[Maria-developers] Any plans about starting to use /var/lib/mariadb for data instead of /var/lib/mysql?
by Otto Kekäläinen 24 Jul '14

24 Jul '14

Hello! Does the MariaDB project have any plans about switching the data dir to /var/lib/mariadb in some release? In Debian there has been discussion about separating the binary-incompatible MySQL forks into separate /var/lib/<fork> to ease maintenance and secure data so that purging some packages will not accidentally delete data that another package uses. The thread is named "Discussion on handling 5.6 related matters" and available at http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-mysql-maint/2014-July/thread.h… I'd appreciate any guidelines here on what the upstream plans are. The Debian MySQL/MariaDB packaging team willl have an IRC meeting tomorrow at 16:00 UTC and I need to express my opinion on the mattes and what kind of changes I'm willing to do to the MariaDB package. Obviously I'd like to follow upstream as much as possible to keep the delta between Debian and upstream small and thus the maintenance burden reasonable. -- Check out our blog at http://seravo.fi/blog and follow @ottokekalainen

The patch is pretty much "ok to push", but, first I want to understand why you deleted table_file_summary.cc file.

I'd think that a simple DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS performance_schema should be enough to replace the whole file.

This is somewhat questionable feature. Queries served from qc don't take much time, which means that @@query_response_time_range_base should be different for them. Otherwise all qc hits will be in the first few slots. But a different base means a different table (QUERY_CACHE_RESPONSE_TIME ?) and a different set of configuration variables. On the other hand, this current implementation is much simpler. So I think we can accept this patch. But I don't know how useful it'll be. Alternatively, you can do a separate I_S table for QC. As you like. > diff --git a/plugin/query_response_time/mysql-test/query_response_time/query_response_time-stored.result b/plugin/query_response_time/mysql-test/query_response_time/query_response_time-stored.result > index bec7007..e487fc5 100644 > --- a/plugin/query_response_time/mysql-test/query_response_time/query_response_time-stored.result > +++ b/plugin/query_response_time/mysql-test/query_response_time/query_response_time-stored.result > @@ -40,51 +40,51 @@ SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES where Variable_name like 'QUERY_RESPONSE_TIME_RANGE_BASE'; > Variable_name Value > query_response_time_range_base 2 > SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.QUERY_RESPONSE_TIME; I'd rather replaced * with TIME,COUNT,TOTAL - less changes and more future proof. > -TIME COUNT TOTAL > - 0.000001 45 0.000000 > +TIME COUNT TOTAL QC_HITS_COUNT QC_HITS_TOTAL > + 0.000001 45 0.000000 0 0.000000 ...

[Maria-developers] Why does name resolution stop in crash stack trace?
by Sergey Petrunia 21 Jul '14

21 Jul '14

Hi, Look at today's crash report in maria-discuss@. A question not related to the cause of that crash: why do stack traces that go inside the storage engine cannot be resolved? Is something wrong with our build process?

Hi All, There will be a little delay in the ninth week blog post. I need to get the code reviewed first to make the final changes. You can check the commit here <https://github.com/srirampatil/server/commit/3611bfc644714b797acff8b9884e7d…> though. I have also fixed MDEV-6409 <https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-6409> and it is under review too. Regards, Sriram

[Maria-developers] Java Connector Coding till 20th July
by Puneet Dewan 20 Jul '14

20 Jul '14

Hi Everyone, Sorry,I did not update in the last week. It is because of my convocation and was meeting my parents after one year in Singapore, so enjoyed a small vacation of 5 days with them. I had code review and discussion with Massimo in that week. But I thought it is better to update next week. Things done: 1.I had initially written code in MySQLPreparedStatement.java but the code was getting ugly so as per recommnedation from Vladislav,I also discussed with my mentor.So we thought of using MySQLServerSidePreparedStatement as this will make code more cleaner. Now prepareStatement method in MySQLConnection will become the factory method to provide either MySQLPreparedStatement or MySQLServerSidePreparedStatement instance. I have migrated my code to MySQLServerSidePreparedStatement. 2.Test case for determining the type of instance, MySQLPreparedStatement or MySQLServerSidePreparedStatement. Next plan: 1.Write executeQuery and executeUpdate methods 2.For executeQuery, need to decide how I can use BinaryProtocolResultset to fetch results from a select query. 3.Write methods for batchstatements and multiqueries. Regards Puneet.

[Maria-developers] [GSoC] Optimize mysql-test-runs - Results of new strategy
by Pablo Estrada 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hello everyone, I took the last couple of days working on a new strategy to calculate the relevance of a test. The results are not sufficient by themselves, but I believe they point to an interesting direction. This strategy uses that rate of co-occurrence of events to estimate the relevance of a test, and the events that it uses are the following: - File editions since last run - Test failure in last run The strategy has also two stages: 1. Training stage 2. Executing stage In the training stage, it goes through the available data, and does the following: - If test A failed: - It counts and stores all the files that were edited since the last test_run (the last test_run depends on BRANCH, PLATFORM, and other factors) - If test A failed also in the previous test run, it also counts that In the executing stage, the training algorithm is still applied, but the decision of whether a test runs is based on its relevance, the relevance is calculated as the sum of the following: - The percentage of times a test has failed in two subsequent test_runs, multiplied by whether the test failed in the previous run (if the test didn't fail in the previous run, this quantity is 0) - For each file that was edited since the last test_run, the percentage of times that the test has failed after this file was edited (The explanation is a bit clumsy, I can clear it up if you wish so) The results have not been too bad, nor too good. With a running set of 200 tests, a training phase of 3000 test runs, and an executing stage of 2000 test runs, I have achieved recall of 0.50. It's not too great, nor too bad. Nonetheless, while running tests, I found something interesting: - I removed the first factor of the relevance. I decided to not care about whether a test failed in the previous test run. I was only using the file-change factor. Naturally, the recall decreased, from 0.50 to 0.39 (the decrease was not too big)... and the distribution of failed tests in the priority queue had a good skew towards the front of the queue (so it seems that the files help somewhat, to indicate the likelihood of a failure). I attached this chart. An interesting problem that I encountered was that about 50% of the test_runs don't have any file changes nor test failures, and so the relevance of all tests is zero. Here is where the original strategy (a weighted average of failures) could be useful, so that even if we don't have any information to guess which tests to run, we just go ahead and run the ones that have failed the most, recently. I will work on mixing up both strategies a bit in the next few days, and see what comes of that. By the way, I pushed the code to github. The code is completely different, so may be better to wait until I have new results soon. Regards! Pablo

[Maria-developers] Java Connector Coding till 5th June
by Puneet Dewan 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hi Everyone, The work done till 5th June: 1.I started studying the connector immediately after my semester exams got over(5th May). 2. Understood the relationship between different classes. 3.Read the MySql documentation for text protocol and map the commands from documentation onto code.This thing gave a clear idea about how things are moving from client to server. 4.Setup the code on Ubuntu using eclipse and tested against database. Setup the Team branch in launchpad. 5.Debug the test classes to see how different classes are interlinked and understood that MySQLProtocol.java is the heart of our JDBC driver. 6.Then I started reading Client Server Protocol documentation i.e ServerSide prepared statement and try to see how and where I have to code it. 7.Then I saw that there is a class MySqlServerSidePreparedStatement.java, Initially I coded the prepareStatement() ,close(),and execute() in that class seperately. But after (Code review) discussion with Massimo, we donot need to use that class. Instead use MySqlPreparedStatement.java to do the same work.So made changes accordingly. 8.I had pushed some of the code which I have written to launchpad and discussed with Massimo last week. 9.Last week I was struck with Wireshark on windows and ubuntu both. I was unable to see the packets going to database and seeing the response. 10.On Monday the problem was resolved as I was using the wrong interface.I should have used loopback.io(127.0.0.1) instead on ubuntu(thanks to Georg). Unfortunately the thing does not work on windows.Tried a lot many times. 11.Now I am working on the execute method of client server protocol as I am getting exception while using that method.Wireshark is playing a great role in how the packets are flowing. >From now I will do weekly blogging and keep everyone updated. Thanks & Regards Puneet.
