Table lock race condition with replication

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      We have a MariaDB server that sometimes seems to get an indefinite table lock. The only way to solve it is to kill MariaDB and restart it. It "randomly happens", so I suspect it may be a race condition. The replication thread get's stuck in state "After opening tables". The lock seems to be caused by a query on an unrelated database with 3 million MyISAM tables (not receiving data via replication) in state "Opening tables". These databases are completely separated, so they shouldn't cause a lock between each other.

      Processlist shows:

      root@server ~ # mysql -e "show full processlist"
