MDL(Meta Data LocK)的作用

在MySQL5.1及之前的版本中，如果有未提交的事务trx，当执行DROP/RENAME/ALTER TABLE RENAME操作时，不会被其他事务阻塞住。这会导致如下问题(MySQL bug#989)

master：未提交的事务，但SQL已经完成(binlog也准备好了)，表schema发生更改，在commit的时候不会被察觉到.

slave：在binlog里是以事务提交顺序记录的，DDL隐式提交，因此在备库先执行DDL，后执行事务trx，由于trx作用的表已经发生了改变，因此trx会执行失败。在DDL时的主库DML压力越大，这个问题触发的可能性就越高

在5.5引入了MDL（meta data lock）锁来解决在这个问题

MDL锁的类型

metadata lock也是一种锁。每个metadata lock都会定义锁住的对象，锁的持有时间和锁的类型

这些锁具有以下层级关系

MDL锁的简单示例

在实际工作中，最常见的MDL冲突就DDL的操作被没用提交的事务所阻塞。我们下面通过一个具体的实例来演示DDL加MDL锁的过程。在这个实例中，利用gdb来跟踪DDL申请MDL锁的过程。

会话1:

mysql> create table ti(id int primary key, c1 int, key(c1)) engine=InnoDB 
stats_auto_recalc=default;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec)

mysql> insert into ti values (1,1), (2,2);
Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.03 sec)
Records: 2 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0

mysql> start transaction;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> select * from ti;
+----+------+
| id | c1 |
+----+------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 |
+----+------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

再开启第二个会话,利用gdb来跟踪mysql加MDL的过程会话2：

[root@localhost mysql]# ps -ef|grep mysql

Continuing.....

开启第三个会话

mysql> alter table ti stats_auto_recalc=1;
这个操作被hang住

在会话2中执行下面的操作

(gdb) p mdl_request
$1 = (MDL_request *) 0x7f697d1c3bd0
(gdb) p *mdl_request
$2 = {
type = MDL_INTENTION_EXCLUSIVE, duration = MDL_STATEMENT, next_in_list = 0x7f697002a560, prev_in_list = 0x7f697d1c3df8, ticket = 0x0, key = {m_length = 3, m_db_name_length = 0,

static m_namespace_to_wait_state_name = {
{m_key = 101,
 m_name = 0xf125a2 "Waiting for global read lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 102, 
	m_name = 0xf125c0 "Waiting for schema metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 103,
 m_name = 0xf125e8 "Waiting for table metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 104, 
	m_name = 0xf12608 "Waiting for stored function metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 105,
 m_name = 0xf12638 "Waiting for stored procedure metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 106, 
	m_name = 0xf12668 "Waiting for trigger metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 107,
 m_name = 0xf12690 "Waiting for event metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 108, 
	m_name = 0xf126b0 "Waiting for commit lock", m_flags = 0}}}}
(gdb)

从上面的输出中，我只能看到申请了一个语句级别的MDL_INTENTION_EXCLUSIVE。并没有看到什么其他有意义的信息。我们继续gdb跟踪

(gdb) p *(mdl_request->next_in_list)
$3 = {type = MDL_INTENTION_EXCLUSIVE, duration = MDL_TRANSACTION, next_in_list = 0x7f697002a388, prev_in_list = 0x7f697d1c3bd8, ticket = 0x0, key = {m_length = 7, m_db_name_length = 4,

static m_namespace_to_wait_state_name = {
{m_key = 101,
 m_name = 0xf125a2 "Waiting for global read lock", m_flags = 0},

{m_key = 108, 
	m_name = 0xf126b0 "Waiting for commit lock", m_flags = 0}}}}

从上面的输出中，我们看到了需要在test（见输出中的 m_ptr = “\001test）数据库上加一把事务级的MDL_INTENTION_EXCLUSIVE锁。它并没有告诉我们最终的MDL会落在哪个对象上。我们继续跟踪

$4 = {type = MDL_SHARED_UPGRADABLE, duration = MDL_TRANSACTION, next_in_list = 0x0, prev_in_list = 0x7f697002a568, ticket = 0x0, key = {m_length = 9, m_db_name_length = 4,
 m_ptr = "\002test\000ti", '\000' <repeats 378 times>, 
static m_namespace_to_wait_state_name = {
{m_key = 101, 
	m_name = 0xf125a2 "Waiting for global read lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 102,
	m_name = 0xf125c0 "Waiting for schema metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 103, 
	m_name = 0xf125e8 "Waiting for table metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 104,
 m_name = 0xf12608 "Waiting for stored function metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 105, 
	m_name = 0xf12638 "Waiting for stored procedure metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 106,
 m_name = 0xf12668 "Waiting for trigger metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 107, 
	m_name = 0xf12690 "Waiting for event metadata lock", m_flags = 0}, 
{m_key = 108,
 m_name = 0xf126b0 "Waiting for commit lock", m_flags = 0}}}}

从上面的输出中，我们可以看出最终是要在test数据库的ti对象上加一把MDL_SHARED_UPGRADABLE锁。在做DDL时会先加MDL_SHARED_UPGRADABLE锁，然后升级到MDL_EXCLUSIVE锁

我来执行下面的过程会话1

{m_key = 108, 
	m_name = 0xf126b0 "Waiting for commit lock", m_flags = 0}}}}

从上面的输出中，我们看到了最终是在test.ti上申请了事务级别的MDL_EXCLUSIVE锁。

小结

本例只是简单的演示了，在同一个事务的不同时期加的不同的MDL的锁。MYSQL中DDL的操作不属于事务操作的范围。这就给mysql主备基于语句级别同步带来了困难。mysql主备在同步的过程中，为了保证主备结构一致性，而引入了MDL机制。为了尽可能的降低MDL带来的影响。请在业务低谷的时候，执行DDL操作。
