Bug#12809202 61854: MYSQLDUMP --SINGLE-TRANSACTION
--FLUSH-LOG BREAKS CONSISTENCY The transaction started by mysqldump gets committed implicitly when flush-log is specified along with single-transaction option, and hence can break consistency. This is because, COM_REFRESH is executed in order to flush logs and starting from 5.5 this command performs an implicit commit. Fixed by making sure that COM_REFRESH is executed before the transaction has started and not after it. Note : This patch triggers following behavioral changes in mysqldump : 1) After this patch we no longer flush logs before dumping each database if --single-transaction option is given like it was done before (in the absence of --lock-all-tables and --master-data options). 2) Also, after this patch, we start acquiring FTWRL before flushing logs in cases when only --single-transaction and --flush-logs are given. It becomes safe to use mysqldump with these two options and without --master-data parameter for backups.
