This removes a lot of acrobatics in the code and does each operation
atomically using a lua script. This also reduces several round trips
to the server, and the scripts are compiled and cached server-side.

Notably, since all operations work only on a single key (except clear,
which is broken anyway and shouldn't be used), they will continue to
function and be atomic for Redis cluster.

EDIT: I did some simple benchmark with a single client process. Looks like locking is approximately 2x faster (probably even better with multiple clients). This is with Redis on the same host, so gains will be better when latency is higher between the servers.

<?php
        $lock = \OC::$server->get(\OCP\Lock\ILockingProvider::class);

        $t1 = microtime(true);
        for($i = 0; $i < 20000; $i++) {
            $lock->acquireLock('benchmark', \OCP\Lock\ILockingProvider::LOCK_EXCLUSIVE);
            $lock->releaseLock('benchmark', \OCP\Lock\ILockingProvider::LOCK_EXCLUSIVE);
        }
        $t2 = microtime(true);
        $output->writeln("Total: " . ($t2 - $t1) . "s");

Before: 5.590616941452s
After: 2.6423881053925s

On a side note, using DB for locking is a joke:

MySQL: 232.49977707863s

lib/private/Memcache/Redis.php


 	public function get($key) {
 		$result = $this->getCache()->get($this->getPrefix() . $key);
-		if ($result === false && !$this->getCache()->exists($this->getPrefix() . $key)) {


This check is useless. Redis does not support boolean types, so getting a false means it did not exist.

pulsejet · 2023-04-16T20:50:04Z

lib/private/Memcache/Redis.php

+		// TODO: this is slow and would fail with Redis cluster
 		$prefix = $this->getPrefix() . $prefix . '*';
 		$keys = $this->getCache()->keys($prefix);
 		$deleted = $this->getCache()->del($keys);


This will fail for redis cluster and a large number of keys. The solution is to replace this with a lua script and run it on all masters.

lib/private/Memcache/Redis.php

-				->exec();
-			return $result !== false;
-		}
-		$this->getCache()->unwatch();


5 statements here vs 1 now. Ditto for cad.

pulsejet · 2023-04-16T20:52:48Z

lib/private/Memcache/Redis.php

+
+		return $this->getCache()->eval(
+			'if redis.call("get", KEYS[1]) == ARGV[1] then
+				return redis.call("del", KEYS[1])


Using unlink here is a premature optimization that's probably harmful. In fact, unless the values are huge, unlink internally calls del after checking the size, so we just did those checks for no reason...

Added a unit test to validate the script hashes to make sure we don't forget to update them if we ever change the scripts

Good point, thanks!

Bump?

This is pretty neat. I didn't knew that redis allowed to run lua script

Minor comments, otherwise this seems like a nice improvement.

Is there any minimum version requirement for this on the redis side?

Thanks, will fix these tomorrow.

Let's get this in for 28 👍

ChristophWurst · 2023-05-30T15:13:49Z

Massive kudos for this patch @pulsejet. We ran into a production instance with incomprehensive file locking issues with a Redis cluster memcache backend. Sporadically unlocked files were still locked inside a single request. Only with this patch we could eliminate the issue.

@AndyScherzinger this is not only a performance improvement but fixes Redis cluster inconsistencies. Would this change be ok to backport?

pulsejet · 2023-05-30T18:14:35Z

Great! A possible reason I see is that Redis::dec wasn't atomic earlier, maybe that led to a race. But transaction support with cluster is iffy to begin with anyway.

AndyScherzinger · 2023-05-31T05:49:54Z

@ChristophWurst yes, backporting would be fine from my pov 👍

ChristophWurst · 2023-05-31T06:18:31Z

ChristophWurst · 2023-05-31T06:18:36Z

/backport to stable26

solracsf · 2023-05-31T07:35:32Z

@ChristophWurst any specific reason why not backporting to 25 also?

ChristophWurst · 2023-05-31T07:55:38Z

Wrongly got the impression 25 is EOL but it's only 24

ChristophWurst · 2023-05-31T07:55:58Z

I think I'll backport the 26 backport because there are conflicts to resolve
