6331ef3efd Bug #48940 MDL deadlocks against mysql_rm_db
This deadlock would occur between two connections A and B if statements
where executed in the following way:
1) Connection A executes a DML statement against table s1.t1 with
autocommit off. This causes a shared metadata lock on s1.t1 to be 
acquired. (With autocommit on, the metadata lock will be dropped once
the statment completes and the deadlock will not occour.)
2) Connection B tries to DROP DATABASE s1. This will block against the
metadata lock connection A holds on s1.t1. While blocking, connection B
will hold the LOCK_mysql_create_db mutex.
3) Connection A tries to ALTER DATABASE s1. This will block when trying
to get LOCK_mysql_create_db mutex held by connection B.
4) Deadlock between DROP DATABASE and ALTER DATABASE (which has autocommit
off).

If Connection A used an explicitly started transaction rather than having
autocommit off, this deadlock did not happen as ALTER DATABASE is 
disallowed inside transactions.

This patch fixes the problem by changing ALTER DATABASE to cause an
implicit commit before executing. This will cause the metadata 
lock on s1.t1 to be dropped, allowing DROP DATABASE to proceed. 
This will in turn cause the LOCK_mysql_create_db mutex to be unlocked, 
allowing ALTER DATABASE to proceed.

Note that SQL commands other than ALTER DATABASE that also use 
LOCK_mysql_create_db, already cause an implicit commit. 

Incompatible change: ALTER DATABASE (and its synonym ALTER SCHEMA)
now cause an implicit commit. This must be reflected in the 
documentation.

Test case added to schema.test.


sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Added CF_AUTO_COMMIT_TRANS to SQLCOM_ALTER_DB.
  
  Removed thd->active_transaction() checks from SQLCOM_DROP_DB, 
  SQLCOM_ALTER_DB_UPGRADE and SQLCOM_ALTER_DB as these statements
  cause an implicit commit.

Bug #48210 FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK deadlocks
           against concurrent CREATE PROCEDURE

This deadlock occured between
a) CREATE PROCEDURE (or other commands listed below)
b) FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK

If the execution of them happened in the following order:
- a) opens a table (e.g. mysql.proc)
- b) locks the global read lock (or GRL)
- a) sleeps inside wait_if_global_read_lock()
- b) increases refresh_version and sleeps waiting 
     for old tables to go away

Note that a) must start waiting on the GRL before FLUSH increases
refresh_version. Otherwise a) won't wait on the GRL and instead
close its tables for reopen, allowing FLUSH to complete and thus
avoid the deadlock.

With this patch the deadlock is avoided by making CREATE PROCEDURE
acquire a protection against global read locks before it starts
executing. This means that FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK will have
to wait until CREATE PROCEDURE completes before acquiring the global
read lock, thereby avoiding the deadlock.

This is implemented by introducing a new SQL command flag called
CF_PROTECT_AGAINST_GRL. Commands marked with this flag will
acquire a GRL protection in the beginning of mysql_execute_command().
This patch adds the flag to CREATE, ALTER and DROP for PROCEDURE
and FUNCTION, as well as CREATE USER, DROP USER, RENAME USER and 
REVOKE ALL. All these commands either call open_grant_tables() or
open_system_table_for_updated() which make them susceptible for
this deadlock.

The patch also adds the CF_PROTECT_AGAINST_GRL flag to a number
of commands that previously acquired GRL protection in their
respective SQLCOM case in mysql_execute_command().

Test case that checks for GRL protection for CREATE PROCEDURE
and CREATE USER added to mdl_sync.test.

Bug#42546 Backup: RESTORE fails, thinking it finds an existing table

The problem occured when a MDL locking conflict happened for a non-existent 
table between a CREATE and a INSERT statement. The code for CREATE 
interpreted this lock conflict to mean that the table existed, 
which meant that the statement failed when it should not have.
The problem could occur for CREATE TABLE, CREATE TABLE LIKE and
ALTER TABLE RENAME.

This patch fixes the problem for CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE.
It is based on code backported from the mysql-6.1-fk tree written
by Dmitry Lenev. CREATE now uses normal open_and_lock_tables() code 
to acquire exclusive locks. This means that for the test case in the bug 
description, CREATE will wait until INSERT completes so that it can 
get the exclusive lock. This resolves the reported bug.

The patch also prohibits CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE under 
LOCK TABLES. Note that this is an incompatible change and must 
be reflected in the documentation. Affected test cases have been
updated.

mdl_sync.test contains tests for CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE LIKE.

Fixing the issue for ALTER TABLE RENAME is beyond the scope of this
patch. ALTER TABLE cannot be prohibited from working under LOCK TABLES
as this could seriously impact customers and a proper fix would require
a significant rewrite.

Introduce a counter for protection against global read lock on thread level.

The functions for protection against global read lock sometimes need a local
variable to signal when the protection is set, and hence need to be released.
It would be better to control this behaviour via a counter on the THD struct,
telling how many times the protection has been claimed by the current thread.
A side-effect of the fix is that if protection is claimed twice for a thread,
only a simple increment is required for the second claim, instead of a
mutex-protected increment of the global variable protect_against_global_read_lock.


sql/lock.cc:
  Count how many times that we have claimed protection against global read lock.
  Assert that we really have the protection when releasing it.
  Added comments to all functions operating on global_read_lock.

Further, check_prepared_statement() in sql_prepare.cc has been
simplified by taking advantage of the CF_STATUS_COMMAND flag.

Note that no test case has been added.

Bug #47107 assert in notify_shared_lock on incorrect CREATE TABLE , HANDLER

Attempts to create a table (using CREATE TABLE, CREATE TABLE LIKE or
CREATE TABLE SELECT statements) which already existed and was opened
by the same connection through HANDLER statement, led to a stalled
connection (for production builds of the server) or to the server being
aborted due to an assertion failure (for debug builds of the server).

This problem was introduced by the new implementation of a metadata
locking subsystem and didn't affect earlier versions of the server.

The cause of the problem was that the HANDLER was not closed by CREATE TABLE
before CREATE tried to open and lock the table. Acquiring an exclusive MDL
lock on the table to be created would therefore fail since HANDLER
already had a shared MDL lock. This triggered an assert as the 
HANDLER and CREATE statements came from the same thread (self-deadlock).

This patch resolves the issue by closing any open HANDLERs on tables
to be created by CREATE TABLE, similar to what is already done for 
DROP and ALTER TABLE.

Test case added to create.test.

  Remove the list of requests from the MDL context.
  Requests for shared metadata locks acquired in open_tables()

  introduce a context class (Open_table_context), that collects
  all requests.
  A lot of minor cleanups and simplications that became possible

sql/event_db_repository.cc:
  Remove alloc_mdl_requests(). Now MDL_request instance is a member
  of TABLE_LIST, and init_one_table() initializes it.

  of binlog_mdl_request.
sql/lock.cc:

  Make acquire_shared_lock() signature consistent with

  Remove methods that are no longer used.
  Update comments.
sql/mdl.h:
  Implement an assignment operator that doesn't
  copy MDL_key (MDL_key::operator= is private and
  should remain private).
  This is a hack to work-around assignment of TABLE_LIST
  by value in several places. Such assignments violate
  encapsulation, since only perform a shallow copy.
  In most cases these assignments are a hack on their own.

  Remove assignment by-value of TABLE_LIST in
  TABLEOP_HOOKS. We can't carry over a granted
  MDL ticket from one table list to another.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Change alloc_mdl_requests() -> init_mdl_requests().
  @todo We can remove init_mdl_requests() altogether

  already have mdl requests initialized.
sql/sql_plugin.cc:
  Use init_one_table().
  THD::locked_tables_root is no more.
sql/sql_servers.cc:
  Use init_one_table().
sql/sql_show.cc:

  check for out of memory, follow the coding style.
sql/sql_table.cc:
  Update to work with TABLE_LIST::mdl_request by-value.
  Remove lock_table_name_if_not_cached().
  The code that used to delegate to it is quite simple and
  concise without it now.
sql/sql_udf.cc:
  Use init_one_table().
sql/sql_update.cc:

sql/table.cc:
  Move re-setting of mdl_requests for prepared statements

Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking

Currently the MySQL server does not keep metadata locks on
schema objects for the duration of a transaction, thus failing
to guarantee the integrity of the schema objects being used
during the transaction and to protect then from concurrent
DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
active transactions using the object being modified.

The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
transactions.

- Incompatible change:

If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
and trying to acquire them all in one go.

But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.

Let's consider an example:

A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.

At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
-- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.

- Incompatible change:

FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.

  transaction, or after explicit commits or rollbacks.
sql/sql_plugin.cc:
  
  Allocate MDL request on the stack as the use of the table
  is contained within the function. It will be removed from
  the context once close_thread_tables is called at the end
  of the function.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
  The problem is that the prepare phase of the CREATE TABLE
  statement takes a exclusive metadata lock lock and this can
  cause a self-deadlock the thread already holds a shared lock
  on the table being that should be created.
  
  The solution is to make the prepare phase take a shared
  metadata lock when preparing a CREATE TABLE statement. The
  execution of the statement will still acquire a exclusive
  lock, but won't cause any problem as it issues a implicit
  commit.
  
  After some discussions with stakeholders it has been decided that
  metadata locks acquired during a PREPARE statement must be released
  once the statement is prepared even if it is prepared within a multi
  statement transaction.

  Don't implicitly unlock locked tables. Issue a implicit commit

  The solution is to make the prepare phase take a shared
  metadata lock when preparing a CREATE TABLE statement. The
  execution of the statement will still acquire a exclusive
  lock, but won't cause any problem as it issues a implicit
  commit.
sql/transaction.cc:
  Release metadata locks after the implicitly committed due
  to a new transaction being started. Also, release metadata
  locks acquired after a savepoint if the transaction is rolled
  back to the save point.
  
  The problem is that in some cases transaction-long metadata locks
  could be released before the transaction was committed. This could
  happen when a active transaction was ended by a "START TRANSACTION"
  or "BEGIN" statement, in which case the metadata locks would be
  released before the actual commit of the active transaction.
  
  The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks to after the
  transaction has been implicitly committed. No test case is provided
  as the effort to provide one is too disproportional to the size of
  the fix.

DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
active transactions using the object being modified.

The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
transactions.

- Incompatible change:

If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
and trying to acquire them all in one go.

But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.

Let's consider an example:

A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.

At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
-- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.

- Incompatible change:

FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.

  WL#4284 "Transactional DDL locking"
  Review comments: "Objectify" the MDL API.
  MDL_request and MDL_context still need manual construction and
  destruction, since they are used in environment that is averse
  to constructors/destructors.


sql/mdl.cc:
  Improve comments.
  Add asserts to backup()/restore_from_backup()/merge() methods.
  Fix an order bug in the error path of mdl_acquire_exclusive_locks():
  we used to first free a ticket object, and only then exclude
  it from the list of tickets.
