Mar 1, 2026March 2026 — Monthly summary for percona/percona-server-mongodb: Delivered a targeted bug fix to linting robustness and enhanced logging metadata. The patch ensures linting skips non-existent files and extends NamedArg with a public modifier to improve logging attributes, strengthening observability and reducing CI noise. Implemented as part of SERVER-121324 (Victim block cache) (#49634) with commit 348989f3cdceb3dd7ecce2a63c22a53e8b685548 (Co-authored-by: Yury Ershov).

Feb 1, 2026February 2026 (2026-02) monthly summary for percona/percona-server-mongodb: Delivered two core features focused on reliability and guidance, plus one critical bug fix. Key outcomes include: 1) Documentation: Resumable index builds guidance updated in the README with encryption considerations and fixed a broken link to the resumable index builds guide. 2) Index build workflow improvements for primary-driven operations to ensure correct replication intent when acquiring collections, with tests updated to reflect primary step-up behavior. 3) Data integrity verification enablement for WiredTiger, re-enabling data integrity checks during disaggregated storage operations. Impact: clearer operator guidance, safer and more predictable index builds in primary-driven scenarios, and restored data integrity checks reducing risk in disaggregated storage. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Git-driven development workflow, documentation discipline, test modernization, MongoDB WiredTiger storage engine internals, and replication semantics.

Dec 1, 2025In December 2025, contributions to percona/percona-server-mongodb focused on reliability and performance improvements in MongoDB replica sets. Delivered two high-impact changes: (1) Stabilized reliable index build coordination by fixing a race condition in the index build process, ensuring proper catalog updates and preventing premature shutdown on secondaries, and ensuring the primary commits index builds only after it has completed its own voting; implemented across two commits SERVER-114613 and SERVER-103955 with messages referencing the commits. (2) Increased validation efficiency by skipping validation for TTL-indexed collections in replica-set fixtures, speeding up validation processes with a dedicated commit SERVER-114633. These changes reduce failure modes, improve production reliability, and accelerate CI/validation cycles.

Focused on architectural improvements, reliability enhancements, and validation improvements to accelerate future storage-engine work while maintaining high availability. Key features delivered: - Core architecture refactor: Storage, replication, and validation paths reorganized to improve modularity and future storage engine support. Representative changes include moving PrepareConflictTracker into StorageExecutionContext, relocating db/catalog/validate to db/validate, shifting flow_control from storage to admission, and removing dependencies such as JournalListener on repl OpTime/WallTime and StorageRepairObserver on repl; enabling replication ownership adjustments and marker conversions for Oplog truncation. Major bugs fixed: - Stability and correctness: Safer shutdown with race-condition fixes around shutdown lifecycle and oplog visibility; ensured JournalFlusher shuts down before closing CollectionCatalog and strengthened OplogVisibilityThread synchronization. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved reliability, maintainability, and safety in core storage/replication paths, reducing risk in shutdown scenarios and enabling smoother evolution toward new storage engines. Enhanced validation and test coverage for earlier issue detection, accelerating release readiness.
