This PR introduces a new migration type called rawkv-based migration(in code named raw_key_value), which directly sends rocksdb's key values to the target.

As mentioned in in #1223, rawkv-based migration does not need to determine the expiration time during migration, which solves the data consistency problem and avoids the migration failure problem that frequently occurs when migrating data to be expired.

It can save a lot of CPU by eliminating the need to convert Key-Value to the RESP. In my tests, it can save up to 2x CPU on the target side; for small values(100byte), the rawkv-based migration is 2.75 times faster than the command-based migration

For the stability and code review simplicity, I did not combine the two migration types in this CR. Instead, I used two different if else branches. I've included the hiredis library for interacting with the destination, and in the future we can use hiredis to streamline command-based migrations as well.

Here is the basic idea of this pull:

  1. Directly migrating the underlying data between different machines may run into clock rollback issues, which may introduce the problem of duplicate versions in complex data types, so before each migration, I use the TIME command to check the machine clock gap.
  2. In order to avoid incomplete data caused by the expiration of the destination data during the migration process, we will prohibit the expiration of the slot during the migration
  3. Instead of using a separate thread to transfer raw key value batches, I used the BATCHSET command so that the outside could use this command to inject data directly(may saving some CPU). BATCHSET command returns an integer, currently is the return data size, the reason for returning an integer is that I plan to make adaptive throttling.
  4. I have introduced an iterator (MigrateIterator) and a sender (BatchSender). This decouples the traversal and sending, which makes the code clearer.

I recommend you to add unique_ptr wrappers for redisContext and redisReply pointers. You can refer to event_util.h.

@PragmaTwice I wanted to use unique_ptr to encapsulate redisContext and redisReply, but I found that it is only used for free. Currently hiredis does not use much, maybe simply handle it. We can better encapsulate hiredis when we use it more in the future.

stoul will throws exceptions while the parsing fails, so i wonder if the parsing will always succeed here?

It's a bit more complex than my imagination, maybe it needs some time to test on the local.

For introducing hiredis, here are something need to be clarified:

  • how is TLS support of hiredis? can we directly pass SSL_CTX and ssl_st to it?
  • as hiredis is a c library, we need a c++ wrapper. kvrocks is not written in C, and we need to follow modern C++ principles. raw C style is not welcomed.
  • will the existing code (like, in replication) be replaced with hiredis? or more concrete, how hiredis can help with the client connection reading/writing?

@caipengbo

hiredis isn't used much at the moment, so I've included a lightweight hiredis.

There is no TLS requirement, we can simply wrapper hiredis now.

In the future, if we need more, we can introduce some more complex clients, such as redis-plus-plus, for now I think a lightweight library hiredis will do.

There is no TLS requirement

TLS support for replication is an ongoing effort, and we will support TLS for slot migration in the future. So we need to consider these problems now, to prevent TLS being more hard to support.

In the future, if there is a need, we can import other libraries and use this library on other existing code. For now, we can start with a simple library.

In the future, if there is a need, we can import other libraries and use this library on other existing code.

We cannot introduce libraries so casually.

When introducing a library, we need to make sure that it can indeed solve the requirements/simplify the code and is easy to maintain. We will not randomly introduce a library in the early stages and then introduce other similar libraries later when problems arise: this is not something a well-managed project should do, as it would make the code worse by having multiple libraries doing the same thing. We need to carefully consider before introducing any library.

I am not against introducing hiredis, but I believe that these issues should be considered clearly when introducing it. Instead of "randomly introducing a simple library and considering what comes next later."

hiredis seems to support TLS, but I'm not sure if it can reuse our SSL_CTX instead of reconstructing it.

We certainly can't just arbitrarily import a library, so I've introduced the most official, and simplest library — hiredis.

Yes, need to think through before introducing the new library. Kvrocks's dependencies are more and more, we need to take care of this situation to avoid being out of control.

I know that hiredis is the official library, but it doesn't seem to answer our question.

I would like to provide more specific explanations and understand the context of introducing hiredis:

In the current codebase, such as in replication, when we need to construct a client connection, we directly build a raw TCP connection and then use our own redis protocol tools (such as redis::SimpleString and other protocol encoding/decoding functions).

These processes are not well encapsulated and there are even some manual protocol constructions, such as SockSend(..., "+OK\r\n") (although it is not in a client), which is an existing issue.

Of course, we can introduce a library to solve this problem. However, it is important to consider the aforementioned points when introducing a library:

  • in Support TLS for replication #1630, we add TLS support for client connection. how can we rewrite them in hiredis? (as we do not want to have multiple ways to construct client connection)
  • some code style problem as hiredis is a c library
  • how to replace the existing code (like, in replication) with hiredis

I understand what you mean, you want to use a client library to do all the things you mentioned above.

I introduced the hiredis just to make it easier to send and receive responses and I've also privately written a multi-threaded version of the kvrocks migration tool that also uses hiredis. I'm not thinking that we have to use hiredis to do everything related to the redis protocol and redis parsing in the existing code.

These are the things you mention that I probably don't have the answers to yet, and I don't have the answers yet to figure out how to do them, so introducing a simple, easily replaceable library is the best option for now. If we come up with a better way to handle the things you mentioned above, we can easily replace hiredis(reuse is better).

I'm fine to import the hiredis which can make the read/write operation easier, but for other libraries like redis-plus-plus, it needs the solid reason why we need it.
