Bug #72453 InnoDB Memcached Plugin "gets" command

Description:
I use "gets" command to get two values like this:
(The value of "AA" is "HELLO, HELLO", The value of "AA1" is "Hello, Hello")

shell> echo "gets @@aaa.AA @@aaa.AA1" | nc localhost 11211
VALUE @@aaa.AA 8 12 0
4Hello, Hell
VALUE @@aaa.AA1 8 12 1
Hello, Hello
END

The first value is always incorrect, but if I get single value like this:

shell> echo "gets @@aaa.AA" | nc localhost 11211
VALUE @@aaa.AA 8 12 0
HELLO, HELLO
END

The value is right.

How to repeat:
first:

shell> echo -e "add @@aaa.AA1 0 0 12\r\nHello, Hello\r\n" | nc localhost 11211
STORED

second:

shell> echo "gets @@aaa.AA @@aaa.AA1" | nc localhost 11211
VALUE @@aaa.AA 8 12 0
4Hello, Hell
VALUE @@aaa.AA1 8 12 1
Hello, Hello
END

Wrong Category? Should me Server: MemCached, not Cluster: MemCached?

Allen, can you please take a look?

Hello Xiao,

We block multi-gets for now. Just return an error message to client instead of returning wrong results.

Fixed as of the upcoming 5.6.21, 5.7.5 release, and here's the changelog entry:

Retrieval of multiple values with a single "get" command would return
incorrect results instead of an error message. The "InnoDB" "memcached"
plugin does not currently support retrieval of multiple values with a
single "get" command. 

Thank you for the bug report.

Bug#73014 was marked as a duplicate.

I modify the code, and it can get multiple values.

header file

c file

This problem is attributed to obtain the same "item*" pointer.

At method:
static inline char* process_get_command(conn *c, token_t *tokens, size_t ntokens, bool return_cas)

code lines:
if (ret == ENGINE_SUCCESS) {
   ret = settings.engine.v1->get(settings.engine.v0, c, &it, key, nkey, 0);
}

But why each value of key is right ?  key value is also get from "item* it" pointer

The pointer of key reference the same pointer of "item* it".

update the change

Thanks for your anlysis, Qixiu. 
Yes, we can solve this problem by modifying memcached layer. But since we don't want to break any current mechanism in memcached, so I think, the final solution would be that we provide fully support to handle get multi-values by one "get" or "gets" command in our InnoDB memcached plugin.

  We don't support multi-gets yet. This will be addressed in worklog 6650.
  We block multi-gets for now. Just return an error message to client
  instead of returning wrong results.
