Description:
Running mysqlslap using "--auto-generate-sql-guid-primary" will fail on mysql 5.7 with stricter settings for SQL_MODE.

Runing with default values you get error:
ted@ted-PORTEGE-Z30-A:~/lek$ mysqlslap -S/home/ted/lek/my.sock -uroot -proot --auto-generate-sql          --auto-generate-sql-guid-primary --auto-generate-sql-secondary-indexes=2          --auto-generate-sql-write-number=10000 --auto-generate-sql-execute-number=300000 -i10
mysqlslap: Cannot run query INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (uuid(),uuid(),uuid(),1804289383,'mxvtvmC9127qJNm06sGB8R92q2j7vTiiITRDGXM9ZLzkdekbWtmXKwZ2qG1llkRw5m9DHOFilEREk3q7oce8O3BEJC0woJsm6uzFAEynLH2xCsw1KQ1lT4zg9rdxBL') ERROR : Data too long for column 'id' at row 1

Reason is column id is not large enough for uuid() value:
mysql> show create table t1;                                                                                                                                                                                  
| t1    | CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `id` varchar(32) NOT NULL,
  `id0` varchar(32) DEFAULT NULL,
  `id1` varchar(32) DEFAULT NULL,

mysql> SELECT LENGTH(uuid());                                                                                                                                                                                    +----------------+
| LENGTH(uuid()) |
+----------------+
|             36 |
+----------------+
1 row in set (0,00 sec)

Setting SQL_MODE to '' we silently ignore this truncation. 

How to repeat:
Follow steps above.

Suggested fix:
Increase size of column in mysqlslap.t1 table to at least varchar(36)

Hi Ted,

Thank you for the report.
Could you please confirm the exact 5.7 build you are using for tests? Imho, this issue was fixed in 5.7.8 post Bug #55265. Also, this can be confirmed from schema inspection in 5.7.11:

For 5.6, issue still exists as noted in Bug #80329
