For running the Galera tests, the variable my_disable_leak_check
was set to true in order to avoid assertions due to memory leaks
at shutdown.
Some adjustments due to MDEV-13625 (merge InnoDB tests from MySQL 5.6)
were performed. The most notable behaviour changes from 10.0 and 10.1
are the following:
* innodb.innodb-table-online: adjustments for the DROP COLUMN
behaviour change (MDEV-11114, MDEV-13613)
* innodb.innodb-index-online-fk: the removal of a (1,NULL) record
from the result; originally removed in MySQL 5.7 in the
Oracle Bug #16244691 fix
377774689b
* innodb.create-index-debug: disabled due to MDEV-13680
(the MySQL Bug #77497 fix was not merged from 5.6 to 5.7.10)
* innodb.innodb-alter-autoinc: MariaDB 10.2 behaves like MySQL 5.6/5.7,
while MariaDB 10.0 and 10.1 assign different values when
auto_increment_increment or auto_increment_offset are used.
Also MySQL 5.6/5.7 exhibit different behaviour between
LGORITHM=INPLACE and ALGORITHM=COPY, so something needs to be tested
and fixed in both MariaDB 10.0 and 10.2.
* innodb.innodb-wl5980-alter: disabled because it would trigger an
InnoDB assertion failure (MDEV-13668 may need additional effort in 10.2)
If this variable is set, skip actual AWS calls, and fake/mock
both generation and encryption of the keys.
The advantage of having a mock mode is that more aws_key_management tests
can be enabled on buildbot.
Fixed null pointer dereference in parsing "show full processlist" output
with atoi().
Some Innodb background thread has NULL in 'Time' column,
thus backup would crash with when atoi is applied to null pointer.
There is an inherent race condition between Mariabackup and the
MariaDB server when the InnoDB redo log is being copied. It is
possible that the tail of the circular redo log is overwriting
the head of the log before Mariabackup gets a chance to read it.
So, we reduce the test to generate less redo log. Also, enable
the test on all supported innodb_page_size.
InnoDB I/O and buffer pool interfaces and the redo log format
have been changed between MariaDB 10.1 and 10.2, and the backup
code has to be adjusted accordingly.
The code has been simplified, and many memory leaks have been fixed.
Instead of the file name xtrabackup_logfile, the file name ib_logfile0
is being used for the copy of the redo log. Unnecessary InnoDB startup and
shutdown and some unnecessary threads have been removed.
Some help was provided by Vladislav Vaintroub.
Parameters have been cleaned up and aligned with those of MariaDB 10.2.
The --dbug option has been added, so that in debug builds,
--dbug=d,ib_log can be specified to enable diagnostic messages
for processing redo log entries.
By default, innodb_doublewrite=OFF, so that --prepare works faster.
If more crash-safety for --prepare is needed, double buffering
can be enabled.
The parameter innodb_log_checksums=OFF can be used to ignore redo log
checksums in --backup.
Some messages have been cleaned up.
Unless --export is specified, Mariabackup will not deal with undo log.
The InnoDB mini-transaction redo log is not only about user-level
transactions; it is actually about mini-transactions. To avoid confusion,
call it the redo log, not transaction log.
We disable any undo log processing in --prepare.
Because MariaDB 10.2 supports indexed virtual columns, the
undo log processing would need to be able to evaluate virtual column
expressions. To reduce the amount of code dependencies, we will not
process any undo log in prepare.
This means that the --export option must be disabled for now.
This also means that the following options are redundant
and have been removed:
xtrabackup --apply-log-only
innobackupex --redo-only
In addition to disabling any undo log processing, we will disable any
further changes to data pages during --prepare, including the change
buffer merge. This means that restoring incremental backups should
reliably work even when change buffering is being used on the server.
Because of this, preparing a backup will not generate any further
redo log, and the redo log file can be safely deleted. (If the
--export option is enabled in the future, it must generate redo log
when processing undo logs and buffered changes.)
In --prepare, we cannot easily know if a partial backup was used,
especially when restoring a series of incremental backups. So, we
simply warn about any missing files, and ignore the redo log for them.
FIXME: Enable the --export option.
FIXME: Improve the handling of the MLOG_INDEX_LOAD record, and write
a test that initiates a backup while an ALGORITHM=INPLACE operation
is creating indexes or rebuilding a table. An error should be detected
when preparing the backup.
FIXME: In --incremental --prepare, xtrabackup_apply_delta() should
ensure that if FSP_SIZE is modified, the file size will be adjusted
accordingly.
The option was basically duplicating InnoDB functionality.
Persistent statistics can be accessed via the tables
mysql.innodb_table_stats and mysql.innodb_index_stats.
due to different packaging issues.
Also, Percona thinks that tar support has many limitations
and should be removed as well( see discussion in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona-xtrabackup/+bug/1681721)
there is an alternative streaming format xbstream that is supported and
does not have these limitations.
Throttling only works with when creating backup. Attempt to use it with
--copy-back results in crash, since throttle events are not initialized.
Thus, ignore throttling unless --backup is given.
