 5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c

- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
19 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  WL#2977 and WL#2712 global and session-level variable to set the binlog format (row/statement),
and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.
20 years ago  WL#3984 (Revise locking of mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log)
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.
18 years ago  WL#2977 and WL#2712 global and session-level variable to set the binlog format (row/statement),
and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.

Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a

Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal

- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need

only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked

- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over

metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a

Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The

- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead

(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)

- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.

(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.

data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good

- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)

- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also

thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from

Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  WL#2977 and WL#2712 global and session-level variable to set the binlog format (row/statement),
and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.

19 years ago  WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c

To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()

When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;

Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.
18 years ago  WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;

Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;

Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.

18 years ago  WL#3984 (Revise locking of mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log)
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.

Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible

Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See

You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;

However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;

Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks

takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the

18 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

18 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  WL#3984 (Revise locking of mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log)
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.

19 years ago  WL#2977 and WL#2712 global and session-level variable to set the binlog format (row/statement),
and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.

statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table

In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE

The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from

19 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

19 years ago  WL#3984 (Revise locking of mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log)
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.

Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.
18 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.

causes server to crash
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.
18 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.

that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with

19 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.

To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

18 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
19 years ago  WL#2977 and WL#2712 global and session-level variable to set the binlog format (row/statement),
and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.
20 years ago  Bug#26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in

Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE

causes server to crash
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.
18 years ago  WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c

In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

18 years ago  WL#3146 "less locking in auto_increment":
this is a cleanup patch for our current auto_increment handling:
new names for auto_increment variables in THD, new methods to manipulate them
(see sql_class.h), some move into handler::, causing less backup/restore
work when executing substatements.
This makes the logic hopefully clearer, less work is is needed in
mysql_insert().
By cleaning up, using different variables for different purposes (instead
of one for 3 things...), we fix those bugs, which someone may want to fix
in 5.0 too:
BUG#20339 "stored procedure using LAST_INSERT_ID() does not replicate
statement-based"
BUG#20341 "stored function inserting into one auto_increment puts bad
data in slave"
BUG#19243 "wrong LAST_INSERT_ID() after ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE"
(now if a row is updated, LAST_INSERT_ID() will return its id)
and re-fixes:
BUG#6880 "LAST_INSERT_ID() value changes during multi-row INSERT"
(already fixed differently by Ramil in 4.1)
Test of documented behaviour of mysql_insert_id() (there was no test).
The behaviour changes introduced are:
- LAST_INSERT_ID() now returns "the first autogenerated auto_increment value
successfully inserted", instead of "the first autogenerated auto_increment
value if any row was successfully inserted", see auto_increment.test.
Same for mysql_insert_id(), see mysql_client_test.c.
- LAST_INSERT_ID() returns the id of the updated row if ON DUPLICATE KEY
UPDATE, see auto_increment.test. Same for mysql_insert_id(), see
mysql_client_test.c.
- LAST_INSERT_ID() does not change if no autogenerated value was successfully
inserted (it used to then be 0), see auto_increment.test.
- if in INSERT SELECT no autogenerated value was successfully inserted,
mysql_insert_id() now returns the id of the last inserted row (it already
did this for INSERT VALUES), see mysql_client_test.c.
- if INSERT SELECT uses LAST_INSERT_ID(X), mysql_insert_id() now returns X
(it already did this for INSERT VALUES), see mysql_client_test.c.
- NDB now behaves like other engines wrt SET INSERT_ID: with INSERT IGNORE,
the id passed in SET INSERT_ID is re-used until a row succeeds; SET INSERT_ID
influences not only the first row now.
Additionally, when unlocking a table we check that the thread is not keeping
a next_insert_id (as the table is unlocked that id is potentially out-of-date);
forgetting about this next_insert_id is done in a new
handler::ha_release_auto_increment().
Finally we prepare for engines capable of reserving finite-length intervals
of auto_increment values: we store such intervals in THD. The next step
(to be done by the replication team in 5.1) is to read those intervals from
THD and actually store them in the statement-based binary log. NDB
will be a good engine to test that.
20 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  WL#3146 "less locking in auto_increment":
this is a cleanup patch for our current auto_increment handling:
new names for auto_increment variables in THD, new methods to manipulate them
(see sql_class.h), some move into handler::, causing less backup/restore
work when executing substatements.
This makes the logic hopefully clearer, less work is is needed in
mysql_insert().
By cleaning up, using different variables for different purposes (instead
of one for 3 things...), we fix those bugs, which someone may want to fix
in 5.0 too:
BUG#20339 "stored procedure using LAST_INSERT_ID() does not replicate
statement-based"
BUG#20341 "stored function inserting into one auto_increment puts bad
data in slave"
BUG#19243 "wrong LAST_INSERT_ID() after ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE"
(now if a row is updated, LAST_INSERT_ID() will return its id)
and re-fixes:
BUG#6880 "LAST_INSERT_ID() value changes during multi-row INSERT"
(already fixed differently by Ramil in 4.1)
Test of documented behaviour of mysql_insert_id() (there was no test).
The behaviour changes introduced are:
- LAST_INSERT_ID() now returns "the first autogenerated auto_increment value
successfully inserted", instead of "the first autogenerated auto_increment
value if any row was successfully inserted", see auto_increment.test.
Same for mysql_insert_id(), see mysql_client_test.c.
- LAST_INSERT_ID() returns the id of the updated row if ON DUPLICATE KEY
UPDATE, see auto_increment.test. Same for mysql_insert_id(), see
mysql_client_test.c.
- LAST_INSERT_ID() does not change if no autogenerated value was successfully
inserted (it used to then be 0), see auto_increment.test.
- if in INSERT SELECT no autogenerated value was successfully inserted,
mysql_insert_id() now returns the id of the last inserted row (it already
did this for INSERT VALUES), see mysql_client_test.c.
- if INSERT SELECT uses LAST_INSERT_ID(X), mysql_insert_id() now returns X
(it already did this for INSERT VALUES), see mysql_client_test.c.
- NDB now behaves like other engines wrt SET INSERT_ID: with INSERT IGNORE,
the id passed in SET INSERT_ID is re-used until a row succeeds; SET INSERT_ID
influences not only the first row now.
Additionally, when unlocking a table we check that the thread is not keeping
a next_insert_id (as the table is unlocked that id is potentially out-of-date);
forgetting about this next_insert_id is done in a new
handler::ha_release_auto_increment().
Finally we prepare for engines capable of reserving finite-length intervals
of auto_increment values: we store such intervals in THD. The next step
(to be done by the replication team in 5.1) is to read those intervals from
THD and actually store them in the statement-based binary log. NDB
will be a good engine to test that.

20 years ago  5.1 version of a fix and test cases for bugs:
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking

Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE

The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.

The problems were:
Bug 26379 - Combination of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE
corrupts a MERGE table
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting while
REPAIR TABLE or a similar table administration task is ongoing on
one or more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs busy waiting until all
threads that did REPAIR TABLE or similar table administration tasks
on one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES segments do UNLOCK
TABLES. The difference against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place *after* the administration task. It is terminated by
UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment can invalidate the
lock. This does *not* require a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES
can be replaced by any statement that requires other threads to
reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a single FLUSH TABLES can provoke
the problem.
Bug 26867 - LOCK TABLES + REPAIR + merge table result in
memory/cpu hogging
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child locked and
repaired by another thread, made an infinite loop in the server.
Bug 26377 - Deadlock with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in parent-child order
and flushing the child deadlocked the server.
Bug 25038 - Waiting TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was in use,
let the truncate fail instead of waiting for the table to
become free.
Bug 25700 - merge base tables get corrupted by
optimize/analyze/repair table
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted the child.
It was necessary to FLUSH the child first.
Bug 30275 - Merge tables: flush tables or unlock tables
causes server to crash
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children crashed the server.
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary children
could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. So we do now prohibit
non-temporary chidlren of a temporary MERGE table.
Bug 27660 - Falcon: merge table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with non-MyISAM children.
Bug 30273 - merge tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration statements
sometimes failed with "Can't lock file (errno: 155)".
These bugs are fixed by a new implementation of MERGE table open.
When opening a MERGE table in open_tables() we do now add the
child tables to the list of tables to be opened by open_tables()
(the "query_list"). The children are not opened in the handler at
this stage.
After opening the parent, open_tables() opens each child from the
now extended query_list. When the last child is opened, we remove
the children from the query_list again and attach the children to
the parent. This behaves similar to the old open. However it does
not open the MyISAM tables directly, but grabs them from the already
open children.
When closing a MERGE table in close_thread_table() we detach the
children only. Closing of the children is done implicitly because
they are in thd->open_tables.
For more detail see the comment at the top of ha_myisammrg.cc.
Changed from open_ltable() to open_and_lock_tables() in all places
that can be relevant for MERGE tables. The latter can handle tables
added to the list on the fly. When open_ltable() was used in a loop
over a list of tables, the list must be temporarily terminated
after every table for open_and_lock_tables().
table_list->required_type is set to FRMTYPE_TABLE to avoid open of
special tables. Handling of derived tables is suppressed.
These details are handled by the new function
open_n_lock_single_table(), which has nearly the same signature as
open_ltable() and can replace it in most cases.
In reopen_tables() some of the tables open by a thread can be
closed and reopened. When a MERGE child is affected, the parent
must be closed and reopened too. Closing of the parent is forced
before the first child is closed. Reopen happens in the order of
thd->open_tables. MERGE parents do not attach their children
automatically at open. This is done after all tables are reopened.
So all children are open when attaching them.
Special lock handling like mysql_lock_abort() or mysql_lock_remove()
needs to be suppressed for MERGE children or forwarded to the parent.
This depends on the situation. In loops over all open tables one
suppresses child lock handling. When a single table is touched,
forwarding is done.
Behavioral changes:
===================
This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE tables.
Temporary MERGE must have temporary children.
The old behavior was wrong. A temporary table is not locked. Hence
even non-temporary children were not locked. See
Bug 19627 - temporary merge table locking.
You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary MERGE table
when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The following does *not* work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE table.
You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ... SELECT, neither
as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a non-temporary MERGE table.
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
Gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

18 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  This changeset is largely a handler cleanup changeset (WL#3281), but includes fixes and cleanups that was found necessary while testing the handler changes
Changes that requires code changes in other code of other storage engines.
(Note that all changes are very straightforward and one should find all issues
by compiling a --debug build and fixing all compiler errors and all
asserts in field.cc while running the test suite),
- New optional handler function introduced: reset()
This is called after every DML statement to make it easy for a handler to
statement specific cleanups.
(The only case it's not called is if force the file to be closed)
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RESET) is removed. Code that was there before
should be moved to handler::reset()
- table->read_set contains a bitmap over all columns that are needed
in the query. read_row() and similar functions only needs to read these
columns
- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of
these bitmaps (instead of using table->read_set, table->write_set),
it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)

OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error

automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not

- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in

- table->write_set contains a bitmap over all columns that will be updated
in the query. write_row() and update_row() only needs to update these
columns.
The above bitmaps should now be up to date in all context
(including ALTER TABLE, filesort()).
The handler is informed of any changes to the bitmap after
fix_fields() by calling the virtual function
handler::column_bitmaps_signal(). If the handler does caching of

it should redo the caching in this code. as the signal() may be sent
several times, it's probably best to set a variable in the signal
and redo the caching on read_row() / write_row() if the variable was
set.
- Removed the read_set and write_set bitmap objects from the handler class
- Removed all column bit handling functions from the handler class.
(Now one instead uses the normal bitmap functions in my_bitmap.c instead
of handler dedicated bitmap functions)
- field->query_id is removed. One should instead instead check
table->read_set and table->write_set if a field is used in the query.
- handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIVE_ALL_COLS) and
handler::extra(HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_PRIMARY_KEY) are removed. One should now
instead use table->read_set to check for which columns to retrieve.
- If a handler needs to call Field->val() or Field->store() on columns
that are not used in the query, one should install a temporary
all-columns-used map while doing so. For this, we provide the following
functions:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->read_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->read_set, old_map);
and similar for the write map:
my_bitmap_map *old_map= dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(table, table->write_set);
field->val();
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map(table->write_set, old_map);
If this is not done, you will sooner or later hit a DBUG_ASSERT
in the field store() / val() functions.
(For not DBUG binaries, the dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() and
dbug_tmp_restore_column_map() are inline dummy functions and should
be optimized away be the compiler).
- If one needs to temporary set the column map for all binaries (and not
just to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT() in the Field::store() / Field::val()
methods) one should use the functions tmp_use_all_columns() and
tmp_restore_column_map() instead of the above dbug_ variants.
- All 'status' fields in the handler base class (like records,
data_file_length etc) are now stored in a 'stats' struct. This makes
it easier to know what status variables are provided by the base
handler. This requires some trivial variable names in the extra()
function.
- New virtual function handler::records(). This is called to optimize
COUNT(*) if (handler::table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS()) is true.
(stats.records is not supposed to be an exact value. It's only has to
be 'reasonable enough' for the optimizer to be able to choose a good
optimization path).
- Non virtual handler::init() function added for caching of virtual
constants from engine.
- Removed has_transactions() virtual method. Now one should instead return
HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS in table_flags() if the table handler DOES NOT support
transactions.
- The 'xxxx_create_handler()' function now has a MEM_ROOT_root argument
that is to be used with 'new handler_name()' to allocate the handler
in the right area. The xxxx_create_handler() function is also
responsible for any initialization of the object before returning.
For example, one should change:
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table)
{
return new ha_myisam(table);
}
->
static handler *myisam_create_handler(TABLE_SHARE *table, MEM_ROOT *mem_root)
{
return new (mem_root) ha_myisam(table);
}
- New optional virtual function: use_hidden_primary_key().
This is called in case of an update/delete when
(table_flags() and HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE) is defined
but we don't have a primary key. This allows the handler to take precisions
in remembering any hidden primary key to able to update/delete any
found row. The default handler marks all columns to be read.
- handler::table_flags() now returns a ulonglong (to allow for more flags).
- New/changed table_flags()
- HA_HAS_RECORDS Set if ::records() is supported
- HA_NO_TRANSACTIONS Set if engine doesn't support transactions
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_DELETE
Set if we should mark all primary key columns for
read when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. If there is no primary key,
all columns are marked for read.
- HA_PARTIAL_COLUMN_READ Set if engine will not read all columns in some
cases (based on table->read_set)
- HA_PRIMARY_KEY_ALLOW_RANDOM_ACCESS
Renamed to HA_PRIMARY_KEY_REQUIRED_FOR_POSITION.
- HA_DUPP_POS Renamed to HA_DUPLICATE_POS
- HA_REQUIRES_KEY_COLUMNS_FOR_DELETE
Set this if we should mark ALL key columns for
read when when reading rows as part of a DELETE
statement. In case of an update we will mark
all keys for read for which key part changed
value.
- HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT
Set this if stats.records is exact.
(This saves us some extra records() calls
when optimizing COUNT(*))
- Removed table_flags()
- HA_NOT_EXACT_COUNT Now one should instead use HA_HAS_RECORDS if
handler::records() gives an exact count() and
HA_STATS_RECORDS_IS_EXACT if stats.records is exact.
- HA_READ_RND_SAME Removed (no one supported this one)
- Removed not needed functions ha_retrieve_all_cols() and ha_retrieve_all_pk()
- Renamed handler::dupp_pos to handler::dup_pos
- Removed not used variable handler::sortkey
Upper level handler changes:
- ha_reset() now does some overall checks and calls ::reset()
- ha_table_flags() added. This is a cached version of table_flags(). The
cache is updated on engine creation time and updated on open.
MySQL level changes (not obvious from the above):
- DBUG_ASSERT() added to check that column usage matches what is set
in the column usage bit maps. (This found a LOT of bugs in current
column marking code).
- In 5.1 before, all used columns was marked in read_set and only updated
columns was marked in write_set. Now we only mark columns for which we
need a value in read_set.
- Column bitmaps are created in open_binary_frm() and open_table_from_share().
(Before this was in table.cc)
- handler::table_flags() calls are replaced with handler::ha_table_flags()
- For calling field->val() you must have the corresponding bit set in
table->read_set. For calling field->store() you must have the
corresponding bit set in table->write_set. (There are asserts in
all store()/val() functions to catch wrong usage)
- thd->set_query_id is renamed to thd->mark_used_columns and instead
of setting this to an integer value, this has now the values:
MARK_COLUMNS_NONE, MARK_COLUMNS_READ, MARK_COLUMNS_WRITE
Changed also all variables named 'set_query_id' to mark_used_columns.
- In filesort() we now inform the handler of exactly which columns are needed
doing the sort and choosing the rows.
- The TABLE_SHARE object has a 'all_set' column bitmap one can use
when one needs a column bitmap with all columns set.
(This is used for table->use_all_columns() and other places)
- The TABLE object has 3 column bitmaps:
- def_read_set Default bitmap for columns to be read
- def_write_set Default bitmap for columns to be written
- tmp_set Can be used as a temporary bitmap when needed.
The table object has also two pointer to bitmaps read_set and write_set
that the handler should use to find out which columns are used in which way.
- count() optimization now calls handler::records() instead of using
handler->stats.records (if (table_flags() & HA_HAS_RECORDS) is true).
- Added extra argument to Item::walk() to indicate if we should also
traverse sub queries.
- Added TABLE parameter to cp_buffer_from_ref()
- Don't close tables created with CREATE ... SELECT but keep them in
the table cache. (Faster usage of newly created tables).
New interfaces:
- table->clear_column_bitmaps() to initialize the bitmaps for tables
at start of new statements.
- table->column_bitmaps_set() to set up new column bitmaps and signal
the handler about this.
- table->column_bitmaps_set_no_signal() for some few cases where we need
to setup new column bitmaps but don't signal the handler (as the handler
has already been signaled about these before). Used for the momement
only in opt_range.cc when doing ROR scans.
- table->use_all_columns() to install a bitmap where all columns are marked
as use in the read and the write set.
- table->default_column_bitmaps() to install the normal read and write
column bitmaps, but not signaling the handler about this.
This is mainly used when creating TABLE instances.
- table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete(),
table->mark_columns_needed_for_delete() and
table->mark_columns_needed_for_insert() to allow us to put additional
columns in column usage maps if handler so requires.
(The handler indicates what it neads in handler->table_flags())
- table->prepare_for_position() to allow us to tell handler that it
needs to read primary key parts to be able to store them in
future table->position() calls.
(This replaces the table->file->ha_retrieve_all_pk function)
- table->mark_auto_increment_column() to tell handler are going to update
columns part of any auto_increment key.
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index() to mark all columns that is part of
an index. It will also send extra(HA_EXTRA_KEYREAD) to handler to allow
it to quickly know that it only needs to read colums that are part
of the key. (The handler can also use the column map for detecting this,
but simpler/faster handler can just monitor the extra() call).
- table->mark_columns_used_by_index_no_reset() to in addition to other columns,
also mark all columns that is used by the given key.
- table->restore_column_maps_after_mark_index() to restore to default
column maps after a call to table->mark_columns_used_by_index().
- New item function register_field_in_read_map(), for marking used columns
in table->read_map. Used by filesort() to mark all used columns
- Maintain in TABLE->merge_keys set of all keys that are used in query.
(Simplices some optimization loops)
- Maintain Field->part_of_key_not_clustered which is like Field->part_of_key
but the field in the clustered key is not assumed to be part of all index.
(used in opt_range.cc for faster loops)
- dbug_tmp_use_all_columns(), dbug_tmp_restore_column_map()
tmp_use_all_columns() and tmp_restore_column_map() functions to temporally
mark all columns as usable. The 'dbug_' version is primarily intended
inside a handler when it wants to just call Field:store() & Field::val()
functions, but don't need the column maps set for any other usage.
(ie:: bitmap_is_set() is never called)
- We can't use compare_records() to skip updates for handlers that returns
a partial column set and the read_set doesn't cover all columns in the
write set. The reason for this is that if we have a column marked only for
write we can't in the MySQL level know if the value changed or not.
The reason this worked before was that MySQL marked all to be written
columns as also to be read. The new 'optimal' bitmaps exposed this 'hidden
bug'.
- open_table_from_share() does not anymore setup temporary MEM_ROOT
object as a thread specific variable for the handler. Instead we
send the to-be-used MEMROOT to get_new_handler().
(Simpler, faster code)
Bugs fixed:
- Column marking was not done correctly in a lot of cases.
(ALTER TABLE, when using triggers, auto_increment fields etc)
(Could potentially result in wrong values inserted in table handlers
relying on that the old column maps or field->set_query_id was correct)
Especially when it comes to triggers, there may be cases where the
old code would cause lost/wrong values for NDB and/or InnoDB tables.
- Split thd->options flag OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE to two flags:
OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE and OPTION_KEEP_LOG.
This allowed me to remove some wrong warnings about:
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back"
- Fixed handling of INSERT .. SELECT and CREATE ... SELECT that wrongly reset
(thd->options & OPTION_STATUS_NO_TRANS_UPDATE) which caused us to loose
some warnings about
"Some non-transactional changed tables couldn't be rolled back")
- Fixed use of uninitialized memory in ha_ndbcluster.cc::delete_table()
which could cause delete_table to report random failures.
- Fixed core dumps for some tests when running with --debug
- Added missing FN_LIBCHAR in mysql_rm_tmp_tables()
(This has probably caused us to not properly remove temporary files after
crash)
- slow_logs was not properly initialized, which could maybe cause
extra/lost entries in slow log.
- If we get an duplicate row on insert, change column map to read and
write all columns while retrying the operation. This is required by
the definition of REPLACE and also ensures that fields that are only
part of UPDATE are properly handled. This fixed a bug in NDB and
REPLACE where REPLACE wrongly copied some column values from the replaced
row.
- For table handler that doesn't support NULL in keys, we would give an error
when creating a primary key with NULL fields, even after the fields has been
automaticly converted to NOT NULL.
- Creating a primary key on a SPATIAL key, would fail if field was not
declared as NOT NULL.
Cleanups:
- Removed not used condition argument to setup_tables
- Removed not needed item function reset_query_id_processor().
- Field->add_index is removed. Now this is instead maintained in
(field->flags & FIELD_IN_ADD_INDEX)
- Field->fieldnr is removed (use field->field_index instead)
- New argument to filesort() to indicate that it should return a set of
row pointers (not used columns). This allowed me to remove some references
to sql_command in filesort and should also enable us to return column
results in some cases where we couldn't before.
- Changed column bitmap handling in opt_range.cc to be aligned with TABLE
bitmap, which allowed me to use bitmap functions instead of looping over
all fields to create some needed bitmaps. (Faster and smaller code)
- Broke up found too long lines
- Moved some variable declaration at start of function for better code
readability.
- Removed some not used arguments from functions.
(setup_fields(), mysql_prepare_insert_check_table())
- setup_fields() now takes an enum instead of an int for marking columns
usage.
- For internal temporary tables, use handler::write_row(),
handler::delete_row() and handler::update_row() instead of
handler::ha_xxxx() for faster execution.
- Changed some constants to enum's and define's.
- Using separate column read and write sets allows for easier checking
of timestamp field was set by statement.
- Remove calls to free_io_cache() as this is now done automaticly in ha_reset()
- Don't build table->normalized_path as this is now identical to table->path
(after bar's fixes to convert filenames)
- Fixed some missed DBUG_PRINT(.."%lx") to use "0x%lx" to make it easier to
do comparision with the 'convert-dbug-for-diff' tool.
Things left to do in 5.1:
- We wrongly log failed CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in some cases when using
row based logging (as shown by testcase binlog_row_mix_innodb_myisam.result)
Mats has promised to look into this.
- Test that my fix for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is indeed correct.
(I added several test cases for this, but in this case it's better that
someone else also tests this throughly).
Lars has promosed to do this.
20 years ago  WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c

MODULE: DDL log -----------------
This module is used to ensure that we can recover from crashes that occur in the middle of a meta-data operation in MySQL. E.g. DROP TABLE t1, t2; We need to ensure that both t1 and t2 are dropped and not only t1 and also that each table drop is entirely done and not "half-baked".
To support this we create log entries for each meta-data statement in the ddl log while we are executing. These entries are dropped when the operation is completed.
At recovery those entries that were not completed will be executed.
There is only one ddl log in the system and it is protected by a mutex and there is a global struct that contains information about its current state.

SYNOPSIS compare_tables() table The original table. alter_info Alter options, fields and keys for the new table. create_info Create options for the new table. order_num Number of order list elements. need_copy_table OUT Result of the comparison. Undefined if error. Otherwise is one of: ALTER_TABLE_METADATA_ONLY No copy needed ALTER_TABLE_DATA_CHANGED Data changes, copy needed ALTER_TABLE_INDEX_CHANGED Index changes, copy might be needed key_info_buffer OUT An array of KEY structs for new indexes index_drop_buffer OUT An array of offsets into table->key_info. index_drop_count OUT The number of elements in the array. index_add_buffer OUT An array of offsets into key_info_buffer. index_add_count OUT The number of elements in the array. candidate_key_count OUT The number of candidate keys in original table.
DESCRIPTION 'table' (first argument) contains information of the original table, which includes all corresponding parts that the new table has in arguments create_list, key_list and create_info.
By comparing the changes between the original and new table we can determine how much it has changed after ALTER TABLE and whether we need to make a copy of the table, or just change the .frm file.
If there are no data changes, but index changes, 'index_drop_buffer' and/or 'index_add_buffer' are populated with offsets into table->key_info or key_info_buffer respectively for the indexes that need to be dropped and/or (re-)created.

Test also that engine was not given during ALTER TABLE, or we are force to run regular alter table (copy). E.g. ALTER TABLE tbl_name ENGINE=MyISAM.
For the following ones we also want to run regular alter table: ALTER TABLE tbl_name ORDER BY .. ALTER TABLE tbl_name CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET ..
At the moment we can't handle altering temporary tables without a copy. We also test if OPTIMIZE TABLE was given and was mapped to alter table. In that case we always do full copy.
There was a bug prior to mysql-4.0.25. Number of null fields was calculated incorrectly. As a result frm and data files gets out of sync after fast alter table.

Alter table
SYNOPSIS mysql_alter_table() thd Thread handle new_db If there is a RENAME clause new_name If there is a RENAME clause create_info Information from the parsing phase about new table properties. table_list The table to change. alter_info Lists of fields, keys to be changed, added or dropped. order_num How many ORDER BY fields has been specified. order List of fields to ORDER BY. ignore Whether we have ALTER IGNORE TABLE
DESCRIPTION This is a veery long function and is everything but the kitchen sink :) It is used to alter a table and not only by ALTER TABLE but also CREATE|DROP INDEX are mapped on this function.
When the ALTER TABLE statement just does a RENAME or ENABLE|DISABLE KEYS, or both, then this function short cuts its operation by renaming the table and/or enabling/disabling the keys. In this case, the FRM is not changed, directly by mysql_alter_table. However, if there is a RENAME + change of a field, or an index, the short cut is not used. See how `create_list` is used to generate the new FRM regarding the structure of the fields. The same is done for the indices of the table.
Important is the fact, that this function tries to do as little work as possible, by finding out whether a intermediate table is needed to copy data into and when finishing the altering to use it as the original table. For this reason the function compare_tables() is called, which decides based on all kind of data how similar are the new and the original tables.
