strict aliasing violations.
One somewhat major source of strict-aliasing violations and
related warnings is the SQL_LIST structure. For example,
consider its member function `link_in_list` which takes
a pointer to pointer of type T (any type) as a pointer to
pointer to unsigned char. Dereferencing this pointer, which
is done to reset the next field, violates strict-aliasing
rules and might cause problems for surrounding code that
uses the next field of the object being added to the list.
The solution is to use templates to parametrize the SQL_LIST
structure in order to deference the pointers with compatible
types. As a side bonus, it becomes possible to remove quite
a few casts related to acessing data members of SQL_LIST.

SELECT and ALTER TABLE ... REBUILD PARTITION".
ALTER TABLE on InnoDB table (including partitioned tables)
acquired exclusive locks on rows of table being altered.
In cases when there was concurrent transaction which did
locking reads from this table this sometimes led to a
deadlock which was not detected by MDL subsystem nor by
InnoDB engine (and was reported only after exceeding
innodb_lock_wait_timeout).
This problem stemmed from the fact that ALTER TABLE acquired
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock on table being altered. This lock
was interpreted as a write lock and thus for table being
altered handler::external_lock() method was called with
F_WRLCK as an argument. As result InnoDB engine treated
ALTER TABLE as an operation which is going to change data
and acquired LOCK_X locks on rows being read from old
version of table.
In case when there was a transaction which already acquired
SR metadata lock on table and some LOCK_S locks on its rows
(e.g. by using it in subquery of DML statement) concurrent
ALTER TABLE was blocked at the moment when it tried to
acquire LOCK_X lock before reading one of these rows.
The transaction's attempt to acquire SW metadata lock on
table being altered led to deadlock, since it had to wait
for ALTER TABLE to release SNW lock. This deadlock was not
detected and got resolved only after timeout expiring
because waiting were happening in two different subsystems.
Similar deadlocks could have occured in other situations.
This patch tries to solve the problem by changing ALTER TABLE
implementation to use TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock instead of
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ. After this step handler::external_lock()
is called with F_RDLCK as an argument and InnoDB engine
correctly interprets ALTER TABLE as operation which only
reads data from original version of table. Thanks to this
ALTER TABLE acquires only LOCK_S locks on rows it reads.
This, in its turn, causes inter-subsystem deadlocks to go
away, as all potential lock conflicts and thus deadlocks will
be limited to metadata locking subsystem:
- When ALTER TABLE reads rows from table being altered it
can't encounter any locks which conflict with LOCK_S row
locks. There should be no concurrent transactions holding
LOCK_X row locks. Such a transaction should have been
acquired SW metadata lock on table first which would have
conflicted with ALTER's SNW lock.
- Vice versa, when DML which runs concurrently with ALTER
TABLE tries to lock row it should be requesting only LOCK_S
lock which is compatible with locks acquired by ALTER,
as otherwise such DML must own an SW metadata lock on table
which would be incompatible with ALTER's SNW lock.

sql/ha_partition.cc:
When ALTER TABLE creates a new partition to be filled from
other partition lock it in F_WRLCK mode instead of using
mode which was used for locking the whole table (it is
F_RDLCK now).
sql/lock.cc:
Replaced conditions which used TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
lock type with equivalent conditions using
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE. This should allow to get rid
of TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock type eventually.
sql/mdl.cc:
Updated outdated comment to reflect current situation.
sql/sql_base.cc:
Replaced conditions which used TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
lock type with equivalent conditions using

sql/sql_table.cc:
mysql_admin_table():
Use TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE lock type instead of
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ to determine that we need to acquire
upgradable metadata lock. This should allow to completely
get rid of TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ in long term.
mysql_recreate_table():
ALTER TABLE now requires TL_READ_NO_INSERT thr_lock.c lock
instead of TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Changed CREATE/DROP TRIGGER implementation to use
TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock instead of TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock.
The latter is no longer necessary since:
a) We now can rely on metadata locks to achieve proper
isolation between two DDL statements or DDL and DML
statements.
b) This statement does not change any data in table so there
is no need to inform storage engine about it.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
Changed implementation of ALTER TABLE (and CREATE/DROP INDEX
as a consequence) to use TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock instead of
TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ lock. This is possible since:
a) We now can rely on metadata locks to achieve proper
isolation between two DDL statements or DDL and DML
statements.
b) This statement only reads data in table being open.
We write data only to the new version of table and
then replace with it old version of table under
X metadata lock.
Thanks to this change InnoDB will no longer acquire LOCK_X
locks on rows being read by ALTER TABLE (instead LOCK_S
locks will be acquired) and thus cause of bug #51263
"Deadlock between transactional SELECT and ALTER TABLE ...
REBUILD PARTITION" is removed.
Did the similar change for CREATE TRIGGER (see comments
for sql_trigger.cc for details).

transactional SELECT and ALTER TABLE ... REBUILD PARTITION".
The goal of this patch is to decouple type of metadata
lock acquired for table by open_tables() from type of
table-level lock to be acquired on it.
To achieve this we change approach to how we determine what
type of metadata lock should be acquired on table to be open.
Now instead of inferring it at open_tables() time from flags
and type of table-level lock we rely on that type of metadata
lock is properly set at parsing time and is not changed
further.
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc:
Now one needs to properly initialize table list element's
MDL_request object before calling mysql_rm_table_part2().
sql/lock.cc:
lock_table_names() no longer initializes table list elements'
MDL_request objects. Now proper initialization of these
requests is a responsibility of the caller.
sql/lock.h:
Removed MYSQL_OPEN_TAKE_UPGRADABLE_MDL flag which became
unnecessary. Thanks to the fact that we don't reset type of
requests for metadata locks between re-executions we now can
figure out that upgradable locks are requested by simply
looking at their type which were set in the parser. As result
this flag became redundant.
sql/mdl.h:
Added version of new operator which simplifies allocation of
MDL_request objects on a MEM_ROOT.
sql/sp_head.cc:
Added comment explaining why it is OK to infer type of
metadata lock to request from type of table-level lock
for prelocking.
Added enum_mdl_type argument to sp_add_to_query_tables()
to simplify its usage in trigger implementation.
sql/sp_head.h:
Added enum_mdl_type argument to sp_add_to_query_tables()
to simplify its usage in trigger implementation.
sql/sql_base.cc:
- open_table_get_mdl_lock():
Preserve type of MDL_request for table list element which
was set in the parser by creating MDL_request objects on
memory root if MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_MDL or
MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO_MDL flag were specified.
Thanks to this and to the fact that we no longer reset
type of requests for metadata locks between re-executions
we no longer need to acquire exclusive metadata lock on
table to be created in a special way. This lock is acquired
by code handling acquiring of upgradable locks.
Also changed signature/calling convention for this function
to simplify its usage.
- Accordingly special lock strategy for table list elements
which was used for such locks became unnecessary and was
removed. Other strategies were renamed.
- Since we no longer have guarantee that MDL_request object
which were not satisfied due to lock conflict belongs to
table list element Open_table_context class and its methods
were extended to remember pointer to MDL_request which has
caused problem at request_backoff_action() time and use it
in recover_from_failed_open(). Similar approach is used
for cases when problem from which we need to recover is
not related to MDL but to the table itself. In this case
we store pointer to the element of table list.
- Changed open_tables()/open_tables_check_upgradable_mdl()/
open_tables_acquire_upgradable_mdl() not to rely on
MYSQL_OPEN_TAKE_UPGRADABLE_MDL flag to understand when
upgradable metadata locks should be acquired and not to
infer type of MDL lock from type of table-level lock.
Instead we assume that type of MDL to be acquired was set
in the parser (we can do this as type of MDL_request is
no longer reset between re-executions).
sql/sql_class.h:
Since we no longer have guarantee that MDL_request object
which were not satisfied due to lock conflict belongs to

in recover_from_failed_open(). Similar approach is used
for cases when problem from which we need to recover is
not related to MDL but to the table itself. In this case
we store pointer to the element of table list.
sql/sql_db.cc:
Now one needs to properly initialize table list element's
MDL_request object before calling mysql_rm_table_part2()
or mysql_rename_tables().
sql/sql_lex.cc:
st_select_lex/st_select_lex_node::add_table_to_list() method
now has argument which allows specify type of metadata lock
to be requested for table list element being added.
sql/sql_lex.h:
- st_select_lex/st_select_lex_node::add_table_to_list()
method now has argument which specifies type of metadata
lock to be requested for table list element being added.
This allows to explicitly set type of MDL lock to be
acquired for a DDL statement in parser. It is also more
future-proof than inferring type of MDL request from type
of table-level lock.
- Added Yacc_state::m_mdl_type member which specifies which
type of metadata lock should be requested for tables to be
added to table list by a grammar rule in cases when the same
rule is used in several statements requiring different kinds
of metadata locks.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
- st_select_lex::add_table_to_list() method now has argument
which specifies type of metadata lock to be requested for
table list element being added. This allows to explicitly
set type of MDL lock to be acquired for a DDL statement in
parser. It is also more future-proof than inferring type of
MDL request from type of table-level lock.
- EXCLUSIVE_DOWNGRADABLE_MDL lock strategy has a new name -
OTLS_DOWNGRADE_IF_EXISTS.
- Adjusted LOCK TABLES implementation to the fact that we no
longer infer type of metadata lock to be acquired from table
level lock and that type of MDL request is set at parsing.
And thus MYSQL_OPEN_TAKE_UPGRADABLE_MDL flag became
unnecessary.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
TABLE_LIST's lock strategy SHARED_MDL was renamed to OTLS_NONE
as now it means that metadata lock should not be changed during
call to open_table() (if it has been already acquired) and is
also used for exclusive metadata lock.
sql/sql_show.cc:
st_select_lex::add_table_to_list() method now has argument
which specifies type of metadata lock to be requested for
table list element being added.
sql/sql_table.cc:
- Adjusted mysql_admin_table()'s code to the fact that
open_tables() no longer determines what kind of metadata
lock should be obtained basing on type of table-level
lock and flags. Instead type of metadata lock for table
to be open should be set before calling open_tables().
- Changed mysql_alter_table() code to the facts:
a) that now it is responsibility of caller to properly
initalize MDL_request in table list elements before calling
lock_table_names()
b) and that MYSQL_OPEN_TAKE_UPGRADABLE_MDL is no longer
necessary since type of metadata lock to be obtained
at open_tables() time is set during parsing.
- Changed code of mysql_recreate_table() to properly set
type of metadata and table-level lock to be obtained
by mysql_alter_table() which it calls.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Instead of relying on MYSQL_OPEN_TAKE_UPGRADABLE_MDL flag to
force open_tables() to take an upgradable lock we now specify
exact type of lock to be taken when constructing table list
element for table to be open for CREATE/DROP TRIGGER.
sql/sql_view.cc:
We no longer use TABLE_LIST::EXCLUSIVE_MDL strategy to force
open_tables() to take an exclusive metadata lock on view to
be created. Instead we rely on parser setting proper type of
metadata lock to request and open_tables() acquiring it.
This became possible thanks to the fact that we no longer
reset type of MDL_request between statement re-executions.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
Instead of inferring type of MDL_request for table to be
open from type of table-level lock and flags passed to
open_tables() we now explicitly specify them at parsing.
This became possible thanks to the fact that we no longer
reset type of MDL_request between statement re-executions.
In future this should allow to decouple type of metadata
lock from type of table-level lock.
The only exception to this approach is statements implemented
through mysql_admin_table() which re-uses same table list
element several times with different types of table-level
and metadata locks.
We now also properly initialize MDL_request objects for table
list elements which are later passed to lock_table_names()
function.
sql/table.cc:
Do not reset type of MDL_request between statement
re-executions. This became unnecessesary as we no longer
change type of MDL_request residing in table list element.
In its turn this change allows to set type of MDL_request
only once - at parsing time.
sql/table.h:
Got rid of TABLE_LIST::EXCLUSIVE_MDL lock strategy.
Now we can specify that we need to acquire exclusive lock
on table to be processed by open_tables() through setting
an appropriate type of MDL_request at parsing time (this
became possible thanks to the fact that we no longer reset
types of MDL_request's belonging to table list elements
between statement re-execution).
Strategy SHARED_MDL was renamed to OTLS_NONE as now it
means that metadata lock should not be changed during call
to open_table() (if it has been already acquired) and is
also used for exclusive metadata lock.
Strategy EXCLUSIVE_DOWNGRADABLE_MDL was renamed to
OTLS_DOWNGRADE_IF_EXISTS.

Fix for bug #46947 "Embedded SELECT without FOR UPDATE is
causing a lock", with after-review fixes.
SELECT statements with subqueries referencing InnoDB tables
were acquiring shared locks on rows in these tables when they
were executed in REPEATABLE-READ mode and with statement or
mixed mode binary logging turned on.
This was a regression which were introduced when fixing
bug 39843.
The problem was that for tables belonging to subqueries
parser set TL_READ_DEFAULT as a lock type. In cases when
statement/mixed binary logging at open_tables() time this
type of lock was converted to TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock at
open_tables() time and caused InnoDB engine to acquire
shared locks on reads from these tables. Although in some
cases such behavior was correct (e.g. for subqueries in
DELETE) in case of SELECT it has caused unnecessary locking.
This patch tries to solve this problem by rethinking our
approach to how we handle locking for SELECT and subqueries.
Now we always set TL_READ_DEFAULT lock type for all cases
when we read data. When at open_tables() time this lock
is interpreted as TL_READ_NO_INSERT or TL_READ depending
on whether this statement as a whole or call to function
which uses particular table should be written to the
binary log or not (if yes then statement should be properly
serialized with concurrent statements and stronger lock
should be acquired).
Test coverage is added for both InnoDB and MyISAM.
This patch introduces an "incompatible" change in locking
scheme for subqueries used in SELECT ... FOR UPDATE and
SELECT .. IN SHARE MODE.
In 4.1 the server would use a snapshot InnoDB read for
subqueries in SELECT FOR UPDATE and SELECT .. IN SHARE MODE
statements, regardless of whether the binary log is on or off.
If the user required a different type of read (i.e. locking read),
he/she could request so explicitly by providing FOR UPDATE/IN SHARE MODE
clause for each individual subquery.
On of the patches for 5.0 broke this behaviour (which was not documented
or tested), and started to use locking reads fora all subqueries in SELECT ...
FOR UPDATE/IN SHARE MODE. This patch restored 4.1 behaviour.

sql/log_event.cc:
Since LEX::lock_option member was removed we no longer can
rely on its value in Load_log_event::print_query() to
determine that log event correponds to LOAD DATA CONCURRENT

It is initialized at event object construction time and
explicitly indicates whether LOAD DATA was concurrent.

sql/sp_head.cc:
sp_head::reset_lex():
Before parsing substatement reset part of parser state
which needs this (e.g. set Yacc_state::m_lock_type to
default value).
sql/sql_acl.cc:
Since LEX::reset_n_backup_query_tables_list() now also
resets LEX::sql_command member (as it became part of
Query_tables_list class) we have to restore it in cases
when while working with proxy Query_table_list we assume
that LEX::sql_command still corresponds to original SQL
command being executed (for example, when we are logging
statement to the binary log while having Query_tables_list
reset and backed up).
sql/sql_base.cc:
Changed read_lock_type_for_table() to return a weak TL_READ
type of lock in cases when we are executing statement which
won't update tables directly and table doesn't belong to
statement's prelocking list and thus can't be used by a
stored function. It is OK to do so since in this case table
won't be used by statement or function call which will be
written to the binary log, so serializability requirements
for it can be relaxed.
One of results from this change is that SELECTs on InnoDB
tables no longer takes shared row locks for tables which
are used in subqueries (i.e. bug #46947 is fixed).
Another result is that for similar SELECTs on MyISAM tables
concurrent inserts are allowed.
In order to implement this change signature of
read_lock_type_for_table() function was changed to take
pointers to Query_tables_list and TABLE_LIST objects.
sql/sql_base.h:
- Function read_lock_type_for_table() now takes pointers
to Query_tables_list and TABLE_LIST elements as its
arguments since to correctly determine lock type it needs
to know what statement is being performed and whether table
element for which lock type to be determined belongs to
prelocking list.
sql/sql_lex.cc:
- Removed LEX::lock_option and st_select_lex::lock_option
members. Places in parser that were using them now use
Yacc_state::m_lock_type instead.
- To emphasize that LEX::sql_command member is used during
process of opening and locking of tables it was moved to
Query_tables_list class. It is now reset by
Query_tables_list::reset_query_tables_list() method.
sql/sql_lex.h:
- Removed st_select_lex::lock_option member as there is no
real need for per-SELECT lock type (HIGH_PRIORITY option
should apply to the whole statement. FOR UPDATE/LOCK IN
SHARE MODE clauses can be handled without this member).
The main effect which was achieved by introduction of this
member, i.e. using TL_READ_DEFAULT lock type for
subqueries, is now achieved by setting LEX::lock_option
(or rather its replacement - Yacc_state::m_lock_type) to
TL_READ_DEFAULT in almost all cases.
- To emphasize that LEX::sql_command member is used during
process of opening and locking of tables it was moved to
Query_tables_list class.
- Replaced LEX::lock_option with Yacc_state::m_lock_type
in order to emphasize that this value is relevant only
during parsing. Unlike for LEX::lock_option the default
value for Yacc_state::m_lock_type is TL_READ_DEFAULT.
Note that for cases when it is OK to take a "weak" read
lock (e.g. simple SELECT) this lock type will be converted
to TL_READ at open_tables() time. So this change won't
cause negative change in behavior for such statements.
OTOH this change ensures that, for example, for SELECTs
which are used in stored functions TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock
is taken when necessary and as result calls to such stored
functions can be written to the binary log with correct
serialization.
sql/sql_load.cc:
Load_log_event constructor now requires a parameter that
indicates whether LOAD DATA is concurrent.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
LEX::lock_option was replaced with Yacc_state::m_lock_type.
And instead of resetting the latter implicitly in
mysql_init_multi_delete() we do it explicitly in the
places in parser which call this function.
sql/sql_priv.h:
- To be able more easily distinguish high-priority SELECTs
in st_select_lex::print() method added flag for
HIGH_PRIORITY option.
sql/sql_select.cc:
Changed code not to rely on LEX::lock_option to determine
that it is high-priority SELECT. It was replaced with
Yacc_state::m_lock_type which is accessible only at
parse time. So instead of LEX::lock_option we now rely
on a newly introduced flag for st_select_lex::options -
SELECT_HIGH_PRIORITY.
sql/sql_show.cc:
Since LEX::reset_n_backup_query_tables_list() now also
resets LEX::sql_command member (as it became part of
Query_tables_list class) we have to restore it in cases
when while working with proxy Query_table_list we assume
that LEX::sql_command still corresponds to original SQL
command being executed.
sql/sql_table.cc:
Since LEX::reset_query_tables_list() now also resets
LEX::sql_command member (as it became part of
Query_tables_list class) we have to restore value of this
member when this method is called by mysql_admin_table(),
to make this code safe for re-execution.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Since LEX::reset_n_backup_query_tables_list() now also
resets LEX::sql_command member (as it became part of
Query_tables_list class) we have to restore it in cases
when while working with proxy Query_table_list we assume
that LEX::sql_command still corresponds to original SQL
command being executed (for example, when we are logging
statement to the binary log while having Query_tables_list
reset and backed up).
sql/sql_update.cc:
Function read_lock_type_for_table() now takes pointers
to Query_tables_list and TABLE_LIST elements as its
arguments since to correctly determine lock type it needs
to know what statement is being performed and whether table
element for which lock type to be determined belongs to
prelocking list.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
- Removed st_select_lex::lock_option member as there is no
real need for per-SELECT lock type (HIGH_PRIORITY option
should apply to the whole statement. FOR UPDATE/LOCK IN
SHARE MODE clauses can be handled without this member).
The main effect which was achieved by introduction of this
member, i.e. using TL_READ_DEFAULT lock type for
subqueries, is now achieved by setting LEX::lock_option
(or rather its replacement - Yacc_state::m_lock_type) to
TL_READ_DEFAULT in almost all cases.
- Replaced LEX::lock_option with Yacc_state::m_lock_type
in order to emphasize that this value is relevant only
during parsing. Unlike for LEX::lock_option the default
value for Yacc_state::m_lock_type is TL_READ_DEFAULT.
Note that for cases when it is OK to take a "weak" read
lock (e.g. simple SELECT) this lock type will be converted
to TL_READ at open_tables() time. So this change won't
cause negative change in behavior for such statements.
OTOH this change ensures that, for example, for SELECTs
which are used in stored functions TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock
is taken when necessary and as result calls to such stored
functions can be written to the binary log with correct
serialization.
- To be able more easily distinguish high-priority SELECTs
in st_select_lex::print() method we now use new flag
in st_select_lex::options bit-field.
Fix for bug #46947 "Embedded SELECT without FOR UPDATE is
causing a lock", with after-review fixes.
SELECT statements with subqueries referencing InnoDB tables
were acquiring shared locks on rows in these tables when they
were executed in REPEATABLE-READ mode and with statement or
mixed mode binary logging turned on.
This was a regression which were introduced when fixing
bug 39843.
The problem was that for tables belonging to subqueries
parser set TL_READ_DEFAULT as a lock type. In cases when
statement/mixed binary logging at open_tables() time this
type of lock was converted to TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock at
open_tables() time and caused InnoDB engine to acquire
shared locks on reads from these tables. Although in some
cases such behavior was correct (e.g. for subqueries in
DELETE) in case of SELECT it has caused unnecessary locking.
This patch tries to solve this problem by rethinking our
approach to how we handle locking for SELECT and subqueries.
Now we always set TL_READ_DEFAULT lock type for all cases
when we read data. When at open_tables() time this lock
is interpreted as TL_READ_NO_INSERT or TL_READ depending
on whether this statement as a whole or call to function
which uses particular table should be written to the
binary log or not (if yes then statement should be properly
serialized with concurrent statements and stronger lock
should be acquired).
Test coverage is added for both InnoDB and MyISAM.
This patch introduces an "incompatible" change in locking
scheme for subqueries used in SELECT ... FOR UPDATE and
SELECT .. IN SHARE MODE.
In 4.1 the server would use a snapshot InnoDB read for
subqueries in SELECT FOR UPDATE and SELECT .. IN SHARE MODE
statements, regardless of whether the binary log is on or off.
If the user required a different type of read (i.e. locking read),
he/she could request so explicitly by providing FOR UPDATE/IN SHARE MODE
clause for each individual subquery.
On of the patches for 5.0 broke this behaviour (which was not documented
or tested), and started to use locking reads fora all subqueries in SELECT ...
FOR UPDATE/IN SHARE MODE. This patch restored 4.1 behaviour.

Fix merge problem with Bug#37148
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.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
Adjusted test case to trigger an execution path on which bug 41110
"crash with handler command when used concurrently with alter
table" and bug 41112 "crash in mysql_ha_close_table/get_lock_data
with alter table" were originally discovered. Left old test case
which no longer triggers this execution path for the sake of
coverage.
Added test coverage for HANDLER SQL statements and type-aware
metadata locks.
Added a test for the global shared lock and HANDLER SQL.
Updated tests to take into account that the old simple deadlock
detection heuristics was replaced with a graph-based deadlock
detector.

mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
Updated results (see mdl_sync.test).
mysql-test/r/sp-threads.result:
SHOW PROCESSLIST output has changed due to the fact that waiting
for LOCK TABLES WRITE now happens within metadata locking
subsystem.
mysql-test/r/truncate_coverage.result:
Updated results (see truncate_coverage.test).
mysql-test/suite/funcs_1/datadict/processlist_val.inc:
SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST output has changed due to fact that
waiting for LOCK TABLES WRITE now happens within metadata locking
subsystem.
mysql-test/suite/funcs_1/r/processlist_val_no_prot.result:
SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST output has changed due to fact that
waiting for LOCK TABLES WRITE now happens within metadata locking
subsystem.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/t/rpl_sp.test:
Updated to a new SHOW PROCESSLIST state name.
mysql-test/t/debug_sync.test:
Use LOCK TABLES READ instead of LOCK TABLES WRITE as the latter
no longer allows to trigger execution path involving waiting on
thr_lock.c lock and therefore reaching debug sync-point covered
by this test.
mysql-test/t/innodb-lock.test:
Adjusted test case to the fact that innodb_table_locks=0 option is
no longer supported, since LOCK TABLES WRITE handles all its
conflicts within MDL subsystem.
mysql-test/t/innodb_mysql_lock.test:
Added test for bug #37346 "innodb does not detect deadlock between
update and alter table".
mysql-test/t/lock.test:
Added test coverage which checks the fact that we no longer support
DDL under LOCK TABLES on tables which were locked implicitly.
Adjusted existing test cases accordingly.
mysql-test/t/lock_multi.test:
Added test for bug #46272 "MySQL 5.4.4, new MDL: unnecessary
deadlock". Adjusted other test cases to take into account the
fact that waiting for LOCK TABLES ... WRITE now happens within MDL
subsystem.
mysql-test/t/lock_sync.test:
Since LOCK TABLES ... WRITE now takes SNRW metadata lock for
tables locked explicitly we have to implicitly lock InnoDB tables
(through view) to trigger the table-level lock conflict between
TL_WRITE and TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
Added basic test coverage for type-of-operation-aware metadata
locks. Also covered with tests some use cases involving HANDLER
statements in which a deadlock could arise.
Adjusted existing tests to take type-of-operation-aware MDL into
account.
mysql-test/t/multi_update.test:
Update to a new SHOW PROCESSLIST state name.
mysql-test/t/truncate_coverage.test:
Adjusted test case after making LOCK TABLES WRITE to wait until
transactions that use the table to be locked are completed.
Updated to the changed name of DEBUG_SYNC point.
sql/handler.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
sql/lock.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/mdl.cc:
Introduced new type-of-operation aware metadata locks.
To do this:
- Changed MDL_lock to use one list for waiting requests and one
list for granted requests. For each list, added a bitmap
that holds information what lock types a list contains.
Added a helper class MDL_lock::List to manipulate with granted
and waited lists while keeping the bitmaps in sync
with list contents.
- Changed lock-compatibility functions to use bitmaps that
define compatibility.
- Introduced a graph based deadlock detector inspired by
waiting_threads.c from Maria implementation.
- Now that we have a deadlock detector, and no longer have
a global lock to protect individual lock objects, but rather
use an rw lock per object, removed redundant code for upgrade,
and the global read lock. Changed the MDL API to
no longer require the caller to acquire the global
intention exclusive lock by means of a separate method.
Removed a few more methods that became redundant.
- Removed deadlock detection heuristic, it has been made
obsolete by the deadlock detector.
- With operation-type-aware metadata locks, MDL subsystem has
become aware of potential conflicts between DDL and open
transactions. This made it possible to remove calls to
mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() from acquisition
paths for exclusive lock and lock upgrade. Now we can simply
wait for these transactions to complete without fear of
deadlock. Function mysql_lock_abort() has also become
unnecessary for all conflicting cases except when a DDL
conflicts with a connection that has an open HANDLER.
sql/mdl.h:
Introduced new type-of-operation aware metadata locks.
Introduced a graph based deadlock detector and supporting
methods.
Added comments.
God rid of redundant API calls.
Renamed m_lt_or_ha_sentinel to m_trans_sentinel,
since now it guards the global read lock as well as
LOCK TABLES and HANDLER locks.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
Moved the global read lock functionality into a
class.
Added MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_MDL flag which forces
open_tables() to take MDL_SHARED on tables instead of
metadata locks specified in the parser. We use this to
allow PREPARE run concurrently in presence of
LOCK TABLES ... WRITE.
Added signature for find_table_for_mdl_ugprade().
sql/set_var.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been
moved into a class.
sql/sp_head.cc:
When creating TABLE_LIST elements for prelocking or
system tables set the type of request for metadata
lock according to the operation that will be performed
on the table.
sql/sql_base.cc:
- Updated code to use the new MDL API.
- In order to avoid locks starvation we take upgradable
locks all at once. As result implicitly locked tables no
longer get an upgradable lock. Consequently DDL and FLUSH
TABLES for such tables is prohibited.
find_write_locked_table() was replaced by
find_table_for_mdl_upgrade() function.
open_table() was adjusted to return TABLE instance with
upgradable ticket when necessary.
- We no longer wait for all locks on OT_WAIT back off
action -- only on the lock that caused the wait
conflict. Moreover, now we distinguish cases when we
have to wait due to conflict in MDL and old version
of table in TDC.
- Upate mysql_notify_threads_having_share_locks()
to only abort thr_lock.c waits of threads that
have open HANDLERs, since lock conflicts with only
these threads now can lead to deadlocks not detectable
by the MDL deadlock detector.
- Remove mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_locks()
which is no longer needed.
sql/sql_class.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Re-arranged code in THD::cleanup() to simplify assert.
sql/sql_class.h:
Introduced class to incapsulate global read lock
functionality.
Now sentinel in MDL subsystem guards the global read lock
as well as LOCK TABLES and HANDLER locks. Adjusted code
accordingly.
sql/sql_db.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result
TRUNCATE TABLE is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
Inform MDL_context about presence of open HANDLERs.
Since HANLDERs break MDL protocol by acquiring table-level
lock while holding only S metadata lock on a table MDL
subsystem should take special care about such contexts (Now
this is the only case when mysql_lock_abort() is used).
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Do not take upgradable metadata locks when opening tables
for CREATE TABLE SELECT as it is not necessary and limits
concurrency.
When initializing TABLE_LIST objects before adding them
to the table list set the type of request for metadata lock
according to the operation that will be performed on the
table.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result FLUSH
TABLES is no longer allowed for such tables.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
Use MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_MDL flag when opening
tables during PREPARE. This allows PREPARE to run
concurrently in presence of LOCK TABLES ... WRITE.
sql/sql_rename.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
sql/sql_show.cc:
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_table.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result DROP
TABLE is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
We no longer acquire upgradable metadata locks on tables
which are locked by LOCK TABLES implicitly. As result
CREATE/DROP TRIGGER is no longer allowed for such tables.
Updated code to use the new MDL API.
sql/sql_view.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Fixed results of wrong merge that led to misuse of GLR API.
CREATE VIEW statement is not a commit statement.
sql/table.cc:
When resetting TABLE_LIST objects for PS or SP re-execution
set the type of request for metadata lock according to the
operation that will be performed on the table. Do the same
in auxiliary function initializing metadata lock requests
in a table list.
sql/table.h:
When initializing TABLE_LIST objects set the type of request
for metadata lock according to the operation that will be
performed on the table.
sql/transaction.cc:
Global read lock functionality has been moved into a class.
Add a wait-for graph based deadlock detector to the
MDL subsystem.

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.
The problem was that a DROP TRIGGER statement inside a stored
procedure could cause a crash in subsequent invocations. This
was due to the addition, on the first execution, of a temporary
table reference to the stored procedure query table list. In
a subsequent invocation, there would be a attempt to reinitialize
the temporary table reference, which by then was already gone.
The solution is to backup and reset the query table list each
time a trigger needs to be dropped. This ensures that any temp
changes to the query table list are discarded. It is safe to
do so at this time as drop trigger is restricted from more
complicated scenarios (ie, not allowed within stored functions,
etc).

Bug#42546 Backup: RESTORE fails, thinking it finds an existing table
The problem occured when a MDL locking conflict happened for a non-existent
table between a CREATE and a INSERT statement. The code for CREATE
interpreted this lock conflict to mean that the table existed,
which meant that the statement failed when it should not have.
The problem could occur for CREATE TABLE, CREATE TABLE LIKE and
ALTER TABLE RENAME.
This patch fixes the problem for CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE.
It is based on code backported from the mysql-6.1-fk tree written
by Dmitry Lenev. CREATE now uses normal open_and_lock_tables() code
to acquire exclusive locks. This means that for the test case in the bug
description, CREATE will wait until INSERT completes so that it can
get the exclusive lock. This resolves the reported bug.
The patch also prohibits CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE under
LOCK TABLES. Note that this is an incompatible change and must
be reflected in the documentation. Affected test cases have been
updated.
mdl_sync.test contains tests for CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE.
Fixing the issue for ALTER TABLE RENAME is beyond the scope of this
patch. ALTER TABLE cannot be prohibited from working under LOCK TABLES
as this could seriously impact customers and a proper fix would require
a significant rewrite.
