On some libc (like musl[1]), posix_fallocate() is a fallocate() syscall
wrapper, and does not include fallback code like glibc does. In that
case, EOPNOTSUPP is returned if underlying filesystem does not
support fallocate() with mode = 0.
This patch enables falling back to writing zeros when EOPNOTSUPP, fixes
some cases like running on filesystem without proper fallocate support
on Alpine.

srv_slot_t::suspend_time, os_aio_slot_t::reservation_time,
sync_cell_t::reservation_time: Explain what could happen
if the system time has is being adjusted.
fts_sync_t::start_time: Document that the field is mostly unused.
Replace ut_usectime() with my_interval_timer(),
which is equivalent, but monotonically counting nanoseconds
instead of counting the microseconds of real time.
os_event_wait_time_low(): Use my_hrtime() instead of ut_usectime().
FIXME: Set a clock attribute on the condition variable that allows
a monotonic clock to be chosen as the time base, so that the wait
is immune to adjustments of the system clock.
Disks with native 4K sectors need 4K alignment and size for unbuffered IO
(i.e for files opened with FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING)
Innodb opens redo log with FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING, however it always does
512byte IOs. Thus, the IO on 4K native sectors will fail, rendering
Innodb non-functional.
The fix is to check whether OS_FILE_LOG_BLOCK_SIZE is multiple of logical
sector size, and if it is not, reopen the redo log without
FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING flag.
When attempting to rename a table to a non-existing database,
InnoDB would misleadingly report "OS error 71" when in fact the
error code is InnoDB's own (OS_FILE_NOT_FOUND), and not report
both pathnames. Errors on rename could occur due to reasons
connected to either pathname.
os_file_handle_rename_error(): New function, to report errors in
renaming files.
InnoDB insisted on closing the file handle before renaming a file.
Renaming a file should never be a problem on POSIX systems. Also on
Windows it should work if the file was opened in FILE_SHARE_DELETE
mode.
fil_space_t::stop_ios: Remove. We no longer need to stop file access
during rename operations.
fil_mutex_enter_and_prepare_for_io(): Remove the wait for stop_ios.
fil_rename_tablespace(): Remove the retry logic; do not close the
file handle. Remove the unused fault injection that was added along
with the DATA DIRECTORY functionality (MySQL WL#5980).
os_file_create_simple_func(), os_file_create_func(),
os_file_create_simple_no_error_handling_func(): Include FILE_SHARE_DELETE
in the share_mode. (We will still prevent multiple InnoDB instances
from using the same files by not setting FILE_SHARE_WRITE.)
fil_iterate(), fil_tablespace_iterate(): Replace os_file_read()
with os_file_read_no_error_handling().
os_file_read_func(), os_file_read_no_error_handling_func():
Do not retry partial reads. There used to be an infinite amount
of retries. Because InnoDB extends both data and log files upfront,
partial reads should be impossible during normal operation.
On some old GNU/Linux systems, invoking posix_fallocate() with
offset=0 would sometimes cause already allocated bytes in the
data file to be overwritten.
Fix a correctness regression that was introduced in
commit 420798a81a
by invoking posix_fallocate() in a safer way.
A similar change was made in MDEV-5746 earlier.
os_file_get_size(): Avoid changing the state of the file handle,
by invoking fstat() instead of lseek().
os_file_set_size(): Determine the current size of the file
by os_file_get_size(), and then extend the file from that point
onwards.
os_file_set_size(): If posix_fallocate() returns EINVAL, fall back
to writing zero bytes to the file. Also, remove some error log output,
and make it possible for a server shutdown to interrupt the fall-back
code.
MariaDB used to ignore any possible return value from posix_fallocate()
ever since innodb_use_fallocate was introduced in MDEV-4338. If EINVAL
was returned, the file would not be extended.
Starting with MDEV-11520, MariaDB would treat EINVAL as a hard error.
Why is the EINVAL returned? The GNU posix_fallocate() function
would first try the fallocate() system call, which would return
-EOPNOTSUPP for many file systems (notably, not ext4). Then, it
would fall back to extending the file one block at a time by invoking
pwrite(fd, "", 1, offset) where offset is 1 less than a multiple of
the file block size. This would fail with EINVAL if the file is in
O_DIRECT mode, because O_DIRECT requires aligned operation.
Some innobase/xtrabackup changes around from 10.1 are null merged
, in partucular using os_set_file_size to extend tablespaces in server
or mariabackup.
They require non-trivial amount of additional work in 10.2, due to
innobase differences between 10.1 and 10.2
This should also fix the MariaDB 10.2.2 bug
MDEV-13826 CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX on encrypted table fails.
MDEV-12634 FIXME: Modify innodb-index-online, innodb-table-online
so that they will write and read merge sort files. InnoDB 5.7
introduced some optimizations to avoid using the files for small tables.
Many collation test results have been adjusted for MDEV-10191.
