"CSV does not work with NULL value in datetime fields"
Attempting to insert a row with a NULL value for a DATETIME field
results in a CSV file which the storage engine cannot read.
Don't blindly assume that "0" is acceptable for all field types,
Since CSV does not support NULL, we find out from the field the
default non-null value.
Do not permit the creation of a table with a nullable columns.
Faster thr_alarm()
Added 'Opened_files' status variable to track calls to my_open()
Don't give warnings when running mysql_install_db
Added option --source-install to mysql_install_db
I had to do the following renames() as used polymorphism didn't work with Forte compiler on 64 bit systems
index_read() -> index_read_map()
index_read_idx() -> index_read_idx_map()
index_read_last() -> index_read_last_map()
Additional changes for bug#29903
- Changed to do embedded build part as normal build, when
WITH_EMBEDDED_SERVER is set.
- Allow both normal and debug build with embedded.
- Build static embedded library by pointing out all source and compile
it all, i.e. not building libraries from libraries, not portable.
- Let embedded use generated files from the "sql" directory, added
dependencies to make sure built before embedded.
- Mark library "dbug" in TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES() with "debug", so only
linked in when debug target is used.
- Removed change of target name with "mysqld${MYSQLD_EXE_SUFFIX}", as
others can't depend on it, not defined at configure time. Instead
set the output file name.
- Created work around for bug in CMake 2.4.6 and output names, to
set the "mysqld<suffix>.pdb" name to the same base name.
- Set the correct manifest "name" (patch by iggy)
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.
Problem: the data file changes made during delete/update are not visible to
other threads as the file is reopened, so reading data
with old descriptors might miss the changes.
Fix: reopen the data file before reading if it was reopened during
delete/update to ensure there's no data behind.
Note: there's no simple test case.
Problem: we don't take into account the length of the data written
to the temporary data file during update on a CSV table.
Fix: properly calculate the data file length during update.
Problem: we don't adjust share->rows_recorded and local_saved_data_file_length
deleting rows from a CSV table, so following table check may fail.
Fix: properly adjust those values.
leads to the table corruption
New Field::store() method implemented to explicitly set thd->count_cuted_fields
before value storing, instead of (incorrectly) setting it in the CSV storage engine.
Thread row counter now properly incremented during check and repair in the CSV engine.
make server crash
UPDATE against CSV table may cause server crash or update a table with wrong
values.
CSV can write only a whole row at once. That means it must read all columns,
that it is not going to update, and write them along with updated columns.
But only limited set of columns was read, those that were needed for the
UPDATE query.
With this fix all columns are read in case we're performing an UPDATE.
Adding support to allow engines to tell what formats they can handle.
The server will generate an error if it is not possible to log the
statement according to the logging mode in effect.
Adding flags to several storage engines to state what they can handle.
Changes to NDB handler removing code that forces row-based mode and
adding flag saying that NDB can only handle row format.
Adding check that binlog flags are only used for real tables that are
opened for writing.
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
The problem was that some facilities (like CONVERT_TZ() function or
server HELP statement) may require implicit access to some tables in
'mysql' database. This access was done by ordinary means of adding
such tables to the list of tables the query is going to open.
However, if we issued LOCK TABLES before that, we would get "table
was not locked" error trying to open such implicit tables.
The solution is to treat certain tables as MySQL system tables, like
we already do for mysql.proc. Such tables may be opened for reading
at any moment regardless of any locks in effect. The cost of this is
that system table may be locked for writing only together with other
system tables, it is disallowed to lock system tables for writing and
have any other lock on any other table.
After this patch the following tables are treated as MySQL system
tables:
mysql.help_category
mysql.help_keyword
mysql.help_relation
mysql.help_topic
mysql.proc (it already was)
mysql.time_zone
mysql.time_zone_leap_second
mysql.time_zone_name
mysql.time_zone_transition
mysql.time_zone_transition_type
These tables are now opened with open_system_tables_for_read() and
closed with close_system_tables(), or one table may be opened with
open_system_table_for_update() and closed with close_thread_tables()
(the latter is used for mysql.proc table, which is updated as part of
normal MySQL server operation). These functions may be used when
some tables were opened and locked already.
NOTE: online update of time zone tables is not possible during
replication, because there's no time zone cache flush neither on LOCK
TABLES, nor on FLUSH TABLES, so the master may serve stale time zone
data from cache, while on slave updated data will be loaded from the
time zone tables.
- Removed not used variables
- Changed some ulong parameters/variables to ulonglong (possible serious bug)
- Added casts to get rid of safe assignment from longlong to long (and similar)
- Added casts to function parameters
- Fixed signed/unsigned compares
- Added some constructores to structures
- Removed some not portable constructs
Better fix for bug Bug #21428 "skipped 9 bytes from file: socket (3)" on "mysqladmin shutdown"
(Added new parameter to net_clear() to define when we want the communication buffer to be emptied)
Bug #21785 "Server crashes after rename of the log table" and
Bug #21966 "Strange warnings on create like/repair of the log
tables"
According to the patch, from now on, one should use RENAME to
perform a log table rotation (this should also be reflected in
the manual).
Here is a sample:
use mysql;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log2 LIKE general_log;
RENAME TABLE general_log TO general_log_backup, general_log2 TO general_log;
The rules for Rename of the log tables are following:
IF 1. Log tables are enabled
AND 2. Rename operates on the log table and nothing is being
renamed to the log table.
DO 3. Throw an error message.
ELSE 4. Perform rename.
The very RENAME query will go the the old (backup) table. This is
consistent with the behavoiur we have with binlog ROTATE LOGS
statement.
Other problems, which are solved by the patch are:
1) Now REPAIR of the log table is exclusive operation (as it should be), this
also eliminates lock-related warnings. and
2) CREATE LIKE TABLE now usese usual read lock on the source table rather
then name lock, which is too restrictive. This way we get rid of another
log table-related warning, which occured because of the above fact
(as a side-effect, name lock resulted in a warning).
In practice this means that handlerton is now created by the server and is passed to the engine. Plugin startups can now also control how plugins are inited (and can optionally pass values). Bit more flexibility to those who want to write plugin interfaces to the database.
