The MDEV-25004 test innodb_fts.versioning is omitted because ever since
commit 685d958e38 InnoDB would not allow
writes to a database where the redo log file ib_logfile0 is missing.
os_file_read(): Merged with os_file_read_no_error_handling().
Crashing on a partial page read is as unhelpful as crashing on a

check_version(): Simplify the mariadb-backup version check,
and require the server version to be MariaDB 10.8 or later,
because that is when the InnoDB redo log format was last changed.
This commit adds correct handling of binlogs for SST using rsync
or mariabackup. Before this fix, binlogs were handled incorrectly -
- only one (last) binary log file was transferred during SST, which
then led to various failures (for example, when trying to list all
events from the binary log). These bugs were long masked by flaws
in the primitive binlogs handling code in the SST scripts, which
causing binary logs files to be erased after transfer or not added
to the binlog index on the joiner node. Now the correct transfer
of all binary logs (not just the last of the binary log files) has
been implemented both for the rsync (at the script level) and for
the mariabackup (at the level of the main utility code).
This commit also adds a new sst_max_binlogs=<n> parameter, which
can be located in the [sst] section or in the [xtrabackup] section
(historically, supported for mariabackup only, not for rsync), or
in one of the server sections. This parameter specifies the number
of binary log files to be sent to the joiner node during SST. This
option is added for compatibility with old SST scripting behavior,
which can be emulated by setting the sst_max_binlogs=1 (although
in general this can cause problems for the reasons described above).
In addition, setting the sst_max_binlogs=0 can be used to suppress
the transmission of binary logs to the joiner nodes during SST
(although sometimes a single file with the current binary log can
still be transmitted to the joiner, even with sst_max_binlogs=0,
because this sometimes necessary in modes that involve the use of
GTIDs with Galera).
Also, this commit ensures correct handling of paths to various
innodb files and directories in the SST scripts, and fixes some
problems with this that existed in mariabackup utility (which
were associated with incorrect handling of the innodb_data_dir
parameter in some scenarios).
In addition, this commit contains the following enhancements:
1) Added tests for mtr, which check the correct work with binlogs
after SST (using rsync and mariabackup);
2) Added correct handling of slashes at the end of all paths that
the SST script receives as parameters;
3) Improved parsing code for --mysqld-args parameters. Now it
correctly processes the sequence "--" after the name of the
one-letter option;
4) Checking the secret signature during joiner authentication
is made independent of presence of bash (as a unix shell)
in the system and diff utility no longer needed to check
certificates compliance;
5) All directories that are necessary for the correct placement
of various logs are automatically created by SST scripts in
advance (before running mariabackup on the joiner node);
6) Removal of old binary logs on joiner is done using the binlog
index (if it exists) (not only by fixed pattern that based
on the current binlog name, as before);
7) Paths for placing binary logs are correctly processed if they
are set as relative paths (to the datadir);
8) SST scripts are made even more resistant to spaces in filenames
(now for binlogs);
9) In case of failure, SST scripts now always end with an exit
code other than zero;
10) SST script for rsync now correctly create a tar file with
the binlogs, even if the paths to them (in the binlog index
file) are specified as a mix of absolute and relative paths,
and even if they do not match with the datadir path specified
in the current configuration settings.
The InnoDB redo log used to be formatted in blocks of 512 bytes.
The log blocks were encrypted and the checksum was calculated while
holding log_sys.mutex, creating a serious scalability bottleneck.
We remove the fixed-size redo log block structure altogether and
essentially turn every mini-transaction into a log block of its own.
This allows encryption and checksum calculations to be performed
on local mtr_t::m_log buffers, before acquiring log_sys.mutex.
The mutex only protects a memcpy() of the data to the shared
log_sys.buf, as well as the padding of the log, in case the
to-be-written part of the log would not end in a block boundary of
the underlying storage. For now, the "padding" consists of writing
a single NUL byte, to allow recovery and mariadb-backup to detect
the end of the circular log faster.
Like the previous implementation, we will overwrite the last log block
over and over again, until it has been completely filled. It would be
possible to write only up to the last completed block (if no more
recent write was requested), or to write dummy FILE_CHECKPOINT records
to fill the incomplete block, by invoking the currently disabled
function log_pad(). This would require adjustments to some logic around
log checkpoints, page flushing, and shutdown.
An upgrade after a crash of any previous version is not supported.
Logically empty log files from a previous version will be upgraded.
An attempt to start up InnoDB without a valid ib_logfile0 will be
refused. Previously, the redo log used to be created automatically
if it was missing. Only with with innodb_force_recovery=6, it is
possible to start InnoDB in read-only mode even if the log file
does not exist. This allows the contents of a possibly corrupted
database to be dumped.
Because a prepared backup from an earlier version of mariadb-backup
will create a 0-sized log file, we will allow an upgrade from such
log files, provided that the FIL_PAGE_FILE_FLUSH_LSN in the system
tablespace looks valid.
The 512-byte log checkpoint blocks at 0x200 and 0x600 will be replaced
with 64-byte log checkpoint blocks at 0x1000 and 0x2000.
The start of log records will move from 0x800 to 0x3000. This allows us
to use 4096-byte aligned blocks for all I/O in a future revision.
We extend the MDEV-12353 redo log record format as follows.
(1) Empty mini-transactions or extra NUL bytes will not be allowed.
(2) The end-of-minitransaction marker (a NUL byte) will be replaced
with a 1-bit sequence number, which will be toggled each time when the
circular log file wraps back to the beginning.
(3) After the sequence bit, a CRC-32C checksum of all data
(excluding the sequence bit) will written.
(4) If the log is encrypted, 8 bytes will be written before
the checksum and included in it. This is part of the
initialization vector (IV) of encrypted log data.
(5) File names, page numbers, and checkpoint information will not be
encrypted. Only the payload bytes of page-level log will be encrypted.
The tablespace ID and page number will form part of the IV.
(6) For padding, arbitrary-length FILE_CHECKPOINT records may be written,
with all-zero payload, and with the normal end marker and checksum.
The minimum size is 7 bytes, or 7+8 with innodb_encrypt_log=ON.
In mariadb-backup and in Galera snapshot transfer (SST) scripts, we will
no longer remove ib_logfile0 or create an empty ib_logfile0. Server startup
will require a valid log file. When resizing the log, we will create
a logically empty ib_logfile101 at the current LSN and use an atomic rename
to replace ib_logfile0 with it. See the test innodb.log_file_size.
Because there is no mandatory padding in the log file, we are able
to create a dummy log file as of an arbitrary log sequence number.
See the test mariabackup.huge_lsn.
The parameter innodb_log_write_ahead_size and the
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counter log_padded will be removed.
The minimum value of innodb_log_buffer_size will be increased to 2MiB
(because log_sys.buf will replace recv_sys.buf) and the increment
adjusted to 4096 bytes (the maximum log block size).
The following INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counters will be removed:
os_log_fsyncs
os_log_pending_fsyncs
log_pending_log_flushes
log_pending_checkpoint_writes
The following status variables will be removed:
Innodb_os_log_fsyncs (this is included in Innodb_data_fsyncs)
Innodb_os_log_pending_fsyncs (this was limited to at most 1 by design)
log_sys.get_block_size(): Return the physical block size of the log file.
This is only implemented on Linux and Microsoft Windows for now, and for
the power-of-2 block sizes between 64 and 4096 bytes (the minimum and
maximum size of a checkpoint block). If the block size is anything else,
the traditional 512-byte size will be used via normal file system
buffering.
If the file system buffers can be bypassed, a message like the following
will be issued:
InnoDB: File system buffers for log disabled (block size=512 bytes)
InnoDB: File system buffers for log disabled (block size=4096 bytes)
This has been tested on Linux and Microsoft Windows with both sizes.
On Linux, only enable O_DIRECT on the log for innodb_flush_method=O_DSYNC.
Tests in 3 different environments where the log is stored in a device
with a physical block size of 512 bytes are yielding better throughput
without O_DIRECT. This could be due to the fact that in the event the
last log block is being overwritten (if multiple transactions would
become durable at the same time, and each of will write a small
number of bytes to the last log block), it should be faster to re-copy
data from log_sys.buf or log_sys.flush_buf to the kernel buffer,
to be finally written at fdatasync() time.
The parameter innodb_flush_method=O_DSYNC will imply O_DIRECT for
data files. This option will enable O_DIRECT on the log file on Linux.
It may be unsafe to use when the storage device does not support
FUA (Force Unit Access) mode.
When the server is compiled WITH_PMEM=ON, we will use memory-mapped
I/O for the log file if the log resides on a "mount -o dax" device.
We will identify PMEM in a start-up message:
InnoDB: log sequence number 0 (memory-mapped); transaction id 3
On Linux, we will also invoke mmap() on any ib_logfile0 that resides
in /dev/shm, effectively treating the log file as persistent memory.
This should speed up "./mtr --mem" and increase the test coverage of
PMEM on non-PMEM hardware. It also allows users to estimate how much
the performance would be improved by installing persistent memory.
On other tmpfs file systems such as /run, we will not use mmap().
mariadb-backup: Eliminated several variables. We will refer
directly to recv_sys and log_sys.
backup_wait_for_lsn(): Detect non-progress of
xtrabackup_copy_logfile(). In this new log format with
arbitrary-sized blocks, we can only detect log file overrun
indirectly, by observing that the scanned log sequence number
is not advancing.
xtrabackup_copy_logfile(): On PMEM, do not modify the sequence bit,
because we are not allowed to modify the server's log file, and our
memory mapping is read-only.
trx_flush_log_if_needed_low(): Do not use the callback on pmem.
Using neither flush_lock nor write_lock around PMEM writes seems
to yield the best performance. The pmem_persist() calls may
still be somewhat slower than the pwrite() and fdatasync() based
interface (PMEM mounted without -o dax).
recv_sys_t::buf: Remove. We will use log_sys.buf for parsing.
recv_sys_t::MTR_SIZE_MAX: Replaces RECV_SCAN_SIZE.
recv_sys_t::file_checkpoint: Renamed from mlog_checkpoint_lsn.
recv_sys_t, log_sys_t: Removed many data members.
recv_sys.lsn: Renamed from recv_sys.recovered_lsn.
recv_sys.offset: Renamed from recv_sys.recovered_offset.
log_sys.buf_size: Replaces srv_log_buffer_size.
recv_buf: A smart pointer that wraps log_sys.buf[recv_sys.offset]
when the buffer is being allocated from the memory heap.
recv_ring: A smart pointer that wraps a circular log_sys.buf[] that is
backed by ib_logfile0. The pointer will wrap from recv_sys.len
(log_sys.file_size) to log_sys.START_OFFSET. For the record that
wraps around, we may copy file name or record payload data to
the auxiliary buffer decrypt_buf in order to have a contiguous
block of memory. The maximum size of a record is less than
innodb_page_size bytes.
recv_sys_t::parse(): Take the smart pointer as a template parameter.
Do not temporarily add a trailing NUL byte to FILE_ records, because
we are not supposed to modify the memory-mapped log file. (It is
attached in read-write mode already during recovery.)
recv_sys_t::parse_mtr(): Wrapper for recv_sys_t::parse().
recv_sys_t::parse_pmem(): Like parse_mtr(), but if PREMATURE_EOF would be
returned on PMEM, use recv_ring to wrap around the buffer to the start.
mtr_t::finish_write(), log_close(): Do not enforce log_sys.max_buf_free
on PMEM, because it has no meaning on the mmap-based log.
log_sys.write_to_buf: Count writes to log_sys.buf. Replaces
srv_stats.log_write_requests and export_vars.innodb_log_write_requests.
Protected by log_sys.mutex. Updated consistently in log_close().
Previously, mtr_t::commit() conditionally updated the count,
which was inconsistent.
log_sys.write_to_log: Count swaps of log_sys.buf and log_sys.flush_buf,
for writing to log_sys.log (the ib_logfile0). Replaces
srv_stats.log_writes and export_vars.innodb_log_writes.
Protected by log_sys.mutex.
log_sys.waits: Count waits in append_prepare(). Replaces
srv_stats.log_waits and export_vars.innodb_log_waits.
recv_recover_page(): Do not unnecessarily acquire
log_sys.flush_order_mutex. We are inserting the blocks in arbitary
order anyway, to be adjusted in recv_sys.apply(true).
We will change the definition of flush_lock and write_lock to
avoid potential false sharing. Depending on sizeof(log_sys) and
CPU_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE, the flush_lock and write_lock could
share a cache line with each other or with the last data members
of log_sys.

The functions fil_file_readdir_next_file(), os_file_opendir(),
os_file_closedir() became dead code in the server in MariaDB 10.4.0
with commit 09af00cbde (the removal of
the crash recovery logic for the TRUNCATE TABLE implementation that
was replaced in MDEV-13564).
os_file_opendir(), os_file_closedir(): Define as macros.
A consistency check for fil_space_t::name is causing recovery failures
in MDEV-25180 (Atomic ALTER TABLE). So, we'd better remove that field
altogether.
fil_space_t::name was more or less a copy of dict_table_t::name
(except for some special cases), and it was not being used for
anything useful.
There used to be a name_hash, but it had been removed already in
commit a75dbfd718 (MDEV-12266).
We will also remove os_normalize_path(), OS_PATH_SEPARATOR,
OS_PATH_SEPATOR_ALT. On Microsoft Windows, we will treat \ and /
roughly in the same way. The intention is that for per-table
tablespaces, the filenames will always follow the pattern
prefix/databasename/tablename.ibd. (Any \ in the prefix must not
be converted.)
ut_basename_noext(): Remove (unused function).
read_link_file(): Replaces RemoteDatafile::read_link_file().
We will ensure that the last two path component separators are
forward slashes (converting up to 2 trailing backslashes on
Microsoft Windows), so that everywhere else we can
assume that data file names end in "/databasename/tablename.ibd".
Note: On Microsoft Windows, path names that start with \\?\ must
not contain / as path component separators. Previously, such paths
did work in the DATA DIRECTORY argument of InnoDB tables.
