active_mi has been reset (shutdown) at the time of quering with
SHOW SLAVE STATUS so that
at handling of SHOW an attempt to read its members segfaults.
Fixed with checking the value of active_mi before to call show_master_info()
Merely send_ok() is invoked when active_mi does not exist.
A test can not be easiely written.
Notice, there are more analogical cases in the code which require a similar
treatment (to be reported as a bug separately).
Invaldating a subset of a sufficiently large query cache can take a long time.
During this time the server is efficiently frozen and no other operation can
be executed. This patch addresses this problem by setting a time limit on
how long time a dictionary access request can take before giving up on the
attempt. This patch does not work for query cache invalidations issued by
DROP, ALTER or RENAME TABLE operations.
The problem is that a SELECT on one thread is blocked by INSERT ... ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE on another thread even when low_priority_updates is
activated.
The solution is to possibly downgrade the lock type to the setting of
low_priority_updates if the INSERT cannot be concurrent.
Problem:
In cases when a client-side macro appears inside a server-side comment, the add_line() function in mysql.cc discarded all characters until the next delimiter to remove macro arguments from the query string. This resulted in broken queries being sent to the server when the next delimiter character appeared past the comment's boundaries, because the comment closing sequence ('*/') was discarded.
Fix:
If a client-side macro appears inside a server-side comment, discard all characters in the comment after the macro (that is, until the end of the comment rather than the next delimiter).
This is a minimal fix to allow only simple cases used by the mysqlbinlog utility. Limitations that are worth documenting:
- Nested server-side and/or client-side comments are not supported by mysql.cc
- Using client-side macros in multi-line server-side comments is not supported
- All characters after a client-side macro in a server-side comment will be omitted from the query string (and thus, will not be sent to server).
comments)
Before this fix, the server would accept queries that contained comments,
even when the comments were not properly closed with a '*' '/' marker.
For example,
select 1 /* + 2 <EOF>
would be accepted as
select 1 /* + 2 */ <EOF>
and executed as
select 1
With this fix, the server now rejects queries with unclosed comments
as syntax errors.
Both regular comments ('/' '*') and special comments ('/' '*' '!') must be
closed with '*' '/' to be parsed correctly.
explicit --sleep is removed in favor of wait_for_slave_io_to_stop.inc.
The status reporting uses `SHOW SLAVE STATUS' *not* possibly buggy "SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Slave_running'".
This is a performance bug, affecting in particular the bison generated code
for the parser.
Prior to this fix, the grammar used a long chain of reduces to parse an
expression, like:
bit_expr -> bit_term
bit_term -> bit_factor
bit_factor -> value_expr
value_expr -> term
term -> factor
etc
This chain of reduces cause the internal state automaton in the generated
parser to execute more state transitions and more reduces, so that the
generated MySQLParse() function would spend a lot of time looping to execute
all the grammar reductions.
With this patch, the grammar has been reorganized so that rules are more
"flat", limiting the depth of reduces needed to parse <expr>.
Tests have been written to enforce that relative priorities and properties
of operators have not changed while changing the grammar.
See the bug report for performance data.
- Merge sslaccept and sslconnect.
- Atomically "reset" vio to VIO_TYPE_SSL when the SSL connection has
succeeded, this avoids having to revert anything and thus protects
against "close_active_vio" in the middle.
- Add some variance to the testcase
If, after the tables are locked, one of the conditions to read from a
HANDLER table is not met, the handler code wrongly jumps to a error path
that won't unlock the tables.
The user-visible effect is that after a error in a handler read command,
all subsequent handler operations on the same table will hang.
The fix is simply to correct the code to jump to the (same) error path that
unlocks the tables.
The problem from a user's perspective: user creates table A, and then tries
to CREATE TABLE a SELECT from A - and this causes a deadlock error, a hang,
or fails with a debug assert, but only if the storage engine is InnoDB.
The origin of the problem: InnoDB uses case-insensitive collation
(system_charset_info) when looking up the internal table share, thus returning
the same share for 'a' and 'A'.
Cause of the user-visible behavior: since the same share is returned to SQL
locking subsystem, it assumes that the same table is first locked (within the
same session) for WRITE, and then for READ, and returns a deadlock error.
However, the code is wrong in not properly cleaning up upon an error, leaving
external locks in place, which leads to assertion failures and hangs.
Fix that has been implemented: the SQL layer should properly propagate the
deadlock error, cleaning up and freeing all resources.
Further work towards a more complete solution: InnoDB should not use case
insensitive collation for table share hash if table names on disk honor the case.
