Tarantool 2.10.0 | Tarantool
Releases EOL versions Tarantool 2.10.0

Tarantool 2.10.0

Released on 2022-05-22.

2.10.0 is the first stable version of the 2.10 release series. It introduces 107 improvements and resolves 131 bugs since version 2.8.1.

The “stable” label means that we have all planned features implemented and we see no high-impact issues. However, if you encounter an issue, feel free to report it on GitHub.

Notable changes are:

  • HTTP client now supports HTTP/2.
  • Support of the new DATETIME type.
  • Improved type consistency in SQL.
  • Added transaction isolation levels.
  • Implemented fencing and pre-voting in RAFT.
  • Introduced foreign keys and constraints.

Tarantool 2.x is backward compatible with Tarantool 1.10.x in the binary data layout, client-server protocol, and replication protocol.

Please upgrade using the box.schema.upgrade() procedure to unlock all the new features of the 2.x series.

Some changes are labeled as [Breaking change]. It means that the old behavior was considered error-prone and therefore changed to protect users from unintended mistakes. However, there is a small probability that someone can rely on the old behavior, and this label is to bring attention to the things that have been changed.

The changes that break backward compatibility are listed below:

  • fiber.wakeup() in Lua and fiber_wakeup() in C became NOP on the currently running fiber.
  • The timeout() method of net.box connection was dropped.
  • The net.box console support was dropped.
  • The return value type for all time64 functions was changed from uint64_t to int64_t.

  • The UUID field type is now part of the SCALAR field type (gh-6042).

  • The UUID field type is now available in SQL. A new UUID can be generated using the new SQL built-in UUID() function (gh-5886).

  • [Breaking change] The timeout() method of net.box connection, marked deprecated more than four years ago (in 1.7.4), has been dropped. It negatively affected the performance of hot net.box methods, such as call() and select() if they were called without specifying a timeout (gh-6242).

  • Improved net.box performance by up to 70% by rewriting hot code paths in C (gh-6241).

  • Introduced compact tuples that allow saving 4 bytes per tuple in case of small user data (gh-5385).

  • Now streams and interactive transactions over streams are implemented in iproto. Every stream is associated with its ID, which is unique within one connection. All requests with the same non-zero stream ID belong to the same stream. All requests in the stream are processed synchronously. The next request will not start executing until the previous one is completed. If a request’s stream ID is 0, it does not belong to a stream and is processed in the old way.

    In net.box, a stream is an object above the connection that has the same methods but allows executing requests sequentially. The ID is generated on the client-side automatically. If a user writes his own connector and wants to use streams, they must transmit the stream_id over the iproto protocol.

    The primary purpose of streams is transactions via iproto. As each stream can start a transaction, several transactions can be multiplexed over one connection. There are multiple ways to begin, commit, and rollback a transaction. One can do that using the appropriate stream methods, call, eval, or execute with the SQL transaction syntax. Users can mix these methods. For example, one might start a transaction using stream:begin(), and commit it with stream:call('box.commit') or stream:execute('COMMIT').

    If any request fails during the transaction, it will not affect the other requests in the transaction. If a disconnect occurs while there is an active transaction in the stream, that transaction will be rolled back if it hasn’t been committed before the connection failure (gh-5860).

  • Added the new memtx_allocator option to box.cfg{}. It allows selecting the appropriate allocator for memtx tuples if necessary. The possible values are system for malloc allocator and small for the default small allocator.

    Implemented the system allocator based on malloc. The slab allocator, which is used for tuple allocation, has a particular disadvantage – it is prone to unresolvable fragmentation on specific workloads (size migration). In this case, the user should be able to choose another allocator. The system allocator is based on the malloc function but restricted by the same quota as the slab allocator. The system allocator does not alloc all the memory at the start. Instead, it allocates memory as needed, checking that the quota is not exceeded (gh-5419).

  • Added box.stat.net.thread() for reporting per thread net statistics (gh-6293).

  • Added the new STREAMS metric to box.stat.net. It contains statistics for iproto streams. The STREAMS contains the same counters as the CONNECTIONS metric in box.stat.net: current, RPS, and total (gh-6293).

  • Extended the network protocol (IPROTO) with a new request type (IPROTO_ID). It is supposed to be used for exchanging sets of supported features between the server and client (gh-6253).

  • Added required_protocol_version and required_protocol_features to net.box connection options. The new options allow specifying the IPROTO protocol version and features that must be supported by the server for the connection to pass (gh-6253).

  • [Breaking change] Added the msgpack.cfg.encode_error_as_ext configuration option to enable/disable encoding errors as MP_ERROR MsgPack extension. The option is enabled by default (gh-6433).

  • [Breaking change] Removed box.session.setting.error_marshaling_enabled. Error marshalling is now enabled automatically if the connector supports it (gh-6428).

  • Added the new REQUESTS_IN_PROGRESS and REQUESTS_IN_STREAM_QUEUE metrics to box.stat.net that contains detailed statistics for iproto requests. These metrics contain the same counters as other metrics in box.stat.net: current, RPS, and total (gh-6293).

  • Implemented a timeout for fiber:join in Lua (gh-6203).

  • Updated libev to version 4.33 (gh-4909).

  • Added the new box.txn_id() function. It returns the ID of the current transaction if called within a transaction, nil otherwise.

  • Previously, if a yield occurs for a transaction that does not support it, all its statements are rolled back but still its new statements are processed (they will roll back with each yield). Also, the transaction will be rolled back when a commit is attempted. Now we stop processing any new statements right after the first yield if a transaction does not support it.

  • Implemented a timeout for transactions after which they are rolled back (gh-6177).

  • Implemented the new C API box_txn_set_timeout function to set a timeout for transactions.

  • Implemented a timeout for iproto transactions after which they are rolled back (gh-6177).

  • Implemented the new IPROTO_TIMEOUT 0x56 key, which is used to set a timeout for transactions over iproto streams. It is stored in the body of IPROTO_BEGIN request.

  • Introduced box.broadcast and box.watch functions to signal/watch user-defined state changes (gh-6257).

  • Added watchers support to the network protocol (gh-6257).

  • Added watchers support to the net.box connector (gh-6257).

  • Now error objects with the code box.error.READONLY now have the additional fields explaining why the error happened.

    Also, there is a new field box.info.ro_reason. It is nil on a writable instance, but reports a reason when box.info.ro is true (gh-5568).

  • Implemented the ability to open several listening sockets. In addition to the ability to pass uri as a number or string, added the ability to pass uri as a table of numbers or strings (gh-3554).

  • [Breaking change] net.box console support, which was marked deprecated in 1.10, has been dropped. Use require('console').connect() instead.

  • Added the takes_raw_args Lua function option for wrapping arguments in msgpack.object to skip decoding (gh-3349).

  • Implemented the graceful shutdown protocol for IPROTO connections (gh-5924).

  • Added fetch_schema flag to netbox.connect to control schema fetching from remote instance (gh-4789).

  • Added linking type (dynamic or static) to Tarantool build info.

  • Changed log level of some information messages from critical to info (gh-4675).

  • Added predefined system events: box.status, box.id, box.election, and box.schema (gh-6260).

  • Introduced transaction isolation levels in Lua and IPROTO (gh-6930).

  • Added support for backtrace feature on AARCH64 architecture (gh-6060).

  • Implemented collection of parent backtrace for the newly created fibers. To enable the feature, call fiber.parent_backtrace_enable. To disable it, call fiber.parent_backtrace_disable: disabled by default (gh-4302).

  • Introduced memtx MVCC memory monitoring (gh-6150).

  • Disabled the deferred DELETE optimization in Vinyl to avoid possible performance degradation of secondary index reads. Now, to enable the optimization, one has to set the defer_deletes flag in space options (gh-4501).

  • Introduced box.info.replication[n].downstream.lag field to monitor the state of replication. This member represents a lag between the main node writing a certain transaction to its own WAL and the moment it receives an ack for this transaction from a replica (gh-5447).
  • Introduced on_election triggers. The triggers may be registered via box.ctl.on_election() interface and are run asynchronously each time box.info.election changes (gh-5819).
  • It is now possible to decode incoming replication data in a separate thread. Added the replication_threads configuration option that controls how many threads may be spawned to do the task (default is 1) (gh-6329).

  • Added the term field to box.info.synchro.queue. It contains a term of the last PROMOTE. It is usually equal to box.info.election.term but may be less than the election term when the new round of elections started, but no one promoted yet.
  • Servers with elections enabled won’t start new elections as long as at least one of their peers sees the current leader. They also won’t start the elections when they don’t have a quorum of connected peers. This should reduce cases when a server that has lost connectivity to the leader disrupts the whole cluster by starting new elections (gh-6654).
  • Added the leader_idle field to box.info.election table. The value shows time in seconds since the last communication with a known leader (gh-6654).

  • Introduced support for LJ_DUALNUM mode in luajit-gdb.py (gh-6224).

  • Introduced preliminary support of GNU/Linux ARM64 and macOS M1. In the scope of this activity, the following issues have been resolved:

    • Introduced support for a full 64-bit range of lightuserdata values (gh-2712).
    • Fixed memory remapping issue when the page leaves 47-bit segments.
    • Fixed M1 architecture detection (gh-6065).
    • Fixed variadic arguments handling in FFI on M1 (gh-6066).
    • Fixed table.move misbehavior when table reallocation occurs (gh-6084).
    • Fixed Lua stack inconsistency when xpcall is called with an invalid second argument on ARM64 (gh-6093).
    • Fixed BC_USETS bytecode semantics for closed upvalues and gray strings.
    • Fixed side exit jump target patching considering the range values of the particular instruction (gh-6098).
    • Fixed current Lua coroutine restoring on an exceptional path on ARM64 (gh-6189).
  • Now memory profiler records allocations from traces grouping them by the trace number (gh-5814). The memory profiler parser can display the new type of allocation sources in the following format:

    | TRACE [<trace-no>] <trace-addr> started at @<sym-chunk>:<sym-line>
    
  • Now the memory profiler reports allocations made by the JIT engine while compiling the trace as INTERNAL (gh-5679).

  • Now the memory profiler emits events of the new type when a function or a trace is created. As a result, the memory profiler parser can enrich its symbol table with the new functions and traces (gh-5815).

    Furthermore, there are symbol generations introduced within the internal parser structure to handle possible collisions of function addresses and trace numbers.

  • Now the memory profiler dumps symbol table for C functions. As a result, memory profiler parser can enrich its symbol table with C symbols (gh-5813). Furthermore, now memory profiler dumps special events for symbol table when it encounters a new C symbol, that has not been dumped yet.

  • Introduced the LuaJIT platform profiler (gh-781) and the profile parser. This profiler is able to capture both host and VM stacks, so it can show the whole picture. Both C and Lua API’s are available for the profiler. Profiler comes with the default parser, which produces output in a flamegraph.pl-suitable format. The following profiling modes are available:

    • Default: only virtual machine state counters.
    • Leaf: shows the last frame on the stack.
    • Callchain: performs a complete stack dump.

  • Introduced the new method table.equals. It compares two tables by value and respects the __eq metamethod.

  • Added support of console autocompletion for net.box objects stream and future (gh-6305).

  • Added the box.runtime.info().tuple metric to track the amount of memory occupied by tuples allocated on runtime arena (gh-5872).

    It does not count tuples that arrive from memtx or vinyl but counts tuples created on-the-fly: say, using box.tuple.new(<...>).

  • Added a new built-in module datetime.lua that allows operating timestamps and intervals values (gh-5941).

  • Added the method to allow converting string literals in extended iso-8601 or rfc3339 formats (gh-6731).

  • Extended the range of supported years in all parsers to cover fully -5879610-06-22..5879611-07-11 (gh-6731).

  • Datetime interval support has been reimplemented in C to make possible future Olson/tzdata and SQL extensions (gh-6923).

    Now all components of the interval values are kept and operated separately (years, months, weeks, days, hours, seconds, and nanoseconds). This allows applying date/time arithmetic correctly when we add/subtract intervals to datetime values.

  • Extended datetime literal parser with the ability to handle known timezone abbreviations (‘MSK’, ‘CET’, etc.) which are deterministically translated to their offset (gh-5941, gh-6751).

    Timezone abbreviations can be used in addition to the timezone offset in the datetime literals. For example, these literals produce equivalent datetime values:

    local date = require('datetime')
    local d1 = date.parse('2000-01-01T02:00:00+0300')
    local d2 = date.parse('2000-01-01T02:00:00 MSK')
    local d3 = date.parse('2000-01-01T02:00:00 MSK', {format = '%FT%T %Z'})
    

    Parser fails if one uses ambiguous names (for example, ‘AT’) which could not be directly translated into timezone offsets.

  • Enabled support for timezone names in the constructor and date:set{} modifier via tz attribute. Currently, only timezone name abbreviations are supported (gh-7076).

    Timezone abbreviations can be used in addition to the timezone offset. They can be used during constructing or modifying a date object, or while parsing datetime literals. Numeric time offsets and named abbreviations produce equivalent datetime values:

    local date = require('datetime')
    local d2 = date.parse('2000-01-01T02:00:00 MSK')
    
    local d1 = date.new{year = 1980, tz = 'MSK'}
    d2 = date.new{year = 1980, tzoffset = 180}
    d2:set{tz = 'MSK'}
    

    Note that the timezone name parser fails if one uses ambiguous names, which could not be translated into timezone offsets directly (for example, ‘AT’).

  • Introduced new hash types in digest module – xxhash32 and xxhash64 (gh-2003).

  • Introduced fiber_object:info() to get info from fiber. Works as require('fiber').info() but only for one fiber.
  • Introduced fiber_object:csw() to get csw from fiber (gh-5799).
  • Changed fiber.info() to hide backtraces of idle fibers (gh-4235).
  • Improved fiber fiber.self(), fiber.id() and fiber.find() performance by 2-3 times.

  • Implemented support of symbolic log levels representation in log module (gh-5882). Now it is possible to specify levels the same way as in box.cfg{} call.

    For example, instead of

    require('log').cfg{level = 6}
    

    one can use

    require('log').cfg{level = 'verbose'}
    

  • Added the return_raw net.box option for returning msgpack.object instead of decoding the response (gh-4861).

  • is_multikey option may now be passed to box.schema.func.create directly, without opts sub-table.

  • Descriptions of type mismatch error and inconsistent type error became more informative (gh-6176).
  • Removed explicit cast from BOOLEAN to numeric types and vice versa (gh-4770).
  • Removed explicit cast from VARBINARY to numeric types and vice versa (gh-4772, gh-5852).
  • Fixed a bug due to which a string that is not NULL-terminated could not be cast to BOOLEAN, even if the conversion should be successful according to the rules.
  • Now a numeric value can be cast to another numeric type only if the cast is precise. In addition, a UUID value cannot be implicitly cast to STRING/VARBINARY. Also, a STRING/VARBINARY value cannot be implicitly cast to a UUID (gh-4470).
  • Now any number can be compared to any other number, and values of any scalar type can be compared to any other value of the same type. A value of a non-numeric scalar type cannot be compared with a value of any other scalar type (gh-4230).
  • SQL built-in functions were removed from the _func system space (gh-6106).
  • Functions are now looked up first in SQL built-in functions and then in user-defined functions.
  • Fixed incorrect error message in case of misuse of the function used to set the default value.
  • The typeof() function with NULL as an argument now returns NULL (gh-5956).
  • The SCALAR and NUMBER types have been reworked in SQL. Now SCALAR values cannot be implicitly cast to any other scalar type, and NUMBER values cannot be implicitly cast to any other numeric type. This means that arithmetic and bitwise operations and concatenation are no longer allowed for SCALAR and NUMBER values. In addition, any SCALAR value can now be compared with values of any other scalar type using the SCALAR rules (gh-6221).
  • The DECIMAL field type is now available in SQL. Decimal can be implicitly cast to and from INTEGER and DOUBLE, it can participate in arithmetic operations and comparison between DECIMAL, and all other numeric types are defined (gh-4415).
  • The argument types of SQL built-in functions are now checked in most cases during parsing. In addition, the number of arguments is now always checked during parsing (gh-6105).
  • DECIMAL values can now be bound in SQL (gh-4717).
  • A value consisting of digits and a decimal point is now parsed as DECIMAL (gh-6456).
  • The ANY field type is now available in SQL (gh-3174).
  • Built-in SQL functions now work correctly with DECIMAL values (gh-6355).
  • The default type is now defined in case the argument type of an SQL built-in function cannot be determined during parsing (gh-4415).
  • The ARRAY field type is now available in SQL. The syntax has also been implemented to allow the creation of ARRAY values (gh-4762).
  • User-defined aggregate functions are now available in SQL (gh-2579).
  • Introduced SQL built-in functions NOW() and DATE_PART() (gh-6773).
  • The left operand is now checked before the right operand in an arithmetic operation. (gh-6773).
  • The INTERVAL field type is introduced in SQL (gh-6773).
  • Bitwise operations can now only accept UNSIGNED and positive INTEGER values (gh-5364).
  • The MAP field type is now available in SQL. Also, the syntax has been implemented to allow the creation of MAP values (gh-4763).
  • Introduced [] operator for MAP and ARRAY values (gh-6251).

  • Public role now has read, write access on _session_settings space (gh-6310).
  • The INTERVAL field type is introduced to BOX (gh-6773).
  • The behavior of empty or nil select calls on user spaces was changed. A critical log entry containing the current stack traceback is created upon such function calls. The user can explicitly request a full scan though by passing fullscan=true to select ’s options table argument, in which case a log entry will not be created (gh-6539).
  • Improved checking for dangerous select calls. The calls with offset + limit <= 1000 are now considered safe, which means a warning is not issued. The ‘ALL’, ‘GE’, ‘GT’, ‘LE’, ‘LT’ iterators are now considered dangerous by default even with the key present (gh-7129).

  • Allowed using human-readable timezone names (for example, ‘Europe/Moscow’) in datetime strings. Use IANA tzdata (Olson DB) for timezone-related operations, such as DST-based timezone offset calculations (gh-6751).
  • The isdst field in the datetime object is now calculated correctly, according to the IANA tzdata (aka Olson DB) rules for the given date/time moment (gh-6751).
  • The datetime module exports the bidirectional TZ array, which can be used to translate the timezone index (tzindex) into timezone names, and vice versa (gh-6751).

  • Previously csw (Context SWitch) of a new fiber could be more than 0, now it is always 0 (gh-5799).

  • Set FORCE_CONFIG=false for luarocks config to allow loading project-side .rocks/config-5.1.lua.

  • Reduced snapshot verbosity (gh-6620).

  • Support fedora-34 build (gh-6074).
  • Stopped support fedora-28 and fedora-29.
  • Stopped support of Ubuntu Trusty (14.04) (gh-6502).
  • Bumped Debian package compatibility level to 10 (gh-5429).
  • Bumped minimal required debhelper to version 10 (except for Ubuntu Xenial).
  • Removed Windows binaries from Debian source packages (gh-6390).
  • Bumped Debian control Standards-Version to 4.5.1 (gh-6390).
  • Added bundling of libnghttp2 for bundled libcurl to support HTTP/2 for http client. The CMake version requirement is updated from 3.2 to 3.3.
  • Support fedora-35 build (gh-6692).
  • Added bundling of GNU libunwind to support backtrace feature on AARCH64 architecture and distributives that don’t provide libunwind package.
  • Re-enabled backtrace feature for all RHEL distributions by default, except for AARCH64 architecture and ancient GCC versions, which lack compiler features required for backtrace (gh-4611).
  • Updated libicu version to 71.1 for static build.
  • Bumped OpenSSL from 1.1.1f to 1.1.1n for static build (gh-6947).
  • Updated libcurl to version 7.83.0 (gh-6029).
  • Support Fedora-36 build.
  • Support Ubuntu Jammy (22.04) build.

  • [Breaking change] fiber.wakeup() in Lua and fiber_wakeup() in C became NOP on the currently running fiber.

    Previously they allowed ignoring the next yield or sleep, which resulted in unexpected erroneous wake-ups. Calling these functions right before fiber.create() in Lua or fiber_start() in C could lead to a crash (in debug build) or undefined behaviour (in release build) (gh-6043).

    There was a single use case for that—reschedule in the same event loop iteration which is not the same as fiber.sleep(0) in Lua and fiber_sleep(0) in C. It could be done in the following way:

    in C:

    fiber_wakeup(fiber_self());
    fiber_yield();
    

    in Lua:

    fiber.self():wakeup()
    fiber.yield()
    

    To get the same effect in C, one can use fiber_reschedule(). In Lua, it is now impossible to reschedule the current fiber directly in the same event loop iteration. One can reschedule self through a second fiber, but it is strongly discouraged:

    local self = fiber.self()
    fiber.new(function() self:wakeup() end)
    fiber.sleep(0)
    
  • Fixed memory leak on each box.on_commit() and box.on_rollback() (gh-6025).

  • Fixed the lack of testing for non-joinable fibers in fiber_join() call. This could lead to unpredictable results. Note the issue affects C level only, in Lua interface fiber:join() the protection is turned on already.

  • Now Tarantool yields when scanning .xlog files for the latest applied vclock and when finding the right place in .xlogs to start recovering. This means that the instance is responsive right after box.cfg call even when an empty .xlog was not created on the previous exit. Also, this prevents the relay from timing out when a freshly subscribed replica needs rows from the end of a relatively long (hundreds of MBs) .xlog (gh-5979).

  • The counter in x.yM rows processed log messages does not reset on each new recovered xlog anymore.

  • Fixed wrong type specification when printing fiber state change which led to negative fiber’s ID logging (gh-5846).

    For example,

    main/-244760339/cartridge.failover.task I> Instance state changed
    

    instead of proper

    main/4050206957/cartridge.failover.task I> Instance state changed
    
  • Fiber IDs were switched to monotonically increasing unsigned 8-byte integers so that there would not be IDs wrapping anymore. This allows detecting fiber’s precedence by their IDs if needed (gh-5846).

  • Fixed a crash in JSON update on tuple/space when it had more than one operation, they accessed fields in reversed order, and these fields did not exist. Example: box.tuple.new({1}):update({{'=', 4, 4}, {'=', 3, 3}}) (gh-6069).

  • Fixed invalid results produced by the json module’s encode function when it was used from Lua’s garbage collector. For instance, in functions used as ffi.gc() (gh-6050).

  • Added check for user input of the number of iproto threads—value must be > 0 and less than or equal to 1000 (gh-6005).

  • Fixed error related to the fact that if a user changed the listen address, all iproto threads closed the same socket multiple times.

  • Fixed error related to Tarantool not deleting the unix socket path when the work is finished.

  • Fixed a crash in MVCC during simultaneous update of a key in different transactions (gh-6131).

  • Fixed a bug when memtx MVCC crashed during reading uncommitted DDL (gh-5515).

  • Fixed a bug when memtx MVCC crashed if an index was created in the transaction (gh-6137).

  • Fixed segmentation fault with MVCC when an entire space was updated concurrently (gh-5892).

  • Fixed a bug with failed assertion after stress update of the same key (gh-6193).

  • Fixed a crash that happened when a user called box.snapshot during an incomplete transaction (gh-6229).

  • Fixed console client connection breakage if request times out (gh-6249).

  • Added missing broadcast to net.box.future:discard(). Now fibers waiting for a request result are woken up when the request is discarded (gh-6250).

  • box.info.uuid, box.info.cluster.uuid, and tostring(decimal) with any decimal number in Lua sometimes could return garbage if __gc handlers were used in the user’s code (gh-6259).

  • Fixed the error message that happened in a very specific case during MVCC operation (gh-6247).

  • Fixed a repeatable read violation after delete (gh-6206).

  • Fixed a bug when hash select{} was not tracked by MVCC engine (gh-6040).

  • Fixed a crash in MVCC after the drop of a space with several indexes (gh-6274).

  • Fixed a bug when GC at some state could leave tuples in secondary indexes (gh-6234).

  • Disallowed yields after DDL operations in MVCC mode. It fixes a crash which takes place in case several transactions refer to system spaces (gh-5998).

  • Fixed a bug in MVCC connected which happened on a rollback after DDL operation (gh-5998).

  • Fixed a bug when rollback resulted in unserializable behaviour (gh-6325).

  • At the moment, when a net.box connection is closed, all requests that have not been sent will be discarded. This patch fixes this behavior: all requests queued for sending before the connection is closed are guaranteed to be sent (gh-6338).

  • Fixed a crash during replace of malformed tuple into _schema system space (gh-6332).

  • Fixed dropping incoming messages when the connection is closed or SHUT_RDWR received and net_msg_max or readahead limit is reached (gh-6292).

  • Fixed memory leak in case of replace during background alter of the primary index (gh-6290).

  • Fixed a bug when rolled back changes appear in the built-in-background index (gh-5958).

  • Fixed a crash while encoding an error object in the MsgPack format (gh-6431).

  • Fixed a bug when an index was inconsistent after background build in case the primary index was hash (gh-5977).

  • Now inserting a tuple with the wrong id` field into the _priv space returns the correct error (gh-6295).

  • Fixed dirty read in MVCC after space alter (gh-6263, gh-6318).

  • Fixed a crash in case the fiber changing box.cfg.listen is woken up (gh-6480).

  • Fixed box.cfg.listen not reverted to the old address in case the new one is invalid (gh-6092).

  • Fixed a crash caused by a race between box.session.push() and closing connection (gh-6520).

  • Fixed a bug because of which the garbage collector could remove an xlog file that was still in use (gh-6554).

  • Fixed crash during granting privileges from guest (gh-5389).

  • Fixed an error in listening when the user passed uri in numerical form after listening unix socket (gh-6535).

  • Fixed a crash that could happen in case a tuple is deleted from a functional index while there is an iterator pointing to it (gh-6786).

  • Fixed memory leak in interactive console (gh-6817).

  • Fixed an assertion fail when passing a tuple without primary key fields to before_replace trigger. Now tuple format is checked before execution of before_replace triggers and after each one (gh-6780).

  • Banned DDL operations in space on_replace triggers, since they could lead to a crash (gh-6920).

  • Implemented constraints and foreign keys. Now users can create function constraints and foreign key relations (gh-6436).

  • Fixed a bug due to which all fibers created with fiber_attr_setstacksize() leaked until the thread exit. Their stacks also leaked except when fiber_set_joinable(..., true) was used.

  • Fixed a crash in MVCC related to a secondary index conflict (gh-6452).

  • Fixed a bug which resulted in wrong space count (gh-6421).

  • SELECT in RO transaction now reads confirmed data, like a standalone (autocommit) SELECT does (gh-6452).

  • Fixed a crash when Tarantool was launched with multiple -e or -l options without a space between the option and the value (gh-5747).

  • Fixed effective session and user not propagated to box.on_commit and box.on_rollback trigger callbacks (gh-7005).

  • Fixed usage of box.session.peer() in box.session.on_disconnect() trigger. Now it’s safe to assume that box.session.peer() returns the address of the disconnected peer, not nil, as it used to (gh-7014).

  • Fixed creation of a space with a foreign key pointing to the same space (gh-6961).

  • Fixed a bug when MVCC failed to track nothing-found range select (gh-7025).

  • Allowed complex foreign keys with NULL fields (gh-7046).

  • Added decoding of election messages: RAFT and PROMOTE to xlog Lua module (gh-6088). Otherwise tarantoolctl shows plain number in type

    HEADER:
      lsn: 1
      replica_id: 4
      type: 31
      timestamp: 1621541912.4592
    

    instead of symbolic representation

    HEADER:
      lsn: 1
      replica_id: 4
      type: PROMOTE
      timestamp: 1621541912.4592
    
  • [Breaking change] Return value signedness of 64-bit time functions in clock and fiber was changed from uint64_t to int64_t both in Lua and C (gh-5989).

  • Fixed reversed iterators gap tracking. Instead of tracking gaps for the successors of keys, gaps for tuples shifted by one to the left of the successor were tracked (gh-7113).

  • Now memtx raises an error if the “clear” dictionary is passed to s:select() (gh-6167).
  • Fixed MVCC transaction manager story garbage collection breaking memtx TREE index iterator (gh-6344).

  • Fixed possible keys divergence during secondary index build, which might lead to missing tuples (gh-6045).
  • Fixed the race between Vinyl garbage collection and compaction that resulted in a broken vylog and recovery failure (gh-5436).
  • Immediate removal of compacted run files created after the last checkpoint optimization now works for replica’s initial JOIN stage (gh-6568).
  • Fixed crash during recovery of a secondary index in case the primary index contains incompatible phantom tuples (gh-6778).

  • Fixed the use after free in the relay thread when using elections (gh-6031).
  • Fixed a possible crash when a synchronous transaction was followed by an asynchronous transaction right when its confirmation was being written (gh-6057).
  • Fixed an error where a replica, while attempting to subscribe to a foreign cluster with a different replicaset UUID, did not notice it is impossible and instead became stuck in an infinite retry loop printing a TOO_EARLY_SUBSCRIBE error (gh-6094).
  • Fixed an error where a replica, while attempting to join a cluster with exclusively read-only replicas available, just booted its own replicaset, instead of failing or retrying. Now it fails with an error about the other nodes being read-only so they can’t register the new replica (gh-5613).
  • Fixed error reporting associated with transactions received from remote instances via replication. Any error raised while such a transaction was being applied was always reported as Failed to write to disk regardless of what really happened. Now the correct error is shown. For example, Out of memory, or Transaction has been aborted by conflict, and so on (gh-6027).
  • Fixed replication stopping occasionally with ER_INVALID_MSGPACK when replica is under high load (gh-4040).
  • Fixed a cluster that sometimes could not bootstrap if it contained nodes with election_mode manual or voter (gh-6018).
  • Fixed a possible crash when box.ctl.promote() was called in a cluster with >= 3 instances, happened in debug build. In release build, it could lead to undefined behavior. It was likely to happen if a new node was added shortly before the promotion (gh-5430).
  • Fixed a rare error appearing when MVCC (box.cfg.memtx_use_mvcc_engine) was enabled and more than one replica was joined to a cluster. The join could fail with the error "ER_TUPLE_FOUND: Duplicate key exists in unique index 'primary' in space '_cluster'". The same could happen at the bootstrap of a cluster having >= 3 nodes (gh-5601).
  • Fixed replica reconnecting to a living master on any box.cfg{replication=...} change. Such reconnects could lead to replica failing to restore connection for replication_timeout seconds (gh-4669).
  • Fixed potential obsolete data write in synchronous replication due to race in accessing terms while disk write operation is in progress and not yet completed.
  • Fixed replicas failing to bootstrap when the master has just restarted (gh-6966).
  • Fixed a bug when replication was broken on the master side with ER_INVALID_MSGPACK (gh-7089).

  • Fixed box.ctl.promote() entering an infinite election loop when a node does not have enough peers to win the elections (gh-6654).
  • Servers with elections enabled will resign the leadership and become read-only when the number of connected replicas becomes less than a quorum. This should prevent split-brain in some situations (gh-6661).
  • Fixed a rare crash with the leader election enabled (any mode except off), which could happen if a leader resigned from its role at the same time as some other node was writing something related to the elections to WAL. The crash was in debug build. In the release build, it would lead to undefined behavior (gh-6129).
  • Fixed an error when a new replica in a Raft cluster could try to join from a follower instead of a leader and failed with an error ER_READONLY (gh-6127).
  • Reconfiguration of box.cfg.election_timeout could lead to a crash or undefined behavior if done during an ongoing election with a special WAL write in progress.
  • Fixed several crashes and/or undefined behaviors (assertions in debug build) which could appear when new synchronous transactions were made during ongoing elections (gh-6842).

  • Fixed optimization for single-char strings in the IR_BUFPUT assembly routine.
  • Fixed slots alignment in lj-stack command output when LJ_GC64 is enabled (gh-5876).
  • Fixed dummy frame unwinding in lj-stack command.
  • Fixed top part of Lua stack (red zone, free slots, top slot) unwinding in lj-stack command.
  • Added the value of g->gc.mmudata field to lj-gc output.
  • Fixed detection of inconsistent renames even in the presence of sunk values (gh-4252, gh-5049, gh-5118).
  • Fixed the order VM registers are allocated by LuaJIT frontend in case of BC_ISGE and BC_ISGT (gh-6227).
  • Fixed inconsistency while searching for an error function when unwinding a C-protected frame to handle a runtime error (an error in __gc handler).
  • string.char() builtin recording is fixed in case when no arguments are given (gh-6371, gh-6548).
  • Actually made JIT respect maxirconst trace limit while recording (gh-6548).

  • Fixed a bug when multibyte characters broke space:fselect() output.
  • When an error is raised during encoding call results, the auxiliary lightuserdata value is not removed from the main Lua coroutine stack. Prior to the fix, it leads to undefined behavior during the next usage of this Lua coroutine (gh-4617).
  • Fixed Lua C API misuse, when the error is raised during call results encoding on unprotected coroutine and expected to be caught on the different one that is protected (gh-6248).
  • Fixed net.box error in case connections are frequently opened and closed (gh-6217).
  • Fixed incorrect handling of variable number of arguments in box.func:call() (gh-6405).
  • Fixed table.equals result when booleans compared (gh-6386).
  • Tap subtests inherit strict mode from parent (gh-6868).
  • Fixed the behavior of Tarantool console on SIGINT. Now Ctrl+C discards the current input and prints the new prompt (gh-2717).

  • Fixed the possibility of a crash in case when trigger removes itself.
  • Fixed the possibility of a crash in case someone destroys trigger when it’s yielding (gh-6266).

  • User-defined functions can now return VARBINARY to SQL as a result (gh-6024).
  • Fixed assert on a cast of DOUBLE value greater than -1.0 and less than 0.0 to INTEGER and UNSIGNED (gh-6255).
  • Removed spontaneous conversion from INTEGER to DOUBLE in a field of type NUMBER (gh-5335).
  • All arithmetic operations can now only accept numeric values (gh-5756).
  • Now function quote() returns an argument in case the argument is DOUBLE. The same for all other numeric types. For types other than numeric, STRING is returned (gh-6239).
  • The TRIM() function now does not lose collation when executed with the keywords BOTH, LEADING, or TRAILING (gh-6299).
  • Now getting unsupported msgpack extension in SQL throws the correct error (gh-6375).
  • Now, when copying an empty string, an error will not be set unnecessarily (gh-6157, gh-6399).
  • Fixed wrong comparison between DECIMAL and large DOUBLE values (gh-6376).
  • Fixed truncation of DECIMAL during implicit cast to INTEGER in LIMIT and OFFSET.
  • Fixed truncation of DECIMAL during implicit cast to INTEGER when value is used in an index.
  • Fixed assert on a cast of DECIMAL value that is greater than -1.0 and less than 0.0 to INTEGER (gh-6485).
  • The HEX() SQL built-in function no longer throws an assert when its argument consists of zero-bytes (gh-6113).
  • LIMIT is now allowed in ORDER BY where sort order is in both directions (gh-6664).
  • Fixed a memory leak in SQL during calling of user-defined function (gh-6789).
  • Fixed assertion or segmentation fault when MP_EXT received via net.box (gh-6766).
  • Now the ROUND() function properly supports INTEGER and DECIMAL as the first argument (gh-6988).
  • Fixed a crash when a table inserted data into itself with an incorrect number of columns (gh-7132).

  • Fixed log.cfg getting updated on box.cfg error (gh-6086).
  • Fixed the error message in an attempt to insert into a tuple the size of which equals to box.schema.FIELD_MAX (gh-6198).
  • We now check that all privileges passed to box.schema.grant are resolved (gh-6199).
  • Added iterator type checking and allow passing iterator as a box.index.{ALL,GT,...} directly (gh-6501).

  • Intervals received after datetime arithmetic operations may be improperly normalized if the result was negative

    tarantool> date.now() - date.now()
    ---
    - -1.000026000 seconds
    ...
    

    It means that two immediately called date.now() produce very close values, which difference should be close to 0, not 1 second (gh-6882).

  • Fixed a bug in datetime module when date:set{tzoffset=XXX} did not produce the same result with date.new{tzoffset=XXX} for the same set of attributes passed (gh-6793).

  • Fixed invalid headers after redirect (gh-6101).

  • Fixed MVCC interaction with ephemeral spaces: TX manager now ignores such spaces (gh-6095).
  • Fixed a loss of tuple after a conflict exception (gh-6132).
  • Fixed a segmentation fault in update/delete of the same tuple (gh-6021).

  • Changed the type of the error returned by net.box on timeout from ClientError to TimedOut (gh-6144).

  • When force_recovery cfg option is set, Tarantool is able to boot from snap/xlog combinations where xlog covers changes committed both before and after snap creation. For example, 0...0.xlog, covering everything up to vclock {1: 15} and 0...09.snap, corresponding to vclock {1: 9} (gh-6794).

  • Fixed the missing rocks keyword in tarantoolctl rocks help messages.

  • Bumped Debian packages tarantool-common dependency to use luarocks 3 (gh-5429).
  • Fixed an error when it was possible to have new Tarantool package (version >= 2.2.1) installed with pre-luarocks 3 tarantool-common package (version << 2.2.1), which caused rocks install to fail.
  • The Debian package does not depend on binutils anymore (gh-6699).
  • Fixed build errors with glibc-2.34 (gh-6686).
  • Changed size of alt. signal stack for ASAN needs.
  • Fixed build errors on arm64 with CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug.
