6bf6272fda Patch that refactors global read lock implementation and fixes
bug #57006 "Deadlock between HANDLER and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK" and bug #54673 "It takes too long to get readlock for
'FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK'".

The first bug manifested itself as a deadlock which occurred
when a connection, which had some table open through HANDLER
statement, tried to update some data through DML statement
while another connection tried to execute FLUSH TABLES WITH
READ LOCK concurrently.

What happened was that FTWRL in the second connection managed
to perform first step of GRL acquisition and thus blocked all
upcoming DML. After that it started to wait for table open
through HANDLER statement to be flushed. When the first connection
tried to execute DML it has started to wait for GRL/the second
connection creating deadlock.

The second bug manifested itself as starvation of FLUSH TABLES
WITH READ LOCK statements in cases when there was a constant
stream of concurrent DML statements (in two or more
connections).

This has happened because requests for protection against GRL
which were acquired by DML statements were ignoring presence of
pending GRL and thus the latter was starved.

This patch solves both these problems by re-implementing GRL
using metadata locks.

Similar to the old implementation acquisition of GRL in new
implementation is two-step. During the first step we block
all concurrent DML and DDL statements by acquiring global S
metadata lock (each DML and DDL statement acquires global IX
lock for its duration). During the second step we block commits
by acquiring global S lock in COMMIT namespace (commit code
acquires global IX lock in this namespace).

Note that unlike in old implementation acquisition of
protection against GRL in DML and DDL is semi-automatic.
We assume that any statement which should be blocked by GRL
will either open and acquires write-lock on tables or acquires
metadata locks on objects it is going to modify. For any such
statement global IX metadata lock is automatically acquired
for its duration.

The first problem is solved because waits for GRL become
visible to deadlock detector in metadata locking subsystem
and thus deadlocks like one in the first bug become impossible.

The second problem is solved because global S locks which
are used for GRL implementation are given preference over
IX locks which are acquired by concurrent DML (and we can
switch to fair scheduling in future if needed).

Important change:
FTWRL/GRL no longer blocks DML and DDL on temporary tables.
Before this patch behavior was not consistent in this respect:
in some cases DML/DDL statements on temporary tables were
blocked while in others they were not. Since the main use cases
for FTWRL are various forms of backups and temporary tables are
not preserved during backups we have opted for consistently
allowing DML/DDL on temporary tables during FTWRL/GRL.

Important change:
This patch changes thread state names which are used when
DML/DDL of FTWRL is waiting for global read lock. It is now
either "Waiting for global read lock" or "Waiting for commit
lock" depending on the stage on which FTWRL is.

Incompatible change:
To solve deadlock in events code which was exposed by this
patch we have to replace LOCK_event_metadata mutex with
metadata locks on events. As result we have to prohibit
DDL on events under LOCK TABLES.

This patch also adds extensive test coverage for interaction
of DML/DDL and FTWRL.

Performance of new and old global read lock implementations
in sysbench tests were compared. There were no significant
difference between new and old implementations.

mysql-test/t/flush_read_lock_kill-master.opt:

mysql-test/t/trigger_notembedded.test:
  Adjusted test case after changing thread state names which
  are used when DML or DDL waits for FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
  LOCK to "Waiting for global read lock".
sql/event_data_objects.cc:
  Removed Event_queue_element::status/last_executed_changed
  members and Event_queue_element::update_timing_fields()
  method. We no longer use this class for updating mysql.events
  once event is chosen for execution. Accesses to instances of
  this class in scheduler thread require protection by
  Event_queue::LOCK_event_queue mutex and we try to avoid
  updating table while holding this lock.
sql/event_data_objects.h:
  Removed Event_queue_element::status/last_executed_changed
  members and Event_queue_element::update_timing_fields()
  method. We no longer use this class for updating mysql.events
  once event is chosen for execution. Accesses to instances of
  this class in scheduler thread require protection by
  Event_queue::LOCK_event_queue mutex and we try to avoid
  updating table while holding this lock.
sql/event_db_repository.cc:
  - Changed Event_db_repository methods to not release all
    metadata locks once they are done updating mysql.events
    table. This allows to keep metadata lock protecting
    against GRL and lock protecting particular event around
    until corresponding DDL statement is written to the binary
    log.
  - Removed logic for conditional update of "status" and
    "last_executed" fields from update_timing_fields_for_event()
    method. In the only case when this method is called now
    "last_executed" is always modified and tracking change
    of "status" is too much hassle.
sql/event_db_repository.h:
  Removed logic for conditional update of "status" and
  "last_executed" fields from Event_db_repository::
  update_timing_fields_for_event() method.
  In the only case when this method is called now "last_executed"
  is always modified and tracking change of "status" field is
  too much hassle.
sql/event_queue.cc:
  Changed event scheduler code not to update mysql.events
  table while holding Event_queue::LOCK_event_queue mutex.
  Doing so led to a deadlock with a new GRL implementation.
  This deadlock didn't occur with old implementation due to
  fact that code acquiring protection against GRL ignored
  pending GRL requests (which lead to GRL starvation).
  One of goals of new implementation is to disallow GRL
  starvation and so we have to solve problem with this
  deadlock in a different way.
sql/events.cc:
  Changed methods of Events class to acquire protection
  against GRL while perfoming DDL statement and keep it
  until statement is written to the binary log.
  Unfortunately this step together with new GRL implementation
  exposed deadlock involving Events::LOCK_event_metadata
  and GRL. To solve it Events::LOCK_event_metadata mutex was
  replaced with a metadata lock on event. As a side-effect
  events DDL has to be prohibited under LOCK TABLES even in
  cases when mysql.events table was explicitly locked for
  write.
sql/events.h:
  Replaced Events::LOCK_event_metadata mutex with a metadata
  lock on event.
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc:
  Updated code after replacing custom global read lock
  implementation with one based on MDL. Since MDL subsystem
  should now be able to detect deadlocks involving metadata
  locks and GRL there is no need for special handling of
  active GRL.
sql/handler.cc:
  Replaced custom implementation of global read lock with
  one based on metadata locks. Consequently when doing
  commit instead of calling method of Global_read_lock
  class to acquire protection against GRL we simply acquire
  IX in COMMIT namespace.
sql/lock.cc:
  Replaced custom implementation of global read lock with
  one based on metadata locks. This step allows to expose
  wait for GRL to deadlock detector of MDL subsystem and
  thus succesfully resolve deadlocks similar to one behind
  bug #57006 "Deadlock between HANDLER and FLUSH TABLES
  WITH READ LOCK". It also solves problem with GRL starvation
  described in bug #54673 "It takes too long to get readlock
  for 'FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK'" since metadata locks used
  by GRL give preference to FTWRL statement instead of DML
  statements (if needed in future this can be changed to
  fair scheduling).
  
  Similar to old implementation of acquisition of GRL is
  two-step. During the first step we block all concurrent
  DML and DDL statements by acquiring global S metadata lock
  (each DML and DDL statement acquires global IX lock for
  its duration). During the second step we block commits by
  acquiring global S lock in COMMIT namespace (commit code
  acquires global IX lock in this namespace).
  
  Note that unlike in old implementation acquisition of
  protection against GRL in DML and DDL is semi-automatic.
  We assume that any statement which should be blocked by GRL
  will either open and acquires write-lock on tables or acquires
  metadata locks on objects it is going to modify. For any such
  statement global IX metadata lock is automatically acquired
  for its duration.
  
  To support this change:
  - Global_read_lock::lock/unlock_global_read_lock and
    make_global_read_lock_block_commit methods were changed
    accordingly.
  - Global_read_lock::wait_if_global_read_lock() and
    start_waiting_global_read_lock() methods were dropped.
    It is now responsibility of code acquiring metadata locks
    opening tables to acquire protection against GRL by
    explicitly taking global IX lock with statement duration.
  - Global variables, mutex and condition variable used by
    old implementation was removed.
  - lock_routine_name() was changed to use statement duration for
    its global IX lock. It was also renamed to lock_object_name()
    as it now also used to take metadata locks on events.
  - Global_read_lock::set_explicit_lock_duration() was added which
    allows not to release locks used for GRL when leaving prelocked
    mode.
sql/lock.h:
  - Renamed lock_routine_name() to lock_object_name() and changed
    its signature to allow its usage for events.
  - Removed broadcast_refresh() function. It is no longer needed
    with new GRL implementation.
sql/log_event.cc:
  Release metadata locks with statement duration at the end
  of processing legacy event for LOAD DATA. This ensures that
  replication thread processing such event properly releases
  its protection against global read lock.
sql/mdl.cc:
  Changed MDL subsystem to support new MDL-based implementation
  of global read lock.
  
  Added COMMIT and EVENTS namespaces for metadata locks. Changed
  thread state name for GLOBAL namespace to "Waiting for global
  read lock".
  
  Optimized MDL_map::find_or_insert() method to avoid taking
  m_mutex mutex when looking up MDL_lock objects for GLOBAL
  or COMMIT namespaces. We keep pre-created MDL_lock objects
  for these namespaces around and simply return pointers to
  these global objects when needed.
  
  Changed MDL_lock/MDL_scoped_lock to properly handle
  notification of insert delayed handler threads when FTWRL
  takes global S lock.
  
  Introduced concept of lock duration. In addition to locks with
  transaction duration which work in the way which is similar to
  how locks worked before (i.e. they are released at the end of
  transaction), locks with statement and explicit duration were
  introduced.
  Locks with statement duration are automatically released at the
  end of statement. Locks with explicit duration require explicit
  release and obsolete concept of transactional sentinel.
  
  * Changed MDL_request and MDL_ticket classes to support notion
    of duration.
  * Changed MDL_context to keep locks with different duration in
    different lists. Changed code handling ticket list to take
    this into account.
  * Changed methods responsible for releasing locks to take into
    account duration of tickets. Particularly public
    MDL_context::release_lock() method now only can release
    tickets with explicit duration (there is still internal
    method which allows to specify duration). To release locks
    with statement or transaction duration one have to use
    release_statement/transactional_locks() methods.
  * Concept of savepoint for MDL subsystem now has to take into
    account locks with statement duration. Consequently
    MDL_savepoint class was introduced and methods working with
    savepoints were updated accordingly.
  * Added methods which allow to set duration for one or all
    locks in the context.
sql/mdl.h:
  Changed MDL subsystem to support new MDL-based implementation
  of global read lock.
  
  Added COMMIT and EVENTS namespaces for metadata locks.
  
  Introduced concept of lock duration. In addition to locks with
  transaction duration which work in the way which is similar to

  Locks with statement duration are automatically released at the
  end of statement. Locks with explicit duration require explicit
  release and obsolete concept of transactional sentinel.
  
  * Changed MDL_request and MDL_ticket classes to support notion

    this into account.
  * Changed methods responsible for releasing locks to take into

    tickets with explicit duration (there is still internal
    method which allows to specify duration). To release locks
    with statement or transaction duration one have to use
    release_statement/transactional_locks() methods.
  * Concept of savepoint for MDL subsystem now has to take into
    account locks with statement duration. Consequently
    MDL_savepoint class was introduced and methods working with
    savepoints were updated accordingly.
  * Added methods which allow to set duration for one or all
    locks in the context.
sql/mysqld.cc:
  Removed global mutex and condition variables which were used
  by old implementation of GRL.
  Also we no longer need to initialize Events::LOCK_event_metadata
  mutex as it was replaced with metadata locks on events.
sql/mysqld.h:
  Removed global variable, mutex and condition variables which
  were used by old implementation of GRL.
sql/rpl_rli.cc:
  When slave thread closes tables which were open for handling
  of RBR events ensure that it releases global IX lock which
  was acquired as protection against GRL.
sql/sp.cc:
  Adjusted code to the new signature of lock_object/routine_name(),
  to the fact that one now needs specify duration of lock when
  initializing MDL_request and to the fact that savepoints for MDL
  subsystem are now represented by MDL_savepoint class.
sql/sp_head.cc:
  Ensure that statements in stored procedures release statement
  metadata locks and thus release their protectiong against GRL
  in proper moment in time.
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request.
sql/sql_admin.cc:
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  - Implemented support for new approach to acquiring protection
    against global read lock. We no longer acquire such protection
    explicitly on the basis of statement flags. Instead we always
    rely on code which is responsible for acquiring metadata locks
    on object to be changed acquiring this protection. This is
    achieved by acquiring global IX metadata lock with statement
    duration. Code doing this also responsible for checking that
    current connection has no active GRL by calling an
    Global_read_lock::can_acquire_protection() method.
    Changed code in open_table() and lock_table_names()
    accordingly.
    Note that as result of this change DDL and DML on temporary
    tables is always compatible with GRL (before it was
    incompatible in some cases and compatible in other cases).
  - To speed-up code acquiring protection against GRL introduced
    m_has_protection_against_grl member in Open_table_context
    class. It indicates that protection was already acquired
    sometime during open_tables() execution and new attempts
    can be skipped.
  - Thanks to new GRL implementation calls to broadcast_refresh()
    became unnecessary and were removed.
  - Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
    of lock when initializing MDL_request and to the fact that
    savepoints for MDL subsystem are now represented by
    MDL_savepoint class.
sql/sql_base.h:
  Adjusted code to the fact that savepoints for MDL subsystem are
  now represented by MDL_savepoint class.
  Also introduced Open_table_context::m_has_protection_against_grl
  member which allows to avoid acquiring protection against GRL
  while opening tables if such protection was already acquired.
sql/sql_class.cc:
  Changed THD::leave_locked_tables_mode() after transactional
  sentinel for metadata locks was obsoleted by introduction of
  locks with explicit duration.
sql/sql_class.h:
  - Adjusted code to the fact that savepoints for MDL subsystem
    are now represented by MDL_savepoint class.
  - Changed Global_read_lock class according to changes in
    global read lock implementation:
    * wait_if_global_read_lock and start_waiting_global_read_lock
      are now gone. Instead code needing protection against GRL
      has to acquire global IX metadata lock with statement
      duration itself. To help it new can_acquire_protection()
      was introduced. Also as result of the above change
      m_protection_count member is gone too.
    * Added m_mdl_blocks_commits_lock member to store metadata
      lock blocking commits.
    * Adjusted code to the fact that concept of transactional
      sentinel was obsoleted by concept of lock duration.
  - Removed CF_PROTECT_AGAINST_GRL flag as it is no longer
    necessary. New GRL implementation acquires protection
    against global read lock automagically when statement
    acquires metadata locks on tables or other objects it
    is going to change.
sql/sql_db.cc:
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
  Removed call to broadcast_refresh() function. It is no longer
  needed with new GRL implementation.
  Adjusted code after introducing duration concept for metadata
  locks. Particularly to the fact transactional sentinel was
  replaced with explicit duration.
sql/sql_handler.h:
  Renamed mysql_ha_move_tickets_after_trans_sentinel() to
  mysql_ha_set_explicit_lock_duration() after transactional
  sentinel was obsoleted by locks with explicit duration.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
  Adjusted code handling delaying inserts after switching to
  new GRL implementation. Now connection thread initiating
  delayed insert has to acquire global IX lock in addition
  to metadata lock on table being inserted into. This IX lock
  protects against GRL and similarly to SW lock on table being
  inserted into has to be passed to handler thread in order to
  avoid deadlocks.
sql/sql_lex.cc:
  LEX::protect_against_global_read_lock member is no longer
  necessary since protection against GRL is automatically
  taken by code acquiring metadata locks/opening tables.
sql/sql_lex.h:
  LEX::protect_against_global_read_lock member is no longer
  necessary since protection against GRL is automatically
  taken by code acquiring metadata locks/opening tables.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  - Implemented support for new approach to acquiring protection
    against global read lock. We no longer acquire such protection
    explicitly on the basis of statement flags. Instead we always
    rely on code which is responsible for acquiring metadata locks
    on object to be changed acquiring this protection. This is
    achieved by acquiring global IX metadata lock with statement
    duration. This lock is automatically released at the end of
    statement execution.
  - Changed implementation of CREATE/DROP PROCEDURE/FUNCTION not
    to release metadata locks and thus protection against of GRL
    in the middle of statement execution.
  - Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
    of lock when initializing MDL_request and to the fact that
    savepoints for MDL subsystem are now represented by
    MDL_savepoint class.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
  Adjusted code to the to the fact that savepoints for MDL
  subsystem are now represented by MDL_savepoint class.
sql/sql_rename.cc:
  With new GRL implementation there is no need to explicitly
  acquire protection against GRL before renaming tables.
  This happens automatically in code which acquires metadata
  locks on tables being renamed.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request and to the fact that
  savepoints for MDL subsystem are now represented by
  MDL_savepoint class.
sql/sql_table.cc:
  - With new GRL implementation there is no need to explicitly
    acquire protection against GRL before dropping tables.
    This happens automatically in code which acquires metadata
    locks on tables being dropped.
  - Changed mysql_alter_table() not to release lock on new table
    name explicitly and to rely on automatic release of locks
    at the end of statement instead. This was necessary since
    now MDL_context::release_lock() is supported only for locks
    for explicit duration.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
  With new GRL implementation there is no need to explicitly
  acquire protection against GRL before changing table triggers.
  This happens automatically in code which acquires metadata
  locks on tables which triggers are to be changed.
sql/sql_update.cc:
  Fix bug exposed by GRL testing. During prepare phase acquire
  only S metadata locks instead of SW locks to keep prepare of
  multi-UPDATE compatible with concurrent LOCK TABLES WRITE
  and global read lock.
sql/sql_view.cc:
  With new GRL implementation there is no need to explicitly
  acquire protection against GRL before creating view.
  This happens automatically in code which acquires metadata
  lock on view to be created.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
  LEX::protect_against_global_read_lock member is no longer
  necessary since protection against GRL is automatically
  taken by code acquiring metadata locks/opening tables.
sql/table.cc:
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request.
sql/table.h:
  Adjusted code to the fact that one now needs specify duration
  of lock when initializing MDL_request.
sql/transaction.cc:
  Replaced custom implementation of global read lock with
  one based on metadata locks. Consequently when doing
  commit instead of calling method of Global_read_lock
  class to acquire protection against GRL we simply acquire
  IX in COMMIT namespace.
  Also adjusted code to the fact that MDL savepoint is now
  represented by MDL_savepoint class.

a5efb91dea Bug#49938: Failing assertion: inode or deadlock in fsp/fsp0fsp.c
Bug#54678: InnoDB, TRUNCATE, ALTER, I_S SELECT, crash or deadlock

- Incompatible change: truncate no longer resorts to a row by
row delete if the storage engine does not support the truncate
method. Consequently, the count of affected rows does not, in
any case, reflect the actual number of rows.

- Incompatible change: it is no longer possible to truncate a
table that participates as a parent in a foreign key constraint,
unless it is a self-referencing constraint (both parent and child
are in the same table). To work around this incompatible change
and still be able to truncate such tables, disable foreign checks
with SET foreign_key_checks=0 before truncate. Alternatively, if
foreign key checks are necessary, please use a DELETE statement
without a WHERE condition.

Problem description:

The problem was that for storage engines that do not support
truncate table via a external drop and recreate, such as InnoDB
which implements truncate via a internal drop and recreate, the
delete_all_rows method could be invoked with a shared metadata
lock, causing problems if the engine needed exclusive access
to some internal metadata. This problem originated with the
fact that there is no truncate specific handler method, which
ended up leading to a abuse of the delete_all_rows method that
is primarily used for delete operations without a condition.

Solution:

The solution is to introduce a truncate handler method that is
invoked when the engine does not support truncation via a table
drop and recreate. This method is invoked under a exclusive
metadata lock, so that there is only a single instance of the
table when the method is invoked.

Also, the method is not invoked and a error is thrown if
the table is a parent in a non-self-referencing foreign key
relationship. This was necessary to avoid inconsistency as
some integrity checks are bypassed. This is inline with the
fact that truncate is primarily a DDL operation that was
designed to quickly remove all data from a table.

mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/innodb-truncate.test:
  Add test cases for truncate and foreign key checks.
  Also test that InnoDB resets auto-increment on truncate.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/innodb.test:
  FK is not necessary, test is related to auto-increment.
  
  Update error number, truncate is no longer invoked if
  table is parent in a FK relationship.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/innodb_mysql.test:
  Update error number, truncate is no longer invoked if
  table is parent in a FK relationship.
  
  Use delete instead of truncate, test is used to check
  the interaction of FKs, triggers and delete.
mysql-test/suite/parts/inc/partition_check.inc:
  Fix typo.
mysql-test/suite/sys_vars/t/foreign_key_checks_func.test:
  Update error number, truncate is no longer invoked if
  table is parent in a FK relationship.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Modify test case to reflect and ensure that truncate takes
  a exclusive metadata lock.
mysql-test/t/trigger-trans.test:
  Update error number, truncate is no longer invoked if
  table is parent in a FK relationship.
sql/ha_partition.cc:
  Reorganize the various truncate methods. delete_all_rows is now
  passed directly to the underlying engines, so as truncate. The
  code responsible for truncating individual partitions is moved
  to ha_partition::truncate_partition, which is invoked when a
  ALTER TABLE t1 TRUNCATE PARTITION p statement is executed.
  
  Since the partition truncate no longer can be invoked via
  delete, the bitmap operations are not necessary anymore. The
  explicit reset of the auto-increment value is also removed
  as the underlying engines are now responsible for reseting
  the value.
sql/handler.cc:
  Wire up the handler truncate method.
sql/handler.h:
  Introduce and document the truncate handler method. It assumes
  certain use cases of delete_all_rows.
  
  Add method to retrieve the list of foreign keys referencing a
  table. Method is used to avoid truncating tables that are
  parent in a foreign key relationship.
sql/share/errmsg-utf8.txt:
  Add error message for truncate and FK.
sql/sql_lex.h:
  Introduce a flag so that the partition engine can detect when
  a partition is being truncated. Used to give a special error.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Function mysql_truncate_table no longer exists.
sql/sql_partition_admin.cc:
  Implement the TRUNCATE PARTITION statement.
sql/sql_truncate.cc:
  Change the truncate table implementation to use the new truncate
  handler method and to not rely on row-by-row delete anymore.
  
  The truncate handler method is always invoked with a exclusive
  metadata lock. Also, it is no longer possible to truncate a
  table that is parent in some non-self-referencing foreign key.
storage/archive/ha_archive.cc:
  Rename method as the description indicates that in the future
  this could be a truncate operation.
storage/blackhole/ha_blackhole.cc:
  Implement truncate as no operation for the blackhole engine in
  order to remain compatible with older releases.
storage/federated/ha_federated.cc:
  Introduce truncate method that invokes delete_all_rows.
  This is required to support partition truncate as this
  form of truncate does not implement the drop and recreate
  protocol.
storage/heap/ha_heap.cc:
  Introduce truncate method that invokes delete_all_rows.
  This is required to support partition truncate as this
  form of truncate does not implement the drop and recreate
  protocol.
storage/ibmdb2i/ha_ibmdb2i.cc:
  Introduce truncate method that invokes delete_all_rows.
  This is required to support partition truncate as this
  form of truncate does not implement the drop and recreate
  protocol.
storage/innobase/handler/ha_innodb.cc:
  Rename delete_all_rows to truncate. InnoDB now does truncate
  under a exclusive metadata lock.
  
  Introduce and reorganize methods used to retrieve the list
  of foreign keys referenced by a or referencing a table.
storage/myisammrg/ha_myisammrg.cc:
  Introduce truncate method that invokes delete_all_rows.
  This is required in order to remain compatible with earlier
  releases where truncate would resort to a row-by-row delete.

51a81b6faf Bug #56292 Deadlock with ALTER TABLE and MERGE tables
ALTER TABLE on a MERGE table could cause a deadlock with two
other connections if we reached a situation where:

1) A connection doing ALTER TABLE can't upgrade to MDL_EXCLUSIVE on the
parent table, but holds TL_READ_NO_INSERT on the child tables.
2) A connection doing DELETE on a child table can't get TL_WRITE on it
since ALTER TABLE holds TL_READ_NO_INSERT.
3) A connection doing SELECT on the parent table can't get TL_READ on 
the child tables since TL_WRITE is ahead in the lock queue, but holds
MDL_SHARED_READ on the parent table preventing ALTER TABLE from upgrading.

For regular tables, this deadlock is avoided by having ALTER TABLE
take a MDL_SHARED_NO_WRITE metadata lock on the table. This prevents
DELETE from acquiring MDL_SHARED_WRITE on the table before ALTER TABLE
tries to upgrade to MDL_EXCLUSIVE. In the example above, SELECT would
therefore not be blocked by the pending DELETE as DELETE would not be
able to enter TL_WRITE in the table lock queue.

This patch fixes the problem for merge tables by using the same metadata
lock type for child tables as for the parent table. The child tables will
in this case therefore be locked with MDL_SHARED_NO_WRITE, preventing
DELETE from acquiring a metadata lock and enter into the table lock queue.

Change in behavior: By taking the same metadata lock for child tables
as for the parent table, LOCK TABLE on the parent table will now also
implicitly lock the child tables. Since LOCK TABLE on the parent table
now takes more than one metadata lock, it is possible for LOCK TABLE
... WRITE on the parent table or child tables to give ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
error.

Test case added to mdl_sync.test.
Merge.test/.result has been updated to reflect the change to LOCK TABLE.

00496b7acd Fix for bug #52044 "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK and FLUSH
TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK are incompatible".

The problem was that FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK
which was issued when other connection has acquired global
read lock using FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK was blocked
and has to wait until global read lock is released.

This issue stemmed from the fact that FLUSH TABLES <list>
WITH READ LOCK implementation has acquired X metadata locks
on tables to be flushed. Since these locks required acquiring
of global IX lock this statement was incompatible with global
read lock.

This patch addresses problem by using SNW metadata type of
lock for tables to be flushed by FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH
READ LOCK. It is OK to acquire them without global IX lock
as long as we won't try to upgrade those locks. Since SNW
locks allow concurrent statements using same table FLUSH
TABLE <list> WITH READ LOCK now has to wait until old
versions of tables to be flushed go away after acquiring
metadata locks. Since such waiting can lead to deadlock
MDL deadlock detector was extended to take into account
waits for flush and resolve such deadlocks.

As a bonus code in open_tables() which was responsible for
waiting old versions of tables to go away was refactored.
Now when we encounter old version of table in open_table()
we don't back-off and wait for all old version to go away,
but instead wait for this particular table to be flushed.
Such approach supported by deadlock detection should reduce
number of scenarios in which FLUSH TABLES aborts concurrent
multi-statement transactions.

Note that active FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK still
blocks concurrent FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement
as the former keeps tables open and thus prevents the
latter statement from doing flush.

mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
  Adjusted test case after changing status which is set
  when FLUSH TABLES waits for tables to be flushed from
  "Flushing tables" to "Waiting for table".
mysql-test/r/flush.result:
  Added test which checks that "flush tables <list> with
  read lock" is compatible with active "flush tables with
  read lock" but not vice-versa. This test also covers
  bug #52044 "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK and FLUSH TABLES
  <list> WITH READ LOCK are incompatible".
mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
  Added scenarios in which wait for table to be flushed
  causes deadlocks to the coverage of MDL deadlock detector.
mysql-test/suite/perfschema/r/dml_setup_instruments.result:
  Adjusted test results after removal of COND_refresh
  condition variable.
mysql-test/suite/perfschema/r/server_init.result:
  Adjusted test and its results after removal of COND_refresh
  condition variable.
mysql-test/suite/perfschema/t/server_init.test:
  Adjusted test and its results after removal of COND_refresh
  condition variable.
mysql-test/t/flush.test:
  Added test which checks that "flush tables <list> with
  read lock" is compatible with active "flush tables with
  read lock" but not vice-versa. This test also covers
  bug #52044 "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK and FLUSH TABLES
  <list> WITH READ LOCK are incompatible".
mysql-test/t/kill.test:
  Adjusted test case after changing status which is set
  when FLUSH TABLES waits for tables to be flushed from
  "Flushing tables" to "Waiting for table".
mysql-test/t/lock_multi.test:
  Adjusted test case after changing status which is set
  when FLUSH TABLES waits for tables to be flushed from
  "Flushing tables" to "Waiting for table".
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Added scenarios in which wait for table to be flushed
  causes deadlocks to the coverage of MDL deadlock detector.
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc:
  Adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
  close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
  table to be flushed.
sql/ha_ndbcluster_binlog.cc:
  Adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
  close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
  table to be flushed.
sql/lock.cc:
  Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
  for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/mdl.cc:
  Now MDL deadlock detector takes into account information
  about waits for table flushes when searching for deadlock.
  To implement this change:
  - Declaration of enum_deadlock_weight and
    Deadlock_detection_visitor were moved to mdl.h header
    to make them available to the code in table.cc which
    implements deadlock detector traversal through edges
    of waiters graph representing waiting for flush.
  - Since now MDL_context may wait not only for metadata
    lock but also for table to be flushed an abstract
    Wait_for_edge class was introduced. Its descendants
    MDL_ticket and Flush_ticket incapsulate specifics
    of inspecting waiters graph when following through
    edge representing wait of particular type.
  
  We no longer require global IX metadata lock when acquiring
  SNW or SNRW locks. Such locks are needed only when metadata
  locks of these types are upgraded to X locks. This allows
  to use SNW locks in FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK
  implementation and keep the latter compatible with global
  read lock.
sql/mdl.h:
  Now MDL deadlock detector takes into account information
  about waits for table flushes when searching for deadlock.
  To implement this change:
  - Declaration of enum_deadlock_weight and
    Deadlock_detection_visitor were moved to mdl.h header
    to make them available to the code in table.cc which
    implements deadlock detector traversal through edges
    of waiters graph representing waiting for flush.
  - Since now MDL_context may wait not only for metadata
    lock but also for table to be flushed an abstract
    Wait_for_edge class was introduced. Its descendants
    MDL_ticket and Flush_ticket incapsulate specifics
    of inspecting waiters graph when following through
    edge representing wait of particular type.
  - Deadlock_detection_visitor now has m_table_shares_visited
    member which allows to support recursive locking for
    LOCK_open. This is required when deadlock detector
    inspects waiters graph which contains several edges
    representing waits for flushes or needs to come through
    the such edge more than once.
sql/mysqld.cc:
  Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
  for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/mysqld.h:
  Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
  for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  Changed approach to how threads are waiting for table
  to be flushed. Now thread that wants to wait for old
  table to go away subscribes for notification by adding
  Flush_ticket to table's share and waits using
  MDL_context::m_wait object. Once table gets flushed
  (i.e. all tables are closed and table share is ready
  to be destroyed) all such waiters are notified
  individually.
  Thanks to this change MDL deadlock detector can take
  such waits into account.
  
  To implement this/as result of this change:
  - tdc_wait_for_old_versions() was replaced with
    tdc_wait_for_old_version() which waits for individual
    old share to go away and which is called by open_table()
    after finding out that share is outdated. We don't
    need to perform back-off before such waiting thanks
    to the fact that deadlock detector now sees such waits.
  - As result Open_table_ctx::m_mdl_requests became
    unnecessary and was removed. We no longer allocate
    copies of MDL_request objects on MEM_ROOT when
    MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED/SHARED_HIGH_PRIO flags are
    in effect.
  - close_cached_tables() and tdc_wait_for_old_version()
    share code which implements waiting for share to be
    flushed - the both use TABLE_SHARE::wait_until_flush()
    method. Thanks to this close_cached_tables() supports
    timeouts and has extra parameter for this.
  - Open_table_context::OT_MDL_CONFLICT enum element was
    renamed to OT_CONFLICT as it is now also used in cases
    when back-off is required to resolve deadlock caused
    by waiting for flush and not metadata lock.
  - In cases when we discover that current connection tries
    to open tables from different generation we now simply
    back-off and restart process of opening tables. To
    support this Open_table_context::OT_REOPEN_TABLES enum
    element was added.
  - COND_refresh condition variable became unnecessary and
    was removed.
  - mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock() no longer wakes
    up connections waiting for flush as all such connections
    can be waken up by deadlock detector if necessary.
sql/sql_base.h:
  - close_cached_tables() now has one more parameter -
    timeout for waiting for table to be flushed.
  - Open_table_context::OT_MDL_CONFLICT enum element was
    renamed to OT_CONFLICT as it is now also used in cases
    when back-off is required to resolve deadlock caused
    by waiting for flush and not metadata lock.
    Added new OT_REOPEN_TABLES enum element to be used in
    cases when we need to restart open tables process even
    in the middle of transaction.
  - Open_table_ctx::m_mdl_requests became unnecessary and
    was removed.
sql/sql_class.h:
  Added assert ensuring that we won't use LOCK_open mutex
  with THD::enter_cond(). Otherwise deadlocks can arise in
  MDL deadlock detector.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Changed FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK to take SNW
  metadata locks instead of X locks on tables to be flushed.
  Since we no longer require global IX lock to be taken
  when SNW locks are taken this makes this statement
  compatible with FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement.
  Since SNW locks allow other connections to have table
  opened FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK now has to
  wait during open_tables() for old version to go away.
  Such waits can lead to deadlocks which will be detected
  by MDL deadlock detector which now takes waits for table
  to be flushed into account.
  
  Also adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
  close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
  table to be flushed.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
  FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK now needs only SNW
  metadata locks on tables.
sql/sys_vars.cc:
  Adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
  close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
  table to be flushed.
sql/table.cc:
  Implemented new approach to how threads are waiting for
  table to be flushed. Now thread that wants to wait for
  old table to go away subscribes for notification by
  adding Flush_ticket to table's share and waits using
  MDL_context::m_wait object. Once table gets flushed
  (i.e. all tables are closed and table share is ready
  to be destroyed) all such waiters are notified
  individually. This change allows to make such waits
  visible inside of MDL deadlock detector.
  To do it:
  
  - Added list of waiters/Flush_tickets to TABLE_SHARE
    class.
  - Changed free_table_share() to postpone freeing of
    share memory until last waiter goes away and to
    wake up subscribed waiters.
  - Added TABLE_SHARE::wait_until_flushed() method which
    implements subscription to the list of waiters for
    table to be flushed and waiting for this event.
  
  Implemented interface which allows to expose waits for
  flushes to MDL deadlock detector:
  
  - Introduced Flush_ticket class a descendant of
    Wait_for_edge class.
  - Added TABLE_SHARE::find_deadlock() method which allows
    deadlock detector to find out what contexts are still
    using old version of table in question (i.e. to find
    out what contexts are waited for by owner of
    Flush_ticket).
sql/table.h:
  In order to support new strategy of waiting for table flush
  (see comment for table.cc for details) added list of
  waiters/Flush_tickets to TABLE_SHARE class.
  
  Implemented interface which allows to expose waits for

  - Introduced Flush_ticket class a descendant of

9ff272fbbd A 5.5 version of the fix for Bug #54360 "Deadlock DROP/ALTER/CREATE
DATABASE with open HANDLER"

Remove LOCK_create_db, database name locks, and use metadata locks instead.
This exposes CREATE/DROP/ALTER DATABASE statements to the graph-based
deadlock detector in MDL, and paves the way for a safe, deadlock-free
implementation of RENAME DATABASE.

Database DDL statements will now take exclusive metadata locks on
the database name, while table/view/routine DDL statements take
intention exclusive locks on the database name. This prevents race
conditions between database DDL and table/view/routine DDL.
(e.g. DROP DATABASE with concurrent CREATE/ALTER/DROP TABLE)

By adding database name locks, this patch implements
WL#4450 "DDL locking: CREATE/DROP DATABASE must use database locks" and
WL#4985 "DDL locking: namespace/hierarchical locks".

The patch also changes code to use init_one_table() where appropriate.
The new lock_table_names() function requires TABLE_LIST::db_length to
be set correctly, and this is taken care of by init_one_table().

This patch also adds a simple template to help work with 
the mysys HASH data structure.

Most of the patch was written by Konstantin Osipov.

9dbd9ce185 Patch that changes approach to how we acquire metadata
locks for DML statements and changes the way MDL locks
are acquired/granted in contended case.

Instead of backing-off when a lock conflict is encountered
and waiting for it to go away before restarting open_tables()
process we now wait for lock to be released without releasing
any previously acquired locks. If conflicting lock goes away
we resume opening tables. If waiting leads to a deadlock we
try to resolve it by backing-off and restarting open_tables()
immediately.

As result both waiting for possibility to acquire and
acquiring of a metadata lock now always happen within the
same MDL API call. This has allowed to make release of a lock
and granting it to the most appropriate pending request an
atomic operation.
Thanks to this it became possible to wake up during release
of lock only those waiters which requests can be satisfied
at the moment as well as wake up only one waiter in case
when granting its request would prevent all other requests
from being satisfied. This solves thundering herd problem
which occured in cases when we were releasing some lock and
woke up many waiters for SNRW or X locks (this was the issue
in bug#52289 "performance regression for MyISAM in sysbench
OLTP_RW test".
This also allowed to implement more fair (FIFO) scheduling
among waiters with the same priority.
It also opens the door for introducing new types of requests
for metadata locks such as low-prio SNRW lock which is
necessary in order to support LOCK TABLES LOW_PRIORITY WRITE.

Notice that after this sometimes can report ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
error in cases in which it has not happened before.
Particularly we will always report this error if waiting for
conflicting lock has happened in the middle of transaction
and resulted in a deadlock. Before this patch the error was
not reported if deadlock could have been resolved by backing
off all metadata locks acquired by the current statement.

mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
  Added test coverage for some aspects of deadlock handling in
  metadata locking subsystem.
  Adjusted test case after removing back-off in general case
  when conflicting metadata lock is encountered during
  open_tables() (now this happens only if waiting for
  conflicting lock to go away leads to a deadlock).
mysql-test/r/sp_sync.result:
  Adjusted test case after removing back-off in general case
  when conflicting metadata lock is encountered during
  open_tables() (now this happens only if waiting for
  conflicting lock to go away leads to a deadlock).
mysql-test/suite/perfschema/r/dml_setup_instruments.result:
  Adjusted test results after renaming MDL_context::
  m_waiting_for_lock rwlock to m_LOCK_waiting_for.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/r/rpl_sp.result:
  Adjusted test case after implementing new approach to
  acquiring metadata locks in open_tables(). We no longer
  release all MDL locks acquired by statement before waiting
  for conflicting lock to go away. As result DROP FUNCTION
  statement has to wait for DML statement which managed to
  acquire metadata lock on function being dropped and now
  waits for other conflicting metadata lock to go away.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/t/rpl_sp.test:
  Adjusted test case after implementing new approach to
  acquiring metadata locks in open_tables(). We no longer
  release all MDL locks acquired by statement before waiting
  for conflicting lock to go away. As result DROP FUNCTION
  statement has to wait for DML statement which managed to
  acquire metadata lock on function being dropped and now
  waits for other conflicting metadata lock to go away.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Added test coverage for some aspects of deadlock handling in
  metadata locking subsystem.
  Adjusted test case after removing back-off in general case
  when conflicting metadata lock is encountered during
  open_tables() (now this happens only if waiting for
  conflicting lock to go away leads to a deadlock).
mysql-test/t/sp_sync.test:
  Adjusted test case after removing back-off in general case
  when conflicting metadata lock is encountered during
  open_tables() (now this happens only if waiting for
  conflicting lock to go away leads to a deadlock).
sql/mdl.cc:
  Changed MDL subsystem to support new approach to acquring
  metadata locks in open tables and more fair and efficient
  scheduling of metadata locks. To implement this:
  - Made releasing of the lock and granting it to the most
    appropriate pending request atomic operation. As result it
    became possible to wake up only those waiters requests from
    which can be satisfied at the moment as well as wake-up
    only one waiter in case when granting its request would
    prevent all other requests from being satisfied.
    This solved thundering herd problem which occured in cases
    when we were releasing some lock and woke up many waiters
    for SNRW or X locks (this was the issue in Bug #52289
    "performance regression for MyISAM in sysbench OLTP_RW
    test".
    To emphasize above changes wake_up_waiters() was renamed
    to MDL_context::reschedule_waiters().
  - Changed code to add tickets for new requests to the back of
    waiters queue and to select tickets to be satisfied from
    the head of the queue if possible (this makes scheduling of
    requests with the same priority fair). To be able to do
    this efficiently we now use for waiting and granted queues
    version of I_P_List class which provides fast push_back()
    method.
  - Members and methods of MDL_context related to sending
    and waiting for signal were moved to separate MDL_wait
    class.
  - Since in order to avoid race conditions we must grant the
    lock only to the context which was not chosen as a victim
    of deadlock, killed or aborted due to timeout
    MDL_wait::set_status() (former awake()) was changed not to
    send signal if signal slot is already occupied and to
    indicate this fact through its return value. As another
    consequence MDL_wait::timed_wait() method was changed to
    handle timeout (optionally) and abort due to kill as
    signals which make signal slot occupied.
  - Renamed MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl() to acquire_lock().
    Changed it to be able correctly process requests for shared
    locks when there are open HANDLERs, made this method more
    optimized for acquisition of shared locks. As part of this
    change moved code common between try_acquire_lock() and
    acquire_lock() to new try_acquire_lock_impl() method.
    Also adjusted acquire_lock()'s code to take into account
    the fact that in cases when lock is granted as result of
    MDL_context::reschedule_waiters() call (i.e. when it is
    granted after waiting for lock conflict to go away)
    updating MDL_lock state is responsibility of the thread
    calling reschedule_waiters().
  - Changed MDL_context::find_deadlock() to send VICTIM
    signal even if victim is the context which has initiated
    deadlock detection. This is required in order to avoid
    races in cases when the same context simultaneously is
    chosen as a victim and its request for lock is satisfied.
    As result return value of this method became unnecessary
    and it was changed to return void.
    Adjusted MDL_lock::find_deadlock() method to take into
    account that now there can be a discrepancy between
    MDL_context::m_waiting_for value being set and real state
    of the ticket this member points to.
  - Renamed MDL_context::m_waiting_for_lock to m_LOCK_waiting_for
    and MDL_context::stop_waiting() to done_waiting_for().
  - Finally, removed MDL_context::wait_for_lock() method.
sql/mdl.h:
  Changed MDL subsystem to support new approach to acquring
  metadata locks in open tables and more fair and efficient
  scheduling of metadata locks. To implement this:
  - Members and methods of MDL_context related to sending
    and waiting for signal were moved to separate MDL_wait
    class.
  - Since now in order to avoid race conditions we must grant
    the lock only to the context which was not chosen as a
    victim of deadlock, killed or aborted due to timeout
    MDL_wait::set_status (former awake()) was changed not to
    send signal if signal slot is already occupied and to
    indicate this fact through its return value.
    Also NORMAL_WAKE_UP signal became GRANTED, and timeouts
    and aborts due to kill became full blown signals rather
    than simple return values.
  - MDL_wait::timed_wait() now takes extra parameter that
    indicates whether signal should be set if timeout is
    reached.
  - Enabled fast push_back() operation in MDL_context::m_tickets
    list to make move_ticket_after_trans_sentinel() method more
    efficient.
  - Removed MDL_context::wait_for_lock() method.
  - Renamed MDL_context::m_waiting_for_lock to m_LOCK_waiting_for
    and MDL_context::stop_waiting() to done_waiting_for().
  - MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl() became acquire_lock().
  - Introduced MDL_context::try_acquire_lock_impl() as a
    place for code shared by try_acquire_lock and
    acquire_lock().
  - Due to fact that now VICTIM signal is sent even if victim
    is the context which has initiated deadlock detection
    find_deadlock() no longer needs a return value.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  Implemented new approach to acquiring metadata locks in
  open_tables(). We no longer perform back-off when conflicting
  metadata lock is encountered. Instead we wait for this lock
  to go away while holding all locks which were acquired so
  far. Back-off is only used in situation when further waiting
  will cause a deadlock which could be avoided by performing
  back-off and restarting open_tables() process. Absence of
  waiting between back-off and restart of acquiring metadata
  locks can't lead to livelocks as MDL subsystem was changed
  to make release of lock and granting it to waiting lock
  an atomic action, so back-off will automatically give way
  to other participants of deadlock loop.
  Accordingly:
  - open_table_get_mdl_lock() and open_and_process_routine()
    were changed to wait for conflicting metadata lock to
    go away without back-off. Only if such wait leads to a
    deadlock back-off is requested. As part of this change
    new error handler class was introduced which converts,
    if possible, ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error to a request for
    back-off and re-start of open_tables() process.
  - Open_table_context::recover_from_failed_open() was changed
    not to wait in case of metadata lock conflict. Instead we
    immediately proceed to re-acquiring locks.
  - Open_table_context::request_backoff_action() now always
    emits error if back-off is requested in the middle of
    transaction as we can't be sure that releasing lock
    which were acquired only by current statement will
    resolve a deadlock. Before this patch such situations were
    successfully detected thanks to the fact that we called
    MDL_context::wait_for_lock() method in
    recover_from_failed_open().
  - In order to avoid deadlocks open_tables() code was adjusted
    to flush open HANDLERs for which there are pending requests
    for X locks before restarting the process of acquiring
    metadata locks.
  - Changed close_tables_for_reopen() not to reset MDL_request
    for tables belonging to the tail of prelocking list. It is
    no longer necessary as these MDL_request objects won't be
    used for any waiting.
  - Adjusted comment in tdc_wait_for_old_version() to avoid
    mentioning removed MDL_context::wait_for_lock() method.
sql/sql_base.h:
  As we no longer wait for conflicting metadata lock away in
  Open_table_context::recover_from_failed_open() method,
  Open_table_context::OT_WAIT_MDL_LOCK action was renamed to
  OT_MDL_CONFLICT.
  Also Open_table_context::m_failed_mdl_request became
  unnecessary and was removed.
sql/sql_plist.h:
  Extended I_P_List template to support efficient push_back()
  operation if it is parameterized with an appropriate policy
  class.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  Adjusted code after removal of MDL_context::wait_for_lock()
  method. Now if one needs to acquire metadata lock with waiting
  one has to use a variant of MDL_context::acquire_lock() method.

4f18083b08 Bug#42643: InnoDB does not support replication of TRUNCATE TABLE
The problem was that TRUNCATE TABLE didn't take a exclusive
lock on a table if it resorted to truncating via delete of
all rows in the table. Specifically for InnoDB tables, this
could break proper isolation as InnoDB ends up aborting some
granted locks when truncating a table.

The solution is to take a exclusive metadata lock before
TRUNCATE TABLE can proceed. This guarantees that no other
transaction is using the table.

Incompatible change: Truncate via delete no longer fails
if sql_safe_updates is activated (this was a undocumented
side effect).

96344befd3 Fix for bug #50998 "Deadlock in MDL code during test
rqg_mdl_stability".

When start of statement's waiting on a metadata lock 
created more than one loop in waiters graph server might 
have entered deadlock condition.

The problem was that in the case described above MDL deadlock 
detector had to perform several searches for deadlock but
forgot to reset Deadlock_detection_context before performing 
new search. 
Failure to do so has broken assumption in code resposible for 
choosing victim that if Deadlock_detection_context::victim
is set we also have read lock on m_waiting_for_lock for this
context. As result this lock could have been unlocked more
times than it was acquired which corrupted rwlock's state
which led to server deadlock.

This fix ensures that such reset is done before each attempt
to find a deadlock.

mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
  Added test for bug #50998 "Deadlock in MDL code during test
  rqg_mdl_stability" as well as coverage for the case when
  addition of statement waiting for metadata lock adds several
  loops in the waiters graph and therefore several searches
  for deadlock should be performed by MDL deadlock detector.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Added test for bug #50998 "Deadlock in MDL code during test
  rqg_mdl_stability" as well as coverage for the case when
  addition of statement waiting for metadata lock adds several
  loops in the waiters graph and therefore several searches
  for deadlock should be performed by MDL deadlock detector.
sql/mdl.cc:
  Ensure that in cases when MDL deadlock detector had to
  perform several searches for deadlock because several loops
  in waiters graph are possible we reset
  Deadlock_detection_context before performing each search.
  Failure to do so has broken assumption in code resposible
  for choosing victim that if Deadlock_detection_context::victim
  is set we also have read lock on m_waiting_for_lock for this
  context. As result this lock could have been unlocked more
  times than it was acquired which corrupted rwlock's state
  (no one was able to acquire write lock on it anymore).

8018ec5adb Fix for bug #50913 "Deadlock between open_and_lock_tables_derived
and MDL".

Concurrent execution of a multi-DELETE statement and ALTER
TABLE statement which affected one of the tables used in
the multi-DELETE sometimes led to deadlock.
Similar deadlocks might have occured when one performed
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE on a view and concurrently executed
ALTER TABLE for the view's underlying table, or when one
concurrently executed TRUNCATE TABLE for InnoDB table and
ALTER TABLE for the same table.

These deadlocks were caused by a discrepancy between types of
metadata and thr_lock.cc locks acquired by those statements.

What happened was that multi-DELETE/TRUNCATE/DML-through-the-
view statement in the first connection acquired SR lock on a
table, then ALTER TABLE would come in in the second connection
and acquire SNW metadata lock and TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ
thr_lock.c lock and then would start waiting for the first
connection during lock upgrade. After that the statement in
the first connection would try to acquire TL_WRITE lock on
table and would start waiting for the second connection,
creating a deadlock.

This patch solves this problem by ensuring that we acquire
SW metadata lock in all cases in which we acquiring write
thr_lock.c lock. This guarantees that deadlocks like the
one described above won't occur since all lock conflicts
in such situation are resolved within MDL subsystem.

This patch also adds assert which should guarantee that
such situations won't arise in future.

mysql-test/r/lock_multi.result:
  Added main test for bug #50913 "Deadlock between

  open_and_lock_tables_derived and MDL".
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Added additional coverage for bug #50913 "Deadlock
  between open_and_lock_tables_derived and MDL".
sql/lock.cc:
  Added assert that enforces that when we are locking
  a non-temporary table we have an appropriate type of
  metadata lock on this table.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  Added separate flag for open_tables() to be able specify that
  SH metadata locks on table to be open should be acquired.
  We can no longer use MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH flag for this
  as in addition to use in I_S implementation it is also used
  for opening system tables. Since in the latter case we also
  acquire thr_lock.c locks using SH metadata lock in it instead
  of SR or SW locks may lead to deadlock.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  When opening tables don't interpret MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH
  flag as request to acquire SH metadata locks. This flag is
  also used for opening system tables for which we also take
  thr_lock.c locks and thus proper metadata lock to take in
  this case is SR or SW lock (otherwise deadlocks can occur).
  In cases when SH lock is really required (e.g. when tables
  are open by I_S implementation) we rely on that newly
  introduced MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO_MDL flag is
  used.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
  mysql_truncate_by_delete():
    Adjust type of metadata lock to be requested after changing
    type of thr_lock.c lock for table list element from one
    which was set in parser to TL_WRITE.
    This removes discrepancy between types of these locks which
    allowed deadlocks to creep in.
sql/sql_handler.cc:
  When closing table which was open by HANDLER statement clear
  TABLE::open_by_handler flag. This allows to use this flag as
  a reliable indication that TABLE instance was open by HANDLER
  statement in assert which was added to mysql_lock_tables().
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  multi_delete_set_locks_and_link_aux_tables():
    Adjust type of metadata lock to be requested after changing
    type of thr_lock.c lock for table list element from one
    which was set in parser to TL_WRITE.
    This removes discrepancy between types of these locks which
    allowed deadlocks to creep in.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  Use newly introduced MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO_MDL
  flag in order to acquire SH metadata locks when opening tables
  in I_S implementation.
sql/sql_update.cc:
  Added comment explaining why in multi-update after deciding
  that we need weaker thr_lock.c lock on a table we don't
  downgrade metadata lock on it.
sql/sql_view.cc:
  When merging view into main statement adjust type of metadata
  lock to be requested after changing type of thr_lock.c lock
  for table. This removes discrepancy between types of these
  locks which allowed deadlocks to creep in.

b417300c9a Bug #50786 Assertion `thd->mdl_context.trans_sentinel() == __null'
failed in open_ltable()

The problem was too restrictive asserts that enforced that 
open_ltable() was called without any active HANDLERs, LOCK TABLES
or global read locks. 

However, this can happen in several cases when opening system
tables. The assert would, for example, be triggered when drop
function was called from a connection with active HANDLERs as
this would cause open_ltable() to be called for mysql.proc.
The assert could also be triggered when using table-based
general log (mysql.general_log).

This patch removes the asserts since they will be triggered in
several legitimate cases and because the asserts are no longer
relevant due to changes in how locks are released.

The patch also fixes set_needs_thr_lock_abort() that before 
ignored its parameter and always set the member variable to TRUE.

Test case added to mdl_sync.test.

eba5d30e67 Implement new type-of-operation-aware metadata locks.
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/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:

  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/lock.cc:
  Global read lock functionality has been

  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.

6ddd01c27a Patch that changes metadata locking subsystem to use mutex per lock and
condition variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional
variable for the whole subsystem.

This should increase concurrency in this subsystem.

It also opens the way for further changes which are necessary to solve
such bugs as bug #46272 "MySQL 5.4.4, new MDL: unnecessary deadlock"
and bug #37346 "innodb does not detect deadlock between update and alter
table".

Two other notable changes done by this patch:

- MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
  metadata lock when per-object metadata lock is acquired. Now this has
  to be done by explicit calls outside of MDL subsystem.
- Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables/tables
  for purposes of I_S we now create MDL savepoint in the main context
  before opening tables and rollback to this savepoint after closing
  them. This means that it is now possible to get ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error
  even not inside a transaction. This might happen in unlikely case when
  one runs DDL on one of system tables while also running DDL on some
  other tables. Cases when this ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error is not justified
  will be addressed by advanced deadlock detector for MDL subsystem which
  we plan to implement.

mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
  Adjusted handler_myisam.test and handler_innodb.test to the fact that
  exclusive metadata locks on tables are now acquired according to
  alphabetical order of fully qualified table names instead of order
  in which tables are mentioned in statement.
mysql-test/r/handler_innodb.result:
  Adjusted handler_myisam.test and handler_innodb.test to the fact that
  exclusive metadata locks on tables are now acquired according to
  alphabetical order of fully qualified table names instead of order
  in which tables are mentioned in statement.
mysql-test/r/handler_myisam.result:
  Adjusted handler_myisam.test and handler_innodb.test to the fact that
  exclusive metadata locks on tables are now acquired according to
  alphabetical order of fully qualified table names instead of order
  in which tables are mentioned in statement.
mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:
  Adjusted mdl_sync.test to the fact that exclusive metadata locks on
  tables are now acquired according to alphabetical order of fully
  qualified table names instead of order in which tables are mentioned
  in statement.
mysql-test/t/mdl_sync.test:
  Adjusted mdl_sync.test to the fact that exclusive metadata locks on
  tables are now acquired according to alphabetical order of fully
  qualified table names instead of order in which tables are mentioned
  in statement.
sql/events.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
  opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc:
  Since manipulations with open table state no longer install proxy
  MDL_context it does not make sense to perform them in order to
  satisfy assert in mysql_rm_tables_part2(). Removed them per agreement
  with Cluster team. This has not broken test suite since scenario in
  which deadlock can occur and assertion fails is not covered by tests.
sql/lock.cc:
  MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
  metadata lock when per-object exclusive metadata lock is acquired.
  Now this has to be done by explicit calls outside of MDL subsystem.
sql/log.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
  opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/mdl.cc:
  Changed metadata locking subsystem to use mutex per lock and condition
  variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional variable
  for the whole subsystem.
  Changed approach to handling of global metadata locks. Instead of
  implicitly acquiring intention exclusive locks when user requests
  per-object upgradeable or exclusive locks now we require them to be
  acquired explicitly in the same way as ordinary metadata locks.
  In fact global lock are now ordinary metadata locks in new GLOBAL
  namespace.
  
  To implement these changes:
  - Removed LOCK_mdl mutex and COND_mdl condition variable.
  - Introduced MDL_lock::m_mutex mutexes which protect individual lock
    objects.
  - Replaced mdl_locks hash with MDL_map class, which has hash for
    MDL_lock objects as a member and separate mutex which protects this
    hash. Methods of this class allow to find(), find_or_create() or
    remove() MDL_lock objects in concurrency-friendly fashion (i.e.
    for most common operation, find_or_create(), we don't acquire
    MDL_lock::m_mutex while holding MDL_map::m_mutex. Thanks to MikaelR
    for this idea and benchmarks!). Added three auxiliary members to
    MDL_lock class (m_is_destroyed, m_ref_usage, m_ref_release) to
    support this concurrency-friendly behavior.
  - Introduced MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond condition variable to be
    used for waiting until this context's pending request can be
    satisfied or its thread has to perform actions to resolve potential
    deadlock. Context which want to wait add ticket corresponding to the
    request to an appropriate queue of waiters in MDL_lock object so
    they can be noticed when other contexts change state of lock and be
    awaken by them by signalling on MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond.
    As consequence MDL_ticket objects has to be used for any waiting
    in metadata locking subsystem including one which happens in
    MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method.
    Another consequence is that MDL_context is no longer copyable and
    can't be saved/restored when working with system tables.
  - Made MDL_lock an abstract class, which delegates specifying exact
    compatibility matrix to its descendants. Added MDL_global_lock child
    class for global lock (The old is_lock_type_compatible() method
    became can_grant_lock() method of this class). Added MDL_object_lock
    class to represent per-object lock (The old MDL_lock::can_grant_lock()
    became its method). Choice between two classes happens based on MDL
    namespace in MDL_lock::create() method.
  - Got rid of MDL_lock::type member as its meaning became ambigous for
    global locks.
  - To simplify waking up of contexts waiting for lock split waiting queue
    in MDL_lock class in two queues. One for pending requests for exclusive
    (including intention exclusive) locks and another for requests for
    shared locks.
  - Added virtual wake_up_waiters() method to MDL_lock, MDL_global_lock and
    MDL_object_lock classes which allows to wake up waiting contexts after
    state of lock changes. Replaced old duplicated code with calls to this
    method.
  - Adjusted MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock()/exclusive_lock()/
    global_shared_lock(), MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive_lock()
    and MDL_context::release_ticket() methods to use MDL_map and
    MDL_lock::m_mutex instead of single LOCK_mdl mutex and wake up
    waiters according to the approach described above. The latter method
    also was renamed to MDL_context::release_lock().
  - Changed MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock()/exclusive_lock() and
    release_lock() not to handle global locks. They are now supposed to
    be taken explicitly like ordinary metadata locks.
  - Added helper MDL_context::try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()
    and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() methods.
  - Moved common code from MDL_context::acquire_global_shared_lock() and
    acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() to new method -
    MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl().
  - Moved common code from MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock(),
    try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()/exclusive_lock()
    to MDL_context::try_acquire_lock_impl().
  - Since acquiring of several exclusive locks can no longer happen under
    single LOCK_mdl mutex the approach to it had to be changed. Now we do
    it in one by one fashion. This is done in alphabetical order to avoid
    deadlocks. Changed MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_locks() accordingly
    (as part of this change moved code responsible for acquiring single
    exclusive lock to new MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl()
    method).
  - Since we no longer have single LOCK_mdl mutex which protects all
    MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl members using these members to
    determine if we have really awaken context holding conflicting
    shared lock became inconvinient. Got rid of this member and changed
    notify_shared_lock() helper function and process of acquiring
    of/upgrading to exclusive lock not to rely on such information.
    Now in MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl() and
    MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive_lock() we simply
    re-try to wake up threads holding conflicting shared locks after
    small time out.
  - Adjusted MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() and
    MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock() to use per-lock
    mutexes instead of LOCK_mdl. To do this introduced
    MDL_lock::has_pending_exclusive_lock() method.
sql/mdl.h:
  Changed metadata locking subsystem to use mutex per lock and condition
  variable per context instead of one mutex and one conditional variable
  for the whole subsystem. In order to implement this change:
  
  - Added MDL_key::cmp() method to be able to sort MDL_key objects
    alphabetically. Changed length fields in MDL_key class to uint16
    as 16-bit is enough for length of any key.
  - Changed MDL_ticket::get_ctx() to return pointer to non-const
    object in order to be able to use MDL_context::awake() method
    for such contexts.
  - Got rid of unlocked versions of can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/
    has_pending_conflicting_lock() methods in MDL_context and
    MDL_ticket. We no longer has single mutex which protects all
    locks. Thus one always has to use versions of these methods
    which acquire per-lock mutexes.
  - MDL_request_list type of list now counts its elements.
  - Added MDL_context::m_ctx_wakeup_cond condition variable to be used
    for waiting until this context's pending request can be satisfied
    or its thread has to perform actions to resolve potential deadlock.
    Added awake() method to wake up context from such wait.
    Addition of condition variable made MDL_context uncopyable.
    As result we no longer can save/restore MDL_context when working
    with system tables. Instead we create MDL savepoint before opening
    those tables and rollback to it once they are closed.
  - MDL_context::release_ticket() became release_lock() method.
  - Added auxiliary MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_lock_impl() method
    which does all necessary work to acquire exclusive lock on one object
    but should not be used directly as it does not enforce any asserts
    ensuring that no deadlocks are possible.
  - Since we no longer need to know if thread trying to acquire exclusive
    lock managed to wake up any threads having conflicting shared locks
    (as, anyway, we will try to wake up such threads again shortly)
  - MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl member became unnecessary and
    notify_shared_lock() no longer needs to be friend of MDL_context.
  
  Changed approach to handling of global metadata locks. Instead of
  implicitly acquiring intention exclusive locks when user requests
  per-object upgradeable or exclusive locks now we require them to be
  acquired explicitly in the same way as ordinary metadata locks.
  
  - Added new GLOBAL namespace for such locks.
  - Added new type of lock to be requested MDL_INTENTION_EXCLISIVE.
  - Added MDL_context::try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()
    and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() methods.
  - Moved common code from MDL_context::acquire_global_shared_lock()
    and acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock() to new method -
    MDL_context::acquire_lock_impl().
  - Moved common code from MDL_context::try_acquire_shared_lock(),
    try_acquire_global_intention_exclusive_lock()/exclusive_lock()
    to MDL_context::try_acquire_lock_impl().
  - Added helper MDL_context::is_global_lock_owner() method to be
    able easily to find what kind of global lock this context holds.
  - MDL_context::m_has_global_shared_lock became unnecessary as
    global read lock is now represented by ordinary ticket.
  - Removed assert in MDL_context::set_lt_or_ha_sentinel() which became
    false for cases when we execute LOCK TABLES under global read lock
    mode.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result calls
  opening/closing system tables were changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/sp.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now

  opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  close_thread_tables():
    Since we no longer use separate MDL_context for opening system
    tables we need to avoid releasing all transaction locks when
    closing system table. Releasing metadata lock on system table
    is now responsibility of THD::restore_backup_open_tables_state().
  open_table_get_mdl_lock(),
  Open_table_context::recover_from_failed_open():
    MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
    metadata lock when per-object upgradable or exclusive metadata lock is
    acquired. So this have to be done explicitly from these calls.
    Changed Open_table_context class to store MDL_request object for
    global intention exclusive lock acquired when opening tables.
  open_table():
    Do not release metadata lock if we have failed to open table as
    this lock might have been acquired by one of previous statements
    in transaction, and therefore should not be released.
  open_system_tables_for_read()/close_system_tables()/
  open_performance_schema_table():
    Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
    create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
    and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
    change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
    state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
    to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
    opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
    instead of Open_table_state class as well.
  close_performance_schema_table():
    Got rid of duplicated code.
sql/sql_class.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. Also releasing
  metadata lock on system table is now responsibility of
  THD::restore_backup_open_tables_state().
  Adjusted assert in THD::cleanup() to take into account fact that now
  we also use MDL sentinel for global read lock.
sql/sql_class.h:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. As result:
  - 'mdl_context' member was moved out of Open_tables_state to THD class.
    enter_locked_tables_mode()/leave_locked_tables_mode() had to follow.
  - Methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table state were
    changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition to
    Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint.
  Changed Open_table_context class to store MDL_request object for
  global intention exclusive lock acquired when opening tables.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
  MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention exclusive
  metadata lock when per-object exclusive metadata lock is acquired.
  Now this has to be done by explicit calls outside of MDL subsystem.
sql/sql_help.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
  opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Adjusted assert reload_acl_and_cache() to the fact that global read
  lock now takes full-blown metadata lock.
sql/sql_plist.h:
  Added support for element counting to I_P_List list template.
  One can use policy classes to specify if such counting is needed
  or not needed for particular list.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening tables for I_S
  purposes we now create MDL savepoint in the main context before
  opening tables and rollback to this savepoint after closing them.
  To support this and similar change for system tables methods of
  THD responsible for saving/restoring open table state were changed
  to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition to Open_table_state
  has a member for this savepoint. As result code opening/closing tables
  for I_S purposes was changed to use Open_tables_backup instead of
  Open_table_state class as well.
sql/sql_table.cc:
  mysql_rm_tables_part2():
    Since now global intention exclusive metadata lock is ordinary
    metadata lock we no longer can rely that by releasing MDL locks
    on all tables we will release all locks acquired by this routine.
    So in non-LOCK-TABLES mode we have to release all locks acquired
    explicitly.
  prepare_for_repair(), mysql_alter_table():
    MDL subsystem no longer implicitly acquires global intention
    exclusive metadata lock when per-object exclusive metadata lock
    is acquired. Now this has to be done by explicit calls outside of
    MDL subsystem.
sql/tztime.cc:
  Instead of using separate MDL_context for opening system tables we now
  create MDL savepoint in the main context before opening such tables
  and rollback to this savepoint after closing them. To support this
  change methods of THD responsible for saving/restoring open table
  state were changed to use Open_tables_backup class which in addition
  to Open_table_state has a member for this savepoint. As result code
  opening/closing system tables was changed to use Open_tables_backup
  instead of Open_table_state class as well.
  Also changed code not to use special mechanism for open system tables
  when it is not really necessary.

0228c98936 Implementation of simple deadlock detection for metadata locks.
This change is supposed to reduce number of ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
errors which occur when multi-statement transaction encounters
conflicting metadata lock in cases when waiting is possible.

The idea is not to fail ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error immediately when
we encounter conflicting metadata lock. Instead we release all
metadata locks acquired by current statement and start to wait
until conflicting lock go away. To avoid deadlocks we use simple
empiric which aborts waiting with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error if it
turns out that somebody is waiting for metadata locks owned by
this transaction.

This patch also fixes bug #46273 "MySQL 5.4.4 new MDL: Bug#989
is not fully fixed in case of ALTER".

The bug was that concurrent execution of UPDATE or MULTI-UPDATE
statement as a part of multi-statement transaction that already
has used table being updated and ALTER TABLE statement might have
resulted of loss of isolation between this transaction and ALTER
TABLE statement, which manifested itself as changes performed by
ALTER TABLE becoming visible in transaction and wrong binary log
order as a consequence.

This problem occurred when UPDATE or MULTI-UPDATE's wait in
mysql_lock_tables() call was aborted due to metadata lock
upgrade performed by concurrent ALTER TABLE. After such abort all
metadata locks held by transaction were released but transaction
silently continued to be executed as if nothing has happened.

We solve this problem by changing our code not to release all
locks in such case. Instead we release only locks which were
acquired by current statement and then try to reacquire them
by restarting open/lock tables process. We piggyback on simple
deadlock detector implementation since this change has to be
done anyway for it.

mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
  After introduction of basic deadlock detector for metadata locks
  it became necessary to change parts of test for HANDLER statements
  which covered some of scenarios in which ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error
  was detected in absence of real deadlock (with new deadlock detector
  this no longer happens).
  Also adjusted test to the fact that HANDLER READ for the table no
  longer will be blocked by ALTER TABLE for the same table which awaits
  for metadata lock upgrade (this is due to removal of mysql_lock_abort()
  from wait_while_table_is_used()).
mysql-test/r/handler_innodb.result:
  After introduction of basic deadlock detector for metadata locks
  it became necessary to change parts of test for HANDLER statements

sql/log_event_old.cc:
  close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
  specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
  locks acquired by this connection.
sql/mdl.cc:
  Changed metadata locking subsystem to support basic deadlock detection
  with a help of the following simple empiric -- we assume that there is
  a deadlock if there is a connection which has to wait for a metadata
  lock which is currently acquired by some connection which is itself
  waiting to be able to acquire some shared metadata lock.
  
  To implement this change:
  - Added MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/_impl() methods
    which allow to find out if there is someone waiting for metadata
    lock which is held by the connection and therefore deadlocks are
    possible if this connection is going to wait for some metadata lock.
    To do this added version of MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock()
    method which assumes that its caller already owns LOCK_mdl mutex.
  - Changed MDL_context::wait_for_locks() to use one of the above methods
    to check if somebody is waiting for metadata lock owned by this
    context (and therefore deadlock is possible) and emit ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
    error in this case. Also now we mark context of connections waiting
    inside of this method by setting MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl
    member. Thanks to this such connection could be waken up if some
    other connection starts waiting for one of its metadata locks and
    so a deadlock can occur.
  - Adjusted notify_shared_lock() to wake up connections which wait inside
    MDL_context::wait_for_locks() while holding shared metadata lock.
  - Changed MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive() to add
    temporary ticket for exclusive lock to MDL_lock::waiting queue, so
    request for metadata lock upgrade can be properly detected by our
    empiric.
    Also now this method invokes a callback which forces transactions
    holding shared metadata lock on the table to call MDL_context::
    can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() method even if they don't need any new
    metadata locks. Thanks to this such transactions can detect deadlocks/
    livelocks between MDL and table-level locks.
  
  Also reduced timeouts between calls to notify_shared_lock()
  in MDL_ticket::upgrade_shared_lock_to_exclusive() and
  MDL_context::acquire_exclusive_locks(). This was necessary
  to get rid of call to mysql_lock_abort() in wait_while_table_is_used().
  (Now we instead rely on notify_shared_lock() timely calling
  mysql_lock_abort_for_thread() for the table on which lock
  is being upgraded/acquired).
sql/mdl.h:
  - Added a version of MDL_ticket::has_pending_conflicting_lock() method
    to be used in situations when caller already has acquired LOCK_mdl
    mutex.
  - Added MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock()/_impl() methods
    which allow to find out if there is someone waiting for metadata lock
    which is held by this connection and thus deadlocks are possible if
    this connections will start waiting for some metadata lock.
  - Added MDL_context::m_is_waiting_in_mdl member to mark connections
    waiting in MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method of metadata locking
    subsystem. Added getter method for this private member to make it
    accessible in notify_shared_lock() auxiliary so we can wake-up such
    connections if they hold shared metadata locks.
  - Finally, added mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() callback
    to be able force transactions which don't need any new metadata
    locks still call MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() and detect
    some of deadlocks between metadata locks and table-level locks.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
  specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
  locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_base.cc:
  Changed approach to metadata locking for multi-statement transactions.
  We no longer fail ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error immediately when we encounter
  conflicting metadata lock. Instead we release all metadata locks
  acquired by current statement and start to wait until conflicting
  locks to go away by calling MDL_context::wait_for_locks() method.
  To avoid deadlocks the latter implements simple empiric which aborts
  waiting with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error if it turns out that somebody
  is waiting for metadata locks owned by this transaction.
  
  To implement the change described above:
  - Introduced Open_table_context::m_start_of_statement_svp member to
    store state of metadata locks at the start of the statement.
  - Changed Open_table_context::request_backoff_action() not to
    fail with ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK immediately if back-off is requested
    due to conflicting metadata lock.
  - Added new argument for close_tables_for_reopen() procedure which
    allows to specify subset of metadata locks to be released.
  - Changed open_tables() not to release all metadata locks acquired
    by current transaction when metadata lock conflict is discovered.
    Instead we release only locks acquired by current statement.
  - Changed open_ltable() and open_and_lock_tables_derived() not to emit
    ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error when mysql_lock_tables() is aborted in
    multi-statement transaction when somebody tries to acquire exclusive
    metadata lock on the table. Instead we release metadata locks acquired
    by current statement and try to wait until they can be re-acquired.
  - Adjusted tdc_wait_for_old_versions() to check if there is someone
    waiting for one of metadata locks held by this connection and run
    deadlock detection in order to avoid deadlocks in some
    situations.
  - Added mysql_abort_transactions_with_shared_lock() callback which
    allows to force transactions holding shared metadata lock on the
    table to call MDL_context::can_wait_lead_to_deadlock() even if they
    don't need any new metadata locks so they can detect potential
    deadlocks between metadata locking subsystem and table-level locks.
  - Adjusted wait_while_table_is_used() not to set TABLE::version to
    0 as it is now done only when necessary by the above-mentioned
    callback. Also removed unnecessary call to mysql_lock_abort().
    Instead we rely on code performing metadata lock upgrade aborting
    waits on the table-level lock for this table by calling
    mysql_lock_abort_for_thread() (invoked by
    mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock()). In future this should
    allow to reduce number of scenarios in which we produce
    ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error even though no real deadlock exists.
sql/sql_class.h:
  Introduced Open_table_context::m_start_of_statement_svp member to
  store state of metadata locks at the start of the statement.
  Replaced Open_table_context::m_can_deadlock member with m_has_locks
  member to reflect the fact that we no longer unconditionally emit
  ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK error for transaction having some metadata locks
  when conflicting metadata lock is discovered.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
  close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
  specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
  locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_plist.h:
  Made I_P_List_iterator<T, B> usable with const lists.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  close_tables_for_reopen() now takes one more argument which
  specifies at which point it should stop releasing metadata
  locks acquired by this connection.
sql/sql_update.cc:
  Changed UPDATE and MULTI-UPDATE code not to release all metadata
  locks when calls to mysql_lock_tables() are aborted. Instead we
  release only locks which are acquired by this statement and then
  try to reacquire them by calling open_tables(). This solves
  bug #46273 "MySQL 5.4.4 new MDL: Bug#989 is not fully fixed in
  case of ALTER".

Bug #48210 FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK deadlocks
           against concurrent CREATE PROCEDURE

This deadlock occured between
a) CREATE PROCEDURE (or other commands listed below)
b) FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK

If the execution of them happened in the following order:
- a) opens a table (e.g. mysql.proc)
- b) locks the global read lock (or GRL)
- a) sleeps inside wait_if_global_read_lock()
- b) increases refresh_version and sleeps waiting 
     for old tables to go away

Note that a) must start waiting on the GRL before FLUSH increases
refresh_version. Otherwise a) won't wait on the GRL and instead
close its tables for reopen, allowing FLUSH to complete and thus
avoid the deadlock.

With this patch the deadlock is avoided by making CREATE PROCEDURE
acquire a protection against global read locks before it starts
executing. This means that FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK will have
to wait until CREATE PROCEDURE completes before acquiring the global
read lock, thereby avoiding the deadlock.

This is implemented by introducing a new SQL command flag called
CF_PROTECT_AGAINST_GRL. Commands marked with this flag will
acquire a GRL protection in the beginning of mysql_execute_command().
This patch adds the flag to CREATE, ALTER and DROP for PROCEDURE
and FUNCTION, as well as CREATE USER, DROP USER, RENAME USER and 
REVOKE ALL. All these commands either call open_grant_tables() or
open_system_table_for_updated() which make them susceptible for
this deadlock.

The patch also adds the CF_PROTECT_AGAINST_GRL flag to a number
of commands that previously acquired GRL protection in their
respective SQLCOM case in mysql_execute_command().

Test case that checks for GRL protection for CREATE PROCEDURE
and CREATE USER added to mdl_sync.test.

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.

  Fix for bug #46673 "Deadlock between FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK and DML".

  Deadlocks occured when one concurrently executed transactions with
  several statements modifying data and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK
  statement or SET READ_ONLY=1 statement.

  These deadlocks were introduced by the patch for WL 4284: "Transactional
  DDL locking"/Bug 989: "If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction,
  wrong binlog order" which has changed FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK/SET
  READ_ONLY=1 to wait for pending transactions.
  What happened was that FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK blocked all further
  statements changing tables by setting global_read_lock global variable
  and has started waiting for all pending transactions to complete.
  Then one of those transactions tried to executed DML, detected that
  global_read_lock non-zero and tried to wait until global read lock will
  be released (i.e. global_read_lock becomes 0), indeed, this led to a
  deadlock.

  Proper solution for this problem should probably involve full integration
  of global read lock with metadata locking subsystem (which will allow to
  implement waiting for pending transactions without blocking DML in them).
  But since it requires significant changes another, short-term solution
  for the problem is implemented in this patch.

  Basically, this patch restores behavior of FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK/
  SET READ_ONLY=1 before the patch for WL 4284/bug 989. By ensuring that
  extra references to TABLE_SHARE are not stored for active metadata locks
  it changes these statements not to wait for pending transactions.
  As result deadlock is eliminated.
  Note that this does not change the fact that active FLUSH TABLES WITH
  READ LOCK lock or SET READ_ONLY=1 prevent modifications to tables as
  they also block transaction commits.

  Disable caching of pointers to TABLE_SHARE objects in MDL subsystem.
  This means that transactions holding metadata lock on the table will
  no longer have extra reference to the TABLE_SHARE (due to this lock)
  and will no longer block concurrent FLUSH TABLES/FLUSH TABLES WITH
  READ LOCK. Note that this does not change the fact that FLUSH TABLES
  WITH READ LOCK prevents concurrent transactions from modifying data
  as it also blocks all commits.

  Fix for bug #46044 "MDL deadlock on LOCK TABLE + CREATE TABLE HIGH_PRIORITY
  FOR UPDATE".

  Deadlock occured when during execution of query to I_S we tried to open
  a table or its .FRM in order to get information about it and had to wait
  because we have encountered exclusive metadata lock on this table held by
  a DDL operation from another connection which in its turn waited for some
  resource currently owned by connection executing this I_S query.
  For example, this might have happened if one under LOCK TABLES executed I_S
  query targeted to particular table (which was not among locked) and also
  concurrently tried to create this table using CREATE TABLE SELECT which
  had to wait for one of tables locked by the first connection.
  Another situation in which deadlock might have occured is when I_S query,
  which was executed as part of transaction, tried to get information about
  table which just has been dropped by concurrent DROP TABLES executed under
  LOCK TABLES and this DROP TABLES for its completion also had to wait
  transaction from the first connection.

  This problem stemmed from the fact that opening of tables/.FRMs for I_S
  filling is happening outside of connection's main MDL_context so code
  which tries to detect deadlocks due to conflicting metadata locks doesn't
  work in this case. Indeed, this led to deadlocks when during I_S filling
  we tried to wait for conflicting metadata lock to go away, while its owner
  was waiting for some resource held by connection executing I_S query.

  This patch solves this problem by avoiding waiting in such situation.
  Instead we skip this table and produce warning that information about
  it was omitted from I_S due to concurrent DDL operation. We still wait
  for conflicting metadata lock to go away when it is known that deadlock
  is not possible (i.e. when connection executing I_S query does not hold
  any metadata or table-level locks).
  Basically, we apply our standard deadlock avoidance technique for metadata
  locks to the process of filling of I_S tables but replace ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK
  error with a warning.
  Note that this change is supposed to be safe for 'mysqldump' since the
  only its mode which is affected by this change is --single-transaction mode
  is not safe in the presence of concurrent DDL anyway (and this fact is
  documented). Other modes are unaffected because they either use
  SHOW TABLES/SELECT * FROM I_S.TABLE_NAMES which do not take any metadata
  locks in the process of I_S table filling and thus cannot skip tables or
  execute I_S queries for tables which were previously locked by LOCK TABLES
  (or in the presence of global read lock) which excludes possibility of
  encountering conflicting metadata lock.

  these deadlocks we detect such situations and don't do waiting.

  thus omitting information about it from I_S table, and produce an
  appropriate warning.

  Concurrent execution of statements involving stored functions or triggers

  This fix ensures that close_tables_for_reopen(), which performs this back-off

Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking

This is a prerequisite patch:

These changes are intended to split lock requests from granted
locks and to allow the memory and lifetime of granted locks to
be managed within the MDL subsystem. Furthermore, tickets can
now be shared and therefore are used to satisfy multiple lock
requests, but only shared locks can be recursive.

The problem is that the MDL subsystem morphs lock requests into
granted locks locks but does not manage the memory and lifetime
of lock requests, and hence, does not manage the memory of
granted locks either. This can be problematic because it puts the
burden of tracking references on the users of the subsystem and
it can't be easily done in transactional contexts where the locks
have to be kept around for the duration of a transaction.

Another issue is that recursive locks (when the context trying to
acquire a lock already holds a lock on the same object) requires
that each time the lock is granted, a unique lock request/granted
lock structure structure must be kept around until the lock is
released. This can lead to memory leaks in transactional contexts
as locks taken during the transaction should only be released at
the end of the transaction. This also leads to unnecessary wake
ups (broadcasts) in the MDL subsystem if the context still holds
a equivalent of the lock being released.

These issues are exacerbated due to the fact that WL#4284 low-level
design says that the implementation should "2) Store metadata locks
in transaction memory root, rather than statement memory root" but
this is not possible because a memory root, as implemented in mysys,
requires all objects allocated from it to be freed all at once.

This patch combines review input and significant code contributions
from Konstantin Osipov (kostja) and Dmitri Lenev (dlenev).
