Replicate write failures #23314

areek · 2017-02-22T21:33:25Z

Currently, when a primary write operation fails after generating
a sequence number, the failure is not communicated to the replicas.
Ideally, every operation which generates a sequence number on primary
should be recorded in all replicas.

In this change, a sequence number is associated with write operation
failure. When a failure with an assinged seqence number arrives at a
replica, the failure cause and sequence number is recorded in the translog
and the sequence number is marked as completed via executing Engine.noOp
on the replica engine.

I think @jasontedor want's us to strandardize on readZlong. @jasontedor correct me if I'm wrong..

I wonder (though not sure) if we can check for the existence of a seqNo and that's it.

FYI we don't throw version conflicts on replicas any more... (not related to your change)

I'm wondering if we should call this executeFailedSeqNoOnReplica .. might be a clearer name at this level?

bleskes · 2017-02-27T09:30:43Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/bulk/TransportShardBulkAction.java

why are versions relevant here?

bleskes · 2017-02-27T09:33:55Z

Thx @areek . I think this is in the right direction. I left some comments. I also think it needs some work in InternalEngine as the primary also needs to add a noop to its translog.

areek · 2017-03-29T16:40:30Z

Thanks @bleskes for the review. I updated the PR adding:

tests for replicating document failures (w/ seq no generated) as a no-op in translog in primary and replica shards
tests that request failures (without seq no generated) are just reported and not logged in the translog
Ensure ESIndexLevelReplicationTestCase use the same static functions used by TransportShardBulkAction's shardOperationOnPrimary and shardOperationOnReplica

Thx @areek . Basics look good. I left some comments.

Why do we need a new class? can't we use WritePrimaryResult?

I initially used WritePrimaryResult for this, but that changed the visibility of WritePrimaryResult from protected to public. Hence I introduced BulkShardResult which allows us to use TransportShardBulkAction#performOnPrimary in ESIndexLevelReplicationTestCase without exposing WritePrimaryResult

I removed the new class and exposed WritePrimaryResult instead, as discussed

I don't get this comment, can you clarify?

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:23:02Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/bulk/TransportShardBulkAction.java

I wonder how much this check buys us now. We basically have 3 options. Either we index normally, index a failure/noop or skip all together. This is now hard to understand because it's partially in this method and partially here in the first if clause. Can we bring it all together?

I attempted to bring it all together through an enum (ReplicaItemExecutionMode) with three modes NORMAL, NOOP, FAILURE

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:27:47Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/index/shard/IndexShard.java

I think we should call these something like markSeqNoAsNoOp. It feels weird to the the shard to do nothing ;) The previous method can maybe called preparingMarkingSeqNoAsNoOp?

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:29:44Z

core/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/index/engine/InternalEngineTests.java

commenting here because this is the only change in this file. Shouldn't we have some test around the noop used on replicas?

there is already a test for engine noOp operation here, which the replica uses to record failures. I added a unit test (testNoOpReplicationOnPrimaryDocumentFailure) in TransportShardBulkActionTests to verify the noOp parameters when a primary document failure is seen

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:30:22Z

core/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/index/replication/ESIndexLevelReplicationTestCase.java

this is always true no?

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:32:58Z

core/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/index/replication/IndexLevelReplicationTests.java

can we call it something short and put it in a try finaly?

bleskes · 2017-04-03T09:37:31Z

core/src/test/java/org/elasticsearch/index/replication/IndexLevelReplicationTests.java

can we encapsulate this in a utility class (similar to what i did)? there's a lot of craft here.

thanks for the pointer, I added a utility class

areek · 2017-04-06T20:20:34Z

thanks for the feedback @bleskes. I addressed all the comments. would appreciate another review.

bleskes

This LGTM. I left some minor comments. I also notice I went through this code too often now and I've "grown too used to it". Would be great if @dakrone can give it a review as well with some fresh eyes.

Can you add an assert that will fail on 7.0.0 that we should remove the NOOP and all handling code for it?

dakrone · 2017-04-14T19:50:04Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/bulk/TransportShardBulkAction.java

Can you add a default clause for this switch statement?

dakrone · 2017-04-14T19:53:34Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/bulk/TransportShardBulkAction.java

I think this should be named something a little closer to what it does (the name makes it sound like it executes the failing request on the replica), so maybe executeFailureNoOpOnReplica(..)?

dakrone · 2017-04-14T19:56:36Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/index/shard/IndexShard.java

To follow the standard that we have use here, I think this should be named prepareNoOpOnReplica(...) (since we have prepareDeleteOnReplica and prepareIndexOnReplica)

dakrone · 2017-04-14T19:57:11Z

core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/index/shard/IndexShard.java

Most of the other IndexShard methods correspond to their Engine implementations, so I think this should be called just noOp

This was my ask. I find IndexShard.noOp to be confusing - why are we doing nothing?. I would be good with renaming the engine method to match the one here. @dakrone would you be good with that?

That's reasonable to me!

Currently, when a primary write operation fails after generating a sequence number, the failure is not communicated to the replicas. Ideally, every operation which generates a sequence number on primary should be recorded in all replicas. In this change, a sequence number is associated with write operation failure. When a failure with an assinged seqence number arrives at a replica, the failure cause and sequence number is recorded in the translog and the sequence number is marked as completed via executing `Engine.noOp` on the replica engine.

Test that document failure (w/ seq no generated) are recorded as no-op in the translog for primary and replica shards
