    Description

      MariaDB 5.5.38-galera, from MariaDB-hosted apt repo.

      After an "ALTER TABLE ... TRUNCATE PARTITION" operation on a LIST partition, a query against the table returns data which has been removed:

      CREATE TABLE `test` (
        `uniqueId` INT NOT NULL,
        `partitionId` INT NOT NULL,
        PRIMARY KEY (`uniqueId`,`partitionId`)
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB PARTITION BY LIST (partitionId) (
       PARTITION p01 VALUES IN (1),
       PARTITION p02 VALUES IN (2)
      );
       
      INSERT INTO `test`(`uniqueId`,`partitionId`) VALUES(407237055, 2);
       
      SELECT * FROM `test`;
      -- Returns 1 row
      SELECT TABLE_NAME, PARTITION_NAME, TABLE_ROWS FROM information_schema.PARTITIONS where TABLE_NAME = 'test';
      -- Confirms 1 row in partition 'p02'
      ALTER TABLE `test` TRUNCATE PARTITION `p02`;
      -- Query OK
      SELECT TABLE_NAME, PARTITION_NAME, TABLE_ROWS FROM information_schema.PARTITIONS where TABLE_NAME = 'test';
      -- Both zero
      SELECT * FROM `test`;
      -- Still returns 1 row(!!)
      SELECT SQL_CACHE * FROM `test`;
      -- Correctly returns zero rows
      SELECT SQL_NO_CACHE * FROM `test`;
      -- Correctly returns zero rows

      A colleague raised this issue with me, and I have been able to reproduce by the above method. When I tried with a RANGE partition rather than a LIST partition, I then saw the correct results whereas my colleague still reports seeing the same incorrect behaviour as above, with the different partitioning method. This may suggest that the issue is non-deterministic.
