I won't use this. We have enough problems when limited to one storage engine. All of those should be fixed first. If I want to use PBXT (and I do) then I will stop using InnoDB (and I might).
When will we have cross-engine deadlock detection?
When storage engines will start using a central server-wide deadlock detector (that exists).
Interesting... I did not know that this existed.
Any idea of the performance? As we have seen from Mark's blog, it can be critical.
I've written it for Maria engine, but as a server global (not Maria engine specific) detector detector. It could be used by other server components. Because it's not really used yet (besides stress unit tests), I couldn't compare the performance with anything or come up with any meaningful performance numbers. It has no global mutexes, every node of a global wait-for graph has an individual lock, so any number of threads may modify different parts of the wait-for graph without waiting for each other. It's not a lock manager, but only a deadlock detector - in a sense it's "wait manager", an engine (or any other server subsystem) only needs to use it before starting to wait on anything, in a simplified view it's a replacement for pthread_cond_wait.
