13.6.7.7 The MySQL Diagnostics Area

Table des matières

SQL statements produce diagnostic information that populates the diagnostics area. Standard SQL has a diagnostics area stack, containing a diagnostics area for each nested execution context. Standard SQL also supports GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS syntax for referring to the second diagnostics area during condition handler execution.

The following discussion describes the structure of the diagnostics area in MySQL, the information items recognized by MySQL, how statements clear and set the diagnostics area, and how diagnostics areas are pushed to and popped from the stack.

Diagnostics Area Structure

The diagnostics area contains two kinds of information:

  • Statement information, such as the number of conditions that occurred or the affected-rows count.

  • Condition information, such as the error code and message. If a statement raises multiple conditions, this part of the diagnostics area has a condition area for each one. If a statement raises no conditions, this part of the diagnostics area is empty.

For a statement that produces three conditions, the diagnostics area contains statement and condition information like this: 

Statement information:
  row count
  ... other statement information items ...
Condition area list:
  Condition area 1:
    error code for condition 1
    error message for condition 1
    ... other condition information items ...
  Condition area 2:
    error code for condition 2:
    error message for condition 2
    ... other condition information items ...
  Condition area 3:
    error code for condition 3
    error message for condition 3
    ... other condition information items ...

Diagnostics Area Information Items

The diagnostics area contains statement and condition information items. Numeric items are integers. The character set for character items is UTF-8. No item can be NULL. If a statement or condition item is not set by a statement that populates the diagnostics area, its value is 0 or the empty string, depending on the item data type.

The statement information part of the diagnostics area contains these items:

  • NUMBER: An integer indicating the number of condition areas that have information.

  • ROW_COUNT: An integer indicating the number of rows affected by the statement. ROW_COUNT has the same value as the ROW_COUNT() function (see Section 12.15, “Information Functions”).

The condition information part of the diagnostics area contains a condition area for each condition. Condition areas are numbered from 1 to the value of the NUMBER statement condition item. If NUMBER is 0, there are no condition areas.

Each condition area contains the items in the following list. All items are standard SQL except MYSQL_ERRNO, which is a MySQL extension. The definitions apply for conditions generated other than by a signal (that is, by a SIGNAL or RESIGNAL statement). For nonsignal conditions, MySQL populates only those condition items not described as always empty. The effects of signals on the condition area are described later.

  • CLASS_ORIGIN: A string containing the class of the RETURNED_SQLSTATE value. If the RETURNED_SQLSTATE value begins with a class value defined in SQL standards document ISO 9075-2 (section 24.1, SQLSTATE), CLASS_ORIGIN is 'ISO 9075'. Otherwise, CLASS_ORIGIN is 'MySQL'.

  • SUBCLASS_ORIGIN: A string containing the subclass of the RETURNED_SQLSTATE value. If CLASS_ORIGIN is 'ISO 9075' or RETURNED_SQLSTATE ends with '000', SUBCLASS_ORIGIN is 'ISO 9075'. Otherwise, SUBCLASS_ORIGIN is 'MySQL'.

  • RETURNED_SQLSTATE: A string that indicates the SQLSTATE value for the condition.

  • MESSAGE_TEXT: A string that indicates the error message for the condition.

  • MYSQL_ERRNO: An integer that indicates the MySQL error code for the condition.

  • CONSTRAINT_CATALOG, CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA, CONSTRAINT_NAME: Strings that indicate the catalog, schema, and name for a violated constraint. They are always empty.

  • CATALOG_NAME, SCHEMA_NAME, TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME: Strings that indicate the catalog, schema, table, and column related to the condition. They are always empty.

  • CURSOR_NAME: A string that indicates the cursor name. This is always empty.

For the RETURNED_SQLSTATE, MESSAGE_TEXT, and MYSQL_ERRNO values for particular errors, see Section B.3.1, “Server Error Message Reference”.

If a SIGNAL (or RESIGNAL) statement populates the diagnostics area, its SET clause can assign to any condition information item except RETURNED_SQLSTATE any value that is legal for the item data type. SIGNAL also sets the RETURNED_SQLSTATE value, but not directly in its SET clause. That value comes from the SIGNAL statement SQLSTATE argument.

SIGNAL also sets statement information items. It sets NUMBER to 1. It sets ROW_COUNT to −1 for errors and 0 otherwise.

How the Diagnostics Area is Cleared and Populated

Nondiagnostic SQL statements populate the diagnostics area automatically, and its contents can be set explicitly with the SIGNAL and RESIGNAL statements. The diagnostics area can be examined with GET DIAGNOSTICS to extract specific items, or with SHOW WARNINGS or SHOW ERRORS to see conditions or errors.

SQL statements clear and set the diagnostics area as follows:

  • When the server starts executing a statement after parsing it, it clears the diagnostics area for nondiagnostic statements. Diagnostic statements do not clear the diagnostics area. These statements are diagnostic:

  • If a statement raises a condition, the diagnostics area is cleared of conditions that belong to earlier statements. The exception is that conditions raised by GET DIAGNOSTICS and RESIGNAL are added to the diagnostics area without clearing it.

Thus, even a statement that does not normally clear the diagnostics area when it begins executing clears it if the statement raises a condition.

The following example shows the effect of various statements on the diagnostics area, using SHOW WARNINGS to display information about conditions stored there.

This DROP TABLE statement clears the diagnostics area and populates it when the condition occurs:

  1. mysql> DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test.no_such_table;
  2. Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.01 sec)
  3.  
  4. mysql> SHOW WARNINGS;
  5. +-------+------+------------------------------------+
  6. | Level | Code | Message                            |
  7. +-------+------+------------------------------------+
  8. | Note  | 1051 | Unknown table 'test.no_such_table' |
  9. +-------+------+------------------------------------+
  10. 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

This SET statement generates an error, so it clears and populates the diagnostics area:

  1. mysql> SET @x = @@x;
  2. ERROR 1193 (HY000): Unknown system variable 'x'
  3.  
  4. mysql> SHOW WARNINGS;
  5. +-------+------+-----------------------------+
  6. | Level | Code | Message                     |
  7. +-------+------+-----------------------------+
  8. | Error | 1193 | Unknown system variable 'x' |
  9. +-------+------+-----------------------------+
  10. 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

The previous SET statement produced a single condition, so 1 is the only valid condition number for GET DIAGNOSTICS at this point. The following statement uses a condition number of 2, which produces a warning that is added to the diagnostics area without clearing it:

  1. mysql> GET DIAGNOSTICS CONDITION 2 @p = MESSAGE_TEXT;
  2. Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
  3.  
  4. mysql> SHOW WARNINGS;
  5. +-------+------+------------------------------+
  6. | Level | Code | Message                      |
  7. +-------+------+------------------------------+
  8. | Error | 1193 | Unknown system variable 'xx' |
  9. | Error | 1753 | Invalid condition number     |
  10. +-------+------+------------------------------+
  11. 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Now there are two conditions in the diagnostics area, so the same GET DIAGNOSTICS statement succeeds:

  1. mysql> GET DIAGNOSTICS CONDITION 2 @p = MESSAGE_TEXT;
  2. Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
  3.  
  4. mysql> SELECT @p;
  5. +--------------------------+
  6. | @p                       |
  7. +--------------------------+
  8. | Invalid condition number |
  9. +--------------------------+
  10. 1 row in set (0.01 sec)

How the Diagnostics Area Stack Works

When a push to the diagnostics area stack occurs, the first (current) diagnostics area becomes the second (stacked) diagnostics area and a new current diagnostics area is created as a copy of it. Diagnostics areas are pushed to and popped from the stack under the following circumstances:

  • Execution of a stored program

    A push occurs before the program executes and a pop occurs afterward. If the stored program ends while handlers are executing, there can be more than one diagnostics area to pop; this occurs due to an exception for which there are no appropriate handlers or due to RETURN in the handler.

    Any warning or error conditions in the popped diagnostics areas then are added to the current diagnostics area, except that, for triggers, only errors are added. When the stored program ends, the caller sees these conditions in its current diagonstics area.

  • Execution of a condition handler within a stored program

    When a push occurs as a result of condition handler activation, the stacked diagnostics area is the area that was current within the stored program prior to the push. The new now-current diagnostics area is the handler's current diagnostics area. GET [CURRENT] DIAGNOSTICS and GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS can be used within the handler to access the contents of the current (handler) and stacked (stored program) diagnostics areas. Initially, they return the same result, but statements executing within the handler modify the current diagnostics area, clearing and setting its contents according to the normal rules (see How the Diagnostics Area is Cleared and Populated). The stacked diagnostics area cannot be modified by statements executing within the handler except RESIGNAL.

    If the handler executes successfully, the current (handler) diagnostics area is popped and the stacked (stored program) diagnostics area again becomes the current diagnostics area. Conditions added to the handler diagnostics area during handler execution are added to the current diagnostics area.

  • Execution of RESIGNAL

    The RESIGNAL statement passes on the error condition information that is available during execution of a condition handler within a compound statement inside a stored program. RESIGNAL may change some or all information before passing it on, modifying the diagnostics stack as described in Section 13.6.7.4, “RESIGNAL Syntax”.

Certain system variables control or are related to some aspects of the diagnostics area:

  • max_error_count controls the number of condition areas in the diagnostics area. If more conditions than this occur, MySQL silently discards information for the excess conditions. (Conditions added by RESIGNAL are always added, with older conditions being discarded as necessary to make room.)

  • warning_count indicates the number of conditions that occurred. This includes errors, warnings, and notes. Normally, NUMBER and warning_count are the same. However, as the number of conditions generated exceeds max_error_count, the value of warning_count continues to rise whereas NUMBER remains capped at max_error_count because no additional conditions are stored in the diagnostics area.

  • error_count indicates the number of errors that occurred. This value includes “not found” and exception conditions, but excludes warnings and notes. Like warning_count, its value can exceed max_error_count.

  • If the sql_notes system variable is set to 0, notes are not stored and do not increment warning_count.

Example: If max_error_count is 10, the diagnostics area can contain a maximum of 10 condition areas. Suppose that a statement raises 20 conditions, 12 of which are errors. In that case, the diagnostics area contains the first 10 conditions, NUMBER is 10, warning_count is 20, and error_count is 12.

Changes to the value of max_error_count have no effect until the next attempt to modify the diagnostics area. If the diagnostics area contains 10 condition areas and max_error_count is set to 5, that has no immediate effect on the size or content of the diagnostics area.
