archive_discover
Fixed buffer underrun in cleanup_dirname().
Also fixed that original (unencoded) database and table
names were used to discover archive tables.
Bug#54678: InnoDB, TRUNCATE, ALTER, I_S SELECT, crash or deadlock
- Incompatible change: truncate no longer resorts to a row by
row delete if the storage engine does not support the truncate
method. Consequently, the count of affected rows does not, in
any case, reflect the actual number of rows.
- Incompatible change: it is no longer possible to truncate a
table that participates as a parent in a foreign key constraint,
unless it is a self-referencing constraint (both parent and child
are in the same table). To work around this incompatible change
and still be able to truncate such tables, disable foreign checks
with SET foreign_key_checks=0 before truncate. Alternatively, if
foreign key checks are necessary, please use a DELETE statement
without a WHERE condition.
Problem description:
The problem was that for storage engines that do not support
truncate table via a external drop and recreate, such as InnoDB
which implements truncate via a internal drop and recreate, the
delete_all_rows method could be invoked with a shared metadata
lock, causing problems if the engine needed exclusive access
to some internal metadata. This problem originated with the
fact that there is no truncate specific handler method, which
ended up leading to a abuse of the delete_all_rows method that
is primarily used for delete operations without a condition.
Solution:
The solution is to introduce a truncate handler method that is
invoked when the engine does not support truncation via a table
drop and recreate. This method is invoked under a exclusive
metadata lock, so that there is only a single instance of the
table when the method is invoked.
Also, the method is not invoked and a error is thrown if
the table is a parent in a non-self-referencing foreign key
relationship. This was necessary to avoid inconsistency as
some integrity checks are bypassed. This is inline with the
fact that truncate is primarily a DDL operation that was
designed to quickly remove all data from a table.
The problem was that the optimize method of the ARCHIVE storage
engine was not preserving the FRM embedded in the ARZ file when
rewriting the ARZ file for optimization. The ARCHIVE engine stores
the FRM in the ARZ file so it can be transferred from machine to
machine without also copying the FRM -- the engine restores the
embedded FRM during discovery.
The solution is to copy over the FRM when rewriting the ARZ file.
In addition, some initial error checking is performed to ensure
garbage is not copied over.
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
This patch:
- Moves all definitions from the mysql_priv.h file into
header files for the component where the variable is
defined
- Creates header files if the component lacks one
- Eliminates all include directives from mysql_priv.h
- Eliminates all circular include cycles
- Rename time.cc to sql_time.cc
- Rename mysql_priv.h to sql_priv.h
There was no way to repair corrupt ARCHIVE data file,
when unrecoverable data loss is inevitable.
With this fix REPAIR ... EXTENDED attempts to restore
as much rows as possible, ignoring unrecoverable data.
Normal REPAIR is still able to repair meta-data file
only.
Server crashes when accessing ARCHIVE table with missing
.ARZ file.
When opening a table, ARCHIVE didn't properly pass through
error code from lower level azopen() to higher level open()
method.
Select queries on archive tables when joined on their primary keys
returns no results(empty set)
Archive storage doesn't inform the handler about the fetched record
status when it is found. Fixed the archive storage engine to update
the record status when it fetches successfully

Bug#32082 : definition of VOID in my_global.h conflicts with Windows
SDK headers
VOID macro is now removed. Its usage is replaced with void cast.
In some cases, where cast does not make much sense (pthread_*, printf,
hash_delete, my_seek), cast is ommited.
on any access
Archive engine for 5.1 (and latter) version uses a modified
version of zlib (azlib). These two version are incompatible
so a proper upgrade is needed before tables created in 5.0
can be used reliable.
This upgrade can be performed using repair. But due to lack
of test its risky to allow upgrade for now. This patch addresses
only the crashing issue. Any attempt to repair will be blocked.
Eventually repair can be allowed to run through (which will also
cause an upgrade from older version to newer) but only after a
thorough testing.
Archive engine returns wrong values for average record length
and max data length.
With this fix they're calculated as following:
- max data length is 2 ^ 63 where large files are supported
and INT_MAX32 where this is not supported;
- average record length is data length / records in data file.
SELECT with join (not only self-join) from archive table may
return incomplete result set, when result set size exceeds
join buffer size.
The problem was that archive row counter was initialzed too
early, when ha_archive::info() method was called. Later,
when optimizer exceeds join buffer, it attempts to reuse
handler without calling ha_archive::info() again (which is
correct).
Fixed by moving row counter initialization from
ha_archive::info() to ha_archive::rnd_init().
bzr branch mysql-5.1-performance-version mysql-trunk # Summit
cd mysql-trunk

bzr rm innobase # remove the builtin
Next step: build, test fixes.
This patch fixes compilation warning, "conversion from 'time_t' to 'ulong',
possible loss of data".
The fix is to typecast time_t to ulong before assigning it to ulong.
Backported this from 6.0-bugteam tree.
Any statement reading corrupt archive data file
(CHECK/REPAIR/SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE) may cause assertion
failure in debug builds. This assertion has been removed
and an error is returned instead.
Also fixed that CHECK/REPAIR returns vague error message
when it mets corruption in archive data file. This is
fixed by returning proper error code.
case and then select
Problem was that the archive share was using a case insensitive
charset when comparing table names
Solution was to use a case sensitive char set when the table
names are case sensitive
ha_partition::update_create_info() just calls update_create_info
of a first partition, so only get the autoincrement maximum
of the first partition, so SHOW CREATE TABLE can show
small AUTO_INCREMENT parameters.
Fixed by implementing ha_partition::update_create_info() in a way
other handlers work.
HA_ARCHIVE:stats.auto_increment handling made consistent with other engines
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
