bug #57006 "Deadlock between HANDLER and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK" and bug #54673 "It takes too long to get readlock for
'FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK'".
The first bug manifested itself as a deadlock which occurred
when a connection, which had some table open through HANDLER
statement, tried to update some data through DML statement
while another connection tried to execute FLUSH TABLES WITH
READ LOCK concurrently.
What happened was that FTWRL in the second connection managed
to perform first step of GRL acquisition and thus blocked all
upcoming DML. After that it started to wait for table open
through HANDLER statement to be flushed. When the first connection
tried to execute DML it has started to wait for GRL/the second
connection creating deadlock.
The second bug manifested itself as starvation of FLUSH TABLES
WITH READ LOCK statements in cases when there was a constant
stream of concurrent DML statements (in two or more
connections).
This has happened because requests for protection against GRL
which were acquired by DML statements were ignoring presence of
pending GRL and thus the latter was starved.
This patch solves both these problems by re-implementing GRL
using metadata locks.
Similar to the old implementation acquisition of GRL in new
implementation is two-step. During the first step we block
all concurrent DML and DDL statements by acquiring global S
metadata lock (each DML and DDL statement acquires global IX
lock for its duration). During the second step we block commits
by acquiring global S lock in COMMIT namespace (commit code
acquires global IX lock in this namespace).
Note that unlike in old implementation acquisition of
protection against GRL in DML and DDL is semi-automatic.
We assume that any statement which should be blocked by GRL
will either open and acquires write-lock on tables or acquires
metadata locks on objects it is going to modify. For any such
statement global IX metadata lock is automatically acquired
for its duration.
The first problem is solved because waits for GRL become
visible to deadlock detector in metadata locking subsystem
and thus deadlocks like one in the first bug become impossible.
The second problem is solved because global S locks which
are used for GRL implementation are given preference over
IX locks which are acquired by concurrent DML (and we can
switch to fair scheduling in future if needed).
Important change:
FTWRL/GRL no longer blocks DML and DDL on temporary tables.
Before this patch behavior was not consistent in this respect:
in some cases DML/DDL statements on temporary tables were
blocked while in others they were not. Since the main use cases
for FTWRL are various forms of backups and temporary tables are
not preserved during backups we have opted for consistently
allowing DML/DDL on temporary tables during FTWRL/GRL.
Important change:
This patch changes thread state names which are used when
DML/DDL of FTWRL is waiting for global read lock. It is now
either "Waiting for global read lock" or "Waiting for commit
lock" depending on the stage on which FTWRL is.
Incompatible change:
To solve deadlock in events code which was exposed by this
patch we have to replace LOCK_event_metadata mutex with
metadata locks on events. As result we have to prohibit
DDL on events under LOCK TABLES.
This patch also adds extensive test coverage for interaction
of DML/DDL and FTWRL.
Performance of new and old global read lock implementations
in sysbench tests were compared. There were no significant
difference between new and old implementations.
- A prerequisite cleanup patch for making KILL reliable.
The test case main.kill did not work reliably.
The following problems have been identified:
1. A kill signal could go lost if it came in, short before a
thread went reading on the client connection.
2. A kill signal could go lost if it came in, short before a
thread went waiting on a condition variable.
These problems have been solved as follows. Please see also
added code comments for more details.
1. There is no safe way to detect, when a thread enters the
blocking state of a read(2) or recv(2) system call, where it
can be interrupted by a signal. Hence it is not possible to
wait for the right moment to send a kill signal. It has been
decided, not to fix it in the code. Instead, the test case
repeats the KILL statement until the connection terminates.
2. Before waiting on a condition variable, we register it
together with a synchronizating mutex in THD::mysys_var. After
this, we need to test THD::killed again. At some places we did
only test it in a loop condition before the registration. When
THD::killed had been set between this test and the registration,
we entered waiting without noticing the killed flag. Additional
checks ahve been introduced where required.
In addition to the above, a re-write of the main.kill test
case has been done. All sleeps have been replaced by Debug
Sync Facility synchronization. A couple of sync points have
been added to the server code.
To avoid further problems, if the test case fails in spite of
the fixes, the test case has been added to the "experimental"
list for now.

WL#3771
"Audit Plugin Interface"
Implement new plug-in type - AUDIT
New plug-in: audit_null
simply increments counter for how many times it was called.
The event scheduler was not designed to work in embedded mode. This
patch disables and excludes the event scheduler when the server is
compiled for embedded build.
Disabled events weren't removed from the memory queue after the scheduler has been
re-enabled. After recalculation of next execution time of an event, it might get disabled.
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()
--long-query-time is now given in seconds with microseconds as decimals
--min_examined_row_limit added for slow query log
long_query_time user variable is now double with 6 decimals
Added functions to get time in microseconds
Added faster time() functions for system that has gethrtime() (Solaris)
We now do less time() calls.
Added field->in_read_set() and field->in_write_set() for easier field manipulation by handlers
set_var.cc and my_getopt() can now handle DOUBLE variables.
All time() calls changed to my_time()
my_time() now does retry's if time() call fails.
Added debug function for stopping in mysql_admin_table() when tables are locked
Some trivial function and struct variable renames to avoid merge errors.
Fixed compiler warnings
Initialization of some time variables on windows moved to my_init()
Creating an EVENT to be executed at a time close to the end of the allowed
range (2038.01.19 03:14:07 UTC) would cause the server to crash. The
expected behavior is to accept all calendar times within the interval and
reject all other values without crashing.
This patch replaces the function 'sec_to_epoch_TIME' with a Time_zone API call.
This function was broken because it invoked the internal function 'sec_to_epoch'
without respecting the restrictions on the function parameters (and this caused
assertion failure). It also was used as a reverse function to
Time_zone_utc::gmt_sec_to_TIME which it isn't.
Uninitialized in the constructor member variables were
pointing to nirvana and causing a crash when debug information
of the Event Scheduler was dumped in result to COM_DEBUG
packet sent to the server.
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
when there are no up-to-date system tables to support it:
- initialize the scheduler before reporting "Ready for connections".
This ensures that warnings, if any, are printed before "Ready for
connections", and this message is not mangled.
- do not abort the scheduler if there are no system tables
- check the tables once at start up, remember the status and disable
the scheduler if the tables are not up to date.
If one attempts to use the scheduler with bad tables,
issue an error message.
- clean up the behaviour of the module under LOCK TABLES and pre-locking
mode
- make sure implicit commit of Events DDL works as expected.
- add more tests
Collateral clean ups in the events code.
This patch fixes Bug#23631 Events: SHOW VARIABLES doesn't work
when mysql.event is damaged
This patch corrects errors that occurred in a local manual merge as a result
of updating the local repository and includes changes necessary to correct
problems found during the recalculation of next execution of events in RBR.
Made year 2000 handling more uniform
Removed year 2000 handling out from calc_days()
The above removes some bugs in date/datetimes with year between 0 and 200
Now we get a note when we insert a datetime value into a date column
For default values to CREATE, don't give errors for warning level NOTE
Fixed some compiler failures
Added library ws2_32 for windows compilation (needed if we want to compile with IOCP support)
Removed duplicate typedef TIME and replaced it with MYSQL_TIME
Better (more complete) fix for: Bug#21103 "DATE column not compared as DATE"
Fixed properly Bug#18997 "DATE_ADD and DATE_SUB perform year2K autoconversion magic on 4-digit year value"
Fixed Bug#23093 "Implicit conversion of 9912101 to date does not match cast(9912101 as date)"
BUG#26429: SHOW CREATE EVENT is incorrect for an event that
STARTS NOW()
BUG#26431: Impossible to re-create an event from backup if its
STARTS clause is in the past
WL#3698: Events: execution in local time zone
The problem was that local times specified by the user in AT, STARTS
and ENDS of CREATE EVENT/ALTER EVENT statement were converted to UTC,
and the original time zone was forgotten. This way, event scheduler
couldn't honor Daylight Saving Time shifts, and times shown to the
user were also in UTC. Additionally, CREATE EVENT didn't allow times
in the past, thus preventing straightforward event restoration from
old backups.
This patch reworks event scheduler time computations, performing them
in the time zone associated with the event. Also it allows times to
be in the past.
The patch adds time_zone column to mysql.event table.
NOTE: The patch is almost final, but the bug#9953 should be pushed
first.
This changeset adds replication of events and user-defined functions.
There are several bug reports involved in this change:
BUG#16421, BUG#17857, BUG#20384:
This patch modifies the mysql.events table to permit the addition of
another enum value for the status column. The column now has values
of ('DISABLED','SLAVESIDE_DISABLED','ENABLED'). A status of
SLAVESIDE_DISABLED is set on the slave during replication of events.
This enables users to determine which events werereplicated from the
master and to later enable them if they promote the slave to a master.
The CREATE, ALTER, and DROP statements are binlogged.
A new test was added for replication of events (rpl_events).
BUG#17671:
This patch modifies the code to permit logging of user-defined functions.
Note: this is the CREATE FUNCTION ... SONAME variety. A more friendly error
message to be displayed should a replicated user-defined function not be
found in the loadable library or if the library is missing from the
slave.The CREATE andDROP statements are binlogged. A new test was added
for replication of user-defined functions (rpl_udf).
The patch also adds a new column to the mysql.event table named
'originator' that is used to store the server_id of the server that
the event originated on. This enables users to promote a slave to a
master and later return the promoted slave to a slave and disable the
replicated events.
This patch implements the idea of the bug report by making Event_queue
unaware of Event_db_repository by making a higher level class - Events,
which is aware of most of all classes, responsible for passing all data
needed for adding/updating/deleting an event to/from the queue.
Introduces few new classes :
- Event_worker_thread
- Event_queue_element_for_exec
Removed a lot of compiler warnings
Removed not used variables, functions and labels
Initialize some variables that could be used unitialized (fatal bugs)
%ll -> %l
