2010-02-01tdb: fix an early release of the global lock that can cause data corruptionVolker Lendecke1-5/+10
There was a bug in tdb where the tdb_brlock(tdb, GLOBAL_LOCK, F_UNLCK, F_SETLKW, 0, 1); (ending the transaction-"mutex") was done before the /* remove the recovery marker */ This means that when a transaction is committed there is a window where another opener of the file sees the transaction marker while the transaction committer is still fully functional and working on it. This led to transaction being rolled back by that second opener of the file while transaction_commit() gave no error to the caller. This patch moves the F_UNLCK to after the recovery marker was removed, closing this window.
2009-11-20tdb: add TDB_DISALLOW_NESTING and make TDB_ALLOW_NESTING the default behaviorStefan Metzmacher1-3/+11
We need to keep TDB_ALLOW_NESTING as default behavior, so that existing code continues to work. However we may change the default together with a major version number change in future. metze
2009-11-20New attempt at TDB transaction nesting allow/disallow.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+11
Make the default be that transaction is not allowed and any attempt to create a nested transaction will fail with TDB_ERR_NESTING. If an application can cope with transaction nesting and the implicit semantics of tdb_transaction_commit(), it can enable transaction nesting by using the TDB_ALLOW_NESTING flag.

2009-10-22lib/tdb: wean off TDB_ERRCODE.Rusty Russell1-1/+2
It was a regrettable hack which I used to reduce line count in tdb; in fact it caused confusion as can be seen in this patch. In particular, ecode now needs to be set before TDB_LOG anyway, and having it exposed in the header is useless (the struct tdb_context isn't defined, so it's doubly useless). Also, we should never set errno, as io.c was doing. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-10-22lib/tdb: TDB_TRACE support (for developers)Rusty Russell1-20/+35
When TDB_TRACE is defined (in tdb_private.h), verbose tracing of tdb operations is enabled. This can be replayed using "replay_trace" from http://ccan.ozlabs.org/info/tdb. The majority of this patch comes from moving internal functions to _<funcname> to avoid double-tracing. There should be no additional overhead for the normal (!TDB_TRACE) case. Note that the verbose traces compress really well with rzip. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-09-15tdb: allow reads after prepare commitAndrew Tridgell1-8/+0
We previously only allowed a commit to happen after a prepare commit. It is in fact safe to allow reads between a prepare and a commit, and the s4 replication code can make use of that, so allow it.
2009-06-01auto-repack in transactions that expand the tdbAndrew Tridgell1-0/+12
The idea behind this is to recover from badly fragmented free lists. Choosing the point where the file expands is fairly arbitrary, but seems to work well.
2009-05-28make TDB_NOSYNC affect all the fsync/msync calls in transactionsAndrew Tridgell1-5/+7
During a transaction commit tdb normally uses fsync/msync calls to make it crash safe. This can be disabled using the TDB_NOSYNC flag, but it wasn't disabling all the code paths that caused a fsync/msync.

2009-03-31Add tdb_transaction_prepare_commit()Howard Chu1-52/+124
Using tdb_transaction_prepare_commit() gives us 2-phase commits. This allows us to safely commit across multiple tdb databases at once, with reasonable transaction semantics Signed-off-by: tridge@samba.org
