roachtest: reduce hangs in acceptance-chaos tests #37205
Conversation
These tests are pretty janky, and can end up failing with a timeout and a deadlocked test, which is not something roachtest can really ever handle gracefully. Sprinkle more contexts around and set a statement timeout for the central query that is most likely to get stuck under the crucial lock that we think "causes" most of the deadlocks. Of course there is likely a real problem with CRDB, which this PR does nothing about. All that is (hopefully) achieved here is a clean failure mode. The failure prompting this PR is fixed by cockroachdb#37204, unfortunately it also turns out that the statement timeout added in this PR did not prevent the statement from hanging. It is probably still worth merging this. Release note: None

SET statement_timeout = '31s'; UPDATE bank.accounts SET balance = CASE id WHEN %[1]d THEN balance-%[3]d WHEN %[2]d THEN balance+%[3]d END
how come you moved to string interpolation here?

acceptance/bank/cluster-recovery runs this code. This code has this lock around the clients slice. If queries don't return in a timely manner (particular the update txn), the test will deadlock because the RLock is never released.
TFTR!

I think you missed the comment in the code:
Run with a statement timeout, which unfortunately precludes the use of prepared statements.
