 15 Mar 2022, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, mhttpd ipv6 bind should be fixed now
|
Something changed after my initial implementation of ipv6 in mhttpd
and listening to ipv6 http/https connections was broken.

22 Mar 2022, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, fix for event buffer corruption in bm_flush_cache()
|
multithreaded frontends have an unusual event buffer corruption if the write
cache is enabled. For a long time now I had to disable the write cache on
all multithreaded frontends in alpha-g, I was hitting this bug quite often.

|
Thanks Konstantin for your detailed description.
I wonder why we never saw this problem at PSI. Here is the reason: In multil-threaded environments, we never call bm_send_event() directly

Thanks for the investigation. Back in 2020, we had some issues of losing data between the system buffer and the logger writing them to disk (https://daq00.triumf.ca/elog-midas/Midas/1966).
This was polled equipment but we had a multithreaded FE running at the same time. Could this be related to the same problem?

I confirm, there is no problem in single-threaded programs, and
there is no problem if all bm_send_event() and bm_flush_cache() are called
from the same thread.

the mhttpd bug should be fixed now (branch feature/buffer_mutex).

for google chrome, it is easy, open the javascript debugger (left-click "inspect"),

29 Mar 2022, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, mdump can read lz4 and bz2 files now
|
I converted mdump file i/o from older mdsupport library to newer midasio library
and it can now read .mid, .mid.gz, .mid.lz4 and .mid.bz2 files. Output should be
identical to what it printed before, if you see any differences, please report
