A prominent bottleneck in mtr_t::commit() is log_sys.mutex between
log_sys.append_prepare() and log_close().
User-visible change: The minimum innodb_log_file_size will be
increased from 1MiB to 4MiB so that some conditions can be
trivially satisfied.
log_sys.latch (log_latch): Replaces log_sys.mutex and
log_sys.flush_order_mutex. Copying mtr_t::m_log to
log_sys.buf is protected by a shared log_sys.latch.
Writes from log_sys.buf to the file system will be protected
by an exclusive log_sys.latch.
log_sys.lsn_lock: Protects the allocation of log buffer
in log_sys.append_prepare().
sspin_lock: A simple spin lock, for log_sys.lsn_lock.
Thanks to Vladislav Vaintroub for suggesting this idea, and for
reviewing these changes.
mariadb-backup: Replace some use of log_sys.mutex with recv_sys.mutex.
buf_pool_t::insert_into_flush_list(): Implement sorting of flush_list
because ordering is otherwise no longer guaranteed. Ordering by LSN
is needed for the proper operation of redo log checkpoints.
log_sys.append_prepare(): Advance log_sys.lsn and log_sys.buf_free by
the length, and return the old values. Also increment write_to_buf,
which was previously done in log_close().
mtr_t::finish_write(): Obtain the buffer pointer from
log_sys.append_prepare().
log_sys.buf_free: Make the field Atomic_relaxed,
to simplify log_flush_margin(). Use only loads and stores
to avoid costly read-modify-write atomic operations.
buf_pool.flush_list_requests: Replaces
export_vars.innodb_buffer_pool_write_requests
and srv_stats.buf_pool_write_requests.
Protected by buf_pool.flush_list_mutex.
buf_pool_t::insert_into_flush_list(): Do not invoke page_cleaner_wakeup().
Let the caller do that after a batch of calls.
recv_recover_page(): Invoke a minimal part of
buf_pool.insert_into_flush_list().
ReleaseBlocks::modified: A number of pages added to buf_pool.flush_list.
ReleaseBlocks::operator(): Merge buf_flush_note_modification() here.
log_t::set_capacity(): Renamed from log_set_capacity().
In commit 685d958e38 (MDEV-14425),
the log parsing in mariadb-backup --backup was rewritten.
The parameter STORE_IF_EXISTS that is being passed to recv_sys.parse_mtr()
or recv_sys.parse_pmem() instead of STORE_NO caused unnecessary additional
memory allocation for redo log records.
mtr_t::is_block_dirtied(), mtr_t::memo_push(): Never set m_made_dirty
for pages of the temporary tablespace. Ever since
commit 5eb539555b
we never add those pages to buf_pool.flush_list.
mtr_t::commit(): Implement part of mtr_t::prepare_write() here,
and avoid acquiring log_sys.mutex if no log is written.
During IMPORT TABLESPACE fixup, we do not write log, but we must
add pages to buf_pool.flush_list and for that, be prepared
to acquire log_sys.flush_order_mutex.
mtr_t::do_write(): Replaces mtr_t::prepare_write().
The aim of the InnoDB change buffer is to avoid delays when a leaf page
of a secondary index is not present in the buffer pool, and a record needs
to be inserted, delete-marked, or purged. Instead of reading the page into
the buffer pool for making such a modification, we may insert a record to
the change buffer (a special index tree in the InnoDB system tablespace).
The buffered changes are guaranteed to be merged if the index page
actually needs to be read later.
The change buffer could be useful when the database is stored on a
rotational medium (hard disk) where random seeks are slower than
sequential reads or writes.
Obviously, the change buffer will cause write amplification, due to
potentially large amount of metadata that is being written to the
change buffer. We will have to write redo log records for modifying
the change buffer tree as well as the user tablespace. Furthermore,
in the user tablespace, we must maintain a change buffer bitmap page
that uses 2 bits for estimating the amount of free space in pages,
and 1 bit to specify whether buffered changes exist. This bitmap needs
to be updated on every operation, which could reduce performance.
Even if the change buffer were free of bugs such as MDEV-24449
(potentially causing the corruption of any page in the system tablespace)
or MDEV-26977 (corruption of secondary indexes due to a currently
unknown reason), it will make diagnosis of other data corruption harder.
Because of all this, it is best to disable the change buffer by default.
The problem was that "group_min_max optimization" does not work if
some aggregate functions, like COUNT(*), is used.
The function get_best_group_min_max() is using the join->sum_funcs
array to check which aggregate functions are used.
The bug was that aggregates in HAVING where not yet added to
join->sum_funcs at the time get_best_group_min_max() was called.
Fixed by populate join->sum_funcs already in prepare, which means that
all sum functions will be in join->sum_funcs in get_best_group_min_max().
A benefit of this approach is that we can remove several calls to
make_sum_func_list() from the code and simplify the function.
I removed some wrong setting of 'sort_and_group'.
This variable is set when alloc_group_fields() is called, as part
of allocating the cache needed by end_send_group() and does not need
to be set by other functions.
One problematic thing was that Spider is using *join->sum_funcs to detect
at which stage the optimizer is and do internal calculations of aggregate
functions. Updating join->sum_funcs early caused Spider to fail when trying
to find min/max values in opt_sum_query().
Fixed by temporarily resetting sum_funcs during opt_sum_query().

The problem was that get_best_group_min_max() did not check if fields used
by the "group_min_max optimization" where used in sub queries.
Because of this, it did not detect that a key (b,a) was used in the WHERE
clause for the statement:
SELECT DISTINCT b FROM t1 WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE a > 1 ).
Fixed by also traversing the sub queries when checking if a field is used.
This disables group_min_max_optimization for the above query.

MENT-328 wrongly assumed that the backup failed because of warnings from
mariabackup about not found files. This is normal (and the error message
should be deleted).
randgen failed because mariabackup didn't retry BACKUP STAGE BLOCK DDL
if it failed with a deadlock.
To simplify things, I implemented the retry loop in the server as
this particular deadlock should be quickly resolved.
When a server is compiled with -fPIE, my_addr_resolve needs to
subtract the info.dli_fbase from symbol addresses in memory for
addr2line to recognize them. When a server is compiled without -fPIE,
my_addr_resolve should not do it. Unfortunately not all compilers
define __PIE__ when -fPIE was used (e.g. older gcc doesn't), so we
have to resort to run-time detection.
If innodb_flush_method=O_DSYNC, log_sys.flushed_to_disk_lsn is changed
without 'flush_lock' protection inside log_write().
This leads to a race condition, if there are 2 threads running in parallel,
doing log_write_up_to() with different values for 'flush_to_disk'
In this case, log_write() and log_write_flush_to_disk_low() can execute at
the same time, and both would change flushed_lsn.
The fix is to remove special treatment of durable writes from log_write().
There is no apparent reason for this special treatment, log_write_flush_to_disk_low()
is already optimized for durable writes.
Nor there is an apparent reason to call log_flush_notify() more often in
for O_DSYNC.
buf_page_get_low(): If the page was read-fixed, validate the page ID
because the page could have been marked as corrupted. We should retry
the page read in this case, instead of returning a soon-to-be-evicted
corrupted page to the caller.
This was initially only observed on Microsoft Windows.
On Linux, this was repeated after adding a sleep
to buf_pool_t::corrupted_evict() between
bpage->zip.fix.fetch_sub() and bpage->lock.x_unlock().
In commit 9bc874a594 (MDEV-23497)
the configuration option innodb_read_only_compressed was introduced
to giver users advance notice of a plan to remove ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED
support for InnoDB.
Based on user feedback, this plan has been scrapped.
Even though ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED is a dead end and causes some
overhead for InnoDB data structures, we can live with that.
Now that we know that some users really want to keep using
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED, the previous default value of the parameter
innodb_read_only_compressed=ON should be changed to OFF, to allow
smooth upgrades to 10.6 and later versions, without requiring users
to update any configuration file.
The test could fail sporadically because of not anticipated
race on slave between CREATE and ALTER queries.
Fixed to synchronize slave and master wrt CREATE.
save_restore_context_apply_event(): Because compilers cannot infer
that ev->apply_event(rgi) will not affect ev->get_type_code(),
let us test that condition only once and allow the compiler to
emit a tail call.
Also, replace a goto with an early return for error handling.
