[Maria-developers] Updating MySQL Client Protocol: Possible and still be backward compatible?
by Adam Scott 04 Sep '14

04 Sep '14

Is it possible to have mysql client protocol return the OS username and allow the protocol to backward compatible? Looking to see if reasonable to provide same functionality as Oracle does with select sys_context( 'userenv', 'os_user' ) from dual;

[Maria-developers] doubt about mdev 4682 - tests
by Roberto Spadim 04 Sep '14

04 Sep '14

Guys, i'm with time and was looking an old patch about query cache information schema https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-4682 it add an statistic about query cache hits my doubt is... i was trying to understand how could i create tests, since the result of statistic isn't deterministic how should i execute a test case like this? columns that i have doubt: columns ... QUERY_ROWS <- deterministic SELECT_ROWS_READ <- deterministic QUERY_HITS <- deterministic QUERY_HITS_PERIOD_LOW <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_PERIOD_HIGH <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_PERIOD_OUTLIERS <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_TOTAL_TIME_US <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_MEAN_PERIOD_US <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_MEAN_PERIOD_LOW_US <- non deterministic QUERY_HITS_MEAN_PERIOD_HIGH_US <- non deterministic QUERY_INSERT_TIME <- probably deterministic (or not?) QUERY_LAST_HIT_TIME <- probably deterministic (or not?) SELECT_EXPEND_TIME_US <- non deterministic SELECT_LOCK_TIME_US <- non deterministic ... -- Roberto Spadim

[Maria-developers] Query in size
by Kavneet Kaur 04 Sep '14

04 Sep '14

Hi all, I just when through a revision~maria-captains/mariadb-java-client/trunk : /src/test/java/org/mariadb/jdbc/BigQueryTest.java (revision 516)Big Query activated in this code contains a character array of size 20000000. This is something that can be modified. All big queries possible cannot occupy this space. This is sort of leading to more of wastage of memory. Can anyone help me understand why this size has been selected when the same could be done at a size (50-90)% lesser. Regards Kavneet Kaur

Hi, James, I am aiming to become am interested in data security and reducing query time by increasing efficiency and computational speed. Coding and optimizing codes are also cup of my tea. How can I contribute this in MariaDB as it's the only open source database software that attracted me.

[Maria-developers] Please review: 10% performance improvement for INSERT INTO t1 (blob) VALUES ('long value')
by Alexander Barkov 26 Aug '14

26 Aug '14

Hi, I think I found and fixed a bottleneck in how string literals are processed. The attached patch improves INSERT performance for strings, and especially for long blob and text values. Insertion time for 10MByte blob 1024 times (10GByte of data total) reduced on my laptop from 300 seconds to 274 seconds, which gives near 10% pure time improvement. What the patch changes: Before the patch : 1. The function get_text() is sql_lex.cc allocated an unescaped copy of every string literal (unescaping backslashes and double quotes, if any). Strangely, copying happened even if there were no really any escapes in the string. 2, The syntax parser in sql_yacc.yy created Item_string using the new unescaped buffer. Furthermore, in case of a multi-byte connection character set, the constructor for Item_string made another loop on the unescaped buffer, to calculate length in characters, which is needed to set max_length properly. After the patch: Item is now created using directly the SQL fragment, without making a copy. Even for escaped values!!! Length in characters is also calculated during the very first pass in get_text(), without any additional loops in the Item constructors. Unescaping is now done in the very end, when the value is actually needed: - Either in Field::store(). This happens when the string value is used in: INSERT INTO t1 VALUES('string'); Unescaping is done directly to the Field buffer, without any intermediary temporary storage. - Or in val_str(), if the string value is used elsewhere (in SELECT list, functions, operators, etc). The unescaped value is cached, to make sure that unescaping is done only one time, even if the value is needed for multiple rows, like in: SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE a='string with backslash or quote escapes'; The patch also fixes a few bugs related to string conversion/copying (some of them were reported on JIRA earlier, and some of them I found while working on the patch). Please also find "a.c" attached. I used it to test the improvement. I used a RelWithDebInfo compiled binary for tests. Note, "perf" and "valgrind --tool=cachegrind" also demonstrate a good improvement (reduced CPU and memory usage). I can send their statistics in a separate letter, if anyone is interested. Please review the patch. Thanks.

[Maria-developers] List affecting CVEs at mariadb.com
by Otto Kekäläinen 26 Aug '14

26 Aug '14

Hello Daniel (and others), The usual changelogs[1] and relese notes[2] don't seem to contain CVE identifiers, or even a separate section about fixed security issues For the downstream security teams if would be reassuring if the CVE information would be easily available. For example if the security teams follow the CVE news and they for example know or suspect that CVE-2014-4260 affects MariaDB, it would be nice to see if it is already fixed or what version it was fixed in, so downstream security teams can organize and prioritize their patching and release work. Do you have any suggestion how to address this? Should we maybe have a separate wiki page, e.g. https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/cve/ that would have a table of CVEs and MariaDB 5.5/10.0/Galera versions where they are fixed? Or should just each release notes include a subsection "Security" with these details? Something else? Of course we need to consider timing issues, e.g. a security issue fixed in MariaDB might get publicity and a CVE only later when Oracle releases it, and in those cases old release notes need to be upgraded to include the CVE identifiers. [1] https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-10013-changelog/ [2] https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-10013-release-notes/ (To be exact, googling for 'mariadb cve' does give one hit at mariadb.com in the 5.3.12 release notes)
