Document special thread IDs used in SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS output

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS output seems to use special thread IDs in some sections of the output. For example, check out this line from the SEMAPHORES section:

      --Thread 139981888375552 has waited at lock0lock.cc line 7221 for 0.0000 seconds the semaphore:
      		 
      Mutex at 0x7f8859c88068 '&lock_sys->mutex', lock var 0
      		 
      Last time reserved by thread 18446744073709551615 in file not yet reserved line 0, waiters flag 0
      		 
      wait has ended

      This semaphore is supposedly held by a thread with ID 18446744073709551615. This thread ID is FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF in hex. No threads with this ID are mentioned anywhere in the TRANSACTIONS section, so it does not appear to be a user thread. I would guess that this is a special identifier for some internal thread. If so, then we should document what thread this is referring to:
