If thats the case, there is no reason to test for these. There is no reason to test for read_callback or write_callback as we will always get a crash if these are not set (a few lines later).

It would of course be good to always use the function pagecache_file_init() to set all callbacks instead of setting these directly. To do this, you could change ma_open.c:: _ma_set_data_pagecache_callbacks() to use the above function instead of setting these directly. This way we would know for sure that either none or all are set and we don't need to do any DBUG_ASSERT() of these elements in the code. Regards, Monty

[Maria-developers] Please test: fix for BUG#913030
by Sergei Petrunia 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hi Elena, I need a separate test run of semi-join subquery tests on this branch: bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/maria/5.3-bug913030 I need it because the bugfix in this branch changes the order in which join optimizer considers query plans for semi-join subqueries. For synthetic data that RQG works on, this can have an effect that the query plans that were not choosen before will not be used. BUG#913030 is a high-priority 5.3 bug, so this is fairly urgent.

[Maria-developers] Analysing MariaDB 5.5 sysbench performance regression
by Kristian Nielsen 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

I have been analysing the performance difference between MariaDB 5.5.21 and MySQL 5.5.21 using oltp.lua in sysbench 0.5. It turns out that MySQL has about 8% higher tps in this benchmark when running CPU bound. (See below for links to blog posts that started this). I took the base sysbench run and tweaked it to get stable numbers - basically put the datadir in ramdisk and adjusted my.cnf a bit (more details below). Then I used OProfile to analyse where the difference comes from. Oprofile is a really great tool for this kind of analysis, where CPU time spent is the measurement. It is very easy to use, and it gives detailed and accurate measurements on how much time is spent in each function. It is then easy to compare this against MySQL and find where we have performance regressions. Then further details is available by adding call graph to the reports, which shows from where the expensive parts are called; and by using the annotation facility which annotates every function and puts execution times on the individual statement and assembler functions. Here is an overview of where the extra time is spent. Time is in units of samples, which is 1/100000 of a clock cycle. Total was around 4.15M samples. Here are the top functions I found used more time in MariaDB, and the amount of extra samples spent in MariaDB: 39k mysql_select 20k alloc_root 16k JOIN::choose_subquery_plan 10k thd_ha_data 10k make_sortkey() 9k get_best_combination 9k handler::read_range_next 7k handler::ha_thd 7k update_ref_and_keys 7k Item::cmp_type 6k Item::operator delete 5k ha_maria::implicit_commit 4k end_write 4k sort_and_filter_keyuse 4k my_interval_timer 4k st_select_lex::master_unit 4k st_select_lex::save_leaf_tables 4k sel_arg_range_seq_next 4k thd_test_options 4k Item_func::walk 4k TABLE::init 4k sub_select 3k strnmov 3k ut_free 3k vio_write 3k ut_malloc_low 2k setup_tables 2k create_ref_for_key Some care is needed to interpret these data. GCC -O3 does heavy inlining. Oprofile is a statistical profiler, so numbers are somewhat uncertain, more so for smaller numbers. And modern CPUs are superscalar, out-of-order, and hyper-threaded, which makes interpreting individual instruction costs higly challenging. But the list can be used to drill down into the actual code; opannotate --source --assembler is very enlightening, in my experience (few examples below). >From this list, it seems that - not surprising - the 5.3 optimiser features seem to have added a bit of overhead. Much of this is spread out over many places in the code, though it could be that the root cause comes from few inlined functions. I checked mysql_select(), and most of the overhead is from lp:941889, expensive constructors in JOIN, which was inlined by GCC. I believe Sergey plans to fix this. More analysis of the individual functions is needed to find the cause there. It seems we are also using alloc_root() somewhat more. thd_ha_data and maybe handler_thd are likely due to using dynamically loaded innodb_plugin rather than built-in. I would like to do more analysis (and would probably need help from optimiser-knowledgable people for most of it) - I think it is feasible to remove most of the overhead in a modest time frame. But my main point is to present these results, to show that we have a very useful tool to pin-point these performance issues, and to start discussion in more detail (and I have plenty more of those). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- More background: These benchmarks started from these blog posts: http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2012/02/18/mariadb-5-3-4-benchmarks/ http://blog.montyprogram.com/benchmarking-mariadb-5-3-4/ The main difference in these tests seem to be caused by different XtraDB buffer pool flush algorithm. So Axel tried using innodb_pluing in MariaDB instead, and got much smaller differences - but a difference was still there. So for 5.5 I took Axel's benchmark, adjusted until I got stable, fully cpu-bound numbers, and analysed the results, as above. I have the actual scripts and my.cnf available if anyone is interested. Main point is datadir in ramdisk, reducing redo log size to 300MB total, and running for 30 seconds. As examples, I analysed a handful of cases, and came up with two simple patches for specific issues. One is update_virtual_fields(), which originally accounted for 0.5% of total time in sysbench. This seems to be called for every row, so just the push/pop of registers in function prologue became significant. I fixed this with below patch; it puts a NULL pointer into the table instead of an empty list of virtual fields, and guards a few frequent calls with an if (NULL) check. Another is my_hash_sort_simple(). This is not a regression, but Oprofile shows we spend 10% of total time in this function. opannotate of the assembler showed the problem. Below simple patch speeds it up by 33%, by reducing 4 memory loads per loop to 2. Still, it would be nice to understand why this is called that much - here is the call stack: my_hash_sort_simple() ha_heap::write_row(). evaluate_join_record() sub_select() do_select() JOIN::exec() mysql_select() It would be nice to understand why this is needed - this is an expensive function, it needs to lookup every character in the collation tables. If this could be eliminated, that alone would probably be enough to win over MySQL, even without fixing any of the regressions. Some other top contenders in the profile are innodb functions. For example buf_calc_page_new_checksum(). This is expensive, as it needs to loop over every byte in each buffer pool page (16K), computing a 7-long dependency chain for each byte. This could be much faster if the checksum was done on 8-byte longwords, but AFAIK, it's not trivial to change the checksum algorithm due to the migration issues. Facebook may have done some work on this. Another top contender is row_sel_store_mysql_rec() and similar - they show high costs in the opannotate on loads from the records, this is probably cache misses from accessing pages in the buffer pool - not too much to do about that I think. Hope this helps, - Kristian. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Patch for my_hash_sort_simple(): === modified file 'strings/ctype-simple.c' --- strings/ctype-simple.c 2012-01-13 14:50:02 +0000 +++ strings/ctype-simple.c 2012-03-16 16:34:31 +0000 @@ -306,19 +306,24 @@ void my_hash_sort_simple(CHARSET_INFO *c { register const uchar *sort_order=cs->sort_order; const uchar *end; + ulong n1, n2; /* Remove end space.

(SJM-RULE) + +Substitution with SJMs - solution +================================= + +First, we introduce global strict table ordering like this: + + ot1 - ot2 --\ /--- ot3 -- ot5 + \--- it1 --- it2 --/ + +Now, let's see how to meet (SJM-RULE). + +SJ-Materialization is only applicable for uncorrelated subqueries. From this, it +follows that any multiple equality will either +1. include only columns of outer tables, or +2. include only columns of inner tables, or +3. include columns of inner and outer tables, joined together through one + of IN-equalities. + +Cases #1 and #2 can be handled in the same way as with regular inner joins. + +Case #3 requires special handling, so that we don't construct violations of +(SJM-RULE). Let's consider possible ways to build violations. + +Equality propagation starts with the clause in this form + + top_query_where AND subquery_where AND in_equalities + +First, it builds multi-equalities. It can also build a mixed multi-equality + + multiple-equal(ot1.col, ot2.col, ... it1.col, itN.col) + +Multi-equalities are pushed down the OR-clauses in top_query_where and in +subquery_where, so it's possible that clauses like this one are built: + + subquery_cond OR (multiple-equal(it1.col, ot1.col,...) AND ...) + ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ \ + | this must be evaluated + \- can only be invaluated on the main phase. + on materialization phase + +Finally, equality substitution is started. It does two operations: + + +1. Field reference substitution +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +(In the code, this is Item_field::replace_equal_field) + +This is a process of replacing each reference to "tblX.col" +with the first element of the multi-equality. (REF-SUBST-ORIG) + +This behaviour can cause problems with Semi-join nests. Suppose, we have a +condition: + + func(it1.col, it2.col) + +and a multi-equality(ot1.col, it1.col). Then, reference to "it1.col" will be +replaced with "ot1.col", constructing a condition + + func(ot1.col, it2.col) + +which will be a vioation of (SJM-RULE). + +In order to avoid this, (REF-SUBST-ORIG) is amended as follows: + +- references to tables "itX.col" that are inner wrt some SJM nest, are + replaced with references to the first inner table from the same SJM nest. + +- references to top-level tables "otX.col" are replaced with references to + the first element of the multi-equality, no matter if that first element is + a column of a top-level table or of table from some SJM nest. + (REF-SUBST-SJM) + + The case where the first element is a table from an SJM nest $SJM is ok, + because it can be proven that $SJM uses SJ-Materialization-Scan, and + "unpacks" correct column values to the first element during the main + execution phase. + +2. Item_equal elimination +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +(In the code: eliminate_item_equal) This is a process of taking + + multiple-equal(a,b,c,d,e) + +and replacing it with an equivalent expression which is an AND of pair-wise +equalities: + + a=b AND a=c AND ... + +The equalities are picked such that for any given join prefix (t1,t2...) the +subset of equalities that can be evaluated gives the most restrictive +filtering. + +Without SJM nests, it is sufficient to compare every multi-equality member +with the first one: + + elem1=elem2 AND elem1=elem3 AND elem1=elem4 ... + +When SJM nests are present, we should take care not to construct equalities +that violate the (SJM-RULE). This is achieved by generating separate sets of +equalites for top-level tables and for inner tables. That is, for the join +order + + ot1 - ot2 --\ /--- ot3 -- ot5 + \--- it1 --- it2 --/ + +we will generate + ot1.col=ot2.col + ot1.col=ot3.col + ot1.col=ot5.col + it2.col=it1.col + + +2.1 The problem with Item_equals and ORs +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +As has been mentioned above, multiple equalities are pushed down into OR +clauses, possibly building clauses like this: + + func(it.col2) OR multiple-equal(it1.col1, it1.col2, ot1.col) (1) + +where the first part of the clause has references to inner tables, while the +second has references to the top-level tables, which is a violation of +(SJM-RULE). + +AND-clauses of this kind do not create problems, because make_cond_for_table() +will take them apart. OR-clauses will not be split. It is possible to +split-out the part that's dependent on the inner table: + + func(it.col2) OR it1.col1=it1.col2 + +but this is a less-restrictive condition than condition (1). Current execution +scheme will still try to generate the "remainder" condition: + + func(it.col2) OR it1.col1=ot1.col + +which is a violation of (SJM-RULE). + +QQ: "ot1.col=it1.col" is checked at the upper level. Why was it not removed +here? +AA: because has a proper subset of conditions that are found on this level. + consider a join order of ot, sjm(it) + and a condition + ot.col=it.col AND ( ot.col=it.col='foo' OR it.col2='bar') + + we will produce: + table ot: nothing + table it: ot.col=it.col AND (ot.col='foo' OR it.col2='bar') + ^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + | \ the problem is that + | this part condition didnt + | receive a substitution + | + +--- it was correct to subst, 'ot' is + the left-most. + + +Is there any merit in pushing inner=outer down into ORs? +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Yes, there is. Consider the query: + + select * from ot + where ot.col in (select it.col from it where (it.col='foo' OR it.col='bar')) + +here, it may be useful to infer that + + (ot.col='foo' OR ot.col='bar') (CASE-FOR-SUBST) + +and attach that condition to the table 'ot'. + +Solution #1 +~~~~~~~~~~~ +Let make_cond_for_table() chop off the bad parts of produced OR clause. If it +has produced an OR clause: +- check if all of its branches are evaluable for the context join_tab +- If some aren't, destroy the OR clause + +Solution #2 +~~~~~~~~~~~ +Before the equality propagation phase, none of the OR clauses violate the +(SJM-RULE). This way, if we remember which tables the original equality +referred to, we can only generate equalities that refer to outer or inner +tables.

[Maria-developers] Autolinks to JIRA from the KB
by Daniel Bartholomew 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

All, I've created some autolinks for referring to JIRA tasks in the AskMonty Knowledgebase. I've documented how to use them on the "JIRA - project planning and tracking" page, but I wanted to make everyone here aware of them. http://kb.askmonty.org/en/jira-project-planning-and-tracking Basically, when you use mdev-xxx or todo-xxx (where xxx is the mdev or todo number) in a Knowledgebase article, the text will automatically be turned into a link to the task in JIRA. No need to copy the full url and paste it into the KB. Thanks. -- Daniel Bartholomew MariaDB - http://mariadb.org Monty Program - http://montyprogram.com AskMonty Knowledgebase - http://kb.askmonty.org
