Invalid index about elixir

[michaelopdenacker]

The database corruption is gone now, after deploying a freshly generated database.
It's true I don't know why the database got corrupted, but it could be a pretty long investigation. Maybe the server was rebooted while the database was getting updated. From the date that was first reported, which matches when the server was rebooted, this could be a possibility. I'd suggest to see whether this happens again before investing further time on this.
Thanks again for reporting this!

One of our servers is down. Our systems administrator will be on it soon.

Hm, are you regenerating the index right now and is that the reason why elixir is down?

My work is grinding to a halt without elixir. :)

[michaelopdenacker]

Oops, no. We haven't done anything yet.
Let me have a look...

[l1k]

Thank you so much, it's working again. My apologies for hijacking this issue.

I confirm this issue: search results for 6.3-rcX Linux are broken. Same search with 6.2 or before are fine.

I still see broken links. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.3/C/ident/path_mount has a link to https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.3/source/arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c#L3249 , but there is no line 3249 there

It seems that we're having a database corruption here, as I don't get the issue when I index a simplified tree containing only the v6.3 tag. I'm regenerating a new database to see whether this helps...
I'll keep you posted, of course!

Not sure if it's done, but for me results are still odd:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/A/ident/bsw_pwm_lookup
(look into tests, which have nothing to do with the searched symbol).

[michaelopdenacker]

Right, and that's why I wonder whether we have a corrupted database.

[tpetazzoni]

Even if it's a corrupted database, it would be nice to understand why it got corrupted. Indeed, it's not great for the on-going maintenance of Elixir to rely on having to randomly rebuild the database to fix weird issues.

[andy-shev]

v6.4 database is definitely corrupted. On top of that (dunno if it's a separate bug) the enum fields are not indexed. Ex.: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.4-rc2/C/ident/pin_config_param.

@andy-shev I opened a new bug for the "enum" issue:
