Make the commit checkpoint inside InnoDB be asynchroneous.
Implement a background thread in binlog to do the writing and flushing of
binlog checkpoint events to disk.
Keep track of how many pending XIDs (transactions that are prepared in
storage engine and written into binlog, but not yet durably committed
on disk in the engine) there are in each binlog.
When the count of one binlog drops to zero, write a new binlog checkpoint
event, telling which is the oldest binlog with pending XIDs.
When doing XA recovery after a crash, check the last binlog checkpoint
event, and scan all binlog files from that point onwards for XIDs that
must be committed if found in prepared state inside engine.
Remove the code in binlog rotation that waits for all prepared XIDs to
be committed before writing a new binlog file (this is no longer necessary
when recovery can scan multiple binlog files).
Before this fix, the test performance_schema.relaylog would fail
with sporadic failures related to statistics on update_cond.
The reason for these failures is that thread scheduling makes
impossible to predict if instrumented conditions will be used on not.
The fix is to relax the test case, to not collect statistics about:
- wait/synch/cond/sql/MYSQL_BIN_LOG::update_cond
- wait/synch/cond/sql/MYSQL_RELAY_LOG::update_cond
Before this fix, all the performance schema instrumentation for both the binary log
and the relay log would use the following instruments:
- wait/io/file/sql/binlog
- wait/io/file/sql/binlog_index
- wait/synch/mutex/sql/MYSQL_BIN_LOG::LOCK_index
- wait/synch/cond/sql/MYSQL_BIN_LOG::update_cond
This instrumentation is too general and can be more specific.
With this fix, the binlog instrumentation is identical,
and the relay log instrumentation is changed to:
- wait/io/file/sql/relaylog
- wait/io/file/sql/relaylog_index
- wait/synch/mutex/sql/MYSQL_RELAY_LOG::LOCK_index
- wait/synch/cond/sql/MYSQL_RELAY_LOG::update_cond
With this change, the performance instrumentation for the binary log and the relay log,
which share the same structure but have different uses, is more detailed.
This is especially important for hosts in the middle of a replication chain,
that are both masters (binlog) and slaves (relaylog).
