Bug#31621: Windows server hanging during shutdown using named pipes
and idle connection
Problem: when idle pipe connection is forcefully closed with KILL
statement or when the server goes down, thread that is closing connection
would hang infinitely in CloseHandle(). The reason for the hang is that
named pipe operations are performed synchronously. In this mode all IOs
on pipe are serialized, that is CloseHandle() will not abort ReadFile()
in another thread, but wait for ReadFile() to complete.
The fix implements asynchrnous mode for named pipes, where operation of file
are not synchronized. Read/Write operation would fire an async IO and wait for
either IO completion or timeout.
Note, that with this patch timeouts are properly handled for named pipes.
Post-review: Win32 timeout code has been fixed for named pipes and shared
memory. We do not store pointer to NET in vio structure, only the read and
write timeouts.
BUG#47073 - valgrind errs, corruption,failed repair of partition,
low myisam_sort_buffer_size
Fixed race conditions discovered with the provided test case and
stabilized test case.
Backport from 6.0 to 5.1.
Only those sync points are included, which are used in debug_sync.test.
The Debug Sync Facility allows to place synchronization points
in the code:
open_tables(...)
DEBUG_SYNC(thd, "after_open_tables");
lock_tables(...)
When activated, a sync point can
- Send a signal and/or
- Wait for a signal
Nomenclature:
- signal: A value of a global variable that persists
until overwritten by a new signal. The global
variable can also be seen as a "signal post"
or "flag mast". Then the signal is what is
attached to the "signal post" or "flag mast".
- send a signal: Assign the value (the signal) to the global
variable ("set a flag") and broadcast a
global condition to wake those waiting for
a signal.
- wait for a signal: Loop over waiting for the global condition until
the global value matches the wait-for signal.
Please find more information in the top comment in debug_sync.cc
or in the worklog entry.
Restore a stub of the removed mysql_odbc_escape_string function
to fix a ABI breakage. The function was intended to be private
and used only by Connector/ODBC, but, unfortunately, it was exported
as part of the ABI. Nonetheless, only a stub is restored as the
original function is inherently broken and shouldn't be used.
This restoration only applies to MySQL 5.0. This will be addressed
differently in later versions -- reworked library versioning.
can crash under load
Backport from 5.1.
Does also include key cache fixes from:
Bug 44068 (RESTORE can disable the MyISAM Key Cache)
Bug 40944 (Backup: crash after myisampack)
CREATE TABLE...LIKE...
The mysql server option 'sync_frm' is ignored when table is created with
syntax CREATE TABLE .. LIKE..
Fixed by adding the MY_SYNC flag and calling my_sync() from my_copy() when
the flag is set.
In mysql_create_table(), when the 'sync_frm' is set, MY_SYNC flag is passed
to my_copy().
Note: TestCase is not attached and can be tested manually using debugger.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
- Define and pass compile time path variables as pre-processor definitions to
mimic the makefile build.
- Set new CMake version and policy requirements explicitly.
- Changed DATADIR to MYSQL_DATADIR to avoid conflicting definition in
Platform SDK header ObjIdl.h which also defines DATADIR.
not logged
Errors encountered during initialization of the SSL subsystem
are printed to stderr, rather than to the error log.
This patch adds a parameter to several SSL init functions to
report the error (if any) out to the caller. The function
init_ssl() in mysqld.cc is moved after the initialization of
the log subsystem, so that any error messages can be logged to
the error log. Printing of messages to stderr has been
retained to get diagnostic output in a client context.
it returns misleading 'table is full'
Innodb returns a misleading error message "table is full"
when the number of active concurrent transactions is greater
than 1024.
Fixed by adding errorcode "ER_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS" to the
error codes. Innodb should return HA_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS
to mysql which is then mapped to ER_TOO_MANY_CONCURRENT_TRXS
Note: testcase is not written as this was reproducible only by
changing innodb code.
A REPLACE in the MERGE engine is actually a REPLACE
into one (FIRST or LAST) of the underlying MyISAM
tables. So in effect the server works on the meta
data of the MERGE table, while the real insert happens
in the MyISAM table.
The MERGE table has no index, while MyISAM has a
unique index. When a REPLACE into a MERGE table (
and the REPLACE conflicts with a duplicate in a
child table) is done, we try to access the duplicate
key information for the MERGE table. This information
actually does not exist, hence this results in a crash.
The problem can be resolved by modifying the MERGE
engine to provide us the duplicate key information
directly, instead of just returning the MyISAM index
number as the error key. Then the SQL layer (or "the
server") does not try to access the key_info of the
MERGE table, which does not exist.
The current patch modifies the MERGE engine to provide
the position for a record where a unique key violation
occurs.
Fixed the following problems:
1. cmake 2.6 warning because of a changed default on
how the dependencies to libraries with a specified
path are resolved.
Fixed by requiring cmake 2.6.
2. Removed an obsolete pre-NT4 hack including defining
Windows system defines to alter the behavior of windows.h.
3. Disabled warning C4065 on compiling sql_yacc.cc because
of a know incompatibility in some of the newer bison binaries.
and base tables
myrg_attach_children() could reuse a buffer that was allocated
previously based on a definition of a child table. The problem
was that the child's definition might have been changed, so
reusing the buffer could lead to crashes or valgrind errors
under some circumstances.
Fixed by changing myrg_attach_children() so that the
rec_per_key_part buffer is reused only when the child table
have not changed, and reallocated otherwise (the old buffer is
deallocated if necessary).
unnecessarily
The problem is that libmysqlclient.so is built with THREAD
undefined, while a client compiling against the same header
files will see THREAD as defined and definitions in
my_pthread.h will be included, possibly resulting in undefined
symbols that cannot be resolved with libmysqlclient.so.
The suggested solution is to require that clients wanting to
link with libmysqlclient.so should be built with
MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS defined. This requires a documentation
change, and more details for this will be supplied if this
patch is approved.
The MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS define was renamed from
UNDEF_THREADS_HACK, to get a more suitable (less suspicious)
name for the define. (The UNDEF_THREADS_HACK is retained for
backwards compatibility, though.)
This patch is also in anticipation of WL#4958, which will
remove this problem altogether by dropping the building of
libmysqlclient.
Failure to allocate memory for the hash->array element,
caused hash_init to return without initializing the other
members of the hash. Thus although the dynamic array
buffer may be allocated at a later point in the code, the
incompletely initialized hash caused fatal failures.
This patch moves the initialization of the other members
of the hash above the array allocation, so that the usage
of this hash will not result in fatal failures.
Bug#34309: '_PC' macro redefinition
For reasons that are now a mystery, we had defined a CPP symbol to
help ancient compilers work better (in some way that's lost to history).
This interferes with at least one modern compiler.
Now, don't define the _PC symbol. Those other underscore-leading
symbols are suspect also, but at least the names aren't inscrutable.
Let's leave them for now.
The problem was that new lock types were being added without a
corresponding description. Since the lock types (enum values)
are used as indices to the description array, the descriptions
could be shifted depending on the lock type. The solution is to
ensure that every lock type has a correspondent description.
