The counter handler_read_key (SSV::ha_read_key_count) is incremented
incorrectly.
The mysql server maintains a per thread system_status_var (SSV)
object. This object contains among other things the counter
SSV::ha_read_key_count. The purpose of this counter is to measure the
number of requests to read a row based on a key (or the number of
index lookups).
This counter was wrongly incremented in the
ha_innobase::innobase_get_index(). The fix removes
this increment statement (for both innodb and innodb_plugin).
The various callers of the innobase_get_index() was checked to
determine if anybody must increment this counter (if they first call
innobase_get_index() and then perform an index lookup). It was found
that no caller of innobase_get_index() needs to worry about the
SSV::ha_read_key_count counter.
In the ON UPDATE CASCADE clause of FOREIGN KEY constraints, the
calculated update vector was not fully initialized. This bug was
introduced in the InnoDB Plugin when implementing support for
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC.
Additionally, the data type information was not initialized, but
apparently it has never been needed in this case. Nevertheless, it is
not good programming practice to pass uninitialized values around.
calc_row_difference(): Declare the update field uninitialized in
Valgrind. Copy the data type information as well, except when the
field is SQL NULL. In the built-in InnoDB, initialize
ufield->extern_storage = FALSE (an initialization bug that had gone
unnoticed this far). The InnoDB Plugin and later have this flag to
dfield_t and have always initialized it properly.
row_ins_cascade_calc_update_vec(): Reduce the scope of some
pointers. Initialize orig_len. (This caused the bug in InnoDB Plugin
and later.)
row_ins_foreign_check_on_constraint(): Simplify a condition. Declare
the update vector uninitialized.

Bug#54678: InnoDB, TRUNCATE, ALTER, I_S SELECT, crash or deadlock
- Incompatible change: truncate no longer resorts to a row by
row delete if the storage engine does not support the truncate
method. Consequently, the count of affected rows does not, in
any case, reflect the actual number of rows.
- Incompatible change: it is no longer possible to truncate a
table that participates as a parent in a foreign key constraint,
unless it is a self-referencing constraint (both parent and child
are in the same table). To work around this incompatible change
and still be able to truncate such tables, disable foreign checks
with SET foreign_key_checks=0 before truncate. Alternatively, if
foreign key checks are necessary, please use a DELETE statement
without a WHERE condition.
Problem description:
The problem was that for storage engines that do not support
truncate table via a external drop and recreate, such as InnoDB
which implements truncate via a internal drop and recreate, the
delete_all_rows method could be invoked with a shared metadata
lock, causing problems if the engine needed exclusive access
to some internal metadata. This problem originated with the
fact that there is no truncate specific handler method, which
ended up leading to a abuse of the delete_all_rows method that
is primarily used for delete operations without a condition.
Solution:
The solution is to introduce a truncate handler method that is
invoked when the engine does not support truncation via a table
drop and recreate. This method is invoked under a exclusive
metadata lock, so that there is only a single instance of the
table when the method is invoked.
Also, the method is not invoked and a error is thrown if
the table is a parent in a non-self-referencing foreign key
relationship. This was necessary to avoid inconsistency as
some integrity checks are bypassed. This is inline with the
fact that truncate is primarily a DDL operation that was
designed to quickly remove all data from a table.
Support returning 512 and 511 pages for the buffer pool size, this
is undeterministic and probably depends on alignment issues.
The default buffer pool size is 8M (512) pages, which is set in
include/default_mysqld.cnf. So the previous "replace_result 8192 8191"
had no effect.
Extract part of innodb.innodb into innodb.innodb_misc1
This is needed in order to be able to more easily debug this test,
under valgrind, it is too huge.
