concurrent I_S query
There were two problem:
1) MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH also ignored name locks
2) there was a race between abort_and_upgrade_locks and
alter_close_tables
(i.e. remove_table_from_cache and
close_data_files_and_morph_locks)
Which allowed the table to be opened with MYSQL_LOCK_IGNORE_FLUSH flag
resulting in renaming a partition that was already in use,
which could cause the table to be unusable.
Solution was to not allow IGNORE_FLUSH to skip waiting for
a named locked table.
And to not release the LOCK_open mutex between the
calls to remove_table_from_cache and
close_data_files_and_morph_locks by merging the functions
abort_and_upgrade_locks and alter_close_tables.
auto_increment on duplicate entry
The bug was that when INSERT_ID was used and the storage
engine was told to release any reserved but not used
auto_increment values, it set the highest auto_increment
value to INSERT_ID.
The fix was to check if the auto_increment value was forced
by user (INSERT_ID) or by slave-thread, i.e. not auto-
generated. So that it is only allowed to release generated
values.
Problem was block_size on partitioned tables was not set,
resulting in keys_per_block was not correct which affects
the cost calculation for read time of indexes (including
cost for group min/max).Which resulted in a bad optimizer
decision.
Fixed by setting stats.block_size correctly.
There was two problems:
The first was the symptom, caused by bad error handling in
ha_partition. It did not handle print_error etc. when
having no partitions (when used by dummy handler).
The second was the real problem that when dropping tables
it reused the table type (storage engine) from when the lock
was asked for, not the table type that it had when gaining
the exclusive name lock. So that it tried to delete tables
from wrong storage engines.
Solutions for the first problem was to accept some handler
calls to the partitioning handler even if it was not setup
with any partitions, and also if possible fallback
to use the base handler's default functions.
Solution for the second problem was to remove the optimization
to reuse the definition from the cache, instead always check
the frm-file when holding the LOCK_open mutex
(updated with a fix for a debug print crash and better
comments as required by reviewer, and removed optimization
to avoid reading the frm-file).
REORGANIZE PARTITION
There were several problems which lead to this this,
all related to bad error handling.
1) There was several bugs preventing the ddl-log to be used for
cleaning up created files on error.
2) The error handling after the copy partition rows did not close
and unlock the tables, resulting in deletion of partitions
which were in use, which lead InnoDB to put the partition to
drop in a background queue.
Problem was that ha_partition::records_in_range called
records_in_range for all non pruned partitions, even if
an estimate should be given.
Solution is to only use 1/3 of the partitions (up to 10) for
records_in_range and estimate the total from this subset.
(And continue until a non zero return value from the called
partitions records_in_range is given, since 0 means no rows
will match.)
backport for bug#44059 from mysql-pe to mysql-5.1-bugteam
Using the partition with most rows instead of first partition
to estimate the cardinality of indexes.
is reached
Problem was bad error handling, leaving some new temporary
partitions locked and initialized and some not yet initialized
and locked, leading to a crash when trying to unlock the not
yet initialized and locked partitions
Solution was to unlock the already locked partitions, and not
include any of the new temporary partitions in later unlocks
"insert into.. select * from"
When inserting into a partitioned table using 'insert into
<target> select * from <src>', read_buffer_size bytes of memory
are allocated for each partition in the target table.
This resulted in large memory consumption when the number of
partitions are high.
This patch introduces a new method which tries to estimate the
buffer size required for each partition and limits the maximum
buffer size used to maximum of 10 * read_buffer_size,
11 * read_buffer_size in case of monotonic partition functions.
(Backport)
Problem is that when insert (ha_start_bulk_insert) in i partitioned table,
it will call ha_start_bulk_insert for every partition, used or not.
Solution is to delay the call to the partitions ha_start_bulk_insert until
the first row is to be inserted into that partition
Inserting a negative value in the autoincrement column of a
partitioned innodb table was causing the value of the auto
increment counter to wrap around into a very large positive
value. The consequences are the same as if a very large positive
value was inserted into a column, e.g. reduced autoincrement
range, failure to read autoincrement counter.
The current patch ensures that before calculating the next
auto increment value, the current value is within the positive
maximum allowed limit.
INSERT ... SELECT ...
Problem was that when bulk insert is used on an empty
table/partition, it disables the indexes for better
performance, but in this specific case it also tries
to read from that partition using an index, which is
not possible since it has been disabled.
Solution was to allow index reads on disabled indexes
if there are no records.
Also reverted the patch for bug#38005, since that was a workaround
in the partitioning engine instead of a fix in myisam.
column on partitioned table
An assertion 'ASSERT_COULUMN_MARKED_FOR_READ' is failed if the query
is executed with index containing double column on partitioned table.
The problem is that assertion expects all the fields which are read,
to be in the read_set.
In this query only the field 'a' is in the readset as the tables in
the query are joined by the field 'a' and so the assertion fails
expecting other field 'b'.
Since the function cmp() is just comparison of two parameters passed,
the assertion is not required.
Fixed by removing the assertion in the double fields comparision
function and also fixed the index initialization to do ordered
index scan with RW LOCK which ensures all the fields from a key are in
the read_set.
Note: this bug is not reproducible with other datatypes because the
assertion doesn't exist in comparision function for other
datatypes.
We disallow the partitioning of a log table. You could however
partition a table first, and then point logging to it. This is
not only against the docs, it also crashes the server.
We catch this case now.
Problem was that a failing rename just left the partitions at the state
it was at the failure.
Solution was to try to revert the started rename if a failure occured.
the auto_increment value
This is an alternative patch that instead of allowing RECREATE TABLE
on TRUNCATE TABLE it implements reset_auto_increment that is called
after delete_all_rows.
Note: this bug was fixed by Mattias Jonsson:
Pusing this patch: http://lists.mysql.com/commits/70370
Problem is that DATA_FREE in SHOW TABLE STATUS
is not correct when not using innodb_file_per_table.
The solution is to use I_S.PARTITIONS instead.
This is only a small fix for correcting mean record length and
always return 0 if the table is empty.
'lock wait timeout exceeded'
Problem was a bug in the implementation of scan in partitioning
which masked the error code from the partition's handler.
Fixed by returning the value from the underlying handler.

on tables with partitions
Problem was that the handler function try_semi_consistent_read
was not propagated to the innodb handler.
Solution was to implement that function in the partitioning
handler.
order by
Problem was that the first index read was unordered,
and the next was ordered, resulting in use of
uninitialized data.
Solution was to use the correct variable to see if
the 'next' call should be ordered or not.
