Problem: ======= - When online alter of InnoDB statistics table happens, any transaction which updates the statistics table has to read the undo log and log the DML changes during transaction commit. Applying undo log (UndorecApplier::apply_undo_rec) requires a shared lock on dictionary cache but dict_stats_save() already holds write lock on dictionary cache. This leads to abort of server during commit of statistics table changes. Solution: ======== - Disallow LOCK=NONE operation for the InnoDB statistics table. The reasoning is that statistics tables are typically rather small, so any blocking would be rather short. Writes to the statistics tables should be a rare operation.
