Sorry for the clickbaity title. This is about static method
ConnectionTimeouts::getHTTPTimeouts(). It was be declared in header
IO/ConnectionTimeouts.h, and defined in header
IO/ConnectionTimeoutsContext.h (!). This is weird and caused issues with
linking on s390x (##45520). There was an attempt to fix some
inconsistencies (#45848) but neither did @Algunenano nor me at first
really understand why the definition is in the header.
Turns out that ConnectionTimeoutsContext.h is only #include'd from
source files which are part of the normal server build BUT NOT part of
the keeper standalone build (which must be enabled via CMake
-DBUILD_STANDALONE_KEEPER=1). This dependency was not documented and as
a result, some misguided workarounds were introduced earlier, e.g.
0341c6c54b
The deeper cause was that getHTTPTimeouts() is passed a "Context". This
class is part of the "dbms" libary which is deliberately not linked by
the standalone build of clickhouse-keeper. The context is only used to
read the settings and the "Settings" class is part of the
clickhouse_common library which is linked by clickhouse-keeper already.
To resolve this mess, this PR
- creates source file IO/ConnectionTimeouts.cpp and moves all
ConnectionTimeouts definitions into it, including getHTTPTimeouts().
- breaks the wrong dependency by passing "Settings" instead of "Context"
into getHTTPTimeouts().
- resolves the previous hacks

This makes the target location consistent with other auto-generated
files like config_formats.h, config_core.h, and config_functions.h and
simplifies the build of clickhouse_common.
- This commit restores statements "SYSTEM RELOAD MODEL(S)" which provide
a mechanism to update a model explicitly. It also saves potentially
unnecessary reloads of a model from disk after it's initial load.
To keep the complexity low, the semantics of "SYSTEM RELOAD MODEL(S)
was changed from eager to lazy. This means that both statements
previously immedately reloaded the specified/all models, whereas now
the statements only trigger an unload and the first call to
catboostEvaluate() does the actual load.
- Monitoring view SYSTEM.MODELS is also restored but with some obsolete
fields removed. The view was not documented in the past and for now it
remains undocumented. The commit is thus not considered a breach of
ClickHouse's public interface.
This commit moves the catboost model evaluation out of the server
process into the library-bridge binary. This serves two goals: On the
one hand, crashes / memory corruptions of the catboost library no longer
affect the server. On the other hand, we can forbid loading dynamic
libraries in the server (catboost was the last consumer of this
functionality), thus improving security.
SQL syntax:
SELECT
catboostEvaluate('/path/to/model.bin', FEAT_1, ..., FEAT_N) > 0 AS prediction,
ACTION AS target
FROM amazon_train
LIMIT 10
Required configuration:
<catboost_lib_path>/path/to/libcatboostmodel.so</catboost_lib_path>
*** Implementation Details ***
The internal protocol between the server and the library-bridge is
simple:
- HTTP GET on path "/extdict_ping":
A ping, used during the handshake to check if the library-bridge runs.
- HTTP POST on path "extdict_request"
(1) Send a "catboost_GetTreeCount" request from the server to the
bridge, containing a library path (e.g /home/user/libcatboost.so) and
a model path (e.g. /home/user/model.bin). Rirst, this unloads the
catboost library handler associated to the model path (if it was
loaded), then loads the catboost library handler associated to the
model path, then executes GetTreeCount() on the library handler and
finally sends the result back to the server. Step (1) is called once
by the server from FunctionCatBoostEvaluate::getReturnTypeImpl(). The
library path handler is unloaded in the beginning because it contains
state which may no longer be valid if the user runs
catboost("/path/to/model.bin", ...) more than once and if "model.bin"
was updated in between.
(2) Send "catboost_Evaluate" from the server to the bridge, containing
the model path and the features to run the interference on. Step (2)
is called multiple times (once per chunk) by the server from function
FunctionCatBoostEvaluate::executeImpl(). The library handler for the
given model path is expected to be already loaded by Step (1).
Fixes#27870

- In general, it is expected that clickhouse-*-bridges and
clickhouse-server were build from the same source version (e.g. are
upgraded "atomically"). If that is not the case, we should at least
be able to detect the mismatch and abort.
- This commit adds a URL parameter "version", defined in a header shared
by the server and bridges. The bridge returns an error in case of
mismatch.
- The version is *not* send and checked for "ping" requests (used for
handshake), only for regular requests send after handshake. This is
because the internally thrown server-side exception due to HTTP
failure does not propagate the exact HTTP error (it only stores the
error as text), and as a result, the server-side handshake code
simply retries in case of error with exponential backoff and finally
fails with a "timeout error". This is reasonable as pings typically
fail due to time out. However, without a rework of HTTP exceptions,
version mismatch during ping would also appear as "timeout" which is
too misleading. The behavior may be changed later if needed.
- Note that introducing a version parameter does not represent a
protocol upgrade itself. Bridges older than the server will simply
ignore the field. Only servers older than the bridges receive an error
but such a situation should never occur in practice.
- When catboost will be added into library-bridge later on, a lot of
code will need to be duplicated.
- Avoid that by factorizing stuff which is not specific to external
dictionaries for reuse into a common base class.
- This is a refactoring without semantic change.
- ExternalDictionaryLibraryBridgeHelper provides the server-side
interface to access the dictionary part of the library bridge.
- In a later commit, CatBoostLibraryBridgeHelper will be added to access
the catboost part of the library bridge from the server.
Wall of text, sorry, but I also had to document some stuff for myself:
There are three ways to communicate data using HTTP:
- the HTTP verb: for our purposes, PUT and GET,
- the HTTP path: '/ping', '/request' etc.,
- the HTTP URL parameter(s), e.g. 'method=libNew&dictionary_id=1234'
The bridge will use different handlers for communication with the
external dictionary library and for communication with the catboost
library. Handlers are created based on a combination of the HTTP verb
and the HTTP method. More specifically, there will be combinations
- GET + '/extdict_ping'
- PUT + '/extdict_request'
- GET + '/catboost_ping'
- PUT + '/catboost_request'.
For each combination, the bridge expects a certain set of URL
parameters, e.g. for the first combination parameter "dictionary_id" is
expected.
Starting with this commit, the library-bridge creates handlers based on
the first two combinations (the latter two combinations will be added
later). This makes the handler creation mechanism consistent with it's
counterpart in xdbc-bridge.
For that, it was necessary to make both IBridgeHelper methods
"getMainURI()" and "getPingURI()" pure virtual so that derived classes
(LibraryBridgeHelper and XDBCBridgeHelper) must provide custom URLs with
custom paths.
Side note 1: Previously, LibraryBridgeHelper sent HTTP URL parameter
"method=ping" during handshake (PING) but the library-bridge ignored
that parameter. We now omit this parameter, i.e.
LibraryBridgeHelper::PING was removed. Again, this makes things
consistent with xdbc-bridge.
Side note 2: xdbc-bridge is unchanged in this commit. Therefore,
XDBCBridgeHelper now uses the HTTP paths previously in the base class.
For funny reason, XDBCBridgeHelper did not use
IBridgeHelper::getMainURI() - it generates the URLs by itself. I kept it
that way for now but provided an implementation of getMainURI() anyways.
- Rename generic file and identifier names in library-bridge to
something more dictionary-specific. This is needed because later on,
catboost will be integrated into library-bridge.
- Also: Some smaller fixes like typos and un-inlining non-performance
critical code.
- The logic remains unchanged in this commit.
