"Federated INSERT failures"
Federated does not correctly handle "INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE"
However, implementing such support is not reasonably possible without
increasing complexity of the storage engine: checking that constraints
on remote server match local server and parsing error messages.
This patch causes 'ON DUPLICATE KEY' to fail with ER_DUP_KEY message
if a conflict occurs and not to fail silently.
Sometimes the number of really updated rows (with changed
column values) cannot be determined at the server level
alone (e.g. if the storage engine does not return enough
column values to verify that). So the only dependable way
in such cases is to let the storage engine return that
information if possible.
Fixed the bug at server level by providing a way for the
storage engine to return information about wether it
actually updated the row or the old and the new column
values are the same. It can do that by returning
HA_ERR_RECORD_IS_THE_SAME in ha_update_row().
Note that each storage engine may choose not to try to
return this status code, so this behaviour remains
storage engine specific.
The method select_insert::send_error does two things, it rolls back a statement
being executed and outputs an error message. But when a
nonexistent column is referenced, an error message has been published already and
there is no need to publish another.
Fixed by moving all functionality beyond publishing an error message into
select_insert::abort() and calling only that function.
When the INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE has to update a matched row but
the new data is the same as in the record then it returns as if
no rows were inserted or updated. Nevertheless the row is silently
updated. This leads to a situation when zero updated rows are reported
in the case when data has actually been changed.
Now the write_record function updates a row only if new data differs from
that in the record.
Coding style: classes start with a capital letter.
Rename some classes related to parsing:
create_field -> Create_field
foreign_key -> Foreign_key
key_part_spec -> Key_part_spec
flag is set.
When the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set then the server should return
found number of rows independently whether they were updated or not.
But this wasn't the case for the INSERT statement which always returned
number of rows that were actually changed thus providing wrong info to
the user.
Now the select_insert::send_eof method and the mysql_insert function
are sending the number of touched rows if the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set.
Moving code to check storage engine capabilities to after tables
are locked. Moving code to cache table flags so that table flags
are read from the storage engine at the beginning of the statement
in addition to when the storage engine is opened.
To handle CREATE-SELECT, the decision function is called after the
table is created and it is called with all tables that are in the select
part of the statement as well as the newly created table.
Refining the tests since pb revealed the older version's fragality - the error from SF() due to killed
may be different on different env:s.
DBUG_ASSERT instead of assert.
The reason for the bug was that replaying of a query on slave could not be possible since its event
was recorded with the killed error. Due to the specific of handling INSERT, which per-row-while-loop is
unbreakable to killing, the query on transactional table should have not appeared in binlog unless
there was a call to a stored routine that got interrupted with killing (and then there must be an error
returned out of the loop).
The offered solution added the following rule for binlogging of INSERT that accounts the above
specifics:
For INSERT on transactional-table if the error was not set the only raised flag
is harmless and is ignored via masking out on time of creation of binlog event.
For both table types the combination of raised error and KILLED flag indicates that there
was potentially partial execution on master and consistency is under the question.
In that case the code continues to binlog an event with an appropriate killed error.
The fix relies on the specified behaviour of stored routine that must propagate the error
to the top level query handling if the thd->killed flag was raised in the routine execution.
The patch adds an arg with the default killed-status-unset value to Query_log_event::Query_log_event.
- A race condition caused brief unavailablility when trying to acccess
a table.
- The variable 'grant_option' was removed to resolve the race condition and
to simplify the design pattern. This flag was originally intended to optimize
grant checks.
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
The problem reported is a compile bug,
reported by the development GCC team with GCC 4.2.
The original issue can no longer be reproduced in MySQL 5.1,
since the configure script no longer define HAVE_ATOMIC_ADD,
which caused the Linux atomic functions to be used (and cause a problem
with an invalid cast).
This patch implements some code cleanup for 5.1 only, which was identified
during the investigation of this issue.
With this patch, statistics maintained in THD::status_var are by definition
owned by the running thread, and do not need to be protected against race
conditions. These statistics are maintained by the status_var_* helpers,
which do not require any lock.
Bug#21483 "Server abort or deadlock on INSERT DELAYED with another
implicit insert"
Also fixes and adds test cases for bugs:
20497 "Trigger with INSERT DELAYED causes Error 1165"
21714 "Wrong NEW.value and server abort on INSERT DELAYED to a
table with a trigger".
Post-review fixes.
Problem:
In MySQL INSERT DELAYED is a way to pipe all inserts into a
given table through a dedicated thread. This is necessary for
simplistic storage engines like MyISAM, which do not have internal
concurrency control or threading and thus can not
achieve efficient INSERT throughput without support from SQL layer.
DELAYED INSERT works as follows:
For every distinct table, which can accept DELAYED inserts and has
pending data to insert, a dedicated thread is created to write data
to disk. All user connection threads that attempt to
delayed-insert into this table interact with the dedicated thread in
producer/consumer fashion: all records to-be inserted are pushed
into a queue of the dedicated thread, which fetches the records and
writes them.
In this design, client connection threads never open or lock
the delayed insert table.
This functionality was introduced in version 3.23 and does not take
into account existence of triggers, views, or pre-locking.
E.g. if INSERT DELAYED is called from a stored function, which,
in turn, is called from another stored function that uses the delayed
table, a deadlock can occur, because delayed locking by-passes
pre-locking. Besides:
* the delayed thread works directly with the subject table through
the storage engine API and does not invoke triggers
* even if it was patched to invoke triggers, if triggers,
in turn, used other tables, the delayed thread would
have to open and lock involved tables (use pre-locking).
* even if it was patched to use pre-locking, without deadlock
detection the delayed thread could easily lock out user
connection threads in case when the same table is used both
in a trigger and on the right side of the insert query:
the delayed thread would not release locks until all inserts
are complete, and user connection can not complete inserts
without having locks on the tables used on the right side of the
query.
Solution:
These considerations suggest two general alternatives for the
future of INSERT DELAYED:
* it is considered a full-fledged alternative to normal INSERT
* it is regarded as an optimisation that is only relevant
for simplistic engines.
Since we missed our chance to provide complete support of new
features when 5.0 was in development, the first alternative
currently renders infeasible.
However, even the second alternative, which is to detect
new features and convert DELAYED insert into a normal insert,
is not easy to implement.
The catch-22 is that we don't know if the subject table has triggers
or is a view before we open it, and we only open it in the
delayed thread. We don't know if the query involves pre-locking
until we have opened all tables, and we always first create
the delayed thread, and only then open the remaining tables.
This patch detects the problematic scenarios and converts
DELAYED INSERT to a normal INSERT using the following approach:
* if the statement is executed under pre-locking (e.g. from
within a stored function or trigger) or the right
side may require pre-locking, we detect the situation
before creating a delayed insert thread and convert the statement
to a conventional INSERT.
* if the subject table is a view or has triggers, we shutdown
the delayed thread and convert the statement to a conventional
INSERT.
Replacing binlog_row_based_if_mixed with variable binlog_stmt_flags
holding several flags and adding member functions to manipulate the
flags.
Added code to generate a warning when an attempt to log an unsafe
statement to the binary log was made. The warning is both pushed to the
SHOW WARNINGS table and written to the error log. The prevent flooding
the error log, the warning is just written to the error log once per
open session.
Bug #20662 "Infinite loop in CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT
with locked tables"
Bug #20903 "Crash when using CREATE TABLE .. SELECT and triggers"
Bug #24738 "CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is not isolated properly"
Bug #24508 "Inconsistent results of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT when
temporary table exists"
Deadlock occured when one tried to execute CREATE TABLE IF NOT
EXISTS ... SELECT statement under LOCK TABLES which held
read lock on target table.
Attempt to execute the same statement for already existing
target table with triggers caused server crashes.
Also concurrent execution of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement
and other statements involving target table suffered from
various races (some of which might've led to deadlocks).
Finally, attempt to execute CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in case
when a temporary table with same name was already present
led to the insertion of data into this temporary table and
creation of empty non-temporary table.
All above problems stemmed from the old implementation of CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT in which we created, opened and locked target
table without any special protection in a separate step and not
with the rest of tables used by this statement.
This underminded deadlock-avoidance approach used in server
and created window for races. It also excluded target table
from prelocking causing problems with trigger execution.
The patch solves these problems by implementing new approach to
handling of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT for base tables.
We try to open and lock table to be created at the same time as
the rest of tables used by this statement. If such table does not
exist at this moment we create and place in the table cache special
placeholder for it which prevents its creation or any other usage
by other threads.
We still use old approach for creation of temporary tables.
Note that we have separate fix for 5.0 since there we use slightly
different less intrusive approach.

Also note that we decided to postpone introduction of some tests
for concurrent behaviour of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT till 5.1.
The main reason for this is absence in 5.0 ability to set @@debug
variable at runtime, which can be circumvented only by using several
test files with individual .opt files. Since the latter is likely
to slowdown test-suite unnecessary we chose not to push this tests
into 5.0, but run them manually for this version and later push
their optimized version into 5.1
Bug occurs in INSERT IGNORE ... SELECT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
statements, when SELECT returns duplicated values and UPDATE clause
tries to assign NULL values to NOT NULL fields.
NOTE: By current design MySQL server treats INSERT IGNORE ... ON
DUPLICATE statements as INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE with update of
duplicated records, but MySQL manual lacks this information.
After this fix such behaviour becomes legalized.
The write_record() function was returning error values even within
INSERT IGNORE, because ignore_errors parameter of
the fill_record_n_invoke_before_triggers() function call was
always set to FALSE. FALSE is replaced by info->ignore.
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
skipped):
By moving statement end actions from Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() to
Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() they will always be executed, even if
Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() is skipped because the event originated
at the same server. This because Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() is always
executed (unless Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() failed with an error,
in which case the slave stops with an error anyway).
Adding test case.
Fixing logic to detect if inside a group. If a rotate event occured
when an initial prefix of events for a statement, but for which the
table did contain a key, last_event_start_time is set to zero, causing
rotate to end the group but without unlocking any tables. This left a
lock hanging around, which subsequently triggered an assertion when a
second attempt was made to lock the same sequence of tables.
In order to solve the above problem, a new flag was added to the relay
log info structure that is used to indicate that the replication thread
is currently executing a statement. Using this flag, the replication
thread is in a group if it is either in a statement or inside a trans-
action.
The patch also eliminates some gratuitous header file inclusions that
were not needed (and caused compile errors) and replaced them with
forward definitions.
In certain cases AFTER UPDATE/DELETE triggers on NDB tables that referenced
subject table didn't see the results of operation which caused invocation
of those triggers. In other words AFTER trigger invoked as result of update
(or deletion) of particular row saw version of this row before update (or
deletion).
The problem occured because NDB handler in those cases postponed actual
update/delete operations to be able to perform them later as one batch.
This fix solves the problem by disabling this optimization for particular
operation if subject table has AFTER trigger for this operation defined.
To achieve this we introduce two new flags for handler::extra() method:
HA_EXTRA_DELETE_CANNOT_BATCH and HA_EXTRA_UPDATE_CANNOT_BATCH.
These are called if there exists AFTER DELETE/UPDATE triggers during a
statement that potentially can generate calls to delete_row()/update_row().
This includes multi_delete/multi_update statements as well as insert statements
that do delete/update as part of an ON DUPLICATE statement.
NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO mode.
In the NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO mode the table->auto_increment_field_not_null
variable is used to indicate that a non-NULL value was specified by the user
for an auto_increment column. When an INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE updates the
auto_increment field this variable is set to true and stays unchanged for the
next insert operation. This makes the next inserted row sometimes wrongly have
0 as the value of the auto_increment field.
Now the fill_record() function resets the table->auto_increment_field_not_null
variable before filling the record.
The table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable is also reset by the
open_table() function for a case if we missed some auto_increment_field_not_null
handling bug.
Now the table->auto_increment_field_not_null is reset at the end of the
mysql_load() function.
Reset the table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable after each
write_row() call in the copy_data_between_tables() function.
thd->options' OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE bit was not restored at the end of SF() invocation, where
SF() modified non-ta table.
As the result of this artifact it was not possible to detect whether there were any side-effects when
top-level query ends.
If the top level query table was not modified and the bit is lost there would be no binlogging.
Fixed with preserving the bit inside of thd->no_trans_update struct. The struct agregates two bool flags
telling whether the current query and the current transaction modified any non-ta table.
The flags stmt, all are dropped at the end of the query and the transaction.
context was used as an argument of GROUP_CONCAT.
Ensured correct setting of the depended_from field in references
generated for set functions aggregated in outer selects.
A wrong value of this field resulted in wrong maps returned by
used_tables() for these references.
Made sure that a temporary table field is added for any set function
aggregated in outer context when creation of a temporary table is
needed to execute the inner subquery.
To correctly decide which predicates can be evaluated with a given table
the optimizer must know the exact set of tables that a predicate depends
on. If that mask is too wide (refer to non-existing tables) the optimizer
can erroneously skip a predicate.
One such case of wrong table usage mask were the aggregate functions.
The have a all-1 mask (meaning depend on all tables, including non-existent
ones).
Fixed by making a real used_tables mask for the aggregates. The mask is
constructed in the following way :
1. OR the table dependency masks of all the arguments of the aggregate.
2. If all the arguments of the function are from the local name resolution
context and it is evaluated in the same name resolution
context where it is referenced all the tables from that name resolution
context are OR-ed to the dependency mask. This is to denote that an
aggregate function depends on the number of rows it processes.
3. Handle correctly the case of an aggregate function optimization (such that
the aggregate function can be pre-calculated and made a constant).
Made sure that an aggregate function is never a constant (unless subject of a
specific optimization and pre-calculation).
One other flaw was revealed and fixed in the process : references were
not calling the recalculation method for used_tables of their targets.
Removed wrong fix for the bug#27006.
The bug was added by the fix for the bug#19978 and fixed by Monty on 2007/02/21.
trigger.test, trigger.result:
Corrected test case for the bug#27006.
UPDATE if the row wasn't actually changed.
This bug was caused by fix for bug#19978. It causes AFTER UPDATE triggers
not firing if a row wasn't actually changed by the update part of the
INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
Now triggers are always fired if a row is touched by the INSERT ... ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
INSERT uses query_id to verify what fields are
mentioned in the fields list of the INSERT command.
However the check for that is made after the
ON DUPLICATE KEY is processed. This causes all
the fields mentioned in ON DUPLICATE KEY to be
considered as mentioned in the fields list of
INSERT.
Moved the check up, right after processing the
fields list.
touched but not actually changed.
The LAST_INSERT_ID() is reset to 0 if no rows were inserted or changed.
This is the case when an INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE updates a row
with the same values as the row contains.
Now the LAST_INSERT_ID() values is reset to 0 only if there were no rows
successfully inserted or touched.
The new 'touched' field is added to the COPY_INFO structure. It holds the
number of rows that were touched no matter whether they were actually
changed or not.
