Open the cache later to avoid scanning it twice if a connection is
made right away.

ClientStorage.close() is now idempotent.

ClientStorage stores its addr argument as self._addr so the test suite
doesn't have to dig it out of the rpc manager to reopen the storage as
readonly.

Renamed some of the callbacks into the client for clarity:
begin -> beginVerify
end -> endVerify
invalidate -> invalidateVerify
Invalidate -> invalidateTrans

Also refactor the test code to use _abortVersion() and _commitVersion().

Note that the checkModifyAfterAbortVersion() test still fails; Jeremy
wants to change abortVersion in FileStorage and DemoStorage to revert
the serialno to the last nonversion serialno instead of assigning a
brand new serialno, so I'm holding off on invalidating the cache in
ClientStorage.abortVersion.

Also note that on Red Hat 7.2, the ZEO test suite hangs in
checkCommitLock2OnAbort or checkCommitLock2OnCommit; we'll try to
debug this later today.

serials. Modified FileStorage and DemoStorage to pass this test.

In checkSize(), delete the half of the index that's no longer valid.

erase the half of the _index dict that is invalidated by the flip.

identification harder, especially when generic test classes are
inherited by multiple specific test classes.)

- Document the correct persistent filenames and the presence of a
  magic number at the start of the file.  (Also document the
  conditions under which the cache is persistent.)

- In __init__(), seek to the correct position to read the first
  record's serialno.  It was reading the last byte of dlen plus the
  first 7 bytes of the serialno.

- In invalidate(), fix the seek call after the read(8) to actually
  seek to the status byte.  It was seeking 8 bytes too far, causing it
  to overwrite the 2nd byte of dlen instead of the status byte.

This will cause three failures with the current version of
ClientCache.py, because some of the tests were specifically written to
verify certain bugs.  I will check in fixes for thse bugs shortly.

Use STUPID_LOG_FILE instead of EVENT_LOG_FILE so that it works with
older Zopes.

Make sure buf1 is defined even if open() never succeeds.

The one in ZEO/trigger.py was the good code, but we want it to live in
ZEO/zrpc/trigger.py.  This checkin makes that change.

The key checkin of ZEO/trigger.py had this checkin comment:
Fix trigger close/__del__.

The close() mechanism for an asyncore file_dispatcher is not safe to
call multiple times.  It's calling os.close() on a file descriptor
(int).  Guido observed that if you call close() twice, you could be in
trouble:  1) First close() call closes FD 6.  2) Another bit of code
opens a new file, getting FD 6.  3) Second close() call closes FD 6.
Waah!  FD 6 is some other file.

The workaround attempt here is to define a close() method on a trigger
that only closes the file descriptors the first time.

Also, make sure that both file descriptors are closed.  The previous
version only closed the read-end of the pipe.

Boost the accumulator limit to 60000.
Use "".join() to accumulate multiple strings, since it is not unusual
to have more than 2 strings to join together.

Add comment explaining why we do this stuff.

StorageTransactionError.  This exception is raised when a transaction
exhausts some finite storage resource.  E.g. a transaction changing a
huge number of objects could fill a Berkeley lock table.

Also, removed some unnecessary `pass' statements, and improved
consistency in class docstrings (first line is a complete sentence).

Use this method to set self._transaction to None and notify another
thread.

Not only can we move the assignment of self._transaction about the
timestamp / id initialization, but we can eliminate the test for
self._server being None.  It will never be None.

self._server is the first instance variable initialized by
__init__().  It is also assigned to in notifyConnected() and
notifyDisconnected(), which do not assign it to None.

_basic_init():  repair tpc_cond comments in light of recent changes.
tpc_begin:  when self._server is None, do tpc_cond.notify() to let
other threads waiting for "_transaction is None" to continue.

anymore.  Tried to fix that.  Jeremy, please review the new XXX comments.

depending on whether the full or a partial test suite was run.  In
particular, in my case there was a EVENT_LOG_FILE turd left in the
environment which was causes StupidLogTest's checkBasics to fail.

The fix is to wipe the environment in both the setup and the tear
down, although I wonder why EventLogTest's teardown didn't clean
things up properly.  Hmm, with this patch the test suite succeeds.

use that everywhere internally instead of setting the global _log_dest
directly.

clause.

The order in which the tpc_finish() method of the jars is called is
dependent on the order in which objects are returned from
dict.values().  There is no way to write a test that works on all
platforms that produces a consistent result in dict.values(), so stop
trying.

Instead, have the jars explicitly coordinate their tpc_finish()
methods so that the first call always succeeds and the second call
always fails.

The main idea in the bug fix is to recover more gracefully when
something goes wrong trying to load classes for conflict resolution.
