[PATCH 3/4] vinyl: abort affected transactions when space is removed from cache

Vladimir Davydov vdavydov.dev at gmail.com
Sun Mar 24 00:07:23 MSK 2019


A DDL operation creates a new struct space container, moving unaffected
indexes from the old container, then destroying it. The problem is there
may be a DML request for this space, which was passed the old container
in the argument list and then yielded on disk read. When it resumes, it
may try to dereference the old space container, which may have already
been destroyed. This will most certainly result in a crash.

To address this problem, we introduce a new space callback, invalidate,
which is called for the old space on space_cache_replace(). In case of
vinyl, this callback aborts all transactions involving the space. To
prevent a DML request from dereferencing a destroyed space, we also make
the iterator code check the current transaction state after each yield
and return an error if it was aborted. This should make any DML request
bail out early without dereferencing the space anymore.

Closes #3420
