InnoDB update_time is wrongly updated after partial rollback or internal COMMIT

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      The non-persistent UPDATE_TIME for InnoDB tables is not being updated consistently at transaction commit.

      If a transaction is partly rolled back so that in the end it will not modify a table that it intended to modify, the update_time will be updated nevertheless. This will also happen when InnoDB fails to write an undo log record for the intended modification.

      If a transaction is committed internally in InnoDB, instead of being committed from the SQL interface, then the trx_t::mod_tables will not be applied to the update_time of the tables.

      The problem can be demonstrated with the following:

      diff --git a/mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/update_time_wl6658.test b/mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/update_time_wl6658.test
      index 0b2b94ae2a9..d7ecfc4961f 100644
      --- a/mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/update_time_wl6658.test
      +++ b/mysql-test/suite/innodb/t/update_time_wl6658.test
      @@ -187,8 +187,9 @@ SELECT update_time
       FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_name='tab1i';
       
       BEGIN WORK;
      -INSERT INTO tab2 VALUES(1,'Oracle','NUTT',10);
      +DELETE FROM tab1i;
       SAVEPOINT A;
      +INSERT INTO tab2 VALUES(1,'Oracle','NUTT',10);
       INSERT INTO tab2 VALUES(2,'HUAWEI','BOLT',40);
       SAVEPOINT B;
       INSERT INTO tab2 VALUES(3,'IBM','NAIL',70);
      

      With this change to the test, the end effect of the transaction (which will do ROLLBACK TO A before COMMIT) is that it will not modify tab2. Yet, the UPDATE_TIME of tab2 is affected.
      If the SAVEPOINT A were at the very beginning of the transaction, then it would work correctly; a full ROLLBACK will empty the trx_t::mod_tables.
