MDEV-25604 Atomic DDL: Binlog event written upon recovery does not
have default database
The purpose of this task is to ensure that ALTER TABLE is atomic even if
the MariaDB server would be killed at any point of the alter table.
This means that either the ALTER TABLE succeeds (including that triggers,
the status tables and the binary log are updated) or things should be
reverted to their original state.
If the server crashes before the new version is fully up to date and
commited, it will revert to the original table and remove all
temporary files and tables.
If the new version is commited, crash recovery will use the new version,
and update triggers, the status tables and the binary log.
The one execption is ALTER TABLE .. RENAME .. where no changes are done
to table definition. This one will work as RENAME and roll back unless
the whole statement completed, including updating the binary log (if
enabled).
Other changes:
- Added handlerton->check_version() function to allow the ddl recovery
code to check, in case of inplace alter table, if the table in the
storage engine is of the new or old version.
- Added handler->table_version() so that an engine can report the current
version of the table. This should be changed each time the table
definition changes.
- Added ha_signal_ddl_recovery_done() and
handlerton::signal_ddl_recovery_done() to inform all handlers when
ddl recovery has been done. (Needed by InnoDB).
- Added handlerton call inplace_alter_table_committed, to signal engine
that ddl_log has been closed for the alter table query.
- Added new handerton flag
HTON_REQUIRES_NOTIFY_TABLEDEF_CHANGED_AFTER_COMMIT to signal when we
should call hton->notify_tabledef_changed() during
mysql_inplace_alter_table. This was required as MyRocks and InnoDB
needed the call at different times.
- Added function server_uuid_value() to be able to generate a temporary
xid when ddl recovery writes the query to the binary log. This is
needed to be able to handle crashes during ddl log recovery.
- Moved freeing of the frm definition to end of mysql_alter_table() to
remove duplicate code and have a common exit strategy.

InnoDB part of atomic ALTER TABLE
(Implemented by Marko Mäkelä)
innodb_check_version(): Compare the saved dict_table_t::def_trx_id
to determine whether an ALTER TABLE operation was committed.
We must correctly recover dict_table_t::def_trx_id for this to work.
Before purge removes any trace of DB_TRX_ID from system tables, it
will make an effort to load the user table into the cache, so that
the dict_table_t::def_trx_id can be recovered.
ha_innobase::table_version(): return garbage, or the trx_id that would
be used for committing an ALTER TABLE operation.
In InnoDB, table names starting with #sql-ib will remain special:
they will be dropped on startup. This may be revisited later in
MDEV-18518 when we implement proper undo logging and rollback
for creating or dropping multiple tables in a transaction.
Table names starting with #sql will retain some special meaning:
dict_table_t::parse_name() will not consider such names for
MDL acquisition, and dict_table_rename_in_cache() will treat such
names specially when handling FOREIGN KEY constraints.
Simplify InnoDB DROP INDEX.
Prevent purge wakeup
To ensure that dict_table_t::def_trx_id will be recovered correctly
in case the server is killed before ddl_log_complete(), we will block
the purge of any history in SYS_TABLES, SYS_INDEXES, SYS_COLUMNS
between ha_innobase::commit_inplace_alter_table(commit=true)
(purge_sys.stop_SYS()) and purge_sys.resume_SYS().
The completion callback purge_sys.resume_SYS() must be between
ddl_log_complete() and MDL release.

MyRocks support for atomic ALTER TABLE
(Implemented by Sergui Petrunia)
Implement these SE API functions:
- ha_rocksdb::table_version()
- hton->check_version = rocksdb_check_versionMyRocks data dictionary
now stores table version for each table.
(Absence of table version record is interpreted as table_version=0,
that is, which means no upgrade changes are needed)
- For inplace alter table of a partitioned table, call the underlying
handlerton when checking if the table is ok. This assumes that the
partition engine commits all changes at once.
The problem with the InnoDB table attribute encryption_key_id is that it is
not being persisted anywhere in InnoDB except if the table attribute
encryption is specified and is something else than encryption=default.
MDEV-17320 made it a hard error if encryption_key_id is specified to be
anything else than 1 in that case.
Ideally, we would always persist encryption_key_id in InnoDB. But, then we
would have to be prepared for the case that when encryption is being enabled
for a table whose encryption_key_id attribute refers to a non-existing key.
In MariaDB Server 10.1, our best option remains to not store anything
inside InnoDB. But, instead of returning the error that MDEV-17320
introduced, we should merely issue a warning that the specified
encryption_key_id is going to be ignored if encryption=default.
To improve the situation a little more, we will issue a warning if
SET [GLOBAL|SESSION] innodb_default_encryption_key_id is being set
to something that does not refer to an available encryption key.
Starting with MariaDB Server 10.2, thanks to MDEV-5800, we could open the
table definition from InnoDB side when the encryption is being enabled,
and actually fix the root cause of what was reported in MDEV-17320.
Background: Used encryption key_id is stored to encryption metadata
i.e. crypt_data that is stored on page 0 of the tablespace of the
table. crypt_data is created only if implicit encryption/not encryption
is requested i.e. ENCRYPTED=[YES|NO] table option is used
fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace on fil0fil.cc.
Later if encryption is enabled all tables that use default encryption
mode (i.e. no encryption table option is set) are encrypted with
default encryption key_id that is 1. See fil_crypt_start_encrypting_space on
fil0crypt.cc.
ha_innobase::check_table_options()
If default encryption is used and encryption is disabled, you may
not use nondefault encryption_key_id as it is not stored anywhere.
When MariaDB 10.1.0 introduced table options for encryption and
compression, it unnecessarily changed
ha_innobase::check_if_supported_inplace_alter() so that ALGORITHM=COPY
is forced when these parameters differ.
A better solution is to move the check to innobase_need_rebuild().
In that way, the ALGORITHM=INPLACE interface (yes, the syntax is
very misleading) can be used for rebuilding the table much more
efficiently, with merge sort, with no undo logging, and allowing
concurrent DML operations.
innodb_file_format=Barracuda is the default in MariaDB 10.2.
Do not set it, because the option will be removed in MariaDB 10.3.
Also, do not set innodb_file_per_table=1 because it is the default.
Note that MDEV-11828 should fix the test innodb.innodb-64k
already in 10.1.
Folloup: Made encryption rules too strict (and incorrect). Allow creating
table with ENCRYPTED=OFF with all values of ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID but create
warning that nondefault values are ignored. Allow creating table with
ENCRYPTED=DEFAULT if used key_id is found from key file (there was
bug on this) and give error if key_id is not found.
Analysis: Problem sees to be the fact that we allow creating or altering
table to use encryption_key_id that does not exists in case where
original table is not encrypted currently. Secondly we should not
do key rotation to tables that are not encrypted or tablespaces
that can't be found from tablespace cache.
Fix: Do not allow creating unencrypted table with nondefault encryption key
and do not rotate tablespaces that are not encrypted (FIL_SPACE_ENCRYPTION_OFF)
or can't be found from tablespace cache.
