Dmitry Lenev 65a438d87a Fix for bug #55273 "FLUSH TABLE tm WITH READ LOCK for Merge
table causes assert failure".

Attempting to use FLUSH TABLE table_list WITH READ LOCK
statement for a MERGE table led to an assertion failure if
one of its children was not present in the list of tables
to be flushed. The problem was not visible in non-debug builds.

The assertion failure was caused by the fact that in such
situations FLUSH TABLES table_list WITH READ LOCK implementation
tried to use (e.g. lock) such child tables without acquiring
metadata lock on them. This happened because when opening tables
we assumed metadata locks on all tables were already acquired
earlier during statement execution and a such assumption was
false for MERGE children.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring at open_tables() time
that we try to acquire metadata locks on all tables to be opened. 
For normal tables such requests are satisfied instantly since
locks are already acquired for them. For MERGE children metadata
locks are acquired in normal fashion.

Note that FLUSH TABLES merge_table WITH READ LOCK will lock for
read both the MERGE table and its children but will flush only 
the MERGE table. To flush children one has to mention them in table
list explicitly. This is expected behavior and it is consistent with
usage patterns for this statement (e.g. in mysqlhotcopy script).

mysql-test/r/flush.result:
  Added test case for bug #55273 "FLUSH TABLE tm WITH READ LOCK
  for Merge table causes assert failure".
mysql-test/t/flush.test:
  Added test case for bug #55273 "FLUSH TABLE tm WITH READ LOCK
  for Merge table causes assert failure".
sql/sql_base.cc:
  Changed lock_table_names() to support newly introduced
  MYSQL_OPEN_SKIP_SCOPED_MDL_LOCK flag.
sql/sql_base.h:
  Introduced MYSQL_OPEN_SKIP_SCOPED_MDL_LOCK flag for
  open_tables() and lock_table_names() which allows to skip
  acquiring of global and schema-scope locks when SNW, SNRW or
  X metadata locks are acquired.
sql/sql_reload.cc:
  Changed "FLUSH TABLES table_list WITH READ LOCK" code not to
  cause assert about missing metadata locks when MERGE table is
  flushed without one of its underlying tables.
  To achieve this we no longer call open_and_lock_tables() with
  MYSQL_OPEN_HAS_MDL_LOCK flag so this function automatically
  acquires metadata locks on MERGE children if such lock has
  not been already acquired at earlier stage. Instead we call
  this function with MYSQL_OPEN_SKIP_SCOPED_MDL_LOCK flag to
  suppress acquiring of global IX lock in order to keep FLUSH
  TABLES  table_list WITH READ LOCK compatible with FLUSH TABLE
  WITH READ LOCK.
  Also changed implementation to use lock_table_names() function
  for pre-acquiring of metadata locks instead of custom code.
  To implement this change moved setting of open_type member for
  table list elements to parser.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
  Now we set acceptable type of table for FLUSH TABLES table_list
  WITH READ LOCK at parsing time instead of execution time.

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
