10 karl 1.1.2.4 TODO list:
|
11 karl 1.1.2.3 1. Binary operation from OOP. Need to add counter to binary
12 protocol to be able to count objects in response. Generates
13 warnings in things like messageserializer and does not work with
|
14 karl 1.1.2.14 OOP right now. Corrected by converting to XML.
|
15 karl 1.1.2.23 2. OpenExecQuery - Code is incomplete in that it does not include the
|
16 karl 1.1.2.15 return from the exec query function to the aggregator yet.
|
17 karl 1.1.2.4 3. Code for Pull part of OpenQueryInstancesRequest a) should be part of
18 the common CIMOperationRequestDispatcher execCommon code.
19 4. The changes to WQLCIMOperationRequestDispatcher and CQL... for handling
20 pull not completed so we feed the responses back to the EnmerationContext
21 queues
|
22 karl 1.1.2.18 3. Lots of minor TODOs, diagnostics, etc. still in the code
|
23 karl 1.1.2.14 4. External runtime variables. Proposing that they be fixed for this release
|
24 karl 1.1.2.15 rather than set by configuration. This should be discussed. Am making
|
25 karl 1.1.2.16 this a separate bug. See bug 9819 for the changes to cover this.
|
26 karl 1.1.2.24 5. Consider moving some more of the code in dispatcher from templates to
|
27 karl 1.1.2.23 common functions which would mean adding intermediate classes in
28 CIMMessage but would reduce code size. Currently the change that
29 we should make for this is to create a new message CIMPullRequestData...
30 between CIMRequestDataMessage and the Pull requests since they all
31 have exactly the same input and output pararameters (The
32 CIMResponseData hides the response object differences)
33 6. Extension to avoid double move of objects in CIMResponseData (one
|
34 karl 1.1.2.3 into enumerationContext queue and second to new cimResponseData for
35 response. Want to avoid second move by extending Open/Pull response
36 messages to include count and CIMResponse data to count objects out
|
37 karl 1.1.2.23 of queue when converting (avoids the second move). This would mean
38 extending the output writers to allow the count field to be supplied
39 so they would only create output for up to the count supplied.
|
40 karl 1.1.2.24 7. Add test for the 0 operation timeout in PullErrors.
|
41 karl 1.1.2.23 8. Add more static tests (currently only OpenEnumerateInstances is covered).
42 9. Could clean up the CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp rejectCIMException
43 further since there is some overlap. That is low priority.
44 10.Add exception for to many entries in EnumerationContextTable. The
45 test exists but is ignored right now.
46 7. NEXT TASKS:
47 b. Finish and test the OpenQueryInstances
|
48 karl 1.1.2.16 c. Clean up TODOs
|
49 karl 1.1.2.23 d. Find issue that is causing occasional failures under load. It
50 is probably a threading issue between the 3 possible threads
51 that use the EnumerationContext (request thread, provider thread,
|
52 karl 1.1.2.24 timeout thread) and a place where not mutuxed, primarily the
53 timeout thread.
|
54 karl 1.1.2.23
|
55 karl 1.1.2.24 22 April 2014
56 1. Clean up some messages.
57 2. Still trying to find issue that randomly keeps messages in timeout
58 queue long after they have been closed and returned.
|
59 karl 1.1.2.25 3. Fixed memory loss error.
60
|
61 karl 1.1.2.23 21 April 2014
62 1. Reorganizzed code in CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp ...Iparam classes.
63 Cleaned up the rejectCIMException code.
64 2. Cleanup some issues in the EnumerationContextTimeout Thread.
65 3. Fixed issue in pullop where it was using zero as default for default
66 operation timeout where it should have been NULL, the DMTF specified
67 default.
68 4. Enabled the test to reject 0 as operation timeout on a request and but
69 controled by a #define in CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp
70 5. Added test for excessive new OperationContext entries in table.
71
72 18 April 2014
73 1. Internationalize remaining messages in CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and
74 clean up the decoders for some of the messages so they use the
75 ...Iparam classes. Note that we did not clean up all of the old message
76 decoders, just the new ones and we did not clean up the Count message
77 since it is deprecated. TODO clean these up so the decoder is really
78 consistent.
79 2. Enabled the EnumerationContext Timer and removed code for alternate
80 non-thread solution.
|
81 karl 1.1.2.16
|
82 karl 1.1.2.21 17 April 2014
83 1. Reorganized the lock/unlock for handling the EnumerationContext because
84 there were thread windows (i.e. using the context after it was released
85 by other thread).
86 2. Modified code for the InteroperationTimerThread and deleted old code that
87 allowed this whole thread to by bypassed.
88 3. Internationalized a number of CIMOperationRequestDispatcher CIMException
89 response messages.
|
90 karl 1.1.2.22 4. Fixed stress tests in Client/tests/pullop that were getting timeout. The
91 issue was not the pull code but that fact that the idle client timeout
92 appears to be measureing to the end of the operation and the operation
93 was taking more than 40 seconds which is the default timeout. The idle
94 timeout takes no account of the fact that chunks are being regularly
95 delivered.
96 5. Several minor code changes.
97 NOTE: At this point the code passes extensive tests of the pull operations
98 both in OOP and none OOP mode (but with lots of diagnostics that may
99 be affecting timing).
|
100 karl 1.1.2.21
|
101 karl 1.1.2.20 10 April 2014
102 1. Fix issues causing failure with repeated pull operations.
103 2. Consolidate some of the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp template code

106 MergeOut of head of tree.
107
108 7 April 2014
109 1. Permanently fixed issue with getting correct number of objects on response.
110 This was introduced when did a temp fix to the OOP processing, in particular
111 removed the condition variable wait in the CIMOperationDispatcher handle
112 functions for opens and pulls. This moved the functionality to kick off
113 open and pull responses to the provider threads if there are not enough
114 objects when the handle is processed. Also added a variable to allow us to
115 test with either a) responses are required to satisfy the original
116 request size or) b, responses are required only to return some objects.
117 We will add statistics to see which of these works best.
118 2. Modified WsmProcessor EnumerationContext class since the name conflicts
119 with the pull Operation EnumerationContext class.
120 3. Created a new intermediate level of CIMMessage, the CIMPullResponseData
121 Message so that all of the open and Pull responses can use common code
122 since there are only two variables (endOfSequence and EnumerationContext)
123 and they are common across all the open and pull responses.
124 4. Removed a number of diagnostics.
125 5. Cleaned up the Dispcatcher so that the open and pulls have common response
126 karl 1.1.2.19 code and that code can be used from the dispatcher handle functions and
127 the provider response functions.
128
|
129 karl 1.1.2.18 31 March 2014 - Checkin
130 1. Fixed issues in OOP processing of pull operations, in particular
131 issues with cimxml output format when processed through the
132 *InternalXmlEncoder functions.
133 2. Clean up some of the internalXml functionality
134 3. Found issues causing timeout with a particular provider. The issue
135 is that the dispatcher and monitor end up using the same thread so the
136 condition variable in the dispatcher thread stops the monitor. Turned
137 off the conditionVariable in getCache for the moment which means that
138 we get number of responses for open... with 0 objects before the
139 providers can begin to respond. This is only for test.
140 4. Added some statistics for enumerations and display the statistics
141 when we close the server (same as cache statistics)
142
143 12 March 2014 - Mergeout and Mergein
144 1. Mergeout to head of tree for this date and mergein for patch update
145 to bug 9676
146 2. Extensions to pullop tests program and tests.
147 3. Added some diagnostics in looking for OOP issue.
148 4. Removed a number of diagnostics messages and cleaned up code in
149 dispatcher to simplify pull operation processing.

157 karl 1.1.2.16 21 November 2013
158 1. Mergeout from head of tree to 21 November 2013.
|
159 karl 1.1.2.15
160 18 November 2013
161 1. Cleanup of a bunch of minor errors and completion of all of the code for
162 the openQueryInstances except for the PullInstances in Dispatcher and
163 the aggregator function.
164 2. OpenqueryInstances added to cimcli.
|
165 karl 1.1.2.14
166 13 October 2013 CVS branch update.
167 1. Integrated bug 9786 into the branch. Note that we need to test the
168 generated statistics.
169 2. Mergeout executed to update to head of tree as of 8:00 am 13 October 2013.
170 3. Cleaned up several errors in OOP processing. Note that there is at least
171 one issue left when we to a pull on ManagedElement in at least one of the
172 namespaces.
173 4. Cleaned up some of the outstanding diagnostic code
174 5. Generally passes all tests except for one test of pullop where it is trying
175 to pull enum instances CIM_ManagedElement from a particular namespace.

177 karl 1.1.2.16 NOTE: I did not make comments here for changes in October despite the fact
178 that I did 2 mergouts, number of fixes, and a mergein.
179
|
180 karl 1.1.2.12 30 September 2013 - CVS Update
181 Mergeout head of tree up to 29 September 2013.
|
182 karl 1.1.2.10
183 29 September 2013. CVS update.
184 1. Modified calls to statisticalData.cpp to a) directly call with request
185 type, b) incorporate the open, pull, etc. messages. However, since these
186 are not part of the CIM class, we must do something special with them.
|
187 karl 1.1.2.13 See bug 9785 for full solution to this issue.
|
188 karl 1.1.2.10 2. Corrected OOP interface to enable new flag to indicate internal operations
189 and set host, etc.
190 3. Add code to CQLOperationsDispatcher and WQLOperationDispatcher to clean
191 up CIMResponseDataCounter after filtering.
192 4. Modified ProviderAgent to set Host info for some pull operations.
193 5. Added new flag to CIMBinMsgSerializer and Deserializer.
|
194 karl 1.1.2.8
|
195 karl 1.1.2.9 17 September 2013 CVS update (Actually two different updates over 3 days)
196 1. Clean up some issues in CIMMessage.h and CIMMessage.cpp
197 2. Extend OpenExecQuery to WQL and CQL processors but return not complete
198 3. Remove memory leak in EnumerationContext and EnumerationContextTable
199 handling.
200 4. Created template functions for much of the pull operations.
201 5. Reversed order of queryLanguage and query (and changed names to match
202 execQuery) in client and server. Note that these are the execQuery
203 WQL and CQL filters and NOT FQL filters.
204 6. Some code cleanup in dispatcher
205 7. Today, passes all tests in pullop but issue in alltests. For some reason
206 not finding CIMObjectManager instance. Also, leaves enumeration contexts
207 if client terminates since cleanup thread not operating.
|
208 karl 1.1.2.11 8. XML from OOP not correctly processed.
|
209 karl 1.1.2.9
|
210 karl 1.1.2.8 14 September 2013 CVS update
211 Merged out up to 25 August. Cleaned up all operations and standardized code.
212 At this point the non pull operations code is in a set of templates but the
213 pull is not yet.
214 Fixed a significant number of problems so that it appears that the operations
215 except for OpenExecQuery run stably, at least with the pullop test program.
216 Note that there is a problem in that the Interop control provider is not
217 returning its singleton wbemserver object for some reason. Causes a test
218 failure
|
219 karl 1.1.2.7
220 Fixed for 16 June CVS Update
221 1. Cleaned up the enumerationContext and Table release functions and tested
222 to confirm that we do not lose memory in either normal sequences or
223 sequences that close early. Cleaned up pullop and added more tests
|
224 karl 1.1.2.8 Taged Before: PREAUG25UPDATE and after POSTAUG25UPDATE
|
225 karl 1.1.2.4
226 Fixed for 9 June CVS update
227 1. Cleaned up code for OpenQueryInstances. Note that this is incomplete.
228 No support in WQL or CQL Operations
229 2.
230
231 What was fixed for 5 June checkin.
|
232 karl 1.1.2.3 1. Extended ResponseTest MOF for for both CMPI and C++ subclasses
233 2. Fixed issues with pullop.
234 3. Fixed temp issue with CIMResponseData size by putting in mutex. That
235 is not a permanent fix but it gets around issue probably in the control
236 of the move logic that meant counts were off.
237 4. Fixed issues in Dispatcher so that associator code works. Still messy
238 code in the dispatcher.
239 5. Changed name of Enumerationtable.h & cpp to EnumerationContextTable.*
240 6 Changed name of ResponseStressTest module, classes, etc.

264
|
265 karl 1.1.2.15 8. Not yet passing all tests but getting closer now. The major test that is
266 causing an error today is the execution of a full enumeration with the
267 forceProviders = true. This causes a client timeout sometimes.

271 karl 1.1.2.1 ===========================================
272
273 OVERVIEW:
274
275 The operation extensions for pull operations defined in the DMTF specification
276 DSP0200 V 1.4 were implemented in Pegasus effective Pegasus version 2.11
277 including Client and Server.
278
279 These operations extend the CIM/XML individual operations to operation
280 sequences where the server must maintain state between operations in a
281 sequence and the client must execute multiple operations to get the full
282 set of instances or instance paths.
283
284 The following new CIM/XML operations as defined in DSP0200 are included;
285
286 -OpenEnumerateInstances
287 -openEnumerateInstancePaths
288 -OpenReferenceInstances
289 -OpenReferenceInstancePaths
290 -OpenAssociatiorInstances
291 -OpenAssociatorInstancePaths
|
292 karl 1.1.2.16 -OpenQueryInstances
|
293 karl 1.1.2.1 -PullInstancesWithPath
294 -PullInstancePaths
|
295 karl 1.1.2.16 -PullInstances
|
296 karl 1.1.2.1 -CloseEnumeration
297 -EnumerationCount
|
298 karl 1.1.2.2 OpenExecQuery
|
299 karl 1.1.2.1
300 The following operations have not been implemented in this version of Pegasus:
301
302 -OpenQueryInstances
303
304 The following limitations on the implementation exist;
305
306 1. The filterQueryLanguage and filterQuery parameters are processed by
307 the Pegasus client but the server returns error if there is any data in
|
308 karl 1.1.2.2 either parameter. This work does not include the development of the
309 query language. Note that a separate effort to extend Pegasus to use
310 the DMTF FQL query language is in process.
|
311 karl 1.1.2.1
312 2. The input parameter continueOnError is processed correctly by the client
313 but the Pegasus server only provides for false since the server does not
314 include logic to continue processing responses after an error is
315 encountered.
316 This is consistent with the statement in the specification that use of
317 this functionality is optional and the fact that the DMTF agrees that all
318 of the issues of continuing after errors have not been clarified.
319
320 3. The operation enumerationCount is not processed by the server today since
321 a) really getting the count would be the same cost as the corresponding
322 enumeration, b) the server does not include a history or estimating
323 mechanism for this to date.
|
324 karl 1.1.2.2 NOTE: After a through review as part of the development of the next version
325 of CMPI we have concluded that this operation is probably not worth the
326 effort. Since it is optional, Pegasus will only return the unknown status
327 at this point
|
328 karl 1.1.2.1
329 Since the concept of sequences of operations linked together (open, pull, close)
330 is a major extension to the original CIM/XML operation concept of completely
331 independent operations several new pieces of functionality are implemented
332 to control interOperationTimeouts, counts of objects to be returned, etc.
333
334 TBD - Review this
335
336 CLIENT
337
338 The new operations follow the same pattern as the APIs for existing operations
339 in that:
340
341 1. All errors are handled as CIMException and Exception
342
343 2. The means of inputting parameters are the same except that there are
344 significantly more input parameters with the open operations and for the
345 first time operations return parameters as well as objects in the
346 response. Specifically the open and pull operations return values for
347 enumerationContext which is the identity for a pull sequence and
348 endOfSequence which is the marker the server sends in open and pull
349 karl 1.1.2.1 responses when it has no more objects to send.
350
351 The significant differences include:
352
353 1. Processing of parameters on responses (i.e. the endOfSequence and
354 enumerationContext parameters are returned for open and pull operations).
355
356 2. Numeric arguments (Uint32 and Uint64 include the option of NULL in some
357 cases so they are packaged inside classes Uint32Arg and Uint64Arg in the
358 client api.
359
360 3. The association and reference operations ONLY process instances. They do
361 not include the capability to return classes like reference and associator
362 do and therefore return CIMInstance rather than CIMObject.
363
364 4. Paths are returned in all cases (i.e OpenEnumerateInstances and
365 PullInstancesWithPath where they were not with EnumeratInstances.
366
367 5. The client must maintain state between operations in a sequence (using
368 the enumerationContext parameter).
369
370 karl 1.1.2.1 TBD- Are there more differences.
371
372
373 SERVER
374
375 The Pegasus server attempts to always deliver the requested number of objects
376 for any open or pull request (the specification allows for the server to
377 deliver less than the requested number of objects and specifically to return
378 zero objects on open). We felt that it was worth any extra cost in processing
379 to provide the client with exactly what it had requested.
380
381 The pegasus server always closes an enumeration sequence upon receipt of any
382 error from the providers, repository, etc. Therefore the server will reject
|
383 karl 1.1.2.2 any request that has continueOnError = true;
384
385 Expansion to allow the continue on error may be added in a future version.
386 In any case, the whole purpose of the continue on error is really to allow
387 input from good providers to be mixed with providers that return errors so
388 that generally this would mean simply changing the logic in the return mechanism
389 to not shutdown when an error is received from any given provider.
390
391 Generally we do not believe that the providers need to do much more in the
392 future to support the continueOnError other than possibly allowing the provider
393 to continue processing after it has received an error.
|
394 karl 1.1.2.1
395 PROVIDERS
396
397 This implementation requires NO changes to the existing providers. The
398 provider APIs operate just as they do with the original operations.
399
400 Because the server processing is different however, there may be some
401 behavior differences primarily because the client now controls the speed of
402 delivery of objects.
403
404 In previous versions of Pegasus, the server attempts to deliver objects as
405 rapidly as then can be put on the network. In the case of HTTP chunked requests
406 they are delivered in chunks of about 100 objects. The primary delay for the
407 providers was the processing of each segment through the server. The server
408 is blocked so that no other segment can proceed through the server until that
409 segment is processed and sent on the network.
410 In the case of non-chunkedresponses, they are completely gathered in the serve
411 and then delivered as one non-chunked response. There were no delays for the
412 providers, just lots of possible memory use in the server.
413
414 The responses from providers (delivered through the deliver(...) interface are
415 karl 1.1.2.1 gathered into segments of about 100 objects and this group of objects is moved
416 through the server to be delivered to the client.
417
418 However with the inclusion of the pull operations, The segments of objects
419 from the providers are cached in the server response path until the
420 maxObjectCount for that request (open or pull) and that number returned in a
421 non-chunked response. Thus, if the client is slow to issue pull requests,
422 the providers might be delayed at some point to reduce memory usage in the
423 server (the delay appears as slow response tothe deliver operation).
424
425 In other words, the time to process large sets of responses from the provider
426 now depends on the speed of handling the client.
427
428 It is important to remember in developing providers that the Pegasus server
429 can most efficiently process responses if they are passed from the provider
430 to the server individually or in small arrays of objects rather than the
431 provider gathering very large arrays of objects and sending them to the
432 server.

437 karl 1.1.2.1 CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
438
439 The server includes several configuration parameters to set limits on the
440 processing of pull operations. All of these configuration parameters are
441 compile time parameters rather than runtime.
442
443 1. Maximum value of minimum interoperation time. This parameter defines the
444 maximum time allowed between the return of an open or pull response and
445 the receipt of the next pull or a close operation before the server may
446 close the enumeration. The specification allows the server to set a
447 maximum interoperation time and refuse open requests that with requested
448 operationTimeout greater than that time.
449 CIM_ERR_INVALID_OPERATION_TIMEOUT
450
451 This value is set with the Pegasus environment variable
452 PEGASUS_PULL....
453
454 2. Maximum objects returned in a single open or pull operation. The server
455 can set a maximum limit on the number of objects that can be returned in
456 a single open or pull oepration with the maxObjectCount parameter.
457
458 karl 1.1.2.1 3. Whether the server allows 0 as an interoperation timeout value. The value
459 zero is s special value for the interoperationTimeout in that it tells the
460 server to not timeout any enumeration sequence.
461
462 With this value for interoperationTimeout, the only way to close an
463 enumeration sequence is to complete all of the pulls or issue the close.
464 If for some reason the sequence is not completed, that enumeration context
465 would remain open indefinitly. Since in Pegasus any open enumeration
466 context uses resources (the context object and any provider resposnes that
467 have not yet been issued in a response) it would appear that most
468 platforms would not want to allow the existence of enumeration contexts
469 that cannot be closed by the server.

471 4, maximum consecutive pull requests with 0 maxObjectCount. The use of the
472 pull operation with maxObjectCount set to zero could be used to keep an
473 enumeration context open indefinitly (this tells the server to restart the
474 interoperationTimeout but not send any objects in the response). Therefore the
475 specification allows for the server setting maximum limits on this behavior
476 and returning the error CIM_ERR_SERVER_LIMITS_EXCEEDED if this limit is
477 exceeded.
478 Note that this is maximum CONSECUTIVE pulls so that issuing a pull with
479 karl 1.1.2.1 a non-zero count resets this counter.
480
481 KS-TBD - Is this really logical since we can still block by just issuing
482 lots of zero request and an occansional request for one object.
483
484 Pegaus sets the value of this limit to 1000 and allows the implementer to
485 modify it with the PEGASUS_MAXIMUM_ZERO_OBJECTCOUNT environment variable.

494 NOTES On working with task branch.
495
496 Merge out Process
497
498 To keep our TASK branch in sync with the current head of tree we need
499 to do a regular merge out. the TaskMakefile contains the makefile
500 procedures to do this efficiently. NOTE: Following these procedures is
501 important in that you are merging out new material each time you do
502 the merge out. If you were just to repeatedly merge out, you would be
503 merging previously merged changes a second time causing a real mess.
504
505 Start with new directory and put TaskMakefile above pegasus (needed so you
506 have this file for the initial operations.
507
508 make -f TaskMakefile branch_merge_out BNAME=PEP317-pullop ## takes a long time
509
510 This checks out current head, merges it into task branch and sets tags
511 for the mergeout. Note that at the end of this step this work is
512 part of the TASK... branch.
513 karl 1.1.2.11
514 NOW check for conflicts, errors, etc. that resulted from the merge.
515 Look for conflict flags, compare the results (I use linux merge as a
516 good graphic compare tool) and build and test. When you are satisfied
517 that the merge out is clean, you can commit the results to the TASK...
518 branch
519
520 To commit the work to this into Task branch
521
522 make -f mak/TaskMakefile branch_merge_out_commit BNAME=PEP317-pullop
523
524 or manually commit and finish as follows
525
526 cvs commit
527 make -f mak/TaskMakefile branch_merge_out_finish BNAME=PEP317-pullop
528
529 ## This last step is important since it cleans up temporary tags to prepare
530 you for the next checkout
531
532 COMPARE TASKBRANCH WITH HEAD
533
534 karl 1.1.2.11 In a new pegasus work space do same as above for merge out.
535
536 make -f TaskMakefile BNAME=PEP317-pullop
537
538 This produces a result which is all of the head merged into the branch.
539 A diff of this is all the new changes to the head of tree that you will
540 include into the merge.
