[MySQL] 2. Lock Mechanism Execution Analysis
1. Introduction
In high-concurrency environments, database locking mechanisms are crucial for ensuring data consistency and integrity. MySQL, as a widely-used relational database, provides various lock types and mechanisms to manage concurrent access. However, improper use of locks may lead to performance bottlenecks, deadlocks, and other issues that affect system stability and response time.
2. Basic Lock-Related Concepts
- Lock Definition: A lock is a mechanism used to control access to shared resources, preventing multiple transactions from modifying the same data simultaneously, thereby ensuring data consistency and integrity.
- Lock Types:
- Table-level Lock: Locks the entire table.
- Shared Lock (S Lock): Allows multiple transactions to read data simultaneously but prevents modification.
- Exclusive Lock (X Lock): Allows one transaction to modify data while preventing other transactions from reading or modifying.
- Intention Locks (IS and IX Locks): Used at the table level to indicate that a transaction intends to acquire locks at the row level.
- Auto-increment Lock (AUTO-INC Lock): Used to handle concurrent inserts on auto-increment columns, preventing conflicts.
- Gap Lock: Locks the gaps between index records to prevent phantom reads.
- Next-Key Lock: Combines record locks and gap locks, locking index records and the gaps before them.
- Record Lock: Locks specific index records.
- Row-level Lock: Locks specific rows.
- Optimistic Lock: Implemented through version numbers or timestamps, suitable for read-heavy scenarios.
- Pessimistic Lock: Implemented through explicit locking, suitable for write-heavy scenarios.
- Deadlock: Multiple transactions wait for each other to release locks, resulting in inability to continue execution.
- Lock Compatibility: Compatibility rules exist between different types of locks, determining which locks can coexist.
- Lock Granularity: The scope of locked resources; finer granularity provides higher system concurrency but increases management overhead.
