# jepsen.garage
|
|
|
|
Jepsen checking of Garage consistency properties.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
|
|
- vagrant
|
|
- VirtualBox, configured so that nodes can take an IP in a private network `192.168.56.0/24`
|
|
- a user that can create VirtualBox VMs
|
|
- leiningen
|
|
- gnuplot
|
|
|
|
Set up VMs:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
vagrant up
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run tests (this one should fail):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 64 --concurrency 50 --rate 50 --workload reg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
These ones are working:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 64 --rate 50 --concurrency 50 --workload set1
|
|
lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 64 --rate 50 --concurrency 50 --workload set2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Results
|
|
|
|
### Register linear, without timestamp patch
|
|
|
|
Command: `lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 60 --rate 20 --concurrency 20 --workload reg1 --ops-per-key 100`
|
|
|
|
Results: fails with a simple clock-scramble nemesis.
|
|
|
|
Explanation: without the timestamp patch, nodes will create objects using their
|
|
local clock only as a timestamp, so the ordering will be all over the place if
|
|
clocks are scrambled.
|
|
|
|
### Register linear, with timestamp patch
|
|
|
|
Command: `lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 60 --rate 20 --concurrency 20 --workload reg1 --ops-per-key 100 --patch tsfix1`
|
|
|
|
Results:
|
|
|
|
- No failure with clock-scramble nemesis
|
|
- Fails with clock-scramble nemesis + partition nemesis
|
|
|
|
Explanation: S3 objects are not meant to behave like linearizable registers. TODO explain using a counter-example
|
|
|
|
### Read-after-write CRDT register model, without timestamp patch
|
|
|
|
Command: `lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 60 --rate 100 --concurrency 100 --workload reg2 --ops-per-key 100`
|
|
|
|
Results: fails with a simple clock-scramble nemesis.
|
|
|
|
Explanation: old values are not overwritten correctly when their timestamps are in the future.
|
|
|
|
### Read-after-write CRDT register model, with timestamp patch (v2 with DeleteObject fix as well)
|
|
|
|
Command: `lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 60 --rate 100 --concurrency 100 --workload reg2 --ops-per-key 100 --patch tsfix2`
|
|
|
|
Results:
|
|
|
|
- No failures with clock-scramble nemesis + partition nemesis
|
|
- Fails with layout reconfiguration nemesis (TODO: test more and investigate)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Set, basic test (write some items, then read)
|
|
|
|
Command: `lein run test --nodes-file nodes.vagrant --time-limit 60 --rate 100 --concurrency 100 --workload set1 --ops-per-key 100`
|
|
|
|
Results:
|
|
|
|
- For now, no failures with clock-scramble nemesis + partition nemesis
|
|
- TODO: layout reconfiguration nemesis (does not fail yet! but it should)
|
|
|
|
### Set, continuous test (interspersed reads and writes)
|
|
|
|
TODO
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Investigating (and fixing) errors
|
|
|
|
### Segfaults
|
|
|
|
They are due to the download being interrupted in the middle (^C during first launch on clean VMs), the `garage` binary is truncated.
|
|
Add `:force?` to the `cached-wget!` call in `daemon.clj` to re-download the binary.
|
|
|
|
### In `jepsen.garage`: prefix wierdness
|
|
|
|
In `store/garage set1/20231019T163358.615+0200`:
|
|
|
|
```

INFO [2023-10-19 16:35:20,977] clojure-agent-send-off-pool-207 - jepsen.garage.set list results for prefix set20/ : (set13/0 set13/1 set13/10 set13/11 set13/12 set13/13 set13/14 set13/15 set13/16 set13/17 set13/18 set13/19 set13/2 set13/20 set13/21 set13/22 set13/23 set13/24 set13/25 set13/26 set13/27 set13/28 set13/29 set13/3 set13/30 set13/31 set13/32 set13/33 set13/34 set13/35 set13/36 set13/37 set13/38 set13/39 set13/4 set13/40 set13/41 set13/42 set13/43 set13/44 set13/45 set13/46 set13/47 set13/48 set13/49 set13/5 set13/50 set13/51 set13/52 set13/53 set13/54 set13/55 set13/56 set13/57 set13/58 set13/59 set13/6 set13/60 set13/61 set13/62 set13/63 set13/64 set13/65 set13/66 set13/67 set13/68 set13/69 set13/7 set13/70 set13/71 set13/72 set13/73 set13/74 set13/75 set13/76 set13/77 set13/78 set13/79 set13/8 set13/80 set13/81 set13/82 set13/83 set13/84 set13/85 set13/86 set13/87 set13/88 set13/89 set13/9 set13/90 set13/91 set13/92 set13/93 set13/94 set13/95 set13/96 set13/97 set13/98 set13/99) (node: http://192.168.56.25:3900 )
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After inspecting, the actual S3 call made was with prefix "set13/", so at least this is not an error in Garage itself but in the jepsen code.
|
|
|
|
Finally found out that this was due to closures not correctly capturing their context in the list function in s3api.clj (wtf clojure?)
|
|
Not sure exactly where it came from but it seems to have been fixed by making list-inner a separate function and not a sub-function,
|
|
and passing all values that were previously in the context (creds and prefix) as additional arguments.
|
|
|
|
### `reg2` test inconsistency, even with timestamp fix
|
|
|
|
The reg2 test is our custom checker for CRDT read-after-write on individual object keys, acting as registers which can be updated.
|
|
The test fails without the timestamp fix, which is expected as the clock scrambler will prevent nodes from having a correct ordering of objects.
|
|
|
|
With the timestamp fix, the happenned-before relationship should at least be respected, meaning that when a PutObject call starts
|
|
after another PutObject call has ended, the second call should overwrite the value of the first call, and that value should not be
|
|
readable by future GetObject calls.
|
|
However, we observed inconsistencies even with the timestamp fix.
|
|
|
|
The inconsistencies seemed to always happenned after writing a nil value, which translates to a DeleteObject call
|
|
instead of a PutObject. By removing the possibility of writing nil values, therefore only doing
|
|
PutObject calls, the issue disappears. There is therefore an issue to fix in DeleteObject.
|
|
|
|
The issue in DeleteObject seems to have been fixed by commit `c82d91c6bccf307186332b6c5c6fc0b128b1b2b1`
