* MM-11431: handle plugin deadlocks (#9167)Jesse Hallam2018-07-271-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * ensure plugin is always shutdown Once we call `.client.Client()` the plugin has started, and must be shut down. `newSupervisor` sometimes returned with an error (and without a reference to the supervisor), leaving the client running indefinitely. * Clarify the documentation to explain that plugin hooks will not trigger until `OnActivate` returns successfully, and will stop triggering just before `OnDeactivate` is called. * test for plugin deadlock * plugin/environment.go: switch to sync.Map From: https://golang.org/pkg/sync/#Map > If a goroutine holds a RWMutex for reading and another goroutine might call Lock, no goroutine should expect to be able to acquire a read lock until the initial read lock is released. In particular, this prohibits recursive read locking. This is to ensure that the lock eventually becomes available; a blocked Lock call excludes new readers from acquiring the lock. The previous `RWMutex` was not safe given that we effectively acquired read locks recursively (hook -> api -> hook). This worked up until we activated or deactivated plugins, tried to acquire a write lock, and the plugin used the API to effectively trigger another hook. Switching to sync.Map avoids this by divesting the need to lock at all, avoiding the potential for a recursive lock in the first place.
* MM-11366: support a plugin bundle with multiple executables (#9121)Jesse Hallam2018-07-171-1/+5
| | | This avoids the need to distribute multiple plugins per architecture.
* MM-11292: clean up plugins GoDoc (#9109)Jesse Hallam2018-07-131-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * clean up plugins GoDoc: - eliminate plugin.NewBlankContext() as unnecessary - export ValidIdRegex as a string vs. the less readable var - add/update various documentation strings - hide everything by default, except where used by client plugins or the mattermost-server. The exception to this rule are the `*(Args|Returns)` structs which must be public for go-plugin, but are now prefixed with `Z_` with a warning not to use. - include a top-level example to get plugin authors started This is not a breaking change for existing plugins compiled against plugins-v2. * remove commented out ServeHTTPResponseWriter * update examples to match developer docs * add missing plugin/doc.go license header
* MM-11029 Adding plugin logging functionality. (#9034)Christopher Speller2018-07-031-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | * Capturing stdout, stderr of plugins in logs. * Cleanup go-plugin debug logs. * Adding logging to plugin API * Generating mocks. * godoc convention
* MM-10702 Moving plugins to use hashicorp go-plugin. (#8978)Christopher Speller2018-06-251-8/+94
| | | | | | * Moving plugins to use hashicorp go-plugin. * Tweaks from feedback.
* MM-8622: Improved plugin error reporting (#8737)Jesse Hallam2018-05-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * allow `Wait()`ing on the supervisor In the event the plugin supervisor shuts down a plugin for crashing too many times, the new `Wait()` interface allows the `ActivatePlugin` to accept a callback function to trigger when `supervisor.Wait()` returns. If the supervisor shuts down normally, this callback is invoked with a nil error, otherwise any error reported by the supervisor is passed along. * improve plugin activation/deactivation logic Avoid triggering activation of previously failed-to-start plugins just becase something in the configuration changed. Now, intelligently compare the global enable bit as well as the each individual plugin's enabled bit. * expose store to manipulate PluginStatuses * expose API to fetch plugin statuses * keep track of whether or not plugin sandboxing is supported * transition plugin statuses * restore error on plugin activation if already active * don't initialize test plugins until successfully loaded * emit websocket events when plugin statuses change * skip pruning if already initialized * MM-8622: maintain plugin statuses in memory Switch away from persisting plugin statuses to the database, and maintain in memory instead. This will be followed by a cluster interface to query the in-memory status of plugin statuses from all cluster nodes. At the same time, rename `cluster_discovery_id` on the `PluginStatus` model object to `cluster_id`. * MM-8622: aggregate plugin statuses across cluster * fetch cluster plugin statuses when emitting websocket notification * address unit test fixes after rebasing * relax (poor) racey unit test re: supervisor.Wait() * make store-mocks
* call OnActivate after plugin crash, update example (#7940)Chris2017-12-051-1/+1
