causes future shutdown hang
InnoDB would hang on shutdown if any XA transactions exist in the
system in the PREPARED state. This has been masked by the fact that
MySQL would roll back any PREPARED transaction on shutdown, in the
spirit of Bug #12161 Xa recovery and client disconnection.
[mysql-test-run] do_shutdown_server: Interpret --shutdown_server 0 as
a request to kill the server immediately without initiating a
shutdown procedure.
xid_cache_insert(): Initialize XID_STATE::rm_error in order to avoid a
bogus error message on XA ROLLBACK of a recovered PREPARED transaction.
innobase_commit_by_xid(), innobase_rollback_by_xid(): Free the InnoDB
transaction object after rolling back a PREPARED transaction.
trx_get_trx_by_xid(): Only consider transactions whose
trx->is_prepared flag is set. The MySQL layer seems to prevent
attempts to roll back connected transactions that are in the PREPARED
state from another connection, but it is better to play it safe. The
is_prepared flag was introduced in the InnoDB Plugin.
trx_n_prepared: A new counter, counting the number of InnoDB
transactions in the PREPARED state.
logs_empty_and_mark_files_at_shutdown(): On shutdown, allow
trx_n_prepared transactions to exist in the system.
trx_undo_free_prepared(), trx_free_prepared(): New functions, to free
the memory objects of PREPARED transactions on shutdown. This is not
needed in the built-in InnoDB, because it would collect all allocated
memory on shutdown. The InnoDB Plugin needs this because of
innodb_use_sys_malloc.
trx_sys_close(): Invoke trx_free_prepared() on all remaining
transactions.
The problem was that the warnings was never written out
when running with --ps-protocol. This was because the
warnings only appeared during the prepare phase, not
the execute phase.
Solved by not clearing the warnings from the prepare phase
if there was no other warnings.
If there are warnings from the execute phase, it is very
likely to be the same as from the prepare phase. My tests
show that if not clearing the warnings from the prepare
phase when there are warnings from the execute phase, there
will be duplicated warnings in the result.
Major replication test framework cleanup. This does the following:
- Ensure that all tests clean up the replication state when they
finish, by making check-testcase check the output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
This implies:
- Slave must not be running after test finished. This is good
because it removes the risk for sporadic errors in subsequent
tests when a test forgets to sync correctly.
- Slave SQL and IO errors must be cleared when test ends. This is
good because we will notice if a test gets an unexpected error in
the slave threads near the end.
- We no longer have to clean up before a test starts.
- Ensure that all tests that wait for an error in one of the slave
threads waits for a specific error. It is no longer possible to
source wait_for_slave_[sql|io]_to_stop.inc when there is an error
in one of the slave threads. This is good because:
- If a test expects an error but there is a bug that causes
another error to happen, or if it stops the slave thread without
an error, then we will notice.
- When developing tests, wait_for_*_to_[start|stop].inc will fail
immediately if there is an error in the relevant slave thread.
Before this patch, we had to wait for the timeout.
- Remove duplicated and repeated code for setting up unusual replication
topologies. Now, there is a single file that is capable of setting
up arbitrary topologies (include/rpl_init.inc, but
include/master-slave.inc is still available for the most common
topology). Tests can now end with include/rpl_end.inc, which will clean
up correctly no matter what topology is used. The topology can be
changed with include/rpl_change_topology.inc.
- Improved debug information when tests fail. This includes:
- debug info is printed on all servers configured by include/rpl_init.inc
- User can set $rpl_debug=1, which makes auxiliary replication files
print relevant debug info.
- Improved documentation for all auxiliary replication files. Now they
describe purpose, usage, parameters, and side effects.
- Many small code cleanups:
- Made have_innodb.inc output a sensible error message.
- Moved contents of rpl000017-slave.sh into rpl000017.test
- Added mysqltest variables that expose the current state of
disable_warnings/enable_warnings and friends.
- Too many to list here: see per-file comments for details.
mysqltest checks if the stmt is one that should be run in ps mode,
but regexp doesn't match if preceeded by /* */ comment.
Fix: match function will jump over /*..*/ if found at start
Backported use of setenv() from 5.5
This will remove the leak on systems that have setenv()
I have not fixed the string.c leak, it's a local variable
that the cleanup function cannot access.
The problem is that the logic which checks if a pointer is
valid relies on a poor heuristic based on the start and end
addresses of the data segment and heap.
Apart from miscalculating the heap bounds, this approach also
suffers from the fact that memory can come from places other
than the heap. See Bug#58528 for a more detailed explanation.
On Linux, the solution is to access the process's memory
through /proc/self/task/<tid>/mem, which allows for retrieving
the contents of pages within the virtual address space of
the calling process. If a address range is not mapped, a
input/output error is returned.
Fix assorted warnings that are generated in optimized builds.
Most of it is silencing variables that are set but unused.
This patch also introduces the MY_ASSERT_UNREACHABLE macro
which helps the compiler to deduce that a certain piece of
code is unreachable.
Trying to run perl fails, just like it does when perl is started but fails
Trap the case that perl was not found/could not be started, and skip test
Also force a restart of servers since test may already have done something
mtr now also appends path of current perl to PATH to aid mysqltest
Added --enable-connect-log, somewhet similar to --enable-query-log
If query log is disabled, disable connect log too
Also some related cleanup in mysqltest.test: removing duplicate test loop
Bug #55546 mysqltest fails to create a new thread on HPUX
Missing call to pthread_join(), in embedded mode
This independently solves both problems, see 55426 for details.
Addendum: cannot test against a pthread_t, adds boolean flag instead
Added code resulted in strange linking problem for embedded on Windows
Avoided by not doing this for embedded mode
It's irrelevant for embedded server anyway, --protocol will be ignored
if() treated any non-numeric string as false
Fixed to treat those as true instead
Added some test cases
Fixed missing $ in variable name in include/mix2.inc
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
strict aliasing violations.
Essentially, the problem is that large parts of the server were
developed in simpler times (last decades, pre C99 standard) when
strict aliasing and compilers supporting such optimizations were
rare to non-existent. Thus, when compiling the server with a modern
compiler that uses strict aliasing rules to perform optimizations,
there are several places in the code that might trigger undefined
behavior.
As evinced by some recent bugs, GCC does a somewhat good of job
misoptimizing such code, but on the other hand also gives warnings
about suspicious code. One problem is that the warnings aren't
always accurate, yet we can't afford to just shut them off as we
might miss real cases. False-positive cases are aggravated mostly
by casts that are likely to trigger undefined behavior.
The solution is to start a cleanup process focused on fixing and
reducing the amount of strict-aliasing related warnings produced
by GCC and others compilers. A good deal of noise reduction can
be achieved by just removing useless casts that are product of
historical cruft and are likely to trigger undefined behavior if
dereferenced.
