TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK are incompatible".
The problem was that FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK
which was issued when other connection has acquired global
read lock using FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK was blocked
and has to wait until global read lock is released.
This issue stemmed from the fact that FLUSH TABLES <list>
WITH READ LOCK implementation has acquired X metadata locks
on tables to be flushed. Since these locks required acquiring
of global IX lock this statement was incompatible with global
read lock.
This patch addresses problem by using SNW metadata type of
lock for tables to be flushed by FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH
READ LOCK. It is OK to acquire them without global IX lock
as long as we won't try to upgrade those locks. Since SNW
locks allow concurrent statements using same table FLUSH
TABLE <list> WITH READ LOCK now has to wait until old
versions of tables to be flushed go away after acquiring
metadata locks. Since such waiting can lead to deadlock
MDL deadlock detector was extended to take into account
waits for flush and resolve such deadlocks.
As a bonus code in open_tables() which was responsible for
waiting old versions of tables to go away was refactored.
Now when we encounter old version of table in open_table()
we don't back-off and wait for all old version to go away,
but instead wait for this particular table to be flushed.
Such approach supported by deadlock detection should reduce
number of scenarios in which FLUSH TABLES aborts concurrent
multi-statement transactions.
Note that active FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK still
blocks concurrent FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement
as the former keeps tables open and thus prevents the
latter statement from doing flush.
mysql-test/include/handler.inc:
Adjusted test case after changing status which is set
when FLUSH TABLES waits for tables to be flushed from
"Flushing tables" to "Waiting for table".
mysql-test/r/flush.result:
Added test which checks that "flush tables <list> with

bug #52044 "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK and FLUSH TABLES
<list> WITH READ LOCK are incompatible".
mysql-test/r/mdl_sync.result:

causes deadlocks to the coverage of MDL deadlock detector.

sql/lock.cc:
Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/mdl.cc:
Now MDL deadlock detector takes into account information
about waits for table flushes when searching for deadlock.
To implement this change:
- Declaration of enum_deadlock_weight and
Deadlock_detection_visitor were moved to mdl.h header
to make them available to the code in table.cc which
implements deadlock detector traversal through edges
of waiters graph representing waiting for flush.
- Since now MDL_context may wait not only for metadata
lock but also for table to be flushed an abstract
Wait_for_edge class was introduced. Its descendants
MDL_ticket and Flush_ticket incapsulate specifics
of inspecting waiters graph when following through
edge representing wait of particular type.
We no longer require global IX metadata lock when acquiring
SNW or SNRW locks. Such locks are needed only when metadata
locks of these types are upgraded to X locks. This allows
to use SNW locks in FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK
implementation and keep the latter compatible with global
read lock.
sql/mdl.h:
Now MDL deadlock detector takes into account information

Wait_for_edge class was introduced. Its descendants
MDL_ticket and Flush_ticket incapsulate specifics
of inspecting waiters graph when following through
edge representing wait of particular type.
- Deadlock_detection_visitor now has m_table_shares_visited
member which allows to support recursive locking for
LOCK_open. This is required when deadlock detector
inspects waiters graph which contains several edges
representing waits for flushes or needs to come through
the such edge more than once.
sql/mysqld.cc:
Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/mysqld.h:
Removed COND_refresh condition variable. See comment
for sql_base.cc for details.
sql/sql_base.cc:
Changed approach to how threads are waiting for table
to be flushed. Now thread that wants to wait for old
table to go away subscribes for notification by adding
Flush_ticket to table's share and waits using
MDL_context::m_wait object. Once table gets flushed
(i.e. all tables are closed and table share is ready
to be destroyed) all such waiters are notified
individually.
Thanks to this change MDL deadlock detector can take
such waits into account.
To implement this/as result of this change:
- tdc_wait_for_old_versions() was replaced with
tdc_wait_for_old_version() which waits for individual
old share to go away and which is called by open_table()
after finding out that share is outdated. We don't
need to perform back-off before such waiting thanks
to the fact that deadlock detector now sees such waits.
- As result Open_table_ctx::m_mdl_requests became
unnecessary and was removed. We no longer allocate
copies of MDL_request objects on MEM_ROOT when
MYSQL_OPEN_FORCE_SHARED/SHARED_HIGH_PRIO flags are
in effect.
- close_cached_tables() and tdc_wait_for_old_version()
share code which implements waiting for share to be
flushed - the both use TABLE_SHARE::wait_until_flush()
method. Thanks to this close_cached_tables() supports
timeouts and has extra parameter for this.
- Open_table_context::OT_MDL_CONFLICT enum element was
renamed to OT_CONFLICT as it is now also used in cases
when back-off is required to resolve deadlock caused
by waiting for flush and not metadata lock.
- In cases when we discover that current connection tries
to open tables from different generation we now simply
back-off and restart process of opening tables. To
support this Open_table_context::OT_REOPEN_TABLES enum
element was added.
- COND_refresh condition variable became unnecessary and
was removed.
- mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock() no longer wakes
up connections waiting for flush as all such connections
can be waken up by deadlock detector if necessary.
sql/sql_base.h:
- close_cached_tables() now has one more parameter -
timeout for waiting for table to be flushed.
- Open_table_context::OT_MDL_CONFLICT enum element was
renamed to OT_CONFLICT as it is now also used in cases
when back-off is required to resolve deadlock caused
by waiting for flush and not metadata lock.
Added new OT_REOPEN_TABLES enum element to be used in
cases when we need to restart open tables process even
in the middle of transaction.
- Open_table_ctx::m_mdl_requests became unnecessary and
was removed.
sql/sql_class.h:
Added assert ensuring that we won't use LOCK_open mutex
with THD::enter_cond(). Otherwise deadlocks can arise in
MDL deadlock detector.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Changed FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK to take SNW
metadata locks instead of X locks on tables to be flushed.
Since we no longer require global IX lock to be taken
when SNW locks are taken this makes this statement
compatible with FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement.
Since SNW locks allow other connections to have table
opened FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK now has to
wait during open_tables() for old version to go away.
Such waits can lead to deadlocks which will be detected
by MDL deadlock detector which now takes waits for table
to be flushed into account.
Also adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
table to be flushed.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK now needs only SNW
metadata locks on tables.
sql/sys_vars.cc:
Adjusted code after adding one more parameter for
close_cached_tables() call - timeout for waiting for
table to be flushed.
sql/table.cc:
Implemented new approach to how threads are waiting for
table to be flushed. Now thread that wants to wait for
old table to go away subscribes for notification by
adding Flush_ticket to table's share and waits using
MDL_context::m_wait object. Once table gets flushed
(i.e. all tables are closed and table share is ready
to be destroyed) all such waiters are notified
individually. This change allows to make such waits
visible inside of MDL deadlock detector.
To do it:
- Added list of waiters/Flush_tickets to TABLE_SHARE
class.
- Changed free_table_share() to postpone freeing of
share memory until last waiter goes away and to
wake up subscribed waiters.
- Added TABLE_SHARE::wait_until_flushed() method which
implements subscription to the list of waiters for
table to be flushed and waiting for this event.
Implemented interface which allows to expose waits for
flushes to MDL deadlock detector:
- Introduced Flush_ticket class a descendant of
Wait_for_edge class.
- Added TABLE_SHARE::find_deadlock() method which allows
deadlock detector to find out what contexts are still
using old version of table in question (i.e. to find
out what contexts are waited for by owner of
Flush_ticket).
sql/table.h:

Fix warnings flagged by the new warning option -Wunused-but-set-variable

option causes a warning whenever a local variable is assigned to but is
later unused. It also warns about meaningless pointer dereferences.
For queries with order by clauses that employed filesort usage of
virtual column references in select lists could trigger assertion
failures. It happened because a wrong vcol_set bitmap was used for
filesort. It turned out that filesort required its own vcol_set bitmap.
Made management of the vcol_set bitmaps similar to the management
of the read_set and write_set bitmaps.
If the expression for a virtual column of table contained datetime
comparison then the execution of the second query that used this
virtual column caused a crash. It happened because the execution
of the first query that used this virtual column inserted a cached
item into the expression tree. The cached tree was allocated in
the statement memory while the expression tree was allocated in
the table memory.
Now the cached items that are inserted into expressions for virtual
columns with datetime comparisons are always allocated in the same
mem_root as the expressions for virtual columns. So now the inserted
cached items are valid for any queries that use these virtual columns.
There were two problems that caused wrong results reported with this bug.
1. In some cases stored(persistent) virtual columns were not marked
in the write_set and in the vcol_set bitmaps.
2. If the list of fields in an insert command was empty then the values of
the stored virtual columns were set to default.
To fix the first problem the function st_table::mark_virtual_columns_for_write
was modified. Now the function has a parameter that says whether the virtual
columns are to be marked for insert or for update.
To fix the second problem a special handling of empty insert lists is
added in the function fill_record().
There was no error thrown when creating a table with a virtual table
computed by an expression returning a row.
This caused a crash when inserting into the table.
Removed periods at the end of the error messages for virtual columns.
Adjusted output in test result files accordingly.

Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.

for bug 36569
Execution of single-table UPDATE and DELETE statements did not use the
same optimizer as was used in the compilation of SELECT statements.
Instead, it had an optimizer of its own that did not take into account
that you can omit sorting by retrieving rows using an index.
Extra optimization has been added: when applicable, single-table
UPDATE/DELETE statements use an existing index instead of filesort. A
corresponding SELECT query would do the former.
Also handling of the DESC ordering expression has been added when
reverse index scan is applicable.
From now on most single table UPDATE and DELETE statements show the
same disk access patterns as the corresponding SELECT query. We verify
this by comparing the result of SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Sort%
Currently the get_index_for_order function
a) checks quick select index (if any) for compatibility with the
ORDER expression list or
b) chooses the cheapest available compatible index, but only if
the index scan is cheaper than filesort.
Second way is implemented by the new test_if_cheaper_ordering
function (extracted part the test_if_skip_sort_order()).

strict aliasing violations.
Essentially, the problem is that large parts of the server were
developed in simpler times (last decades, pre C99 standard) when
strict aliasing and compilers supporting such optimizations were
rare to non-existent. Thus, when compiling the server with a modern
compiler that uses strict aliasing rules to perform optimizations,
there are several places in the code that might trigger undefined
behavior.
As evinced by some recent bugs, GCC does a somewhat good of job
misoptimizing such code, but on the other hand also gives warnings
about suspicious code. One problem is that the warnings aren't
always accurate, yet we can't afford to just shut them off as we
might miss real cases. False-positive cases are aggravated mostly
by casts that are likely to trigger undefined behavior.
The solution is to start a cleanup process focused on fixing and
reducing the amount of strict-aliasing related warnings produced
by GCC and others compilers. A good deal of noise reduction can
be achieved by just removing useless casts that are product of
historical cruft and are likely to trigger undefined behavior if
dereferenced.

include/my_getopt.h:
Use a void pointer type as the opaque type to avoid problems with type
incompatibility -- GCC issues warnings when the type name is not type
compatible with a operand. As a side bonus, a explicit cast won't be
necessary anymore.
include/sslopt-longopts.h:
Remove now-unnecessary casts.
Break up large strings.

Update opaque type and introduce a type definition for the
argument to my_getopt_register_get_addr.

Break up large strings.
Update mysql_getopt_value prototype (the old prototype
was different from the definition anyway).
sql/sql_plugin.cc:
The type of a pointer to a function must be compatible with the
pointed-to function type, otherwise the behavior is undefined.
sql/table.cc:
The variable buf pointer to pointer to pointer to constant char
could improperly alias a incompatible type in call to fix_type_
pointers. Since this was actually dead code, it is simply removed.
sql/unireg.cc:
Remove call to get_form_pos. The code creates a new FRM file which
is always truncated and writes the form position as 0. Hence, no
need to retrieve it, we now for sure it is 0.

Remove now-unnecessary casts.
storage/myisam/myisamlog.c:
A pointer to char was used to alias a pointer to pointer to
unsigned char, thus violating strict aliasing rules.
storage/myisam/myisampack.c:
Remove now-unnecessary casts.
strings/decimal.c:
Remove aliasing violation, printing the value is enough for
debugging purposes.
tests/mysql_client_test.c:
Remove now-unnecessary casts.

* remove handler::index_read_last()
* create handler::keyread_read_time() (was get_index_only_read_time() in opt_range.cc)
* ha_show_status() allows engine's show_status() to fail
* remove HTON_FLUSH_AFTER_RENAME
* fix key_cmp_if_same() to work for floats and doubles
* set table->status in the server, don't force engines to do it
* increment status vars in the server, don't force engines to do it
mysql-test/r/status_user.result:
correct test results - innodb was wrongly counting internal
index searches as handler_read_* calls.
sql/ha_partition.cc:
compensate for handler incrementing status counters -
we want to count only calls to underlying engines
sql/handler.h:
inline methods moved to sql_class.h
sql/key.cc:
simplify the check
sql/opt_range.cc:
move get_index_only_read_time to the handler class
sql/sp.cc:
don't use a key that's stored in the record buffer -
the engine can overwrite the buffer with anything, destroying the key
sql/sql_class.h:
inline handler methods that need to see THD and TABLE definitions
sql/sql_select.cc:
no ha_index_read_last_map anymore
sql/sql_table.cc:
remove HTON_FLUSH_AFTER_RENAME
sql/table.cc:
set HA_CAN_MEMCMP as appropriate
sql/tztime.cc:
don't use a key that's stored in the record buffer -
the engine can overwrite the buffer with anything, destroying the key
storage/myisam/ha_myisam.cc:
engines don't need to update table->status or use ha_statistic_increment anymore
storage/myisam/ha_myisam.h:
index_read_last_map is no more
mysql-test/suite/pbxt/r/mysqlshow.result:
update the forgotten test results
