This task is to ensure we have a clear definition and rules of how to
repair or optimize a table.
The rules are:
- REPAIR should be used with tables that are crashed and are
unreadable (hardware issues with not readable blocks, blocks with
'unexpected data' etc)
- OPTIMIZE table should be used to optimize the storage layout for the
table (recover space for delete rows and optimize the index
structure.
- ALTER TABLE table_name FORCE should be used to rebuild the .frm file
(the table definition) and the table (with the original table row
format). If the table is from and older MariaDB/MySQL release with a
different storage format, it will convert the data to the new
format. ALTER TABLE ... FORCE is used as part of mariadb-upgrade
Here follows some more background:
The 3 ways to repair a table are:
1) ALTER TABLE table_name FORCE" (not other options).
As an alias we allow: "ALTER TABLE table_name ENGINE=original_engine"
2) "REPAIR TABLE" (without FORCE)
3) "OPTIMIZE TABLE"
All of the above commands will optimize row space usage (which means that
space will be needed to hold a temporary copy of the table) and
re-generate all indexes. They will also try to replicate the original
table definition as exact as possible.
For ALTER TABLE and "REPAIR TABLE without FORCE", the following will hold:
If the table is from an older MariaDB version and data conversion is
needed (for example for old type HASH columns, MySQL JSON type or new
TIMESTAMP format) "ALTER TABLE table_name FORCE, algorithm=COPY" will be
used.
The differences between the algorithms are
1) Will use the fastest algorithm the engine supports to do a full repair
of the table (except if data conversions are is needed).
2) Will use the storage engine internal REPAIR facility (MyISAM, Aria).
If the engine does not support REPAIR then
"ALTER TABLE FORCE, ALGORITHM=COPY" will be used.
If there was data incompatibilities (which means that FORCE was used)
then there will be a warning after REPAIR that ALTER TABLE FORCE is
still needed.
The reason for this is that REPAIR may be able to go around data
errors (wrong incompatible data, crashed or unreadable sectors) that
ALTER TABLE cannot do.
3) Will use the storage engine internal OPTIMIZE. If engine does not
support optimize, then "ALTER TABLE FORCE" is used.
The above will ensure that ALTER TABLE FORCE is able to
correct almost any errors in the row or index data. In case of
corrupted blocks then REPAIR possible followed by ALTER TABLE is needed.
This is important as mariadb-upgrade executes ALTER TABLE table_name
FORCE for any table that must be re-created.
Bugs fixed with InnoDB tables when using ALTER TABLE FORCE:
- No error for INNODB_DEFAULT_ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT even if row length
would be too wide. (Independent of innodb_strict_mode).
- Tables using symlinks will be symlinked after any of the above commands
(Independent of the setting of --symbolic-links)
If one specifies an algorithm together with ALTER TABLE FORCE, things
will work as before (except if data conversion is required as then
the COPY algorithm is enforced).
ALTER TABLE .. OPTIMIZE ALL PARTITIONS will work as before.
Other things:
- FORCE argument added to REPAIR to allow one to first run internal
repair to fix damaged blocks and then follow it with ALTER TABLE.
- REPAIR will not update frm_version if ha_check_for_upgrade() finds
that table is still incompatible with current version. In this case the
REPAIR will end with an error.
- REPAIR for storage engines that does not have native repair, like InnoDB,
is now using ALTER TABLE FORCE.
- REPAIR csv-table USE_FRM now works.
- It did not work before as CSV tables had extension list in wrong
order.
- Default error messages length for %M increased from 128 to 256 to not
cut information from REPAIR.
- Documented HA_ADMIN_XX variables related to repair.
- Added HA_ADMIN_NEEDS_DATA_CONVERSION to signal that we have to
do data conversions when converting the table (and thus ALTER TABLE
copy algorithm is needed).
- Fixed typo in error message (caused test changes).
Problem:
REPAIR TABLE executed for a pre-MDEV-29959 table (with the old UUID format)
updated the server version in the FRM file without rewriting the data,
so it created a new FRM for old UUIDs. After that MariaDB could not
read UUIDs correctly.
Fix:
- Adding a new virtual method in class Type_handler:
virtual bool type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade() const;
* For the up-to-date data types it returns "this".
* For the data types which need to be implicitly upgraded
during REPAIR TABLE or ALTER TABLE, it returns a pointer
to a new replacement data type handler.
Old VARCHAR and old UUID type handlers override this method.
See more comments below.
- Changing the semantics of the method
Type_handler::Column_definition_implicit_upgrade(Column_definition *c)
to the opposite, so now:
* c->type_handler() references the old data type (to upgrade from)
* "this" references the new data type (to upgrade to).
Before this change Column_definition_implicit_upgrade() was supposed
to be called with the old data type handler (to upgrade from).
Renaming the method to Column_definition_implicit_upgrade_to_this(),
to avoid automatic merges in this method.
Reflecting this change in Create_field::upgrade_data_types().
- Replacing the hard-coded data type tests inside handler::check_old_types()
to a call for the new virtual method
Type_handler::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
- Overriding Type_handler_fbt::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
to call a new method FbtImpl::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade().
Reasoning:
Type_handler_fbt is a template, so it has access only to "this".
So in case of UUID data types, the type handler for old UUID
knows nothing about the type handler of new UUID inside sql_type_fixedbin.h.
So let's have Type_handler_fbt delegate type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
to its Type_collection, which knows both new UUID and old UUID.
- Adding Type_collection_uuid::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade().
It returns a pointer to the new UUID type handler.
- Overriding Type_handler_var_string::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
to return a pointer to type_handler_varchar (true VARCHAR).
- Cleanup: these two methods:
handler::check_old_types()
handler::ha_check_for_upgrade()
were always called consequently.
So moving the call for check_old_types() inside ha_check_for_upgrade(),
and making check_old_types() private.
- Cleanup: removing the "bool varchar" parameter from fill_alter_inplace_info(),
as its not used any more.
Fixed typo in mysql_admin_table which cused call of
close_unused_temporary_table_instances alwas for the first table
instead of the current table.
Added ASSERT that close_unused_temporary_table_instances should not
remove all instances of user created temporary table.
The MDEV-29693 conflict resolution is from Monty, as well as is
a bug fix where ANALYZE TABLE wrongly built histograms for
single-column PRIMARY KEY.
Also includes a fix for safe_malloc error reporting.
Other things:
- Copied main.log_slow from 10.4 to avoid mtr issue
Disabled test:
- spider/bugfix.mdev_27239 because we started to get
+Error 1429 Unable to connect to foreign data source: localhost
-Error 1158 Got an error reading communication packets
- main.delayed
- Bug#54332 Deadlock with two connections doing LOCK TABLE+INSERT DELAYED
This part is disabled for now as it fails randomly with different
warnings/errors (no corruption).
Example of what causes the problem:
T1: ANALYZE TABLE starts to collect statistics
T2: ALTER TABLE starts by deleting statistics for all changed fields,
then creates a temp table and copies data to it.
T1: ANALYZE ends and writes to the statistics tables.
T2: ALTER TABLE renames temp table in place of the old table.
Now the statistics from analyze matches the old deleted tables.
Fixed by waiting to delete old statistics until ALTER TABLE is
the only one using the old table and ensure that rename of columns
can handle swapping of column names.
rename_columns_in_stat_table() (former rename_column_in_stat_tables())
now takes a list of columns to rename. It uses the following algorithm
to update column_stats to be able to handle circular renames
- While there are columns to be renamed and it is the first loop or
last rename loop did change something.
- Loop over all columns to be renamed
- Change column name in column_stat
- If fail because of duplicate key
- If this is first change attempt for this column
- Change column name to a temporary column name
- If there was a conflicting row, replace it with the current row.
else
- Remove entry from column list
- Loop over all remaining columns in the list
- Remove the conflicting row
- Change column from temporary name to final name in column_stat
Other things:
- Don't flush tables for every operation. Only flush when all updates
are done.
- Rename of columns was not handled in case of ALGORITHM=copy (old bug).
- Fixed that we do not collect statistics for hidden hash columns
used by UNIQUE constraint on long values.
- Fixed that we do not collect statistics for blob columns referred by
generated virtual columns. This was achieved by storing the fields for
which we want to have statistics in table->has_value_set instead of
in table->read_set.
- Rename of indexes was not handled for persistent statistics.
- This is now handled similar as rename of columns. Renamed columns
are now stored in 'rename_stat_indexes' and handled in
Alter_info::delete_statistics() together with drooped indexes.
- ALTER TABLE .. ADD INDEX may instead of creating a new index rename
an existing generated foreign key index. This was not reflected in
the index_stats table because this was handled in
mysql_prepare_create_table instead instead of in the mysql_alter() code.
Fixed by adding a call in mysql_prepare_create_table() to drop the
changed index.
I also had to change the code that 'marked the index' to be ignored
with code that would not destroy the original index name.

This commits enables reloading of engine-independent statistics
without flushing the table from table definition cache.
This is achieved by allowing multiple version of the
TABLE_STATISTICS_CB object and having independent pointers to it in
TABLE and TABLE_SHARE. The TABLE_STATISTICS_CB object have reference
pointers and are freed when no one is pointing to it anymore.
TABLE's TABLE_STATISTICS_CB pointer is updated to use the
TABLE_SHARE's pointer when read_statistics_for_tables() is called at
the beginning of a query.
Main changes:
- read_statistics_for_table() will allocate an new TABLE_STATISTICS_CB
object.
- All get_stat_values() functions has a new parameter that tells
where collected data should be stored. get_stat_values() are not
using the table_field object anymore to store data.
- All get_stat_values() functions returns 1 if they found any
data in the statistics tables.
Other things:
- Fixed INSERT DELAYED to not read statistics tables.
- Removed Statistics_state from TABLE_STATISTICS_CB as this is not
needed anymore as wer are not changing TABLE_SHARE->stats_cb while
calculating or loading statistics.
- Store values used with store_from_statistical_minmax_field() in
TABLE_STATISTICS_CB::mem_root. This allowed me to remove the function
delete_stat_values_for_table_share().
- Field_blob::store_from_statistical_minmax_field() is implemented
but is not normally used as we do not yet support EIS statistics
for blobs. For example Field_blob::update_min() and
Field_blob::update_max() are not implemented.
Note that the function can be called if there is an concurrent
"ALTER TABLE MODIFY field BLOB" running because of a bug in
ALTER TABLE where it deletes entries from column_stats
before it has an exclusive lock on the table.
- Use result of field->val_str(&val) as a pointer to the result
instead of val (safetly fix).
- Allocate memory for collected statistics in THD::mem_root, not in
in TABLE::mem_root. This could cause the TABLE object to grow if a
ANALYZE TABLE was run many times on the same table.
This was done in allocate_statistics_for_table(),
create_min_max_statistical_fields_for_table() and
create_min_max_statistical_fields_for_table_share().
- Store in TABLE_STATISTICS_CB::stats_available which statistics was
found in the statistics tables.
- Removed index_table from class Index_prefix_calc as it was not used.
- Added TABLE_SHARE::LOCK_statistics to ensure we don't load EITS
in parallel. First thread will load it, others will reuse the
loaded data.
- Eliminate read_histograms_for_table(). The loading happens within
read_statistics_for_tables() if histograms are needed.
One downside is that if we have read statistics without histograms
before and someone requires histograms, we have to read all statistics
again (once) from the statistics tables.
A smaller downside is the need to call alloc_root() for each
individual histogram. Before we could allocate all the space for
histograms with a single alloc_root.
- Fixed bug in MyISAM and Aria where they did not properly notice
that table had changed after analyze table. This was not a problem
before this patch as then the MyISAM and Aria tables where flushed
as part of ANALYZE table which did hide this issue.
- Fixed a bug in ANALYZE table where table->records could be seen as 0
in collect_statistics_for_table(). The effect of this unlikely bug
was that a full table scan could be done even if
analyze_sample_percentage was not set to 1.
- Changed multiple mallocs in a row to use multi_alloc_root().
- Added a mutex protection in update_statistics_for_table() to ensure
that several tables are not updating the statistics at the same time.
Some of the changes in sql_statistics.cc are based on a patch from

ANALYZE was observed to race over a preceding in binlog order DML
in updating the binlog and slave gtid states.
Tagging ANALYZE and other admin class commands in binlog by the fixes
of MDEV-17515 left a flaw allowing such race leading to
the gtid mode out-of-order error.
This is fixed now to observe by ADMIN commands the ordered access to
the slave gtid status variables and binlog.
- Fix bad tests in statistics_json test: make them meaningful and make them
work on windows
- Fix analyze_debug.test: correctly handle errors during ANALYZE
Remove calls to wsrep_append_fk_parent_table() during REPAIR/OPTIMIZE
TABLE processing. It turns out that REPAIR or OPTIMIZE commands on
table t, do not acquire MDL locks on parent tables of t (as shown in
the included test). Thus making wsrep_append_fk_parent_table()
unnecessary for OPTIMIZE and REPAIR.
This also fixes MDEV-24446 and reenables test galera.mysql-wsrep#198.

Dead code cleanup:
part_info->num_parts usage was wrong and working incorrectly in
mysql_drop_partitions() because num_parts is already updated in
prep_alter_part_table(). We don't have to update part_info->partitions
because part_info is destroyed at alter_partition_lock_handling().
Cleanups:
- DBUG_EVALUATE_IF() macro replaced by shorter form DBUG_IF();
- Typo in ER_KEY_COLUMN_DOES_NOT_EXITS.
Refactorings:
- Splitted write_log_replace_delete_frm() into write_log_delete_frm()
and write_log_replace_frm();
- partition_info via DDL_LOG_STATE;
- set_part_info_exec_log_entry() removed.
DBUG_EVALUATE removed
DBUG_EVALUTATE was only added for consistency together with
DBUG_EVALUATE_IF. It is not used anywhere in the code.
DBUG_SUICIDE() fix on release build
On release DBUG_SUICIDE() was statement. It was wrong as
DBUG_SUICIDE() is used in expression context.
Problem was that there was extra condition !thd->lex->no_write_to_binlog
before call to begin TOI. It seems that this variable is not initialized.
TRUNCATE does not support [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] keywords, thus
we should not check this condition. All this was hidden in a macro,
so I decided to remove those macros that were used only a few places
with actual function calls.
The problem is the same as in MDEV-18166: columns in virtual field
expression are not marked for read, while the field itself does.
field->register_field_in_read_map() should be called for read-marking all
fields.
The test is reproduced only in 10.4+, however the fix is applicable to
10.2+.
Withing this task the following changes were made:
- Added sending of metadata info in prepare phase for the admin related
command (check table, checksum table, repair, optimize, analyze).
- Refactored implmentation of HELP command to support its execution in
PS mode
- Added support for execution of LOAD INTO and XA- related statements
in PS mode
- Modified mysqltest.cc to run statements in PS mode unconditionally
in case the option --ps-protocol is set. Formerly, only those statements
were executed using PS protocol that matched the hard-coded regular expression
- Fixed the following issues:
The statement
explain select (select 2)
executed in regular and PS mode produces different results:
MariaDB [test]> prepare stmt from "explain select (select 2)";
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0,000 sec)
Statement prepared

In case the statement
CREATE TABLE t1 SELECT * FROM (SELECT 1 AS a, (SELECT a+0)) a
is run in PS mode it fails with the error
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'a' in 'field list'.
- Uniform handling of read-only variables both in case the SET var=val
statement is executed as regular or prepared statememt.
- Fixed assertion firing on handling LOAD DATA statement for temporary tables
- Relaxed assert condition in the function lex_end_stage1() by adding
the commands SQLCOM_ALTER_EVENT, SQLCOM_CREATE_PACKAGE,
SQLCOM_CREATE_PACKAGE_BODY to a list of supported command
- Removed raising of the error ER_UNSUPPORTED_PS in the function
check_prepared_statement() for the ALTER VIEW command
- Added initialization of the data memember st_select_lex_unit::last_procedure
(assign NULL value) in the constructor
Without this change the test case main.ctype_utf8 fails with the following
report in case it is run with the optoin --ps-protocol.
mysqltest: At line 2278: query 'VALUES (_latin1 0xDF) UNION VALUES(_utf8'a' COLLATE utf8_bin)' failed: 2013: Lost connection
- The following bug reports were fixed:
MDEV-24460: Multiple rows result set returned from stored
routine over prepared statement binary protocol is
handled incorrectly
CONC-519: mariadb client library doesn't handle server_status and
warnign_count fields received in the packet
COM_STMT_EXECUTE_RESPONSE.
Reasons for these bug reports have the same nature and caused by
missing loop iteration on results sent by server in response to
COM_STMT_EXECUTE packet.
Enclosing of statements for processing of COM_STMT_EXECUTE response
in the construct like
do
{
...
} while (!mysql_stmt_next_result());
fixes the above mentioned bug reports.
