just want to add that I can fully reproduce this bug on my servers I tried it on 3 differents machines (different hardware). (including em64t and amd64) basically it makes mysql 5.0 unusable in production. I hope you will be able to fix it soon :) I am okay to test patches if you have some. btw, it's not 'GRANT' specific, I have a simple PHP application that does simple INSERT which locks up mysqld quite often.

Thank you for a problem report. Is this problem repeatable on non-SMP systems? With GRANTs instead of direct manipulation with db and user tables? And usual question: what threading library is used? Just to be sure.

I just rebooted my em64t test box in non-hyperthreading mode so I can test without SMP it seems to work a lot better. I just loaded+dropped the horde db 5 times without any glitches. this machine is running a 2.6.15, and mysqld is linked against libpthread (I don't really know how to tell which threading library it's using ...) (it's Debian's mysql-server-5.0 backport to sarge-amd64) to not confuse you : I am the one who reported the problem to Debian's maintainer, so that's why I am answering here now :) thanks

after some discussion with other debian developers, I was pointed to this bug : http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=8555 and to the Debian specific one. I have patched my libc6 since and it does not seem to lock up anymore, so I guess this is just the same bug. I guess that bug can be closed but maybe Chritian has more comments to do. thanks Cheers, Mik

I had a similar problem on my machines: a web site running joomla was hanging with too many users. After a lot of (unuseful) test I migrated on a 32bit machine running the same version of mysql (5.0.18-4) and the problem was the same. There was hundreds of "sleeping" threads on mysql. I had to downgrade to mysql 4.1 to solve the problem. HTH, Alex

Can reproduce this on Linux 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8 x86_64 (Debian/AMD64 3.0 stable). GRANT hangs mysqld completely (quite often, but not always); in this case, you can't connect to the daemon, i.e. even shutdown doesn't work and I have to SIGKILL all mysqld processes. Sometimes the INSERT command locks up mysqld, but then I can connect at least and send "SHOW PROCESSLIST" which shows up a long list of commands in the "Locked" state (the first is "querying"). I'm using MySQL-5.0.22-Debian_1bpo1-log from the backports. This is a big problem for me because it makes MySQL 5.0 unusable for me. I need >= 5.0 because I need UTF-8 and other features which are only available for 5.0 and newer. I used MySQL 5.0.21 on a FreeBSD machine (FreeBSD/5.3-RELEASE-p29 i386) before where everything worked perfectly! Then I had to migrate to another machine and here MySQL makes problems ... :/

For me mysqld 5.0.27 hangs sometimes - unfortunately I can't check if this happens on grant command because when it hangs I can't even connect to it - connection hangs. Even kill -TERM doesn't work. I need to use -9. Not sure if these bugs are related but it's quite possible (grant commands are issued quite often from admin panel). This is on linux 2.6.16.27 smp x86_64.
