Three-way deadlock:
T1: SHOW GLOBAL STATUS
-> acquire LOCK_status
T2: STOP SLAVE
-> acquire LOCK_active_mi
-> terminate_slave_thread()
-> -> cond_timedwait for handle_slave_sql to stop
T3: sql slave thread (same applies to io thread)
-> handle_slave_sql(), when exiting
-> -> THD::add_status_to_global()
-> -> -> wait for LOCK_status...
T1: SHOW GLOBAL STATUS
-> for "Slave_heartbeat_period" status variable
-> -> show_heartbeat_period()
-> -> -> wait for LOCK_active_mi

BUG#16904035-SHOW STATUS - EXCESSIVE LOCKING ON LOCK_ACTIVE_MI AND
ACTIVE_MI->RLI->DATA_LOCK
Problem: Excessive locking on lock_active_mi and rli->data_lock
while executing any `show status like 'X'` command.
Analysis: SHOW_FUNCs for Slave_running, Slave_retried_transactions,
Slave_heartbeat_period, Slave_received_heartbeats,
Slave_last_heartbeat are acquiring lock_active_mi and rli->data_lock
to show their variable value. It is ok to show stale data while showing
the status variables i.e., even if they miss one update, it will
not cause any great trouble.
Fix: Remove the locks from the above mentioned SHOW_FUNC functions.
Add a test case
In versions 5.5 and 5.6 the MySQL version is not logged until
server is started and ready to accept connections. Exiting
server before this point will not have server version information
in the log. But in 5.7 code, we log a server version information
just after we prepare server_version string and logging is initialized.
For 5.5 and 5.6 code also adding this code to print server version
information.
Test results:
================
5.5

Server version will be logged as below on server startup:
141218 8:45:48 [Note] /home/praveen/WorkDir/mysql_local/bug20052694/mysql/sql/mysqld (mysqld 5.5.42-debug-log) starting as process 19697 ...

Description:
THREAD_CONCURRENCY is deprecated and there is no
deprecation warning message while setting this variable
while starting the server.
Analysis:
This variable is specific to Solaris 8 and earlier systems
and is ignored on all other platforms. But since many
customers, who uses other than Solaris, still has this
variable in their configuration file, it is important to
have a deprecation warning.
Fix:
THREAD_CONCURRENCY deprecation warning message is added.

SHOW PROCESSLIST, SHOW BINLOGS
Problem: A deadlock was occurring when 4 threads were
involved in acquiring locks in the following way
Thread 1: Dump thread ( Slave is reconnecting, so on
Master, a new dump thread is trying kill
zombie dump threads. It acquired thread's
LOCK_thd_data and it is about to acquire
mysys_var->current_mutex ( which LOCK_log)
Thread 2: Application thread is executing show binlogs and
acquired LOCK_log and it is about to acquire
LOCK_index.
Thread 3: Application thread is executing Purge binary logs
and acquired LOCK_index and it is about to
acquire LOCK_thread_count.
Thread 4: Application thread is executing show processlist
and acquired LOCK_thread_count and it is
about to acquire zombie dump thread's
LOCK_thd_data.
Deadlock Cycle:
Thread 1 -> Thread 2 -> Thread 3-> Thread 4 ->Thread 1
The same above deadlock was observed even when thread 4 is
executing 'SELECT * FROM information_schema.processlist' command and
acquired LOCK_thread_count and it is about to acquire zombie
dump thread's LOCK_thd_data.
Analysis:
There are four locks involved in the deadlock. LOCK_log,
LOCK_thread_count, LOCK_index and LOCK_thd_data.
LOCK_log, LOCK_thread_count, LOCK_index are global mutexes
where as LOCK_thd_data is local to a thread.
We can divide these four locks in two groups.
Group 1 consists of LOCK_log and LOCK_index and the order
should be LOCK_log followed by LOCK_index.
Group 2 consists of other two mutexes
LOCK_thread_count, LOCK_thd_data and the order should
be LOCK_thread_count followed by LOCK_thd_data.
Unfortunately, there is no specific predefined lock order defined
to follow in the MySQL system when it comes to locks across these
two groups. In the above problematic example,
there is no problem in the way we are acquiring the locks
if you see each thread individually.
But If you combine all 4 threads, they end up in a deadlock.
Fix:
Since everything seems to be fine in the way threads are taking locks,
In this patch We are changing the duration of the locks in Thread 4
to break the deadlock. i.e., before the patch, Thread 4
('show processlist' command) mysqld_list_processes()
function acquires LOCK_thread_count for the complete duration
of the function and it also acquires/releases
each thread's LOCK_thd_data.
LOCK_thread_count is used to protect addition and
deletion of threads in global threads list. While show
process list is looping through all the existing threads,
it will be a problem if a thread is exited but there is no problem
if a new thread is added to the system. Hence a new mutex is
introduced "LOCK_thd_remove" which will protect deletion
of a thread from global threads list. All threads which are
getting exited should acquire LOCK_thd_remove
followed by LOCK_thread_count. (It should take LOCK_thread_count
also because other places of the code still thinks that exit thread
is protected with LOCK_thread_count. In this fix, we are changing
only 'show process list' query logic )
(Eg: unlink_thd logic will be protected with
LOCK_thd_remove).
Logic of mysqld_list_processes(or file_schema_processlist)
will now be protected with 'LOCK_thd_remove' instead of
'LOCK_thread_count'.
Now the new locking order after this patch is:
LOCK_thd_remove -> LOCK_thd_data -> LOCK_log ->
LOCK_index -> LOCK_thread_count

Reason for the bug was an optimization for higher connect speed where we moved when global status was updated,
but forgot to update states when slave thread dies.
Fixed by adding thd->add_status_to_global() before deleting slave thread's thd.
mysys/my_delete.c:
Added missing newline
sql/mysqld.cc:
Use add_status_to_global()
sql/slave.cc:
Added missing add_status_to_global()
sql/sql_class.cc:
Use add_status_to_global()
sql/sql_class.h:
Simplify adding local status to global by adding add_status_to_global()
Pre-MDL versions had direct relationship between LOCK_open and
LOCK_global_system_variables, e.g.:
intern_sys_var_ptr // locks LOCK_global_system_variable
mysql_sys_var_char
create_options_are_valid
ha_innobase::create
handler::ha_create
ha_create_table
rea_create_table
mysql_create_table_no_lock // locks LOCK_open
mysql_create_table
With MDL this relationship was removed, but mutex order was still
recorded. In fact there is indirect relationship between LOCK_open
and LOCK_global_system_variables via rwlocks in reverse order.
Removed LOCK_open and LOCK_global_system_variables order recording,
instead assert that LOCK_open is never held in intern_sys_var_ptr().
This solves only one of many problems detected with MDEV-5089.
Plugins get error notifications only when my_message_sql() is called.
But errors are launched with THD::raise_condition() calls in other
places. These are push_warning(), implementations of SIGNAL and
RESIGNAL commands.
So it makes sence to notify plugins there in THD::raise_condition().
Analysis
--------
Running 'MYSQLD --help --verbose' as ROOT user without
using '--user' option displays the help contents but
aborts at the end with an exit code '1'.
While starting the server, a validation is performed to
ensure when the server is started as root user, it should
be done using '--user' option. Else we abort. In case
of help, we dump the help contents and abort.
Fix:
---
During the validation, we skip aborting the server incase
we are using the help option under the condition mentioned
above.
NOTE: Test case has not been added since it requires using
'root' user.

MySQL bug http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=61713 was fixed in 5.5
Fix is to remove check for multiple entries returned by getaddrinfo(), and use the first entry that works - i.e socket can be created.
Unlike Oracle/MySQL's fix ,this one is kept minimal :
- we do not prioritize IPv4 over IPv6, orr other way around, and just rely on operating system to sort getaddrinfo() entries in sensible order. There is RFC that defines what is sensible order for getaddrinfo entries ( RFC 3484), and OS specific tweaks are also possible , like /etc/gai.conf o Linux.
- also, we do not force "0.0.0.0" address if bind-address is not given - this would be a change in behavior of 5.5 at least on Windows, where passing NULL as to getaddrinfo() gives back IPv6-wildcard.
