fix(v4.0): restore plugin config tables from disk, explain skipped MCP targets#6170renecannao wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
…P targets Fixes #6167 and #6168. #6167 -- plugin-registered config_db tables were never restored at startup. ProxySQL_Admin::__insert_or_replace_maintable_select_disktable() is a hardcoded list of core tables. Plugin tables are merged into tables_defs_config for their CREATE TABLE only, so rows written by a plugin's "SAVE <X> TO DISK" verb were never read back into main. on the next boot. Persistence was therefore partial and confusing: a plugin's variables came back (they live in global_variables, which core does copy) while its own tables came back empty -- the MCP listener started, answered tools/list, and had zero targets. The copy is done chassis-side rather than per-plugin because the ordering is what makes it correct: LoadConfiguredPlugins() has already registered the schemas, admin init runs the copy, and InitConfiguredPlugins() / StartConfiguredPlugins() run after it, so a plugin's start() callback observes main. already populated. This fixes every plugin at once; the mysqlx plugin's four persisted tables had the same gap. genai_start() additionally never installed mcp_query_rules into the runtime -- only the two admin verbs did -- so rules would have stayed uninstalled even with the rows restored. It now installs them, after the listener rather than before: install_query_rules_from_admin() hands rows to Discovery_Schema only when a catalog exists, and the catalog belongs to the Query_Tool_Handler the listener creates. Profiles keep loading before the listener, since the connection pools are initialized from the target registry during listener construction. #6168 -- target profiles were dropped from the runtime map in silence. rebuild_target_auth_map_locked() excludes targets that are inactive or whose auth_profile_id does not resolve (there is no FK constraint, so the INSERT is accepted). Those rows are invisible to the query endpoint but stay visible in runtime_mcp_target_profiles, which projects the raw snapshot -- so the table showed the target, LOAD MCP PROFILES TO RUNTIME replied OK, nothing was logged, and list_targets returned []. The error string operators hit in that state named runtime_mcp_target_profiles, the one surface that contradicted it. Each dropped row is now logged with its target_id and reason; the LOAD reply reports installed/skipped counts; runtime_mcp_target_profiles gains derived read-only `effective` / `skip_reason` columns filled from the same rebuild pass that builds the map, so the view explains its own rows rather than offering a second opinion that could drift; and the misleading error string now names the mechanism instead of the table. The view keeps projecting every row, effective or not: hiding excluded rows would remove the only surface where the misconfiguration is visible. Tests: plugin_runtime_views_unit-t covers the restore seam (round trip, INSERT OR REPLACE semantics, runtime tables untouched, null/empty/missing table robustness). genai_plugin_load_unit-t covers both skip reasons end to end through the real plugin command registry. mcp_module-t adds admin level coverage including the operator fix paths (reactivate the target, create the missing auth profile). Not covered: a process restart, which the TAP framework has no mechanism for; the restart path is verified through the extracted restore seam instead.

Attach restored rules whenever the listener is created
When ProxySQL starts with mcp-enabled=false (the default), mcp_start_listener_if_enabled() returns without creating the Query_Tool_Handler catalog, so this subsequent call only updates query_rules_ and discards the result set. If MCP is later enabled with LOAD MCP VARIABLES TO RUNTIME (or listener startup initially fails and is retried), that path creates the listener but never reloads the rules, leaving all persisted query rules—including deny/error rules—unenforced until an operator manually runs LOAD MCP QUERY RULES TO RUNTIME. The rule installation needs to run whenever a new listener/catalog is successfully created, not only during genai_start().

Document the runtime projection boundary.
runtime_mcp_target_profiles and runtime_mcp_auth_profiles are chassis-owned projections. The /mcp/query endpoint reads the in-memory joined map built from main.mcp_*_profiles by LOAD MCP PROFILES TO RUNTIME. State that operators must edit the main tables and reload profiles; runtime-table changes do not change routing and may be overwritten on refresh.

Install query rules after every successful listener creation.
MCP variable, profile, and configuration reloads can start the listener without calling mcp_load_query_rules_to_runtime(). The resulting Query_Tool_Handler evaluates an empty or stale catalog, so persisted main.mcp_query_rules do not protect requests until a separate rule-load command runs.

P3: When the runtime registry is empty after startup or LOAD MCP PROFILES FROM DISK, this message incorrectly says profiles reach the endpoint only through LOAD MCP PROFILES TO RUNTIME. Describe startup and disk-loading installation paths too, so the remediation points to the actual lifecycle.

Fixes #6167 and #6168.
#6167 — plugin-registered
config_dbtables were never restored at startupProxySQL_Admin::__insert_or_replace_maintable_select_disktable()is a hardcoded list of core tables. Plugin tables are merged intotables_defs_configfor theirCREATE TABLEonly (Admin_Bootstrap.cpp:994-1019), so rows written by a plugin'sSAVE <X> TO DISKverb were never read back intomain.on the next boot.Persistence was therefore partial, which is what made it hard to diagnose: a plugin's variables came back (they live in
global_variables, which core does copy) while its own tables came back empty — the MCP listener started, answeredtools/list, and had zero targets.The copy is done chassis-side rather than per-plugin because the ordering is what makes it correct:
This fixes every plugin at once — the mysqlx plugin's four persisted tables (
mysqlx_users,mysqlx_routes,mysqlx_backend_endpoints,mysqlx_variables) had the identical gap.Second half of the same bug:
genai_start()never installedmcp_query_rulesinto the runtime — only the two admin verbs did — so rules would have stayed uninstalled even once the rows were restored. It now installs them, after the listener rather than before:install_query_rules_from_admin()hands rows toDiscovery_Schemaonly when a catalog exists, and the catalog belongs to theQuery_Tool_Handlerthe listener creates. Profiles keep loading before the listener, since the connection pools are initialized from the target registry during listener construction.#6168 — target profiles were dropped from the runtime map in silence
rebuild_target_auth_map_locked()excludes targets that areactive=0or whoseauth_profile_iddoes not resolve. There is noFOREIGN KEYonauth_profile_id, so a dangling reference is accepted by the INSERT and only manifests here. Those rows are invisible to the query endpoint but stay visible inruntime_mcp_target_profiles, which projects the raw snapshot — so the table showed the target,LOAD MCP PROFILES TO RUNTIMEreplied OK, nothing was logged, andlist_targetsreturned[]. The error string operators hit in that state namedruntime_mcp_target_profiles, the one surface that contradicted it.Four changes:
target_idand reason, plus a summary line.runtime_mcp_target_profilesgains derived read-onlyeffective/skip_reasoncolumns:target_auth_map, and copied under one rdlock with the snapshot, so the view reports the decision the query endpoint actually made rather than a second, independently-derived opinion that could drift from it.Per the discussion on #6168, the view keeps projecting every row, effective or not — hiding excluded rows would remove the only surface where the misconfiguration is visible at all.
effective=1still does not imply executable; backend reachability is resolved per request andformat_target_unavailable_error()diagnoses that separately. Called out in the schema comment and the docs.Testing

Its fixture needed updating sinceruntime_mcp_target_profilescan no longer be cloned frommcp_target_profiles.mcp_module-t— admin-level Part 5, including the operator fix paths: reactivating the target and creating the missing auth profile both move the row into the effective set. Seeds are removed and the runtime reloaded on the way out so the rest of theaigroup sees its baseline.Not covered: a process restart. The TAP framework has no mechanism for restarting ProxySQL mid-test (
start-proxysql-isolated.bashis a harness-level operation), so the restart path is verified through the extractedproxysql_restore_plugin_config_tables_from_disk()seam instead. Worth a follow-up if we ever add restart support to the harness.Local build notes (environment, not this branch):
