HA_INNOBASE::UPDATE_ROW, TEMPORARY TABLE, TABLE LOCK".
Attempt to update an InnoDB temporary table under LOCK TABLES
led to assertion failure in both debug and production builds
if this temporary table was explicitly locked for READ. The
same scenario works fine for MyISAM temporary tables.
The assertion failure was caused by discrepancy between lock
that was requested on the rows of temporary table at LOCK TABLES
time and by update operation. Since SQL-layer requested a
read-lock at LOCK TABLES time InnoDB engine assumed that upcoming
statements which are going to be executed under LOCK TABLES will
only read table and therefore should acquire only S-lock.
An update operation broken this assumption by requesting X-lock.
Possible approaches to fixing this problem are:
1) Skip locking of temporary tables as locking doesn't make any
sense for connection-local objects.
2) Prohibit changing of temporary table locked by LOCK TABLES ...
READ.
Unfortunately both of these approaches have drawbacks which make
them unviable for stable versions of server.
So this patch takes another approach and changes code in such way
that LOCK TABLES for a temporary table will always request write
lock. In 5.5 version of this patch switch from read lock to write
lock is done on SQL-layer.
In case of low memory sort buffer QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT creates
temporary file where is stores row ids which meet QUICK_SELECT ranges
except of clustered pk range, clustered range is processed separately.
In init_read_record we check if temporary file is used and choose
appropriate record access method. It does not take into account that
temporary file contains partial result in case of QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT
with clustered pk range.
The fix is always to use rr_quick if QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT
with clustered pk range is used.
ALTER TABLE RENAME, DISABLE KEYS.
The code of ALTER TABLE RENAME, DISABLE KEYS could
issue a commit while holding LOCK_open mutex.
This is a regression introduced by the fix for
Bug 54453.
This failed an assert guarding us against a potential
deadlock with connections trying to execute
FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK.
The fix is to move acquisition of LOCK_open outside
the section that issues ha_autocommit_or_rollback().
LOCK_open is taken to protect against concurrent
operations with .frms and the table definition
cache, and doesn't need to cover the call to commit.
A test case added to innodb_mysql.test.
The patch is to be null-merged to 5.5, which
already has 54453 null-merged to it.
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.
case than in corr index".
Server was unable to find existing or explicitly created supporting
index for foreign key if corresponding statement clause used field
names in case different than one used in key specification and created
yet another supporting index.
In cases when name of constraint (and thus name of generated index)
was the same as name of existing/explicitly created index this led
to duplicate key name error.
The problem was that unlike all other code Key_part_spec::operator==()
compared field names in case sensitive fashion. As result routines
responsible for getting rid of redundant generated supporting indexes
for foreign key were not working properly for versions of field names
using different cases.

After fix for bug 39653 the shortest available secondary index was used for
full table scan. Primary clustered key was used only if no secondary index
can be used. However, when chosen secondary index includes all fields of the
table being scanned it's better to use primary index since the amount of
data to scan is the same but the primary index is clustered.
Now the find_shortest_key function takes this into account.
KILL_BAD_DATA is returned
Two problems discovered with the LEAST()/GREATEST()
functions:
1. The check for a null value should happen even
after the second call to val_str() in the args. This is
important because two subsequent calls to the same
Item::val_str() may yield different results.
Fixed by checking for NULL value before dereferencing
the string result.
2. While looping over the arguments and evaluating them
the loop should stop if there was an error evaluating so far
or the statement was killed. Fixed by checking for error
and bailing out.
The server was not checking for errors generated during
the execution of Item::val_xxx() methods when copying
data to the group, order, or distinct temp table's row.
Fixed by extending the copy_funcs() to return an error
code and by checking for that error code on the places
copy_funcs() is called.
Test case added.
This crash occured after ALTER TABLE was used on a temporary
transactional table locked by LOCK TABLES. Any later attempts to
execute LOCK/UNLOCK TABLES, caused the server to crash.
The reason for the crash was the list of locked tables would
end up having a pointer to a free'd table instance. This happened
because ALTER TABLE deleted the table without also removing the
table reference from the locked tables list.
This patch fixes the problem by making sure ALTER TABLE also
removes the table from the locked tables list.
Test case added to innodb_mysql.test.
Merge up to sunny.bains@oracle.com-20100625081841-ppulnkjk1qlazh82 .
There are 8 more changesets in mysql-5.1-innodb, but PB2 shows a
failure for a test added in one of them. If that is resolved quickly
then those 8 more changesets will be merged too.

Bug#38999 valgrind warnings for update statement in function compare_record()

init null bytes with default values as they might be
left uninitialized in some cases and these uninited bytes
might be copied into mysql record buffer that leads to
valgrind warnings on next use of the buffer.
Valgrind warning happpens because of uninitialized null bytes.
In row_sel_push_cache_row_for_mysql() function we fill fetch cache
with necessary field values, row_sel_store_mysql_rec() is called
for this and leaves null bytes untouched.
Later row_sel_pop_cached_row_for_mysql() rewrites table record
buffer with uninited null bytes. We can see the problem from the
test case:
At 'SELECT...' we call row_sel_push...->row_sel_store...->row_sel_pop_cached...
chain which rewrites table->record[0] buffer with uninitialized null bytes.
When we call 'UPDATE...' statement, compare_record uses this buffer and
valgrind warning occurs.
The fix is to init null bytes with default values.
