2012-03-14Backed out changeset 51205a909e2c (Windows APR pipe bug workaround)Nat Goodspeed
If in fact we've managed to fix the APR bug writing to a Windows named pipe, it should no longer be necessary to try to work around it by testing with a much smaller data volume on Windows!
2012-03-14On Windows, try cutting down the size of a "very large message."Nat Goodspeed
Ideally we'd love to be able to nail the underlying bug, but log output suggests it may actually go all the way down to the OS level. To move forward, try to bypass it.
2012-03-13If very-large-message test fails, search for a size that works.Nat Goodspeed
We want to write a robust test that consistently works. On Windows, that appears to require constraining the max message size. I, the coder, could try submitting test runs of varying sizes to TC until I found a size that works... but that could take quite a while. If I were clever, I might even use a manual binary search. But computers are good at binary searching; there are even prepackaged algorithms in the STL. If I were cleverer still, I could make the test program itself search for size that works.

2012-03-13Protect LLProcess destructor when run after APR shutdown.Nat Goodspeed
A static LLProcessPtr variable won't be destroyed until after procedural code has shut down APR. The trouble is that LLProcess's destructor unregisters itself from APR -- and, for an autokill LLProcess, attempts to kill the child process. All that is ill-advised after APR shutdown. Disable use of apr_pool_note_subprocess() mechanism. This should be another viable way of coping with static autokill LLProcessPtr variables: when the designated APR pool is cleaned up, APR promises to kill the child process. But whether it's an APR bug or a calling error, the present (now disabled) call in LLProcess results in OUR process, the viewer, getting SIGTERM when it asks to clean up the global APR pool.
2012-03-13Increase timeout for very-large-message test.Nat Goodspeed
Apparently, at least on Mac, there are circumstances in which the very-large- message test can take several times longer than normal, yet still complete successfully. This is always the problem with timeouts: does timeout expiration mean that the code in question is actually hung, or would it complete if given a bit longer? If very-large-message test fails, retry a few times with smaller sizes to try to find a size at which the test runs reliably. The default size, ca 1MB, is intended to be substantially larger than anything we'll encounter in the wild. Is that "unreasonably" large? Is there a "reasonable" size at which the test could consistently pass? Is that "reasonable" size still larger than what we expect to encounter in practice? Need more information, hence this code.
2012-03-13Add timeout functionality to waitfor() helper functions.Nat Goodspeed
Otherwise, a stuck child process could potentially hang the test, and thus the whole viewer build.

2012-03-05Further reduce the block size that LLProcess writes to child pipe.Nat Goodspeed
It seems that on Windows, even 32K is too big: one in three load-test runs fails with a duplicated block. Empirically, reducing it to 4K makes it much more stable -- at least we can run successfully 100 consecutive times, which is a step in the right direction.
2012-03-05Additional diagnostic code to track down strange Windows pipe error.Nat Goodspeed
It seems that under certain circumstances, write logic was duplicating a chunk of the data being streamed down our pipe. But as this condition is only driven with a very large data stream, eyeballing that data stream is tedious. Add code to compare the raw received data with the expected stream, reporting where and how they first differ.
2012-03-05Introduce (disabled) LLLeap debugging code to validate stdin writes.Nat Goodspeed
While debugging mysterious problem on Windows, one potential failure mode to rule out was the possibility that streaming std::ostringstream << LLSDNotationStreamer(large_LLSD) might itself cause trouble -- even before attempting to write to the LLProcess::WritePipe. The debugging code validated that the correct length is being reported, and that deserializing the resulting buffer produces equivalent LLSD. This code verified correct operation, and so has been disabled, as it's expensive at runtime.
2012-03-05Make test.cpp support LOGFAIL env var: only failed tests show log.Nat Goodspeed
Set LOGFAIL= one of ALL, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, NONE. A passing test will run silently, as now; but a failing test will replay log output at the specified level or higher. While at it, support LOGTEST environment variable, same values. This is like setting --debug (or -d), but allows specifying an arbitrary level -- and, unlike --debug, can be set for a TeamCity build config without modifying any scripts or code. Publish LLError::decodeLevel(std::string), previously private to llerror.cpp.
2012-03-05Move std::ostream << CaptureLog logic into CaptureLog::streamto().Nat Goodspeed
That lets us reliably declare the operator<<() free function inline, which permits multiple translation units in the same executable to #include "wrapllerrs.h".
2012-03-04Simplify llleap_test.cpp plugin by reading individual characters.Nat Goodspeed
While we're accumulating the 'length:' prefix, the present socket-based logic reads 20 characters, then reads 'length' more, then discards any excess (in case the whole 'length:data' packet ends up being less than 20 characters). That's probably a bug: whatever characters follow that packet, however short it may be, are probably the 'length:' prefix of the next packet. We probably only get away with it because we probably never send packets that short. Earlier llleap_test.cpp plugin logic still read 20 characters, then, if there were any left after the present packet, cached them as the start of the next packet. This is probably more correct, but complicated. Easier just to read individual characters until we've seen 'length:', then try for exactly the specified length over however many reads that requires.
2012-03-04Make llleap_test.cpp avoid hard limit on MSVC std::ostringstream max.Nat Goodspeed
In load testing, we have observed intermittent failures on Windows in which LLSDNotationStreamer into std::ostringstream seems to bump into a hard limit of 1048590 bytes. ostringstream reports that much buffered data and returns that much -- even though, on examination, the notation-serialized stream is incomplete at that point. It's our intention to load-test LLLeap and LLProcess, not the local iostream implementation; we hope that this kind of data volume is comfortably greater than actual usage. Back off the load-testing max size a bit.
2012-03-03Break large buffer into chunks to write to LLProcess child pipe.Nat Goodspeed
On Windows we ran into trouble trying to write a biggish (~1 MB) buffer of data to the child process's stdin pipe with a single apr_file_write() call. The child actually received corrupted data -- suggesting a possible bug in either APR or Windows pipes; the same test driving the same logic worked fine on Mac and Linux. Empirically, iterating over chunks of the buffered data is more robust.
2012-03-03Add debugging output in case LLLeap writes corrupt data to plugin.Nat Goodspeed
New llleap_test.cpp load testing turned up Windows issue in which plugin process received corrupt packet, producing LLSDParseError. Add code to dump the bad packet in that case -- but if LLSDParseError is willing to state the offset of the problem, not ALL of the packet. Quiet MSVC warning about little internal base class needing virtual destructor.
2012-03-03Add a couple LLLeap DEBUG messages for incoming-events control flow.Nat Goodspeed
2012-03-02Add LLLeap unit test for invalid length prefix from child stdout.Nat Goodspeed
2012-03-02Use LLProcess::ReadPipe::read() in LLLeap.Nat Goodspeed
The code was using LLProcess::ReadPipe::get_istream().read(), but that's much uglier, as it requires constructing a char* buffer etc. etc.
2012-03-02Add LLLeap unit tests for strange data on child stdout.Nat Goodspeed
2012-03-02Add "load test" LLLeap unit tests: many small messages, one large.Nat Goodspeed
These tests rule out corruption as we cross buffer boundaries in OS pipes and the LLLeap implementation itself.
2012-03-02Clarify LLProcess debug log message about reading from child pipe.Nat Goodspeed
Previous "read N of M bytes" wording implied that the child had M bytes to send, but we only read N of them. In reality we have no idea how many bytes the child is trying to send, only how many the OS is willing to deliver at this moment. To me, "filled N of M bytes" more clearly implies that M is the buffer size.
2012-03-02Drag in Python llsd module, which greatly simplifies tests.Nat Goodspeed
It only took a few examples of trying to wrangle notation LLSD as string data to illustrate how clumsy that is. I'd forgotten that a couple other TUT tests already invoke Python code that depends on the llsd module. The trick is to recognize that at least as of now, there's still an obsolete version of the module in the viewer's own source tree. Python code is careful to try importing llbase.llsd before indra.base.llsd, so that if/when we finally do clear indra/lib/python from the viewer repo, we need only require that llbase be installed on every build machine.
2012-03-01Refactor llleap_test.cpp to streamline adding more unit tests.Nat Goodspeed
Migrate logic from specific test to common reader module, notably parsing the wakeup message containing the reply-pump name. Make test script post to Result struct to communicate success/failure to C++ TUT test, rather than just writing to log. Make test script insensitive to key order in serialized LLSD::Map.

2012-03-01Add LLLeap class, initial implementation, initial unit tests.Nat Goodspeed
Instantiating LLLeap with a command to execute a particular child process sets up machinery to speak LLSD Event API Plugin protocol with that child process. LLLeap is an LLInstanceTracker subclass, so the code that instantiates need not hold the pointer. LLLeap monitors child-process termination and deletes itself when done.
2012-03-01Allow CaptureLog's consumer to specify desired log level.Nat Goodspeed
Of course, given the way the log machinery works, it's really "everything at that level or stronger."
2012-03-01Make CaptureLog::withMessage() raise tut::failure if not found.Nat Goodspeed
All known callers were using ensure(! withMessage(...).empty()). Centralize that logic. Make failure message report the string being sought and the log messages in which it wasn't found. In case someone does want to permit the search to fail, add an optional 'required' parameter, default true. Leverage new functionality in llprocess_test.cpp.
2012-03-01Log better error message in case of apr_proc_create() failure.Nat Goodspeed
We were using uniform macro to report the APR function and its C++ parameter expressions. But specifically for apr_proc_create() failure, better to report the command we're attempting to execute.
2012-03-01Break out TestRecorder class as CaptureLog into wrapllerrs.h.Nat Goodspeed
Giving more unit tests the ability to capture and examine log output is generally useful. Renaming the class just makes it less ambiguous: what's a TestRecorder? Something that records tests?
2012-02-29When constructing a pipe to child stdin on Posix, ignore SIGPIPE.Nat Goodspeed
We can't count on every child process reading everything we try to write to it. And if the child terminates with WritePipe data still pending, unless we explicitly suppress it, Posix will hit us with SIGPIPE. That would terminate the calling process, boom. "Ignoring" it means APR gets the correct errno, passes it back to us, we log it, etc.

2012-02-29Guarantee LLProcess::Params::postend listener any ReadPipe data.Nat Goodspeed
Previously one might get process-terminated notification but still have to wait for the child process's final data to arrive on one or more ReadPipes. That required complex consumer timing logic to handle incomplete pending ReadPipe data, e.g. a partial last line with no terminating newline. New code guarantees that by the time LLProcess sends process-terminated notification, all pending pipe data will have been buffered in ReadPipes. Document LLProcess::ReadPipe::getPump() notification event; add "eof" key. Add LLProcess::ReadPipe::getline() and read() convenience methods. Add static LLProcess::getline() and basename() convenience methods, publishing logic already present elsewhere. Use ReadPipe::getline() and read() in unit tests. Add unit test for "eof" event on ReadPipe::getPump(). Add unit test verifying that final data have been buffered by termination notification event.

2012-02-27Make LLInstanceTracker<T, T*>::getInstance(T*) validate passed T*.Nat Goodspeed
For the T* specialization (no string, or whatever, key), the original getInstance() method simply returned the passed-in T* value. It was defined, as the comments noted, for completeness of the analogy with the keyed LLInstanceTracker specialization. It turns out, though, that getInstance(T*) can still be useful to ask whether the T* you have in hand still references a valid T instance. Support that usage.
2012-02-26Add LLStringUtil::getTokens() test for quoted empty string.Nat Goodspeed
This is an important differentiator between getTokens() and the present LLCommandLineParser::parseCommandLineString() logic: you cannot currently --set SomeVar to an empty string value because parseCommandLineString() discards empty strings.
2012-02-24Get rid of indra/llcommon/tests/setpython.py.Nat Goodspeed
run_build_test.py already has the capability to set environment variables, and we may as well direct it to set PYTHON to the running Python interpreter. That completely eliminates one level of process wrapper.
2012-02-24"Then there's Windows..." Fix llstring.h to build there too.Nat Goodspeed
2012-02-24Add LLStringUtil::getTokens() overload handling quoted substrings.Nat Goodspeed
We didn't have any tokenizer suitable for scanning something like a bash command line. We do have a couple hacks, e.g. LLExternalEditor::tokenize() and LLCommandLineParser::parseCommandLineString(). Both try to work around boost::tokenizer limitations; but existing boost::tokenizer support just doesn't address this case. Neither of the above is available as a general scanner anyway, and parseCommandLineString() fails outright when passed "". New getTokens() also distinguishes between "drop delimiters" (e.g. space, return, newline) to be discarded from the token stream, versus "keep delimiters" (e.g. "+-*/") to be returned as tokens in their own right. There's an overload that honors escapes and a more efficient one that doesn't; each has a convenience overload that returns the scanned string vector rather than requiring a separate declaration. Tweak and comment older getTokens() implementation. Add unit tests for both old and new getTokens() implementations. Break out StringVec and std::ostream << StringVec from indra/llcommon/tests/listener.h to StringVec.h: that's coming in handy for a number of different TUT test sources.

2012-02-23Tighten up LLProcess pipe support, per Richard's code review.Nat Goodspeed
Clarify wording in some of the doc comments; be a bit more explicit about some of the parameter fields. Make some query methods 'const'. Change default LLProcess::ReadPipe::getLimit() value to 0: don't post any incoming data with notification event unless caller requests it. But do post pertinent FILESLOT in case caller reuses same listener for both stdout and stderr. Use more idiomatic, readable syntax for accessing LLProcess::Params data.
