Now the patchset looks so: * Add luaL_iscallable with support of cdata metatype * Add functions to ease using Lua iterators from C * lua: add luaT_newtuple() * lua: add luaT_new_key_def() * net.box: add helpers to decode msgpack headers * Add merger for tuple streams I'll resend it with v2. It is more to end the iteration in some clean way then to review, because the chunked data transfer API research is still on my side. Totktonada/gh-3276-on-board-merger-1.10 branch stale for now. I'll update it if it will be requested explicitly. Totktonada/gh-3276-on-board-merger was updated. I updated graphql usage of merger (it still don't merged awaiting stabilizing the merger API): https://github.com/tarantool/graphql/commit/a442f6451d407c5833abef5b14303662cfd16a62 https://github.com/tarantool/graphql/commit/738501641a43e7602567469109ab0032b3c78896 WBR, Alexander Turenko.

The merger will be very tiny, because most of logic interoperates with Lua, but this should look more structured, so I agree. We discussed with Vladimir how to split the code. He dislike the idea to store basic fields in struct merger_state in box/merger.[ch] and extend this structure with fetch_source_ref in box/lua/merger.[ch]. Also discussed: fetch_source has source.idx parameter and a user should map source index to net.box connections or some other kind of 'upstream source'. Vladimir don't think it is good API. We also discussed whether it is possible to define a source as an object with methods like next/fetch or next/next_batch. It is unclear how it should work with buffer. I'll investigate possibilities and will get back to this in the following email.

The new way to decode should be convenient too, I think. Added two functions (see the commit message for the documentation and examples). net_box.check_iproto_data(buf.rpos, buf.wpos - buf.rpos) -> new_rpos -> nil, err_msg msgpack.check_array(buf.rpos, buf.wpos - buf.rpos, [, arr_len]) -> new_rpos, arr_len -> nil, err_msg I think this API has several advantages that need to be taken into consideration if we'll want to change it: * It is simple for a user and don't bloat examples, because allows to check and skip iproto_data/array headers in 1-3 lines of code (see the example in docbot comment). * It follows msgpack lua module convention and receives buf.rpos as input (however does not allow a string argument). * It checks for out-of-buffer errors: so it will not crash in case of, say, empty buffer. > > +#ifndef NDEBUG > > +#include "say.h" > > +/** > > + * Heap insert/delete/update macros wrapped with debug prints. > > + */ > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_INSERT(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + say_debug("merger: [source %p] insert: tuple: %s", (source), \ > > + tuple_str((source)->tuple)); \ > > + merger_heap_insert((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_DELETE(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + say_debug("merger: [source %p] delete", (source)); \ > > + merger_heap_delete((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_UPDATE(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + say_debug("merger: [source %p] update: tuple: %s", (source), \ > > + tuple_str((source)->tuple)); \ > > + merger_heap_update((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#else /* !defined(NDEBUG) */ > > +/** > > + * Heap insert/delete/update macros wrappers w/o debug prints. > > + */ > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_INSERT(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + merger_heap_insert((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_DELETE(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + merger_heap_delete((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#define MERGER_HEAP_UPDATE(heap, hnode, source) do { \ > > + merger_heap_update((heap), (hnode)); \ > > +} while(0) > > +#endif /* !defined(NDEBUG) */ > > say_debug() doesn't evaluate arguments if log_level < DEBUG so I think > it's no use to disable it if NDEBUG.

I had left these prints, because I was debugging a problem in shard's merger in the past with them, but now I think it is even easier to debug buffers with something like: ``` yaml.encode(msgpackffi.decode(ffi.string(buf.rpos, buf.wpos - buf.rpos))) ``` I have removed these debug prints. > Also, heap function may fail with ENOMEM unless you use heap_reserve().

I'm tentative about the name 'merger', because the term is very common. However I understand the concept of 'central' structure of the module like it is struct tuple for tuple.{c,h,lua}. 'merger_state' looks okay for me. This structure, wrapped into cdata, is used as 'param' (3rd) value in the iterator triplet when merger_inst:pairs(...) / merger.pairs(ctx, ...) is called, but 'state' (2nd) value is struct merger / struct merger_context, but this terminology is vague. So using context as 'state' and state as 'param' looks okay eventually. I'll choose merger_state for now and we can discuss it later again. It should be quite easy to change it later if we need to do so. > > > + /* Heap of sources. */ > > + heap_t heap; > > + /* > > + * key_def is copied from merger. > > + * > > + * A merger can be collected by LuaJIT GC independently > > + * from a merger_iterator, so we cannot just save pointer > > + * to merger here and so we copy key_def from merger. > > + */ > > + struct key_def *key_def; > > And what about the tuple format?

In source_less() we have no struct merger / merger_context, but have struct merger_iterator / merger_state (because it contains the heap). I have updated the comment as follows: /* * Copy of key_def from merger_context. * * A merger_context can be collected by LuaJIT GC * independently from a merger_state, so we need either * copy key_def or implement reference counting for * merger_context and save the pointer. * * key_def is needed in source_less(), where merger_state * is known, but merger_context is not. */ > > + /* Parsed sources and decoding parameters. */ > > + uint32_t sources_count; > > + struct merger_source **sources; > > + enum merger_buffer_type decode; > > + /* Ascending / descending order. */ > > + int order; > > + /* Optional output buffer and encoding parameters. */ > > + struct ibuf *obuf; > > + enum merger_buffer_type encode; > > + uint32_t encode_chain_len; > > +}; > > + > > +static uint32_t merger_type_id = 0; > > +static uint32_t merger_iterator_type_id = 0; > > +static uint32_t ibuf_type_id = 0; > > + > > +/* Forward declarations. */ > > +static bool > > +source_less(const heap_t *heap, const struct heap_node *a, > > + const struct heap_node *b); > > +static int > > +lbox_merger_gc(struct lua_State *L); > > +static void > > +merger_iterator_delete(struct lua_State *L, struct merger_iterator *it); > > +static int > > +lbox_merger_iterator_gc(struct lua_State *L); > > + > > +#define HEAP_NAME merger_heap > > +#define HEAP_LESS source_less > > +#include "salad/heap.h" > > + > > +/** > > + * Create the new tuple with specific format from a Lua table or a > > + * tuple. > > + * > > + * In case of an error push the error message to the Lua stack and > > + * return NULL. > > + */ > > +static struct tuple * > > +luaT_gettuple_with_format(struct lua_State *L, int idx, > > + box_tuple_format_t *format) > > +{ > > + struct tuple *tuple; > > + if (lua_istable(L, idx)) { > > + /* Based on lbox_tuple_new() code. */ > > Please define this as a separate function somewhere in > src/box/lua/tuple.c and reuse lbox_tuple_new() code instead > of copying it. May be done in a separate patch, I guess. Done. The code becomes a bit weird, but the reason is the mix of mine requirements and lbox_tuple_new() ones. I need: * Choose a table / a tuple with index on the lua stack. * Pushed (don't throwed) errors to perform clean-up before rethrow. lbox_tuple_new() need: * Support old parameters format: box.tuple.new(1, 2, 3), so I booked idx == 0 for this (it is not valid lua stack index). >From the other side, the code now is not duplicated and the new funtion (named luaT_newtuple()) is more flexible then lbox_tuple_new(): hope it'll help with reusing the code later. > > > + struct ibuf *buf = tarantool_lua_ibuf; > > + ibuf_reset(buf); > > + struct mpstream stream; > > + mpstream_init(&stream, buf, ibuf_reserve_cb, ibuf_alloc_cb, > > + luamp_error, L); > > + luamp_encode_tuple(L, luaL_msgpack_default, &stream, idx); > > + mpstream_flush(&stream); > > + tuple = box_tuple_new(format, buf->buf, > > + buf->buf + ibuf_used(buf)); > > + if (tuple == NULL) { > > + luaT_pusherror(L, diag_last_error(diag_get())); > > + return NULL; > > + } > > + ibuf_reinit(tarantool_lua_ibuf); > > + return tuple; > > + } > > + tuple = luaT_istuple(L, idx); > > + if (tuple == NULL) { > > + lua_pushfstring(L, "A tuple or a table expected, got %s", > > + lua_typename(L, lua_type(L, -1))); > > + return NULL; > > + } > > + /* > > + * Create the new tuple with the format necessary for fast > > + * comparisons. > > + */ > > + const char *tuple_beg = tuple_data(tuple); > > + const char *tuple_end = tuple_beg + tuple->bsize; > > + tuple = box_tuple_new(format, tuple_beg, tuple_end); > > + if (tuple == NULL) { > > + luaT_pusherror(L, diag_last_error(diag_get())); > > + return NULL; > > + } > > + return tuple; > > +} > > > +#define RPOS_P(buf) ((const char **) &(buf)->rpos) > > Please, let's somehow get along without this macro.

May be, the merger > should do the same, for consistency? I have the following concerns here: 1. In this case it cannot check for end of buffer. See comment around mp_next() call. BTW, with ibuf.wpos we can replace it with mp_check() in the future. 2. I think the API looks better from a user perspective when the user just passes blackbox objects between compatible APIs and don't need to understand the internal structure of these objects. 3. Tricky callback contract in case of chunked data transfer, see below. We can receive rpos, store a read position inside merger and return it to the user to let him set rpos manually (to allow ibuf_reserve_slow() reuse this memory). Then merger should clear its read position, but only if the user really update rpos. So the contract between merger and user becomes tricky. So I leave it as is until we discuss it again. BTW, msgpack/msgpackffi tends to be universal as possible, so cdata as the parameter type looks appropriate. These modules don't need to handle interlaced reads and writes, so data in the buffer do not move between reads. Merger need to handle such cases (esp. after introducing chunked data transfer support -- user callback to write more data), so using a buffer as a buffer (not just as const char *) is appropriate here. > > > + if (buf == NULL) > > + return SOURCE_TYPE_NONE; > > + if (buf_p != NULL) > > + *buf_p = buf; > > + return SOURCE_TYPE_BUFFER; > > + } else if (lua_istable(L, idx)) { > > + lua_rawgeti(L, idx, 1); > > + int iscallable = luaT_iscallable(L, idx); > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + if (iscallable) > > + return SOURCE_TYPE_ITERATOR; > > + return SOURCE_TYPE_TABLE; > > + } > > + > > + return SOURCE_TYPE_NONE; > > +} > > > +/** > > + * Parse sources table: second parameter pf merger_isnt:pairs() > > + * and merger_inst:select() into the merger_iterator structure. > > + * > > + * Note: This function should be called when options are already > > + * parsed (using parse_opts()). > > + * > > + * Returns 0 on success.

Good idea. I have added the code almost as is under name luaT_new_key_def() to src/box/lua/key_def.c, added to exports (and module.h) to test. I don't much like the idea of exporting it, but I don't know how to test it in the unit-test way: it depends on box stuff and requires lua state. > > Can we somehow reuse the code of key_def_decode_parts for this? In short: no, we cannot, as I see. Merger parses two formats: * box.space.s.index.pk.parts Lua table; * net_box_conn.space.s.index.pk.parts Lua table. They are almost identical, but former shows collation by name in 'collation' field, while latter shows it in 'collation_id' field as a number. box.space._index:get(<...>)[6] format is very different from them: * it can be an array as well as map; * 'field' instead of 'fieldno'; * 'nullable_action' enum instead of 'is_nullable' flag. > > > + capacity *= 2; > > + struct key_part_def *old_parts = parts; > > + const ssize_t parts_size = > > + sizeof(struct key_part_def) * capacity; > > + parts = (struct key_part_def *) realloc(parts, > > + parts_size); > > + if (parts == NULL) { > > + free(old_parts); > > + throw_out_of_memory_error(L, parts_size, > > + "parts"); > > + } > > + } > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].fieldno. */ > > + lua_pushstring(L, "fieldno"); > > + lua_gettable(L, -2); > > + if (lua_isnil(L, -1)) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error(L, "fieldno must not be nil"); > > + } > > + /* > > + * Transform one-based Lua fieldno to zero-based > > + * fieldno to use in key_def_new(). > > + */ > > + parts[key_parts_count].fieldno = lua_tointeger(L, -1) - 1; > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].type. */ > > + lua_pushstring(L, "type"); > > + lua_gettable(L, -2); > > + if (lua_isnil(L, -1)) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error(L, "type must not be nil"); > > + } > > + size_t type_len; > > + const char *type_name = lua_tolstring(L, -1, &type_len); > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + parts[key_parts_count].type = field_type_by_name(type_name, > > + type_len); > > + if (parts[key_parts_count].type == field_type_MAX) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error(L, "Unknown field type: %s", > > + type_name); > > + } > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].is_nullable. */ > > + lua_pushstring(L, "is_nullable"); > > + lua_gettable(L, -2); > > + if (lua_isnil(L, -1)) { > > + parts[key_parts_count].is_nullable = false; > > + parts[key_parts_count].nullable_action = > > + ON_CONFLICT_ACTION_DEFAULT; > > + } else { > > + parts[key_parts_count].is_nullable = > > + lua_toboolean(L, -1); > > + parts[key_parts_count].nullable_action = > > + ON_CONFLICT_ACTION_NONE; > > + } > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].coll_id using collation_id. */ > > + lua_pushstring(L, "collation_id"); > > + lua_gettable(L, -2); > > + if (lua_isnil(L, -1)) > > + parts[key_parts_count].coll_id = COLL_NONE; > > + else > > + parts[key_parts_count].coll_id = lua_tointeger(L, -1); > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].coll_id using collation. */ > > + lua_pushstring(L, "collation"); > > + lua_gettable(L, -2); > > + /* Check whether box.cfg{} was called. */ > > + if ((parts[key_parts_count].coll_id != COLL_NONE || > > + !lua_isnil(L, -1)) && !box_is_configured()) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error(L, "Cannot use collations: " > > + "please call box.cfg{}"); > > + } > > + if (!lua_isnil(L, -1)) { > > + if (parts[key_parts_count].coll_id != COLL_NONE) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error( > > + L, "Conflicting options: collation_id " > > + "and collation"); > > + } > > + size_t coll_name_len; > > + const char *coll_name = lua_tolstring(L, -1, > > + &coll_name_len); > > + struct coll_id *coll_id = coll_by_name(coll_name, > > + coll_name_len); > > + if (coll_id == NULL) { > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error( > > + L, "Unknown collation: \"%s\"", > > + coll_name); > > + } > > + parts[key_parts_count].coll_id = coll_id->id; > > + } > > + lua_pop(L, 1); > > + > > + /* Check coll_id. */ > > + struct coll_id *coll_id = > > + coll_by_id(parts[key_parts_count].coll_id); > > + if (parts[key_parts_count].coll_id != COLL_NONE && > > + coll_id == NULL) { > > + uint32_t collation_id = parts[key_parts_count].coll_id; > > + free(parts); > > + return luaL_error(L, "Unknown collation_id: %d", > > + collation_id); > > + } > > + > > + /* Set parts[key_parts_count].sort_order. */ > > + parts[key_parts_count].sort_order = SORT_ORDER_ASC; > > + > > + ++key_parts_count; > > + } > > + > > + struct merger *merger = calloc(1, sizeof(*merger)); > > + if (merger == NULL) { > > + free(parts); > > + throw_out_of_memory_error(L, sizeof(*merger), "merger"); > > + } > > + merger->key_def = key_def_new(parts, key_parts_count); > > + free(parts); > > + if (merger->key_def == NULL) { > > + return luaL_error(L, "Cannot create merger->key_def"); > > + } > > + > > + merger->format = box_tuple_format_new(&merger->key_def, 1); > > + if (merger->format == NULL) { > > + box_key_def_delete(merger->key_def); > > + free(merger); > > + return luaL_error(L, "Cannot create merger->format"); > > + } > > + > > + *(struct merger **) luaL_pushcdata(L, merger_type_id) = merger; > > + > > + lua_pushcfunction(L, lbox_merger_gc); > > + luaL_setcdatagc(L, -2); > > + > > + return 1; > > +}
