      revno: 3457
      branch: 10.0-base

      Built with BUILD/compile-pentium-debug-max-no-ndb

      randgen revno 792

      Steps to reproduce

      Start server on a clean datadir as

      mysqld --no-defaults --disable-debug <--basedir, --datadir etc.>

      Branch or pull bzr tree lp:randgen

      cd randgen

      Download files mdev-3972.yy and mdev-3972.zz attached to the bug MDEV-3972 to the root of randgen folder

      Run

      perl ./gentest.pl --gendata=mdev-3972.zz --threads=8 --queries=100M --duration=3600 --dsn=dbi:mysql:host=127.0.0.1:port=3306:user=root:database=test --grammar=mdev-3972.yy

      Notes:

      Important: Do not forget to replace 3306 in gentest dsn option with your server's port if you run it on a different one.

      Important: I could NOT reproduce the crash when I built with BUILD/compile-pentium-valgrind-max-no-ndb, although I didn't keep trying for very long. With BUILD/compile-pentium-debug-max-no-ndb it was reproducible well enough.

      Important: the server option disable-debug was critical, at least on my machine: I could never reproduce the crash if I skipped the option. Please use it at least at the beginning, you can experiment later after you make sure it's reproducible this way.

      I ran the test using this exact algorithm, data and grammar files, 6 times in a row, to collect some statistics. 4 times it crashed with the stack trace described here, and 2 times it was MDEV-3983, but it did crash every time. It took from 3 to 20 minutes, but please allow it to run the full hour (as given in the test parameters) before giving up. I suppose you can also get other crashes from recently filed bugs. I don't know whether it means that they have the same root cause, or they are entirely different and just happen to be triggered by the same stress test.

      The test as configured above runs with 8 connections. Functionally, it's excessive, on a Windows machine I was able to get the crash with 4 connections. But on my Ubuntu installation, it required more. If you are getting the crash fast enough, you can try to reduce the number in the threads parameter, if it helps to debug.

      If you start the test again after crash, it's better to re-create the datadir. I've seen cases when stat tables were reported corrupted after a crash, and the server would crash again almost immediately, I suppose it can be misleading for debugging the underlying problem.

      I could not reproduce the problem on a slow 32-bit machine. I'm not sure whether it's because it's 32-bit or because it's slow, but please keep it in mind.
