We cann connect() in a non-blocking mode to be able to specify a
non-standard timeout.
The problem was that we did not fetch the status from the
non-blocking connect(). We assumed that poll() would not return
a POLLIN flag if the connect failed. But on some platforms this
is not true.
After a successful poll() we do now retrieve the status value
from connect() with getsockopt(...SO_ERROR...). Now we do know
if (and how) the connect failed.
The test case for my investigation was rpl.rlp_ssl1 on an
Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 machine. Both, IPV4 and IPV6 were active.
'localhost' resolved first for IPV6 and then for IPV4. The
connection over IPV6 was blocked. rpl.rlp_ssl1 timed out
as it did not notice the failed connect(). The first read()
failed, which was interpreted as a master crash and the
connection was tried to reestablish with the same result
until the retry limit was reached.
With the fix, the connect() problem is immediately recognized,
and the connect() is retried on the second resolution for
'localhost', which is successful.
DECIMAL and TIMESTAMP used to have NUM_FLAG, but NEWDECIMAL was forgotten.
It's correct that TIMESTAMP does not have the flag nowadays (manual will be updated, connectors
developers will be notified).
The 'BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK' log event could be filtered out if the
database is not selected by --database option of mysqlbinlog command.
This can result in problem if there are some statements in the
transaction are not filtered out.
To fix the problem, mysqlbinlog will output 'BEGIN/ROLLBACK/COMMIT'
in regardless of the database filtering rules.
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
The fix proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665 introduces a performance issue
when fsyncing the master.info, relay.info and relay-log.bin* after #th events.
Although such solution has been proposed to reduce the probability of corrupted
files due to a slave-crash, the performance penalty introduced by it has
made the approach impractical for highly intensive workloads.
In a nutshell, the option --syn-relay-log proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665
simultaneously fsyncs master.info, relay-log.info and relay-log.bin* and
this is the main source of performance issues.
This patch introduces new options that give more control to the user on
what should be fsynced and how often:
1) (--sync-master-info, integer) which syncs the master.info after #th event;
2) (--sync-relay-log, integer) which syncs the relay-log.bin* after #th
events.
3) (--sync-relay-log-info, integer) which syncs the relay.info after #th
transactions.
To provide both performance and increased reliability, we recommend the following
setup:
1) --sync-master-info = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
2) --sync-relay-log = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
3) --sync-relay-log-info = 1 fsyncs it after every transaction;
Notice, that the previous setup does not reduce the probability of
corrupted master.info and relay-log.bin*. To overcome the issue, this patch also
introduces a recovery mechanism that right after restart throws away relay-log.bin*
retrieved from a master and updates the master.info based on the relay.info:
4) (--relay-log-recovery, boolean) which enables a recovery mechanism that
throws away relay-log.bin* after a crash.
However, it can only recover the incorrect binlog file and position in master.info,
if other informations (host, port password, etc) are corrupted or incorrect,
then this recovery mechanism will fail to work.
vs not null
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
The replication was generating corrupted data, warning messages on Valgrind
and aborting on debug mode while replicating a "null" to "not null" field.
Specifically the unpack_row routine, was considering the slave's table
definition and trying to retrieve a field value, where there was nothing to be
retrieved, ignoring the fact that the value was defined as "null" by the master.
To fix the problem, we proceed as follows:
1 - If it is not STRICT sql_mode, implicit default values are used, regardless
if it is multi-row or single-row statement.
2 - However, if it is STRICT mode, then a we do what follows:
2.1 If it is a transactional engine, we do a rollback on the first NULL that is
to be set into a NOT NULL column and return an error.
2.2 If it is a non-transactional engine and it is the first row to be inserted
with multi-row, we also return the error. Otherwise, we proceed with the
execution, use implicit default values and print out warning messages.
Unfortunately, the current patch cannot mimic the behavior showed by the master
for updates on multi-tables and multi-row inserts. This happens because such
statements are unfolded in different row events. For instance, considering the
following updates and strict mode:
(master)
create table t1 (a int);
create table t2 (a int not null);
insert into t1 values (1);
insert into t2 values (2);
update t1, t2 SET t1.a=10, t2.a=NULL;
t1 would have (10) and t2 would have (0) as this would be handled as a
multi-row update. On the other hand, if we had the following updates:
(master)
create table t1 (a int);
create table t2 (a int);
(slave)
create table t1 (a int);
create table t2 (a int not null);
(master)
insert into t1 values (1);
insert into t2 values (2);
update t1, t2 SET t1.a=10, t2.a=NULL;
On the master t1 would have (10) and t2 would have (NULL). On
the slave, t1 would have (10) but the update on t1 would fail.
beyond unsigned long.
BUG#44779: binlog.binlog_max_extension may be causing failure on
next test in PB
NOTE1: this is the backport to next-mr.
NOTE2: already includes patch for BUG#44779.
Binlog file extensions would turn into negative numbers once the
variable used to hold the value reached maximum for signed
long. Consequently, incrementing value to the next (negative) number
would lead to .000000 extension, causing the server to fail.
This patch addresses this issue by not allowing negative extensions
and by returning an error on find_uniq_filename, when the limit is
reached. Additionally, warnings are printed to the error log when the
limit is approaching. FLUSH LOGS will also report warnings to the
user, if the extension number has reached the limit. The limit has been
set to 0x7FFFFFFF as the maximum.
NOTE: this is the backport to next-mr.
This patch addresses the bug reported by checking wether
host argument is an empty string or not. If empty, an error is
reported to the client, otherwise continue normally.
This commit is based on the originally proposed patch and adds
a test case as requested during review as well as refines comments,
and makes test case result file less verbose (compared to previous patch).
NOTE: this is the backport to next-mr.
When using replication, the slave will not log any slow query logs queries
replicated from the master, even if the option "--log-slow-slave-statements"
is set and these take more than "log_query_time" to execute.
In order to log slow queries in replicated thread one needs to set the
--log-slow-slave-statements, so that the SQL thread is initialized with the
correct switch. Although setting this flag correctly configures the slave
thread option to log slow queries, there is an issue with the condition that
is used to check whether to log the slow query or not. When replaying binlog
events the statement contains the SET TIMESTAMP clause which will force the
slow logging condition check to fail. Consequently, the slow query logging will
not take place.
This patch addresses this issue by removing the second condition from the
log_slow_statements as it prevents slow queries to be binlogged and seems
to be deprecated.
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
The reason of the bug was incompatibile with the master side behaviour.
INSERT query on the master is allowed to insert into a table without specifying
values of DEFAULT-less fields if sql_mode is not strict.
Fixed with checking sql_mode by the sql thread to decide how to react.
Non-strict sql_mode should allow Write_rows event to complete.
todo: warnings can be shown via show slave status, still this is a
separate rather general issue how to show warnings for the slave threads.
files
NOTE: this is the backport to next-mr.
SHOW BINLOG EVENTS does not work with relay log files. If issuing
"SHOW BINLOG EVENTS IN 'relay-log.000001'" in a non-empty relay
log file (relay-log.000001), mysql reports empty set.
This patch addresses this issue by extending the SHOW command
with RELAYLOG. Events in relay log files can now be inspected by
issuing SHOW RELAYLOG EVENTS [IN 'log_name'] [FROM pos] [LIMIT
[offset,] row_count].
"load data" statements were written to the binlog as a mix of the original statement
and bits recreated from parse-info. This relied on implementation details and broke
with IGNORE_SPACES and versioned comments.
We now completely resynthesize the query for LOAD DATA for binlog (which among other
things normalizes them somewhat with regard to case, spaces, etc.).
We have already parsed the query properly, so we make use of that rather
than mix-and-match string literals and parsed items.
This should make us safe with regard to versioned comments, even those
spanning multiple tokens. Also no longer affected by IGNORE_SPACES.
All statements executed by mysql_upgrade are binlogged and then are replicated to slave.
This will result in some errors. The report of this bug has demonstrated some examples.
Master and slave should be upgraded separately. All statements executed by
mysql_upgrade will not be binlogged.
--write-binlog and --skip-write-binlog options are added into mysql_upgrade.
These options control whether sql statements are binlogged or not.
In RBR, 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS...' statement is binlogged when the table
does not exist.
In fact, 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE ...' statement should never be binlogged in RBR
no matter if the table exists or not.
This patch addresses this by checking whether we are dropping a
temporary table or not, when building the custom drop statement.
failure to cleanup of table
The test case was not dropping a table before exiting (ie, it was
not cleaning itself after execution). In this case, the warning
message stating that the test did not do a proper cleanup was
deterministic (which can be annoying).
I have found other tests cases on which mtr sporadically reports
that they have not cleaned up after execution:
- rpl_ndb_circular
- rpl_failed_optimize
In this case, the master was dropping a table but there was no
synchronization between the slave and the master.
This patch addresses the rpl_ndb_circular_simplex case by adding
the missing DROP table. The other cases are fixed by deploying
the missing sync_slave_with_master instruction.
HA_ERR_WRONG_INDEX
In RBR, disabling keys on slave table will break replication when
updating or deleting a record. When the slave thread tries to
find the row, by searching in the storage engine, it checks
whether the table has a key or not. If it has one, then the slave
thread uses it to search the record.
Nonetheless, the slave only checks whether the key exists or not,
it does not verify if it is active. Should the key be
disabled (eg, DBA has issued an ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE KEYS)
then it will result in error: HA_ERR_WRONG_INDEX.
This patch addresses this issue by making the slave thread also
check whether the key is active or not before actually using it.
Network error happened here, but it can be caused by CR_CONNECTION_ERROR,
CR_CONN_HOST_ERROR, CR_SERVER_GONE_ERROR, CR_SERVER_LOST, ER_CON_COUNT_ERROR,
and ER_SERVER_SHUTDOWN. We just check CR_SERVER_LOST here, so the test fails.
To fix the problem, check all errors that can be cause by the master shutdown.
binlog-db-db / binlog-ignore-db
InnoDB will return an error if statement based replication is used
along with transaction isolation level READ-COMMITTED (or weaker),
even if the statement in question is filtered out according to the
binlog-do-db rules set. In this case, an error should not be printed.
This patch addresses this issue by extending the existing check in
external_lock to take into account the filter rules before deciding to
print an error. Furthermore, it also changes decide_logging_format to
take into consideration whether the statement is filtered out from
binlog before decision is made.
When setting AUTOCOMMIT=1 after starting a transaction, the binary log
did not commit the outstanding transaction. The reason was that the binary
log commit function saw the values of the new settings, deciding that there
were nothing to commit.
Fixed the problem by moving the implicit commit to before the thread option
flags were changed, so that the binary log sees the old values of the flags
instead of the values they will take after the statement.
slave leaves slave unstable
Problem: when replicating from non-transactional to
transactional engine with autocommit off, no BEGIN/COMMIT
is written to the binlog. When the slave replicates, it
will start a transaction that never ends.
Fix: Force autocommit=on on slave by always replicating
autocommit=1 from the master.
But there is no Last_IO_Error reported.
On the master, if a binary log event is larger than max_allowed_packet,
ER_MASTER_FATAL_ERROR_READING_BINLOG and the specific reason of this error is
sent to a slave when it requests a dump from the master, thus leading
the I/O thread to stop.
On a slave, the I/O thread stops when receiving a packet larger than max_allowed_packet.
In both cases, however, there was no Last_IO_Error reported.
This patch adds code to report the Last_IO_Error and exact reason before stopping the
I/O thread and also reports the case the out memory pops up while
handling packets from the master.
The test case rpl_do_grant fails sporadically on PB2 with "Access
denied for user 'create_rout_db'@'localhost' ...". Inspecting the
test case, one may find that if issues a GRANT on the master
connection and immediately after it creates two new connections
(one to the master and one to the slave) using the credentials
set with the GRANT.
Unfortunately, there is no synchronization between master and
slave after the grant and before the connections are
established. This can result in slave not having executed the
GRANT by the time the connection is attempted.
This patch fixes this by deploying a sync_slave_with_master
between the grant and the connections attempt.
The test case creates two temporary tables, then closes the
connection, waits for it to disconnect, then syncs the slave with
the master, checks for remaining opened temporary tables on
slave (which should be 0) and finally drops the used
database (mysqltest).
Unfortunately, sometimes, the test fails with one open table on
the slave. This seems to be caused by the fact that waiting for
the connection to be closed is not sufficient. The test needs to
wait for the DROP event to be logged and only then synchronize
the slave with the master and proceed with the check. This is
caused by the asynchronous nature of the disconnect wrt
binlogging of the DROP temporary table statement.
We fix this by deploying a call to wait_for_binlog_event.inc
on the test case, which makes execution to wait for the DROP
temp tables event before synchronizing master and slave.
Bug#24509 - 2048 file descriptor limit on windows needs increasing, also
WL#3049 - improved Windows I/O
The patch replaces the use of the POSIX I/O interfaces in mysys on Windows with
the Win32 API calls (CreateFile, WriteFile, etc). The Windows HANDLE for the open
file is stored in the my_file_info struct, along with a flag for append mode
because the Windows API does not support opening files in append mode in all cases)
The default max open files has been increased to 16384 and can be increased further
by setting --max-open-files=<value> during the server start.
Another major change in this patch that almost all Windows specific file IO code
has been moved to a new file my_winfile.c, greatly reducing the amount of code
in #ifdef blocks within mysys, thus improving readability.
Minor enhancements:
- my_(f)stat() is changed to use __stati64 structure with 64 file size
and timestamps. It will return correct file size now (C runtime implementation
used to report outdated information)
- my_lock on Windows is prepared to handle additional timeout parameter
- after review : changed __WIN__ to _WIN32 in the new and changed code.
In RBR, There is an inconsistency between slaves and master.
When INSERT statement which includes an auto_increment field is executed,
Store engine of master will check the value of the auto_increment field.
It will generate a sequence number and then replace the value, if its value is NULL or empty.
if the field's value is 0, the store engine will do like encountering the NULL values
unless NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO is set into SQL_MODE.
In contrast, if the field's value is 0, Store engine of slave always generates a new sequence number
whether or not NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO is set into SQL_MODE.
SQL MODE of slave sql thread is always consistency with master's.
Another variable is related to this bug.
If generateing a sequence number is decided by the values of
table->auto_increment_field_not_null and SQL_MODE(if includes MODE_NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO)
The table->auto_increment_is_not_null is FALSE, which causes this bug to appear. ..
