The setting innodb_safe_truncate=ON reduces compatibility with older
versions of MariaDB and backup tools in two ways.
First, we will be writing TRX_UNDO_RENAME_TABLE records, which older
versions do not know about. These records could be misinterpreted if
a DDL transaction was recovered and would be rolled back.
Such rollback is only possible if the server was killed while
an incomplete DDL transaction was persisted. On transaction completion,
the insert_undo log pages would only be repurposed for new undo log
allocations, and their contents would not matter. So, older versions
will not have a problem with innodb_safe_truncate=ON if the server was
shut down cleanly.
Second, to prevent such recovery failure, innodb_safe_truncate=ON will
cause a modification of the redo log format identifier, which will
prevent older versions from starting up after a crash. MariaDB Server
versions older than 10.2.13 will refuse to start up altogether, even
after clean shutdown.
A server restart with innodb_safe_truncate=OFF will restore compatibility
with older server and backup versions.
- Backported the MYSQL_SYSVAR_SIZE_T to 10.0
- The parameter innodb_ft_result_cache_limit was only 32 bits wide
also on 64-bit systems. Make it size_t, so that it will be 64 bits
on 64-bit systems.
- Added a test case that show how innodb_ft_result_cache_limit variables
behaves in 32bit and 64 bit system.
Rename the 10.2-specific configuration option innodb_unsafe_truncate
to innodb_safe_truncate, and invert its value.
The default (for now) is innodb_safe_truncate=OFF, to avoid
disrupting users with an undo and redo log format change within
a Generally Available (GA) release series.
While MariaDB Server 10.2 is not really guaranteed to be compatible
with Percona XtraBackup 2.4 (for example, the MySQL 5.7 undo log format
change that could be present in XtraBackup, but was reverted from
MariaDB in MDEV-12289), we do not want to disrupt users who have
deployed xtrabackup and MariaDB Server 10.2 in their environments.
With this change, MariaDB 10.2 will continue to use the backup-unsafe
TRUNCATE TABLE code, so that neither the undo log nor the redo log
formats will change in an incompatible way.
Undo tablespace truncation will keep using the redo log only. Recovery
or backup with old code will fail to shrink the undo tablespace files,
but the contents will be recovered just fine.
In the MariaDB Server 10.2 series only, we introduce the configuration
parameter innodb_unsafe_truncate and make it ON by default. To allow
MariaDB Backup (mariabackup) to work properly with TRUNCATE TABLE
operations, use loose_innodb_unsafe_truncate=OFF.
MariaDB Server 10.3.10 and later releases will always use the
backup-safe TRUNCATE TABLE, and this parameter will not be
added there.
recv_recovery_rollback_active(): Skip row_mysql_drop_garbage_tables()
unless innodb_unsafe_truncate=OFF. It is too unsafe to drop orphan
tables if RENAME operations are not transactional within InnoDB.
LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_10_3: Replaces LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT.
log_init(), log_group_file_header_flush(),
srv_prepare_to_delete_redo_log_files(),
innobase_start_or_create_for_mysql(): Choose the redo log format
and subformat based on the value of innodb_unsafe_truncate.
This patch introduces support for the system variable eq_range_index_dive_limit
that existed in MySQL starting from 5.6. The variable sets a limit for
index dives into equality ranges. Index dives are performed by optimizer
to estimate the number of rows in range scans. Index dives usually provide
good estimate but they are pretty expensive. To estimate the number of rows
in equality ranges statistical data on indexes can be employed. Its usage gives
not so good estimates but it's cheap. So if the number of equality dives
required by an index scan exceeds the set limit no dives for equality
ranges are performed by the optimizer for this index.
As the new system variable is introduced in a stable version the default
value for it is set to a special value meaning there is no limit for the number
of index dives performed by the optimizer.
The patch partially uses the MySQL code for WL 5957
'Statistics-based Range optimization for many ranges'.
This concludes the merge of all applicable InnoDB changes from
MySQL 5.7.23, with the exception of a performance fix, which we
plan to rewrite in MariaDB later in such a way that it does not
involve changing the storage engine API:
MDEV-16849 Extending indexed VARCHAR column should be instantaneous
Introduce the configuration option innodb_log_optimize_ddl
for controlling whether native index creation or table-rebuild
in InnoDB should keep optimizing the redo log
(and writing MLOG_INDEX_LOAD records to ensure that
concurrent backup would fail).
By default, we have innodb_log_optimize_ddl=ON, that is,
the default behaviour that was introduced in MariaDB 10.2.2
(with the merge of InnoDB from MySQL 5.7) will be unchanged.
BtrBulk::m_trx: Replaces m_trx_id. We must be able to check for
KILL QUERY even if !m_flush_observer (innodb_log_optimize_ddl=OFF).
page_cur_insert_rec_write_log(): Declare globally, so that this
can be called from PageBulk::insert().
row_merge_insert_index_tuples(): Remove the unused parameter trx_id.
row_merge_build_indexes(): Enable or disable redo logging based on
the innodb_log_optimize_ddl parameter.
PageBulk::init(), PageBulk::insert(), PageBulk::finish(): Write
redo log records if needed. For ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED, redo log
will be written in PageBulk::compress() unless we called
m_mtr.set_log_mode(MTR_LOG_NO_REDO).
The parameter innodb_lock_schedule_algorithm was introduced in
MariaDB Server 10.1.19, 10.2.13, 10.3.4 as part of MDEV-11039.
In MariaDB 10.1, the default value of the parameter is 'fcfs',
that is, the existing algorithm is used by default. But in
later versions of MariaDB Server, the parameter was 'vats',
enabling the new algorithm.
Because the new algorithm is triggering a debug assertion failure
that suggests corruption of the transactional lock data structures,
we will revert to the old algorithm by default until we have
resolved the problem.
The logic and the implementation scheme are similar with the
MDEV-9197 Pushdown conditions into non-mergeable views/derived tables
How the push down is made on the example:
select * from t1
where a>3 and b>10 and
(a,b) in (select x,max(y) from t2 group by x);
-->
select * from t1
where a>3 and b>10 and
(a,b) in (select x,max(y)
from t2
where x>3
group by x
having max(y)>10);
The implementation scheme:
1. Search for the condition cond that depends only on the fields
from the left part of the IN subquery (left_part)
2. Find fields F_group in the select of the right part of the
IN subquery (right_part) that are used in the GROUP BY
3. Extract from the cond condition cond_where that depends only on the
fields from the left_part that stay at the same places in the left_part
(have the same indexes) as the F_group fields in the projection of the
right_part
4. Transform cond_where so it can be pushed into the WHERE clause of the
right_part and delete cond_where from the cond
5. Transform cond so it can be pushed into the HAVING clause of the right_part
The optimization is made in the
Item_in_subselect::pushdown_cond_for_in_subquery() and is controlled by the
variable condition_pushdown_for_subquery.
New test file in_subq_cond_pushdown.test is created.
There are also some changes made for setup_jtbm_semi_joins().
Now it is decomposed into the 2 procedures: setup_degenerate_jtbm_semi_joins()
that is called before optimize_cond() for cond and setup_jtbm_semi_joins()
that is called after optimize_cond().
New setup_jtbm_semi_joins() is made in the way so that the result of its work is
the same as if it was called before optimize_cond().
The code that is common for pushdown into materialized derived and into materialized
IN subqueries is factored out into pushdown_cond_for_derived(),
Item_in_subselect::pushdown_cond_for_in_subquery() and
st_select_lex::pushdown_cond_into_where_clause().
Because the InnoDB implementation in MariaDB has diverged from MySQL,
it is not meaningful to report a MySQL version number for InnoDB
any more. Some examples include:
MariaDB 10.1 (which is based on MySQL 5.6) included encryption and
variable-size page compression before MySQL 5.7 introduced them.
MariaDB 10.2 (based on MySQL 5.7) introduced persistent AUTO_INCREMENT
(MDEV-6076) in a GA release before MySQL 8.0.
MariaDB 10.3 (based on MySQL 5.7) introduced instant ADD COLUMN
(MDEV-11369) before MySQL.
All of these features use a different implementation and file format.
Also, some features were never merged from MySQL 5.7, and thus MariaDB
is not affected by related bugs. Examples include CREATE TABLESPACE
and the reimplementation of the partitioning engine.
Introduced new alter algorithm type called NOCOPY & INSTANT for
inplace alter operation.
NOCOPY - Algorithm refuses any alter operation that would
rebuild the clustered index. It is a subset of INPLACE algorithm.
INSTANT - Algorithm allow any alter operation that would
modify only meta data. It is a subset of NOCOPY algorithm.
Introduce new variable called alter_algorithm. The values are
DEFAULT(0), COPY(1), INPLACE(2), NOCOPY(3), INSTANT(4)
Message to deprecate old_alter_table variable and make it alias
for alter_algorithm variable.
alter_algorithm variable for slave is always set to default.
Added --skip-test-db option to mysql_install_db. If specified, no test
database created and relevant grants issued.
Removed --skip-auth-anonymous-user option of mysql_install_db. Now it is
covered by --skip-test-db.
Dropped some Debian patches that did the same.
Removed unused make_win_bin_dist.1, make_win_bin_dist and
mysql_install_db.pl.in.
Bind more InnoDB parameters directly to MYSQL_SYSVAR and
remove "shadow variables".
innodb_change_buffering: Declare as ENUM, not STRING.
innodb_flush_method: Declare as ENUM, not STRING.
innodb_log_buffer_size: Bind directly to srv_log_buffer_size,
without rounding it to a multiple of innodb_page_size.
LOG_BUFFER_SIZE: Remove.
SysTablespace::normalize_size(): Renamed from normalize().
innodb_init_params(): A new function to initialize and validate
InnoDB startup parameters.
innodb_init(): Renamed from innobase_init(). Invoke innodb_init_params()
before actually trying to start up InnoDB.
srv_start(bool): Renamed from innobase_start_or_create_for_mysql().
Added the input parameter create_new_db.
SRV_ALL_O_DIRECT_FSYNC: Define only for _WIN32.
xb_normalize_init_values(): Merge to innodb_init_param().
