This patch introduces timeouts for metadata locks.
The timeout is specified in seconds using the new dynamic system
variable "lock_wait_timeout" which has both GLOBAL and SESSION
scopes. Allowed values range from 1 to 31536000 seconds (= 1 year).
The default value is 1 year.
The new server parameter "lock-wait-timeout" can be used to set
the default value parameter upon server startup.
"lock_wait_timeout" applies to all statements that use metadata locks.
These include DML and DDL operations on tables, views, stored procedures
and stored functions. They also include LOCK TABLES, FLUSH TABLES WITH
READ LOCK and HANDLER statements.
The patch also changes thr_lock.c code (table data locks used by MyISAM
and other simplistic engines) to use the same system variable.
InnoDB row locks are unaffected.
One exception to the handling of the "lock_wait_timeout" variable
is delayed inserts. All delayed inserts are executed with a timeout
of 1 year regardless of the setting for the global variable. As the
connection issuing the delayed insert gets no notification of
delayed insert timeouts, we want to avoid unnecessary timeouts.
It's important to note that the timeout value is used for each lock
acquired and that one statement can take more than one lock.
A statement can therefore block for longer than the lock_wait_timeout
value before reporting a timeout error. When lock timeout occurs,
ER_LOCK_WAIT_TIMEOUT is reported.
Test case added to lock_multi.test.

and MDL".
Concurrent execution of a multi-DELETE statement and ALTER
TABLE statement which affected one of the tables used in
the multi-DELETE sometimes led to deadlock.
Similar deadlocks might have occured when one performed
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE on a view and concurrently executed
ALTER TABLE for the view's underlying table, or when one
concurrently executed TRUNCATE TABLE for InnoDB table and
ALTER TABLE for the same table.
These deadlocks were caused by a discrepancy between types of
metadata and thr_lock.cc locks acquired by those statements.
What happened was that multi-DELETE/TRUNCATE/DML-through-the-
view statement in the first connection acquired SR lock on a
table, then ALTER TABLE would come in in the second connection
and acquire SNW metadata lock and TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
thr_lock.c lock and then would start waiting for the first
connection during lock upgrade. After that the statement in
the first connection would try to acquire TL_WRITE lock on
table and would start waiting for the second connection,
creating a deadlock.
This patch solves this problem by ensuring that we acquire
SW metadata lock in all cases in which we acquiring write
thr_lock.c lock. This guarantees that deadlocks like the
one described above won't occur since all lock conflicts
in such situation are resolved within MDL subsystem.
This patch also adds assert which should guarantee that
such situations won't arise in future.
mysql-test/r/lock_multi.result:
Added main test for bug #50913 "Deadlock between
open_and_lock_tables_derived and MDL".
mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
Added additional coverage for bug #50913 "Deadlock
between open_and_lock_tables_derived and MDL".

Added additional coverage for bug #50913 "Deadlock
between open_and_lock_tables_derived and MDL".
sql/lock.cc:
Added assert that enforces that when we are locking
a non-temporary table we have an appropriate type of
metadata lock on this table.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
Added separate flag for open_tables() to be able specify that
SH metadata locks on table to be open should be acquired.
We can no longer use MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH flag for this
as in addition to use in I_S implementation it is also used
for opening system tables. Since in the latter case we also
acquire thr_lock.c locks using SH metadata lock in it instead
of SR or SW locks may lead to deadlock.
sql/sql_base.cc:
When opening tables don't interpret MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH
flag as request to acquire SH metadata locks. This flag is
also used for opening system tables for which we also take
thr_lock.c locks and thus proper metadata lock to take in
this case is SR or SW lock (otherwise deadlocks can occur).
In cases when SH lock is really required (e.g. when tables
are open by I_S implementation) we rely on that newly
introduced MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO_MDL flag is
used.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
mysql_truncate_by_delete():
Adjust type of metadata lock to be requested after changing
type of thr_lock.c lock for table list element from one
which was set in parser to TL_WRITE.
This removes discrepancy between types of these locks which
allowed deadlocks to creep in.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
When closing table which was open by HANDLER statement clear
TABLE::open_by_handler flag. This allows to use this flag as
a reliable indication that TABLE instance was open by HANDLER
statement in assert which was added to mysql_lock_tables().
sql/sql_parse.cc:
multi_delete_set_locks_and_link_aux_tables():
Adjust type of metadata lock to be requested after changing
type of thr_lock.c lock for table list element from one
which was set in parser to TL_WRITE.
This removes discrepancy between types of these locks which
allowed deadlocks to creep in.
sql/sql_show.cc:
Use newly introduced MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO_MDL
flag in order to acquire SH metadata locks when opening tables
in I_S implementation.
sql/sql_update.cc:
Added comment explaining why in multi-update after deciding
that we need weaker thr_lock.c lock on a table we don't
downgrade metadata lock on it.
sql/sql_view.cc:
When merging view into main statement adjust type of metadata
lock to be requested after changing type of thr_lock.c lock
for table. This removes discrepancy between types of these
locks which allowed deadlocks to creep in.

message:
Fix merge problem with Bug#37148
failed in open_ltable()
The problem was too restrictive asserts that enforced that
open_ltable() was called without any active HANDLERs, LOCK TABLES
or global read locks.
However, this can happen in several cases when opening system
tables. The assert would, for example, be triggered when drop
function was called from a connection with active HANDLERs as
this would cause open_ltable() to be called for mysql.proc.
The assert could also be triggered when using table-based
general log (mysql.general_log).
This patch removes the asserts since they will be triggered in
several legitimate cases and because the asserts are no longer
relevant due to changes in how locks are released.
The patch also fixes set_needs_thr_lock_abort() that before
ignored its parameter and always set the member variable to TRUE.
Test case added to mdl_sync.test.
Thanks to Dmitry Lenev for help with this bug!
There was two problems:
The first was the symptom, caused by bad error handling in
ha_partition. It did not handle print_error etc. when
having no partitions (when used by dummy handler).
The second was the real problem that when dropping tables
it reused the table type (storage engine) from when the lock
was asked for, not the table type that it had when gaining
the exclusive name lock. So that it tried to delete tables
from wrong storage engines.
Solutions for the first problem was to accept some handler
calls to the partitioning handler even if it was not setup
with any partitions, and also if possible fallback
to use the base handler's default functions.
Solution for the second problem was to remove the optimization
to reuse the definition from the cache, instead always check
the frm-file when holding the LOCK_open mutex
(updated with a fix for a debug print crash and better
comments as required by reviewer, and removed optimization
to avoid reading the frm-file).

Moved the check for log-table to not depend of the cache.
Added DEBUG_SYNC points for deterministic test cases.
Add a wait-for graph based deadlock detector to the
MDL subsystem.
Fixes bug #46272 "MySQL 5.4.4, new MDL: unnecessary deadlock" and
bug #37346 "innodb does not detect deadlock between update and
alter table".
The first bug manifested itself as an unwarranted abort of a
transaction with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error by a concurrent ALTER
statement, when this transaction tried to repeat use of a
table, which it has already used in a similar fashion before
ALTER started.
The second bug showed up as a deadlock between table-level
locks and InnoDB row locks, which was "detected" only after
innodb_lock_wait_timeout timeout.
A transaction would start using the table and modify a few
rows.
Then ALTER TABLE would come in, and start copying rows
into a temporary table. Eventually it would stumble on
the modified records and get blocked on a row lock.
The first transaction would try to do more updates, and get
blocked on thr_lock.c lock.
This situation of circular wait would only get resolved
by a timeout.
Both these bugs stemmed from inadequate solutions to the
problem of deadlocks occurring between different
locking subsystems.
In the first case we tried to avoid deadlocks between metadata
locking and table-level locking subsystems, when upgrading shared
metadata lock to exclusive one.
Transactions holding the shared lock on the table and waiting for
some table-level lock used to be aborted too aggressively.
We also allowed ALTER TABLE to start in presence of transactions
that modify the subject table. ALTER TABLE acquires
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock at start, and that block all writes
against the table (naturally, we don't want any writes to be lost
when switching the old and the new table). TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
lock, in turn, would block the started transaction on thr_lock.c
lock, should they do more updates. This, again, lead to the need
to abort such transactions.
The second bug occurred simply because we didn't have any
mechanism to detect deadlocks between the table-level locks
in thr_lock.c and row-level locks in InnoDB, other than
innodb_lock_wait_timeout.
This patch solves both these problems by moving lock conflicts
which are causing these deadlocks into the metadata locking
subsystem, thus making it possible to avoid or detect such
deadlocks inside MDL.
To do this we introduce new type-of-operation-aware metadata
locks, which allow MDL subsystem to know not only the fact that
transaction has used or is going to use some object but also what
kind of operation it has carried out or going to carry out on the
object.
This, along with the addition of a special kind of upgradable
metadata lock, allows ALTER TABLE to wait until all
transactions which has updated the table to go away.
This solves the second issue.
Another special type of upgradable metadata lock is acquired
by LOCK TABLE WRITE. This second lock type allows to solve the
first issue, since abortion of table-level locks in event of
DDL under LOCK TABLES becomes also unnecessary.
Below follows the list of incompatible changes introduced by
this patch:
- From now on, ALTER TABLE and CREATE/DROP TRIGGER SQL (i.e. those
statements that acquire TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock)
wait for all transactions which has *updated* the table to
complete.
- From now on, LOCK TABLES ... WRITE, REPAIR/OPTIMIZE TABLE
(i.e. all statements which acquire TL_WRITE table-level lock) wait
for all transaction which *updated or read* from the table
to complete.
As a consequence, innodb_table_locks=0 option no longer applies
to LOCK TABLES ... WRITE.
- DROP DATABASE, DROP TABLE, RENAME TABLE no longer abort
statements or transactions which use tables being dropped or
renamed, and instead wait for these transactions to complete.
- Since LOCK TABLES WRITE now takes a special metadata lock,
not compatible with with reads or writes against the subject table
and transaction-wide, thr_lock.c deadlock avoidance algorithm
that used to ensure absence of deadlocks between LOCK TABLES
WRITE and other statements is no longer sufficient, even for
MyISAM. The wait-for graph based deadlock detector of MDL
subsystem may sometimes be necessary and is involved. This may
lead to ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error produced for multi-statement
transactions even if these only use MyISAM:
session 1: session 2:
begin;
update t1 ... lock table t2 write, t1 write;
-- gets a lock on t2, blocks on t1
update t2 ...
(ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK)
- Finally, support of LOW_PRIORITY option for LOCK TABLES ... WRITE
was abandoned.
LOCK TABLE ... LOW_PRIORITY WRITE from now on has the same
priority as the usual LOCK TABLE ... WRITE.
SELECT HIGH PRIORITY no longer trumps LOCK TABLE ... WRITE in
the wait queue.
- We do not take upgradable metadata locks on implicitly
locked tables. So if one has, say, a view v1 that uses
table t1, and issues:
LOCK TABLE v1 WRITE;
FLUSH TABLE t1; -- (or just 'FLUSH TABLES'),
an error is produced.
In order to be able to perform DDL on a table under LOCK TABLES,
the table must be locked explicitly in the LOCK TABLES list.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
Adjusted test case to trigger an execution path on which bug 41110
"crash with handler command when used concurrently with alter
table" and bug 41112 "crash in mysql_ha_close_table/get_lock_data
with alter table" were originally discovered. Left old test case
which no longer triggers this execution path for the sake of
coverage.
Added test coverage for HANDLER SQL statements and type-aware
metadata locks.
Added a test for the global shared lock and HANDLER SQL.
Updated tests to take into account that the old simple deadlock
detection heuristics was replaced with a graph-based deadlock
detector.

Updated results (see truncate_coverage.test).
mysql-test/suite/funcs_1/datadict/processlist_val.inc:

subsystem.
mysql-test/suite/funcs_1/r/processlist_val_no_prot.result:
SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST output has changed due to fact that
waiting for LOCK TABLES WRITE now happens within metadata locking
subsystem.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/t/rpl_sp.test:
Updated to a new SHOW PROCESSLIST state name.
mysql-test/t/debug_sync.test:
Use LOCK TABLES READ instead of LOCK TABLES WRITE as the latter
no longer allows to trigger execution path involving waiting on
thr_lock.c lock and therefore reaching debug sync-point covered
by this test.
mysql-test/t/innodb-lock.test:
Adjusted test case to the fact that innodb_table_locks=0 option is
no longer supported, since LOCK TABLES WRITE handles all its
conflicts within MDL subsystem.
mysql-test/t/innodb_mysql_lock.test:
Added test for bug #37346 "innodb does not detect deadlock between
update and alter table".
mysql-test/t/lock.test:
Added test coverage which checks the fact that we no longer support
DDL under LOCK TABLES on tables which were locked implicitly.
Adjusted existing test cases accordingly.
mysql-test/t/lock_multi.test:
Added test for bug #46272 "MySQL 5.4.4, new MDL: unnecessary
deadlock". Adjusted other test cases to take into account the
fact that waiting for LOCK TABLES ... WRITE now happens within MDL
subsystem.
mysql-test/t/lock_sync.test:
Since LOCK TABLES ... WRITE now takes SNRW metadata lock for
tables locked explicitly we have to implicitly lock InnoDB tables
(through view) to trigger the table-level lock conflict between
TL_WRITE and TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
Added basic test coverage for type-of-operation-aware metadata
locks. Also covered with tests some use cases involving HANDLER
statements in which a deadlock could arise.
Adjusted existing tests to take type-of-operation-aware MDL into
account.
mysql-test/t/multi_update.test:
Update to a new SHOW PROCESSLIST state name.
mysql-test/t/truncate_coverage.test:
Adjusted test case after making LOCK TABLES WRITE to wait until
transactions that use the table to be locked are completed.
Updated to the changed name of DEBUG_SYNC point.
sql/handler.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
sql/lock.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/mdl.cc:
Introduced new type-of-operation aware metadata locks.
To do this:
- Changed MDL_lock to use one list for waiting requests and one
list for granted requests. For each list, added a bitmap
that holds information what lock types a list contains.
Added a helper class MDL_lock::List to manipulate with granted
and waited lists while keeping the bitmaps in sync
with list contents.
- Changed lock-compatibility functions to use bitmaps that
define compatibility.
- Introduced a graph based deadlock detector inspired by
waiting_threads.c from Maria implementation.
- Now that we have a deadlock detector, and no longer have
a global lock to protect individual lock objects, but rather
use an rw lock per object, removed redundant code for upgrade,
and the global read lock. Changed the MDL API to
no longer require the caller to acquire the global
intention exclusive lock by means of a separate method.
Removed a few more methods that became redundant.
- Removed deadlock detection heuristic, it has been made
obsolete by the deadlock detector.
- With operation-type-aware metadata locks, MDL subsystem has
become aware of potential conflicts between DDL and open
transactions. This made it possible to remove calls to
mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() from acquisition
paths for exclusive lock and lock upgrade. Now we can simply
wait for these transactions to complete without fear of
deadlock. Function mysql_lock_abort() has also become
unnecessary for all conflicting cases except when a DDL
conflicts with a connection that has an open HANDLER.
sql/mdl.h:
Introduced new type-of-operation aware metadata locks.
Introduced a graph based deadlock detector and supporting
methods.
Added comments.
God rid of redundant API calls.
Renamed m_lt_or_ha_sentinel to m_trans_sentinel,
since now it guards the global read lock as well as
LOCK TABLES and HANDLER locks.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
Moved the global read lock functionality into a
class.
Added MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_MDL flag which forces
open_tables() to take MDL_SHARED on tables instead of
metadata locks specified in the parser. We use this to
allow PREPARE run concurrently in presence of
LOCK TABLES ... WRITE.
Added signature for find_table_for_mdl_ugprade().
sql/set_var.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
sql/sp_head.cc:
When creating TABLE_LIST elements for prelocking or
system tables set the type of request for metadata
lock according to the operation that will be performed
on the table.
sql/sql_base.cc:
- Updated code to use the new MDL API.
- In order to avoid locks starvation we take upgradable
locks all at once. As result implicitly locked tables no
longer get an upgradable lock. Consequently DDL and FLUSH
TABLES for such tables is prohibited.
find_write_locked_table() was replaced by
find_table_for_mdl_upgrade() function.
open_table() was adjusted to return TABLE instance with
upgradable ticket when necessary.
- We no longer wait for all locks on OT_WAIT back off
action -- only on the lock that caused the wait
conflict. Moreover, now we distinguish cases when we
have to wait due to conflict in MDL and old version
of table in TDC.
- Upate mysql_notify_threads_having_share_locks()
to only abort thr_lock.c waits of threads that
have open HANDLERs, since lock conflicts with only
these threads now can lead to deadlocks not detectable
by the MDL deadlock detector.
- Remove mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_locks()
which is no longer needed.
sql/sql_class.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Re-arranged code in THD::cleanup() to simplify assert.
sql/sql_class.h:
Introduced class to incapsulate global read lock
functionality.
Now sentinel in MDL subsystem guards the global read lock
as well as LOCK TABLES and HANDLER locks. Adjusted code
accordingly.
sql/sql_db.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result
TRUNCATE TABLE is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
Inform MDL_context about presence of open HANDLERs.
Since HANLDERs break MDL protocol by acquiring table-level
lock while holding only S metadata lock on a table MDL
subsystem should take special care about such contexts (Now
this is the only case when mysql_lock_abort() is used).
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Do not take upgradable metadata locks when opening tables
for CREATE TABLE SELECT as it is not necessary and limits
concurrency.
When initializing TABLE_LIST objects before adding them
to the table list set the type of request for metadata lock
according to the operation that will be performed on the
table.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result FLUSH
TABLES is no longer allowed for such tables.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
Use MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_MDL flag when opening
tables during PREPARE. This allows PREPARE to run
concurrently in presence of LOCK TABLES ... WRITE.
sql/sql_rename.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
sql/sql_show.cc:
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_table.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result DROP
TABLE is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result
CREATE/DROP TRIGGER is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_view.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Fixed results of wrong merge that led to misuse of GLR API.
CREATE VIEW statement is not a commit statement.
sql/table.cc:
When resetting TABLE_LIST objects for PS or SP re-execution
set the type of request for metadata lock according to the
operation that will be performed on the table. Do the same
in auxiliary function initializing metadata lock requests
in a table list.
sql/table.h:
When initializing TABLE_LIST objects set the type of request
for metadata lock according to the operation that will be
performed on the table.
sql/transaction.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
The auto-inc unsafe warning makes sense even though it's just
one auto-inc table could be involved via a trigger or a stored
function.
However its content was not updated by bug@45677 fixes continuing to mention
two tables whereas the fixes refined semantics of replication of auto_increment
in stored routine.
Fixed with updating the error message, renaming the error and an internal unsafe-condition
constants.
A documentation notice
======================
Inserting into an autoincrement column in a stored function or a trigger
is unsafe for replication.
Even with just one autoincrement column, if the routine is invoked more than
once slave is not guaranteed to execute the statement graph same way as
the master.
And since it's impossible to estimate how many times a routine can be invoked at
the query pre-execution phase (see lock_tables), the statement is marked
pessimistically unsafe.

The problem was that a failure to open a view wasn't being
properly handled. When opening a view with unknown definer,
the open procedure would be treated as successful and would
later crash when attempting to lock the view (which wasn't
opened to begin with).
The solution is to skip further processing when opening a
table if it fails with a fatal error.
mysql-test/r/view.result:
Add test case result for Bug#47734.
mysql-test/t/view.test:
Add test case for Bug#47734.
sql/sql_base.cc:
Skip further processing if opening a table failed due to
a fatal error (for the statement).
condition variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional
variable for the whole subsystem.
This should increase concurrency in this subsystem.
It also opens the way for further changes which are necessary to solve
such bugs as bug #46272 "MySQL 5.4.4, new MDL: unnecessary deadlock"
and bug #37346 "innodb does not detect deadlock between update and alter
table".
Two other notable changes done by this patch:
- MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
metadata lock when per-object metadata lock is acquired. Now this has
to be done by explicit calls outside of MDL subsystem.
- Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables/tables
for purposes of I_S we now create MDL savepoint in the main context
before opening tables and rollback to this savepoint after closing
them. This means that it is now possible to get ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error
even not inside a transaction. This might happen in unlikely case when
one runs DDL on one of system tables while also running DDL on some
other tables. Cases when this ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error is not justified
will be addressed by advanced deadlock detector for MDL subsystem which
we plan to implement.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
Adjusted handler_myisam.test and handler_innodb.test to the fact that
exclusive metadata locks on tables are now acquired according to
alphabetical order of fully qualified table names instead of order

sql/events.cc:
Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc:
Since manipulations with open table state no longer install proxy
MDL_context it does not make sense to perform them in order to
satisfy assert in mysql_rm_tables_part2(). Removed them per agreement
with Cluster team. This has not broken test suite since scenario in
which deadlock can occur and assertion fails is not covered by tests.
sql/lock.cc:
MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
metadata lock when per-object exclusive metadata lock is acquired.
Now this has to be done by explicit calls outside of MDL subsystem.
sql/log.cc:
Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/mdl.cc:
Changed metadata locking subsystem to use mutex per lock and condition
variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional variable
for the whole subsystem.
Changed approach to handling of global metadata locks. Instead of
implicitly acquiring intention exclusive locks when user requests
per-object upgradeable or exclusive locks now we require them to be
acquired explicitly in the same way as ordinary metadata locks.
In fact global lock are now ordinary metadata locks in new GLOBAL
namespace.
To implement these changes:
- Removed LOCK_mdl mutex and COND_mdl condition variable.
- Introduced MDL_lock::m_mutex mutexes which protect individual lock
objects.
- Replaced mdl_locks hash with MDL_map class, which has hash for
MDL_lock objects as a member and separate mutex which protects this
hash. Methods of this class allow to find(), find_or_create() or
remove() MDL_lock objects in concurrency-friendly fashion (i.e.
for most common operation, find_or_create(), we don't acquire
MDL_lock::m_mutex while holding MDL_map::m_mutex. Thanks to MikaelR
for this idea and benchmarks!). Added three auxiliary members to
MDL_lock class (m_is_destroyed, m_ref_usage, m_ref_release) to
support this concurrency-friendly behavior.
- Introduced MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond condition variable to be
used for waiting until this context's pending request can be
satisfied or its thread has to perform actions to resolve potential
deadlock. Context which want to wait add ticket corresponding to the
request to an appropriate queue of waiters in MDL_lock object so
they can be noticed when other contexts change state of lock and be
awaken by them by signalling on MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond.
As consequence MDL_ticket objects has to be used for any waiting
in metadata locking subsystem including one which happens in
MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method.
Another consequence is that MDL_context is no longer copyable and
can't be saved/restored when working with system tables.
- Made MDL_lock an abstract class, which delegates specifying exact
compatibility matrix to its descendants. Added MDL_global_lock child
class for global lock (The old is_lock_type_compatible() method
became can_grant_lock() method of this class). Added MDL_object_lock
class to represent per-object lock (The old MDL_lock::can_grant_lock()
became its method). Choice between two classes happens based on MDL
namespace in MDL_lock::create() method.
- Got rid of MDL_lock::type member as its meaning became ambigous for
global locks.
- To simplify waking up of contexts waiting for lock split waiting queue
in MDL_lock class in two queues. One for pending requests for exclusive
(including intention exclusive) locks and another for requests for
shared locks.
- Added virtual wake_up_waiters() method to MDL_lock, MDL_global_lock and
MDL_object_lock classes which allows to wake up waiting contexts after
state of lock changes. Replaced old duplicated code with calls to this
method.
- Adjusted MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock()/exclusive_lock()/
global_shared_lock(), MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive_lock()
and MDL_context::release_ticket() methods to use MDL_map and
MDL_lock::m_mutex instead of single LOCK_mdl mutex and wake up
waiters according to the approach described above. The latter method
also was renamed to MDL_context::release_lock().
- Changed MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock()/exclusive_lock() and
release_lock() not to handle global locks. They are now supposed to
be taken explicitly like ordinary metadata locks.
- Added helper MDL_context::try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()
and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() methods.
- Moved common code from MDL_context::acquire_global_shared_lock() and
acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() to new method -
MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl().
- Moved common code from MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock(),
try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()/exclusive_lock()
to MDL_context::try_acquire_lock_impl().
- Since acquiring of several exclusive locks can no longer happen under
single LOCK_mdl mutex the approach to it had to be changed. Now we do
it in one by one fashion. This is done in alphabetical order to avoid
deadlocks. Changed MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_locks() accordingly
(as part of this change moved code responsible for acquiring single
exclusive lock to new MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl()
method).
- Since we no longer have single LOCK_mdl mutex which protects all
MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl members using these members to
determine if we have really awaken context holding conflicting
shared lock became inconvinient. Got rid of this member and changed
notify_shared_lock() helper function and process of acquiring
of/upgrading to exclusive lock not to rely on such information.
Now in MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl() and
MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive_lock() we simply
re-try to wake up threads holding conflicting shared locks after
small time out.
- Adjusted MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() and
MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock() to use per-lock
mutexes instead of LOCK_mdl. To do this introduced
MDL_lock::has_pending_exclusive_lock() method.
sql/mdl.h:
Changed metadata locking subsystem to use mutex per lock and condition
variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional variable
for the whole subsystem. In order to implement this change:
- Added MDL_key::cmp() method to be able to sort MDL_key objects
alphabetically. Changed length fields in MDL_key class to uint16
as 16-bit is enough for length of any key.
- Changed MDL_ticket::get_ctx() to return pointer to non-const
object in order to be able to use MDL_context::awake() method
for such contexts.
- Got rid of unlocked versions of can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/
has_pending_conflicting_lock() methods in MDL_context and
MDL_ticket. We no longer has single mutex which protects all
locks. Thus one always has to use versions of these methods
which acquire per-lock mutexes.
- MDL_request_list type of list now counts its elements.
- Added MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond condition variable to be used
for waiting until this context's pending request can be satisfied
or its thread has to perform actions to resolve potential deadlock.
Added awake() method to wake up context from such wait.
Addition of condition variable made MDL_context uncopyable.
As result we no longer can save/restore MDL_context when working
with system tables. Instead we create MDL savepoint before opening
those tables and rollback to it once they are closed.
- MDL_context::release_ticket() became release_lock() method.
- Added auxiliary MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl() method
which does all necessary work to acquire exclusive lock on one object
but should not be used directly as it does not enforce any asserts
ensuring that no deadlocks are possible.
- Since we no longer need to know if thread trying to acquire exclusive
lock managed to wake up any threads having conflicting shared locks
(as, anyway, we will try to wake up such threads again shortly)
- MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl member became unnecessary and
notify_shared_lock() no longer needs to be friend of MDL_context.
Changed approach to handling of global metadata locks. Instead of
implicitly acquiring intention exclusive locks when user requests
per-object upgradeable or exclusive locks now we require them to be
acquired explicitly in the same way as ordinary metadata locks.
- Added new GLOBAL namespace for such locks.
- Added new type of lock to be requested MDL_INTENTION_EXCLISIVE.
- Added MDL_context::try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()
and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() methods.
- Moved common code from MDL_context::acquire_global_shared_lock()
and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() to new method -
MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl().
- Moved common code from MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock(),
try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()/exclusive_lock()
to MDL_context::try_acquire_lock_impl().
- Added helper MDL_context::is_global_lock_owner() method to be
able easily to find what kind of global lock this context holds.
- MDL_context::m_has_global_shared_lock became unnecessary as
global read lock is now represented by ordinary ticket.
- Removed assert in MDL_context::set_lt_or_ha_sentinel() which became
false for cases when we execute LOCK TABLES under global read lock
mode.

sql/sql_base.cc:
close_thread_tables():
Since we no longer use separate MDL_context for opening system
tables we need to avoid releasing all transaction locks when
closing system table. Releasing metadata lock on system table
is now responsibility of THD::restore_backup_open_tables_state().
open_table_get_mdl_lock(),
Open_table_context::recover_from_failed_open():
MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
metadata lock when per-object upgradable or exclusive metadata lock is
acquired. So this have to be done explicitly from these calls.
Changed Open_table_context class to store MDL_request object for
global intention exclusive lock acquired when opening tables.
open_table():
Do not release metadata lock if we have failed to open table as
this lock might have been acquired by one of previous statements
in transaction, and therefore should not be released.
open_system_tables_for_read()/close_system_tables()/
open_performance_schema_table():

metadata lock on system table is now responsibility of
THD::restore_backup_open_tables_state().
Adjusted assert in THD::cleanup() to take into account fact that now
we also use MDL sentinel for global read lock.
sql/sql_class.h:
Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables

- 'mdl_context' member was moved out of Open_tables_state to THD class.
enter_locked_tables_mode()/leave_locked_tables_mode() had to follow.
- Methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table state were
changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition to
Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint.
Changed Open_table_context class to store MDL_request object for
global intention exclusive lock acquired when opening tables.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive

One can use policy classes to specify if such counting is needed
or not needed for particular list.
sql/sql_show.cc:

for I_S purposes was changed to use Open_tables_backup instead of
Open_table_state class as well.
sql/sql_table.cc:
mysql_rm_tables_part2():
Since now global intention exclusive metadata lock is ordinary
metadata lock we no longer can rely that by releasing MDL locks
on all tables we will release all locks acquired by this routine.
So in non-LOCK-TABLES mode we have to release all locks acquired
explicitly.
prepare_for_repair(), mysql_alter_table():
MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention
exclusive metadata lock when per-object exclusive metadata lock

Also changed code not to use special mechanism for open system tables
when it is not really necessary.
Diagnostics_area::set_ok_status at PREPARE
The problem occured during processing of stored routines.
Routines are loaded from mysql.proc, parsed and put into the sp cache by
sp_cache_routine(). The assert occured because the return value from
sp_cache_routine() was not checked for top level CALLs. This meant that any
errors during sp_cache_routine() went unoticed and triggered the assert when
my_ok() was later called.
This is a regression introduced by the patch for Bug#30977, only visible in
source trees with MDL and using debug builds of the server.
This patch fixes the problem by checking the return value from sp_cache_routine()
for top level CALLs and propagating any errors similar to what is done for other
calls to sp_cache_routine().
No test case added.

This change is supposed to reduce number of ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
errors which occur when multi-statement transaction encounters
conflicting metadata lock in cases when waiting is possible.
The idea is not to fail ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error immediately when
we encounter conflicting metadata lock. Instead we release all
metadata locks acquired by current statement and start to wait
until conflicting lock go away. To avoid deadlocks we use simple
empiric which aborts waiting with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error if it
turns out that somebody is waiting for metadata locks owned by
this transaction.
This patch also fixes bug #46273 "MySQL 5.4.4 new MDL: Bug#989
is not fully fixed in case of ALTER".
The bug was that concurrent execution of UPDATE or MULTI-UPDATE
statement as a part of multi-statement transaction that already
has used table being updated and ALTER TABLE statement might have
resulted of loss of isolation between this transaction and ALTER
TABLE statement, which manifested itself as changes performed by
ALTER TABLE becoming visible in transaction and wrong binary log
order as a consequence.
This problem occurred when UPDATE or MULTI-UPDATE's wait in
mysql_lock_tables() call was aborted due to metadata lock
upgrade performed by concurrent ALTER TABLE. After such abort all
metadata locks held by transaction were released but transaction
silently continued to be executed as if nothing has happened.
We solve this problem by changing our code not to release all
locks in such case. Instead we release only locks which were
acquired by current statement and then try to reacquire them
by restarting open/lock tables process. We piggyback on simple
deadlock detector implementation since this change has to be
done anyway for it.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
After introduction of basic deadlock detector for metadata locks
it became necessary to change parts of test for HANDLER statements
which covered some of scenarios in which ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error
was detected in absence of real deadlock (with new deadlock detector
this no longer happens).
Also adjusted test to the fact that HANDLER READ for the table no
longer will be blocked by ALTER TABLE for the same table which awaits
for metadata lock upgrade (this is due to removal of mysql_lock_abort()
from wait_while_table_is_used()).

sql/log_event_old.cc:
close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
locks acquired by this connection.
sql/mdl.cc:
Changed metadata locking subsystem to support basic deadlock detection
with a help of the following simple empiric -- we assume that there is
a deadlock if there is a connection which has to wait for a metadata
lock which is currently acquired by some connection which is itself
waiting to be able to acquire some shared metadata lock.
To implement this change:
- Added MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/_impl() methods
which allow to find out if there is someone waiting for metadata
lock which is held by the connection and therefore deadlocks are
possible if this connection is going to wait for some metadata lock.
To do this added version of MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock()
method which assumes that its caller already owns LOCK_mdl mutex.
- Changed MDL_context::wait_for_locks() to use one of the above methods
to check if somebody is waiting for metadata lock owned by this
context (and therefore deadlock is possible) and emit ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
error in this case. Also now we mark context of connections waiting
inside of this method by setting MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl
member. Thanks to this such connection could be waken up if some
other connection starts waiting for one of its metadata locks and
so a deadlock can occur.
- Adjusted notify_shared_lock() to wake up connections which wait inside
MDL_context::wait_for_locks() while holding shared metadata lock.
- Changed MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive() to add
temporary ticket for exclusive lock to MDL_lock::waiting queue, so
request for metadata lock upgrade can be properly detected by our
empiric.
Also now this method invokes a callback which forces transactions
holding shared metadata lock on the table to call MDL_context::
can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() method even if they don't need any new
metadata locks. Thanks to this such transactions can detect deadlocks/
livelocks between MDL and table-level locks.
Also reduced timeouts between calls to notify_shared_lock()
in MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive() and
MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_locks(). This was necessary
to get rid of call to mysql_lock_abort() in wait_while_table_is_used().
(Now we instead rely on notify_shared_lock() timely calling
mysql_lock_abort_for_thread() for the table on which lock
is being upgraded/acquired).
sql/mdl.h:
- Added a version of MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock() method
to be used in situations when caller already has acquired LOCK_mdl
mutex.
- Added MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/_impl() methods
which allow to find out if there is someone waiting for metadata lock
which is held by this connection and thus deadlocks are possible if
this connections will start waiting for some metadata lock.
- Added MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl member to mark connections
waiting in MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method of metadata locking
subsystem. Added getter method for this private member to make it
accessible in notify_shared_lock() auxiliary so we can wake-up such
connections if they hold shared metadata locks.
- Finally, added mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() callback
to be able force transactions which don't need any new metadata
locks still call MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() and detect
some of deadlocks between metadata locks and table-level locks.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_base.cc:
Changed approach to metadata locking for multi-statement transactions.
We no longer fail ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error immediately when we encounter
conflicting metadata lock. Instead we release all metadata locks
acquired by current statement and start to wait until conflicting
locks to go away by calling MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method.
To avoid deadlocks the latter implements simple empiric which aborts
waiting with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error if it turns out that somebody
is waiting for metadata locks owned by this transaction.
To implement the change described above:
- Introduced Open_table_context::m_start_of_statement_svp member to
store state of metadata locks at the start of the statement.
- Changed Open_table_context::request_backoff_action() not to
fail with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK immediately if back-off is requested
due to conflicting metadata lock.
- Added new argument for close_tables_for_reopen() procedure which
allows to specify subset of metadata locks to be released.
- Changed open_tables() not to release all metadata locks acquired
by current transaction when metadata lock conflict is discovered.
Instead we release only locks acquired by current statement.
- Changed open_ltable() and open_and_lock_tables_derived() not to emit
ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error when mysql_lock_tables() is aborted in
multi-statement transaction when somebody tries to acquire exclusive
metadata lock on the table. Instead we release metadata locks acquired
by current statement and try to wait until they can be re-acquired.
- Adjusted tdc_wait_for_old_versions() to check if there is someone
waiting for one of metadata locks held by this connection and run
deadlock detection in order to avoid deadlocks in some
situations.
- Added mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() callback which
allows to force transactions holding shared metadata lock on the
table to call MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() even if they
don't need any new metadata locks so they can detect potential
deadlocks between metadata locking subsystem and table-level locks.
- Adjusted wait_while_table_is_used() not to set TABLE::version to
0 as it is now done only when necessary by the above-mentioned
callback. Also removed unnecessary call to mysql_lock_abort().
Instead we rely on code performing metadata lock upgrade aborting
waits on the table-level lock for this table by calling
mysql_lock_abort_for_thread() (invoked by
mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock()). In future this should
allow to reduce number of scenarios in which we produce
ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error even though no real deadlock exists.
sql/sql_class.h:
Introduced Open_table_context::m_start_of_statement_svp member to
store state of metadata locks at the start of the statement.
Replaced Open_table_context::m_can_deadlock member with m_has_locks
member to reflect the fact that we no longer unconditionally emit
ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error for transaction having some metadata locks
when conflicting metadata lock is discovered.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_plist.h:
Made I_P_List_iterator<T, B> usable with const lists.
sql/sql_show.cc:
close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_update.cc:
Changed UPDATE and MULTI-UPDATE code not to release all metadata
locks when calls to mysql_lock_tables() are aborted. Instead we
release only locks which are acquired by this statement and then
try to reacquire them by calling open_tables(). This solves
bug #46273 "MySQL 5.4.4 new MDL: Bug#989 is not fully fixed in
case of ALTER".

Bug #30977 Concurrent statement using stored function and DROP FUNCTION
breaks SBR
Bug #48246 assert in close_thread_table
Implement a fix for:
Bug #41804 purge stored procedure cache causes mysterious hang for many
minutes
Bug #49972 Crash in prepared statements
The problem was that concurrent execution of DML statements that
use stored functions and DDL statements that drop/modify the same
function might result in incorrect binary log in statement (and
mixed) mode and therefore break replication.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing metadata locking for
stored procedures and functions. This is similar to what is done
in Bug#25144 for views. Procedures and functions now are
locked using metadata locks until the transaction is either
committed or rolled back. This prevents other statements from
modifying the procedure/function while it is being executed. This
provides commit ordering - guaranteeing serializability across
multiple transactions and thus fixes the reported binlog problem.
Note that we do not take locks for top-level CALLs. This means
that procedures called directly are not protected from changes by
simultaneous DDL operations so they are executed at the state they
had at the time of the CALL. By not taking locks for top-level
CALLs, we still allow transactions to be started inside
procedures.
This patch also changes stored procedure cache invalidation.
Upon a change of cache version, we no longer invalidate the entire
cache, but only those routines which we use, only when a statement
is executed that uses them.
This patch also changes the logic of prepared statement validation.
A stored procedure used by a prepared statement is now validated
only once a metadata lock has been acquired. A version mismatch
causes a flush of the obsolete routine from the cache and
statement reprepare.
Incompatible changes:
1) ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK is reported for a transaction trying to access
a procedure/function that is locked by a DDL operation in
another connection.
2) Procedure/function DDL operations are now prohibited in LOCK
TABLES mode as exclusive locks must be taken all at once and
LOCK TABLES provides no way to specifiy procedures/functions to
be locked.
Test cases have been added to sp-lock.test and rpl_sp.test.
Work on this bug has very much been a team effort and this patch
includes and is based on contributions from Davi Arnaut, Dmitry
Lenev, Magne Mæhre and Konstantin Osipov.

sql/sp.cc:
Change semantics of sp_cache_routine() -- now it has an option

Acquire metadata locks for SP DDL (ALTER/CREATE/DROP). This is
the core of the fix for Bug#30977.
Since caching and cache invalidation scheme was changed, make
sure we don't invalidate the SP cache in the middle of a stored
routine execution. At the same time, make sure we don't access
stale data due to lack of invalidation.
For that, change ALTER FUNCTION/PROCEDURE to not use the cache,
and SHOW PROCEDURE CODE/SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE/FUNCTION to always
read an up to date version of the routine from the cache.

Reset mdl_request.ticket for tickets acquired for routines inlined
through a view, in CHECK TABLE statement, to satisfy an MDL assert.
sql/sql_update.cc:
Move the cleanup of "translation items" to close_tables_for_reopen(),
since it's needed in all cases when we back off, not just
the back-off in multi-update. This fixes a bug when the server
would crash on attempt to back off when opening tables
for a statement that uses information_schema tables.
"HANDLER statements within a transaction might lead to deadlocks".
Introduce a notion of a sentinel to MDL_context. A sentinel
is a ticket that separates all tickets in the context into two
groups: before and after it. Currently we can have (and need) only
one designated sentinel -- it separates all locks taken by LOCK
TABLE or HANDLER statement, which must survive COMMIT and ROLLBACK
and all other locks, which must be released at COMMIT or ROLLBACK.
The tricky part is maintaining the sentinel up to date when
someone release its corresponding ticket. This can happen, e.g.
if someone issues DROP TABLE under LOCK TABLES (generally,
see all calls to release_all_locks_for_name()).
MDL_context::release_ticket() is modified to take care of it.
******
A fix and a test case for Bug#46224 "HANDLER statements within a
transaction might lead to deadlocks".
An attempt to mix HANDLER SQL statements, which are transaction-
agnostic, an open multi-statement transaction,
and DDL against the involved tables (in a concurrent connection)
could lead to a deadlock. The deadlock would occur when
HANDLER OPEN or HANDLER READ would have to wait on a conflicting
metadata lock. If the connection that issued HANDLER statement
also had other metadata locks (say, acquired in scope of a
transaction), a classical deadlock situation of mutual wait
could occur.
Incompatible change: entering LOCK TABLES mode automatically
closes all open HANDLERs in the current connection.
Incompatible change: previously an attempt to wait on a lock
in a connection that has an open HANDLER statement could wait
indefinitely/deadlock. After this patch, an error ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
is produced.
The idea of the fix is to merge thd->handler_mdl_context
with the main mdl_context of the connection, used for transactional
locks. This makes deadlock detection possible, since all waits
with locks are "visible" and available to analysis in a single
MDL context of the connection.
Since HANDLER locks and transactional locks have a different life
cycle -- HANDLERs are explicitly open and closed, and so
are HANDLER locks, explicitly acquired and released, whereas
transactional locks "accumulate" till the end of a transaction
and are released only with COMMIT, ROLLBACK and ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT,
a concept of "sentinel" was introduced to MDL_context.
All locks, HANDLER and others, reside in the same linked list.
However, a selected element of the list separates locks with
different life cycle. HANDLER locks always reside at the
end of the list, after the sentinel. Transactional locks are
prepended to the beginning of the list, before the sentinel.
Thus, ROLLBACK, COMMIT or ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT, only
release those locks that reside before the sentinel. HANDLER locks
must be released explicitly as part of HANDLER CLOSE statement,
or an implicit close.
The same approach with sentinel
is also employed for LOCK TABLES locks. Since HANDLER and LOCK TABLES
statement has never worked together, the implementation is
made simple and only maintains one sentinel, which is used either
for HANDLER locks, or for LOCK TABLES locks.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
Add test coverage for Bug#46224 "HANDLER statements within a
transaction might lead to deadlocks".
Extended HANDLER coverage to cover a mix of HANDLER, transactions
and DDL statements.
mysql-test/r/handler_innodb.result:
Update results (Bug#46224).
mysql-test/r/handler_myisam.result:
Update results (Bug#46224).
sql/lock.cc:
Remove thd->some_tables_deleted, it's never used.
sql/log_event.cc:
No need to check for thd->locked_tables_mode,
it's done inside release_transactional_locks().
sql/mdl.cc:
Implement the concept of HANDLER and LOCK TABLES "sentinel".
Implement a method to clone an acquired ticket.
Do not return tickets beyond the sentinel when acquiring
locks, create a copy.
Remove methods to merge and backup MDL_context, they are now
not used (Hurra!). This opens a path to a proper constructor
and destructor of class MDL_context (to be done in a separate
patch).
Modify find_ticket() to provide information about where
the ticket position is with regard to the sentinel.
sql/mdl.h:
Add declarations necessary for the implementation of the concept
of "sentinel", a dedicated ticket separating transactional and
non-transactional locks.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
Add mark_tmp_table_for_reuse() declaration,
a function to "close" a single session (temporary) table.
sql/sql_base.cc:
Remove thd->some_tables_deleted.
Modify deadlock-prevention asserts and deadlock detection
heuristics to take into account that from now on HANDLER locks
reside in the same locking context.
Add broadcast_refresh() to mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock():
this is necessary for the case when a thread having a shared lock
is asleep in tdc_wait_for_old_versions(). This situation is only
possible with HANDLER t1 OPEN; FLUSH TABLE (since all over code paths
that lead to tdc_wait_for_old_versions() always have an
empty MDL_context). Previously the server would simply deadlock
in this situation.
sql/sql_class.cc:
Remove now unused member "THD::some_tables_deleted".
Move mysql_ha_cleanup() a few lines above in THD::cleanup()
to make sure that all handlers are closed when it's time to
destroy the MDL_context of this connection.
Remove handler_mdl_context and handler_tables.
sql/sql_class.h:
Remove THD::handler_tables, THD::handler_mdl_context,
THD::some_tables_deleted.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
Remove thd->handler_tables.
Remove thd->handler_mdl_context.
Rewrite mysql_ha_open() to have no special provision for MERGE
tables, now that we don't have to manipulate with thd->handler_tables
it's easy to do.
Remove dead code.
Fix a bug in mysql_ha_flush() when we would always flush
a temporary HANDLER when mysql_ha_flush() is called (actually
mysql_ha_flush() never needs to flush temporary tables).
sql/sql_insert.cc:
Update a comment, no more thd->some_tables_deleted.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Implement an incompatible change: entering LOCK TABLES closes
active HANDLERs, if any.
Now that we have a sentinel, we don't need to check
for thd->locked_tables_mode when releasing metadata locks in
COMMIT/ROLLBACK.
sql/sql_plist.h:
Add new (now necessary) methods to the list class.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
Make sure we don't release HANDLER locks when rollback to a
savepoint, set to not keep locks taken at PREPARE.
sql/sql_servers.cc:
Update to a new signature of MDL_context::release_all_locks().
sql/sql_table.cc:
Remove thd->some_tables_deleted.
sql/transaction.cc:
Add comments.
Make sure rollback to (MDL) savepoint works under LOCK TABLES and
with HANDLER tables.

bugfix: fix @@wait_timeout to work with socket timeouts (vs. alarm thread)
The reason for the deadlock was an improper exit from
MDL_context::wait_for_locks() which caused mysys_var->current_mutex to remain
LOCK_mdl even though LOCK_mdl was no longer held by that connection.
This could for example lead to a deadlock in the following way:
1) INSERT DELAYED tries to open a table but fails, and trying to recover it
calls wait_for_locks().
2) Due to a pending exclusive request, wait_for_locks() fails and exits without
resetting mysys_var->current_mutex for the delayed insert handler thread. So it
continues to point to LOCK_mdl.
3) The handler thread manages to open a table.
4) A different connection takes LOCK_open and tries to take LOCK_mdl.
5) FLUSH TABLES from a third connection notices that the handler thread has a
table open, and tries to kill it. This involves locking mysys_var->current_mutex
while having LOCK_open locked. Since current_mutex mistakenly points to LOCK_mdl,
we have a deadlock.
This patch makes sure MDL_EXIT_COND() is called before exiting wait_for_locks().
This clears mysys->current_mutex which resolves the issue.
An assert is added to recover_from_failed_open_table_attempt() after
wait_for_locks() is called, to check that current_mutex is indeed reset.
With this assert in place, existing tests in (e.g.) mdl_sync.test will fail
without this patch.

2630.28.28 Magne Mahre 2008-12-05
Bug #38661 'all threads hang in "opening tables" or "waiting for table"
and cpu is at 100%'
Concurrent execution of FLUSH TABLES statement and at least two statements
using the same table might have led to live-lock which caused all three
connections to stall and hog 100% of CPU.
tdc_wait_for_old_versions() wrongly assumed that there cannot be a share
with an old version and no used TABLE instances and thus was failing to
perform wait in situation when such old share was cached in MDL subsystem
thanks to a still active metadata lock on the table. So it might have
happened that two or more connections simultaneously executing statements
which involve table being flushed managed to prevent each other from
waiting in this function by keeping shared metadata lock on the table
constantly active (i.e. one of the statements managed to take/hold this
lock while other statements were calling tdc_wait_for_old_versions()).
Thus they were forcing each other to loop infinitely in open_tables() -
close_thread_tables_for_reopen() - tdc_wait_for_old_versions() cycle
causing CPU hogging.
This patch fixes this problem by removing this false assumption from
tdc_wait_for_old_versions().
Note that the problem is specific only for server versions >= 6.0.
No test case is submitted for this test, as the test infrastructure
hasn't got the necessary primitives to test the behaviour. The
manifestation is that throughput will decrease to a low level
(possibly 0) after some time, and stay at that level. Several
transactions will not complete.
Manual testing can be done by running the code submitted by Shane
Bester attached to the bug report. If the bug persists, the
transaction thruput will almost immediately drop to near zero
(shown as the transaction count output from the test program staying
on a close to constant value, instead of increasing rapidly).
