removed in MySQL 6.0
CREATE TABLE... TYPE= returns the warning "The syntax
'TYPE=storage_engine' is deprecated and will be removed in
MySQL 6.0. Please use 'ENGINE=storage_engine' instead"
This syntax is deprecated already from version 5.4.4, so
the message has been changed.
In addition, the deprecation macro was changed to reflect
the ServerPT decision not to include version number in the
warning message.
A number of test result files have been changed as a
consequence of the change in the deprecation macro.
Queries optimized with GROUP_MIN_MAX didn't cleanup KEYREAD
optimization properly. As a result subsequent queries may
return incomplete rows (fields are initialized to default
values).

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.
Grouping by a subquery in a query with a distinct aggregate
function lead to a wrong result (wrong and unordered
grouping values).
There are two related problems:
1) The query like this:
SELECT (SELECT t1.a) aa, COUNT(DISTINCT b) c
FROM t1 GROUP BY aa
returned wrong result, because the outer reference "t1.a"
in the subquery was substituted with the Item_ref item.
The Item_ref item obtains data from the result_field object
that refreshes once after the end of each group. This data
is not applicable to filesort since filesort() doesn't care
about groups (and doesn't update result_field objects with
copy_fields() and so on). Also that data is not applicable
to group separation algorithm: end_send_group() checks every
record with test_if_group_changed() that evaluates Item_ref
items, but it refreshes those Item_ref-s only after the end
of group, that is a vicious circle and the grouped column
values in the output are shifted.
Fix: if
a) we grouping by a subquery and
b) that subquery has outer references to FROM list
of the grouping query,
then we substitute these outer references with
Item_direct_ref like references under aggregate
functions: Item_direct_ref obtains data directly
from the current record.
2) The query with a non-trivial grouping expression like:
SELECT (SELECT t1.a) aa, COUNT(DISTINCT b) c
FROM t1 GROUP BY aa+0
also returned wrong result, since JOIN::exec() substitutes
references to top-level aliases in SELECT list with Item_copy
caching items. Item_copy items have same refreshing policy
as Item_ref items, so the whole groping expression with
Item_copy inside returns wrong result in filesort() and
end_send_group().
Fix: include aliased items into GROUP BY item tree instead
of Item_ref references to them.
failed on HANDLER + I_S
This assert was triggered when an I_S query tried to acquire a
metadata lock on a table which was already locked by a HANDLER
statement in the same connection.
First the HANDLER took a MDL_SHARED lock. Afterwards, the I_S query
requested a MDL_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO lock. The existing MDL_SHARED ticket
is found in find_ticket() since it satisfies
ticket->has_stronger_or_equal_type(mdl_request->type) as MDL_SHARED
and MDL_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO have equal strengths, just different priority.
However, two asserts later check lock type strengths using relational
operators (>= and <=) rather than MDL_ticket::has_stronger_or_equal_type().
These asserts are triggered since MDL_SHARED >= MDL_SHARED_HIGH_PRIORITY
is false (mapped to 1 and 2 respectively).
This patch updates the asserts to use MDL_ticket::has_stronger_or_equal_type()
rather than relational operators to check lock type strength.
Test case added to include/handler.inc.
logging is disabled
The server would hit an assertion because of a DBUG violation.
There was a missing DBUG_RETURN and instead a plain return
was used.
This patch replaces the return with DBUG_RETURN.
Change the error code for ER_WARN_I_S_SKIPPED_TABLE, to not
upset the tests that rely on ER_SLAVE_CONVERSION_ERROR error

Fix a merge bug with binlogging of CREATE TABLE (temporary tables).
HANDLER OPEN
The problem was a too restrictive assert in the code for
HANDLER ... OPEN and HANDLER ... READ that checked table->next
to verify that we didn't open views or merge tables.
This pointer is also used to link temporary tables together
(see thd->temporary_tables). In this case TABLE::next can be
set even if we're trying to open a single table.
This patch adjust the two asserts to also check for the presence
of temporary tables.
Test case added to handler_myisam.test.
This was a deadlock between ALTER TABLE and another DML statement
(or LOCK TABLES ... READ). ALTER TABLE would wait trying to upgrade
its lock to MDL_EXCLUSIVE and the DML statement would wait trying
to acquire a TL_READ_NO_INSERT table level lock.
This could happen if one connection first acquired a MDL_SHARED_READ
lock on a table. In another connection ALTER TABLE is then started.
ALTER TABLE eventually blocks trying to upgrade to MDL_EXCLUSIVE,
but while holding a TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ table level lock.
If the first connection then tries to acquire TL_READ_NO_INSERT,
it will block and we have a deadlock since neither connection can
proceed.
This patch fixes the problem by allowing TL_READ_NO_INSERT
locks to be granted if another connection holds TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
on the same table. This will allow the DML statement to proceed
such that it eventually can release its MDL lock which in turn
makes ALTER TABLE able to proceed.
Note that TL_READ_NO_INSERT was already partially compatible with
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ as the latter would be granted if the former
lock was held. This patch just makes the opposite true as well.
Also note that since ALTER TABLE takes an upgradable MDL lock,
there will be no starvation of ALTER TABLE statements by
statements acquiring TL_READ or TL_READ_NO_INSERT.
Test case added to lock_sync.test.
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!

Debug build of server crashed due to assert failure in MDL
subsystem when one tried to execute multi-table REPAIR or
OPTIMIZE in autocommit=0 mode.
The assert failure occured when multi-table REPAIR or OPTIMIZE
started processing of second table from its table list and
tried to acquire upgradable metadata lock on this table.
The cause of the assert failure were MDL locks left over from
processing of previous table. It turned out that in autocommit=0
mode close_thread_tables() which happens at the end of table
processing doesn't release metadata locks.
This fix solves problem by releasing locks explicitly using
MDL_context::release_trans_locks() call.
fulltext search and row op.
The search for fulltext indexes is searching for some special
predicate layouts. While doing so it's not checking for the number
of columns of the expressions it tries to calculate.
And since row expressions can't return a single scalar value there
was a crash.
Fixed by checking if the expressions are scalar (in addition to
being constant) before calling Item::val_xxx() methods.
Fix Bug#50555 "handler commands crash server in my_hash_first()"
as a post-merge fix (the new handler tests are not passing
otherwise).
- in hash.c, don't call calc_hash if ! my_hash_inited().
- add tests and results for the test case for Bug#50555
Performing fulltext prefix search (a word with truncation
operator) may cause a dead-loop. ft_min_word_len value
doesn't matter actually.
The problem was introduced along with "smarter index merge"
optimization.
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).
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.
