In `@src/qos.c`:
- Around line 70-72: The parseSubnetList function unconditionally dereferences
the output pointers subnets and count without validating them first, which will
cause a segfault if NULL pointers are passed. Add NULL pointer validation at the
beginning of the parseSubnetList function to check if either the subnets or
count parameters are NULL, and if so, return -1 to match the behavior of other
QoS helper functions. This validation must occur before the existing lines that
dereference these pointers.

I think there is a difference between this new feature and the existing Valkey configuration/methodology. This feature envisions "priority clients" as something new and independent from "maxclients". However, in Valkey, it's implied that Current documentation states: This clearly mixes/equates "client" with "connection". The text above this talks about the FILE LIMIT and once reached will close new CONNECTIONS. All very confusing. Would it be simpler and more consistent to consider |

I don't think Qos is an independent unit worth it's own file. The subnet parsing should go to anet.c or a utility file. The admission control should just live in networking.c and server.c. There are definitely ways to chunk this up better, but I don't think this is the way

Remove three entries whose changes shipped before 9.2.0, so 9.1 users don't see them advertised as new: - #3533 (dismissHashtable madvise size) was backported to 9.1 and is in the 9.1.0, 9.1.1 and 9.1.2 tags. It was added here by mistake. - #3551 (hashtable iterator invalidate on exhaustion) is likewise in 9.1.0; it just never made the 9.1 notes. - #3586 (valkey-cli --cluster fix slot spreading) is already documented in both the 9.0 and 9.1 release notes and shipped in 9.0.6 and 9.1.0. Fix the #4076 config name: the registered config is priority-preemptive-poll-interval-us, not preemptive-poll-interval-us, so the name as written would be rejected by CONFIG SET. Rewrite the #4005 entry, which described only the internal tagging. The user-facing surface is two new configs, priority-subnets and maxclients-reserved, which together cap normal clients at maxclients minus the reserved count so administrative clients keep guaranteed slots, plus a connected_priority_clients field in INFO clients. Move the sorted set B+ tree note (#4359) back to Performance. Listing it as a behavior change for its OBJECT ENCODING output while #3212 changes hash encoding output from hashtable to listpack in the Performance section was inconsistent; both now sit together. Drop the Redis comparison from the #4629 entry, which no other entry in the 9.0, 9.1 or 9.2 notes makes. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>
Implementing the proposal issue #3918
In this PR we are just focusing on tagging the admin connections as prioritized if it matches the CIDR ranges and related configs, the whole logic of processing the prioritized events and observability is still depends on #4076.
