[Maria-discuss] MariaDB-10.2.11 Long Time To Start
by Michael Caplan 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

Hi, I'm setting up a replication slave based off of MySQL 5.6. There are a large number of tables (400K). The MySQL 5.6 master takes around 10 minutes to start up, where the new MariaDB 10.2 slave takes close to 30 minutes. What is making the startup take soo long? In the below mysql log, you can see in the startup sequence between "Highest supported file format is Barracuda." and "InnoDB: 128 out of 128 rollback segments are active." the startup process takes the majority of its time: 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Mutexes and rw_locks use GCC atomic builtins 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Uses event mutexes 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Compressed tables use zlib 1.2.8 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Using Linux native AIO 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Number of pools: 1 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Using SSE2 crc32 instructions 2018-01-07 9:38:15 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, total size = 54G, instances = 8, chunk size = 128M 2018-01-07 9:38:18 139980432365760 [Note] InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool 2018-01-07 9:38:18 139918113195776 [Note] InnoDB: If the mysqld execution user is authorized, page cleaner thread priority can be changed.

[Maria-discuss] Chewing Through Swap - Swappiness = 0
by Michael Caplan 09 Mar '19

09 Mar '19

Hi, I'm trying to figure out why my recently put into production MariaDB is so swap hungry. I'm running 10.2.14, with roughly 300GB data (1000K +/- tables). 95% tables are innodb. I have 64GB RAM, with INNODB buffer pool size set to 50GB (full my.cnf below). The OS is Ubuntu 16.04.4. This is a dedicated MariaDB server. I have swappiness set to 0. I started with available swap set to just shy of 1GB. When swap got to 85% used, I bumped swap to 3GB. A day later, swap again was 85% used, and I bumped it to 5GB. A day later, swap again was 85% used, so I bumped it to 15GB. 2 days later 50% of the available swap was used. I restarted the DB moments ago, freeing up all 15GB but 128MB of swap: total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 62G 20G 4.7G 266M 37G 41G Swap: 14G 128M 14G My understanding is that the OS should never allocate swap when swappiness is 0, so that has me confused. I've had similar issues with MySQL 5.6 (what I upgraded from) dipping into swap, but that instance had swappiness set to 1, and never consumed more than 5GB of swap. Questions: 1) How much of this is an OS issue vs MariaDB issue? 2) What MariaDB config vars should I be looking at to fix this issue? 3) What linux config vars should I be looking at to fix this issue?

[Maria-discuss] Updating user's max_connections without restart
by Staffan 28 Nov '18

28 Nov '18

Hi, I've tried to change a user's max_connections after the limit has been reached (connection attempts return "has exceeded the 'max_connections_per_hour' resource"). With MariaDB 10.2.18, running using the official docker image, we have "select @@max_connections;" returning 100. We have a user created "WITH MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR 50". Now if we bump in to this limit I fail to allow more connections by increasing it. I've tried the following methods (using both 0 and a high value): ALTER USER 'site_devkit_live_index'@'%' WITH MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR 0; UPDATE mysql.user SET max_connections = 0 WHERE user='site_devkit_live_index'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'site_devkit_live_index'@'%' WITH MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR 0; The following indicates that the updates work: USE mysql; SELECT host, user, max_user_connections, max_connections FROM user; I've also tried deleting and re-creating the user. What would it take to make these updates affect the current instance? We'd like to avoid restarts. regards /Staffan

[Maria-discuss] Rocksdb_no_file_closes in MariaDB MyRocks
by Jonas Krauss 19 Nov '18

19 Nov '18

Hi all, I am trying to put a MariaDB MyRocks database into production and right now I am facing problems regarding the memory usage of MyRocks. I haven't been able to identify one specific problem but the following links contained some useful information: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/3216 https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Memory-usage-in-RocksDB The current behavior of the mysqld process is that when putting the database into production (an OLTPish process) on a machine with 64G RAM and a block cache configured with 16G it starts to slowly accumulate more and more memory until swap is used. This is obviously not suitable for production. Currently I am wondering about a particular statistic, the number of open and closed files. *Particularly I am wondering why Rocksdb_no_file_closes is staying a zero at all time while Rocksdb_no_file_opens slowly increases over time.* Does anybody know why that is? Could it be responsible for the steady memory increase? I experimented with the parameter rocksdb_max_open_files, it was set to -1, I tried setting it to 1536, 512 and 128. The lower the value the faster Rocksdb_no_file_opens increases (which seems right). However, at no setting do I see any change in Rocksdb_no_file_closes. Running MariaDB 10.2.18. Here are the settings regarding rocksdb in my.cnf: # MyRocks plugin-load-add = ha_rocksdb.so default-storage-engine = rocksdb default-tmp-storage-engine = MyISAM transaction-isolation = READ-COMMITTED rocksdb_unsafe_for_binlog = 1 # enables statement based replication rocksdb_datadir = /var/local/mysql/rocksdb rocksdb_wal_dir = /var/mysql_logs/rocksdb rocksdb_tmpdir = /var/mysql_logs/rocksdb rocksdb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 0 rocksdb_use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction = 0 rocksdb_use_direct_reads = 0 rocksdb_max_open_files = 512 rocksdb_max_background_jobs = 8 rocksdb_max_total_wal_size = 4G rocksdb_block_size = 64K rocksdb_block_cache_size = 4G rocksdb_table_cache_numshardbits = 6 rocksdb_new_table_reader_for_compaction_inputs = 1 rocksdb_compaction_readahead_size = 4M #rocksdb_db_write_buffer_size = 0 # max write buffer across all column families, zero = disabled # rate limiter rocksdb_bytes_per_sync = 4M rocksdb_wal_bytes_per_sync = 4M rocksdb_rate_limiter_bytes_per_sec = 80M # MB/s.

[Maria-discuss] SHOW CREATE TABLE returns binary data
by Andy Salnikov 19 Nov '18

19 Nov '18

Hi, one puzzling feature that we have observed with mariadb is the encoding of the result returned from "SHOW CREATE TABLE" query. In our Python-based service we issue that query and we expect the result to be returned as Python string, that worked OK except that we discovered that it breaks for one large/wide table. The query returns Python bytes object for that particular table for some reason. I looked at the result returned from query and it looks like the data is returned using different data type, here is a Python example for two different tables: This is a regular (narrow) table and it works as expected: >>> c.execute("SHOW CREATE TABLE `database`.`table1`") >>> c.description (('Table', 253, 13, 64, 64, 39, 0), ('Create Table', 253, 375, 1024, 1024, 39, 0)) 253 in second tuple means that this is a MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING type, which is converted into Python string. this is for very wide table: >>> c.execute("SHOW CREATE TABLE `qservTest_case130_qserv`.`deepCoadd_meas`") >>> c.description (('Table', 253, 14, 64, 64, 39, 0), ('Create Table', 250, 26235, 78705, 78705, 39, 0)) in this case type code is 250 which means MYSQL_TYPE_MEDIUM_BLOB, and Python (correctly) refuses to understand that this is really a string and keeps it as bytes. It looks like this is triggered by the size of the string, but I could not find any document that mentions this unexpected behavior. Is there any documentation that explains what to expect in this case? Can this behavior be changed with some session or server variable? To convert that BLOB into string I'd also need to know the encoding for its contents, is it supposed to be the same as encoding used to send VAR_STRING type or is it some mariadb-internal encoding used by information schema? Thanks, Andy

[Maria-discuss] Pipeline-stype slave parallel applier
by andrei.elkin＠pp.inet.fi 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hello, everybody. Let me offer a bunch of ideas for further improvements in replication, and the parallel one specifically. Your comments, thoughts and critical notes are most welcome! Thank you for your time. Andrei Slave balanced parallel applier ================================ There are a few motivations for this project which include the following reflections: - the slower binlog group transactions applying rate by slave the more transaction sizes differ (must've been few bugs reported): the speed of a caravan is determined by the pace of the slowest camel, or more formally as specified by Amdahl's law (KrinstianN pointed that out to me) - while ordered committing of grouped transactions on slave presents some virtues (like guaranteed consistency with master, monotonic changes to slave execution status as measured by GTID) it still must be taxing on performance. Observe that co-prepared transactions of a master binlog group represent a sort of a transaction on its own. Call it epoch [which must revive memories of NDB cluster], and the original transactions as its sub-transactions or branches. Notice that there is no meaning to sub-transaction internal ordering within the epoch. They can be logged to the binary log in any mutual order, still without exposing any inconsistencies to the user. Specifically, say there are two prepared transactions BEGIN /* A */ BEGIN /* B */ INSERT... INSERT... UPDATE... UPDATE... DELETE... DELETE... COMMIT COMMIT entering the binlog group (ordered) commit module. They can end up into binlog as A,B or B,A, and regardless of that (Gtid actually) order also be acknowledged to the user in either way. The latter fact infers that slave does not have to commit the group sub-transaction/branches in the GTID order. It could be done in any order including no order at all like to do so as one epoch commit. Naturally the latter option is impractical to replication. The current conservative scheduler offers a decent parallelization method still suffering from the aforementioned uneven branch's sizes and inter-thread communications caused by ordering. The optimistic scheduler remedies to some level but not fully (an optimistically executed group may be unbalanced too) and even conceding some risk of performance degradation (rollback is costly). There is an idea reminiscent to pipelining to handle the epoch (the master binlog group) as a single transaction but in parallel. That is to execute its statements by multiple workers, this time scheduling them fairly, and "atomically" commit their works. To the fairness part, workers get assigned by a statement at a time from the epoch transaction(sub-transaction BEGIN, COMMIT removed). Say 'E' an epoch consists of 's' of sub-transaction E := { T_1, T_2, ... T_s } For each m from 1 to s sub-transactions T_m gets scheduled to some worker W_1 W_2 ... W_k | | | V V V T_m := { e_1, e_2, ... e_l } Hereinafter I use the TeX math notation, '^' - a superscript attached to the event to designate its parent transaction sequence number (Gtid seq_no), '_' - a subscript to enumerate an object within its compound object. e_i stands for T-ransation's statements, W_t:s are workers. Effectively the epoch breaks into modified branches executed by workers on one to one basic: E := { T'_1, T'_2, ... T'_k } here 'k' is the number of workers engaged, T' indicates the modified transaction. The branches are executed until they are ready to prepare which event is triggered by scheduling of the last statement of the last original sub-transaction. It's clear that sizes of the modified branches are even this time. The last statement worker coordinates 2pc. Thinking more technically workers can consume/pull from the current epoch presented as a queue which is pushed into by statement producer. Here is a possible state of the queue when m:th statement of T_n is about to be pushed: e^n_k -> [ e^n_m-1, ..., e^n_2, e^n_1; ...; e^1_l1, ... e^1_2, e^1_1 ] ...----- T_n ------------| T_n-1,...T_2 |---------- T_1 ---------| A pull by consumer at this point would return e^1_1. Very likely that by the epoch prepare event *all* the branches have been already ready for prepare(). This pipelining parallelization method can work for the single "large" transaction in the binlog group and also could drag into the parallelizable input transactions from later groups if we additionally create master side dependency tracking (think of mysql logical timestamp method). Also notice that the optimisitic scheduler is orthogonal to this method so the two can be combined. Consistency concern ------------------- The epoch parallel execution (scheduling) must respect intra-transaction statement dependencies (e.g FIFO execution order of operations over the same object [record, table]). There is no inter-transaction dependencies, at least in theory. The notion of a leader, the two-phase-commits leader, remains roughly the same as in the existing conservative scheduler. This time more than initiating commits of the epoch branches it also takes care to advance the slave gtid execution status accordingly. It could be implemented as the very last statement of its own T' branch. It's clear that causal dependencies of an user write and a read (to find the effect of that write) can be tracked by WAIT_FOR_GTID() as currently. A plain two-phase commit does admit possibility to catch on slave combinations of the old (pre-epoch) and new version (post-epoch) or some objects of the same transaction if the user hits with non-locking SELECT in a "tiny" time window between commit():s of two branches like in the following example. Let t1,t2 some tables and the binlog group consists of just one transaction T_1 := { update(t1), update(t2) } Let on slave it's modified into two parallel ones: T'_1 := { update(t1) } || T'2 := { update(t2) } After both respond OK to 2pc prepare() and then the leader initiates commit() where could be 4 possible result sets to the contemporary SELECT SET @@session.tx_isolation='REPEATABLE-READ'; SELECT * from t1 as t_1, t2 as t_2; => ... While this is perhaps more than imperfect, I believe it may be relevant only to remote corner cases, but more importantly, we still can refine that doing some *adjustments* in the Engine studied briefly myself of what would be a sub-transaction in Innodb, "ideologically" endorsed and guided by Marko Makela. The idea is to hold the branch's locks even after the branch commits, and delegate their release to the leader. Recoverability -------------- When slave is configured to log in the binary log we must make sure to rollback any prepared epoch branches at the server recovery unless the last branch (of the leader) is also there, prepared. When it does not binlog the problem is that the modified branch's binlog images can't be just flushed one after another especially if the user specifies to log on the slave uniformly with the master that is to preserve the original sub-transaction structures and their boundaries. In such case there are several multiple option, here are some: - use relay-logged image of original sub-transactions (may be limited to the master and slave version combination though;) - reconstruct original sub-transaction's binlog images. That is binlog events "belonging" to an original sub-transaction will be cached cooperatively by workers that took share of the original sub-transaction execution. Optionally at least the caching could be set to allow out of order while the statements are parallelizable, like in the above T1(t1,t2) example. Otherwise the ordering will be preserved through implementing the shared cache as as a queue with an interface to insert an item into the middle. - exotics like to create the slave side "merge" GTID which would embed the original "commit". (The quotes here to allude to the Git's way). While it's a serious subject I am leaving out mariabackup for this moment. I believe it will be feasible to adjust its logics to account as prepared only such transactions that that are prepared in all their branches. More about pipeline style optimization -------------------------------------- As mentioned workers can be made self-serving to assign events for execution at once when become available. That must turn to think of producer-consumer model, potentially lock-free queues, dynamical # of workers to stay in balance with the receiver's pace etc. I think *eventually* we will need to assign the producer role to the IO (receiver) thread, and convert the current SQL (driver) thread into (relay-) logger (we still may have to have such logger for the semisync replication, the relay logger can be opted out otherwise). Here is a picture IO_thread.push() | +---- worker.pull() V V e^s_i -> [ e^s_i-1, ... e^s_1 }, T_s-1, ... ] ^ | SQL.pull() where on the right hand side the two consumers handle a transaction and when both of them have done with it (a worker has read its last event and the logger written it to the relay-log) the query element becomes garbage-collectable.

[Maria-discuss] Character set & BLOBS on MySQL
by Andrew Wood 07 Nov '18

07 Nov '18

I am in the process of moving some tables from MySQL 5.1 (Linux) MariaDB 10.1 also on Linux. One of the tables stores binary data (either a PDF or JPEG) as a LONGBLOB. The code that reads & writes to the table is PHP and hasnt changed other than having the url of the database server altered. No errors are thrown on reading or writing but JPEGs are coming out corrupted, where as PDFs show fine. I had a hunch it was due to the charset/collation settings even though both tables are identical (the new one was created with the output from mysqldump on the old server). Having run SHOW SESSION VARIABLES LIKE 'character\_set\_%'; on both the old and new server there is a difference but I want to understand why this might be causing the problem before I alter anything. New server: MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW SESSION VARIABLES LIKE 'character\_set\_%'; +------------------------------------+-------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +------------------------------------+-------------+ | character_set_client | utf8mb4 | | character_set_connection | utf8mb4 | | character_set_database | utf8mb4 | | character_set_filesystem | binary | | character_set_results | utf8mb4 | | character_set_server | utf8mb4 | | character_set_system | utf8 | +------------------------------------+-------------+ 7 rows in set (0.00 sec) Old server: mysql> SHOW SESSION VARIABLES LIKE 'character\_set\_%'; +------------------------------------+----------+ | Variable_name | Value | +------------------------------------+----------+ | character_set_client | latin1 | | character_set_connection | latin1| | character_set_database | utf8 | | character_set_filesystem | binary| | character_set_results | latin1 | | character_set_server | latin1 | | character_set_system | utf8 | +------------------------------------+---------+ 7 rows in set (0.00 sec) Also is there a way for the client to specify the correct settings for reading/writing BLOBS on a per connection basis as it might not always be possible to alter the server? Thanks

[Maria-discuss] account locking?
by Felipe Gasper 05 Nov '18

05 Nov '18

Hello, Does the MariaDB development team intend to add account locking? I don’t see it in the 10.4 roadmap. MySQL added this in 5.7.6. Previously we’d accomplished this by reversing the password hash; for our servers that run MariaDB it would be great to be able to use the same facility. Thank you! -Felipe Gasper

[Maria-discuss] wsrep_node_incoming_address not honoured?
by George Diamantopoulos 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

Hello all, I've setup a galera cluster with 3 nodes, and I believe that wsrep_node_incoming_address is not honoured when set in the configuration. More specifically, the setting persists in mariadb: +-----------------------------+---------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +-----------------------------+---------------+ | bind_address | 172.30.20.1 | | wsrep_node_address | 172.30.20.129 | | wsrep_node_incoming_address | 172.30.20.129 | | wsrep_sst_receive_address | 172.30.20.129 | +-----------------------------+---------------+ But the process listens on all interfaces instead: root@gal0-cn1:~# netstat -plunt | grep mysql tcp 0 0 172.30.20.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 17229/mysqld tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:4567 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 17229/mysqld Is this expected behaviour? Shouldn't mysqld only listen on 172.30.20.129:4567, as configured? Thanks! BR, George
