b25deaacea queue daemon fixes: path fix for xmpp, suppress warning in memcached init 2010-01-13 21:24:36 -08:00
Brion Vibber
ec145b73fc Major refactoring of queue handlers to support running multiple sites in one daemon.
Key changes:
* Initialization code moved from common.php to StatusNet class;
  can now switch configurations during runtime.
* As a consequence, configuration files must now be idempotent...
  Be careful with constant, function or class definitions.
* Control structure for daemons/QueueManager/QueueHandler has been refactored;
  the run loop is now managed by IoMaster run via scripts/queuedaemon.php
  IoManager subclasses are woken to handle socket input or polling, and may
  cover multiple sites.
* Plugins can implement notice queue handlers more easily by registering a
  QueueHandler class; no more need to add a daemon.

The new QueueDaemon runs from scripts/queuedaemon.php:

* This replaces most of the old *handler.php scripts; they've been refactored
  to the bare handler classes.
* Spawns multiple child processes to spread load; defaults to CPU count on
  Linux and Mac OS X systems, or override with --threads=N
* When multithreaded, child processes are automatically respawned on failure.
* Threads gracefully shut down and restart when passing a soft memory limit
  (defaults to 90% of memory_limit), limiting damage from memory leaks.
* Support for UDP-based monitoring: http://www.gitorious.org/snqmon

Rough control flow diagram:
QueueDaemon -> IoMaster -> IoManager
                           QueueManager [listen or poll] -> QueueHandler
                           XmppManager [ping & keepalive]
                           XmppConfirmManager [poll updates]

Todo:

* Respawning features not currently available running single-threaded.
* When running single-site, configuration changes aren't picked up.
* New sites or config changes affecting queue subscriptions are not yet
  handled without a daemon restart.
* SNMP monitoring output to integrate with general tools (nagios, ganglia)
* Convert XMPP confirmation message sends to use stomp queue instead of polling
* Convert xmppdaemon.php to IoManager?
* Convert Twitter status, friends import polling daemons to IoManager
* Clean up some error reporting and failure modes
* May need to adjust queue priorities for best perf in backlog/flood cases

7a2d72fe28 Enable memcache automatic compression, starting at 20k and only if compression gain is greater than 20%.
Allows storage of larger objects (over 1mb in size uncompressed), such as huge LDAP schemas.
Should also improve cache efficiency (allows more stuff to be stored in same memory) and reduce network latency (less data transfer)

(redo commit 1e9c03e199 which was apparently lost during pluginization)
