Description
Apparently InnoDB doesn't copy blob data during online ALTER TABLE. In a meanwhile it calls innobase_rec_reset(), which may reallocate memory for blobs.
It wasn't a problem before column compression was introduced, since in most (if not all) cases memory reallocation was not needed. With compressed columns reallocation is always there.
Grep for MDEV-12586 in source code for relevant markers. Re-enable online ALTER TABLE and run main.column_compression test.
Test not involving column compression:
CREATE TABLE t1(a INT) ENGINE=InnoDB;
|
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(1),(2),(3);
|
ALTER TABLE t1 ADD COLUMN b TEXT DEFAULT REPEAT("a", 5*a);
|
SELECT * FROM t1;
|
a b
|
1 NULL
|
2 NULL
|
3 NULL
|
DROP TABLE t1;
|
CREATE TABLE t1(a INT) ENGINE=MyISAM;
|
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(1),(2),(3);
|
ALTER TABLE t1 ADD COLUMN b TEXT DEFAULT REPEAT("a", 5*a);
|
SELECT * FROM t1;
|
a b
|
1 aaaaa
|
2 aaaaaaaaaa
|
3 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
|
DROP TABLE t1;
