Vlad Lesin 985ede9203 MDEV-20755 InnoDB: Database page corruption on disk or a failed file read of tablespace upon prepare of mariabackup incremental backup
The problem:

When incremental backup is taken, delta files are created for innodb tables
which are marked as new tables during innodb ddl tracking. When such
tablespace is tried to be opened during prepare in
xb_delta_open_matching_space(), it is "created", i.e.
xb_space_create_file() is invoked, instead of opening, even if
a tablespace with the same name exists in the base backup directory.

xb_space_create_file() writes page 0 header the tablespace.
This header does not contain crypt data, as mariabackup does not have
any information about crypt data in delta file metadata for
tablespaces.

After delta file is applied, recovery process is started. As the
sequence of recovery for different pages is not defined, there can be
the situation when crypt data redo log event is executed after some
other page is read for recovery. When some page is read for recovery, it's
decrypted using crypt data stored in tablespace header in page 0, if
there is no crypt data, the page is not decryped and does not pass corruption
test.

This causes error for incremental backup --prepare for encrypted
tablespaces.

The error is not stable because crypt data redo log event updates crypt
data on page 0, and recovery for different pages can be executed in
undefined order.

The fix:

When delta file is created, the corresponding write filter copies only
the pages which LSN is greater then some incremental LSN. When new file
is created during incremental backup, the LSN of all it's pages must be
greater then incremental LSN, so there is no need to create delta for
such table, we can just copy it completely.

The fix is to copy the whole file which was tracked during incremental backup
with innodb ddl tracker, and copy it to base directory during --prepare
instead of delta applying.

There is also DBUG_EXECUTE_IF() in innodb code to avoid writing redo log
record for crypt data updating on page 0 to make the test case stable.

Note:

The issue is not reproducible in 10.5 as optimized DDL's are deprecated
in 10.5. But the fix is still useful because it allows to decrease
data copy size during backup, as delta file contains some extra info.
The test case should be removed for 10.5 as it will always pass.

This directory contains test suites for the MariaDB server. To run
currently existing test cases, execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory.

Some tests are known to fail on some platforms or be otherwise unreliable.
The file "unstable-tests" contains the list of such tests along with
a comment for every test.
To exclude them from the test run, execute
  # ./mysql-test-run --skip-test-list=unstable-tests

In general you do not have to have to do "make install", and you can have
a co-existing MariaDB installation, the tests will not conflict with it.
To run the tests in a source directory, you must do "make" first.

In Red Hat distributions, you should run the script as user "mysql".
The user is created with nologin shell, so the best bet is something like
  # su -
  # cd /usr/share/mysql-test
  # su -s /bin/bash mysql -c "./mysql-test-run --skip-test-list=unstable-tests"

This will use the installed MariaDB executables, but will run a private
copy of the server process (using data files within /usr/share/mysql-test),
so you need not start the mysqld service beforehand.

You can omit --skip-test-list option if you want to check whether
the listed failures occur for you.

To clean up afterwards, remove the created "var" subdirectory, e.g.
  # su -s /bin/bash - mysql -c "rm -rf /usr/share/mysql-test/var"

If one or more tests fail on your system on reasons other than listed
in lists of unstable tests, please read the following manual section
for instructions on how to report the problem:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/reporting-bugs

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,
you are expected to provide 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 socket=/tmp/mysql.sock alias analyze

To match your setup, you might need to provide other relevant options.

With no test names on the command line, mysql-test-run will attempt
to execute the default set of tests, which will certainly fail, because
many tests cannot run with an external server (they need to control the
options with which the server is started, restart the server during
execution, etc.)

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.

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 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 case consisting of SQL statements and
comments, you can create the result file 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 --database test --result-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.

If you want to submit your test case you can send it 
to maria-developers@lists.launchpad.net or attach it to a bug report on
http://mariadb.org/jira/.

If the test case is really big or if it contains 'not public' data,
then 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://ftp.askmonty.org/private and submit a report to
http://mariadb.org/jira about it.
