Snapshot Top-K tie breakers before concurrent updates
When get_query_digests_topk() runs while existing digests are receiving queries, both paths now hold digest_rwlock for reading, so query_digest_candidate_better() can reread sum_time and count_star while they change. Those mutable values are used as tie breakers by both std::priority_queue and std::sort; changing them between comparisons violates the required strict weak ordering and can produce incorrect or undefined Top-K ordering and pagination. Store all comparator keys in each candidate when it is created, rather than dereferencing the live counters during comparisons.

Turning the `QP_query_digest_stats` counters into `std::atomic<>` broke every
conditional expression in `ProxySQL_Admin_Stats.cpp` that picks between a value
parsed out of a resultset row and the live counter:
rc = (*proxy_sqlite3_bind_int64)(statement1, 10,
resultset ? atoll(row->fields[8]) : qds->sum_time);
The operands of `?:` must have a common type. `std::atomic<T>` converts to `T`
via `operator T()`, and `long long` converts to `std::atomic<T>` via the
converting constructor, so each operand is convertible to the other and neither
can be selected as the composite type. The conditional is therefore ill-formed:
ProxySQL_Admin_Stats.cpp:1817:91: error: operands to '?:' have different
types 'long long int' and 'std::atomic<unsigned int>'
ProxySQL_Admin_Stats.cpp:1826:92: error: operands to '?:' have different
types 'long long int' and 'std::atomic<long long unsigned int>'
24 sites hit this, and they took down every build on the PR: the four packaging
matrix variants (debian12-dbg, ubuntu22-tap, ubuntu22-tap-mysqlx,
ubuntu24-tap-genai-gcov) and the cluster-simulator lib build all stop at
`obj/ProxySQL_Admin_Stats.oo`, which in turn skipped the whole TAP stage.
Load the counter explicitly at each site so the conditional has arithmetic
operands on both sides again. The composite type of the fixed expression is the
same `unsigned long long` the expression produced before the counters became
atomic, so the value bound into SQLite is bit-for-bit unchanged.
Sites fixed -- count_star, sum_time, min_time, max_time, rows_affected and
rows_sent, in both the 32-row batched path and the single-row path, for each
protocol:
1817, 1826-1830, 1843, 1852-1856 stats_mysql_query_digest
2682, 2691-2695, 2709, 2718-2722 stats_pgsql_query_digest
Two things deliberately left alone:
- `first_seen` / `last_seen` need no change. They are folded into the local
`seen_time` before being bound, so their conditional already has arithmetic
operands on both sides.
- The same fields read fine as plain function arguments elsewhere, e.g.
`ProxySQL_Admin.cpp:1114` and `QP_query_digest_stats::get_row()`. In an
argument position a single user-defined conversion applies unambiguously;
only `?:` is affected, so those call sites are untouched.

`get_query_digests_topk()` holds `digest_rwlock` for reading while it scans
`digest_umap`, and `query_digest_candidate_better()` dereferenced the live
`QP_query_digest_stats` for its tie breakers:
if (lhs.qds->sum_time != rhs.qds->sum_time) ...
if (lhs.qds->count_star != rhs.qds->count_star) ...
That was safe as long as `update_query_digest()` took the *write* lock, because
the exclusive lock kept every mutation out of the scan. Now that the common
path only takes the read lock, both run concurrently and those counters can
change between two comparisons of the same pair.
A comparator whose result is not stable for the duration of the algorithm does
not induce a strict weak ordering, which is undefined behaviour for both
`std::priority_queue` and `std::sort`. This is not merely a wrong-order
problem: libstdc++'s introsort relies on the ordering to bound its unguarded
partition loop, so an inconsistent comparator can walk past the end of the
range and corrupt memory or crash.
It is also easy to hit rather than theoretical. Only the primary metric was
snapshotted (`cand.sort_value`); the tie breakers were live. With the default
`sort_by = count_star` ties are the common case -- every low-traffic digest
sits at a `count_star` of 1 or 2 -- and `count_star` is exactly the field being
incremented underneath the sort.
Take one coherent snapshot of the eight mutable counters per entry, up front,
and rank on the snapshot:
- `query_digest_topk_candidate_t` carries the snapshot.
- `query_digest_snapshot_candidate()` fills it with relaxed loads.
- `query_digest_sort_metric()` and `query_digest_candidate_better()` read the
snapshot instead of the live entry.
- `matches_filters()`, the `matched_total_*` accumulators and the emitted
`query_digest_topk_row_t` read the same snapshot, so filtering, ranking,
the totals and the returned row all agree on a single reading of each
digest rather than sampling it four times.
The remaining ordering keys -- `digest`, `hid`, `username`, `schemaname` and
`client_address` -- are immutable after construction and are still read through
`cand.qds`, so they need no snapshot.
Output is unchanged when nothing is updating concurrently: the snapshot is by
construction equal to the live value in that case, so existing expectations
around Top-K ordering and pagination still hold.
Found by the Codex, cubic and CodeRabbit reviews on the PR, all three
independently.

`update_query_digest()` now takes `digest_rwlock` for reading on the common
path, which means every query is a reader and readers effectively never stop
arriving.
glibc's default lock kind is `PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_READER_NP`, under which an
arriving reader does not yield to an already-waiting writer. A sufficiently
dense stream of readers can therefore starve the writers indefinitely. The
writers on this lock are:
- `purge_query_digests_sync()` / `purge_query_digests_async()`
- the map swap in `get_query_digests_v2()` and
`get_query_digests_reset_v2()`, i.e. reading stats_mysql_query_digest
- the insert path for a digest seen for the first time
A stalled admin query is an annoyance; a stalled purge is not, because the
digest map then grows without bound. Ask for writer preference so a waiting
writer blocks newly arriving readers instead.
Whether this is reachable in practice depends on how close the read lock gets
to full occupancy, and at ordinary query rates a single hash lookup per
acquisition leaves plenty of gaps for a writer to get in. The change is closer
to insurance than to a fix for an observed hang -- but it costs one attribute
at construction, and the failure it removes (unbounded memory growth) is much
worse than the cost.
Two details worth recording:
- `PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_WRITER_NP` does *not* do this. glibc treats it the
same as reader preference; only the `NONRECURSIVE` variant actually blocks
new readers on a waiting writer.
- The `#if` guards on `__GLIBC__`, not on the constant. glibc declares the
lock kinds as an *enum*, not as macros, so `#if defined(PTHREAD_RWLOCK_...)`
is false even on Linux and would have silently compiled the portable
fallback everywhere -- a no-op that looks like a fix. Verified on
gcc:12/glibc that the intended branch is the one taken.
macOS and FreeBSD keep the default-initialised lock.

…time()
`get_query_digests_v2()` dumps the digest maps by swapping them out under the
write lock, serialising the snapshot without holding the lock, and then folding
back the entries that accumulated in the meantime. Both fold-back sites did it
like this:
qds_equal->add_time(
qds->min_time, qds->last_seen, qds->rows_affected, qds->rows_sent,
qds->count_star
);
`add_time(t, n, ra, rs, cnt)` records a *single observation* of duration `t` at
time `n`. It is the wrong primitive for combining two entries that have each
already accumulated many observations, and passing `min_time` as the duration
gets four of the eight fields wrong:
field add_time() did correct aggregate
------------------------------------------------------------------------
count_star += other->count_star same OK
rows_affected += other->rows_affected same OK
rows_sent += other->rows_sent same OK
min_time min(min_time, other->min_time) same OK
sum_time += other->min_time += other->sum_time
max_time max(max_time, other->min_time) max(.., other->max_time)
first_seen = other->last_seen if unset min of the two
last_seen = other->last_seen max of the two
So a digest that received traffic while a dump was in flight had its
`sum_time` incremented by the *smallest* duration ever seen for it instead of
by the traffic's actual accumulated time, its `max_time` compared against a
minimum, and its `first_seen` set from a last-seen timestamp.
This is a live reporting bug, not a latent one. `get_query_digests_v2()` is the
implementation behind `stats_mysql_query_digest` and `stats_pgsql_query_digest`
(ProxySQL_Admin_Stats.cpp:1993 and :2011), and the fold-back path is taken for
any digest that gets a query between the swap and the merge -- i.e. routinely,
on any busy instance. The visible symptom is `sum_time` (and the `avg_time`
derived from it) reading low, and `max_time` reading low, for exactly the
digests that are busiest.
`merge()` already implements all eight fields as proper aggregates -- it was
written for the purge reconciliation path in `purge_query_digests_async()` --
so use it here too. No new logic is introduced by this commit; it swaps one
existing primitive for the other, correct, existing one.
This predates the read-lock work in this branch and is fixed separately from
it. It is unrelated to the locking change except that both touch the same
reconciliation sites.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_012Jkov8tPy3mCEZYvgeioSB
Making the counters atomic turned the `last_seen` update in `add_time()` from a
plain assignment into a compare-and-exchange loop:
atomic_max(last_seen, static_cast<time_t>(n));
Of the six atomic updates in `add_time()`, this is the only one that does not
settle. `min_time` and `max_time` reach a steady state after the first few
samples and degrade to a single relaxed load; `first_seen` stops CAS-ing once
it is non-zero. But `n` is the calling thread's cached `curtime`, which only
moves forward, so `atomic_max()` on `last_seen` has to win a CAS on essentially
every query -- and retry whenever it loses one.
That is a contended round trip per query on the hottest digest's cache line,
paid for a value that is monotonic anyway. Store it, as the pre-atomic code
did. The store is still a mutation of an atomic, so it remains free of data
races and torn reads; it simply drops the ordering guarantee that nothing can
move `last_seen` backwards.
Nothing on this path needs that guarantee: `n` comes from `curtime` and moves
forward. The one caller that genuinely folds an older entry into a newer one --
the reconciliation in `get_query_digests_v2()` -- goes through `merge()`, which
takes the max explicitly, so the max semantics is preserved exactly where it
matters. That is why the preceding commit had to land first: with the fold-back
still going through `add_time()`, a plain store here could have moved
`last_seen` backwards during a stats dump.
Behaviour is unchanged. `digest_stats_unit-t`'s `test_first_last_seen` asserts
that `last_seen` follows the most recent sample, which a store satisfies.
Note this only removes one of the five read-modify-write operations
`add_time()` performs on a single cache line. For a workload dominated by one
digest, that line is now the serialising resource in place of the write lock
this branch removed, and the remaining four counter increments still contend on
it. Sharded or per-thread accumulation is the change that would actually remove
it; this commit is not a substitute for measuring that.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_012Jkov8tPy3mCEZYvgeioSB
This branch changes how `QP_query_digest_stats` is synchronised -- the counters
became atomic and the common update path dropped from an exclusive lock to a
shared one -- but the resulting contract was left implicit. It is subtle enough
that getting it wrong is easy: the Top-K ordering bug fixed earlier in this
branch was exactly a reader assuming the read lock gave it a stable view.
Write the contract down, at the four places a reader or a future change would
look. No functional change; comments only.
`QP_query_digest_stats` (include/query_processor.h) gains a class-level block
covering:
- What `digest_rwlock` actually protects. It guards the *map* -- insertion,
erasure, and the swaps done by the stats dumps and the purge -- and so
guarantees an entry pointer obtained under the lock stays alive while the
lock is held. It does not serialise updates to an individual entry.
- Why the counters are atomic. `update_query_digest()` now takes only the read
lock for an existing digest, so several threads can call `add_time()` on one
entry simultaneously, and concurrently with any reader holding the read lock
(`get_query_digests()`, `get_query_digests_topk()`). Without atomics those
updates would be data races.
- The limit of that guarantee, which is the part worth stating explicitly:
atomics give freedom from lost updates and torn reads *per field*. They do
not make a group of fields mutually consistent. A reader can see
`count_star` from after an update and `sum_time` from before it, and a
reader that re-reads a counter it has already used for ordering breaks the
strict weak ordering `std::sort` and `std::priority_queue` require. Readers
that need a coherent row must snapshot.
- Why `std::memory_order_relaxed` is the right choice: nothing is published
through these counters, so no happens-before relationship is needed, only
atomicity of each individual read-modify-write.
- Which members are immutable after construction and can be read under the
read lock with no synchronisation.
- That the atomics make the class non-copyable and non-movable.
`add_time()` and `merge()` get doxygen stating which is the right primitive for
which job -- one observation versus folding two accumulated entries together.
That is precisely the distinction the reconciliation fix earlier in this branch
turned on, so it is worth having at the declaration rather than only at the call
site.
`atomic_min_nonzero()` and `atomic_max()` (lib/QP_query_digest_stats.cpp) get
doxygen for the zero sentinel used by `min_time` / `first_seen`, and a note that
the loops settle to a single relaxed load once the counter stops improving.
`update_query_digest()` (lib/Query_Processor.cpp) gets a `@par Locking` block
describing the two phases: the read-locked fast path for an existing digest, the
write lock only for a first-time insertion, and why the map must be re-checked
after the upgrade -- the read lock is dropped before the write lock is taken, so
another thread may have inserted the same digest in between.

Keep last_seen monotonic across concurrent updates.
add_time() now runs concurrently under a shared lock. A call with n=100 can pause before Line 126, a later call with n=101 can store first, and the stalled call can then overwrite last_seen with 100. Selective purge compares this field in lib/Query_Processor.cpp at Lines 1248 and 1386, so it can delete a digest that received a newer query. Replace the store with atomic_max.

P3: These new counter reads use default memory_order_seq_cst, although the counters need only atomicity and all writers use memory_order_relaxed. Pass std::memory_order_relaxed to every new load() so large stats dumps avoid unnecessary ordering overhead.
