The problem was that when using clang + asan, we do not get a correct value
for the thread stack as some local variables are not allocated at the
normal stack.
It looks like that for example clang 18.1.3, when compiling with
-O2 -fsanitize=addressan it puts local variables and things allocated by
alloca() in other areas than on the stack.
The following code shows the issue
Thread 6 "mariadbd" hit Breakpoint 3, do_handle_one_connection
(connect=0x5080000027b8,
put_in_cache=<optimized out>) at sql/sql_connect.cc:1399
THD *thd;

(gdb) p &thd
(THD **) 0x7fffedee7060
(gdb) p $sp
(void *) 0x7fffef4e7bc0
The address of thd is 24M away from the stack pointer
(gdb) info reg
...
rsp 0x7fffef4e7bc0 0x7fffef4e7bc0
...
r13 0x7fffedee7060 140737185214560
r13 is pointing to the address of the thd. Probably some kind of
"local stack" used by the sanitizer
I have verified this with gdb on a recursive call that calls alloca()
in a loop. In this case all objects was stored in a local heap,
not on the stack.
To solve this issue in a portable way, I have added two functions:
my_get_stack_pointer() returns the address of the current stack pointer.
The code is using asm instructions for intel 32/64 bit, powerpc,
arm 32/64 bit and sparc 32/64 bit.
Supported compilers are gcc, clang and MSVC.
For MSVC 64 bit we are using _AddressOfReturnAddress()
As a fallback for other compilers/arch we use the address of a local
variable.
my_get_stack_bounds() that will return the address of the base stack
and stack size using pthread_attr_getstack() or NtCurrentTed() with
fallback to using the address of a local variable and user provided
stack size.
Server changes are:
- Moving setting of thread_stack to THD::store_globals() using
my_get_stack_bounds().
- Removing setting of thd->thread_stack, except in functions that
allocates a lot on the stack before calling store_globals(). When
using estimates for stack start, we reduce stack_size with
MY_STACK_SAFE_MARGIN (8192) to take into account the stack used
before calling store_globals().
I also added a unittest, stack_allocation-t, to verify the new code.

The error was specific to threadpool/compressed protocol.
set_thd_idle() set socket state to idle twice, causing assert failure.
This happens if unread compressed data on connection,after query was
finished. On a protocol level, this means a single compression packet
contains multiple command packets.
Do not repeat yourself.
Instead of having the same DBUG_EXECUTE_IF code in threadpool and
thread-per-connection, add this code to setup_connection_thread_globals()
which is executed in all scheduling modes.
Prior to this patch, it is possible to access freed memory
(THD::event_scheduler) from tp_post_kill_notification().
With this patch, memory is freed only when THD is no more accessible
from other threads, i.e after it is removed from the thread_list.
Amend check for unread client data in threadpool.
THD::NET will have unread data, in case client uses compression, and
wraps multiple commands into a single compression packet
MariaDB C/C sends COM_STMT_RESET+COM_STMT_EXECUTE, and wraps it into
a single compressed packet, when compression is on, thus trying to use
compression and prepared statements against a threadpool-enabled server
will result into a hang, before this patch.
Due to restricted size of the threadpool, execution of client queries can
be delayed (queued) for a while. This delay was interpreted as client
inactivity, and connection is closed, if client idle time + queue time
exceeds wait_timeout.
But users did not expect queue time to be included into wait_timeout.
This patch changes the behavior. We don't close connection anymore,
if there is some unread data present on connection,
even if wait_timeout is exceeded. Unread data means that client
was not idle, it sent a query, which we did not have time to process yet.
All changes (except one) is of type
thd->transaction. -> thd->transaction->
thd->transaction points by default to 'thd->default_transaction'
This allows us to 'easily' have multiple active transactions for a
THD object, like when reading data from the mysql.proc table
read TLS with my_thread_var
write TLS with set_mysys_var()
my_thread_var is no longer __attribute__ ((const)): this attribute
is simply incorrect here. Read gcc manual for more information.
sql/threadpool_generic.cc fails with that attribute.
MariaDB 10.4 was crashing when thread-handling was set to
pool-of-threads and wsrep was enabled.
There were two apparent reasons for the crash:
- Connection handling in threadpool_common.cc was missing calls to
control wsrep client state.
- Thread specific storage which contains thread variables (THR_KEY_mysys)
was not handled appropriately by wsrep patch when pool-of-threads
was configured.
This patch addresses the above issues in the following way:
- Wsrep client state open/close was moved in thd_prepare_connection() and
end_connection() to have common handling for one-thread-per-connection
and pool-of-threads.
- Thread local storage handling in wsrep patch was reworked by introducing
set of wsrep_xxx_threadvars() calls which replace calls to
THD store_globals()/reset_globals() and deal with thread handling
specifics internally.
Wsrep-lib was updated to version which relaxes internal concurrency
related sanity checks.
Rollback code from wsrep_rollback_process() was extracted to separate calls
for better readability.
Post rollback thread was removed as it was completely unused.
Plugin fixed to not lock the LOCK_operations when not active.
Server fixed to lock the LOCK_plugin less - do it once per
thread and then only if a plugin was installed/uninstalled.
stalls etc better.
- thread_pool_exact_stats - uses high precision timestamp for
the time when connection was added to the queue. This timestamp helps
calculating queuing time shown in I_S.THREADPOOL_QUEUES entries.
- If thread_pool_dedicated_listener is on, then each group will have its
own dedicated listener, that does not convert to worker.
With this variable on, the queueing time in I_S.THREADPOOL_QUEUES , and
actual queue size in I_S.THREADPOOOL_GROUPS will be more exact, since
IO request are immediately dequeued from poll, without delay.

Removed LOCK_connection_count.
Removed duplicate denied_connections and connection_errors_max_connection
increment from create_new_thread(). Another increment done by
CONNECT::close_with_error().
Simplified away CONNECT::thread_count_incremented. Now close_with_error()
is always called with connection_count incremented.
Part of MDEV-19515 - Improve connect speed
Code properly integrated into callers instead.
do_handle_one_connection(): no need to reset thd and thd->thread_stack
as they're not updated by cache_thread().
Part of MDEV-19515 - Improve connect speed
It was meaningful only for one-thread-per-connection scheduler anyway,
so call init_new_connection_handler_thread() directly from
handle_one_connection().
It was somewhat harmful for no-threads scheduler, because it'd attempt to
detach main thread on AIX_3_2 and Siemens unix (and DEC OSF/1 3.2 too).
Also it does duplicate my_thread_init() call, which may produce a warning
under EXTRA_DEBUG_THREADS.
start_wsrep_THD() shouldn't have called it at all: it already detached
and called my_thread_init().

Implemented and integrated THD_list as a replacement for the global
thread list. It uses own mutex instead of LOCK_thread_count for THD
list protection.
Removed unused first_global_thread() and next_global_thread().
delayed_insert_threads is now protected by LOCK_delayed_insert. Although
this patch doesn't fix very wrong synchronization of this variable.
After this patch there are only 2 legitimate uses of LOCK_thread_count
left, both in mysqld.cc: thread_count and ready_to_exit.
Aim is to reduce usage of LOCK_thread_count and COND_thread_count.
