Let us remove sux_lock::waits and the associated bookkeeping.
Starting with commit 1669c8890c
the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA instrumentation interface is keeping
track of lock waits.
The view INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_MUTEXES only exported counts
of rw-lock waits.
Also, SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX will no longer export any information
about rw-locks.
The following parameters are deprecated:
innodb-background-scrub-data-uncompressed
innodb-background-scrub-data-compressed
innodb-background-scrub-data-interval
innodb-background-scrub-data-check-interval
Removed scrubbing code completely(btr0scrub.h, btr0scrub.cc)
Removed information_schema.innodb_tablespaces_scrubbing tables
Removed the scrubbing logic from fil_crypt_thread()
For compatibility with diagnostic software, let us
return a dummy buffer pool identifier 0 and restore
the columns that were initially deleted in
commit 1a6f708ec5:
information_schema.innodb_buffer_page.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_buffer_page_lru.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_buffer_pool_stats.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_cmpmem.buffer_pool_instance
information_schema.innodb_cmpmem_reset.buffer_pool_instance
Thanks to Vladislav Vaintroub for pointing this out.
Our benchmarking efforts indicate that the reasons for splitting the
buf_pool in commit c18084f71b
have mostly gone away, possibly as a result of
mysql/mysql-server@ce6109ebfd
or similar work.
Only in one write-heavy benchmark where the working set size is
ten times the buffer pool size, the buf_pool->mutex would be
less contended with 4 buffer pool instances than with 1 instance,
in buf_page_io_complete(). That contention could be alleviated
further by making more use of std::atomic and by splitting
buf_pool_t::mutex further (MDEV-15053).
We will deprecate and ignore the following parameters:
innodb_buffer_pool_instances
innodb_page_cleaners
There will be only one buffer pool and one page cleaner task.
In a number of INFORMATION_SCHEMA views, columns that indicated
the buffer pool instance will be removed:
information_schema.innodb_buffer_page.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_buffer_page_lru.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_buffer_pool_stats.pool_id
information_schema.innodb_cmpmem.buffer_pool_instance
information_schema.innodb_cmpmem_reset.buffer_pool_instance
This task involves the implementation for the optimizer trace.
This feature produces a trace for any SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE/,
which contains information about decisions taken by the optimizer during
the optimization phase (choice of table access method, various costs,
transformations, etc). This feature would help to tell why some decisions were
taken by the optimizer and why some were rejected.
Trace is session-local, controlled by the @@optimizer_trace variable.
To enable optimizer trace we need to write:
set @@optimizer_trace variable= 'enabled=on';
To display the trace one can run:
SELECT trace FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.OPTIMIZER_TRACE;
This task also involves:
MDEV-18489: Limit the memory used by the optimizer trace
introduces a switch optimizer_trace_max_mem_size which limits
the memory used by the optimizer trace. This was implemented by
Sergei Petrunia.
Implement according to standard SQL specification 2008.
The check_constraints table is used for fetching metadata about
the constraints defined for tables in all databases.
