A number of tests often trip warnings on Valgrind, because Valgrind
runs all threads in a single thread and may cause starvation:
InnoDB: A long wait (... seconds) was observed for dict_sys.latch
Let us disable those tests on Valgrind in order to avoid bogus failures.
During data file creation, InnoDB holds dict_sys mutex, tries to
write page 0 of the file and flushes the file. This not only causing
unnecessary contention but also a deviation from the write-ahead
logging protocol.
The clean sequence of operations is that we first start a dictionary
transaction and write SYS_TABLES and SYS_INDEXES records that identify
the tablespace. Then, we durably write a FILE_CREATE record to the
write-ahead log and create the file.
Recovery should not unnecessarily insist that the first page of each
data file that is referred to by the redo log is valid. It must be
enough that page 0 of the tablespace can be initialized based on the
redo log contents.
We introduce a new data structure deferred_spaces that keeps track
of corrupted-looking files during recovery. The data structure holds
the last LSN of a FILE_ record referring to the data file, the
tablespace identifier, and the last known file name.
There are two scenarios can happen during recovery:
i) Sufficient memory: InnoDB can reconstruct the
tablespace after parsing all redo log records.
ii) Insufficient memory(multiple apply phase): InnoDB should
store the deferred tablespace redo logs even though
tablespace is not present. InnoDB should start constructing
the tablespace when it first encounters deferred tablespace
id.
Mariabackup copies the zero filled ibd file in backup_fix_ddl() as
the extension of .new file. Mariabackup test case does page flushing
when it deals with DDL operation during backup operation.
fil_ibd_create(): Remove the write of page0 and flushing of file
fil_ibd_load(): Return FIL_LOAD_DEFER if the tablespace has
zero filled page0
Datafile: Clean up the error handling, and do not report errors
if we are in the middle of recovery. The caller will check
Datafile::m_defer.
fil_node_t::deferred: Indicates whether the tablespace loading was
deferred during recovery
FIL_LOAD_DEFER: Returned by fil_ibd_load() to indicate that tablespace
file was cannot be loaded.
recv_sys_t::recover_deferred(): Invoke deferred_spaces.create() to
initialize fil_space_t based on buffered metadata and records to
initialize page 0. Ignore the flags in fil_name_t, because they are
intentionally invalid.
fil_name_process(): Update deferred_spaces.
recv_sys_t::parse(): Store the redo log if the tablespace id
is present in deferred spaces
recv_sys_t::recover_low(): Should recover the first page of
the tablespace even though the tablespace instance is not
present
recv_sys_t::apply(): Initialize the deferred tablespace
before applying the deferred tablespace records
recv_validate_tablespace(): Skip the validation for deferred_spaces.
recv_rename_files(): Moved and revised from recv_sys_t::apply().
For deferred-recovery tablespaces, do not attempt to rename the
file if a deferred-recovery tablespace is associated with the name.
recv_recovery_from_checkpoint_start(): Invoke recv_rename_files()
and initialize all deferred tablespaces before applying redo log.
fil_node_t::read_page0(): Skip page0 validation if the tablespace
is deferred
buf_page_create_deferred(): A variant of buf_page_create() when
the fil_space_t is not available yet
This is joint work with Thirunarayanan Balathandayuthapani,
who implemented an initial prototype.
The test fails because it reuses mysqltest perl code to copy directory
tree, and this code contains Windows-specific piece which outputs some
diagnostic information.
The patch introduces new parameter for that Windows-specific perl code to
have the ability to suppress diagnostic output on the corresponding
mysqltest perl module initialization.
The general reason why innodb redo log file is limited by 512G is that
log_block_convert_lsn_to_no() returns value limited by 1G. But there is no
need to have unique log block numbers in log group. The fix removes 512G
limit and limits log group size by
(uint32_t maximum value) * (minimum page size), which, in turns, can be
removed if fil_io() is no longer used for innodb redo log io.
