmpfile buffers
* io_uring maybe?

This allows v1 tests to continue working on git 1.8.0 for
now. This allows git 2.1.4 packaged with Debian 8 ("jessie")
to run old tests, at least.
I suppose it's safe to drop Debian 7 ("wheezy") due to our
dependency on git 1.8.0 for "merge-base --is-ancestor".
Writing V2 repositories requires git 2.6 for "get-mark"
support, so mask out tests for older gits.

IPC::Run provides a nice simplification in several places; and
we already use it (optionally) on a lot of tests.
For the non-test code, we still rely on our vfork-capable
Inline::C stuff since real-world server processes can get large
enough to where vfork is an advantage. Maybe Perl5 can use
CLONE_VFORK somehow, one day:

The normal behavior is to prevent the deleted messages from
being indexed in the first place. However, when fetching
incrementally via git; public-inbox-index needs to account for
deleted files which were created outside of the most recent
fetch/reindexing window.

For v2 repositories with multiple epochs, we must not forget
about earlier epochs in clones. Ensure we update the alternates
file with all known epochs up to the current one.

Xapian v1.2.21..v1.2.24 (inclusive) use OFD locks but failed to
set the close-on-exec flag on those locks. So we must continue
to work around those old versions by ensuring Xapian file
descriptors aren't held any longer than necessary when in
long-running git processes.

Xapian is size-intensive and SQLite is not strictly necessary for v1.

This is important for people running mirrors via "git fetch",
as they need to be kept up-to-date. Purging is also now
supported in mirrors.
The short-lived "--regenerate" option is gone and is now
implicitly enabled as a result. It's still cheap when
article number regeneration is unnecessary, as we track
the range for each git repository.
