Bug #55755 : Date STD variable signness breaks server on FreeBSD and OpenBSD
* Added a check to configure on the size of time_t
* Created a macro to check for a valid time_t that is safe to use with datetime
functions and store in TIMESTAMP columns.
* Used the macro consistently instead of the ad-hoc checks introduced by 52315
* Fixed compliation warnings on platforms where the size of time_t is smaller than
the size of a long (e.g. OpenBSD 4.8 64 amd64).
Bug #52315: utc_date() crashes when system time > year 2037
* Added a correct check for the timestamp range instead of just variable size check to
SET TIMESTAMP.
* Added overflow checking before converting to time_t.
* Using a correct localized error message in this case instead of the generic error.
* Added a test suite.
* fixed the checks so that they check for unsigned time_t as well. Used the checks
consistently across the source code.
* fixed the original test case to expect the new error code.
After fix of bug#25192, load_defaults() will add an args separator
to distinguish options loaded from configure files from that provided
in the command line. One problem of this is that the args separator
would be added no matter the application need it or not.
Fixed the problem by adding an option:
bool my_getopt_use_args_separator;
to control whether the separator will be added or not. And also
added functions:
bool my_getopt_is_args_separator(const char* arg);
to check if the argument is the separator or not.

The problem is a race between a session closing its vio
(i.e. after a COM_QUIT) at the same time it is being killed by
another thread. This could trigger a assertion in vio_close()
as the two threads could end up closing the same vio, at the
same time. This could happen due to the implementation of
SIGNAL_WITH_VIO_CLOSE, which closes the vio of the thread
being killed.
The solution is to serialize the close of the Vio under
LOCK_thd_data, which protects THD data.
No regression test is added as this is essentially a debug
issue and the test case would be quite convoluted as we would
need to synchronize a session that is being killed -- which
is a bit difficult since debug sync points code does not
synchronize killed sessions.

when generating new name.
If find_uniq_filename returns an error, then this error is not
being propagated upwards, and execution does not report error to
the user (although a entry in the error log is generated).
Additionally, some more errors were ignored in new_file_impl:
- when writing the rotate event
- when reopening the index and binary log file
This patch addresses this by propagating the error up in the
execution stack. Furthermore, when rotation of the binary log
fails, an incident event is written, because there may be a
chance that some changes for a given statement, were not properly
logged. For example, in SBR, LOAD DATA INFILE statement requires
more than one event to be logged, should rotation fail while
logging part of the LOAD DATA events, then the logged data would
become inconsistent with the data in the storage engine.
The problem is that the logic which checks if a pointer is
valid relies on a poor heuristic based on the start and end
addresses of the data segment and heap.
Apart from miscalculating the heap bounds, this approach also
suffers from the fact that memory can come from places other
than the heap. See Bug#58528 for a more detailed explanation.
On Linux, the solution is to access the process's memory
through /proc/self/task/<tid>/mem, which allows for retrieving
the contents of pages within the virtual address space of
the calling process. If a address range is not mapped, a
input/output error is returned.
Before this fix, an assert could fail in PFS_lock::allocated_to_free(), during shutdown.
The assert itself is valid, and detects an anomaly caused by bug 56666.
While bug 56666 has no real consequences in production,
the failure caused by this new assert in the code is negatively
impacting the test suite with automated tests.
This fix is a work around only, that relaxes the integrity checks
during the server shutdown.

Before this fix, file io for the binary log file was not accounted properly,
and showed no io at all.
This bug was due to the following issues:
1) file io for the binlog was instrumented:
- sometime as "wait/io/file/sql/binlog"
- sometime as "wait/io/file/sql/MYSQL_LOG"
leading to inconsistent event_names.
2) the binlog file itself was using an IO_CACHE,
but the IO_CACHE implementation in mysys/mf_iocache.c was
not instrumented to make performance schema calls to record file io.
3) The "wait/io/file/sql/MYSQL_LOG" instrumentation was used
for several log files, such as:
- the binary log
- the slow log
- the query log
which caused file io in these different log files to be accounted
against the same instrument.
The instrumentation needs to have a finer grain and report io
in different event_names, because each file really serves a different purpose.
With this fix:
- the IO_CACHE implementation is now instrumented
- the "wait/io/file/sql/MYSQL_LOG" instrument has been removed
- binlog io is now always instrumented with "wait/io/file/sql/binlog"
- the slow log is instrumented with a new name, "wait/io/file/sql/slow_log"
- the query log is instrumented with a new name, "wait/io/file/sql/query_log"
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.
The problem was that the scheduler function used to handle a
new user connection could use the ER() macro without having a
THD object bound to the current thread. The crash would happen
whenever the function failed to create a new thread to handle a
user connection. Thread creation can fail due to lack or limit
of available resources.
The solution is to simply use the ER_THD() macro instead and pass
to it the THD object which would be bound to the connection.
Fix was tested manually. In a test case, it is too cumbersome to
inject a error in this context.
Quoting from the bug report:
The pstack library has been included in MySQL since version
4.0.0. It's useless and should be removed.
Details: According to its own documentation, pstack only works
on Linux on x86 in 32 bit mode and requires LinuxThreads and a
statically linked binary. It doesn't really support any Linux
from 2003 or later and doesn't work on any other OS.
The --enable-pstack option is thus deprecated and has no effect.
After the WL#2687, the binlog_cache_size and max_binlog_cache_size affect both the
stmt-cache and the trx-cache. This means that the resource used is twice the amount
expected/defined by the user.
The binlog_cache_use is incremented when the stmt-cache or the trx-cache is used
and binlog_cache_disk_use is incremented when the disk space from the stmt-cache or the
trx-cache is used. This behavior does not allow to distinguish which cache may be harming
performance due to the extra disk accesses and needs to have its in-memory cache
increased.
To fix the problem, we introduced two new options and status variables related to the
stmt-cache:
Options:
. binlog_stmt_cache_size
. max_binlog_stmt_cache_size
Status Variables:
. binlog_stmt_cache_use
. binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use
So there are
. binlog_cache_size that defines the size of the transactional cache for
updates to transactional engines for the binary log.
. binlog_stmt_cache_size that defines the size of the statement cache for
updates to non-transactional engines for the binary log.
. max_binlog_cache_size that sets the total size of the transactional
cache.
. max_binlog_stmt_cache_size that sets the total size of the statement
cache.
. binlog_cache_use that identifies the number of transactions that used the
temporary transactional binary log cache.
. binlog_cache_disk_use that identifies the number of transactions that used
the temporary transactional binary log cache but that exceeded the value of
binlog_cache_size.
. binlog_stmt_cache_use that identifies the number of statements that used the
temporary non-transactional binary log cache.
. binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use that identifies the number of statements that used
the temporary non-transactional binary log cache but that exceeded the value of
binlog_stmt_cache_size.
Function delegetas_init() did not report proper error messages
when there are failures, which made it hard to know where the problem
occurred.
Fixed the problem by adding specific error message for every possible
place that can fail. And since these failures are supposed to never
happen, ask the user to report a bug if they happened.
now do no initializations for the --help.
Do it for --verbose --help though.

The fix is to:
- introduce ORACLE_WELCOME_COPYRIGHT_NOTICE define to have a single place
to specify copyright notice;
- replace custom copyright notices with ORACLE_WELCOME_COPYRIGHT_NOTICE

Before this fix, the server could crash during shutdown,
due to race conditions, that occured when killing the server.
In particular, the performance schema instrumentation handle,
PSI_server, and the performance schema itself would be cleaned up
too soon, causing race conditions with a running kill server thread.
The specifics of the race condition found are that:
the main thread executing "PSI_server= NULL" can cause crashes in
other threads still running, which are executing
"if (PSI_server != NULL) PSI_server->xxx()"
as part of the performance schema instrumentation.
While the bug was reported for the kill server thread,
in theory the same crash could happen with the signal thread,
as found by code analysis.
The correct fix would be to only shutdown the performance schema
and set PSI_server to NULL after every other thread is guaranteed
to be completed, including the kill_server_thread.
However, due to the existing mysqld server design, this is not the case.
See in particular bug number 56666.
The work around used to fix this race condition is to simply not
perform the call to shutdown_performance_schema() when the server exits,
and to keep the PSI_server pointer unchanged.
This will cause memory leaks to be reported by tools like valgrind,
but no memory leak actually happen because the process is about to exit().
As a result, the file mysql-test/valgrind.supp has been updated
to filter out these false positive messages.
This code has been tested with running in a loop the following
tests in parallel, which have been known to fail with race conditions
in the past:
- rpl_change_master
- binlog_max_extension
- events_restart
- rpl_heartbeat_basic
and no crash of test failure has been seen with the changed code.
thread-specific variables weren't set when we load error message files.

updated internally, for never exposed as a system variable.
This fix exposes the system variable as "Handler_read_last",
for completness of the Handler_read_* system variables interface.
Adjusted tests results accordingly.
temp table
This patch introduces two key changes in the replication's behavior.
Firstly, it reverts part of BUG#51894 which puts any update to temporary tables
into the trx-cache. Now, updates to temporary tables are handled according to
the type of their engines as a regular table.
Secondly, an unsafe mixed statement, (i.e. a statement that access transactional
table as well non-transactional or temporary table, and writes to any of them),
are written into the trx-cache in order to minimize errors in the execution when
the statement logging format is in use.
Such changes has a direct impact on which statements are classified as unsafe
statements and thus part of BUG#53259 is reverted.
