The problem was that issuing XA END when the XA transaction was
already ended, caused an assertion. This assertion tests that
the server does not try to send OK to the client if there has
already been an error reported. The bug was only noticeable on
debug versions of the server.
The reason for the problem was that the trans_xa_end() function
reported success if the transaction was at XA_IDLE state at the
end regardless of any errors occured during processing of
trans_xa_end(). So if the transaction state was XA_IDLE already,
reported errors would be ignored.
This patch fixes the problem by having trans_xa_end() take into
consideration any reported errors. The patch also fixes a similar
bug with XA PREPARE.
Test case added to xa.test.

SET autocommit=1 while XA transaction is active may
cause various side effects, including memory corruption
and server crash.
The problem is that SET autocommit=1 and further queries
attempt to commit local transaction, whereas XA transaction
is still active.
As local and XA transactions are mutually exclusive, this
patch forbids enabling autocommit mode while XA transaction
is active.

Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
Currently the MySQL server does not keep metadata locks on
schema objects for the duration of a transaction, thus failing
to guarantee the integrity of the schema objects being used
during the transaction and to protect then from concurrent
DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
active transactions using the object being modified.
The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
transactions.
- Incompatible change:
If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
and trying to acquire them all in one go.
But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.
Let's consider an example:
A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.
At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
-- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.
- Incompatible change:
FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.
XA START may cause assertion failure/server crash when it is called
after unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (both
in regular transaction and after XA transaction).
The problem was that rm_error variable wasn't set/reset properly.
The problem is that the one phase commit function failed to
properly end a empty transaction. The solution is to ensure
that the transaction cleanup procedure is invoked even for
empty transactions.
The problem is that when a optimization of read-only transactions
(bypass 2-phase commit) was implemented, it removed the code that
reseted the XID once a transaction wasn't active anymore:
sql/sql_parse.cc:
- bzero(&thd->transaction.stmt, sizeof(thd->transaction.stmt));
- if (!thd->active_transaction())
- thd->transaction.xid_state.xid.null();
+ thd->transaction.stmt.reset();
This mostly worked fine as the transaction commit and rollback
functions (in handler.cc) reset the XID once the transaction is
ended. But those functions wouldn't reset the XID in case of
a empty transaction, leading to a assertion when a new starting
a new XA transaction.
The solution is to ensure that the XID state is reset when empty
transactions are ended (by either commit or rollback). This is
achieved by reorganizing the code so that the transaction cleanup
routine is invoked whenever a transaction is ended.
+ Fix for Bug#43114 wait_until_count_sessions too restrictive, random PB failures
+ Removal of a lot of other weaknesses found
+ modifications according to review
The problem was that the server did not robustly handle a
unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (RM)
due to a resource deadlock within the transaction branch.
By not acknowledging the roll back, the server (TM) would
eventually corrupt the XA transaction state and crash.
The solution is to mark the transaction as rollback-only
if the RM indicates that it rolled back its branch of the
transaction.
