Assertion `bitmap_is_set_all(&table->s->all_set)' failed in
handler::ha_reset
This assertion could be triggered if two connections simultaneously
executed two bitmap test functions on the same bitmap. For example,
the assertion could be triggered if one connection executed UPDATE
while a second connection executed SELECT on the same table.
Even if bitmap test functions have read-only semantics and have
const bitmaps as parameter, several of them modified the internal
state of the bitmap. With interleaved execution of two such functions
it was possible for one function to modify the state of the same
bitmap that the other function had just modified. This lead to an
inconsistent state and could trigger the assert.
Internally the bitmap uses 32 bit words for storage. Since bitmaps
can contain any number of bits, the last word in the bitmap may
not be fully used. A 32 bit mask is maintained where a bit is set
if the corresponding bit in the last bitmap word is unused.
The problem was that several test functions applied this mask to
the last word. Sometimes the mask was negated and used to zero out
the remainder of the last word and sometimes the mask was used as-is
to fill the remainder of the last word with 1's. This meant that if
a function first used the negated mask and another function then
used the mask as-is (or vice-versa), the first function would then
get the wrong result.
This patch fixes the problem by changing the implementation of
9 bitmap functions that modified the bitmap state even if the
bitmap was declared const. These functions now preserve the
internal state of the bitmap. This makes it possible for
two connections to concurrently execute two of these functions
on the same bitmap without issues.
The patch also removes dead testing code from my_bitmap.c.
These tests have already been moved to unittest/mysys/bitmap-t.c.
Existing test coverage of my_bitmap has been extended.
No MTR test case added as this would require adding several sync
points to the bitmap functions. The patch has been tested with
a non-deterministic test case posted on the bug report.
Bug #55755 : Date STD variable signness breaks server on FreeBSD and OpenBSD
* Added a check to configure on the size of time_t
* Created a macro to check for a valid time_t that is safe to use with datetime
functions and store in TIMESTAMP columns.
* Used the macro consistently instead of the ad-hoc checks introduced by 52315
* Fixed compliation warnings on platforms where the size of time_t is smaller than
the size of a long (e.g. OpenBSD 4.8 64 amd64).
Bug #52315: utc_date() crashes when system time > year 2037
* Added a correct check for the timestamp range instead of just variable size check to
SET TIMESTAMP.
* Added overflow checking before converting to time_t.
* Using a correct localized error message in this case instead of the generic error.
* Added a test suite.
* fixed the checks so that they check for unsigned time_t as well. Used the checks
consistently across the source code.
* fixed the original test case to expect the new error code.
From a user perspective, the problem is that a FLUSH LOGS or SIGHUP
signal could end up associating the stdout and stderr to random
files. In the case of this bug report, the streams would end up
associated to InnoDB ibd files.
The freopen(3) function is not thread-safe on FreeBSD. What this
means is that if another thread calls open(2) during freopen()
is executing that another thread's fd returned by open(2) may get
re-associated with the file being passed to freopen(3). See FreeBSD
PR number 79887 for reference:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=79887
This problem is worked around by substituting a internal hook within
the FILE structure. This avoids the loss of atomicity by not having
the original fd closed before its duplicated.

When installing plugins, there is a missing check
for slash (/) in the path on Windows. Note that on
Windows, both / and \ can be used to separate
directories.
This patch fixes the issue by:
- Adding a FN_DIRSEP symbol for all platforms
consisting of a string of legal directory
separators.
- Adding a charset-aware version of strcspn().
- Adding a check_valid_path() function that uses
my_strcspn() to check if any FN_DIRSEP character
is in the supplied string.
- Using the check_valid_path() function in
sql_plugin.cc and sql_udf.cc (which means
replacing the existing test there).
The problem is that the logic which checks if a pointer is
valid relies on a poor heuristic based on the start and end
addresses of the data segment and heap.
Apart from miscalculating the heap bounds, this approach also
suffers from the fact that memory can come from places other
than the heap. See Bug#58528 for a more detailed explanation.
On Linux, the solution is to access the process's memory
through /proc/self/task/<tid>/mem, which allows for retrieving
the contents of pages within the virtual address space of
the calling process. If a address range is not mapped, a
input/output error is returned.
Use __builtin_stpcpy only if the system supports stpcpy.
This is necessary as in some cases a call to stpcpy will
be emitted if the built-in can not optimized.
Quoting from the bug report:
The pstack library has been included in MySQL since version
4.0.0. It's useless and should be removed.
Details: According to its own documentation, pstack only works
on Linux on x86 in 32 bit mode and requires LinuxThreads and a
statically linked binary. It doesn't really support any Linux
from 2003 or later and doesn't work on any other OS.
The --enable-pstack option is thus deprecated and has no effect.
Fix assorted warnings that are generated in optimized builds.
Most of it is silencing variables that are set but unused.
This patch also introduces the MY_ASSERT_UNREACHABLE macro
which helps the compiler to deduce that a certain piece of
code is unreachable.
For crash testing: kill the server without generating core file.
include/my_dbug.h
Use kill(getpid(), SIGKILL) which cannot be caught by signal handlers.
All DBUG_XXX macros should be no-ops in optimized mode, do that for DBUG_ABORT as well.
sql/handler.cc
Kill server without generating core.
sql/log.cc
Kill server without generating core.
Make the my_compiler.h header, like my_attribute.h, part of
the distribution. This is required due to the dependency of
the former on the latter (which can undefine __attribute__).
Reverted the ulong->uint diff
Re-applied the first diff.
The original commit message follows:
enum plugin system variables are ulong internally, not int.
On systems where long is not the same as an int it causes
problems.
Fixed by correct typecasting. Removed the test from the
experimental list.
The enum system variables were handled inconsistently
as ints, unsigned int and unsigned long on various places.
This caused problems on platforms on which
sizeof(int) != sizeof(long).
Fixed by homogenizing the type of the enum variables
to unsigned int, since it's size compatible with the C enum
type.
Removed the test from the experimental list.
Fix warnings flagged by the new warning option -Wunused-but-set-variable
that was added to GCC 4.6 and that is enabled by -Wunused and -Wall. The
option causes a warning whenever a local variable is assigned to but is
later unused. It also warns about meaningless pointer dereferences.
strict aliasing violations.
Post-merge fix: include my_compiler.h before my_attribute.h
as the latter will undef __attribute__ if the compiler is not
GCC. Based on the compiler version, in my_compiler.h we know
for sure whether the aligned attribute is supported. Furthermore,
undefining attribute might cause bugs if some system header
uses it.
strict aliasing violations.
Another rather noisy violation of strict aliasing rules
is the spatial code which makes use of stack-based memory
(of type Geometry_buffer) to provide placement for Geometry
objects. Although a placement new is allowed to dynamically
change the type of a object, the object returned by the
new placement was being ignored and the original stack-based
object was being casted to the new type, thus violating strict
aliasing rules.
The solution is to reorganize the code so that the object
returned by the new placement is used instead of casting the
original object. Also, to ensure that the stack-based object
is properly aligned with respect to the objects it provides
placement for, a set of compiler-dependent macros and types
are introduced so that the alignment of objects can be inquired
and specified.
Although the C standard mandates that sprintf return the number
of bytes written, some very ancient systems (i.e. SunOS 4)
returned a pointer to the buffer instead. Since these systems
are not supported anymore and are hopefully long dead by now,
simply remove the portability wrapper that dealt with this
discrepancy. The autoconf check was causing trouble with GCC.
The atomic operations implementation on 5.1 has a few problems,
which might cause tests to abort randomly. Since no code in 5.1
uses atomic operations, simply remove the code.
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
POSIX requires that a signal handler defined with sigaction()
is not reset on delivering a signal unless SA_NODEFER or
SA_RESETHAND is set. It is therefore unnecessary to redefine
the handler on signal delivery on platforms where sigaction()
is used without those flags.
The default value of the myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size could be
higher than the maximum accepted value, leading to warnings upon
the server start.
The solution is to simply set the value to the maximum value in a
32-bit built (2147483647, one less than the current). This should
be harmless as the option is currently unused in 5.1.
strict aliasing violations.
Essentially, the problem is that large parts of the server were
developed in simpler times (last decades, pre C99 standard) when
strict aliasing and compilers supporting such optimizations were
rare to non-existent. Thus, when compiling the server with a modern
compiler that uses strict aliasing rules to perform optimizations,
there are several places in the code that might trigger undefined
behavior.
As evinced by some recent bugs, GCC does a somewhat good of job
misoptimizing such code, but on the other hand also gives warnings
about suspicious code. One problem is that the warnings aren't
always accurate, yet we can't afford to just shut them off as we
might miss real cases. False-positive cases are aggravated mostly
by casts that are likely to trigger undefined behavior.
The solution is to start a cleanup process focused on fixing and
reducing the amount of strict-aliasing related warnings produced
by GCC and others compilers. A good deal of noise reduction can
be achieved by just removing useless casts that are product of
historical cruft and are likely to trigger undefined behavior if
dereferenced.
BUILD/*: Add valgrind_configs=--with-valgrind.
BUILD/*: Remove -USAFEMALLOC from valgrind_flags.
configure.in: Add AC_ARG_WITH(valgrind) and HAVE_VALGRIND.
include/my_sys.h: Define a number of MEM_ wrappers for VALGRIND_ functions.
include/my_sys.h: Make TRASH do MEM_UNDEFINED().
include/m_string.h: Remove unused macro bzero_if_purify(A,B).
_mymalloc(): Declare MEM_UNDEFINED() on the allocated memory.
_myfree(): Declare MEM_NOACCESS() on the freed memory.
storage/innobase/include/univ.i: Enable UNIV_DEBUG_VALGRIND based on
HAVE_VALGRIND rather than HAVE_purify.
Possible things to do:
* In my_global.h, remove the defined(HAVE_purify) condition
from the _WIN32 uint3korr().
* In my_global.h *int*korr(), use | instead of +
in order to keep the Valgrind V bits accurate
* Consider replacing HAVE_purify with HAVE_VALGRIND
* Use VALGRIND_CREATE_BLOCK, VALGRIND_DISCARD in mem_root and similar places
The server could be tricked to read packets indefinitely if it
received a packet larger than the maximum size of one packet.
This problem is aggravated by the fact that it can be triggered
before authentication.
The solution is to no skip big packets for non-authenticated
sessions. If a big packet is sent before a session is authen-
ticated, a error is returned and the connection is closed.
to cleanup open connections
It was possible to UNINSTALL storage engine plugin when binding
between THD object and storage engine is still active (e.g. in
the middle of transaction).
To avoid unclean deactivation (uninstall) of storage engine plugin
in the middle of transaction, additional storage engine plugin
lock is acquired by thd_set_ha_data().
If ha_data is not null and storage engine plugin was not locked
by thd_set_ha_data() in this connection before, storage engine
plugin gets locked.
If ha_data is null and storage engine plugin was locked by
thd_set_ha_data() in this connection before, storage engine
plugin lock gets released.
If handlerton::close_connection() didn't reset ha_data, server does
it immediately after calling handlerton::close_connection().
Note that this is just a framework fix, storage engines must switch
to thd_set_ha_data() from thd_ha_data() if they want to see fit.
Several problems addressed:
1. The maximum value for --open_files_limit on non-windows boxes
is now raised to UINT_MAX (the maximum possible without significant
changes in the code). The maximum value on windows is kept to be
2048 due to a known limitation (bug 24509).
2. mysqld_safe now supports --open_files_limit=xx in addition to
--open-files-limit=xx
3. mysqld_safe always passes through --open[_-]files[_-]limit
to the underlying mysqld. It used to pass it through only if it
the user running the script has access to the root directory or
there was an --user argument specified.
4. Fixed a prototype in my_file.c to match its counterpart in
the other #ifdef branch.
