* Check the number of rows to be updated before actually doing the query, and if it is too large, repartition the job. Due to caching and job queue lag, it is possible that the original partitioning could be pathologically inaccurate.
* Respect $wgRowsPerQuery (regression due to r47317) but increase the default from 10 to 100. It was originally chosen with a low value because I imagined that it would help reduce slave lag, but this is not generally the case since the queries may be in the same transaction.
* Fix lack of initialisation of $jobs in insertJobs() (sloppy but not a bug)
* To avoid queueing up jobs unnecessarily and to reduce the chance of jobs being repartitioned a large number of times as links are incrementally added, make the size threshold for queueing double the job size instead of equal to the job size
* Add a check of title array size to the immediate case, to avoid updating hundreds of thousands of rows when an incorrect size is stored to memcached.
* r41081 was causing the job queue to be flooded with tiny htmlCacheUpdate jobs which were less than the batch size and so, according to the original logic, should have been done immediately. This was causing template updates to be delayed even when the template has few backlinks. This is fixed.
* Introduced a shared cache called BacklinkCache with the main purpose of sharing data from these backlink queries, thus recovering the performance of r41081.
* Refactored backlink partitioning code, which in r40741 was copied from HTMLCacheUpdate to LinksUpdate with a bug intact. The bug caused every htmlCacheUpdate or refreshLinks2 job to be split into at least two pieces even when number of rows is less than the batch size.
* Fixed a bug from r40741 causing refreshLinks2 jobs with end=false to be ignored.
* Made SquidUpdate::newFromTitles() accept a TitleArray
* Add a clearFileCache() function in the place of various unlink() calls. This also clears the raw page cache.
* Fix useFileCache() for loop
* Add mType field to file cache objects
Doxygen documentation update:
* Changed alls @addtogroup to @ingroup. @addtogroup adds the comment to the group description, but doesn't add the file, class, function, ... to the group like @ingroup does. See for example http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/group__SpecialPage.html where it's impossible to see related files, classes, ... that should belong to that group.
* Added @file to file description, it seems that it should be explicitely decalred for file descriptions, otherwise doxygen will think that the comment document the first class, variabled, function, ... that is in that file.
* Removed some empty comments
* Removed some ?>
Added following groups:
* ExternalStorage
* JobQueue
* MaintenanceLanguage
One more thing: there are still a lot of warnings when generating the doc.
* Move Jobs left in JobQueue.php to their own file
* Ditch $wgCustomJobs in favour of $wgJobClasses, which acts as a dictionary and allows extensions to add custom jobs
* Standardise Job derivative constructors and update everywhere
* Make sure all overriding implementations of Job::run() return true to avoid bogus "Error" report in runJobs.php
pick up the appropriate tags, and documentation blobs for classes. This is
the same as per r20769, but with the grouping changes (e.g. removing "@{{") omitted.
Please be advised that more related documentation tweaks may follow later - e.g.
Doxygen generates a log file of warnings that is 574 Kb in size, when run over
the just the trunk/phase3 code ... eek! Thankfully, much of that is just
whining about functions without documentation ;-)
Minor doc tweaks to prevent some PHPDocumentor warnings or errors when run on the includes/ directory. PHPDocumentor uses a syntax very similar to javadoc - mostly we already use this, but there were a few scattered places that were adjusted to make them consistent with the rest of the code. In practical terms, these changes were made:
* @url becomes @link
* @fixme becomes @todo
* HTML tags in descriptions must be closed / balanced.
* @bug was removed (where the bug was long fixed), or changed into a @todo (in the few situations where the bug was still pending)
* @obsolete becomes @deprecated
* Things like "/**@{{" and "/**@}}*/" which cause "unknown tag" warnings were removed
* @access must be a valid access level.
* @desc tag not needed, removed.
* Doesn't seem to like @licence, will accept @license however.
* Use full comment block notation in a few places (i.e. open block with "/**", start each line with " *", and end block with " */")
Then additional to this, to get some class docs associated with their respective classes:
* Moved some docs to right above those classes (deleting blank lines, or moving descriptions from the file headers)
* Marked some classes without docs as "@todo document"
* (done up to "class MIMEsearchPage" on the "classtrees_MediaWiki.html" page for the includes/ directory)
* Convert "$dbw =& wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );" --> "$dbw = wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );"
* convert "$skin =& $wgUser->getSkin();" --> "$skin = $wgUser->getSkin();"
For the time being have not changed the function definitions of wfGetDB() or User::getSkin() [i.e. they are still both return-by-ref], so as to ensure the interface does not change for extensions [some of which may still be trying to run on PHP4 environments]. However presumably at some point this can be changed too.
Also includes tiny tweak to newlines in parserTests - will show 1 rather than 2 newlines between the "Reading tests from" strings when in quiet mode.
