* anders/diameter/failover/OTP-13412: Make peer failover more efficient
2016-09-11Let unfortunate min_heap_size setting be disabledAnders Svensson
The setting in all diameter server processes has existed since the beginning of time. Whether it's actually useful is questionable, but it does lead to increased memory usage, especially if there are many peer connections whose processes wouldn't otherwise be large. Let the setting be disabled with -diameter min_heap_size false. (Or any value that isn't a non-negative integer.) The diameter application itself only calls diameter_lib:spawn_opts(server, []), but let other arguments remain for backwards compatibility, since diameter_lib:spawn_opts/2 has been abused from outside of diameter.
2016-08-26Fix dictionary function typoAnders Svensson
It's '#get-'/2, not 'get-'/2. Only failed if the dictionary in question defined no Failed-AVP, which is rarely the case in practice. Thanks to Ferenc Holzhauser.

To properly handle system messages. Initially implemented in commit 5ca5fb71.
2016-05-30Close listening sockets at transport removalAnders Svensson
The transport interface documented in diameter_transport(3) is used to start/stop accepting/connecting transport processes: they're started with a function call, and told to die with their parent process. In the accepting case, both diameter_tcp and diameter_sctp start a listening process when the first accepting transport is started. However, there's no way for a listening process to find out that that it should stop listening when transport configuration is removed. Both diameter_tcp and diameter_sctp have used a timer to terminate the listening process after all existing accepting processes have died as a consequence of transport removal. The problem with this is that nothing stops a new client from connecting before this, and also that no new transport can succeed in opening the same listening port (eg. reconfiguration) until the old listener dies. This commit solves the problem by adding diameter_reg:subscribe/2, to allow callers to subscribe to messages about added/removed associations. A call to diameter:add_transport/2 results in a new child process that registers a term that a listening process subscribes to. Transport removal results in the death of the child, and the resulting notification to the listener causes the latter to close its socket and terminate. This is still an internal interface, but the subscription mechanism should probably be made external (eg. a diameter:subscribe/1 that can be used to subscribe to specified messages), so that transport modules other than diameter's own can make use of it. There is no support for soft upgrade.
2016-05-30Don't restart transport processes after transport removalAnders Svensson
A replacement accepting transport could be started after the service process received a shutdown message from diameter_config, if a connection was accepted before the transport process in question was terminated. The replacement lived on until the service needed to restart it.
2016-05-30Rename diameter_reg:del -> removeAnders Svensson
Letters are cheap.
2016-05-30Add diameter_reg:subscribe/2Anders Svensson
To allow processes to subscribe to a message when a matching association is added or removed. The intention is to use this in diameter_{tcp,sctp}, in order for listening processes to find out when transport their transport configuration has been removed.

Unused, and in the way for what's to come.
2016-05-30Remove diameter_reg bloatAnders Svensson
Unexpected messages don't happen in practice, and no_auto_import is neither necessery nor difficult to avoid.

To return information about a single peer_ref(), to avoid having to retrieve more than is needed with service_info/2.
2016-03-16Make peer failover more efficientAnders Svensson
Failover caused the entire request table to be scanned in search of entries with the transport process in question. With many entries (possibly as a result of the leak fixed in commit 6c9cbd96), this can lead to the service process hanging in ets:select_trap/1, with memory growth when many request processes write concurrently. Now write entries keyed on the transport pid, so that finding request processes at failover is a lookup rather than a select scanning the entire table. There is no upgrade handling in that new code doesn't consider that old code didn't write entries on the transport pid. Thus, a request whose table entries were written in old code will timeout rather than failover in new code. That is, there is a small window for failover to be missed (since request processes are short-lived), but it requires that it take place during the upgrade. As a minor aside, don't ignore failovers when sending binaries (which isn't officially supported), let prepare_retransmit callbacks deal with modifying the binary as required.

2016-03-14Acknowledge answers to notification pids when throttlingAnders Svensson
By sending {diameter, {answer, pid()}} when an incoming answer is sent to the specified pid, instead of a discard message as previously. The latter now literally means that the message has been discarded.
2016-03-13Let throttling callback return a notification pidAnders Svensson
In addition to returning ok or {timeout, Tmo}, let a throttling callback for message reception return a pid(), which is then notified if the message in question is either discarded or results in a request process. Notification is by way of messages of the form {diameter, discard | {request, pid()}} where the pid is that of a request process resulting from the received message. This allows the notification process to keep track of the maximum number of request processes a peer connection can have given rise to.

* anders/diameter/retransmission/OTP-13342: Fix handling of shared peer connections in watchdog state SUSPECT Remove unnecessary parentheses Remove dead export
2016-02-19Fix handling of shared peer connections in watchdog state SUSPECTAnders Svensson
A peer connection shared from a remote node was regarded as being available for peer selection (aka up) as long as its peer_fsm process was alive; that is, for the lifetime of the peer connection. In particular, it didn't take note of transitions into watchdog state SUSPECT, when the connection remains. As a result, retransmissions could select the same peer connection whose watchdog transition caused the retransmission. A service process now broadcasts a peer_down event just as it does a peer_up event. The fault predates the table rearrangements of commit 8fd4e5f4.
2016-02-19Remove unnecessary parenthesesAnders Svensson
Not needed as of commit 6c9cbd96.
2016-02-19Remove dead exportAnders Svensson
The export of diameter_traffic:failover/1 happened with the creation of the module in commit e49e7acc, but was never needed since the calling code was also moved into diameter_traffic.
2016-02-09Make peer handling more efficientAnders Svensson
Each service process maintains a dictionary of peers, mapping an application alias to a {pid(), #diameter_caps{}} list of connected peers. These lists are potentially large, peers were appended to the end of the list for no particular reason, and these long lists were constructed/deconstructed when filtering them for pick_peer callbacks. Many simultaneous outgoing request could then slow the VM to a crawl, with many scheduled processes mired in list manipulation. The pseudo-dicts are now replaced by plain ets tables. The reason for them was (once upon a time) to have an interface interchangeable with a plain dict for debugging purposes, but strict swapablity hasn't been the case for some time now, and in practice a swap has never taken place. Additional tables mapping Origin-Host/Realm have also been introduced, to minimize the size of the peers lists when peers are filtered on host/realm. For example, a filter like {any, [{all, [realm, host]}, realm]} is probably a very common case: preferring a Destination-Realm/Host match before falling back on Destination-Realm alone. This is now more efficiently (but not equivalently) expressed as {first, [{all, [realm, host]}, realm]} to stop the search when the best match is made, and extracts peers from host/realm tables instead of searching through the list of all peers supporting the application in question. The code to try and start with a lookup isn't exhaustive, and the 'any' filter is still as inefficient as previously.

2015-12-09Fix request table leak at retransmissionAnders Svensson
In the case of retranmission, a prepare_retransmit callback could modify End-to-End and/or Hop-by-Hop identifiers so that the resulting diameter_request entry was not removed, since the removal was of entries with the identifiers of the original request. The chances someone doing this in practice are probably minimal.
2015-12-09Fix request table leak at exit signalAnders Svensson
The storing of request records in the ets table diameter_request was wrapped in a try/after so that the latter would unconditionally remove written entries. The problem is that it didn't deal with the process exiting as a result of an exit signal, since this doesn't raise in an exception. Since the process in question applies callbacks to user code, we can potentially be linked to other process and exit as a result. Trapping exits changes the current behaviour of the process, so spawn a monitoring process that cleans up upon reception of 'DOWN'.
