Make `check_if_node_is_mirror_sync_critical` a no-op
with a deprecation warning. Since this command is commonly used
as part of the node shutdown process (eg. by Cluster Operator),
making it a no-op instead of removing completly will make the
transition to 4.0 easier for users.
We don't need to duplicate so many patterns in so many
files since we have a monorepo (and want to keep it).
If I managed to miss something or remove something that
should stay, please put it back. Note that monorepo-wide
patterns should go in the top-level .gitignore file.
Other .gitignore files are for application or folder-
specific patterns.
The FD limits are still valuable.
The FD used will still show some information during CQv1
upgrade to v2 so it is kept for now. But in the future
it will have to be reworked to query the system, or be
removed.
Stats were not removed, including management UI stats
relating to FDs.
Web-MQTT and Web-STOMP configuration relating to FHC
were not removed.
The file_handle_cache itself must be kept until we
remove CQv1.
It's technically a build target, so we didn't need to create a whole
new test rule, but it's marked as "manual" so that it doesn't cause
bazel build //... to fail
This greatly speeds up execution because we go through
this Makefile twice (currently). Once for building and
once for installing (e)scripts.
make -C deps/rabbit 0,37s user 0,15s system 101% cpu 0,508 total
make -C deps/rabbit 0,35s user 0,09s system 100% cpu 0,438 total
Since commit c0187ec15 the value of `running_version` is converted
to_string (`nil` would become the empty string). But the formatter
expected `running_version` to be `nil` if the plugin is not
running. This did not match and not running/not enabled plugins were
marked incorrectly as "pending upgrade to...".
For example:
```
$ rabbitmq-plugins list trust -q
[ ] rabbitmq_trust_store (pending upgrade to 3.13.0+51.g9145b53)
$ rabbitmq-plugins list trust --formatter erlang -q
#{status => running,format => normal,
plugins =>
[#{enabled => not_enabled,name => rabbitmq_trust_store,running => false,
version => <<"3.13.0+51.g9145b53">>,running_version => <<>>}]}
```
In the rabbitmqctl docs for list_unresponsive_queues, `type` is listed as
a queueinfoitem parameter, but this is not reflected in the source code.
This commit adds `type` as a queueinfoitem parameter for list_unresponsive_queues.
the original paths, e.g. /streams.html, do have redirects
in place but it turned out to be a surprisingly fragile
Cloudflare feature when there are hundreds of them,
so we better switch now.
## What
Similar to Native MQTT in #5895, this commits implements Native AMQP 1.0.
By "native", we mean do not proxy via AMQP 0.9.1 anymore.
## Why
Native AMQP 1.0 comes with the following major benefits:
1. Similar to Native MQTT, this commit provides better throughput, latency,
scalability, and resource usage for AMQP 1.0.
See https://blog.rabbitmq.com/posts/2023/03/native-mqtt for native MQTT improvements.
See further below for some benchmarks.
2. Since AMQP 1.0 is not limited anymore by the AMQP 0.9.1 protocol,
this commit allows implementing more AMQP 1.0 features in the future.
Some features are already implemented in this commit (see next section).
3. Simpler, better understandable, and more maintainable code.
Native AMQP 1.0 as implemented in this commit has the
following major benefits compared to AMQP 0.9.1:
4. Memory and disk alarms will only stop accepting incoming TRANSFER frames.
New connections can still be created to consume from RabbitMQ to empty queues.
5. Due to 4. no need anymore for separate connections for publishers and
consumers as we currently recommended for AMQP 0.9.1. which potentially
halves the number of physical TCP connections.
6. When a single connection sends to multiple target queues, a single
slow target queue won't block the entire connection.
Publisher can still send data quickly to all other target queues.
7. A publisher can request whether it wants publisher confirmation on a per-message basis.
In AMQP 0.9.1 publisher confirms are configured per channel only.
8. Consumers can change their "prefetch count" dynamically which isn't
possible in our AMQP 0.9.1 implementation. See #10174
9. AMQP 1.0 is an extensible protocol
This commit also fixes dozens of bugs present in the AMQP 1.0 plugin in
RabbitMQ 3.x - most of which cannot be backported due to the complexity
and limitations of the old 3.x implementation.
This commit contains breaking changes and is therefore targeted for RabbitMQ 4.0.
## Implementation details
1. Breaking change: With Native AMQP, the behaviour of
```
Convert AMQP 0.9.1 message headers to application properties for an AMQP 1.0 consumer
amqp1_0.convert_amqp091_headers_to_app_props = false | true (default false)
Convert AMQP 1.0 Application Properties to AMQP 0.9.1 headers
amqp1_0.convert_app_props_to_amqp091_headers = false | true (default false)
```
will break because we always convert according to the message container conversions.
For example, AMQP 0.9.1 x-headers will go into message-annotations instead of application properties.
Also, `false` won’t be respected since we always convert the headers with message containers.
2. Remove rabbit_queue_collector
rabbit_queue_collector is responsible for synchronously deleting
exclusive queues. Since the AMQP 1.0 plugin never creates exclusive
queues, rabbit_queue_collector doesn't need to be started in the first
place. This will save 1 Erlang process per AMQP 1.0 connection.
3. 7 processes per connection + 1 process per session in this commit instead of
7 processes per connection + 15 processes per session in 3.x
Supervision hierarchy got re-designed.
4. Use 1 writer process per AMQP 1.0 connection
AMQP 0.9.1 uses a separate rabbit_writer Erlang process per AMQP 0.9.1 channel.
Prior to this commit, AMQP 1.0 used a separate rabbit_amqp1_0_writer process per AMQP 1.0 session.
Advantage of single writer proc per session (prior to this commit):
* High parallelism for serialising packets if multiple sessions within
a connection write heavily at the same time.
This commit uses a single writer process per AMQP 1.0 connection that is
shared across all AMQP 1.0 sessions.
Advantages of single writer proc per connection (this commit):
* Lower memory usage with hundreds of thousands of AMQP 1.0 sessions
* Less TCP and IP header overhead given that the single writer process
can accumulate across all sessions bytes before flushing the socket.
In other words, this commit decides that a reader / writer process pair
per AMQP 1.0 connection is good enough for bi-directional TRANSFER flows.
Having a writer per session is too heavy.
We still ensure high throughput by having separate reader, writer, and
session processes.
5. Transform rabbit_amqp1_0_writer into gen_server
Why:
Prior to this commit, when clicking on the AMQP 1.0 writer process in
observer, the process crashed.
Instead of handling all these debug messages of the sys module, it's better
to implement a gen_server.
There is no advantage of using a special OTP process over gen_server
for the AMQP 1.0 writer.
gen_server also provides cleaner format status output.
How:
Message callbacks return a timeout of 0.
After all messages in the inbox are processed, the timeout message is
handled by flushing any pending bytes.
6. Remove stats timer from writer
AMQP 1.0 connections haven't emitted any stats previously.
7. When there are contiguous queue confirmations in the session process
mailbox, batch them. When the confirmations are sent to the publisher, a
single DISPOSITION frame is sent for contiguously confirmed delivery
IDs.
This approach should be good enough. However it's sub optimal in
scenarios where contiguous delivery IDs that need confirmations are rare,
for example:
* There are multiple links in the session with different sender
settlement modes and sender publishes across these links interleaved.
* sender settlement mode is mixed and sender publishes interleaved settled
and unsettled TRANSFERs.
8. Introduce credit API v2
Why:
The AMQP 0.9.1 credit extension which is to be removed in 4.0 was poorly
designed since basic.credit is a synchronous call into the queue process
blocking the entire AMQP 1.0 session process.
How:
Change the interactions between queue clients and queue server
implementations:
* Clients only request a credit reply if the FLOW's `echo` field is set
* Include all link flow control state held by the queue process into a
new credit_reply queue event:
* `available` after the queue sends any deliveries
* `link-credit` after the queue sends any deliveries
* `drain` which allows us to combine the old queue events
send_credit_reply and send_drained into a single new queue event
credit_reply.
* Include the consumer tag into the credit_reply queue event such that
the AMQP 1.0 session process can process any credit replies
asynchronously.
Link flow control state `delivery-count` also moves to the queue processes.
The new interactions are hidden behind feature flag credit_api_v2 to
allow for rolling upgrades from 3.13 to 4.0.
9. Use serial number arithmetic in quorum queues and session process.
10. Completely bypass the rabbit_limiter module for AMQP 1.0
flow control. The goal is to eventually remove the rabbit_limiter module
in 4.0 since AMQP 0.9.1 global QoS will be unsupported in 4.0. This
commit lifts the AMQP 1.0 link flow control logic out of rabbit_limiter
into rabbit_queue_consumers.
11. Fix credit bug for streams:
AMQP 1.0 settlements shouldn't top up link credit,
only FLOW frames should top up link credit.
12. Allow sender settle mode unsettled for streams
since AMQP 1.0 acknowledgements to streams are no-ops (currently).
13. Fix AMQP 1.0 client bugs
Auto renewing credits should not be related to settling TRANSFERs.
Remove field link_credit_unsettled as it was wrong and confusing.
Prior to this commit auto renewal did not work when the sender uses
sender settlement mode settled.
14. Fix AMQP 1.0 client bugs
The wrong outdated Link was passed to function auto_flow/2
15. Use osiris chunk iterator
Only hold messages of uncompressed sub batches in memory if consumer
doesn't have sufficient credits.
Compressed sub batches are skipped for non Stream protocol consumers.
16. Fix incoming link flow control
Always use confirms between AMQP 1.0 queue clients and queue servers.
As already done internally by rabbit_fifo_client and
rabbit_stream_queue, use confirms for classic queues as well.
17. Include link handle into correlation when publishing messages to target queues
such that session process can correlate confirms from target queues to
incoming links.
18. Only grant more credits to publishers if publisher hasn't sufficient credits
anymore and there are not too many unconfirmed messages on the link.
19. Completely ignore `block` and `unblock` queue actions and RabbitMQ credit flow
between classic queue process and session process.
20. Link flow control is independent between links.
A client can refer to a queue or to an exchange with multiple
dynamically added target queues. Multiple incoming links can also fan
in to the same queue. However the link topology looks like, this
commit ensures that each link is only granted more credits if that link
isn't overloaded.
21. A connection or a session can send to many different queues.
In AMQP 0.9.1, a single slow queue will lead to the entire channel, and
then entire connection being blocked.
This commit makes sure that a single slow queue from one link won't slow
down sending on other links.
For example, having link A sending to a local classic queue and
link B sending to 5 replica quorum queue, link B will naturally
grant credits slower than link A. So, despite the quorum queue being
slower in confirming messages, the same AMQP 1.0 connection and session
can still pump data very fast into the classic queue.
22. If cluster wide memory or disk alarm occurs.
Each session sends a FLOW with incoming-window to 0 to sending client.
If sending clients don’t obey, force disconnect the client.
If cluster wide memory alarm clears:
Each session resumes with a FLOW defaulting to initial incoming-window.
23. All operations apart of publishing TRANSFERS to RabbitMQ can continue during cluster wide alarms,
specifically, attaching consumers and consuming, i.e. emptying queues.
There is no need for separate AMQP 1.0 connections for publishers and consumers as recommended in our AMQP 0.9.1 implementation.
24. Flow control summary:
* If queue becomes bottleneck, that’s solved by slowing down individual sending links (AMQP 1.0 link flow control).
* If session becomes bottleneck (more unlikely), that’s solved by AMQP 1.0 session flow control.
* If connection becomes bottleneck, it naturally won’t read fast enough from the socket causing TCP backpressure being applied.
Nowhere will RabbitMQ internal credit based flow control (i.e. module credit_flow) be used on the incoming AMQP 1.0 message path.
25. Register AMQP sessions
Prefer local-only pg over our custom pg_local implementation as
pg is a better process group implementation than pg_local.
pg_local was identified as bottleneck in tests where many MQTT clients were disconnected at once.
26. Start a local-only pg when Rabbit boots:
> A scope can be kept local-only by using a scope name that is unique cluster-wide, e.g. the node name:
> pg:start_link(node()).
Register AMQP 1.0 connections and sessions with pg.
In future we should remove pg_local and instead use the new local-only
pg for all registered processes such as AMQP 0.9.1 connections and channels.
27. Requeue messages if link detached
Although the spec allows to settle delivery IDs on detached links, RabbitMQ does not respect the 'closed'
field of the DETACH frame and therefore handles every DETACH frame as closed. Since the link is closed,
we expect every outstanding delivery to be requeued.
In addition to consumer cancellation, detaching a link therefore causes in flight deliveries to be requeued.
Note that this behaviour is different from merely consumer cancellation in AMQP 0.9.1:
"After a consumer is cancelled there will be no future deliveries dispatched to it. Note that there can
still be "in flight" deliveries dispatched previously. Cancelling a consumer will neither discard nor requeue them."
[https://www.rabbitmq.com/consumers.html#unsubscribing]
An AMQP receiver can first drain, and then detach to prevent "in flight" deliveries
28. Init AMQP session with BEGIN frame
Similar to how there can't be an MQTT processor without a CONNECT
frame, there can't be an AMQP session without a BEGIN frame.
This allows having strict dialyzer types for session flow control
fields (i.e. not allowing 'undefined').
29. Move serial_number to AMQP 1.0 common lib
such that it can be used by both AMQP 1.0 server and client
30. Fix AMQP client to do serial number arithmetic.
31. AMQP client: Differentiate between delivery-id and transfer-id for better
understandability.
32. Fix link flow control in classic queues
This commit fixes
```
java -jar target/perf-test.jar -ad false -f persistent -u cq -c 3000 -C 1000000 -y 0
```
followed by
```
./omq -x 0 amqp -T /queue/cq -D 1000000 --amqp-consumer-credits 2
```
Prior to this commit, (and on RabbitMQ 3.x) the consuming would halt after around
8 - 10,000 messages.
The bug was that in flight messages from classic queue process to
session process were not taken into account when topping up credit to
the classic queue process.
Fixes#2597
The solution to this bug (and a much cleaner design anyway independent of
this bug) is that queues should hold all link flow control state including
the delivery-count.
Hence, when credit API v2 is used the delivery-count will be held by the
classic queue process, quorum queue process, and stream queue client
instead of managing the delivery-count in the session.
33. The double level crediting between (a) session process and
rabbit_fifo_client, and (b) rabbit_fifo_client and rabbit_fifo was
removed. Therefore, instead of managing 3 separate delivery-counts (i. session,
ii. rabbit_fifo_client, iii. rabbit_fifo), only 1 delivery-count is used
in rabbit_fifo. This is a big simplification.
34. This commit fixes quorum queues without bumping the machine version
nor introducing new rabbit_fifo commands.
Whether credit API v2 is used is solely determined at link attachment time
depending on whether feature flag credit_api_v2 is enabled.
Even when that feature flag will be enabled later on, this link will
keep using credit API v1 until detached (or the node is shut down).
Eventually, after feature flag credit_api_v2 has been enabled and a
subsequent rolling upgrade, all links will use credit API v2.
This approach is safe and simple.
The 2 alternatives to move delivery-count from the session process to the
queue processes would have been:
i. Explicit feature flag credit_api_v2 migration function
* Can use a gen_server:call and only finish migration once all delivery-counts were migrated.
Cons:
* Extra new message format just for migration is required.
* Risky as migration will fail if a target queue doesn’t reply.
ii. Session always includes DeliveryCountSnd when crediting to the queue:
Cons:
* 2 delivery counts will be hold simultaneously in session proc and queue proc;
could be solved by deleting the session proc’s delivery-count for credit-reply
* What happens if the receiver doesn’t provide credit for a very long time? Is that a problem?
35. Support stream filtering in AMQP 1.0 (by @acogoluegnes)
Use the x-stream-filter-value message annotation
to carry the filter value in a published message.
Use the rabbitmq:stream-filter and rabbitmq:stream-match-unfiltered
filters when creating a receiver that wants to filter
out messages from a stream.
36. Remove credit extension from AMQP 0.9.1 client
37. Support maintenance mode closing AMQP 1.0 connections.
38. Remove AMQP 0.9.1 client dependency from AMQP 1.0 implementation.
39. Move AMQP 1.0 plugin to the core. AMQP 1.0 is enabled by default.
The old rabbitmq_amqp1_0 plugin will be kept as a no-op plugin to prevent deployment
tools from failing that execute:
```
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_amqp1_0
rabbitmq-plugins disable rabbitmq_amqp1_0
```
40. Breaking change: Remove CLI command `rabbitmqctl list_amqp10_connections`.
Instead, list both AMQP 0.9.1 and AMQP 1.0 connections in `list_connections`:
```
rabbitmqctl list_connections protocol
Listing connections ...
protocol
{1, 0}
{0,9,1}
```

## Future work
1. More efficient parser and serializer
2. TODO in mc_amqp: Do not store the parsed message on disk.
3. Implement both AMQP HTTP extension and AMQP management extension to allow AMQP
clients to create RabbitMQ objects (queues, exchanges, ...).
* Remove unused aliases/imports
* Remove or underscore unused bindings
* Fix variables that should be atoms (`unavailable` -> `:unavailable`)
Also, `Logger.warn/1` has been replaced by `Logger.warning/1`. It should
be safe to just replace the call with `Logger.warning/1` since it's
been in the standard library since Elixir 1.11.
Various bug fixes to make stream coordinator membership changes
more reliable. Previously various errors could happen as well as
partially successful attempts where the membership change command
may fail but it leaves the new server running.
Also ensure that stream coordinator members are removed as part of
the forget_cluster_node command.
Add stream coordinator status command.
To show the raft status of the stream coordinator just like is done
for quorum queues.
* platform.os_name/1 parses output of :rabbit.status/1
* :rabbit.status/1 get its `os` key from :os.type/0
* :linux already matched by `platform.os_name({:unix, name})`.
This makes a command that renames cluster members
a no-op. This command is really complex under
the hood and is fundamentally incompatible
with a few key Raft-based features:
* Khepri
* Quorum queues
* Streams
Because Khepri first ships in RabbitMQ 3.13,
now is the time to effectively eliminate this
command.
It will be permanently removed together with
other deprecated CLI commands in 4.0.
Per discussion with the team.
Closes#10367.
This revisits the information system conversion,
that is, support for suffixes like GiB, GB.
When configuration values like disk_free_limit.absolute,
vm_memory_high_watermark.absolute are set, the value
can contain an information unit (IU) suffix.
We now support several new suffixes and the meaning
a few more changes.
First, the changes:
* k, K now mean kilobytes and not kibibytes
* m, M now mean megabytes and not mebibytes
* g, G now means gigabytes and not gibibytes
This is to match the system used by Kubernetes.
There is no consensus in the industry about how
"k", "m", "g", and similar single letter suffixes
should be treated. Previously it was a power of 2,
now a power of 10 to align with a very popular OSS
project that explicitly documents what suffixes it supports.
Now, the additions:
Finally, the node will now validate these suffixes
at boot time, so an unsupported value will cause
the node to stop with a rabbitmq.conf validation
error.
The message logged will look like this:

Closes#10310
[Why]
This work started as an effort to add peer discovery support to our
Khepri integration. Indeed, as part of the task to integrate Khepri, we
missed the fact that `rabbit_peer_discovery:maybe_create_cluster/1` was
called from the Mnesia-specific code only. Even though we knew about it
because we hit many issues caused by the fact the `join_cluster` and
peer discovery use different code path to create a cluster.
To add support for Khepri, the first version of this patch was to move
the call to `rabbit_peer_discovery:maybe_create_cluster/1` from
`rabbit_db_cluster` instead of `rabbit_mnesia`. To achieve that, it made
sense to unify the code and simply call `rabbit_db_cluster:join/2`
instead of duplicating the work.
Unfortunately, doing so highlighted another issue: the way the node to
cluster with was selected. Indeed, it could cause situations where
multiple clusters are created instead of one, without resorting to
out-of-band counter-measures, like a 30-second delay added in the
Kubernetes operator (rabbitmq/cluster-operator#1156). This problem was
even more frequent when we tried to unify the code path and call
`join_cluster`.
After several iterations on the patch and even more discussions with the
team, we decided to rewrite the algorithm to make node selection more
robust and still use `rabbit_db_cluster:join/2` to create the cluster.
[How]
This commit is only about the rewrite of the algorithm. Calling peer
discovery from `rabbit_db_cluster` instead of `rabbit_mnesia` (and thus
making peer discovery work with Khepri) will be done in a follow-up
commit.
We wanted the new algorithm to fulfill the following properties:
1. `rabbit_peer_discovery` should provide the ability to re-trigger it
easily to re-evaluate the cluster. The new public API is
`rabbit_peer_discovery:sync_desired_cluster/0`.
2. The selection of the node to join should be designed in a way that
all nodes select the same, regardless of the order in which they
become available. The adopted solution is to sort the list of
discovered nodes with the following criterias (in that order):
1. the size of the cluster a discovered node is part of; sorted from
bigger to smaller clusters
2. the start time of a discovered node; sorted from older to younger
nodes
3. the name of a discovered node; sorted alphabetically
The first node in that list will not join anyone and simply proceed
with its boot process. Other nodes will try to join the first node.
3. To reduce the chance of incorrectly having multiple standalone nodes
because the discovery backend returned only a single node, we want to
apply the following constraints to the list of nodes after it is
filtered and sorted (see property 2 above):
* The list must contain `node()` (i.e. the node running peer
discovery itself).
* If the RabbitMQ's cluster size hint is greater than 1, the list
must have at least two nodes. The cluster size hint is the maximum
between the configured target cluster size hint and the number of
elements in the nodes list returned by the backend.
If one of the constraint is not met, the entire peer discovery
process is restarted after a delay.
4. The lock is acquired only to protect the actual join, not the
discovery step where the backend is queried to get the list of peers.
With the node selection described above, this will let the first node
to start without acquiring the lock.
5. The cluster membership views queried as part of the algorithm to sort
the list of nodes will be used to detect additional clusters or
standalone nodes that did not cluster correctly. These nodes will be
asked to re-evaluate peer discovery to increase the chance of forming
a single cluster.
6. After some delay, peer discovery will be re-evaluated to further
eliminate the chances of having multiple clusters instead of one.
This commit covers properties from point 1 to point 4. Remaining
properties will be the scope of additional pull requests after this one
works.
If there is a failure at any point during discovery, filtering/sorting,
locking or joining, the entire process is restarted after a delay. This
is configured using the following parameters:
* cluster_formation.discovery_retry_limit
* cluster_formation.discovery_retry_interval
The default parameters were bumped to 30 retries with a delay of 1
second between each.
The locking retries/interval parameters are not used by the new
algorithm anymore.
There are extra minor changes that come with the rewrite:
* The configured backend is cached in a persistent term. The goal is to
make sure we use the same backend throughout the entire process and
when we call `maybe_unregister/0` even if the configuration changed
for whatever reason in between.
* `maybe_register/0` is called from `rabbit_db_cluster` instead of at
the end of a successful peer discovery process. `rabbit_db_cluster`
had to call `maybe_register/0` if the node was not virgin anyway. So
make it simpler and always call it in `rabbit_db_cluster` regardless
of the state of the node.
* `log_configured_backend/0` is gone. `maybe_init/0` can log the backend
directly. There is no need to explicitly call another function for
that.
* Messages are logged using `?LOG_*()` macros instead of the old
`rabbit_log` module.
[Why]
Up until now, a user had to run the following three commands to expand a
cluster:
1. stop_app
2. join_cluster
3. start_app
Stopping and starting the `rabbit` application and taking care of the
underlying Mnesia application could be handled by `join_cluster`
directly.
[How]
After the call to `can_join/1` and before proceeding with the actual
join, the code remembers the state of `rabbit`, the Feature flags
controler and Mnesia.
After the join, it restarts whatever needs to be restarted to. It does
so regardless of the success or failure of the join. One exception is
when the node switched from Mnesia to Khepri as part of that join. In
this case, Mnesia is left stopped.
