When master and slave have different schemas, in particular different
AUTO_INCREMENT columns, INSERT_ID events logged for a given table on
master may be applied to a different table on slave on SBR, e.g.:
master has one table (t1) with one auto-inc column and another table
(t2) without auto-inc column, on slave t1 does not have auto-inc
column (despite having the same columns) and t2 has a auto-inc
column. The INSERT_ID that is intended for t1, since t1 on slave
doesn't have auto-inc column is used on t2, causing consistency
problems.
To fix this incorrect behaviour, auto-inc interval allocation via
INSERT_ID is made effectively terminated at the end of top-level
statements on slave and binlog replay.
The problem is related to the changes made in bug#13025132.
get_partition_set can do dynamic pruning which limits the partitions
to scan even further. This is not accounted for when setting
the correct start of the preallocated record buffer used in
the priority queue, thus leading to wrong buffer is used
(including wrong preset partitioning id, connected to that buffer).
Solution is to fast forward the buffer pointer to point to the correct
partition record buffer.
THREAD POOLING STRESS TEST
PROBLEM:
Connection stress tests which consists of concurrent
kill connections interleaved with mysql ping queries
cause the mysqld server which uses thread pool scheduler
to crash.
FIX:
Killing a connection involves shutdown and close of client
socket and this can cause EPOLLHUP(or EPOLLERR) events to be
to be queued and handled after disarming and cleanup of
of the connection object (THD) is being done.We disarm the
the connection by modifying the epoll mask to zero which
ensure no events come and release the ownership of waiting
thread that collect events and then do the cleanup of THD.
object.As per the linux kernel epoll source code (
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+*/fs/eventpoll.c#L1771), EPOLLHUP
(or EPOLLERR) can't be masked even if we set EPOLL mask
to zero. So we disarm the connection and thus prevent
execution of any query processing handler/queueing to
client ctx. queue by removing the client fd from the epoll
set via EPOLL_CTL_DEL. Also there is a race condition which
involve the following threads:
1) Thread X executing KILL CONNECTION Y and is in THD::awake
and using mysys_var (holding LOCK_thd_data).
2) Thread Y in tp_process_event executing and is being killed.
3) Thread Z receives KILL flag internally and possible call
the tp_thd_cleanup function which set thread session variable
and changing mysys_var.
The fix for the above race is to set thread session variable
under LOCK_thd_data.
We also do not call THD::awake if we found the thread in the
thread list that is to be killed but it's KILL_CONNECTION flag
set thus avoiding any possible concurrent cleanup. This patch
is approved by Mikael Ronstrom via email review.
Analysis
---------
my_stat() calls stat() and if the stat() call fails we try to set
the variable my_errno which is actually a thread specific data .
We try to get the address of this thread specific data using
my_pthread_getspecifc(),but for the purge thread we have not defined
any thread specific data so it returns null and when dereferencing
null we get a segmentation fault.
init_available_charsets() seen in the core stack is invoked
through pthread_once() .pthread_once is used for one time
initialization.Since free_charsets() is called before innodb plugin
shutdown ,purge thread calls init_avaliable_charsets() which leads
to the crash.
Fix
---
Call free_charsets() after the innodb plugin shutdown,since purge
threads are still using the charsets.

VARIABLES
Analysis:
-------------
After executing the query, new value of the user defined
variables are set in the function "select_dumpvar::send_data".
"select_dumpvar::send_data" first calls function
"Item_func_set_user_var::save_item_result()". This function
checks the nullness of the Item_field passed as parameter
to it and saves it. The nullness of item is stored with
arg[0]'s null_value flag. Then "select_dumpvar::send_data" calls
"Item_func_set_user_var::update()" which notices null
result that was saved and calls "Item_func_set_user_var::
update_hash". But here null_value is not set and args[0]
is different from that given to function "Item_func_set_user_var::
set_item_result()". This causes "Item_func_set_user_var::
update_hash" function to believe that its getting non-null value.
"user_var_entry::length" set to 0 and hence "user_var_entry::value"
is made to point to extra_area allocated in "user_var_entry".
And "Item_func_set_user_var::update_hash" tries to write
at memory beyond extra_area for result type DECIMAL. Because of
this invalid write issue is reported by Valgrind.
Before this bug was introduced, we avoided this problem by
creating "Item_func_set_user_var" object with the same
Item_field as arg[0] and as parameter to
Item_func_set_user_var::save_item_result(). But now
they are refering to different args[0]. Because of this
null_value flag set in parameter Item_field in function
"Item_func_set_user_var::save_item_result()" is not
reflected in "Item_func_set_user_var" object.
Fix:
------------
This issue is reported on versions 5.5.24. Issue does not exists
in 5.5.23, 5.1, 5.6 and trunk.
This issue was introduced by
revid:georgi.kodinov@oracle.com-20120309130449-82e3bs5v3et1x0ef (fix for
bug #12408412), which was pushed into 5.5 and later releases. This patch
has later been reversed in 5.6 and trunk by
revid:norvald.ryeng@oracle.com-20121010135242-xj34gg73h04hrmyh (fix for
bug #14664077). Backported this patch in 5.5 also to fix this issue.
PROBLEM
-------
optimize on partiton will recreate the whole table
instead of just partition.
ANALYSIS
--------
At present innodb doesn't support optimize option ,so we do a rebuild of the
whole table and then call analyze() on the table.Presently for any optimize()
option (on table or partition) we display the following info to the user
"Table does not support optimize, doing recreate + analyze instead".
FIX
---
It was decided for GA versions(5.1 and 5.5) whenever the user tries to
optimize a partition(s) we will will display the following info the user
"Table does not support optimize on partitions.
All partitions will be rebuilt and analyzed."
Earlier partitions were not analyzed.Now all partitions will be analyzed.
If the user wants to optimize the whole table ,we will display the
previous info to the user. i.e
"Table does not support optimize, doing recreate + analyze instead"
For 5.6+ versions we will raise a new bug to support optimize() options
in innodb.

DISABLE AND ENABLED DURING DDL OPERATION
PROBLEM: Same thread trying to acquire the same mutex
second time leads to hang/server crash.
While [un]installing audit_log plugin
a thread acquires the LOCK_plugin mutex
and after successful initialization tries
to write in mysql.plugin table. It holds
this mutex for a long time. If some how
plugin table is corrupted then a write to
plugin table will throw an error, thread try
to log this error in the audit_log plugin,
doing so it tries to acquire the mutex
again and results is server hang/crash.
SOLUTION: Releasing the LOCK_plugin mutex before
writing in mysql.plugin table. We dont
need to hold this mutex as thread already
acquired a TL_WRITE lock on mysql.plugin
table.
When a DML statement is issued, and if the index merge
access method is chosen, then many rows from the
storage engine will be locked because of the way the
algorithm works. Many rows will be locked, but they
will not be part of the final result set.
To reduce the excessive locking, the locks of unmatched
rows are released by this patch. This patch will
affect only transactions with isolation level
equal to or less stricter than READ COMMITTED. This is
because of the behaviour of ha_innobase::unlock_row().

Problem:-
When we execute a query which has subquery with GROUP BY, ORDER BY and have a
BLOB column,results a memory leak.
Analysis:-
In case of subquery, which have GROUP BY on BLOB and a ORDER BY on other field
and BLOB is not a key. We allocate a tmp buffer to copy_field to take care of
BLOB value.This copy_field value can have copies of its in two join(objects),
so while freeing this copy_field we have to take care that it is

Problem:-
using last_insert_id() on an auto_incremented bigint unsigned does
not work for values which are greater than max-bigint-signed.
Analysis:-
last_insert_id() returns the first auto_incremented value for a column
and an auto_incremented value can have only positive values.
In our code, when we are initializing a last_insert_id object, we are
taking it as a signed BIGINT, So when the auto_incremented value reaches
greater than max signed bigint, last_insert_id gives negative result.
Solution:
When we are fetching the value from last_insert_id, We are setting the
unsigned_flag, so that it take only unsigned BIGINT value.

This bug had two problems:
P1) Reads out of bounds;
P2) Writes out of bounds.
PROBLEM P1
----------
User_var_log_event unmarshalling from binlog was not performing range
checks when using name_len and val_len variables to walk on event
buffer.
Added range checks to User_var_log_event unmarshalling to prevent
unmarshalling errors.
PROBLEM P2
----------
User_var_log_event value was allocated on thread stack, what caused
stack frame errors when User_var_log_event value was bigger than thread
stack size.
Currently value is allocated on heap memory.
PRIVILEGES
Description: (user,host) pair from security context is used
privilege checking at the time of granting or
revoking proxy privileges. This creates problem
when server is started with
--skip-name-resolve option because host will not
contain any value. Checks should be dependent on
consistent values regardless the way server is
started. Further, privilege check should use
(priv_user,priv_host) pair rather than values
obtained from inbound connection because
this pair represents the correct account context
obtained from mysql.user table.
CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT OPTION
A transaction is started with a consistent snapshot. After
the transaction is started new indexes are added to the
table. Now when we issue an update statement, the optimizer
chooses an index. When the index scan is being initialized
via ha_innobase::change_active_index(), InnoDB reports
the error code HA_ERR_TABLE_DEF_CHANGED, with message
stating that "insufficient history for index".
This error message is propagated up to the SQL layer. But
the my_error() api is never called. The statement level
diagnostics area is not updated with the correct error
status (it remains in Diagnostics_area::DA_EMPTY).
Hence the following check in the Protocol::end_statement()
fails.
516 case Diagnostics_area::DA_EMPTY:
517 default:
518 DBUG_ASSERT(0);
519 error= send_ok(thd->server_status, 0, 0, 0, NULL);
520 break;
The fix is to backport the fix of bugs 14365043, 11761652
and 11746399.

When a SP handler is activated, memory is allocated to hold the
MESSAGE_TEXT for the condition that caused the activation.
The problem was that this memory was allocated on the MEM_ROOT belonging
to the stored program. Since this MEM_ROOT is not freed until the
stored program ends, a stored program that causes lots of handler
activations can start using lots of memory. In 5.1 and earlier the
problem did not exist as no MESSAGE_TEXT was allocated if a condition
was raised with a handler present. However, this behavior lead to
a number of other issues such as Bug#23032.
This patch fixes the problem by allocating enough memory for the
necessary MESSAGE_TEXTs in the SP MEM_ROOT when the SP starts and
then re-using this memory each time a handler is activated.
This is the 5.5 version of the patch.
This bug depends on cmake version.
For cmake 2.6 (which is still in use for some pushbuild trees)
the main build would succeed, even if create_initial_db failed.
The problem was the chaining of commands in the CUSTOM_COMMAND
to produce 'initdb.dep'. It first invokes cmake to run mysqld,
then invokes 'touch' to create the file. Moving the 'touch'
command makes the error propagate properly for both cmake 2.6 and 2.8
Follow-up patch - Fix broken build:
error: format ‘%u’ expects argument of type ‘unsigned int’,
but argument 2 has type ‘key_part_map {aka long unsigned int}’
[-Werror=format]
n_child_sum_items kept increasing.
Since it is used for calculating the size of ref_pointer_array,
we will allocate larger and larger chunks of memory, until we hit some
operating system limit.
The memory is free()d at disconnect, but is most likely *not*
returned to the operating system.
When a client connects to a MySQL server, first a THD object is created.
If there are any idle server threads waiting, the THD object is then added
to a list and a server thread is woken up. This thread then retrieves the
THD object from the list and starts executing.
The problem was that this list of THD objects waiting for a server thread,
was not working in a FIFO fashion, but rather LIFO. This is unfair, as it means
that the last THD added (=last client connected) will be assigned a server
thread first.
Note however that for this to be a problem, several clients must be able
to connect and have THD objects constructed before any server threads
manages to be woken up. This is not a very likely scenario.
This patch fixes the problem by changing the THD list to work FIFO
rather than LIFO.
This is the 5.1/5.5 version of the patch.
BACKGROUND:
In certain situations DROP USER fails to remove all privileges
belonging to user being dropped from in-memory structures.
Current workaround is to do DROP USER twice in scenario below
OR doing FLUSH PRIVILEGES after doing DROP USER.
ANALYSIS:
In MySQL, When we grant some stored routines privileges to a
user they are stored in their respective hash.
When doing DROP USER all the stored routine privilege entries
associated with that user has to be deleted from its respective
hash.
The root cause for this bug is some entries from the hash
are not getting deleted.
The problem is that code that deletes entries from the hash tries
to do so while iterating over it, without taking enough measures
to address the fact that such deletion can reshuffle elements in
the hash. If the user/administrator creates the same user again
he is thrown an error 'Error 1396 ER_CANNOT_USER' from MySQL.
This prompts the user to either do FLUSH PRIVILEGES or do DROP USER
again. This behaviour is not desirable as it is a workaround and
does not solves the problem mentioned above.
FIX:
This bug is fixed by introducing a dynamic array to store the
pointersto all stored routine privilege objects that either have
to be deleted or updated. This is done in 3 steps.
Step 1: Fetching the element from the hash and checking whether
it is to be deleted or updated.
Step 2: Storing the pointer to that privilege object in dynamic array.
Step 3: Traversing the dynamic array to perform the appropriate action
either delete or update.
This is a much cleaner way to delete or update the privilege entries
associated with some user and solves the problem mentioned above.
Also the code has been refactored a bit by introducing an enum
instead of hard coded numbers used for respective dynamic arrays
and hashes in handle_grant_struct() function.
QUOTING IN REPLICATION
Problem: Misquoting or unquoted identifiers may lead to
incorrect statements to be logged to the binary log.
Fix: we use specialized functions to append quoted identifiers in
the statements generated by the server.
INC_HOST_ERRORS() IS CALLED.
Issue : Sequence of calling inc_host_errors()
and reset_host_errors() required some
changes in order to maintain correct
connection error count.
Solution : Call to reset_host_errors() is shifted
to a location after which no calls to
inc_host_errors() are made.
Problem:
=======
trx_data->empty() assert happens at `binlog_close_connection'
Analysis:
========
trx_data->empty() function checks for no pending events
and the transaction cache to be empty.This function returns
"true" if no pending events are present and cache is empty.
Otherwise it returns false. `binlog_close_connection' call
expects the above function to return true. But if the
return value is false then assert is raised.
This bug was reproducible in a diskfull scenario. In this
disk full scenario try to do an insert operation so that
a new pending event is created and flushing this pending
event fails. Due to this failure the server goes down
and invokes `binlog_close_connection' for clean closure.
Since the pending event still remains the assert is caused.
This assert is caused only in non transactional databases.
Fix:
===
In a disk full scenario when the insertion fails the
transaction is rolled back and `binlog_end_trans`
is called to flush the pending events. But flush operation
fails as the disk is full and the function simply returns
`1' without taking any action to delete the pending event.
This leaves the event to remain till the closure of
connection. `delete pending' statement has been added to
do the required clean up action.
An "orthographic" typo in User_var::set_deferred() was made in fixes for
bug@14275000. While editing the signature of the initial patch to remove
the only argument, the assigned value of the argument remained in the body ...
to be successfully compiled (!) thanks to names coincidence:
the arg to User_var method and its member.
Fixed with correcting the typo.
The partitioning engine does not implement index_next for partitions
which return HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND in index_read_map.
If HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND was returned by a partition during
index_read_map, that partition would not be included in following
calls to index_next. If no partition returned a row in index_read_map,
then the subsequent call to index_next would try to use a non existing
handler (index out of bound).
Even after fixing the index out of bound if at least one partition
returned.
So it is really two connected bugs
1) crash due to index out of bound (-1 unsigned).
2) not including partitions that returned HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND.
Fixed by recording the partitions that returned HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND,
and include them too when doing handle_ordered_next the first time.
