389fba8403 Bug#43758 Query cache can lock up threads in 'freeing items' state
This patch corrects a misstake in the test case for bug patch 43658.

There was a race in the test case when the thread id was retrieved from the processlist.
The result was that the same thread id was signalled twice and one thread id wasn't
signalled at all.

The affected platforms appears to be limited to linux.

02e5ad9881 Bug#43758 Query cache can lock up threads in 'freeing items' state
Early patch submitted for discussion.

It is possible for more than one thread to enter the condition
in query_cache_insert(), but the condition predicate is to
signal one thread each time the cache status changes between
the following states: {NO_FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS,FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS,
TABLE_FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS}

Consider three threads THD1, THD2, THD3

   THD2: select ... => Got a writer in ::store_query
   THD3: select ... => Got a writer in ::store_query
   THD1: flush tables => qc status= FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS;
                      new writers are blocked.
   THD2: select ... => Still got a writer and enters cond in
                       query_cache_insert
   THD3: select ... => Still got a writer and enters cond in
                       query_cache_insert
   THD1: flush tables => finished and signal status change.
   THD2: select ... => Wakes up and completes the insert.
   THD3: select ... => Happily waiting for better times. Why hurry?

This patch is a refactoring of this lock system. It introduces four new methods:
   Query_cache::try_lock()
   Query_cache::lock()
   Query_cache::lock_and_suspend()
   Query_cache::unlock()

This change also deprecates wait_while_table_flush_is_in_progress(). All threads are
queued and put on a conditional wait. On each unlock the queue is signalled. This resolve
the issues with left over threads. To assure that no threads are spending unnecessary
time waiting a signal broadcast is issued every time a lock is taken before a full
cache flush.

mysql-test/r/query_cache_debug.result:
  * Added test case for bug43758
mysql-test/t/query_cache_debug.test:
  * Added test case for bug43758
sql/sql_cache.cc:
  * Replaced calls to wait_while_table_flush_is_in_progress() with
    calls to try_lock(), lock_and_suspend() and unlock().
  * Renamed enumeration Cache_status to Cache_lock_status.
  * Renamed enumeration items to UNLOCKED, LOCKED_NO_WAIT and LOCKED.
    If the LOCKED_NO_WAIT lock type is used to lock the query cache, other
    threads using try_lock() will fail to acquire the lock.
    This is useful if the query cache is temporary disabled due to 
    a full table flush.
sql/sql_cache.h:
  * Replaced calls to wait_while_table_flush_is_in_progress() with
    calls to try_lock(), lock_and_suspend() and unlock().
  * Renamed enumeration Cache_status to Cache_lock_status.
  * Renamed enumeration items to UNLOCKED, LOCKED_NO_WAIT and LOCKED.
    If the LOCKED_NO_WAIT lock type is used to lock the query cache, other
    threads using try_lock() will fail to acquire the lock.
    This is useful if the query cache is temporary disabled due to 
    a full table flush.

664bb23a30 Bug#41098: Query Cache returns wrong result with concurrent insert
The problem is that select queries executed concurrently with
a concurrent insert on a MyISAM table could be cached if the
select started after the query cache invalidation but before
the unlock of tables performed by the concurrent insert. This
race could happen because the concurrent insert was failing
to prevent cache of select queries happening at the same time.

The solution is to add a 'uncacheable' status flag to signal
that a concurrent insert is being performed on the table and
that queries executing at the same time shouldn't cache the
results.

mysql-test/r/query_cache_debug.result:
  Add test case result for Bug#41098
mysql-test/t/disabled.def:
  Re-enable test case.
mysql-test/t/query_cache_debug.test:
  Add test case for Bug#41098
sql/sql_cache.cc:
  Debug sync point for regression testing purposes.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
  Remove meaningless query cache invalidate. There is already
  a preceding invalidate for queries that started before the
  concurrent insert.
storage/myisam/ha_myisam.cc:
  Check for a active concurrent insert.
storage/myisam/mi_locking.c:
  Signal the start of a concurrent insert. Flag is zeroed once
  the state is updated back.
storage/myisam/myisamdef.h:
  Add flag to signal a active concurrent insert.
