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. |

This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it. Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not conflict with it. All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the problem: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-test-suite.html If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests, use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode, the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run. For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests with an external server: mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and other relevant options. With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some tests cannot run with an external server. You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test extension. For example: xemacs t/test_case_name.test In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables, load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it. We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not conflict too much with existing tables). Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and end by dropping them again. This ensures that you can run the test over and over again. If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your test case, you should create the result file as follows: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name or mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify that the bug is corrected in future releases. To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail to bugs@lists.mysql.com
