Detailed Description

DHCP-DDNS Application Process.

D2Process provides the top level application logic for DHCP-driven DDNS update processing. It provides the asynchronous event processing required to receive DNS mapping change requests and carry them out. It implements the DProcessBase interface, which structures it such that it is a managed "application", controlled by a management layer.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ checkQueueStatus()

void isc::d2::D2Process::checkQueueStatus ( )

protectedvirtual

Monitors current queue manager state, takes action accordingly.

This method ensures that the queue manager transitions to the state most appropriate to the operational state of the D2Process and any events that may have occurred since it was last called. It is called once for each iteration of the event loop. It is essentially a switch statement based on the D2QueueMgr's current state. The logic is as follows:

If the state is D2QueueMgr::RUNNING, and the queue manager needs to be reconfigured or we have been told to shutdown, then instruct the queue manager to stop listening. Exit the method.

If the state is D2QueueMgr::STOPPED_QUEUE_FULL, then check if the number of entries in the queue has fallen below the "resume threshold". If it has, then instruct the queue manager to start listening. Exit the method.

If the state is D2QueueMgr::STOPPED_RECV_ERROR, then attempt to recover by calling reconfigureQueueMgr(). Exit the method.

If the state is D2QueueMgr::STOPPING, simply exit the method. This is a NOP condition as we are waiting for the IO cancel event

For any other state, (NOT_INITTED,INITTED,STOPPED), if the reconfigure queue flag is set, call reconfigureQueueMgr(). Exit the method.

This method is exception safe.

If we need to reconfigure the queue manager or we have been told to shutdown, then stop listening first. Stopping entails canceling active listening which may generate an IO event, so instigate the stop and get out.

Resume receiving once the queue has decreased by twenty percent. This is an arbitrary choice.

Todo: this value should probably be configurable.

If the receive error is not due to some fallout from shutting down then we will attempt to recover by reconfiguring the listener. This will close and destruct the current listener and make a new one with new resources.

Todo: This may need a safety valve such as retry count or a timer to keep from endlessly retrying over and over, with little time in between.

We are waiting for IO to cancel, so this is a NOP.

Todo: Possible timer for self-defense? We could conceivably get into a condition where we never get the event, which would leave us stuck in stopping. This is hugely unlikely but possible?

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ configure()

isc::data::ConstElementPtr isc::d2::D2Process::configure	(	isc::data::ConstElementPtr	config_set,
		bool	check_only = false )

virtual

Processes the given configuration.

This method may be called multiple times during the process lifetime. Certainly once during process startup, and possibly later if the user alters the configuration. This method must not throw, it should catch any processing errors and return a success or failure answer as described below.

This method passes the newly received configuration to the configuration manager instance for parsing. The configuration manager parses the configuration and updates the necessary values within the context, assuming it parses correctly. If that's the case this method sets the flag to reconfigure the queue manager and returns a successful response as described below.

If the new configuration fails to parse, then the current configuration is retained and a failure response is returned as described below.

Parameters

config_set	a new configuration (JSON) for the process
check_only	true if configuration is to be verified only, not applied

Returns: an Element that contains the results of configuration composed of an integer status value (0 means successful, non-zero means failure), and a string explanation of the outcome.

(

Todo: NOTE This could be turned into a bitmask of flags if we find other things that need reconfiguration. It might also be useful if we did some analysis to decide what if anything we need to do.)

◆ init()

void isc::d2::D2Process::init ( )

virtual

Called after instantiation to perform initialization unique to D2.

This is invoked by the controller after command line arguments but PRIOR to configuration reception. The base class provides this method as a place to perform any derivation-specific initialization steps that are inappropriate for the constructor but necessary prior to configure. For D2 it is used to initialize the command manager.

This method is exception safe.

Todo: This method assumes only 1 type of listener. This will change to support at least a TCP version, possibly some form of RDBMS listener as well.

Warn the user if the server address is not the loopback.

Todo: Remove this once we provide a secure mechanism.

Todo: Add TCP/IP once it's supported

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ run()

void isc::d2::D2Process::run ( )

virtual

Implements the process's event loop.

Once entered, the main control thread remains inside this method until shutdown. The event loop logic is as follows:

while should not shutdown {
   process queue manager state change
   process completed jobs
   dequeue new jobs
   wait for IO event(s)
 
   ON an exception, exit with fatal error
}

To summarize, each pass through the event loop first checks the state of the received queue and takes any steps required to ensure it is operating in the manner necessary. Next the update manager is given a chance to clean up any completed transactions and start new transactions by dequeuing jobs from the request queue. Lastly, it allows IOService to process until one or more event handlers are called. Note that this last step will block until at least one ready handler is invoked. In other words, if no IO events have occurred since it was last called, the event loop will block at this step until an IO event occurs. At that time we return to the top of the loop.

Exceptions

DProcessBaseError if an error is encountered. Note that exceptions thrown at this point are assumed to be FATAL exceptions. This includes exceptions generated but not caught by IO callbacks. Services which rely on callbacks are expected to be well behaved and any errors they encounter handled internally.

Todo

if queue isn't empty, we may need to persist its contents this might be the place to do it, once there is a persistence mgr. This may also be better in checkQueueStatus.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ runIO()

size_t isc::d2::D2Process::runIO ( )

protectedvirtual

Allows IO processing to run until at least callback is invoked.

This method is called from within the D2Process main event loop and is the point at which the D2Process blocks, waiting for IO events to cause IO event callbacks to be invoked.

If callbacks are ready to be executed upon entry, the method will return as soon as these callbacks have completed. If no callbacks are ready, then it will wait (indefinitely) until at least one callback is executed.

Note: : Should become desirable to periodically force an event, an interval timer could be used to do so.

Returns: The number of callback handlers executed, or 0 if the IO service has been stopped.

Exceptions

This	method does not throw directly, but the execution of callbacks invoked in response to IO events might. If so, these will propagate upward out of this method.

Initiates the D2Process shutdown process.

This is last step in the shutdown event callback chain. It is invoked to notify D2Process that it needs to begin its shutdown procedure. Note that shutting down may be neither instantaneous nor synchronous, This method records the request for and the type of shutdown desired. Generally it will require one or more subsequent events to complete, dependent on the type of shutdown requested. The type of shutdown is specified as an optional argument of the shutdown command. The types of shutdown supported are:

"normal" - Stops the queue manager and finishes all current transactions before exiting. This is the default.
"drain_first" - Stops the queue manager but continues processing requests from the queue until it is empty.
"now" - Exits immediately.

Parameters

args	Specifies the shutdown "type" as "normal", "drain_first", or "now"

Returns: an Element that contains the results of argument processing, consisting of an integer status value (0 means successful, non-zero means failure), and a string explanation of the outcome.
