WHEN KILLING
Suppose there is a query waiting for a lock. If the user kills
this query, then "Got error -1 when reading table" error message
must not be logged in the server log file. Since this is a user
requested interruption, no spurious error message must be logged
in the server log. This patch will remove the error message from
the log.

Problem: mysqlbinlog exits without any error code in case of
file write error. It is because of the fact that the calls
to Log_event::print() method does not return a value and the
thus any error were being ignored.
Resolution: We resolve this problem by checking for the
IO_CACHE::error == -1 after every call to Log_event:: print()
and terminating the further execution.
Analysis:
-------------
If server is started with limit of MAX_CONNECTIONS and
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS then only MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS of any particular
users can be connected to server and total MAX_CONNECTIONS of client can
be connected to server.
Server maintains a counter for total CONNECTIONS and total CONNECTIONS
from particular user.
Here, MAX_CONNECTIONS of connections are created to server. Out of this
MAX_CONNECTIONS, connections from particular user (say USER1) are
also created. The connections from USER1 is lesser than
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS. After that there was one more connection request from
USER1. Since USER1 can still create connections as he havent reached
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS, server increments counter of CONNECTIONS per user.
As server already has MAX_CONNECTIONS of connections, next check to total
CONNECTION count fails. In this case control is returned WITHOUT
decrementing the CONNECTIONS per user. So the counter per user CONNECTIONS goes
on incrementing for each attempt until current connections are closed.
And because of this counter per CONNECTIONS reached MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS.
So, next connections form USER1 user always returns with MAX_USER_CONNECTION
limit error, even when total connection to sever are less than MAX_CONNECTIONS.
Fix:
-------------
This issue is occurred because of not handling counters properly in the
server. Changed the code to handle per user connection counters properly.
Details:
- Archive storage engine file access were not instrumented and thus
were not shown in PS tables.
Fix:
- Added instrumentation code by using PS Apis for I/O.

This bug was introduced in early stages of plugin. We were not
checking for an implicit lock on sec index rec for trx_id that is
stamped on current version of the clust_index in case where the
clust_index has a previous delete marked version.
IN THE ERROR LOG
Problem:
Using mysqlbinlog with the --read-from-remote-server option as shown below
prints a message in error log for each call. This happens for 5.5 and above
versions
mysqlbinlog -uroot -p --read-from-remote-server --host=localhost test
Message in error log file is given below:
120312 10:27:57 [Note] Start binlog_dump to slave_server(0), pos(test, 4)
The problem is that it can fill up the error log if the command is called
very often.
Analysis:
The below mentioned print function is called from "mysql_binlog_send" function
which causes the "Start binlog_dump..." string to be printed in error log file.
sql_print_information("Start binlog_dump to master_thread_id(%lu)
slave_server(%d)..."
Fix:
A condition has been added in such a way that the 'sql_print_information'
will be invoked only when the "log_warnings" variable is set to >1
otherwise don't call the 'sql_print_information' function.
updating the result file. Because a multi-row insert now reserves the
auto increment values before hand, if any explicitly specified auto
increment values are there, then some of the reserved values are lost.
INNODB_AUTOINC_LOCK_MODE=1 AND USING TRIGGER
When an insert stmt like "insert into t values (1),(2),(3)" is
executed, the autoincrement values assigned to these three rows are
expected to be contiguous. In the given lock mode
(innodb_autoinc_lock_mode=1), the auto inc lock will be released
before the end of the statement. So to make the autoincrement
contiguous for a given statement, we need to reserve the auto inc
values at the beginning of the statement.
Modified the fix based on review comment by Svoj.
This is a followup to the fix for Bug#12340997
get_interval_value() was trying to parse the input string,
looking for leading '-' while skipping whitespace.
The macro my_isspace() does not work for utf32 character set,
since my_charset_utf32_general_ci.ctype == NULL.
Solution: convert input to ASCII before parsing,
and use the character set of the returned ASCII string.
Problem: After the fix for Bug#12589870, a new field that
stores the length of db name was added in the buffer that
stores the query to be executed. Unlike for the plain user
session, the replication execution did not allocate the
necessary chunk in Query-event constructor. This caused an
invalid read while accessing this field.
Solution: We fix this problem by allocating a necessary chunk
in the buffer created in the Query_log_event::Query_log_event()
and store the length of database name.
PROBLEM:
Threads end-up in deadlock due to locks acquired as described
below,
con1: Run Query on a table.
It is important that this SELECT must back-off while
trying to open the t1 and enter into wait_for_condition().
The SELECT then is blocked trying to lock mysys_var->mutex
which is held by con3. The very significant fact here is
that mysys_var->current_mutex will still point to LOCK_open,
even if LOCK_open is no longer held by con1 at this point.
con2: Try dropping table used in con1 or query some table.
It will hold LOCK_open and be blocked trying to lock
kernel_mutex held by con4.
con3: Try killing the query run by con1.
It will hold THD::LOCK_thd_data belonging to con1 while
trying to lock mysys_var->current_mutex belonging to con1.
But current_mutex will point to LOCK_open which is held
by con2.
con4: Get innodb engine status
It will hold kernel_mutex, trying to lock THD::LOCK_thd_data
belonging to con1 which is held by con3.
So while technically only con2, con3 and con4 participate in the
deadlock, con1's mysys_var->current_mutex pointing to LOCK_open
is a vital component of the deadlock.
CYCLE = (THD::LOCK_thd_data -> LOCK_open ->
kernel_mutex -> THD::LOCK_thd_data)
FIX:
LOCK_thd_data has responsibility of protecting,
1) thd->query, thd->query_length
2) VIO
3) thd->mysys_var (used by KILL statement and shutdown)
4) THD during thread delete.
Among above responsibilities, 1), 2)and (3,4) seems to be three
independent group of responsibility. If there is different LOCK
owning responsibility of (3,4), the above mentioned deadlock cycle
can be avoid. This fix introduces LOCK_thd_kill to handle
responsibility (3,4), which eliminates the deadlock issue.
Note: The problem is not found in 5.5. Introduction MDL subsystem
caused metadata locking responsibility to be moved from TDC/TC to
MDL subsystem. Due to this, responsibility of LOCK_open is reduced.
As the use of LOCK_open is removed in open_table() and
mysql_rm_table() the above mentioned CYCLE does not form.

The following scenario crashes our mysql server:
1. set global innodb_file_per_table=1;
2. create table t1(c1 int) engine=innodb;
3. alter table t1 discard tablespace;
4. alter table t1 add unique index(c1);
Step 4 crashes the server. This patch introduces a check on discarded
tablespace to avoid the crash.

FULLTEXT INDEX AND CONCURRENT DML.
Problem Statement:
------------------
1) Create a table with FT index.
2) Enable concurrent inserts.
3) In multiple threads do below operations repeatedly
a) truncate table
b) insert into table ....
c) select ... match .. against .. non-boolean/boolean mode
After some time we could observe two different assert core dumps
Analysis:
--------
1)assert core dump at key_read_cache():
Two select threads operating in-parallel on same key
root block.
1st select thread block->status is set to BLOCK_ERROR
because the my_pread() in read_block() is returning '0'.
Truncate table made the index file size as 1024 and pread
was asked to get the block of count bytes(1024 bytes)
from offset of 1024 which it cannot read since its
"end of file" and retuning '0' setting
"my_errno= HA_ERR_FILE_TOO_SHORT" and the key_file_length,
key_root[0] is same i.e. 1024. Since block status has BLOCK_ERROR
the 1st select thread enter into the free_block() and will
be under wait on conditional mutex by making status as
BLOCK_REASSIGNED and goes for wait_on_readers(). Other select
thread will also work on the same block and sees the status as
BLOCK_ERROR and enters into free_block(), checks for BLOCK_REASSIGNED
and asserting the server.
2)assert core dump at key_write_cache():
One select thread and One insert thread.
Select thread gets the unlocks the 'keycache->cache_lock',
which allows other threads to continue and gets the pread()
return value as'0'(please see the explanation above) and
tries to get the lock on 'keycache->cache_lock' and waits
there for the lock.
Insert thread requests for the block, block will be assigned
from the hash list and makes the page_status as
'PAGE_WAIT_TO_BE_READ' and goes for the read_block(), waits
in the queue since there are some other threads performing
reads on the same block.
Select thread which was waiting for the 'keycache->cache_lock'
mutex in the read_block() will continue after getting the my_pread()
value as '0' and sets the block status as BLOCK_ERROR and goes to
the free_block() and go to the wait_for_readers().
Now the insert thread will awake and continues. and checks
block->status as not BLOCK_READ and it asserts.
Fix:
---
In the full text code, multiple readers of index file is not guarded.
Hence added below below code in _ft2_search() and walk_and_match().
to lock the key_root I have used below code in _ft2_search()
if (info->s->concurrent_insert)
mysql_rwlock_rdlock(&share->key_root_lock[0]);
and to unlock
if (info->s->concurrent_insert)
mysql_rwlock_unlock(&share->key_root_lock[0]);

There can be cases when the optimizer calls ha_partition::records_in_range
when there are no matching partitions. So the DBUG_ASSERT of
!tot_used_partitions does assert.
Fixed by returning 0 instead when no matching partitions are found.
This will avoid the crash. records_in_range will then try to find the
biggest used partition, which will not find any partition and
records_in_range will then return 0, meaning non rows can be found.
Patch contributed by Davi Arnaut at twitter.
Issue/Cause:
Issue is of memory corruption.During optimization phase, pattern to be matched in where
clause, is prepared. This is done in Item_func_concat::val_str() function which forms the
resultant string (tmp_value) and return its pointer. In caller, Item_func_like::fix_fields,
pattern is made to point to this string (tmp_value). In further processing, tmp_value is
getting modified which causes pattern to have changed/wrong values.
Fix:
Allocate its own memroy location in caller, copy value of resultant string (tmp_value)
into that and make pattern to point to that. This makes sure no further changes to
tmp_value will affect pattern.
