Some fixes related to commit f838b2d799 and
Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() and Update_rows_log_event::do_exec_row()
for system-versioned tables were provided by Nikita Malyavin.
This was required by test versioning.rpl,trx_id,row.
By design, InnoDB has always hung when permanently running out of
buffer pool, for example when several threads are waiting to allocate
a block, and all of the buffer pool is buffer-fixed by the active threads.
The hang that we are fixing here occurs when the buffer pool is only
temporarily running out and the situation could be rescued by writing out
some dirty pages or evicting some clean pages.
buf_LRU_get_free_block(): Simplify the way how we wait for
the buf_flush_page_cleaner thread. This fixes occasional hangs
of the test encryption.innochecksum that were introduced by
commit a55b951e60 (MDEV-26827).
To play it safe, we use a timed wait when waiting for the
buf_flush_page_cleaner() thread to perform its job. Should that
thread get stuck, we will invoke buf_pool.LRU_warn() in order to
display a message that pages could not be freed, and keep trying
to wake up the buf_flush_page_cleaner() thread.
The INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counters
buffer_LRU_single_flush_failure_count and
buffer_LRU_get_free_waits will be removed.
The latter is represented by buffer_pool_wait_free.
Also removed will be the message
"InnoDB: Difficult to find free blocks in the buffer pool"
because in d34479dc66 we
introduced a more precise message
"InnoDB: Could not free any blocks in the buffer pool"
in the buf_flush_page_cleaner thread.
buf_pool_t::LRU_warn(): Issue the warning message that we could
not free any blocks in the buffer pool. This may also be invoked
by buf_LRU_get_free_block() if buf_flush_page_cleaner() appears
to be stuck.
buf_pool_t::n_flush_dec(): Remove.
buf_pool_t::n_flush_dec_holding_mutex(): Rename to n_flush_dec().
buf_flush_LRU_list_batch(): Increment the eviction counter for blocks
of temporary, discarded or dropped tablespaces.
buf_flush_LRU(): Make static, and remove the constant parameter
evict=false. The only caller will be the buf_flush_page_cleaner()
thread.
IORequest::is_LRU(): Remove. The only case of evicting pages on
write completion will be when we are writing out pages of the
temporary tablespace. Those pages are not in buf_pool.flush_list,
only in buf_pool.LRU.
buf_page_t::flush(): Remove the parameter evict.
buf_page_t::write_complete(): Change the parameter "bool temporary"
to "bool persistent" and add a parameter for an already read state().

innodb_monitor_validate(): Let item_val_str() allocate the memory
in THD, so that it will be available to innodb_monitor_update().
In this way, there is no need to allocate another buffer, and
no problem if the call to innodb_monitor_update() is skipped due
to an invalid value that is passed to another configuration parameter.
There are some other callers to st_mysql_sys_var::val_str()
that validate configuration parameters that are related to FULLTEXT INDEX,
but they will allocate memory by invoking thd_strmake().
The purpose of the change buffer was to reduce random disk access,
which could be useful on rotational storage, but maybe less so on
solid-state storage.
When we wished to
(1) insert a record into a non-unique secondary index,
(2) delete-mark a secondary index record,
(3) delete a secondary index record as part of purge (but not ROLLBACK),
and the B-tree leaf page where the record belongs to is not in the buffer
pool, we inserted a record into the change buffer B-tree, indexed by
the page identifier. When the page was eventually read into the buffer
pool, we looked up the change buffer B-tree for any modifications to the
page, applied these upon the completion of the read operation. This
was called the insert buffer merge.
We remove the change buffer, because it has been the source of
various hard-to-reproduce corruption bugs, including those fixed in
commit 5b9ee8d819 and
commit 165564d3c3 but not limited to them.

Tested by: Matthias Leich
The MDEV-25004 test innodb_fts.versioning is omitted because ever since
commit 685d958e38 InnoDB would not allow
writes to a database where the redo log file ib_logfile0 is missing.
Before the fix next-key lock was requested only if a record was
delete-marked for locking unique search in RR isolation level.
There can be several delete-marked records for the same unique key,
that's why InnoDB scans the records until eighter non-delete-marked record
is reached or all delete-marked records with the same unique key are
scanned.
For range scan next-key locks are used for RR to protect scanned range from
inserting new records by other transactions. And this is the reason of why
next-key locks are used for delete-marked records for unique searches.
If a record is not delete-marked, the requested lock type was "not-gap".
When a record is not delete-marked during lock request by trx 1, and
some other transaction holds conflicting lock, trx 1 creates waiting
not-gap lock on the record and suspends. During trx 1 suspending the
record can be delete-marked. And when the lock is granted on conflicting
transaction commit or rollback, its type is still "not-gap". So we have
"not-gap" lock on delete-marked record for RR. And this let some other
transaction to insert some record with the same unique key when trx 1 is
not committed, what can cause isolation level violation.
The fix is to set next-key locks for both delete-marked and
non-delete-marked records for unique search in RR.
The parameter innodb_prefix_index_cluster_optimization used to enable an
optimization that was added in cb37c55768
and was disabled by default.
We will unconditionally enable the extension and mark the parameter
as deprecated.
Related to this, the counters
Innodb_secondary_index_triggered_cluster_reads and
Innodb_secondary_index_triggered_cluster_reads_avoided
allowed to determine the usefulness of this optimization.
Now that the configuration parameter is disabled, the counters
do not serve any useful purpose and can be removed.
row_search_with_covering_prefix(): Fix a bug that caused an
incorrect result to be returned.
The InnoDB srv_stats counters
n_rows_updated, n_rows_deleted, n_rows_inserted, and n_rows_read
are duplicating
Handler_update, Handler_delete, Handler_write, and Handler_read_ counters.
Updating those counters is not free, especially because some counters
are furthermore split to distinguish a rare case of modifying tables
in the system schema.
The counters were added in commit 5e55d1ced5
and any code to update them was
inadvertently removed in commit 2e814d4702
when applying InnoDB changes from MySQL 5.7.
Let us remove these counters that never reported anything useful. If such
statistics are really needed in a special case, they can be obtained by
instrumenting the code by some means, such as eBPF or a source code patch.
The InnoDB monitor counter log_sys.n_log_ios was almost removed
in commit 685d958e38 (MDEV-14425).
This counter was rather meaningless already since
commit 30ea63b7d2
introduced a redo log group commit mechanism, and on the persistent
memory interface there are no file system calls that could be counted.
The only case when log_sys.n_log_ios was updated is when the log file
was being read during crash recovery.
Some related output in log_print() as well as the
information_schema.innodb_metrics counter log_num_log_io are best removed.
The InnoDB redo log used to be formatted in blocks of 512 bytes.
The log blocks were encrypted and the checksum was calculated while
holding log_sys.mutex, creating a serious scalability bottleneck.
We remove the fixed-size redo log block structure altogether and
essentially turn every mini-transaction into a log block of its own.
This allows encryption and checksum calculations to be performed
on local mtr_t::m_log buffers, before acquiring log_sys.mutex.
The mutex only protects a memcpy() of the data to the shared
log_sys.buf, as well as the padding of the log, in case the
to-be-written part of the log would not end in a block boundary of
the underlying storage. For now, the "padding" consists of writing
a single NUL byte, to allow recovery and mariadb-backup to detect
the end of the circular log faster.
Like the previous implementation, we will overwrite the last log block
over and over again, until it has been completely filled. It would be
possible to write only up to the last completed block (if no more
recent write was requested), or to write dummy FILE_CHECKPOINT records
to fill the incomplete block, by invoking the currently disabled
function log_pad(). This would require adjustments to some logic around
log checkpoints, page flushing, and shutdown.
An upgrade after a crash of any previous version is not supported.
Logically empty log files from a previous version will be upgraded.
An attempt to start up InnoDB without a valid ib_logfile0 will be
refused. Previously, the redo log used to be created automatically
if it was missing. Only with with innodb_force_recovery=6, it is
possible to start InnoDB in read-only mode even if the log file
does not exist. This allows the contents of a possibly corrupted
database to be dumped.
Because a prepared backup from an earlier version of mariadb-backup
will create a 0-sized log file, we will allow an upgrade from such
log files, provided that the FIL_PAGE_FILE_FLUSH_LSN in the system
tablespace looks valid.
The 512-byte log checkpoint blocks at 0x200 and 0x600 will be replaced
with 64-byte log checkpoint blocks at 0x1000 and 0x2000.
The start of log records will move from 0x800 to 0x3000. This allows us
to use 4096-byte aligned blocks for all I/O in a future revision.
We extend the MDEV-12353 redo log record format as follows.
(1) Empty mini-transactions or extra NUL bytes will not be allowed.
(2) The end-of-minitransaction marker (a NUL byte) will be replaced
with a 1-bit sequence number, which will be toggled each time when the
circular log file wraps back to the beginning.
(3) After the sequence bit, a CRC-32C checksum of all data
(excluding the sequence bit) will written.
(4) If the log is encrypted, 8 bytes will be written before
the checksum and included in it. This is part of the
initialization vector (IV) of encrypted log data.
(5) File names, page numbers, and checkpoint information will not be
encrypted. Only the payload bytes of page-level log will be encrypted.
The tablespace ID and page number will form part of the IV.
(6) For padding, arbitrary-length FILE_CHECKPOINT records may be written,
with all-zero payload, and with the normal end marker and checksum.
The minimum size is 7 bytes, or 7+8 with innodb_encrypt_log=ON.
In mariadb-backup and in Galera snapshot transfer (SST) scripts, we will
no longer remove ib_logfile0 or create an empty ib_logfile0. Server startup
will require a valid log file. When resizing the log, we will create
a logically empty ib_logfile101 at the current LSN and use an atomic rename
to replace ib_logfile0 with it. See the test innodb.log_file_size.
Because there is no mandatory padding in the log file, we are able
to create a dummy log file as of an arbitrary log sequence number.
See the test mariabackup.huge_lsn.
The parameter innodb_log_write_ahead_size and the
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counter log_padded will be removed.
The minimum value of innodb_log_buffer_size will be increased to 2MiB
(because log_sys.buf will replace recv_sys.buf) and the increment
adjusted to 4096 bytes (the maximum log block size).
The following INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counters will be removed:
os_log_fsyncs
os_log_pending_fsyncs
log_pending_log_flushes
log_pending_checkpoint_writes
The following status variables will be removed:
Innodb_os_log_fsyncs (this is included in Innodb_data_fsyncs)
Innodb_os_log_pending_fsyncs (this was limited to at most 1 by design)
log_sys.get_block_size(): Return the physical block size of the log file.
This is only implemented on Linux and Microsoft Windows for now, and for
the power-of-2 block sizes between 64 and 4096 bytes (the minimum and
maximum size of a checkpoint block). If the block size is anything else,
the traditional 512-byte size will be used via normal file system
buffering.
If the file system buffers can be bypassed, a message like the following
will be issued:
InnoDB: File system buffers for log disabled (block size=512 bytes)
InnoDB: File system buffers for log disabled (block size=4096 bytes)
This has been tested on Linux and Microsoft Windows with both sizes.
On Linux, only enable O_DIRECT on the log for innodb_flush_method=O_DSYNC.
Tests in 3 different environments where the log is stored in a device
with a physical block size of 512 bytes are yielding better throughput
without O_DIRECT. This could be due to the fact that in the event the
last log block is being overwritten (if multiple transactions would
become durable at the same time, and each of will write a small
number of bytes to the last log block), it should be faster to re-copy
data from log_sys.buf or log_sys.flush_buf to the kernel buffer,
to be finally written at fdatasync() time.
The parameter innodb_flush_method=O_DSYNC will imply O_DIRECT for
data files. This option will enable O_DIRECT on the log file on Linux.
It may be unsafe to use when the storage device does not support
FUA (Force Unit Access) mode.
When the server is compiled WITH_PMEM=ON, we will use memory-mapped
I/O for the log file if the log resides on a "mount -o dax" device.
We will identify PMEM in a start-up message:
InnoDB: log sequence number 0 (memory-mapped); transaction id 3
On Linux, we will also invoke mmap() on any ib_logfile0 that resides
in /dev/shm, effectively treating the log file as persistent memory.
This should speed up "./mtr --mem" and increase the test coverage of
PMEM on non-PMEM hardware. It also allows users to estimate how much
the performance would be improved by installing persistent memory.
On other tmpfs file systems such as /run, we will not use mmap().
mariadb-backup: Eliminated several variables. We will refer
directly to recv_sys and log_sys.
backup_wait_for_lsn(): Detect non-progress of
xtrabackup_copy_logfile(). In this new log format with
arbitrary-sized blocks, we can only detect log file overrun
indirectly, by observing that the scanned log sequence number
is not advancing.
xtrabackup_copy_logfile(): On PMEM, do not modify the sequence bit,
because we are not allowed to modify the server's log file, and our
memory mapping is read-only.
trx_flush_log_if_needed_low(): Do not use the callback on pmem.
Using neither flush_lock nor write_lock around PMEM writes seems
to yield the best performance. The pmem_persist() calls may
still be somewhat slower than the pwrite() and fdatasync() based
interface (PMEM mounted without -o dax).
recv_sys_t::buf: Remove. We will use log_sys.buf for parsing.
recv_sys_t::MTR_SIZE_MAX: Replaces RECV_SCAN_SIZE.
recv_sys_t::file_checkpoint: Renamed from mlog_checkpoint_lsn.
recv_sys_t, log_sys_t: Removed many data members.
recv_sys.lsn: Renamed from recv_sys.recovered_lsn.
recv_sys.offset: Renamed from recv_sys.recovered_offset.
log_sys.buf_size: Replaces srv_log_buffer_size.
recv_buf: A smart pointer that wraps log_sys.buf[recv_sys.offset]
when the buffer is being allocated from the memory heap.
recv_ring: A smart pointer that wraps a circular log_sys.buf[] that is
backed by ib_logfile0. The pointer will wrap from recv_sys.len
(log_sys.file_size) to log_sys.START_OFFSET. For the record that
wraps around, we may copy file name or record payload data to
the auxiliary buffer decrypt_buf in order to have a contiguous
block of memory. The maximum size of a record is less than
innodb_page_size bytes.
recv_sys_t::parse(): Take the smart pointer as a template parameter.
Do not temporarily add a trailing NUL byte to FILE_ records, because
we are not supposed to modify the memory-mapped log file. (It is
attached in read-write mode already during recovery.)
recv_sys_t::parse_mtr(): Wrapper for recv_sys_t::parse().
recv_sys_t::parse_pmem(): Like parse_mtr(), but if PREMATURE_EOF would be
returned on PMEM, use recv_ring to wrap around the buffer to the start.
mtr_t::finish_write(), log_close(): Do not enforce log_sys.max_buf_free
on PMEM, because it has no meaning on the mmap-based log.
log_sys.write_to_buf: Count writes to log_sys.buf. Replaces
srv_stats.log_write_requests and export_vars.innodb_log_write_requests.
Protected by log_sys.mutex. Updated consistently in log_close().
Previously, mtr_t::commit() conditionally updated the count,
which was inconsistent.
log_sys.write_to_log: Count swaps of log_sys.buf and log_sys.flush_buf,
for writing to log_sys.log (the ib_logfile0). Replaces
srv_stats.log_writes and export_vars.innodb_log_writes.
Protected by log_sys.mutex.
log_sys.waits: Count waits in append_prepare(). Replaces
srv_stats.log_waits and export_vars.innodb_log_waits.
recv_recover_page(): Do not unnecessarily acquire
log_sys.flush_order_mutex. We are inserting the blocks in arbitary
order anyway, to be adjusted in recv_sys.apply(true).
We will change the definition of flush_lock and write_lock to
avoid potential false sharing. Depending on sizeof(log_sys) and
CPU_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE, the flush_lock and write_lock could
share a cache line with each other or with the last data members
of log_sys.

This essentially reverts commit 4e89ec6692
and only disables InnoDB persistent statistics for tests where it is
desirable. By design, InnoDB persistent statistics will not be updated
except by ANALYZE TABLE or by STATS_AUTO_RECALC.
The internal transactions that update persistent InnoDB statistics
in background tasks (with innodb_stats_auto_recalc=ON) may cause
nondeterministic query plans or interfere with some tests that deal
with other InnoDB internals, such as the purge of transaction history.
This is a complete rewrite of DROP TABLE, also as part of other DDL,
such as ALTER TABLE, CREATE TABLE...SELECT, TRUNCATE TABLE.
The background DROP TABLE queue hack is removed.
If a transaction needs to drop and create a table by the same name
(like TRUNCATE TABLE does), it must first rename the table to an
internal #sql-ib name. No committed version of the data dictionary
will include any #sql-ib tables, because whenever a transaction
renames a table to a #sql-ib name, it will also drop that table.
Either the rename will be rolled back, or the drop will be committed.
Data files will be unlinked after the transaction has been committed
and a FILE_RENAME record has been durably written. The file will
actually be deleted when the detached file handle returned by
fil_delete_tablespace() will be closed, after the latches have been
released. It is possible that a purge of the delete of the SYS_INDEXES
record for the clustered index will execute fil_delete_tablespace()
concurrently with the DDL transaction. In that case, the thread that
arrives later will wait for the other thread to finish.
HTON_TRUNCATE_REQUIRES_EXCLUSIVE_USE: A new handler flag.
ha_innobase::truncate() now requires that all other references to
the table be released in advance. This was implemented by Monty.
ha_innobase::delete_table(): If CREATE TABLE..SELECT is detected,
we will "hijack" the current transaction, drop the table in
the current transaction and commit the current transaction.
This essentially fixes MDEV-21602. There is a FIXME comment about
making the check less failure-prone.
ha_innobase::truncate(), ha_innobase::delete_table():
Implement a fast path for temporary tables. We will no longer allow
temporary tables to use the adaptive hash index.
dict_table_t::mdl_name: The original table name for the purpose of
acquiring MDL in purge, to prevent a race condition between a
DDL transaction that is dropping a table, and purge processing
undo log records of DML that had executed before the DDL operation.
For #sql-backup- tables during ALTER TABLE...ALGORITHM=COPY, the
dict_table_t::mdl_name will differ from dict_table_t::name.
dict_table_t::parse_name(): Use mdl_name instead of name.
dict_table_rename_in_cache(): Update mdl_name.
For the internal FTS_ tables of FULLTEXT INDEX, purge would
acquire MDL on the FTS_ table name, but not on the main table,
and therefore it would be able to run concurrently with a
DDL transaction that is dropping the table. Previously, the
DROP TABLE queue hack prevented a race between purge and DDL.
For now, we introduce purge_sys.stop_FTS() to prevent purge from
opening any table, while a DDL transaction that may drop FTS_
tables is in progress. The function fts_lock_table(), which will
be invoked before the dictionary is locked, will wait for
purge to release any table handles.
trx_t::drop_table_statistics(): Drop statistics for the table.
This replaces dict_stats_drop_index(). We will drop or rename
persistent statistics atomically as part of DDL transactions.
On lock conflict for dropping statistics, we will fail instantly
with DB_LOCK_WAIT_TIMEOUT, because we will be holding the
exclusive data dictionary latch.
trx_t::commit_cleanup(): Separated from trx_t::commit_in_memory().
Relax an assertion around fts_commit() and allow DB_LOCK_WAIT_TIMEOUT
in addition to DB_DUPLICATE_KEY. The call to fts_commit() is
entirely misplaced here and may obviously break the consistency
of transactions that affect FULLTEXT INDEX. It needs to be fixed
separately.
dict_table_t::n_foreign_key_checks_running: Remove (MDEV-21175).
The counter was a work-around for missing meta-data locking (MDL)
on the SQL layer, and not really needed in MariaDB.
ER_TABLE_IN_FK_CHECK: Replaced with ER_UNUSED_28.
HA_ERR_TABLE_IN_FK_CHECK: Remove.
row_ins_check_foreign_constraints(): Do not acquire
dict_sys.latch either. The SQL-layer MDL will protect us.
This was reviewed by Thirunarayanan Balathandayuthapani
and tested by Matthias Leich.
The counter metadata_table_reference_count was not updated consistently
ever since mysql-server@65c0af9a1dedae43b63797134aff6b32304ced52
or commit 2e814d4702
introduced dict_table_t::release().
The counter metadata_table_handles_closed was being incremented
unconditionally in ha_innobase::close(), while the corresponding
counter metadata_table_handles_opened would be incremented in
ha_innobase::open() if the function returned early due to an error.
MONITOR_TRX_ACTIVE: Remove. The count is not being updated consistently,
and it would also include read-only transactions that are otherwise
fully invisible to any other threads.
If it later turns out that a reliable count of active transactions
is needed, it can be exposed via a different interface.
trx_commit_for_mysql(): If the transaction was not started, return
immediately.
Let us add the status variable innodb_buffer_pool_pages_LRU_freed
to monitor the number of pages that were freed by a buffer pool LRU
eviction scan, without flushing.
Also, let us simplify the monitor interface:
MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_FLUSH_COUNT, MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_FLUSH_PAGES,
MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_EVICT_COUNT, MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_EVICT_PAGES:
Remove.
MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_FLUSH_TOTAL_PAGE: Track buf_lru_flush_page_count
(innodb_buffer_pool_pages_LRU_flushed).
MONITOR_LRU_BATCH_EVICT_TOTAL_PAGE: Track buf_lru_freed_page_count
(buffer_pool_pages_LRU_freed).

InnoDB buffer pool block and index tree latches depend on a
special kind of read-update-write lock that allows reentrant
(recursive) acquisition of the 'update' and 'write' locks
as well as an upgrade from 'update' lock to 'write' lock.
The 'update' lock allows any number of reader locks from
other threads, but no concurrent 'update' or 'write' lock.
If there were no requirement to support an upgrade from 'update'
to 'write', we could compose the lock out of two srw_lock
(implemented as any type of native rw-lock, such as SRWLOCK on
Microsoft Windows). Removing this requirement is very difficult,
so in commit f7e7f487d4b06695f91f6fbeb0396b9d87fc7bbf we
implemented an 'update' mode to our srw_lock.
Re-entrant or recursive locking is mostly needed when writing or
freeing BLOB pages, but also in crash recovery or when merging
buffered changes to an index page. The re-entrancy allows us to
attach a previously acquired page to a sub-mini-transaction that
will be committed before whatever else is holding the page latch.
The SUX lock supports Shared ('read'), Update, and eXclusive ('write')
locking modes. The S latches are not re-entrant, but a single S latch
may be acquired even if the thread already holds an U latch.
The idea of the U latch is to allow a write of something that concurrent
readers do not care about (such as the contents of BTR_SEG_LEAF,
BTR_SEG_TOP and other page allocation metadata structures, or
the MDEV-6076 PAGE_ROOT_AUTO_INC). (The PAGE_ROOT_AUTO_INC field
is only updated when a dict_table_t for the table exists, and only
read when a dict_table_t for the table is being added to dict_sys.)
block_lock::u_lock_try(bool for_io=true) is used in buf_flush_page()
to allow concurrent readers but no concurrent modifications while the
page is being written to the data file. That latch will be released
by buf_page_write_complete() in a different thread. Hence, we use
the special lock owner value FOR_IO.
The index_lock::u_lock() improves concurrency on operations that
involve non-leaf index pages.
The interface has been cleaned up a little. We will use
x_lock_recursive() instead of x_lock() when we know that a
lock is already held by the current thread. Similarly,
a lock upgrade from U to X is only allowed via u_x_upgrade()
or x_lock_upgraded() but not via x_lock().
We will disable the LatchDebug and sync_array interfaces to
InnoDB rw-locks.
The SEMAPHORES section of SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS output
will no longer include any information about InnoDB rw-locks,
only TTASEventMutex (cmake -DMUTEXTYPE=event) waits.
This will make a part of the 'innotop' script dead code.
The block_lock buf_block_t::lock will not be covered by any
PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA instrumentation.
SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX and INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_MUTEXES
will no longer output source code file names or line numbers.
The dict_index_t::lock will be identified by index and table names,
which should be much more useful. PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA is lumping
information about all dict_index_t::lock together as
event_name='wait/synch/sxlock/innodb/index_tree_rw_lock'.
buf_page_free(): Remove the file,line parameters. The sux_lock will
not store such diagnostic information.
buf_block_dbg_add_level(): Define as empty macro, to be removed
in a subsequent commit.
Unless the build was configured with cmake -DPLUGIN_PERFSCHEMA=NO
the index_lock dict_index_t::lock will be instrumented via
PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA. Similar to
commit 1669c8890c
we will distinguish lock waits by registering shared_lock,exclusive_lock
events instead of try_shared_lock,try_exclusive_lock.
Actual 'try' operations will not be instrumented at all.
rw_lock_list: Remove. After MDEV-24167, this only covered
buf_block_t::lock and dict_index_t::lock. We will output their
information by traversing buf_pool or dict_sys.
After MDEV-15053, MDEV-22871, MDEV-23399 shifted the scalability
bottleneck, log checkpoints became a new bottleneck.
If innodb_io_capacity is set low or innodb_max_dirty_pct_lwm is
set high and the workload fits in the buffer pool, the page cleaner
thread will perform very little flushing. When we reach the capacity
of the circular redo log file ib_logfile0 and must initiate a checkpoint,
some 'furious flushing' will be necessary. (If innodb_flush_sync=OFF,
then flushing would continue at the innodb_io_capacity rate, and
writers would be throttled.)
We have the best chance of advancing the checkpoint LSN immediately
after a page flush batch has been completed. Hence, it is best to
perform checkpoints after every batch in the page cleaner thread,
attempting to run once per second.
By initiating high-priority flushing in the page cleaner as early
as possible, we aim to make the throughput more stable.
The function buf_flush_wait_flushed() used to sleep for 10ms, hoping
that the page cleaner thread would do something during that time.
The observed end result was that a large number of threads that call
log_free_check() would end up sleeping while nothing useful is happening.
We will revise the design so that in the default innodb_flush_sync=ON
mode, buf_flush_wait_flushed() will wake up the page cleaner thread
to perform the necessary flushing, and it will wait for a signal from
the page cleaner thread.
If innodb_io_capacity is set to a low value (causing the page cleaner to
throttle its work), a write workload would initially perform well, until
the capacity of the circular ib_logfile0 is reached and log_free_check()
will trigger checkpoints. At that point, the extra waiting in
buf_flush_wait_flushed() will start reducing throughput.
The page cleaner thread will also initiate log checkpoints after each
buf_flush_lists() call, because that is the best point of time for
the checkpoint LSN to advance by the maximum amount.
Even in 'furious flushing' mode we invoke buf_flush_lists() with
innodb_io_capacity_max pages at a time, and at the start of each
batch (in the log_flush() callback function that runs in a separate
task) we will invoke os_aio_wait_until_no_pending_writes(). This
tweak allows the checkpoint to advance in smaller steps and
significantly reduces the maximum latency. On an Intel Optane 960
NVMe SSD on Linux, it reduced from 4.6 seconds to 74 milliseconds.
On Microsoft Windows with a slower SSD, it reduced from more than
180 seconds to 0.6 seconds.
We will make innodb_adaptive_flushing=OFF simply flush innodb_io_capacity
per second whenever the dirty proportion of buffer pool pages exceeds
innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_lwm. For innodb_adaptive_flushing=ON we try
to make page_cleaner_flush_pages_recommendation() more consistent and
predictable: if we are below innodb_adaptive_flushing_lwm, let us flush
pages according to the return value of af_get_pct_for_dirty().
innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_lwm: Revert the change of the default value
that was made in MDEV-23399. The value innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_lwm=0
guarantees that a shutdown of an idle server will be fast. Users might
be surprised if normal shutdown suddenly became slower when upgrading
within a GA release series.
innodb_checkpoint_usec: Remove. The master task will no longer perform
periodic log checkpoints. It is the duty of the page cleaner thread.
log_sys.max_modified_age: Remove. The current span of the
buf_pool.flush_list expressed in LSN only matters for adaptive
flushing (outside the 'furious flushing' condition).
For the correctness of checkpoints, the only thing that matters is
the checkpoint age (log_sys.lsn - log_sys.last_checkpoint_lsn).
This run-time constant was also reported as log_max_modified_age_sync.
log_sys.max_checkpoint_age_async: Remove. This does not serve any
purpose, because the checkpoints will now be triggered by the page
cleaner thread. We will retain the log_sys.max_checkpoint_age limit
for engaging 'furious flushing'.
page_cleaner.slot: Remove. It turns out that
page_cleaner_slot.flush_list_time was duplicating
page_cleaner.slot.flush_time and page_cleaner.slot.flush_list_pass
was duplicating page_cleaner.flush_pass.
Likewise, there were some redundant monitor counters, because the
page cleaner thread no longer performs any buf_pool.LRU flushing, and
because there only is one buf_flush_page_cleaner thread.
buf_flush_sync_lsn: Protect writes by buf_pool.flush_list_mutex.
buf_pool_t::get_oldest_modification(): Add a parameter to specify the
return value when no persistent data pages are dirty. Require the
caller to hold buf_pool.flush_list_mutex.
log_buf_pool_get_oldest_modification(): Take the fall-back LSN
as a parameter. All callers will also invoke log_sys.get_lsn().
log_preflush_pool_modified_pages(): Replaced with buf_flush_wait_flushed().
buf_flush_wait_flushed(): Implement two limits. If not enough buffer pool
has been flushed, signal the page cleaner (unless innodb_flush_sync=OFF)
and wait for the page cleaner to complete. If the page cleaner
thread is not running (which can be the case durign shutdown),
initiate the flush and wait for it directly.
buf_flush_ahead(): If innodb_flush_sync=ON (the default),
submit a new buf_flush_sync_lsn target for the page cleaner
but do not wait for the flushing to finish.
log_get_capacity(), log_get_max_modified_age_async(): Remove, to make
it easier to see that af_get_pct_for_lsn() is not acquiring any mutexes.
page_cleaner_flush_pages_recommendation(): Protect all access to
buf_pool.flush_list with buf_pool.flush_list_mutex. Previously there
were some race conditions in the calculation.
buf_flush_sync_for_checkpoint(): New function to process
buf_flush_sync_lsn in the page cleaner thread. At the end of
each batch, we try to wake up any blocked buf_flush_wait_flushed().
If everything up to buf_flush_sync_lsn has been flushed, we will
reset buf_flush_sync_lsn=0. The page cleaner thread will keep
'furious flushing' until the limit is reached. Any threads that
are waiting in buf_flush_wait_flushed() will be able to resume
as soon as their own limit has been satisfied.
buf_flush_page_cleaner: Prioritize buf_flush_sync_lsn and do not
sleep as long as it is set. Do not update any page_cleaner statistics
for this special mode of operation. In the normal mode
(buf_flush_sync_lsn is not set for innodb_flush_sync=ON),
try to wake up once per second. No longer check whether
srv_inc_activity_count() has been called. After each batch,
try to perform a log checkpoint, because the best chances for
the checkpoint LSN to advance by the maximum amount are upon
completing a flushing batch.
log_t: Move buf_free, max_buf_free possibly to the same cache line
with log_sys.mutex.
log_margin_checkpoint_age(): Simplify the logic, and replace
a 0.1-second sleep with a call to buf_flush_wait_flushed() to
initiate flushing. Moved to the same compilation unit
with the only caller.
log_close(): Clean up the calculations. (Should be no functional
change.) Return whether flush-ahead is needed. Moved to the same
compilation unit with the only caller.
mtr_t::finish_write(): Return whether flush-ahead is needed.
mtr_t::commit(): Invoke buf_flush_ahead() when needed. Let us avoid
external calls in mtr_t::commit() and make the logic easier to follow
by having related code in a single compilation unit. Also, we will
invoke srv_stats.log_write_requests.inc() only once per
mini-transaction commit, while not holding mutexes.
log_checkpoint_margin(): Only care about log_sys.max_checkpoint_age.
Upon reaching log_sys.max_checkpoint_age where we must wait to prevent
the log from getting corrupted, let us wait for at most 1MiB of LSN
at a time, before rechecking the condition. This should allow writers
to proceed even if the redo log capacity has been reached and
'furious flushing' is in progress. We no longer care about
log_sys.max_modified_age_sync or log_sys.max_modified_age_async.
The log_sys.max_modified_age_sync could be a relic from the time when
there was a srv_master_thread that wrote dirty pages to data files.
Also, we no longer have any log_sys.max_checkpoint_age_async limit,
because log checkpoints will now be triggered by the page cleaner
thread upon completing buf_flush_lists().
log_set_capacity(): Simplify the calculations of the limit
(no functional change).
log_checkpoint_low(): Split from log_checkpoint(). Moved to the
same compilation unit with the caller.
log_make_checkpoint(): Only wait for everything to be flushed until
the current LSN.
create_log_file(): After checkpoint, invoke log_write_up_to()
to ensure that the FILE_CHECKPOINT record has been written.
This avoids ut_ad(!srv_log_file_created) in create_log_file_rename().
srv_start(): Do not call recv_recovery_from_checkpoint_start()
if the log has just been created. Set fil_system.space_id_reuse_warned
before dict_boot() has been executed, and clear it after recovery
has finished.
dict_boot(): Initialize fil_system.max_assigned_id.
srv_check_activity(): Remove. The activity count is counting transaction
commits and therefore mostly interesting for the purge of history.
BtrBulk::insert(): Do not explicitly wake up the page cleaner,
but do invoke srv_inc_activity_count(), because that counter is
still being used in buf_load_throttle_if_needed() for some
heuristics. (It might be cleaner to execute buf_load() in the
page cleaner thread!)
Reviewed by: Vladislav Vaintroub
The buffer pool refactoring in MDEV-15053 and MDEV-22871 shifted
the performance bottleneck to the page flushing.
The configuration parameters will be changed as follows:
innodb_lru_flush_size=32 (new: how many pages to flush on LRU eviction)
innodb_lru_scan_depth=1536 (old: 1024)
innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct=90 (old: 75)
innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_lwm=75 (old: 0)
Note: The parameter innodb_lru_scan_depth will only affect LRU
eviction of buffer pool pages when a new page is being allocated. The
page cleaner thread will no longer evict any pages. It used to
guarantee that some pages will remain free in the buffer pool. Now, we
perform that eviction 'on demand' in buf_LRU_get_free_block().
The parameter innodb_lru_scan_depth(srv_LRU_scan_depth) is used as follows:
* When the buffer pool is being shrunk in buf_pool_t::withdraw_blocks()
* As a buf_pool.free limit in buf_LRU_list_batch() for terminating
the flushing that is initiated e.g., by buf_LRU_get_free_block()
The parameter also used to serve as an initial limit for unzip_LRU
eviction (evicting uncompressed page frames while retaining
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED pages), but now we will use a hard-coded limit
of 100 or unlimited for invoking buf_LRU_scan_and_free_block().
The status variables will be changed as follows:
innodb_buffer_pool_pages_flushed: This includes also the count of
innodb_buffer_pool_pages_LRU_flushed and should work reliably,
updated one by one in buf_flush_page() to give more real-time
statistics. The function buf_flush_stats(), which we are removing,
was not called in every code path. For both counters, we will use
regular variables that are incremented in a critical section of
buf_pool.mutex. Note that show_innodb_vars() directly links to the
variables, and reads of the counters will *not* be protected by
buf_pool.mutex, so you cannot get a consistent snapshot of both variables.
The following INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_METRICS counters will be
removed, because the page cleaner no longer deals with writing or
evicting least recently used pages, and because the single-page writes
have been removed:
* buffer_LRU_batch_flush_avg_time_slot
* buffer_LRU_batch_flush_avg_time_thread
* buffer_LRU_batch_flush_avg_time_est
* buffer_LRU_batch_flush_avg_pass
* buffer_LRU_single_flush_scanned
* buffer_LRU_single_flush_num_scan
* buffer_LRU_single_flush_scanned_per_call
When moving to a single buffer pool instance in MDEV-15058, we missed
some opportunity to simplify the buf_flush_page_cleaner thread. It was
unnecessarily using a mutex and some complex data structures, even
though we always have a single page cleaner thread.
Furthermore, the buf_flush_page_cleaner thread had separate 'recovery'
and 'shutdown' modes where it was waiting to be triggered by some
other thread, adding unnecessary latency and potential for hangs in
relatively rarely executed startup or shutdown code.
The page cleaner was also running two kinds of batches in an
interleaved fashion: "LRU flush" (writing out some least recently used
pages and evicting them on write completion) and the normal batches
that aim to increase the MIN(oldest_modification) in the buffer pool,
to help the log checkpoint advance.
The buf_pool.flush_list flushing was being blocked by
buf_block_t::lock for no good reason. Furthermore, if the FIL_PAGE_LSN
of a page is ahead of log_sys.get_flushed_lsn(), that is, what has
been persistently written to the redo log, we would trigger a log
flush and then resume the page flushing. This would unnecessarily
limit the performance of the page cleaner thread and trigger the
infamous messages "InnoDB: page_cleaner: 1000ms intended loop took 4450ms.
The settings might not be optimal" that were suppressed in
commit d1ab89037a unless log_warnings>2.
Our revised algorithm will make log_sys.get_flushed_lsn() advance at
the start of buf_flush_lists(), and then execute a 'best effort' to
write out all pages. The flush batches will skip pages that were modified
since the log was written, or are are currently exclusively locked.
The MDEV-13670 message "page_cleaner: 1000ms intended loop took" message
will be removed, because by design, the buf_flush_page_cleaner() should
not be blocked during a batch for extended periods of time.
We will remove the single-page flushing altogether. Related to this,
the debug parameter innodb_doublewrite_batch_size will be removed,
because all of the doublewrite buffer will be used for flushing
batches. If a page needs to be evicted from the buffer pool and all
100 least recently used pages in the buffer pool have unflushed
changes, buf_LRU_get_free_block() will execute buf_flush_lists() to
write out and evict innodb_lru_flush_size pages. At most one thread
will execute buf_flush_lists() in buf_LRU_get_free_block(); other
threads will wait for that LRU flushing batch to finish.
To improve concurrency, we will replace the InnoDB ib_mutex_t and
os_event_t native mutexes and condition variables in this area of code.
Most notably, this means that the buffer pool mutex (buf_pool.mutex)
is no longer instrumented via any InnoDB interfaces. It will continue
to be instrumented via PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA.
For now, both buf_pool.flush_list_mutex and buf_pool.mutex will be
declared with MY_MUTEX_INIT_FAST (PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP). The critical
sections of buf_pool.flush_list_mutex should be shorter than those for
buf_pool.mutex, because in the worst case, they cover a linear scan of
buf_pool.flush_list, while the worst case of a critical section of
buf_pool.mutex covers a linear scan of the potentially much longer
buf_pool.LRU list.
mysql_mutex_is_owner(), safe_mutex_is_owner(): New predicate, usable
with SAFE_MUTEX. Some InnoDB debug assertions need this predicate
instead of mysql_mutex_assert_owner() or mysql_mutex_assert_not_owner().
buf_pool_t::n_flush_LRU, buf_pool_t::n_flush_list:
Replaces buf_pool_t::init_flush[] and buf_pool_t::n_flush[].
The number of active flush operations.
buf_pool_t::mutex, buf_pool_t::flush_list_mutex: Use mysql_mutex_t
instead of ib_mutex_t, to have native mutexes with PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA
and SAFE_MUTEX instrumentation.
buf_pool_t::done_flush_LRU: Condition variable for !n_flush_LRU.
buf_pool_t::done_flush_list: Condition variable for !n_flush_list.
buf_pool_t::do_flush_list: Condition variable to wake up the
buf_flush_page_cleaner when a log checkpoint needs to be written
or the server is being shut down. Replaces buf_flush_event.
We will keep using timed waits (the page cleaner thread will wake
_at least_ once per second), because the calculations for
innodb_adaptive_flushing depend on fixed time intervals.
buf_dblwr: Allocate statically, and move all code to member functions.
Use a native mutex and condition variable. Remove code to deal with
single-page flushing.
buf_dblwr_check_block(): Make the check debug-only. We were spending
a significant amount of execution time in page_simple_validate_new().
flush_counters_t::unzip_LRU_evicted: Remove.
IORequest: Make more members const. FIXME: m_fil_node should be removed.
buf_flush_sync_lsn: Protect by std::atomic, not page_cleaner.mutex
(which we are removing).
page_cleaner_slot_t, page_cleaner_t: Remove many redundant members.
pc_request_flush_slot(): Replaces pc_request() and pc_flush_slot().
recv_writer_thread: Remove. Recovery works just fine without it, if we
simply invoke buf_flush_sync() at the end of each batch in
recv_sys_t::apply().
recv_recovery_from_checkpoint_finish(): Remove. We can simply call
recv_sys.debug_free() directly.
srv_started_redo: Replaces srv_start_state.
SRV_SHUTDOWN_FLUSH_PHASE: Remove. logs_empty_and_mark_files_at_shutdown()
can communicate with the normal page cleaner loop via the new function
flush_buffer_pool().
buf_flush_remove(): Assert that the calling thread is holding
buf_pool.flush_list_mutex. This removes unnecessary mutex operations
from buf_flush_remove_pages() and buf_flush_dirty_pages(),
which replace buf_LRU_flush_or_remove_pages().
buf_flush_lists(): Renamed from buf_flush_batch(), with simplified
interface. Return the number of flushed pages. Clarified comments and
renamed min_n to max_n. Identify LRU batch by lsn=0. Merge all the functions
buf_flush_start(), buf_flush_batch(), buf_flush_end() directly to this
function, which was their only caller, and remove 2 unnecessary
buf_pool.mutex release/re-acquisition that we used to perform around
the buf_flush_batch() call. At the start, if not all log has been
durably written, wait for a background task to do it, or start a new
task to do it. This allows the log write to run concurrently with our
page flushing batch. Any pages that were skipped due to too recent
FIL_PAGE_LSN or due to them being latched by a writer should be flushed
during the next batch, unless there are further modifications to those
pages. It is possible that a page that we must flush due to small
oldest_modification also carries a recent FIL_PAGE_LSN or is being
constantly modified. In the worst case, all writers would then end up
waiting in log_free_check() to allow the flushing and the checkpoint
to complete.
buf_do_flush_list_batch(): Clarify comments, and rename min_n to max_n.
Cache the last looked up tablespace. If neighbor flushing is not applicable,
invoke buf_flush_page() directly, avoiding a page lookup in between.
buf_flush_space(): Auxiliary function to look up a tablespace for
page flushing.
buf_flush_page(): Defer the computation of space->full_crc32(). Never
call log_write_up_to(), but instead skip persistent pages whose latest
modification (FIL_PAGE_LSN) is newer than the redo log. Also skip
pages on which we cannot acquire a shared latch without waiting.
buf_flush_try_neighbors(): Do not bother checking buf_fix_count
because buf_flush_page() will no longer wait for the page latch.
Take the tablespace as a parameter, and only execute this function
when innodb_flush_neighbors>0. Avoid repeated calls of page_id_t::fold().
buf_flush_relocate_on_flush_list(): Declare as cold, and push down
a condition from the callers.
buf_flush_check_neighbor(): Take id.fold() as a parameter.
buf_flush_sync(): Ensure that the buf_pool.flush_list is empty,
because the flushing batch will skip pages whose modifications have
not yet been written to the log or were latched for modification.
buf_free_from_unzip_LRU_list_batch(): Remove redundant local variables.
buf_flush_LRU_list_batch(): Let the caller buf_do_LRU_batch() initialize
the counters, and report n->evicted.
Cache the last looked up tablespace. If neighbor flushing is not applicable,
invoke buf_flush_page() directly, avoiding a page lookup in between.
buf_do_LRU_batch(): Return the number of pages flushed.
buf_LRU_free_page(): Only release and re-acquire buf_pool.mutex if
adaptive hash index entries are pointing to the block.
buf_LRU_get_free_block(): Do not wake up the page cleaner, because it
will no longer perform any useful work for us, and we do not want it
to compete for I/O while buf_flush_lists(innodb_lru_flush_size, 0)
writes out and evicts at most innodb_lru_flush_size pages. (The
function buf_do_LRU_batch() may complete after writing fewer pages if
more than innodb_lru_scan_depth pages end up in buf_pool.free list.)
Eliminate some mutex release-acquire cycles, and wait for the LRU
flush batch to complete before rescanning.
buf_LRU_check_size_of_non_data_objects(): Simplify the code.
buf_page_write_complete(): Remove the parameter evict, and always
evict pages that were part of an LRU flush.
buf_page_create(): Take a pre-allocated page as a parameter.
buf_pool_t::free_block(): Free a pre-allocated block.
recv_sys_t::recover_low(), recv_sys_t::apply(): Preallocate the block
while not holding recv_sys.mutex. During page allocation, we may
initiate a page flush, which in turn may initiate a log flush, which
would require acquiring log_sys.mutex, which should always be acquired
before recv_sys.mutex in order to avoid deadlocks. Therefore, we must
not be holding recv_sys.mutex while allocating a buffer pool block.
BtrBulk::logFreeCheck(): Skip a redundant condition.
row_undo_step(): Do not invoke srv_inc_activity_count() for every row
that is being rolled back. It should suffice to invoke the function in
trx_flush_log_if_needed() during trx_t::commit_in_memory() when the
rollback completes.
sync_check_enable(): Remove. We will enable innodb_sync_debug from the
very beginning.

We will remove the InnoDB background operation of merging buffered
changes to secondary index leaf pages. Changes will only be merged as a
result of an operation that accesses a secondary index leaf page,
such as a SQL statement that performs a lookup via that index,
or is modifying the index. Also ROLLBACK and some background operations,
such as purging the history of committed transactions, or computing
index cardinality statistics, can cause change buffer merge.
Encryption key rotation will not perform change buffer merge.
The motivation of this change is to simplify the I/O logic and to
allow crash recovery to happen in the background (MDEV-14481).
We also hope that this will reduce the number of "mystery" crashes
due to corrupted data. Because change buffer merge will typically
take place as a result of executing SQL statements, there should be
a clearer connection between the crash and the SQL statements that
were executed when the server crashed.
In many cases, a slight performance improvement was observed.
This is joint work with Thirunarayanan Balathandayuthapani
and was tested by Axel Schwenke and Matthias Leich.
The InnoDB monitor counter innodb_ibuf_merge_usec will be removed.
On slow shutdown (innodb_fast_shutdown=0), we will continue to
merge all buffered changes (and purge all undo log history).
Two InnoDB configuration parameters will be changed as follows:
innodb_disable_background_merge: Removed.
This parameter existed only in debug builds.
All change buffer merges will use synchronous reads.
innodb_force_recovery will be changed as follows:
* innodb_force_recovery=4 will be the same as innodb_force_recovery=3
(the change buffer merge cannot be disabled; it can only happen as
a result of an operation that accesses a secondary index leaf page).
The option used to be capable of corrupting secondary index leaf pages.
Now that capability is removed, and innodb_force_recovery=4 becomes 'safe'.
* innodb_force_recovery=5 (which essentially hard-wires
SET GLOBAL TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED)
becomes safe to use. Bogus data can be returned to SQL, but
persistent InnoDB data files will not be corrupted further.
* innodb_force_recovery=6 (ignore the redo log files)
will be the only option that can potentially cause
persistent corruption of InnoDB data files.
Code changes:
buf_page_t::ibuf_exist: New flag, to indicate whether buffered
changes exist for a buffer pool page. Pages with pending changes
can be returned by buf_page_get_gen(). Previously, the changes
were always merged inside buf_page_get_gen() if needed.
ibuf_page_exists(const buf_page_t&): Check if a buffered changes
exist for an X-latched or read-fixed page.
buf_page_get_gen(): Add the parameter allow_ibuf_merge=false.
All callers that know that they may be accessing a secondary index
leaf page must pass this parameter as allow_ibuf_merge=true,
unless it does not matter for that caller whether all buffered
changes have been applied. Assert that whenever allow_ibuf_merge
holds, the page actually is a leaf page. Attempt change buffer
merge only to secondary B-tree index leaf pages.
btr_block_get(): Add parameter 'bool merge'.
All callers of btr_block_get() should know whether the page could be
a secondary index leaf page. If it is not, we should avoid consulting
the change buffer bitmap to even consider a merge. This is the main
interface to requesting index pages from the buffer pool.
ibuf_merge_or_delete_for_page(), recv_recover_page(): Replace
buf_page_get_known_nowait() with much simpler logic, because
it is now guaranteed that that the block is x-latched or read-fixed.
mlog_init_t::mark_ibuf_exist(): Renamed from mlog_init_t::ibuf_merge().
On crash recovery, we will no longer merge any buffered changes
for the pages that we read into the buffer pool during the last batch
of applying log records.
buf_page_get_gen_known_nowait(), BUF_MAKE_YOUNG, BUF_KEEP_OLD: Remove.
btr_search_guess_on_hash(): Merge buf_page_get_gen_known_nowait()
to its only remaining caller.
buf_page_make_young_if_needed(): Define as an inline function.
Add the parameter buf_pool.
buf_page_peek_if_young(), buf_page_peek_if_too_old(): Add the
parameter buf_pool.
fil_space_validate_for_mtr_commit(): Remove a bogus comment
about background merge of the change buffer.
btr_cur_open_at_rnd_pos_func(), btr_cur_search_to_nth_level_func(),
btr_cur_open_at_index_side_func(): Use narrower data types and scopes.
ibuf_read_merge_pages(): Replaces buf_read_ibuf_merge_pages().
Merge the change buffer by invoking buf_page_get_gen().
Shorten some VARCHAR attributes to a more reasonable length.
INNODB_METRICS: Rename the column STATUS to ENABLED, and make it Boolean.
Replace with INT(1) many Boolean attributes that were declared as VARCHAR
containing 'NO','YES','disabled','enabled','Uninitialized','Initialized'.
Replace some VARCHAR attributes with ENUM.
Replace some BIGINT with INT when 32 bits are sufficient.
Remove INNODB_SYS_TABLESPACES.SPACE_TYPE. The type of a tablespace
can be derived from the tablespace ID. A fixed number is used for
the system tablespace and the temporary tablespace. All other tablespaces
are single-table or single-partition tablespaces.
i_s_locks_row_t::lock_type, lock_get_type_str(): Remove.
This is a redundant field. Table and record locks can be
distinguished by whether i_s_locks_row_t::lock_index is NULL.
fill_trx_row(): Do not unnecessarily copy the constant strings that
trx->op_info is pointing to.
i_s_locks_row_t::lock_mode: Replace string with integer.
lock_get_mode_str(), lock_get_trx_id(), lock_get_trx(): Remove.
field_store_ulint(): Remove.
Reason for the change was that ha_notify_table_changed() was done
after table open when .frm had been replaced, which caused failure
in engines that checks on open if .frm matches the engines table
definition.
Other changes:
- Remove not needed open/close call at end of inline alter table.
Some test that depended on the table beeing in the table cache after
ALTER TABLE had to be updated.
