Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
There were some discussions on Slack whether CASSANDRA-2848 should be in scope for 4.0 or not, given that its an enhancement. I'm +1 on descoping it and leave it for a later 4.x As it involves a change in the protocol, we could use non-breaking changes to add these types of features to protocol_v5 in 4.x without a protocol version bump (new flag + new SUPPORTED option), like I've proposed above.

Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
For what it’s worth, we could trivially implement support for passing down the timeout in 4.0.0, so that both the server and the client are able to parse the frames with and without them, but delay implementation of the server side logic necessary for terminating requests early until a further minor (4.1/4.0.1). > On 19 Feb 2020, at 15:39, Jorge Bay Gondra wrote: > > Also worth mentioning that, from the driver's perspective, it has to > support a protocol version during the lifetime of the C* version line.

Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
Behaviours don't have to be switched only with a new protocol version; it's possible to support optional feature/modifier flags, the support for which is negotiated with a client on connection. A protocol version change seems reasonable to limit to major releases, but a protocol feature seems perfectly reasonable to introduce in a minor, I think? Ideally a version change would only be necessary for forced deprecation/standardisation of features, behaviour and stream encodings.

Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
Given the JIRA in question, if you want to override the timeout to lower it, then the worst case if not supported yet is that you get the default timeout. So this then makes me wonder "is there a way to add metadata to a message which is ignored if unknown" (aka forward compatibility). Skimming the frame code i see we have boolean isCustomPayload = frame.header.flags.contains(Frame.Header.Flag.CUSTOM_PAYLOAD); boolean hasWarning = frame.header.flags.contains(Frame.Header.Flag.WARNING); UUID tracingId = isRequest || !isTracing ? null : CBUtil.readUUID(frame.body); List warnings = isRequest || !hasWarning ? null : CBUtil.readStringList(frame.body); Map customPayload = !isCustomPayload ? null : CBUtil.readBytesMap(frame.body); This makes me wonder if we could picky back off that for new features, that way older servers just ignore them. I have no idea of the negatives of customPayload (other than strings are more bytes for messages, evolution may be based off key names so annoying, etc.), but tags which are ignored sounds promising On Tue, Feb 18, 2020 at 1:53 PM Jeff Jirsa wrote: > A few notes: > > - Protocol changes add work to the rest of the ecosystem.

Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
A few notes: - Protocol changes add work to the rest of the ecosystem. Drivers have to update, etc. - Nobody expects protocol changes in minors, though it's less of a concern if we don't deprecate out the older version. E.g. if 4.0 launches with protocol v4 and protocol v5, and then 4.0.2 adds protocol v6, do we deprecate out v4? If yes, you potentially break clients that only supported v3 and v4 in a minor version upgrade, which is unexpected. If not, how many protocol versions are you willing to support at any given time? - Having protocol changes introduces risk.

Re: [DISCUSS] Client protocol changes (Was: 20200217 4.0 Status Update)
I don't know the technical answer, but I suspect two motivations for doing new protocol versions in major releases could include: * protocol changes can be tied to feature changes that typically come in a major release. * protocol changes should be as infrequent as major releases. Each new protocol version is another thing in the test matrix that needs to be tested. That last point can make it hard to get new changes in. If something doesn't make the upcoming protocol version, it might be years before another one, but I also think it's worth it to do this infrequently as it makes maintaining client and server code easier if there are less protocol versions to worry about. On the client-side, libraries themselves should be avoiding making Cassandra version checks when detecting capabilities. There are a few exceptions, such as system table parsing for schema & peers, but those aren't related to the protocol.

Hard to see an argument for CASSANDRA-2848 being in scope for 4.0 (beyond the client proto change being painful for anything other than major releases). > On Feb 17, 2020, at 12:43 PM, Jon Meredith wrote: > > My turn to give an update on 4.0 status.

20200217 4.0 Status Update
My turn to give an update on 4.0 status. The 4.0 board created by Josh can be found at https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355. We have 94 unresolved tickets marked against the 4.0 release. [1] Things seem to have settled into a phase of working to resolve issues, with few new issues added. 2 new tickets opened (that are marked against 4.0) 11 tickets closed (including one of the newly opened ones) 39 tickets received updates to JIRA of some kind in the last week Cumulative flow over the last couple of weeks shows todo reducing and done increasing as it should as we continue to close out work for the release. https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355=CASSANDRA=reporting=cumulativeFlowDiagram=939=936=931=1505=1506=1514=1509=1512=1507=14 Notables - Python 3 support for cqlsh has been committed (thank you all who persevered on this) - Some activity on Windows support - perhaps not dead yet. - Lots of movement on documentation - Lots of activity on flaky tests. - Oldest ticket with a patch award goes to CASSANDRA-2848 There are 18 tickets marked as patch available (easy access from the Dashboard [2], apologies if they're already picked up for review) CASSANDRA-15567 Allow EXTRA_CLASSPATH to work in tarball/source installations CASSANDRA-15553 Preview repair should include sstables from finalized incremental repair sessions CASSANDRA-15550 Fix flaky test org.apache.cassandra.streaming.StreamTransferTaskTest testFailSessionDuringTransferShouldNotReleaseReferences CASSANDRA-15488/CASSANDRA-15353 Configuration file CASSANDRA-15484/CASSANDRA-15353 Read Repair CASSANDRA-15482/CASSANDRA-15353 Guarantees CASSANDRA-15481/CASSANDRA-15353 Data Modeling CASSANDRA-15393/CASSANDRA-15387 Add byte array backed cells CASSANDRA-15391/CASSANDRA-15387 Reduce heap footprint of commonly allocated objects CASSANDRA-15367 Memtable memory allocations may deadlock CASSANDRA-15308 Fix flakey testAcquireReleaseOutbound - org.apache.cassandra.net.ConnectionTest CASSANDRA-1530 5Fix multi DC nodetool status output CASSANDRA-14973 Bring v5 driver out of beta, introduce v6 before 4.0 release is cut CASSANDRA-14939 fix some operational holes in incremental repair CASSANDRA-14904 SSTableloader doesn't understand listening for CQL connections on multiple ports CASSANDRA-14842 SSL connection problems when upgrading to 4.0 when upgrading from 3.0.x CASSANDRA-14761 Rename speculative_retry to match additional_write_policy CASSANDRA-2848 Make the Client API support passing down timeouts *LHF / Failing Tests*: We have 7 unassigned test failures that are all great candidates to pick up and get involved in: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355=CASSANDRA=1660=1661=1658 Thanks again to everybody for all the contributions.
