timeout
In STMT and MIXED modes, a statement that changes both non-transactional and
transactional tables must be written to the binary log whenever there are
changes to non-transactional tables. This means that the statement gets into the
binary log even when the changes to the transactional tables fail. In particular
, in the presence of a failure such statement is annotated with the error number
and wrapped in a begin/rollback. On the slave, while applying the statement, it
is expected the same failure and the rollback prevents the transactional changes
to be persisted.
Unfortunately, statements that fail due to concurrency issues (e.g. deadlocks,
timeouts) are logged in the same way causing the slave to stop as the statements
are applied sequentially by the SQL Thread. To fix this bug, we automatically
ignore concurrency failures on the slave. Specifically, the following failures
are ignored: ER_LOCK_WAIT_TIMEOUT, ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK and ER_XA_RBDEADLOCK.
The reason for the crash was rotate_relay_log (mi=0x0) did not verify
the passed value of active_mi. There are more cases where active_mi
is supposed to be non-zero e.g change_master(), stop_slave(), and it's
reasonable to protect from a similar crash all of them with common
fixes.
Fixed with spliting end_slave() in slave threads release and slave
data clean-up parts (a new close_active_mi()). The new function is
invoked at the very end of close_connections() so that all users of
active_mi are proven to have left.
Several system variables did not behave like system variables should do.
When trying to SET them or use them in SELECT, they were reported as
"unknown system variable". But they appeared in SHOW VARIABLES.
This has been fixed by removing the "fixed_vars" array of variables
and integrating the variables into the normal system variables chain.
All of these variables do now behave as read-only global-only
variables. Trying to SET them tells they are read-only, trying to
SELECT the session value tells they are global only. Selecting the
global value works. It delivers the same value as SHOW VARIABLES.
In order to handle CHAR() fields, 8 bits were reserved for
the size of the CHAR field. However, instead of denoting the
number of characters in the field, field_length was used which
denotes the number of bytes in the field.
Since UTF-8 fields can have three bytes per character (and
has been extended to have four bytes per character in 6.0),
an extra two bits have been encoded in the field metadata
work for fields of type Field_string (i.e., CHAR fields).
Since the metadata word is filled, the extra bits have been
encoded in the upper 4 bits of the real type (the most
significant byte of the metadata word) by computing the
bitwise xor of the extra two bits. Since the upper 4 bits
of the real type always is 1111 for Field_string, this
means that for fields of length <256, the encoding is
identical to the encoding used in pre-5.1.26 servers, but
for lengths of 256 or more, an unrecognized type is formed,
causing an old slave (that does not handle lengths of 256
or more) to stop.
using a trig in SP
For all 5.0 and up to 5.1.12 exclusive, when a stored routine or
trigger caused an INSERT into an AUTO_INCREMENT column, the
generated AUTO_INCREMENT value should not be written into the
binary log, which means if a statement does not generate
AUTO_INCREMENT value itself, there will be no Intvar event (SET
INSERT_ID) associated with it even if one of the stored routine
or trigger caused generation of such a value. And meanwhile, when
executing a stored routine or trigger, it would ignore the
INSERT_ID value even if there is a INSERT_ID value available set
by a SET INSERT_ID statement.
Starting from MySQL 5.1.12, the generated AUTO_INCREMENT value is
written into the binary log, and the value will be used if
available when executing the stored routine or trigger.
Prior fix of this bug in MySQL 5.0 and prior MySQL 5.1.12
(referenced as the buggy versions in the text below), when a
statement that generates AUTO_INCREMENT value by the top
statement was executed in the body of a SP, all statements in the
SP after this statement would be treated as if they had generated
AUTO_INCREMENT by the top statement. When a statement that did
not generate AUTO_INCREMENT value by the top statement but by a
function/trigger called by it, an erroneous Intvar event would be
associated with the statement, this erroneous INSERT_ID value
wouldn't cause problem when replicating between masters and
slaves of 5.0.x or prior 5.1.12, because the erroneous INSERT_ID
value was not used when executing functions/triggers. But when
replicating from buggy versions to 5.1.12 or newer, which will
use the INSERT_ID value in functions/triggers, the erroneous
value will be used, which would cause duplicate entry error and
cause the slave to stop.
The patch for 5.1 fixed it to ignore the SET INSERT_ID value when
executing functions/triggers if it is replicating from a master
of buggy versions, another patch for 5.0 fixed it not to generate
the erroneous Intvar event.
to leave
The artifact was caused by
a flaw in concurrent accessing the slave's io thd by
the io itself and a handling show slave status thread.
Namely, show_master_info did not acquire mi->run_lock mutex that is
specified for mi->io_thd member.
Fixed with deploying the mutex locking and unlocking. The mutex is kept
short time and without interleaving with mi->data_lock mutex.
Todo: to report and fix an issue with
sys_var_slave_skip_counter::{methods}
seem to acquire incorrectly
active_mi->rli.run_lock
instead of the specified
active_mi->rli.data_lock
A test case is difficult to compose, so rpl_packet should continue serving
as the indicator.
Problem: it is unsafe to read base64-printed events without first
reading the Format_description_log_event (FD). Currently, mysqlbinlog
cannot print the FD.
As a side effect, another bug has also been fixed: When mysqlbinlog
--start-position=X was specified, no ROLLBACK was printed. I changed
this, so that ROLLBACK is always printed.
This patch does several things:
- Format_description_log_event (FD) now print themselves in base64
format.
- mysqlbinlog is now able to print FD events. It has three modes:
--base64-output=auto Print row events in base64 output, and print
FD event. The FD event is printed even if
it is outside the range specified with
--start-position, because it would not be
safe to read row events otherwise. This is
the default.
--base64-output=always Like --base64-output=auto, but also print
base64 output for query events. This is
like the old --base64-output flag, which
is also a shorthand for
--base64-output=always
--base64-output=never Never print base64 output, generate error if
row events occur in binlog. This is
useful to suppress the FD event in binlogs
known not to contain row events (e.g.,
because BINLOG statement is unsafe,
requires root privileges, is not SQL, etc)
- the BINLOG statement now handles FD events correctly, by setting
the thread's rli's relay log's description_event_for_exec to the
loaded event.
In fact, executing a BINLOG statement is almost the same as reading
an event from a relay log. Before my patch, the code for this was
separated (exec_relay_log_event in slave.cc executes events from
the relay log, mysql_client_binlog_statement in sql_binlog.cc
executes BINLOG statements). I needed to augment
mysql_client_binlog_statement to do parts of what
exec_relay_log_event does. Hence, I did a small refactoring and
moved parts of exec_relay_log_event to a new function, which I
named apply_event_and_update_pos. apply_event_and_update_pos is
called both from exec_relay_log_event and from
mysql_client_binlog_statement.
- When a non-FD event is executed in a BINLOG statement, without
previously executing a FD event in a BINLOG statement, it generates
an error, because that's unsafe. I took a new error code for that:
ER_NO_FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT_BEFORE_BINLOG_STATEMENTS.
In order to get a decent error message containing the name of the
event, I added the class method char*
Log_event::get_type_str(Log_event_type type), which returns a
string name for the given Log_event_type. This is just like the
existing char* Log_event::get_type_str(), except it is a class
method that takes the log event type as parameter.
I also added PRE_GA_*_ROWS_LOG_EVENT to Log_event::get_type_str(),
so that names of old rows event are properly printed.
- When reading an event, I added a check that the event type is known
by the current Format_description_log_event. Without this, it may
crash on bad input (and I was struck by this several times).
- I patched the following test cases, which all contain BINLOG
statements for row events which must be preceded by BINLOG
statements for FD events:
- rpl_bug31076
While I was here, I fixed some small things in log_event.cc:
- replaced hard-coded 4 by EVENT_TYPE_OFFSET in 3 places
- replaced return by DBUG_VOID_RETURN in one place
- The name of the logfile can be '-' to indicate stdin. Before my
patch, the code just checked if the first character is '-'; now it
does a full strcmp(). Probably, all arguments that begin with a -
are already handled somewhere else as flags, but I still think it
is better that the code reflects what it is supposed to do, with as
little dependencies as possible on other parts of the code. If we
one day implement that all command line arguments after -- are
files (as most unix tools do), then we need this.
I also fixed the following in slave.cc:
- next_event() was declared twice, and queue_event was not static but
should be static (not used outside the file).
Removing unguarded read of slave_running field from inside
terminate_slave_threads(). This could cause premature exit in the event
that the slave thread already were shutting down, but isn't finished yet.
The fields slave_running, io_thd, and sql_thread are guarded by an
associated run_lock. A read of these fields were not guarded inside
terminate_slave_threads(), which caused an assertion to fire. The
assertion was removed, and the code reorganized slightly.
Adding new fields Last_{IO,SQL}_Errno and Last_{IO,SQL}_Error to output
of SHOW SLAVE STATUS to hold errors from I/O and SQL thread respectively.
Old fields Last_Error and Last_Errno are aliases for Last_SQL_Error and
Last_SQL_Errno respectively.
Fields are added last to output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS to allow old applications
to use the same positional arguments into the row, while allowing new
application to benefit from the added information.
In addition, some new error codes are added (especially for the I/O
thread) to be able to provide sensible error message.
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
skipped):
By moving statement end actions from Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() to
Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() they will always be executed, even if
Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() is skipped because the event originated
at the same server. This because Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() is always
executed (unless Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() failed with an error,
in which case the slave stops with an error anyway).
Adding test case.
Fixing logic to detect if inside a group. If a rotate event occured
when an initial prefix of events for a statement, but for which the
table did contain a key, last_event_start_time is set to zero, causing
rotate to end the group but without unlocking any tables. This left a
lock hanging around, which subsequently triggered an assertion when a
second attempt was made to lock the same sequence of tables.
In order to solve the above problem, a new flag was added to the relay
log info structure that is used to indicate that the replication thread
is currently executing a statement. Using this flag, the replication
thread is in a group if it is either in a statement or inside a trans-
action.
The patch also eliminates some gratuitous header file inclusions that
were not needed (and caused compile errors) and replaced them with
forward definitions.
"INSERT... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE skips auto_increment values".
When in an INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE, using
an autoincrement column, we inserted some autogenerated values and
also updated some rows, some autogenerated values were not used
(for example, even if 10 was the largest autoinc value in the table
at the start of the statement, 12 could be the first autogenerated
value inserted by the statement, instead of 11). One autogenerated
value was lost per updated row. Led to exhausting the range of the
autoincrement column faster.
Bug introduced by fix of BUG#20188; present since 5.0.24 and 5.1.12.
This bug breaks replication from a pre-5.0.24 master.
But the present bugfix, as it makes INSERT ON DUP KEY UPDATE
behave like pre-5.0.24, breaks replication from a [5.0.24,5.0.34]
master to a fixed (5.0.36) slave! To warn users against this when
they upgrade their slave, as agreed with the support team, we add
code for a fixed slave to detect that it is connected to a buggy
master in a situation (INSERT ON DUP KEY UPDATE into autoinc column)
likely to break replication, in which case it cannot replicate so
stops and prints a message to the slave's error log and to SHOW SLAVE
STATUS.
For 5.0.36->[5.0.24,5.0.34] replication we cannot warn as master
does not know the slave's version (but we always recommended to users
to have slave at least as new as master).
As agreed with support, I'll also ask for an alert to be put into
the MySQL Network Monitoring and Advisory Service.
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
Since checking table compatibility before locking the table, there were
potential that a table could be locked that did not have a definition
that was compatible with the table on the slave.
This patch adds a check just after the table was locked to ensure that
the table is (still) compatible with the table on the slave.
Second patch to fix skipping code. Moving relay and binary log
position changing code from do_apply_event [old exec_event()] into
do_update_pos() and doing other changes necessary to support that.
Fixing a bug that can cause deadlock if rotating binary log when committing
a changes to a transactional table that is not inside a transaction and
cause a rotate log.
Fix when __attribute__() is stubbed out, add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT() for specifying
__attribute__((format(...))) safely, make more use of the format attribute,
and fix some of the warnings that this turns up (plus a bonus unrelated one).
No test case as the bug is in an existing test case (rpl_trigger.test
when it is run under valgrind).
The warning was caused by memory corruption in replication slave: thd->db
was pointing at a stack address that was previously used by
sp_head::execute()::old_db. This happened because mysql_change_db
behaved differently in replication slave and did not make a copy of the
argument to assign to thd->db.
The solution is to always free the old value of thd->db and allocate a new
copy, regardless whether we're running in a replication slave or not.
Bug#19022 "Memory bug when switching db during trigger execution"
Bug#17199 "Problem when view calls function from another database."
Bug#18444 "Fully qualified stored function names don't work correctly in
SELECT statements"
Documentation note: this patch introduces a change in behaviour of prepared
statements.
This patch adds a few new invariants with regard to how THD::db should
be used. These invariants should be preserved in future:
- one should never refer to THD::db by pointer and always make a deep copy
(strmake, strdup)
- one should never compare two databases by pointer, but use strncmp or
my_strncasecmp
- TABLE_LIST object table->db should be always initialized in the parser or
by creator of the object.
For prepared statements it means that if the current database is changed
after a statement is prepared, the database that was current at prepare
remains active. This also means that you can not prepare a statement that
implicitly refers to the current database if the latter is not set.
This is not documented, and therefore needs documentation. This is NOT a
change in behavior for almost all SQL statements except:
- ALTER TABLE t1 RENAME t2
- OPTIMIZE TABLE t1
- ANALYZE TABLE t1
- TRUNCATE TABLE t1 --
until this patch t1 or t2 could be evaluated at the first execution of
prepared statement.
CURRENT_DATABASE() still works OK and is evaluated at every execution
of prepared statement.
Note, that in stored routines this is not an issue as the default
database is the database of the stored procedure and "use" statement
is prohibited in stored routines.
This patch makes obsolete the use of check_db_used (it was never used in the
old code too) and all other places that check for table->db and assign it
from THD::db if it's NULL, except the parser.
How this patch was created: THD::{db,db_length} were replaced with a
LEX_STRING, THD::db. All the places that refer to THD::{db,db_length} were
manually checked and:
- if the place uses thd->db by pointer, it was fixed to make a deep copy
- if a place compared two db pointers, it was fixed to compare them by value
(via strcmp/my_strcasecmp, whatever was approproate)
Then this intermediate patch was used to write a smaller patch that does the
same thing but without a rename.
TODO in 5.1:
- remove check_db_used
- deploy THD::set_db in mysql_change_db
See also comments to individual files.
in short we now record whenever the slave I/O thread ignores a master's event because of its server id,
and use this info in the slave SQL thread to advance Exec_master_log_pos. Because if we
do not, this variable stays at the position of the last executed event, i.e. the last *non-ignored*
executed one, which may not be the last of the master's binlog (and so the slave *looks* behind
the master though it's data-wise it's not).
