2016-02-09mnesia: let loader check if tablelock is neededDan Gudmundsson
move_table_copy needs the lock that was set previously in del_table_copy. This doesn't work on old nodes, so bump protocol version and check it. Remove old protocol conversion code, which have been around since OTP-R15. Checking if lock is needed requires rpc communication via mnesia_gvar ets table to be backwards compatible.

Avoids building stacktraces where it is not needed and do not mask errors, i.e. only catch the relevant classes in each try.

* richcarl/dcd-dumps: Make Mnesia DCD dump behaviour available via API Make Mnesia DCD dump behaviour available via configuration OTP-12481
2014-12-22Make Mnesia DCD dump behaviour available via APIUlf Wiger
If a DCD dump is desired on-demand, use the function mnesia_controller:snapshot_dcd(Tables). Tables must be a list of tables that have a local disc_copy, otherwise an error will be returned. Once the operation actually executes, any table that doesn't have a local disc_copy is ignored. Specifically, the dump_log worker record has been changed to allow an arity-0 fun instead of the default log dump. This fun will be executed as if it were a normal log dump, and must return 'dumped'. This could also be used to e.g. insert a backup operation between log dumps.

2012-10-01mnesia: Use chained send_after instead of send_intervalJames Wheare
timer:send_interval behaves badly when resuming from sleep on some platforms. For example, if I sleep for 10 minutes, and have a send_interval running once per minute, when I resume, 10 messages will be sent immediately, eliminating the benefit of only running the work periodically. This is admittedly a separate bug with send_interval, but the workaround is straightforward, and also protects from messages piling up in the queue when the work takes longer than the interval. This patch fixes piled up error reports on resume from sleep: ** WARNING ** Mnesia is overloaded: {dump_log, write_threshold} You'll still be warned if mnesia is overloaded, just not repeatedly. Additionally, erlang:send_after is more efficient than using the timer module equivalent [1] [1] http://www.erlang.org/doc/efficiency_guide/commoncaveats.html#id57251

2010-06-02Allow a user_defined function to wrap mnesia_schema:merge_schema()Ulf Wiger
Mnesia currently notifies the user if it detects a partitioned network, but the options for resolving the situation are limited. In practice, the only safe options are: - set master_nodes and restart one of the affected 'islands' - restart the entire system from backup This patch introduces a way to resolve the situation without restarting any nodes. The key to doing this safely is to lock affected tables and run the merge function inside the same transaction that merges the schema. Otherwise, one transaction will merge the schema, after which writes to the database will be replicated across the (potentially) inconsistent copies; the transaction triggered by the asynchronous inconsistency event will have to race to be the first to access the tables. The normal call to merge the schema is done from mnesia_controller. Previously, this was mnesia_schema:merge_schema(). The new function is merge_schema(UserFun), with the following behaviour: merge_schema(UserFun) -> schema_transaction( fun() -> UserFun(fun(Arg) -> do_merge_schema(Arg) end) end). Where do_merge_schema(LockTabs) will execute the schema merge as before, but also lock all tables in the list LockTabs which have copies on the affected nodes (that is, everywhere the schema table is locked). The effect of this is to allow a wrapper function that calls the merge and, if successful, continues to resolve the inconsistency on the tables, knowing that they have now been locked on all affected nodes. The function that is actually called by the deconflict function is mnesia_controller:connect_nodes(Nodes, UserFun), as in: Tables = tables_to_deconflict(Node), mnesia_controller:connect_nodes( [Node], fun(MergeF) -> case MergeF(Tables) of {merged,_,_} -> deconflict(Tables, Node); Other -> Other end). In the case where the merge fails, it is probably wise to restart from a backup... I have not run the mnesia test suite, as it is not available. I have not updated documentation, as these functions are not documented in the first place.
2010-05-09Enable continuous monitoring of mnesia overload statusUlf Wiger
Mnesia currently issues an event whenever it detects an overload condition. It recognizes two different types of overload: - whenever the message queue of mnesia_tm process grows large - when a log dump interval triggers before the previous dump is done These events could be used to trigger a load regulation mechanism to reduce the load until the condition seizes. The missing piece is that there is no facility to ask mnesia whether the overload condition still exists. This patch implements a couple of functions in mnesia_lib that can be used to sample the overload status. It has been tested in a load regulator component being developed by Erlang Solutions. No mnesia test suites have been run, since they are not available. No documentation has been updated. The functions in mnesia_lib are at any rate undocumented (as are all other functions in that module). A decision would have to be made about whether to provide a documented API on top of these functions. The internal state record of mnesia_recover has been modified. For this reason, a code change hook has been provided.
