[Maria-developers] KB Question: Storage engine plugin that "proxies" another engine?
by Daniel Bartholomew 08 Apr '13

The following question has been posted to the AskMonty Knowledgebase: https://kb.askmonty.org/en/storage-engine-plugin-that-proxies-another-engin… - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Storage engine plugin that "proxies" another engine? I would like to write a plugin that adds transparent versioning support for table rows. The idea is one would create a table and specify something like "Engine=Versioned", which would create two regular tables in InnoDB/MyISAM. One table to hold the current data, and one to hold a couple of previous versions. Then, when running UPDATE/DELETE statements, the "versioned" engine would first copy the current data to the "history" table and then forward the statement to the underlying storage engine. Is this possible to do in a nice way using the plugin architecture?

This function creates and opens quite a few files, you could use one of them to mark it for atomic writes, and if that would fail, you'd disable atomic writes, and wouldn't change innobase_file_flush_method and innobase_use_doublewrite. Btw, why not to use posix_fallocate whenever it's available? Or, at least, with its own --innodb-use-fallocate option? Regards, Sergei

[Maria-developers] MDEV-4145/MWL#253 review feedback (unfinished)

Hello Igor, Please find some review feedback below. ===== sql_statistics.cc has this line with comment: > If the value the variable 'use_stat_tables' is set to > "preferably" the optimizer uses a particular statistical data only if > it can't be found in the statistical data. the part > uses a particular statistical data > only if it can't be found > in the statistical data. doesn't seem to make any sense. Is this a typo? ===== sql_statistics.cc: collect_statistics_for_table() has this code: > table_field->collected_stats->cleanup(); > } > bitmap_clear_all(table->write_set); Why suddenly no indentation on the line with the bitmap_clear_all() call? This looks as if a merge has gone wrong, please fix. ===== sql_statistics.cc has this : > class Table_stat: public Stat_table > { > > private: > > Field *db_name_field; /* Field for the column table_stats.db_name */ Why do all class definitions start with 'private:'? It is active by default in C++. The code looks as if it was auto-translated from some other language. ===== I see that my progress reporting patch from November is not part of the tree yet. ===== I don't any code that would check if table DDLs of statistical tables are what the server expects them to be. I think the check should be made, just like it is made for mysql.proc and other tables. ==== Then I started to play with the code and have filed MDEV-4350, MDEV-4357, MDEV-4359, MDEV-4360, MDEV-4362, MDEV-4363, MDEV-4364. I find it difficult to proceed when there are so many simple counterexamples. BR Sergei -- Sergei Petrunia, Software Developer Monty Program AB, http://askmonty.org Blog: http://s.petrunia.net/blog

[Maria-developers] read_buffer_size query
by Ian Gilfillan 02 Apr '13

02 Apr '13

Hi I'm working on adding complete descriptions to the knowledgebase for all the server variables right now, and have a query on the read_buffer_size variable. The default in my MariaDB 10.0.1 seems to be 2097152, but it's listed on the MySQL docs with a default of 131072. I can't find a mention in the changelogs of this having changed - can anyone tell me in which version the change in default happened? Also, in the MySQL documentation, this variable is described as applying to MyISAM tables, while in the only short description on the Knowledgebase I can find, at https://kb.askmonty.org/en/mysqld-options-full-list/, it's described more generally, not specifically mentioning MyISAM. Does this variable apply to other storage engines as well now (Aria?), or still only MyISAM? thanks, ian gilfillan

Hi, When I added my 10.0-mdev26 tree to buildbot, I got some strange errors on the kvm-fulltest2 builder. I finally tracked it down to be caused by the OOM killer killing random processes. The root issue is Cassandra. At some point it seems cassandra was enabled in the VM used by the fulltest2 builder. However, just starting up Cassandra creates a jsvc process that uses 3.4 _gigabyte_ of memory, 1.3 GB of which is resident. That is too much... I also noticed that cassandra tests are not even run, plugins.cassandra is skipped due to cassandra not running. Possibly this is because the OOM killer has killed the process ;-). In any case, for now I have disabled cassandra on the -fulltest VMs: sudo update-rc.d cassandra disable If someone wants to re-enable it, feel free, but please first make sure that it does not cause unrelated test failures due to excessive memory usage! I would suggest not to run cassandra by default, instead add a separate buildbot step that explicitly starts up cassandra when needed. ---- In general, I am disappointed about the state of our trees. This problem seems to have been there for more than a month without anyone doing anything, and there are tons of other test failures in 10.0 and 10.0-base. We need to tighten up our processes here. Remember, the rules are that anything major should be green in a feature tree before pushing to a main tree. Clearly this is not what is happening at the moment. It's ridiculous to constantly hear people pressing for release of 10.0.2-beta when our trees are not even alpha state ... - Kristian.
