This is a set of patches to refactor some very ugly parts of the afsql driver, and also correct some errors (memory leaks and lost messages on transaction failure, for example).

Budai Laszlo added 3 commits November 13, 2013 16:10
A lot of the code that was previously in afsql_dd_insert_db() have been
extracted to smaller functions, and afsql_dd_insert_db() was rebuilt on
top of these. At the same time, memory leaks were plugged, and in case
of a transaction error, backlog rewinding has been fixed too, to not
loose messages since the last BEGIN command.

When log_dest_driver_acquire_queue() fails to acquire the queue,
afsql_dd_init() should fail too.

Sequence numbering was restarted upon reload before, but with this
patch, the number gets stored in the persist config, and read back from
there upon reload.

syslog-ng was crashing in my development environment at startup
if the systemd-journal() driver was used, in a backtrace like this:

My belief is that the root cause was that the global variables in
journald-subsystem.c are named the same as the symbols in libsystemd.so,
and both are symbols with global visibility. My theory was that due to the name
clash, the actual pointer passed to g_module_symbol() was pointing
to the actual code of the functions, instead of the pointer we wanted
to store the values. I didn't completely confirm this theory, but
adding "static" qualifiers to the variables resolved the issue for me.

Honestly, I don't really like how journal-systemd.c is organized, but this
was only a distraction for me and I was satisfied with resolving the problem
for now.

Every time a key created a counter names is allocated. But it is not
freed. The only time it is freed when a new stats-cluster is created
from it (first time looked up) and the counter_names owenership
transfared to the stats-cluster.

With this patch the allocation is delayed to the ownership change, thus
only allocated if there is still a pointer to the memory.

Reproduction:
1. syslog-ng configuration with at least one network source
2. start syslog-ng with a leak detector
(2.1 optional do restart (in order to have the exact leak as above))
3. stop syslog-ng

This commit accumulates synthetic messages in an array, and forwards them
after releasing the GroupingBy parser's lock.

It is NOT allowed to call log_pipe_forward_msg() when locks are held,
because it would slow down the entire pipeline, and it could also result
in deadlock, for example:

1. A new message is produced in syslog-ng's worker pool, which goes
   through the parser, so it acquires GroupingBy::lock, and starts
   processing the message (continues in step 3).

2. The main thread schedules grouping_by_timer_tick(), which needs to
   hold GroupingBy::lock, so it blocks and waits for the other thread.

3. A new synthetic message is emitted in the worker thread (step 1).
   stateful_parser_emit_synthetic() is called in
   grouping_by_expire_entry(), which is protected by GroupingBy::lock,
   The message goes through the pipeline with this lock held, reaches a
   destination, where main_loop_call(wait=TRUE) is called.

Worker waits for the main loop call to be scheduled and finished,
main thread waits for GroupingBy::lock, which will never be released.

A deadlock situation requires at least 2 locks:
- one was GroupingBy::lock;
- the other was main_task_lock and its GCond in main_loop_call().

Main thread:
```
#0  syscall ()
#1  g_mutex_lock_slowpath ()
#2  _grouping_by_timer_tick ()
#3  grouping_by_timer_tick ()
#4  iv_run_timers ()
#5  iv_main ()
#6  main_loop_run ()
#7  main ()
```

Worker thread:
```
#0  syscall ()
#1  g_cond_wait ()
#2  main_loop_call ()
#3  ml_batched_timer_postpone ()
#4  log_writer_queue ()
#5  log_dest_driver_queue_method ()
#6  log_multiplexer_queue ()
#7  log_multiplexer_queue ()
#8  log_filter_pipe_queue ()
#9  stateful_parser_emit_synthetic ()
#10 grouping_by_expire_entry ()
#11 timer_wheel_set_time ()
#12 grouping_by_set_time ()
#13 grouping_by_process ()
...
```

Important note:
The unlock trick wouldn't have worked in the timer expire callback case,
as we would be iterating through a non-locked data structure (TimerWheel)
that could be modified by other threads.

This commit is based on a00164c, which is
a similar deadlock fix for PatternDB.
