When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.
When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9
With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.
The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.
Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to
tested manually.
strmov() is not guaranteed to work correctly on overlapping
source and destination buffers. On some OSes it may work,
but Fedora 12 has a stpcpy() that's not working correctly
on overlapping buffers.
Fixed to use the overlap-safe version of strmov instead.
Re-vitalized the overlap-safe version of strmov.
As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().
Bug#31621: Windows server hanging during shutdown using named pipes
and idle connection
Problem: when idle pipe connection is forcefully closed with KILL
statement or when the server goes down, thread that is closing connection
would hang infinitely in CloseHandle(). The reason for the hang is that
named pipe operations are performed synchronously. In this mode all IOs
on pipe are serialized, that is CloseHandle() will not abort ReadFile()
in another thread, but wait for ReadFile() to complete.
The fix implements asynchrnous mode for named pipes, where operation of file
are not synchronized. Read/Write operation would fire an async IO and wait for
either IO completion or timeout.
Note, that with this patch timeouts are properly handled for named pipes.
Post-review: Win32 timeout code has been fixed for named pipes and shared
memory. We do not store pointer to NET in vio structure, only the read and
write timeouts.
BUG#47073 - valgrind errs, corruption,failed repair of partition,
low myisam_sort_buffer_size
Fixed race conditions discovered with the provided test case and
stabilized test case.
Backport from 6.0 to 5.1.
Only those sync points are included, which are used in debug_sync.test.
The Debug Sync Facility allows to place synchronization points
in the code:
open_tables(...)
DEBUG_SYNC(thd, "after_open_tables");
lock_tables(...)
When activated, a sync point can
- Send a signal and/or
- Wait for a signal
Nomenclature:
- signal: A value of a global variable that persists
until overwritten by a new signal. The global
variable can also be seen as a "signal post"
or "flag mast". Then the signal is what is
attached to the "signal post" or "flag mast".
- send a signal: Assign the value (the signal) to the global
variable ("set a flag") and broadcast a
global condition to wake those waiting for
a signal.
- wait for a signal: Loop over waiting for the global condition until
the global value matches the wait-for signal.
Please find more information in the top comment in debug_sync.cc
or in the worklog entry.
Restore a stub of the removed mysql_odbc_escape_string function
to fix a ABI breakage. The function was intended to be private
and used only by Connector/ODBC, but, unfortunately, it was exported
as part of the ABI. Nonetheless, only a stub is restored as the
original function is inherently broken and shouldn't be used.
This restoration only applies to MySQL 5.0. This will be addressed
differently in later versions -- reworked library versioning.
can crash under load
Backport from 5.1.
Does also include key cache fixes from:
Bug 44068 (RESTORE can disable the MyISAM Key Cache)
Bug 40944 (Backup: crash after myisampack)
CREATE TABLE...LIKE...
The mysql server option 'sync_frm' is ignored when table is created with
syntax CREATE TABLE .. LIKE..
Fixed by adding the MY_SYNC flag and calling my_sync() from my_copy() when
the flag is set.
In mysql_create_table(), when the 'sync_frm' is set, MY_SYNC flag is passed
to my_copy().
Note: TestCase is not attached and can be tested manually using debugger.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
- Define and pass compile time path variables as pre-processor definitions to
mimic the makefile build.
- Set new CMake version and policy requirements explicitly.
- Changed DATADIR to MYSQL_DATADIR to avoid conflicting definition in
Platform SDK header ObjIdl.h which also defines DATADIR.
not logged
Errors encountered during initialization of the SSL subsystem
are printed to stderr, rather than to the error log.
This patch adds a parameter to several SSL init functions to
report the error (if any) out to the caller. The function
init_ssl() in mysqld.cc is moved after the initialization of
the log subsystem, so that any error messages can be logged to
the error log. Printing of messages to stderr has been
retained to get diagnostic output in a client context.
it returns misleading 'table is full'
Innodb returns a misleading error message "table is full"
when the number of active concurrent transactions is greater
than 1024.
Fixed by adding errorcode "ER_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS" to the
error codes. Innodb should return HA_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS
to mysql which is then mapped to ER_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS
Note: testcase is not written as this was reproducible only by
changing innodb code.
A REPLACE in the MERGE engine is actually a REPLACE
into one (FIRST or LAST) of the underlying MyISAM
tables. So in effect the server works on the meta
data of the MERGE table, while the real insert happens
in the MyISAM table.
The MERGE table has no index, while MyISAM has a
unique index. When a REPLACE into a MERGE table (
and the REPLACE conflicts with a duplicate in a
child table) is done, we try to access the duplicate
key information for the MERGE table. This information
actually does not exist, hence this results in a crash.
The problem can be resolved by modifying the MERGE
engine to provide us the duplicate key information
directly, instead of just returning the MyISAM index
number as the error key. Then the SQL layer (or "the
server") does not try to access the key_info of the
MERGE table, which does not exist.
The current patch modifies the MERGE engine to provide
the position for a record where a unique key violation
occurs.
Fixed the following problems:
1. cmake 2.6 warning because of a changed default on
how the dependencies to libraries with a specified
path are resolved.
Fixed by requiring cmake 2.6.
2. Removed an obsolete pre-NT4 hack including defining
Windows system defines to alter the behavior of windows.h.
3. Disabled warning C4065 on compiling sql_yacc.cc because
of a know incompatibility in some of the newer bison binaries.
and base tables
myrg_attach_children() could reuse a buffer that was allocated
previously based on a definition of a child table. The problem
was that the child's definition might have been changed, so
reusing the buffer could lead to crashes or valgrind errors
under some circumstances.
Fixed by changing myrg_attach_children() so that the
rec_per_key_part buffer is reused only when the child table
have not changed, and reallocated otherwise (the old buffer is
deallocated if necessary).
unnecessarily
The problem is that libmysqlclient.so is built with THREAD
undefined, while a client compiling against the same header
files will see THREAD as defined and definitions in
my_pthread.h will be included, possibly resulting in undefined
symbols that cannot be resolved with libmysqlclient.so.
The suggested solution is to require that clients wanting to
link with libmysqlclient.so should be built with
MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS defined. This requires a documentation
change, and more details for this will be supplied if this
patch is approved.
The MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS define was renamed from
UNDEF_THREADS_HACK, to get a more suitable (less suspicious)
name for the define. (The UNDEF_THREADS_HACK is retained for
backwards compatibility, though.)
This patch is also in anticipation of WL#4958, which will
remove this problem altogether by dropping the building of
libmysqlclient.
Failure to allocate memory for the hash->array element,
caused hash_init to return without initializing the other
members of the hash. Thus although the dynamic array
buffer may be allocated at a later point in the code, the
incompletely initialized hash caused fatal failures.
This patch moves the initialization of the other members
of the hash above the array allocation, so that the usage
of this hash will not result in fatal failures.
Bug#34309: '_PC' macro redefinition
For reasons that are now a mystery, we had defined a CPP symbol to
help ancient compilers work better (in some way that's lost to history).
This interferes with at least one modern compiler.
Now, don't define the _PC symbol. Those other underscore-leading
symbols are suspect also, but at least the names aren't inscrutable.
Let's leave them for now.
The problem was that new lock types were being added without a
corresponding description. Since the lock types (enum values)
are used as indices to the description array, the descriptions
could be shifted depending on the lock type. The solution is to
ensure that every lock type has a correspondent description.
produce incorrect results for ROUND()
Added a workaround and a configure check to test whether
isinf() is affected by the GCC bug #39228.
Since no code in MySQL server is currently affected by that
bug, the patch is actually a safeguard for possible future
code modifications. No test cases or changelog entries are
needed.
- Header <sys/ttydefaults.h> missing or not usable on QNX and OpenServer 6
include/my_global.h
- Moved down definition of function rint(), as for some platforms (in
this case Netware) 'longlong' is not defined until later in
"my_global.h"
Took the Xfree implementation (based on the same rewrite as the NDB one)
and added it instead of the current implementation.
Added a macro to make the calls to MD5 more streamlined.
When disk is full, server may waiting for free space while
writing binlog, relay-log or MyISAM tables. The server will
continue after user have freed some space. But the error
message printed was not quite clear about the how often the
error message is printed, and there will be a delay before
the server continue and user freeing space. And caused users
thinking that the server was hanging forever.
This patch fixed the problem by making the error messages
printed more clear. The error message is split into two part,
the first part will only be printed once, and the second part
will be printed very 10 times.
Message first part:
Disk is full writing '<filename>' (Errcode: <errorno>). Waiting
for someone to free space... (Expect up to 60 secs delay for
server to continue after freeing disk space)
Message second part:
Retry in 60 secs, Message reprinted in 600 secs
in load_defaults()
load_defaults(), my_search_option_files() and
my_print_default_files() utilized a global variable
containing a pointer to thread local memory. This could lead
to race conditions when those functions were called with high
concurrency.
Fixed by changing the interface of the said functions to avoid
the necessity for using a global variable.
Since we cannot change load_defaults() prototype for API
compatibility reasons, it was renamed my_load_defaults().
Now load_defaults() is a thread-unsafe wrapper around
a thread-safe version, my_load_defaults().
for bug #15936.
On some platforms fenv.h may #undef the min/max macros
defined in my_global.h.
Fixed by moving the #include directive for fenv.h from
mysqld.cc to my_global.h before definitions for min/max.
Add all HA error numbers and descriptions to perror.
Add reminder to header.
This is already fixed in smarter ways in future codebases, and this
codebase is unlikely to change, since new development is forbidden
here.
Both of our own implementations of rint(3) were inconsistent with the
most common behavior of rint() on those platforms that have it: round
to nearest, break ties by rounding to nearest even.
Fixed by leaving just one implementation of rint() in our source tree,
and changing its behavior to match the most common native
implementations on other platforms.

code backported from 6.0
per-file messages:
include/my_global.h
Remove SC_MAXWIDTH. This is unused and irrelevant nowadays.
include/my_sys.h
Remove errbuf declaration and unused definitions.
mysys/my_error.c
Remove errbuf definition and move and adjust ERRMSGSIZE.
mysys/my_init.c
Declare buffer on the stack and use my_snprintf.
mysys/safemalloc.c
Use size explicitly. It's more than enough for the message at hand.
sql/sql_error.cc
Use size explicitly. It's more than enough for the message at hand.
sql/sql_parse.cc
Declare buffer on the stack. Use my_snprintf as it will result in
less stack space being used than by a system provided sprintf --
this allows us to put the buffer on the stack without causing much
trouble. Also, the use of errbuff here was not thread-safe as the
function can be entered concurrently from multiple threads.
sql/sql_table.cc
Use MYSQL_ERRMSG_SIZE. Extra space is not needed as my_snprintf will
nul terminate strings.
storage/myisam/ha_myisam.cc
Use MYSQL_ERRMSG_SIZE.
sql/share/errmsg.txt
Error message truncation in test "innodb" in embedded mode
filename in the error message can safely take up to 210 symbols.
upgrading lock, even with low_priority_updates
The problem is that there is no mechanism to control whether a
delayed insert takes a high or low priority lock on a table.
The solution is to modify the delayed insert thread ("handler")
to take into account the global value of low_priority_updates
when taking table locks. The value of low_priority_updates is
retrieved when the insert delayed thread is created and will
remain the same for the duration of the thread.
For reasons that are now a mystery, we had defined a CPP symbol to
help ancient compilers work better (in some way that's lost to history).
This interferes with at least one modern compiler.
Now, don't define the _PC symbol. Those other underscore-leading
symbols are suspect also, but at least the names aren't inscrutable.
Let's leave them for now.
myisam_repair_threads > 1 causes crash
Problem: parallel repair (myisam_repair_threads > 1) of a myisam
table with two or more fulltext keys that use the same parser may
lead to a server crash. ALTER TABLE ENABLE KEYS is affected as well.
Fix: properly initialize fulltext structures for parallel repair.
Note: 1. there's no deterministic test case.
2. now we call parser->init() for each fulltext key
(not for each fulltext parser used).

Add #define HAVE_CHARSET_name in config-win.h for all character sets that MySQL
supports. Add comments to config/ac-macros/character_sets.m4 and config-win.h
so hopefully they will be updated in sync.
The MONTHNAME/DAYNAME functions
returns binary string, so the LOWER/UPPER functions
are not effective on the result of MONTHNAME/DAYNAME call.
Character set of the MONTHNAME/DAYNAME function
result has been changed to connection character set.
