问题描述

如下图,mysql_upgrade 过程中,执行 DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS performance_schema 一直在等待 metadata lock

问题排查

简单粗暴的方法

有一种简单的解决方法,把其他连接kill掉,释放 metadata lock

对于这个案例,占用元数据锁的是 Id = 107768,User = xx1 的连接

但是这种方法指标不治本,案例中占用元数据锁的连接,是一个agent服务建立的

mysql_upgrade也是程序执行,不能每次都手工kill连接,需要查明为什么占用锁

详细查明问题原因

据业务方反馈,agent服务和调用mysql_upgrade的代码和5.6也在用,没有出现问题。

怀疑是5.7引入的bug

根据上述现象,显然是agent占了metadata lock,大概率不是mysql的bug

为了说服业务方,我们继续排查是在等待什么锁

查询 performance_schema.metadata_locks

首先想到5.7的 performance_schema.metadata_locks ,很遗憾这张表里并没有记录

gdb 获取元数据锁信息

我们尝试使用 gdb 获取锁等待信息

ps aux | grep 端口号,找出mysqld进程号 pid,pstack pid > stack.log

在stack.log中搜索 acquire_lock(请求mdl锁的函数),可以看出是 thread 3 在请求元数据锁

跳转到  MDL_context::acquire_lock
acquire_lock 函数参数中有 MDL_request
MDL_request::MDL_key 中有详细的锁信息

p mdl_request->key

{m_length = 34, m_db_name_length = 18, m_ptr = "03performance_schema00global_status", ‘00‘ <repeats 353 times>, static m_namespace_to_wait_state_name = { {m_key = 0, 
  m_name = 0x130aa9b "Waiting for global read lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130abb0 "Waiting for tablespace metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, 
  m_name = 0x130abd8 "Waiting for schema metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130ac00 "Waiting for table metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, 
  m_name = 0x130ac20 "Waiting for stored function metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130ac50 "Waiting for stored procedure metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, 
  m_name = 0x130ac80 "Waiting for trigger metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130aca8 "Waiting for event metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, 
  m_name = 0x130aab8 "Waiting for commit lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130aad0 "User lock", m_flags = 0}, {m_key = 0, m_name = 0x130acc8 "Waiting for locking service lock", 
  m_flags = 0} } }

上述信息可以看出,正在请求performance_schema.global_status这张表的锁

排查业务代码

和业务方确认,agent中确实执行了 “show global status” , 但是已经设置了autocommit

简化逻辑后,agent代码如下

import MySQLdb
from time import sleep
conn = MySQLdb.connect(host=‘47.93.49.119‘, port=3001, user=‘xx1‘)
conn.autocommit = True
cur=conn.cursor()
cur.execute("show global status")
while 1:
    sleep(1)

代码中确实设置了autocommit,但是并没有生效(如果执行了commit,不可能不释放元数据锁)

MySQLdb.connect 返回 Connection 类,根据上述代码,autocommit是 Connection的成员属性

class Connection(_mysql.connection):

Connection 继承自_mysql.connection,_mysql 是c语言实现的python库,查看_mysql.c

static PyMethodDef _mysql_ConnectionObject_methods[] = {
    {
        "affected_rows",
        (PyCFunction)_mysql_ConnectionObject_affected_rows,
        METH_VARARGS,
        _mysql_ConnectionObject_affected_rows__doc__
    },
    {
        "autocommit",
        (PyCFunction)_mysql_ConnectionObject_autocommit,
        METH_VARARGS,
        _mysql_ConnectionObject_autocommit__doc__
    },
    {
        "commit",
        (PyCFunction)_mysql_ConnectionObject_commit,
        METH_VARARGS,
        _mysql_ConnectionObject_commit__doc__
    },

autommit 并不是成员属性,而是一个成员方法

结论

conn.autocommit = True 强行将 autocommit 的函数指针赋值为 True,并没有真正设置autocommit

5.6中没有发现这个问题

一是 agent 中只有查询语句,不设autocommit也能返回查询结果

二是 5.6中 “show global status” 查询的是 information_shcema,5.7中是performance_schema,5.6中不会影响 drop database performance_schema
