Sam Saffron 1f47ed1ea3 PERF: message_bus will be deferred by server when flooded
The message_bus performs a fair amount of work prior to hijacking requests
this change ensures that if there is a situation where the server is flooded
message_bus will inform client to back off for 30 seconds + random(120 secs)

This back-off is ultra cheap and happens very early in the middleware.

It corrects a situation where a flood to message bus could cause the app
to become unresponsive

MessageBus update is here to ensure message_bus gem properly respects
Retry-After header and status 429.

Under normal state this code should never trigger, to disable raise the
value of DISCOURSE_REJECT_MESSAGE_BUS_QUEUE_SECONDS, default is to tell
message bus to go away if we are queueing for 100ms or longer

Sam Saffron 4dcc5f16f1 FEATURE: when under extreme load disable search
The global setting disable_search_queue_threshold
(DISCOURSE_DISABLE_SEARCH_QUEUE_THRESHOLD) which default to 1 second was
added.

This protection ensures that when the application is unable to keep up with
requests it will simply turn off search till it is not backed up.

To disable this protection set this to 0.

Sam Saffron 62141b6316 FEATURE: enable_performance_http_headers for performance diagnostics
This adds support for DISCOURSE_ENABLE_PERFORMANCE_HTTP_HEADERS
when set to `true` this will turn on performance related headers

```text
X-Redis-Calls: 10     # number of redis calls
X-Redis-Time: 1.02    # redis time in seconds
X-Sql-Commands: 102   # number of SQL commands
X-Sql-Time: 1.02      # duration in SQL in seconds
X-Queue-Time: 1.01    # time the request sat in queue (depends on NGINX)
```

To get queue time NGINX must provide: HTTP_X_REQUEST_START

We do not recommend you enable this without thinking, it exposes information
about what your page is doing, usually you would only enable this if you
intend to strip off the headers further down the stream in a proxy

Rafael dos Santos Silva 315a38e0e3 FEATURE: Allow running message_bus in a different redis instance (#7616)
Adds `DISCOURSE_MESSAGE_BUS_REDIS_ENABLED` env var, that when set
to true, will allow Discourse to connect to a different redis
instance for MessageBus needs.

When enabled you can configure the same env vars user for redis,
but prefixed by `MESSAGE_BUS`, eg:

`DISCOURSE_MESSAGE_BUS_REDIS_HOST`

Sam Saffron 6580025af9 FEATURE: add backup directory for mmdb files
This new `DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_BACKUP_PATH` can be used a secondary location
for maxmind db. That way a build machine, for example can cache it on the
host and reuse between builds.

Also per 5bfeef77 added proper error raising for download fails from
dedicated rake task

This also moves "refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days" to a global
setting, it did not make sense in a site setting

Rishabh ad6ad3f679 DEV: Remove SiteSetting.s3_force_path_style (#7210)
- s3_force_path_style was added as a Minio specific url scheme but it has never been well supported in our code base.
- Our new migrate_to_s3 rake task does not work reliably with path style urls too
- Minio has also added support for virtual style requests i.e the same scheme as AWS S3/DO Spaces so we can rely on that instead of using path style requests.
- Add migration to drop s3_force_path_style from the site_settings table

Sam 8b7a2d1cb7 FEATURE: add setting to bypass sending redis CLIENT commands
Some cloud providers (Google Memorystore) do not support any CLIENT commands

By setting :id to nil in the redis config hash we can avoid these commands.

This adds a special global setting GCE users can enable:
`DISCOURSE_REDIS_SKIP_CLIENT_COMMANDS = true`

Sam 70269c7c97 FEATURE: tighter limits on per cluster post rebakes
We have the periodical job that regularly will rebake old posts. This is
used to trickle in update to cooked markdown. The problem is that each rebake
can issue multiple background jobs (post process and pull hotlinked images)

Previously we had no per-cluster limit so cluster running 100s of sites could
flood the sidekiq queue with rebake related jobs.

New system introduces a hard limit of 300 rebakes per 15 minutes across a
cluster to ensure the sidekiq job is not dominated by this.

We also reduced `rebake_old_posts_count` to 80, which is a safer default.

Sam ded84a4b58 PERF: improve performance once logged in rate limiter hits
If "logged in" is being forced anonymous on certain routes, trigger
the protection for any requests that spend 50ms queueing

This means that ...

1. You need to trip it by having 3 requests take longer than 1 second in 10 second interval
2. Once tripped, if your route is still spending 50m queueuing it will continue to be protected

This means that site will continue to function with almost no delays while it is scaling up to handle the new load
2018-04-23 11:55:25 +10:00
Sam 59cd7894d9 FEATURE: if site is under extreme load show anon view
If a particular path is being hit extremely hard by logged on users,
revert to anonymous cached view.

This will only come into effect if 3 requests queue for longer than 2 seconds
on a *single* path.

This can happen if a URL is shared with the entire forum base and everyone
is logged on

Guo Xiang Tan a89f3160a5 Add new config to ensure backup/restore connects to PG directly.
* In `pg_dump` 10.3+ and 9.5.12+, in
  it does a `SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false)`
  which changes the state of the current connection. This is known
  to be problematic with Pgbouncer which reuses connections. As such,
  we'll always try to connect directly to PG directly during
  the backup/restore process.

Sam 70bb2aa426 FEATURE: allow specifying s3 config via globals
This refactors handling of s3 so it can be specified via GlobalSetting

This means that in a multisite environment you can configure s3 uploads
without actual sites knowing credentials in s3

It is a critical setting for situations where assets are mirrored to s3.

Sam ff49f72ad9 FEATURE: per client user tokens
Revamped system for managing authentication tokens.

- Every user has 1 token per client (web browser)
- Tokens are rotated every 10 minutes

New system migrates the old tokens to "legacy" tokens,
so users still remain logged on.

Also introduces weekly job to expire old auth tokens.
