This commit updates default memory allocations size used with MEM_ROOT
objects to minimize the number of calls to malloc().
Changes:
- Updated MEM_ROOT block sizes in sql_const.h
- Updated MALLOC_OVERHEAD to also take into account the extra memory
allocated by my_malloc()
- Updated init_alloc_root() to only take MALLOC_OVERHEAD into account as
buffer size, not MALLOC_OVERHEAD + sizeof(USED_MEM).
- Reset mem_root->first_block_usage if and only if first block was used.
- Increase MEM_ROOT buffers sized used by my_load_defaults, plugin_init,
Create_tmp_table, allocate_table_share, TABLE and TABLE_SHARE.
This decreases number of malloc calls during queries.
- Use a small buffer for THD->main_mem_root in THD::THD. This avoids
multiple malloc() call for new connections.
I tried the above changes on a complex select query with 12 tables.
The following shows the number of extra allocations that where used
to increase the size of the MEM_ROOT buffers.
Original code:
- Connection to MariaDB: 9 allocations
- First query run: 146 allocations
- Second query run: 24 allocations
Max memory allocated for thd when using with heap table: 61,262,408
Max memory allocated for thd when using Aria tmp table: 419,464
After changes:
Connection to MariaDB: 0 allocations
- First run: 25 allocations
- Second run: 7 allocations
Max memory allocated for thd when using with heap table: 61,347,424
Max memory allocated for thd when using Aria table: 529,168
The new code uses slightly more memory, but avoids memory fragmentation
and is slightly faster thanks to much fewer calls to malloc().

Change the type of my_hash_get_key to:
1) Return const
2) Change the context parameter to be const void*

That PR uncovered countless issues on `my_snprintf` uses.
This commit backports a squashed subset of their fixes.
(Excludes previous parts #3485 and #3493)
The problem was that when using clang + asan, we do not get a correct value
for the thread stack as some local variables are not allocated at the
normal stack.
It looks like that for example clang 18.1.3, when compiling with
-O2 -fsanitize=addressan it puts local variables and things allocated by
alloca() in other areas than on the stack.
The following code shows the issue
Thread 6 "mariadbd" hit Breakpoint 3, do_handle_one_connection

r13 is pointing to the address of the thd. Probably some kind of
"local stack" used by the sanitizer
I have verified this with gdb on a recursive call that calls alloca()
in a loop. In this case all objects was stored in a local heap,
not on the stack.
To solve this issue in a portable way, I have added two functions:
my_get_stack_pointer() returns the address of the current stack pointer.
The code is using asm instructions for intel 32/64 bit, powerpc,
arm 32/64 bit and sparc 32/64 bit.
Supported compilers are gcc, clang and MSVC.
For MSVC 64 bit we are using _AddressOfReturnAddress()
As a fallback for other compilers/arch we use the address of a local
variable.
my_get_stack_bounds() that will return the address of the base stack
and stack size using pthread_attr_getstack() or NtCurrentTed() with
fallback to using the address of a local variable and user provided
stack size.
Server changes are:
- Moving setting of thread_stack to THD::store_globals() using
my_get_stack_bounds().
- Removing setting of thd->thread_stack, except in functions that
allocates a lot on the stack before calling store_globals(). When
using estimates for stack start, we reduce stack_size with
MY_STACK_SAFE_MARGIN (8192) to take into account the stack used
before calling store_globals().
I also added a unittest, stack_allocation-t, to verify the new code.

Similar to #2480.
567b681 introduced safe_strcpy() to minimize the use of C with
potentially unsafe memory overflow with strcpy() whose use is
discouraged.
Replace instances of strcpy() with safe_strcpy() where possible, limited
here to files in the `sql/` directory.

When passing in an invalid value (e.g. incorrect data type) for a variable, the
server startup will fail with misleading error messages.
The behavior **before** this change:
For server options:
- The error message will indicate that the argument is being adjusted to a valid value
- Server startup still fails
For plugin options:
- The error message will indicate that the argument is being adjusted to a valid value
- The plugin is still disabled
- Server startup fails with a message that it does not recognize the plugin option
The behavior **after** this change:
For server options:
- Output that an invalid argument was provided
- Exit server startup
For plugin options:
- Output that an invalid argument was provided
- Disable the plugin
- Attempt to continue server startup

After MDEV-31400, plugins are allowed to ask for retries when failing
initialisation. However, such failures also cause plugin system
variables to be deleted (plugin_variables_deinit()) before retrying
and are not re-added during retry.
We fix this by checking that if the plugin has requested a retry the
variables are not deleted. Because plugin_deinitialize() also calls
plugin_variables_deinit(), if the retry fails, the variables will
still be deleted.
Alternatives considered:
- remove the plugin_variables_deinit() from plugin_initialize() error
handling altogether. We decide to take a more conservative approach
here.
- re-add the system variables during retry. It is more complicated
than simply iterating over plugin->system_vars and call
my_hash_insert(). For example we will need to assign values to
the test_load field and extract more code from test_plugin_options(),
if that is possible.
Also in the startup, lets not "Error" on attempting to install a
mysql.plugin that is already there. We use the 'if_not_exists'
parameter to true to downgrade this to a "Note".
Also corrects: MDEV-32041 "plugin already loaded" should be a Warning, not an Error
Other things:
- Added DBUG_EXECUTE_IF("print_allocated_thread_memory") at end of query
to easier find not freed memory allocated by THD
- Removed free_root() from plugin_init() that did nothing.
We introduce simple plugin dependency. A plugin init function may
return HA_ERR_RETRY_INIT. If this happens during server startup when
the server is trying to initialise all plugins, the failed plugins
will be retried, until no more plugins succeed in initialisation or
want to be retried.
This will fix spider init bugs which is caused in part by its
dependency on Aria for initialisation.
The reason we need a new return code, instead of treating every
failure as a request for retry, is that it may be impossible to clean
up after a failed plugin initialisation. Take InnoDB for example, it
has a global variable `buf_page_cleaner_is_active`, which may not
satisfy an assertion during a second initialisation try, probably
because InnoDB does not expect the initialisation to be called
twice.
plugin_vars_free_values() was walking plugin sysvars and thus
did not free memory of plugin PLUGIN_VAR_NOSYSVAR vars.
* change it to walk all plugin vars
* add the pluginname_ prefix to NOSYSVARS var names too,
so that plugin_vars_free_values() would be able to find their
bookmarks
Making changes to wsrep_mysqld.h causes large parts of server code to
be recompiled. The reason is that wsrep_mysqld.h is included by
sql_class.h, even tough very little of wsrep_mysqld.h is needed in
sql_class.h. This commit introduces a new header file, wsrep_on.h,
which is meant to be included from sql_class.h, and contains only
macros and variable declarations used to determine whether wsrep is
enabled.
Also, header wsrep.h should only contain definitions that are also
used outside of sql/. Therefore, move WSREP_TO_ISOLATION* and
WSREP_SYNC_WAIT macros to wsrep_mysqld.h.

look for an installed plugin with the same name _and the same type_
(in case there are many plugins with the same name and different type,
which is, technically, possible for built-in plugins).
