Motivation

We can try to use this repo: https://github.com/qdrant/vector-db-benchmark

After some simple patching:

We can start a kvrocks instance and run this benchmark:

python3 run.py --engines redis-default --datasets 'glove-25-angular'

Solution

Currently we'll get some coredumps in the vector indexing phase, e.g.:

Maybe we can try to solve it first.

Are you willing to submit a PR?

Thanks for helping benchmark it! I'll fix the bug ASAP

Hiii @PragmaTwice,

I have some updates on the issue. <3

I tried debugging using gdb with the following steps:

➜  kvrocks git:(unstable) ✗ gdb ./build/kvrocks
(gdb) run -c kvrocks.conf

After running python3 run.py --engines redis-default --datasets 'glove-25-angular', I reproduced the error and obtained the following backtrace:

From line 13, we can see that there is a closure attempting to access a VectorItem but failing, causing a memory leak. It turns out that it is trying to dereference a null iterator. The patch at the end will temporarily fix the crash.

However, logically, there should be no situation where deleted_node_it gets a null iterator. I suspect this issue is due to concurrent requests for index updating, where individual updates access inconsistent snapshots and mess up the node metadata. Currently, HnswIndex doesn't handle concurrency issues.

Given this, I guess addressing the consistency issue will probably in turn resolve the issue here. I saw there is a PR #2310 to solve this? And should we solve this issue after the PR is finalized and merged? Let me know if you believe there are other possibilities/solutions we should consider, as I'm not entirely certain this is the underlying cause. Thanks!

Thank you for looking into this!

I agree that it's likely related to rocksdb concurrency and transaction management. However, besides ensuring the consistency of rocksdb snapshots, do we need to consider anything else when constructing HNSW indexes in multiple threads? Should we also introduce some locks?

Yea introducing locks sounds good to me. Also I think this is probably a common issue for all index rather than only HNSW (including text index in the future if also using quite complicated algorithm?), so we probably want to have a lock mechanism applicable for all. I'll look into it these two days, and open a new issue to discuss my idea & ask for suggestions if needed
