Re: [Maria-developers] 5.5 merge status

2011-10-07 Thread Sergei Golubchik
Hi, Kristian!

About LOCK_log, LOCK_index, LOCK_thread_count and the Bug#62614:

1. In mysql-5.5.13, that we're merging with, LOCK_thread_count is called
   *after* LOCK_log and LOCK_index. Perhaps it was your merge of log.cc
   where you swapped them.

2. But in the latest 5.5 as on launchpad, LOCK_thread_count comes before
   LOCK_log and LOCK_index - they've changed it recently.

3. LOCK_thd_data should go after LOCK_thread_count, because
   LOCK_thread_count is taken around 'delete thd', and LOCK_thd_data -
   in the THD destructor.

4. LOCK_log should go after LOCK_thd_data, because LOCK_thd_data is
   taken around THD::awake(), and THD::awake() locks,
   mysys_var-current_mutex, which is LOCK_log in
   MYSQL_BIN_LOG::wait_for_update_relay_log()

5. from 3 and 4 follows that LOCK_thread_count should be locked before
   LOCK_log, not after. Incidentally, when I did that, almost all safemutex
   deadlock detector warnings dissapeared (those that I've seen in every
   rpl test; there are be few in individual tests still).

Regards,
Sergei

A maybe provocatice question: Did you consider to discard MySQL 5.5 and
focus on 5.6 instead for the next major MariaDB relelase?

We didn't, as far as I know (which means, this idea is neither rejected
nor accepted :).

But it doesn't change anything for what I'm doing short term - we still
need to complete the 5.5 merge, and then merge 5.6 into it.

Sergei
