If an EVENT is created without the DEFINER clause set explicitly or with it set
to CURRENT_USER, the master and slaves become inconsistent. This issue stems from
the fact that in both cases, the DEFINER is set to the CURRENT_USER of the current
thread. On the master, the CURRENT_USER is the mysqld's user, while on the slave,
the CURRENT_USER is empty for the SQL Thread which is responsible for executing
the statement.
To fix the problem, we do what follows. If the definer is not set explicitly,
a DEFINER clause is added when writing the query into binlog; if 'CURRENT_USER' is
used as the DEFINER, it is replaced with the value of the current user before
writing to binlog.
binlog
Mixing transactional (T) and non-transactional (N) tables on behalf of a
transaction may lead to inconsistencies among masters and slaves in STATEMENT
mode. The problem stems from the fact that although modifications done to
non-transactional tables on behalf of a transaction become immediately visible
to other connections they do not immediately get to the binary log and therefore
consistency is broken. Although there may be issues in mixing T and M tables in
STATEMENT mode, there are safe combinations that clients find useful.
In this bug, we fix the following issue. Mixing N and T tables in multi-level
(e.g. a statement that fires a trigger) or multi-table table statements (e.g.
update t1, t2...) were not handled correctly. In such cases, it was not possible
to distinguish when a T table was updated if the sequence of changes was N and T.
In a nutshell, just the flag "modified_non_trans_table" was not enough to reflect
that both a N and T tables were changed. To circumvent this issue, we check if an
engine is registered in the handler's list and changed something which means that
a T table was modified.
Check WL 2687 for a full-fledged patch that will make the use of either the MIXED or
ROW modes completely safe.
partition is corrupt
The main problem was that ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR
PARTITION took another code path (over mysql_alter_table instead of
mysql_admin_table) which differs in two ways:
1) alter table opens the tables in a different way than admin tables do
resulting in returning with error before it tried the command
2) alter table does not start to send any diagnostic rows to the client
which the lower admin functions continue to use -> resulting in
assertion crash
The fix:
Remapped ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR PARTITION to use
the same code path as ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR TABLE t.
Adding check in mysql_admin_table to setup the partition list for
which partitions that should be used.
Partitioned tables will still not work with
REPAIR TABLE/PARTITION USE_FRM, since that requires moving partitions
to tables, REPAIR TABLE t USE_FRM, and check that the data still
fulfills the partitioning function and then move the table back to
being a partition.
NOTE: I have removed the following functions from the handler
interface:
analyze_partitions, check_partitions, optimize_partitions,
repair_partitions
Since they are not longer needed.
THIS ALTERS THE STORAGE ENGINE API
Problem 1: main.loaddata tried to trigger an error caused by
reading files outside the vardir, by reading itself. However,
if loaddata.test is not world-readable (e.g., umask=0077),
then another error is triggered.
Fix 1: allow the other error too.
Problem 2: rpl_slave_skip and rpl_innodb_mixed_dml tried to
copy a file from mysql-test/suite/rpl/data to mysql-test/var
and then read it. That failed too if umask=0077, since the
file would not become world-readable.
Fix 2: move the files from mysql-test/suite/rpl/data to
mysql-test/std_data and update tests accordingly. Remove
the directory mysql-test/suite/rpl/data.
Now, every transaction (including autocommit transactions) starts with
a BEGIN and ends with a COMMIT/ROLLBACK in the binlog.
Added a test case, and updated lots of test case result files.
This patch corrects errors that occurred in a local manual merge.
It adds the originator column in the results of the SHOW EVENTS command
for a series of tests.
The only code change is to correct references to the classname in
enums.
