Re: [Maria-discuss] Performance tuning sought for MariaDB

Innodb buffer pool should be probably around 10-20GB if you're going to use just one single innodb table. Currently you are probably killing mariadb with these 1.3k threads. First you can try to limit threads running simultaneusly to 5-30 because you're not goint to have any performance benefit from going above certain (rather low) point, you'll only produce mutex contention so the server will became overloaded with thread coordination code rather than doing any real work. 50 threads would be probably too much already, and you have 20 times that ;) Not sure if you're doing single op per transaction but without changes to code you probably won't be able to make this app run considerably faster anyway. Because small ops, like couter increment will never be fast in SQL so you'll need some intermediate "aggregation" step to issue as few sql commands and as few transactions as possible. In your C app you probably need to preprocess and aggregate the data. You take eg. 100k operations and process them in memory. So eg. insert, modify and set on same PK would became just single set. Then you can further divide these 100k operations into 1k-ops transactions. At the end you can parallelize by starting many instances of the application and spreading the keys over using CRC32. So probably what you'll need to do is: 1. aggregate as many operations as possible 2. divide to N chunks 3. read all affected keys for chunk X in single query 4. modify data in memory 5. output a transaction 6. goto 3 untill all chunks are done Dnia 7 października 2019 18:17 JCA <1.41421(a)gmail.com> napisał(a): I am running MariaDB 10.0.34 on a Slackware 14.2 system. I have a C application that interacts with MariaDB in the following way: 1. Read data from a FIFO. 2. Insert the data into a table in a MariaDB database, if absent, or modify it according to certain specific criteria otherwise. This works as expected. The problem that I have is that data are being written to the FIFO at a fast rate. In order to be able to keep up, at any given time my application reads the data available at the FIFO, and spawns a thread to process the chunk of data just read. It is in this thread that all the database interaction takes place. In order to deal with this, I have the following entries in my /etc/my.cnf file: # this is read by the standalone daemon and embedded servers [server] # this is only for the mysqld standalone daemon [mysqld] # thread_handling=pool-of-thread # log=/var/log/mysqld.log # this is only for embedded server [embedded] # This group is only read by MariaDB servers, not by MySQL. # If you use the same .cnf file for MySQL and MariaDB, # you can put MariaDB-only options here [mariadb] # log=/var/log/mysqld.log general_log_file = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.log # general_log = 1 # transaction-isolation = READ-COMMITTED # key_buffer = 1280M # 128MB for every 1GB of RAM # sort_buffer_size = 1M # 1MB for every 1GB of RAM # read_buffer_size = 1M # 1MB for every 1GB of RAM # read_rnd_buffer_size = 1M # 1MB for every 1GB of RAM # thread_concurrency = 24 # Based on the number of CPUs # so make it CPU*2 # thread-handling=pool-of-thread # innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit != 1 # open_files_limit = 50000 thread-handling=pool-of-thread max_connections = 1000 table_open_cache = 800 query_cache_type = 0 innodb_buffer_pool_size = 512M innodb_buffer_pool_instances = 10 innodb_adaptive_hash_index_par = 20 innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 5000 With this, my application can keep up with the FIFO writer, but - depending on the circumstances - my database can't. As I am writing this, there are over 1300 threads connected to my database; any command that I issue at the mysql CLI takes over one minute to return. I am keeping track on how long each thread takes to complete, and that is of the order of hundreds of seconds - sometimes thousands. Each thread is itself simple, in that it just issues a couple of simple MariaDB commands. Currently my table consists of 1.6 million entries, and growing - on this basis, I expect that things will get only worse. Each entry,however, will never require more than a couple of hundred bytes of storage. The operations that can be undertaken on entries are insertion, deletion and modification, the latter being straightforward - like e.g. incrementing a counter or replacing a short string. My system has 24 GB of RAM and 12 cores. Occasionally all the cores are fully busy with MariaDB activity, but most of the time barely one or two are. I am a newbie when it comes to interacting with MariaDB - please, bear with me. I know I must use a single database and a single table. I also know - because of the nature of the data that are being written to the FIFO - that the probability for two different threads to be operating on the same entry in the table at the same time is negligible - i.e. for all practical purposes, that will not happen. What I need is advice on how to configure my instance of MariaDB to perform optimally in the scenario above. In particular, I would like for it to make better use of all the cores available - in essence, to parallelize the database operations as much as possible. Feedback from the experts will be much appreciated. ______________________________ Mailing list: launchpad.net launchpad.net Post to : maria-discuss(a)lists.launchpad.

[Maria-discuss] Benchmarking MariaDB/InnoDB using TATP - Writers slow down readers?
by Aarati K 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

I'm benchmarking MariaDB 10.4 with TATP benchmark. The InnoDB config file has the following parameters set: [mysqld] innodb_data_home_dir=/usr/local/mysql/data innodb_undo_directory=/usr/local/mysql/data innodb_undo_log_truncate=1 innodb_undo_tablespaces=3 innodb_flush_method=O_DIRECT innodb_page_size=65536 When I run just the read-mix of TATP (i.e, the read queries alone), I get a result as follows: I 2019-10-06 16:06:06 STATISTICS 90% response time (us), by transaction I 2019-10-06 16:06:06 STATISTICS GET_SUBSCRIBER_DATA: 744 I 2019-10-06 16:06:06 STATISTICS GET_NEW_DESTINATION: 1323 I 2019-10-06 16:06:06 STATISTICS GET_ACCESS_DATA: 738 I 2019-10-06 16:06:06 CONTROL MQTh for test run is 6772 Focusing on the first query, GET_SUBSCRIBER_DATA, it has a 90% response time of 744us. However, when I run the R90/W10 mix (i.e, 90% read requests, 10% write requests), the result is as follows: I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS 90% response time (us), by transaction I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS GET_SUBSCRIBER_DATA: 3771 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS GET_NEW_DESTINATION: 4712 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS GET_ACCESS_DATA: 3687 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS UPDATE_SUBSCRIBER_DATA: 18801 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS UPDATE_LOCATION: 18831 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS INSERT_CALL_FORWARDING: 20017 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 STATISTICS DELETE_CALL_FORWARDING: 19027 I 2019-10-07 01:23:27 CONTROL MQTh for test run is 1464 The response time of GET_SUBSCRIBER_DATA is 3771 us, which is much slower. Queries are generated probabilistically, and keys are chosen uniformly at random. However, what I don't understand is, how are the writers slowing down the readers by that much, especially when MariaDB/InnoDB has *row-level locking*, to avoid this issue of writers blocking readers. Are there any configuration parameters that need to be tweaked?

[Maria-discuss] fsync alternative
by Jure Sah 27 Sep '19

27 Sep '19

Hi, It would appear that on a typical webserver, the majority of disk i/o belongs to the MariaDB database process. It would appear it's mostly waiting on fsync(), which to my understanding is executed at least once per commit. I understand that this is extensively researched in the documentation and it has to do with the recovery of data in case of an unexpected server reboot. The thing is, this has many performance issues because it caps database performance at whatever the speed of the underlying physical storage is, even if the changed data fits into the available RAM. It also results in the circumstance where if anything is impacting performance of the storage system on the server, this will break MariaDB and cause the service to go offline (time out), even if there is sufficient RAM in the machine to continue operating as normal from page cache. In a typical scenario you have a website which is writing things like session and page cache data which expires within an hour and would be no great loss if missing from a backup. Especially if the volume of the missing data would be 30 seconds (kernel default for committing dirty pages to disk) and mind you this setting is configurable. Temporary tables cannot be used in this case, because they are deleted as soon as the session ends, which is too soon. Is there a different solution that could be used here? I've also noticed in the documentation that the options to control fsync usage are even more limited than in the MySQL server. They are also very strongly argued against. Considering the point that InnoDB is considered to be in an inconsistent state in any event, so long as the server is not cleanly stopped, is there really justification for such strong opposition here? Disabling fsync boosts performance of a typical MySQL server by something like a factor of 3. LP, Jure

[Maria-discuss] Query failure after minor upgrade 10.1.38 to 10.1.41
by Benoit Plessis 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Hi Guys, We are experiencing a break in backward compatibility with the lastest 10.1 release which got publied on the debian/stretch release. Queries that worked before suddenly spit errors about unknown column. It seems to be related to the use of "inner join" without on/using clause and left join and 'extra table': SELECT * FROM t1, t2 INNER JOIN t3 LEFT JOIN t4 ON t4.id = t3.id_t5 WHERE t3.id = t2.id_t3 AND t1.id = X will give: ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 't1.id' in 'where clause' Adding parenthesis around the join: SELECT * FROM t1, ( t2 INNER JOIN t3 LEFT JOIN t4 ON t4.id = t3.id_t5 ) WHERE t3.id = t2.id_t3 AND t1.id = X or adding an "on" clause on the inner join seem to fix the issue SELECT * FROM t1, t2 INNER JOIN ON t3.id = t2.id_t3 t3 LEFT JOIN t4 ON t4.id = t3.id_t5 WHERE t1.id = X Weirdly enough it's impossible to have a Left join without on/using clause, while the parser let us write an inner join without. I cannot find a related note in the changelogs ..

[Maria-discuss] Εxponentially growing Innodb_row_lock_time on “master” node of MariaDB 10.3 Galera cluster
by George Diamantopoulos 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Hello all, I originally posted this on serverfault, but the question hasn't gained much traction there yet. I've been trying to investigate issues with an application failing, and I have reason to believe that the culprit lies somewhere in the database backend. To this end, I started collecting metrics from the backend MariaDB Galera cluster (currently running on MariaDB version 10.3.16), hoping that the failures would reflect on the metrics collected. Indeed, about 12 hours before the application started failing spectacularly, the values reported by the 'Master' node (i.e. the node to which the application directs the writes) for Innodb_row_lock_time started growing at a rate never recorded before. I'm not sure the failures are linked to this metric, but it's the only trend I've been able to notice which correlates to the failures. Here's a link to a graph demonstrating this fact over the week preceding the last failure: Innodb_row_lock_time change per minute <https://i.stack.imgur.com/H4xwA.png> Note that the graph displays change, not the current value of the metric. MariaDB servers are polled every 90 seconds and datapoints in the graph refer to change per minute. The big drop near the end of the graph indicates the time when the MariaDB service was restarted on the 'Master' node. My question is how to further investigate this symptom and possibly identify the culprit queries or operation. I also log the output of InnoDB Monitor and slow queries in logfiles, but I haven't been able to find anything out of the ordinary during the period when wait_time was growing rapidly (although I'm no DB expert). Is there any other logging functionality I can enable to provide more information on this? And if InnoDB Monitor Output should provide the information needed, what should I be looking for exactly? What kind of operation could lead to rows being locked for so long, considering the sudden manifestation of the issue? Is there any way of knowing which rows were locked and whether it was a read or write lock? Lastly, is there any reason to think this could be attributed to a MariaDB bug instead of the applications misbehaving in any way? Thank you in advance, George

[Maria-discuss] Slave corruption on myrocks update
by Jonas Krauss 19 Sep '19

19 Sep '19

Hi all, I am trying to upgrade MariaDB to a more recent version which includes https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-19795 and thus a newer rocksdb version. We are running a mixed database of innodb and rocksdb tables. We are currently using 10.2.21-MariaDB-10.2.21+maria~stretch-log / mariadb.org binary distribution (on the master). The reported rocksdb version is 5.14.0, compile date Dec 30 2018. I have set up a new slave with the database hard-copied from the master's filesystem (with mariabackup) and MariaDB versions 10.4.7 / 10.3.17 and 10.2.26. As a first thing before replication starts I of course run mysql_upgrade, which goes through just fine. Once the replication catches up (row-based), it eventually hits some kind of wall and rocksdb detects a checksum mismatch during compaction, e.g.: 2019/09/19-16:15:31.512013 7f7ae33ff700 [WARN] [db_impl/db_impl_compaction_flush.cc:2726] Compaction error: Corruption: block checksum mismatch: expected 1973625368, got 2324967102 in /data/mysql/rocksdb/180583.sst offset 153437494 size 6567907 MariaDB then crashes with the dreaded exit code 6 (see log below). The database is unusable afterwards and does not start up anymore. The same procedure for setting up a slave and replicating works fine when staying at 10.2.21. I suspect there might be an incompatibility between rocksdb 5.14.0 and 6.2.0 (version used in the newer MariaDBs). However, I have read through the changelog at https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/releases and have found no clear candidate for that. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated. I can also provide more logs on request.

Hi Everyone, just some quick follow up on this topic about MyRocks i started. It seems that there are some issues with debian9 and cfq scheduler when using rocks. Tested this on VM, not sure how virtualization is affecting this. Rocks is easily able to saturate 3 cpu cores with I/O wait and I/O throughput is very low in this config, even on fast SSD. This gets much better after switching to noop/deadline and best is to switch to Debian10 with mq-deadline. Then I/O wait drops to 0% and performance improves a lot.

Hi Guys, @Jonas thanks for sharing the link. I was just using default config which cames with mariadb 10..4 plus i increased cache size to 6GB, so that's the only option which is in the file: plugin-load-add=ha_rocksdb.so rocksdb_block_cache_size=61784 Basically i have just started trying it, so not very familiar with it and for my tests i just waited for all the background tasks for rocks to end so the server load is 0. No bloom filter... just simple SELECT sum(x) from y SELECT sum(x) from y WHERE index in Z then did 2 same queries to make sure all blocks are in the cache on some 100 million rows table. Basically what surprised me the most is that innodb was able to do around 180mb/s reads on this vm and it wasn't putting load on IO (1-2% WA on samsung 850 PRO), with rocks i had around 20mb/s and over 50% cpu time spent in i/o wait, so maybe i'll try debian 10 and totally fresh install. Might be that something is "broken" on debian9... @ Reinis ah really bad news, hopefully it won't be removed soon, it is so great I was actually hoping for it to become new innodb especially that its characteristics seems to be much more in tune with new hardware (many cpu cores, a lot of ram, ssd storage) than innodb and internally it seems to be "better b tree" so it's similar as well.

[Maria-discuss] Json validation of unicode escaped strings
by manoj 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

I am trying to insert json data in to a table with json check constraint. The non-ascii characters are unicode escaped. This fails in cases where the string in the json data has unicode points in non-BMP plane, e.g U+1F449. Error: ERROR 4025 (23000): CONSTRAINT `js` failed for `t`.`t` The same json works if the unicode characters are encoded in utf-8 and not escaped. I think I can confirm that this is a json validation error with json_valid. MariaDB [t]> show create table t; +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Table | Create Table | +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | t | CREATE TABLE `t` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `js` longtext CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_bin DEFAULT NULL CHECK (json_valid(`js`)), PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=19 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 | +-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) MariaDB [t]> select json_valid('{"test": "\\ud83d\\ude0b"}'); +------------------------------------------+ | json_valid('{"test": "\\ud83d\\udc49"}') | +------------------------------------------+ | 0 | +------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) This is on Maria 10.3 MariaDB [t]> select version(); +----------------+ | version() | +----------------+ | 10.3.8-MariaDB | +----------------+ So, my questions, are unicode escaped strings in json supported? Is this a bug or a limitation? I have searched for this issue and have failed to come up with anything. Thanks, Manoj

Hi Everyone, i got recently interested in rocks and have a couple of questions if anyone else is doing/done some migrations to this engine: 1. Noticed that compared to toku - I/O overhead for range SELECT's with cold caches is much higher, especially on vmware I/O utilization (WAit) goes over 50% of available CPU on standard cfq scheduler and 4 cores. Changing it to noop helps and utilization drops around tenfold to 5-10%. It doesn't matter if we're doing full table scan or range scan with index. Basically i thought for LSM lists there'll be almost no IOPs and I/O utilization will be non-existing because all you need to do is reading a long, continuous block on disk (we're using SSDs). Any reason for that or am i doing something incorrectly? (default config + 6gb rocks key cache) Any reason it's working so badly with cfq and much better with noop? 2. Now with keys 100% cached - rocks is still around 2-3 times slower than toku for range scans, and even considerably slower than innodb. From what i understand keycache for rocks stores uncompressed keys, so is there some performance issue eg. with copying data from global keycache to local storage and is it going to be fixed or that's something related to how rocks works internally and there's no way of making it work better in the future? 3. In general it was a huge surprise that toku which is (at least it seems) so complicated to implement, and is based on very complex variation of b tree is having so much better read performance and so much better i/o characteristics... than "simple" (from what i understand) sorted list, which could be probably just read in bulk like a simple log file... 4.

Re: [Maria-discuss] fsync alternative
by pslawek83 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Hi Jure, maybe you can try using toku engine. I noticed that with large keycaches syncing it to disk can sometimes take up to a minute for myisam tables. Also innodb is generally heavy on I/O. Toku on the other hand is heavier on CPU/memory but seems very light on I/O (from my experience), so maybe that would help... Rocksdb should be light on random I/O access as it's using LSM, haven't used it in production yet and not sure how mature it is but may work... You can try to disable binlogs/fsync almost altogether if you don't care about data consistency, it's very unrecommended. And if you're using replication skip the 3'rd line because it'll break it, if you're not using replication remove _xxx. SET GLOBAL innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 0; SET GLOBAL sync_binlog = 0; SET GLOBAL log_bin_xxx = 0; But i believe SAN is really the issue. Benchmark this SAN (throughput / iops)... if not conclusive try running from local SSD on raid10 or something similar... raid5/6 works horribly with SSDs and databases in general due to trim support and write amplification (not sure what raid you're using)... www.percona.com www.percona.com www.percona.com www.percona.com For kernel's pagecache/fsync comment, i think it's working as expected and you're missing write-behind not OS file cache... I guess without fsync it'd be totally impossible to have the data in consistent state after a crash, so you could not only loose couple of second's worth of data but whole table, as writes could be postponed and re-ordered, especially on SSDs... So for example if you'd do copy-on-write to make changes atomic, the pointer to data block could be written before the data block is (fully) there on disk and you'd get a structure pointing to not-existing or random data. To be sure you're having anything which is making sense in your files you'd need to 1. write your data 2. ensure it's on the device in full (fsync) 3. atomically change the data pointer from OLD to NEW data, which is probably using assumption that block-aligned writes below 512b should be atomic, or some log-like structure Maria is probably doing it little differently, but concept is for sure similar if you don't want your software to be bound to some single, specific, probably very expensive and propertialy mix of software and hardware which can support some basic atomic I/O. For IO over network... actually had a huge issues even with running simple readonly sqlite over network-attached I/O via NFS. I believe such kind of setup when your throughput is high will at least need dedicated 10Gbps network link. And still SAN/NAS can have "normal" throughput on 10Gb, but latency will probably be much higher (so slower fsync's). I'd try to move this SQL server outside of VM and to local storage.

[Maria-discuss] Thread State: Unlocking tables
by mariadb＠biblestuph.com 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

Can someone fill me in as to what's happening behind the scenes when a thread has the state "Unlocking tables?" I looked here but did not see it listed: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/general-thread-states/ Specifically, I sometimes see threads spending a lot of time in this state, and am looking to do some troubleshooting as to the cause of the delay. I.E., what could cause a thread to be delayed while in that state. They're (currently) MyISAM tables if it makes a difference. Thanks! Dan

[Maria-discuss] stability of 10.4.7
by Tom Ryan 07 Sep '19

07 Sep '19

We had been using 10.2.x for some time in a galera config with wonderful stability. A disk issue caused us to temporarily have to utilize a single 10.3.x instance (again with no stability issues). After we resolved our disk issue, we decided to move to 10.4.7 (since it was the second stable version) and listed on the website as the "stable version". Unfortunately, nodes in the cluster crash just about everyday. one node usually fails and then another node drops, with errors like 190906 14:37:59 [ERROR] mysqld got signal 11 ; Sep 6 14:37:59 node-2 mysqld[1846]: This could be because you hit a bug.

[Maria-discuss] 'Reverse Replication" Rollback Strategy
by Webert de Souza Lima 04 Sep '19

04 Sep '19

Hello, I'm currently working on migrating a Galera 10.3 cluster (A) to Amazon RDS. (B) In order to minimize impacts and downtime, the plan is to have a standard MySQL Slave on RDS (B) to sync data, then do the switch to it and stop the replication A->B. The main concern is a catastrophic scenario on B where a rollback to A is needed. How to bring back only new data that now sits on B to the old cluster A? One approach I saw is to, before switching applications to the new server, stop the replication A->B and enable replication B->A. This is my question here. Before the switch, the data will be the same on A and B but B will not be part of the cluster A, so things like a binlog position change. Is it possible to enable this opposite replication B->A without having to extract a whole dump of B and restoring it on A ? Thanks Regards, Webert Lima *Berlin, Germany* *IRC NICK - WebertRLZ*

[Maria-discuss] mariadb + FIPS
by Captain Wiggum 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Hi All, I have searched the archives and forums and cannot find an answer to this question. Does mariadb support FIPS, and if so, how or where is a document about this. I use mariadb 10.3.17 with OpenSSL 1.0.2 with FIPS enabled, all built from source. In FIPS mode, SHA1 is disallowed by openssl, as required by FIPS. However, when I search the mariadb code, SHA1 is used in many places. How can I update mariadb to use sha256, without a ton of recoding? Any tips appreciated. --Capt

[Maria-discuss] Connector/C Bulk Select With Embedded Server
by Seth Shelnutt 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

Hello All, I am working on a project where I am using an embedded MariaDB server to issue select queries. I'm currently looking for the most efficient way to get the result set from a query using the C Connector with the embedded server. Ideally I'd like to do a bulk column wise fetch of the results. I have seen the example [1] for bulk column wise prepared statements but this appears only to be for insert/update/delete operations and not select/mysql_stmt_bind_results. The column wise insert format is almost exactly what I was hoping for, just need it for selects. I glanced at the code path for bulk operations and it doesn't look to cover selects. I also tested setting the STMT_ATTR_ARRAY_SIZE to no effect. Is there an efficient way to get the results sets in columnar format or is fetching each row one at a time the best method? Thank you, Seth [1] https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/bulk-insert-column-wise-binding/

[Maria-discuss] MariaDB - 10.1.41 slave replication stopped after its upgrade
by ViK aPi 03 Aug '19

03 Aug '19

Hello, After the recent MariaDB 10.1.41 update which happened on 01/Aug/2019, few of our slaves have stopped syncing relay logs from master which is on 10.1.40. Slaves which got automatically updated to 10.1.41 is now having the following status. Slave IO thread is in Preparing state and the logs are not getting written. I did a reset slave and initiated a change master with the positions again but still getting the same. The other slave servers which is in MariaDB 10.1.40, 10.1.33 etc are running as normal.

[Maria-discuss] Question on ALTER USER
by Sean T Shen 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

Hi, experts I don't really know where to ask this question in. And my question is with MariaDB....I would appreciate if somebody with a clear eye can quickly answer my question....appreciate it very much. My MariaDb is of this version: '10.1.38-MariaDB-0+deb9u1' My OS where mariadb is running is this: 'Linux d-bia-mysql-use1c-1 4.9.0-9-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.168-1+deb9u4 (2019-07-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux' I just want to do this ALTER USER 'user1'@'localhost' WITH MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 0; And I am getting syntax error: Error Code: 1064. You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'USER 'user1'@'localhost' WITH MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 0' at line 1 What did I do wrong? Thanks

[Maria-discuss] On-premise Encryption key-rotation solution for MDB? Works with Hashicorp Vault?
by PGNet Dev 26 Jul '19

26 Jul '19

I'm working on Encryption at Rest in MDB 10.4, looking for an on-premise key rotation solution. Back in 2016, there was a discussion on ML, https://lists.launchpad.net/maria-discuss/msg05031.html Another possibility would be to add key rotation support to the file_key_management plugin. It is easier than it sounds - this plugin is quite simple. Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB which referenced Vault as MariaDB encryption plugin -- alternative to AWS? https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/issues/4041 AFAICT, there's still no key rotation support of any kind in MariaDB's file_management plugin. OTOH, it seems that Percona has a plugin https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.7/management/data_at_rest_encr… that works with Hashicorp Vault's KV (old) v1 engine, KV Secrets Engine - Version 1 https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/secrets/kv/kv-v1.html There's also a v2, KV Secrets Engine - Version 2 https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/secrets/kv/kv-v2.html and, encryption with rotation can be deployed as a service Encryption as a Service: Transit Secrets Engine https://learn.hashicorp.com/vault/encryption-as-a-service/eaas-transit but I haven't found examples of either of the latter two options working with Percona. Is there a modern/current key-rotation solution for MDB other than AWS? Similar in capability to Percona's, and preferably, self-hosted/on-premise?

[Maria-discuss] System lock thread state
by mariadb＠biblestuph.com 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

On a system with skip-external-locking = ON, why would I ever see a thread state of "System lock" on a MyISAM table? This documentation: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/general-thread-states/ suggests that "... MyISAM storage engine uses file-based locks. However, MyISAM's external locks are disabled by default ...", which makes me think I shouldn't see them. Last night at one point I had several threads stacked up in "System lock" status and trying to get to the bottom of it. It's 10.3.14, if it makes a difference. Thanks, Dan

[Maria-discuss] Since MariaDB 10.1 aggregate functions return different field type for columns with date values

Hi all, If I execute the following query on MariaDB 10.1 or later, the result contains a column with a datetime field type (MYSQL_TYPE_DATETIME): SELECT MIN(NOW()) AS t On older versions or any version of MySQL this column is a text type (MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING). https://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/mysql-server/latest/field__types_8h.html Is there a possibility to use the old behavior in newer version?

Hi all, I've been having some issues attempting to cross compile MariaDB 10.4.6 for ARMv5. I always get to a certain point, and it tries to compile storage/mroonga/vendor/groonga/lib/CMakeFiles/libgroonga.dir/ts/ts_util.c.o. This hangs for a long time, and eventually I get two notes about the variable size tracking limit being exceeded, and then the build fails with no clear explanation: [ 38%] Building C object storage/mroonga/vendor/groonga/lib/CMakeFiles/libgroonga.dir/ts/ts_util.c.o /home/wmt/Downloads/mariadb-10.4.6/storage/mroonga/vendor/groonga/lib/expr.c: In function 'grn_expr_exec': /home/wmt/Downloads/mariadb-10.4.6/storage/mroonga/vendor/groonga/lib/expr.c:2620:1: note: variable tracking size limit exceeded with -fvar-tracking-assignments, retrying without /home/wmt/Downloads/mariadb-10.4.6/storage/mroonga/vendor/groonga/lib/expr.c:2620:1: note: variable tracking size limit exceeded Linking CXX static library libgroonga.a [ 38%] Built target libgroonga make: *** [all] Error 2 Does anyone have any idea why?

[Maria-discuss] Rolling upgrade to Galera 10.4 not working

Hello, I'm trying to do a rolling upgrade of a MariaDB 10.3 Galera cluster to to 10.4, following the instructions here <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/upgrading-from-mariadb-103-to-mariadb-104…>.

I'm not familiar enough with how encoding works to fully understand what the problem is. This is a fedora29 system with mariadb-10.3.12 and joomla-3.9. Apparently the '\xD6' is an O with an umlaut in "Sebastian �sterlund". I read something about utf8 not being able to handle 4-char, but I don't fully understand. I found the following reference online which talks about changing the encoding type from utf8 to utf8mb4, but the tables all appear to already be using that encoding: > SHOW VARIABLES WHERE Variable_name LIKE 'character\_set\_%' OR Variable_name LIKE 'collation%'; +--------------------------+--------------------+ | 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 | | collation_connection | utf8mb4_unicode_ci | | collation_database | utf8mb4_unicode_ci | | collation_server | utf8mb4_unicode_ci | +--------------------------+--------------------+ execute failed: Incorrect string value: '\xD6sterl...' with mariadb and perl DBD a novice perl programmer I'm not sure it's helpful, but this is the insert statement I'm using in my perl code: my $sql = <<EOF; INSERT INTO xuxgc_content (title, alias, introtext, `fulltext`, state, catid, created, created_by, created_by_alias, modified, modified_by, checked_out, checked_out_time, publish_up, publish_down, images, urls, attribs, version, ordering, metakey, metadesc, metadata, access, hits, language) VALUES ($title, "$title_alias", $introText, $fullText, $state, $catid, $created, $created_by, $created_by_alias, $modified, $modified_by, $checked_out, $checked_out_time, $publish_up, $publish_down, $images, $urls, $attribs, $version, $ordering, $metakey, $metadesc, $metadata, $access, $hits, $language); EOF my $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql); $sth->execute(); db_disconnect($dbh); I don't recall having this problem in the past, and this script has been in use for quite a while. What am I doing wrong?

[Maria-discuss] pam authentication not working after few hours
by Fabrizio Gerardi 25 Jun '19

25 Jun '19

Hi everyone, I have problems with mariadb 10.3.15 in a centos 7 environment. I configured mariadb to authenticate users via pam module while the system is a member of an active directory domain. Everything works fine except that authentication process stops working after few hours. Please note that only users authenticated via pam are facing this issue. Local users keep authenticating... The moment I restart mariadb service everything works fine again. Would you please confirm whether this issue is somewhat related with others I read will be fixed in next release (10.3.16) or not? Thank you, Fabrizio

[Maria-discuss] join_buffer_size > 2 MiB causes query to hang
by Felipe Gasper 16 May '19

16 May '19

Hello, The following query takes 6 minutes to complete … SELECT DISTINCT user FROM mysql.db WHERE BINARY db IN ( SELECT DISTINCT db FROM mysql.db WHERE BINARY user=? ) … when I have a join_buffer_size over 2,048 KiB. The effect is pretty remarkable: if I set the buffer size to 2,048 KiB, the query finishes in about 0.1 seconds, but with the buffer size at 2,049 KiB it takes several minutes. The long query time doesn’t happen in MySQL 5.7, but we see it in MariaDB 10.1 and 10.2. Is this a known issue? Thank you! -Felipe Gasper Mississauga, Ontario

[Maria-discuss] New backup procedure plan
by Tom Worster 10 May '19

10 May '19

Hi, 3 MariaDB servers are running Galera on three bare-metal machines adjacent to each other in a data center rack. Two of them handle traffic from a web app while the third machine has other duties including backups. A recent upgrade in the web app completely changed its schema. Previously there were many databases (schemas), each with a modest volume of data, and soon all that data will be in one database. The current backup procedure mysqldumps each schema every hour on the third machine. Then a geographically distant host copies those files out and stores them in a rotating series. I'm thinking of changing this because I don't really like how the Galera rx queue on the third machine climbs for two minutes every hour. The idea I want to check with y'all is: Every hour on that third machine 1. Shutdown mysqld and wait for it to exit 2. Snapshot its datadir using BTRFS 3. Restart that mysqld 4. Start an LXC container that - mounts the snapshot read-only and - starts its own mysqld with innodb_read_only 5. Run mysqldump in the LXC container 6. Stop the container, which shuts down its mysqld 7. Then let the geographically distant host do its thing Pros - Keep using the existing system for remote copies and rotating series of mysqld files. - We can add a script on the third machine to maintain a series of the BTRFS snapshots. - Confidence boost from having both physical backups on the cluster and remote logical backups Cons? or other thoughts?

[Maria-discuss] mariadb CVE
by mingming1 yu 05 May '19

05 May '19

Hi Expert, I have a question how to identify a mariadb CVE issue. For example, per description of http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-2481, it only refers the mysql version which are affected, but not mention any info about mariadb. So I continue to find some clue at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/security-vulnerabilities-in-oracle-mysql-…, but there is no item about CVE-2019-2481. And then I continue to search some clues at "Full List of CVEs fixed in MariaDB" part of https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/security/, and at this page there is a line as below: - CVE-2019-2481 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-2481>: MariaDB 5.5.37 <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-5537-release-notes/>, MariaDB 10.0.11 <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-10011-release-notes/> But I still don't know whether it affects Mariadb 10.3.13 or not. Thanks,

[Maria-discuss] strange "increment" values on primary keys
by Janis Heller 01 May '19

01 May '19

Hey community, I’m running Server version: 10.3.13-MariaDB-1:10.3.13+maria~bionic-log mariadb.org binary distribution of mariaDB (galera cluster). For local development we are not using galera, inside our local dev team we’re using Server version: 5.7.26-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (Ubuntu). After creating a table, I’ve started to run the database create commands, working fine, but when I run the database seeder, inserting some system config values to be used by the application itself later, I’ve got some strange behavior. See the table below: MariaDB [demo_database]> select * from system_configs WHERE 1=1; +----+------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | id | key | value | +----+------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 4 | admin_address | XXXXXX | | 7 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 10 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 13 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 16 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 19 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 22 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 25 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 28 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 31 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 34 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 37 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 40 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 43 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 46 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 49 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 52 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 55 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 58 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 61 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 64 | XXXXXX | 21600 | | 67 | XXXXXX | XXXXXX | | 70 | XXXXXX | https://some.domain.com | +----+------------------------------------+——————————————————————————————————+ Where XXXXXX stands for the key and XXXXXX for the value. The problem is the id itself. It’s somehow starting at 4 and is incremented by 3. As you may suspect now already, this will break our application, since some primary key ids are hard coded itself. Is there some way to „force“ maria DB to increment the IDs by „1“? I already this documentation entry: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/auto_increment/ <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/auto_increment/> But it doesn’t help, here’s what I tried: MariaDB [demo_database]> CREATE TABLE animals ( -> id MEDIUMINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, -> name CHAR(30) NOT NULL, -> PRIMARY KEY (id) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.014 sec) MariaDB [demo_database]> INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES -> ('dog'),('cat'),('penguin'), -> ('fox'),('whale'),('ostrich'); Query OK, 6 rows affected (0.003 sec) Records: 6 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 MariaDB [demo_database]> MariaDB [demo_database]> SELECT * FROM animals; +----+---------+ | id | name | +----+---------+ | 4 | dog | | 7 | cat | | 10 | penguin | | 13 | fox | | 16 | whale | | 19 | ostrich | +----+---------+ 6 rows in set (0.001 sec) MariaDB [demo_database]> ALTER TABLE animals AUTO_INCREMENT=20; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.011 sec) Records: 0 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 MariaDB [demo_database]> INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES ('aardvark'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.002 sec) MariaDB [demo_database]> INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES ('aardvark'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.003 sec) MariaDB [demo_database]> SELECT * FROM animals; +----+----------+ | id | name | +----+----------+ | 4 | dog | | 7 | cat | | 10 | penguin | | 13 | fox | | 16 | whale | | 19 | ostrich | | 25 | aardvark | | 28 | aardvark | +----+----------+ 8 rows in set (0.000 sec) MariaDB [demo_database]> exit Bye I’m unable to find a way to force mariaDB to use increment by 1, starting at 1, as our local mariaDB „development“ version does too. All the best from Germany; Janis
