add a BadgerDB backend #115

mvdan · 2020-06-30T17:50:57Z

With multiple commits, to show the incremental changes on top of Anton's work in
early 2019.

Updates #38.

Taken from https://gist.github.com/melekes/85b8c07dd917828dc2ac6696129b73f2 as of June 2020, plus 'go mod tidy' to add the dependencies.

Mainly, many now return errors, so we can get rid of all panics. Also add the missing BackendType.

The commented out code might be useful in the future, but it's in the git history anyway.

FYI @melekes @erikgrinaker @marbar3778

mvdan · 2020-06-30T17:56:09Z

CI is failing because interfacer is complaining about an unexported function. You should disable that linter altogether - that warning isn't particularly useful :)

melekes

great work @mvdan 👍

badger_db.go

tac0turtle

could badger_db.go be broken out to match the file structure of other dbs?

mvdan · 2020-07-01T10:28:52Z

badger_db.go is under 300 lines, so I would generally not split it up. The current file structure seems a bit weird to me, with over a dozen files under 100 lines, and over 30 files total. But if you strongly prefer consistency, I can split it up.

mvdan · 2020-07-01T10:30:30Z

Two follow-up comments:

The tests here are passing, but I assume something will fail once tendermint is properly tested with this code. Can someone with more tendermint experience help?
It would be interesting to get some benchmark numbers. I can help if you can point me at a benchmark that is bottlenecked by the database, and that reflects somewhat realistic usage.

it should be fine since there will be a followup to restructuring the package.

Awesome, thanks @mvdan! Can you add a README description and changelog entry as well please?

The Tendermint end-to-end tests pass, but IAVL fails with a panic. I believe this is caused by the lack of iter.Valid() checks, we should add a tm-db test case for this as well:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference [recovered]
	panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x40 pc=0x45102e6]

The best option would probably be Cosmos SDK simulations, which use tm-db via IAVL. I'm not very familiar with these though, as it's managed by a different team.

For sure.

The Tendermint end-to-end tests pass, but IAVL fails with a panic.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Sounds good - I'll wait for someone from that team to give some insight, then. Benchmarking should probably come once the reviews are done.

erikgrinaker · 2020-07-06T10:49:06Z

@alexanderbez Do you have any SDK sims that would be suitable for benchmarking database backends with realistic workloads?

alexanderbez · 2020-07-06T13:13:42Z

Only thing that comes to mind is simulation benchmarking, which you can look into. Although, you should be able to get away with a pretty easy one-off benchmark, where you create a simapp with a corresponding backend, begin block, deliver txs, end block, commit, repeat.

erikgrinaker · 2020-07-06T14:03:59Z

Thanks Bez. I don't think benchmarks are necessary to merge this, especially since we don't really have a good general-purpose benchmarking suite at the moment. If you want to spend some time on it @mvdan then it's definitely welcome, but otherwise we can punt it and do some performance optimizations later if necessary.

Passing all the relevant tests.

It's been deprecated for years and for good reason. The warning it was showing in this branch wasn't useful.

mvdan · 2020-07-08T21:02:05Z

How did you run those iavl tests, beyond replacing the tm-db module with my branch? I assume you had to make some change somewhere to use the badger backend, because I don't think iavl tests against all tm-db backends.

Also, your suspicion about that missing iter.Valid call was spot on - I added a couple of iterator test cases on an empty database, and got the same panic as you did:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference [recovered]
	panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x30 pc=0x81d47d]

Should be all good to go, I think, unless there are other iavl panics or errors.

mvdan · 2020-07-08T21:03:18Z

Also, I've kept multiple commits, but I've also merged some changes together to not explode this into 15 commits. I think this is nicer as a series of commits than as a single commit conflating my work with Anton's.

erikgrinaker · 2020-07-09T09:43:32Z

Thanks @mvdan! IAVL tests pass - to run them, I point go.mod to a local clone and manually update TestRandomOperations to use BadgerDB.

Could you update the README and CHANGELOG as well please?

Thanks! We prefer to squash-merge PRs, since this makes it easier to e.g. cherry-pick or revert them.

mvdan · 2020-07-09T10:08:37Z

Whoops, forgot about those. Done.

Thanks! We prefer to squash-merge PRs, since this makes it easier to e.g. cherry-pick or revert them.

Of course - I would probably go for the same :) Do you want me to squash myself then, to provide a good commit message on the squashed commit? Or are you OK with a squashed commit message that simply lists all original commit messages?

erikgrinaker · 2020-07-09T10:10:42Z

Thanks! I can squash-merge it.
