- The deadlock counter was moved from
Deadlock::find_cycle into Deadlock::report, because
the find_cycle method is called multiple times during deadlock
detection flow, which means it shouldn't have such side effects.
But report() can, which called only once for
a victim transaction.
- Also the deadlock_detect.test and *.result test case
has been extended to handle the fix.
A new configuration parameter innodb_deadlock_report is introduced:
* innodb_deadlock_report=off: Do not report any details of deadlocks.
* innodb_deadlock_report=basic: Report transactions and waiting locks.
* innodb_deadlock_report=full (default): Report also the blocking locks.
The improved deadlock checker will consider all involved transactions
in one loop, even if the deadlock loop includes several transactions.
The theoretical maximum number of transactions that can be involved in
a deadlock is `innodb_page_size` * 8, limited by the persistent data
structures.
Note: Similar to
mysql/mysql-server@3859219875
our deadlock checker will consider at most one blocking transaction
for each waiting transaction. The new field trx->lock.wait_trx be
nullptr if and only if trx->lock.wait_lock is nullptr. Note that
trx->lock.wait_lock->trx == trx (the waiting transaction), while
trx->lock.wait_trx points to one of the transactions whose lock is
conflicting with trx->lock.wait_lock.
Considering only one blocking transaction will greatly simplify
our deadlock checker, but it may also make the deadlock checker
blind to some deadlocks where the deadlock cycle is 'hidden' by
the fact that the registered trx->lock.wait_trx is not actually
waiting for any InnoDB lock, but something else. So, instead of
deadlocks, sometimes lock wait timeout may be reported.
To improve on this, whenever trx->lock.wait_trx is changed, we
will register further 'candidate' transactions in Deadlock::to_check(),
and check for 'revealed' deadlocks as soon as possible, in lock_release()
and innobase_kill_query().
The old DeadlockChecker was holding lock_sys.latch, even though using
lock_sys.wait_mutex should be less contended (and thus preferred)
in the likely case that no deadlock is present.
lock_wait(): Defer the deadlock check to this function, instead of
executing it in lock_rec_enqueue_waiting(), lock_table_enqueue_waiting().
DeadlockChecker: Complete rewrite:
(1) Explicitly keep track of transactions that are being waited for,
in trx->lock.wait_trx, protected by lock_sys.wait_mutex. Previously,
we were painstakingly traversing the lock heaps while blocking
concurrent registration or removal of any locks (even uncontended ones).
(2) Use Brent's cycle-detection algorithm for deadlock detection,
traversing each trx->lock.wait_trx edge at most 2 times.
(3) If a deadlock is detected, release lock_sys.wait_mutex,
acquire LockMutexGuard, re-acquire lock_sys.wait_mutex and re-invoke
find_cycle() to find out whether the deadlock is still present.
(4) Display information on all transactions that are involved in the
deadlock, and choose a victim to be rolled back.
lock_sys.deadlocks: Replaces lock_deadlock_found. Protected by wait_mutex.
Deadlock::find_cycle(): Quickly find a cycle of trx->lock.wait_trx...
using Brent's cycle detection algorithm.
Deadlock::report(): Report a deadlock cycle that was found by
Deadlock::find_cycle(), and choose a victim with the least weight.
Altogether, we may traverse each trx->lock.wait_trx edge up to 5
times (2*find_cycle()+1 time for reporting and choosing the victim).
Deadlock::check_and_resolve(): Find and resolve a deadlock.
lock_wait_rpl_report(): Report the waits-for information to
replication. This used to be executed as part of DeadlockChecker.
Replication must know the waits-for relations even if no deadlocks
are present in InnoDB.

There is a race condition on a test. con1 is the older transaction
as it query started wait first. Test continues so that con1 gets
lock wait timeout first. There is possibility that default connection
gets lock timeout also or as con1 is rolled back it gets the locks
it waited and does the update. Fixed by removing query outputs as
they could vary and accepting success from default connection
query.
