Some variables:

srv_locks_unsafe_for_binlog	0x00000001	unsigned long
thd->lex->sql_command	SQLCOM_INSERT_SELECT	enum_sql_command
lock_type	TL_READ_NO_INSERT	thr_lock_type

How to repeat:
will upload a standalone testcase soon.

Suggested fix:

Shane,

is prebuilt->trx NULL?

prebuilt value i can't get from debugger, but assembler shows garbage pointer being dereferenced. debug build didn't crash yet..

This is actually the 5.0 and 4.1 bug that I already found in http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=21322 but forgot to fix then!
[20 Mar 2007 15:59] Heikki Tuuri
The fix is to add this code to the start of ::store_lock() also in 5.0 (and 4.1):

ha_innodb.cc:
"
        trx_t*          trx;

        /* Note that trx in this function is NOT necessarily prebuilt->trx
        because we call update_thd() later, in ::external_lock()! Failure to
        understand this caused a serious memory corruption bug in 5.1.11. */

        trx = check_trx_exists(ht, thd);
"

and use trx->isolation_level in subsequent code in ::store_lock().

Assigning this to Vasil.

This bug should be fixed in 5.0.
In 5.1 it has been fixed already.
A fix in 4.1 might make sense, if MySQL AB wants to apply the fix there.

Matthias,

if you do not use the Embedded Server Library, then it is enough to edit ha_innodb.cc in /sql.

You should add my code snippet to the start of ha_innobase::store_lock(), and replace the use of 'prebuilt->trx' by plain 'trx' in that function. There seems to be just 1 use of prebuilt->trx, if I looked carefully enough.

Regards,

Heikki
[20 Mar 2007 17:27] Heikki Tuuri
Oops, in 5.0, the code should be:

trx = check_trx_exists(thd);

i confirm the patch in 5.0 stops this specific crash. just tested it twice, successfully.
[21 Mar 2007 7:54] Matthias Albert
is this correct?

[21 Mar 2007 11:08] Matthias Albert
Shane, and my patch is correct? (see my attachment 4 comments before). I will build a new mysql rpm with 5.0.37 for me, if the attached patch is correct.

Regards,

 Matthias
[21 Mar 2007 14:03] Heikki Tuuri
Matthias,

your patch is otherwise correct, but you should make trx a local variable, not a parameter in the function call.

Regards,

Heikki

INSERT INTO ... SELECT caused a crash if
innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog was enabled.
[26 Jul 2007 18:01] MySQL Verification Team
crash is not limited to only insert .. select.  It can happen on most queries which modify table.

Patch applies to 5.0 only. Removing 5.1.21 changelog entry.

      Bug #27294: crash with innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog=1
      
      Back-port 5.0 fix to 4.1.  Fix Bug#27294 by using trx returned by
      check_trx_exists() instead of prebuilt->trx. This has been fixed in 5.1 in
      r782.

A backport of the fix from MySQL 5.0 has been added to MySQL 4.1.25.  (Despite what the comment from the bugs system says, it is fixed in 4.1.25, not 4.1.26.)
