 MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().

that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in

Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,

of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().

Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.

NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.

dict_table_get_col_name().

For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.

when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.

instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.

dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.

get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata

of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.

supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.

btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.

rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.

and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated

the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.

last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.

of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,

Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.

row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support

because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing

rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.

Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.

rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte

(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().

Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:

in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)

rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago Clean up the logging of virtual column values in table-rebuilding online ALTER
In online table-rebuilding ALTER TABLE (LOCK=NONE), virtual column values
are being written to the online_log. WL#8149 in MySQL 5.7 changed some
low-level functions that are also being used outside row0log.cc, causing
performance penalty to other code.
We revert those changes, and introduce separate functions for writing
the virtual column values.
The only functional change should be the one that is mentioned in
MDEV-13795: row_log_table_low_redundant() will no longer write
virtual column values along with old_pk, just like row_log_table_low().
As noted in MDEV-13795, some forms of table-rebuilding ALTER with
virtual columns is broken. At least DROP PRIMARY KEY, ADD PRIMARY KEY
is broken.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp():
Remove the parameter for passing virtual column values.
rec_get_converted_size_temp_v(), rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp_v():
New functions for appending virtual column values to the online_log.
rec_get_converted_size_comp_prefix_low(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Remove the v_entry parameter,
and do not allow n_fields=0.
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.

Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).

or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the

Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is

1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for
covering the insert of the 'default row' record when instant ADD COLUMN
is used for the first time. Subsequent instant ADD COLUMN can use
TRX_UNDO_UPD_EXIST_REC.
This is joint work with Vin Chen (陈福荣) from Tencent. The design
that was discussed in April 2017 would not have allowed import or
export of data files, because instead of the 'default row' it would
have introduced a data dictionary table. The test
rpl.rpl_alter_instant is exactly as contributed in pull request #408.
The test innodb.instant_alter is based on a contributed test.
The redo log record format changes for ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC and
ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
8 years ago Clean up the logging of virtual column values in table-rebuilding online ALTER
In online table-rebuilding ALTER TABLE (LOCK=NONE), virtual column values
are being written to the online_log. WL#8149 in MySQL 5.7 changed some
low-level functions that are also being used outside row0log.cc, causing
performance penalty to other code.
We revert those changes, and introduce separate functions for writing
the virtual column values.
The only functional change should be the one that is mentioned in
MDEV-13795: row_log_table_low_redundant() will no longer write
virtual column values along with old_pk, just like row_log_table_low().
As noted in MDEV-13795, some forms of table-rebuilding ALTER with
virtual columns is broken. At least DROP PRIMARY KEY, ADD PRIMARY KEY
is broken.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp():
Remove the parameter for passing virtual column values.
rec_get_converted_size_temp_v(), rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp_v():
New functions for appending virtual column values to the online_log.
rec_get_converted_size_comp_prefix_low(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Remove the v_entry parameter,
and do not allow n_fields=0.
8 years ago MDEV-11369 Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB
For InnoDB tables, adding, dropping and reordering columns has
required a rebuild of the table and all its indexes. Since MySQL 5.6
(and MariaDB 10.0) this has been supported online (LOCK=NONE), allowing
concurrent modification of the tables.
This work revises the InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT
and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC so that columns can be appended instantaneously,
with only minor changes performed to the table structure. The counter
innodb_instant_alter_column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.GLOBAL_STATUS
is incremented whenever a table rebuild operation is converted into
an instant ADD COLUMN operation.
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables will not support instant ADD COLUMN.
Some usability limitations will be addressed in subsequent work:
MDEV-13134 Introduce ALTER TABLE attributes ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
and ALGORITHM=INSTANT
MDEV-14016 Allow instant ADD COLUMN, ADD INDEX, LOCK=NONE
The format of the clustered index (PRIMARY KEY) is changed as follows:
(1) The FIL_PAGE_TYPE of the root page will be FIL_PAGE_TYPE_INSTANT,
and a new field PAGE_INSTANT will contain the original number of fields
in the clustered index ('core' fields).
If instant ADD COLUMN has not been used or the table becomes empty,
or the very first instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back,
the fields PAGE_INSTANT and FIL_PAGE_TYPE will be reset
to 0 and FIL_PAGE_INDEX.
(2) A special 'default row' record is inserted into the leftmost leaf,
between the page infimum and the first user record. This record is
distinguished by the REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG, and it is otherwise in the
same format as records that contain values for the instantly added
columns. This 'default row' always has the same number of fields as
the clustered index according to the table definition. The values of
'core' fields are to be ignored. For other fields, the 'default row'
will contain the default values as they were during the ALTER TABLE
statement. (If the column default values are changed later, those
values will only be stored in the .frm file. The 'default row' will
contain the original evaluated values, which must be the same for
every row.) The 'default row' must be completely hidden from
higher-level access routines. Assertions have been added to ensure
that no 'default row' is ever present in the adaptive hash index
or in locked records. The 'default row' is never delete-marked.
(3) In clustered index leaf page records, the number of fields must
reside between the number of 'core' fields (dict_index_t::n_core_fields
introduced in this work) and dict_index_t::n_fields. If the number
of fields is less than dict_index_t::n_fields, the missing fields
are replaced with the column value of the 'default row'.
Note: The number of fields in the record may shrink if some of the
last instantly added columns are updated to the value that is
in the 'default row'. The function btr_cur_trim() implements this
'compression' on update and rollback; dtuple::trim() implements it
on insert.
(4) In ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT and ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC records, the new
status value REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED will indicate the presence of
a new record header that will encode n_fields-n_core_fields-1 in
1 or 2 bytes. (In ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records, the record header
always explicitly encodes the number of fields.)
We introduce the undo log record type TRX_UNDO_INSERT_DEFAULT for

ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT are as contributed. (With this change present,
crash recovery from MariaDB 10.3.1 will fail in spectacular ways!)
Also the semantics of higher-level redo log records that modify the
PAGE_INSTANT field is changed. The redo log format version identifier
was already changed to LOG_HEADER_FORMAT_CURRENT=103 in MariaDB 10.3.1.
Everything else has been rewritten by me. Thanks to Elena Stepanova,
the code has been tested extensively.
When rolling back an instant ADD COLUMN operation, we must empty the
PAGE_FREE list after deleting or shortening the 'default row' record,
by calling either btr_page_empty() or btr_page_reorganize(). We must
know the size of each entry in the PAGE_FREE list. If rollback left a
freed copy of the 'default row' in the PAGE_FREE list, we would be
unable to determine its size (if it is in ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or
ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC) because it would contain more fields than the
rolled-back definition of the clustered index.
UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT: A new special constant that designates an instantly
added column that is not present in the clustered index record.
len_is_stored(): Check if a length is an actual length. There are
two magic length values: UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT, UNIV_SQL_NULL.
dict_col_t::def_val: The 'default row' value of the column. If the
column is not added instantly, def_val.len will be UNIV_SQL_DEFAULT.
dict_col_t: Add the accessors is_virtual(), is_nullable(), is_instant(),
instant_value().
dict_col_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status of
a column.
dict_col_t::name(const dict_table_t& table): Replaces
dict_table_get_col_name().
dict_index_t::n_core_fields: The original number of fields.
For secondary indexes and if instant ADD COLUMN has not been used,
this will be equal to dict_index_t::n_fields.
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes: Number of bytes needed to
represent the null flags; usually equal to UT_BITS_IN_BYTES(n_nullable).
dict_index_t::NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES: Magic value signalling that
n_core_null_bytes was not initialized yet from the clustered index
root page.
dict_index_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_clust(),
get_n_nullable(), instant_field_value().
dict_index_t::instant_add_field(): Adjust clustered index metadata
for instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_index_t::remove_instant(): Remove the 'instant ADD' status
of a clustered index when the table becomes empty, or the very first
instant ADD COLUMN operation is rolled back.
dict_table_t: Add the accessors is_instant(), is_temporary(),
supports_instant().
dict_table_t::instant_add_column(): Adjust metadata for
instant ADD COLUMN.
dict_table_t::rollback_instant(): Adjust metadata on the rollback
of instant ADD COLUMN.
prepare_inplace_alter_table_dict(): First create the ctx->new_table,
and only then decide if the table really needs to be rebuilt.
We must split the creation of table or index metadata from the
creation of the dictionary table records and the creation of
the data. In this way, we can transform a table-rebuilding operation
into an instant ADD COLUMN operation. Dictionary objects will only
be added to cache when table rebuilding or index creation is needed.
The ctx->instant_table will never be added to cache.
dict_table_t::add_to_cache(): Modified and renamed from
dict_table_add_to_cache(). Do not modify the table metadata.
Let the callers invoke dict_table_add_system_columns() and if needed,
set can_be_evicted.
dict_create_sys_tables_tuple(), dict_create_table_step(): Omit the
system columns (which will now exist in the dict_table_t object
already at this point).
dict_create_table_step(): Expect the callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
pars_create_table(): Before creating the table creation execution
graph, invoke dict_table_add_system_columns().
row_create_table_for_mysql(): Expect all callers to invoke
dict_table_add_system_columns().
create_index_dict(): Replaces row_merge_create_index_graph().
innodb_update_n_cols(): Renamed from innobase_update_n_virtual().
Call my_error() if an error occurs.
btr_cur_instant_init(), btr_cur_instant_init_low(),
btr_cur_instant_root_init():
Load additional metadata from the clustered index and set
dict_index_t::n_core_null_bytes. This is invoked
when table metadata is first loaded into the data dictionary.
dict_boot(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for the four hard-coded
dictionary tables.
dict_create_index_step(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes. This is
executed as part of CREATE TABLE.
dict_index_build_internal_clust(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes to
NO_CORE_NULL_BYTES if table->supports_instant().
row_create_index_for_mysql(): Initialize n_core_null_bytes for
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
commit_cache_norebuild(): Call the code to rename or enlarge columns
in the cache only if instant ADD COLUMN is not being used.
(Instant ADD COLUMN would copy all column metadata from
instant_table to old_table, including the names and lengths.)
PAGE_INSTANT: A new 13-bit field for storing dict_index_t::n_core_fields.
This is repurposing the 16-bit field PAGE_DIRECTION, of which only the
least significant 3 bits were used. The original byte containing
PAGE_DIRECTION will be accessible via the new constant PAGE_DIRECTION_B.
page_get_instant(), page_set_instant(): Accessors for the PAGE_INSTANT.
page_ptr_get_direction(), page_get_direction(),
page_ptr_set_direction(): Accessors for PAGE_DIRECTION.
page_direction_reset(): Reset PAGE_DIRECTION, PAGE_N_DIRECTION.
page_direction_increment(): Increment PAGE_N_DIRECTION
and set PAGE_DIRECTION.
rec_get_offsets(): Use the 'leaf' parameter for non-debug purposes,
and assume that heap_no is always set.
Initialize all dict_index_t::n_fields for ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records,
even if the record contains fewer fields.
rec_offs_make_valid(): Add the parameter 'leaf'.
rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple(): Assert that the tuple is only built
on the core fields. Instant ADD COLUMN only applies to the
clustered index, and we should never build a search key that has
more than the PRIMARY KEY and possibly DB_TRX_ID,DB_ROLL_PTR.
All these columns are always present.
dict_index_build_data_tuple(): Remove assertions that would be
duplicated in rec_copy_prefix_to_dtuple().
rec_init_offsets(): Support ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT records whose
number of fields is between n_core_fields and n_fields.
cmp_rec_rec_with_match(): Implement the comparison between two
MIN_REC_FLAG records.
trx_t::in_rollback: Make the field available in non-debug builds.
trx_start_for_ddl_low(): Remove dangerous error-tolerance.
A dictionary transaction must be flagged as such before it has generated
any undo log records. This is because trx_undo_assign_undo() will mark
the transaction as a dictionary transaction in the undo log header
right before the very first undo log record is being written.
btr_index_rec_validate(): Account for instant ADD COLUMN
row_undo_ins_remove_clust_rec(): On the rollback of an insert into
SYS_COLUMNS, revert instant ADD COLUMN in the cache by removing the
last column from the table and the clustered index.
row_search_on_row_ref(), row_undo_mod_parse_undo_rec(), row_undo_mod(),
trx_undo_update_rec_get_update(): Handle the 'default row'
as a special case.
dtuple_t::trim(index): Omit a redundant suffix of an index tuple right
before insert or update. After instant ADD COLUMN, if the last fields
of a clustered index tuple match the 'default row', there is no
need to store them. While trimming the entry, we must hold a page latch,
so that the table cannot be emptied and the 'default row' be deleted.
btr_cur_optimistic_update(), btr_cur_pessimistic_update(),
row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), row_ins_clust_index_entry_low():
Invoke dtuple_t::trim() if needed.
row_ins_clust_index_entry(): Restore dtuple_t::n_fields after calling
row_ins_clust_index_entry_low().
rec_get_converted_size(), rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Allow the number
of fields to be between n_core_fields and n_fields. Do not support
infimum,supremum. They are never supposed to be stored in dtuple_t,
because page creation nowadays uses a lower-level method for initializing
them.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Assign the status bits based on the
number of fields.
btr_cur_trim(): In an update, trim the index entry as needed. For the
'default row', handle rollback specially. For user records, omit
fields that match the 'default row'.
btr_cur_optimistic_delete_func(), btr_cur_pessimistic_delete():
Skip locking and adaptive hash index for the 'default row'.
row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec(): Replace 'default row' values if needed.
In the temporary file that is applied by row_log_table_apply(),
we must identify whether the records contain the extra header for
instantly added columns. For now, we will allocate an additional byte
for this for ROW_T_INSERT and ROW_T_UPDATE records when the source table
has been subject to instant ADD COLUMN. The ROW_T_DELETE records are
fine, as they will be converted and will only contain 'core' columns
(PRIMARY KEY and some system columns) that are converted from dtuple_t.
rec_get_converted_size_temp(), rec_init_offsets_temp(),
rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): Add the parameter 'status'.
REC_INFO_DEFAULT_ROW = REC_INFO_MIN_REC_FLAG | REC_STATUS_COLUMNS_ADDED:
An info_bits constant for distinguishing the 'default row' record.
rec_comp_status_t: An enum of the status bit values.
rec_leaf_format: An enum that replaces the bool parameter of
rec_init_offsets_comp_ordinary().
