IN TIME RECOVERY FAILURE ON SLAVES
Problem:
DROP TEMP TABLE IF EXISTS commands can cause point
in time recovery (re-applying binlog) failures.
Analyses:
In RBR, 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE' commands are
always binlogged by adding 'IF EXISTS' clauses.
Also, the slave SQL thread will not check replicate.* filter
rules for "DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS" queries.
If log-slave-updates is enabled on slave, these queries
will be binlogged in the format of "USE `db`;
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS `t1`;" irrespective
of filtering rules and irrespective of the `db` existence.
When users try to recover slave from it's own binlog,
use `db` command might fail if `db` is not present on slave.
Fix:
At the time of writing the 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
IF EXISTS' query into the binlog, 'use `db`' will not be
present and the table name in the query will be a fully
qualified table name.
Eg:
'USE `db`; DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS `t1`;'
will be logged as
'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE IF EXISTS `db`.`t1`;'.
Major replication test framework cleanup. This does the following:
- Ensure that all tests clean up the replication state when they
finish, by making check-testcase check the output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
This implies:
- Slave must not be running after test finished. This is good
because it removes the risk for sporadic errors in subsequent
tests when a test forgets to sync correctly.
- Slave SQL and IO errors must be cleared when test ends. This is
good because we will notice if a test gets an unexpected error in
the slave threads near the end.
- We no longer have to clean up before a test starts.
- Ensure that all tests that wait for an error in one of the slave
threads waits for a specific error. It is no longer possible to
source wait_for_slave_[sql|io]_to_stop.inc when there is an error
in one of the slave threads. This is good because:
- If a test expects an error but there is a bug that causes
another error to happen, or if it stops the slave thread without
an error, then we will notice.
- When developing tests, wait_for_*_to_[start|stop].inc will fail
immediately if there is an error in the relevant slave thread.
Before this patch, we had to wait for the timeout.
- Remove duplicated and repeated code for setting up unusual replication
topologies. Now, there is a single file that is capable of setting
up arbitrary topologies (include/rpl_init.inc, but
include/master-slave.inc is still available for the most common
topology). Tests can now end with include/rpl_end.inc, which will clean
up correctly no matter what topology is used. The topology can be
changed with include/rpl_change_topology.inc.
- Improved debug information when tests fail. This includes:
- debug info is printed on all servers configured by include/rpl_init.inc
- User can set $rpl_debug=1, which makes auxiliary replication files
print relevant debug info.
- Improved documentation for all auxiliary replication files. Now they
describe purpose, usage, parameters, and side effects.
- Many small code cleanups:
- Made have_innodb.inc output a sensible error message.
- Moved contents of rpl000017-slave.sh into rpl000017.test
- Added mysqltest variables that expose the current state of
disable_warnings/enable_warnings and friends.
- Too many to list here: see per-file comments for details.
Rows events were applied wrongly on the temporary table with the same name.
But rows events are generated only for base tables. As temporary
table's data never be binlogged on row mode. Normally, base table of the
same name cannot be updated if a temporary table has the same name.
But there are two cases which can generate rows events on
the base table of same name.
Case1: 'CREATE TABLE ... SELECT' statement.
In mixed format, it will generate rows events if it is unsafe.
Case2: Drop a transactional temporary table in a transaction
(happens only on 5.5+).
BEGIN;
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE t1; # t1 is a InnoDB table
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(rand()); # t1 is a MyISAM table
COMMIT;
'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE' will be put in the transaction cache and
binlogged after the rows events generated by the 'INSERT' statement.
After this patch, slave opens only base table when applying a rows event.
temp table
This patch introduces two key changes in the replication's behavior.
Firstly, it reverts part of BUG#51894 which puts any update to temporary tables
into the trx-cache. Now, updates to temporary tables are handled according to
the type of their engines as a regular table.
Secondly, an unsafe mixed statement, (i.e. a statement that access transactional
table as well non-transactional or temporary table, and writes to any of them),
are written into the trx-cache in order to minimize errors in the execution when
the statement logging format is in use.
Such changes has a direct impact on which statements are classified as unsafe
statements and thus part of BUG#53259 is reverted.
Non-transactional updates that take place inside a transaction present problems
for logging because they are visible to other clients before the transaction
is committed, and they are not rolled back even if the transaction is rolled
back. It is not always possible to log correctly in statement format when both
transactional and non-transactional tables are used in the same transaction.
In the current patch, we ensure that such scenario is completely safe under the
ROW and MIXED modes.
to wrong result
When using MIXED mode and issuing 'CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t_tmp',
the statement is logged if the current binlogging mode is
STATEMENT. This causes the slave to replay the instruction and
create the temporary table as well. If there is no switch to ROW
mode, and later on a 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE t_tmp' is issued, then
this statement will also be logged and the slave will
remove/close the temporary table.
However, if there is a switch to ROW mode between the CREATE and
DROP TEMPORARY table, the DROP statement will not be logged,
leaving the slave with a dangling temporary table.
This patch addresses this, by always logging a DROP TEMPORARY
TABLE IF EXISTS when in mixed mode and a drop statement is issued
for temporary table(s).
slave.
In mixed mode, if we create a temporary table and do some update which switch to ROW format,
the format will keep in ROW format until the session ends or the table is dropped explicitly.
When the session ends, the temp table is dropped automaticly at cleanup time.
but it checks only current binlog format and so skip insertion of DROP TABLE instructions into binlog.
So the temp table can't be dropped correctly at slave.
Our solution is that when closing temp tables at cleanup time we check both binlog format and binlog mode,
and we could write DROP TABLE instructions into binlog if current binlog format is ROW but in MIX mode.
