本文針對MySQL InnoDB中在Repeatable Read的隔離級別下使用select for update可能引發(fā)的死鎖問題進行分析。

1. 業(yè)務(wù)案例

業(yè)務(wù)中需要對各種類型的實體進行編號，例如對于x類實體的編號可能是x201712120001，x201712120002，x201712120003類似于這樣?？梢杂^察到這類編號有兩個部分組成：x+日期作為前綴，以及流水號（這里是四位的流水號）。

如果用數(shù)據(jù)庫表實現(xiàn)一個能夠分配流水號的需求，無外乎就可以建立一個類似于下面的表：

CREATETABLEnumber ( prefix VARCHAR(20) NOTNULLDEFAULT''COMMENT'前綴碼', valueBIGINTNOTNULLDEFAULT0COMMENT'流水號', UNIQUEKEY uk_prefix(prefix) );

那么在業(yè)務(wù)層，根據(jù)業(yè)務(wù)規(guī)則得到編號的前綴比如x20171212，接下去就可以在代碼中起事務(wù)，用select for update進行如下的控制。

@Transactional long acquire(String prefix) { SerialNumber current = dao.selectAndLock(prefix); if (current == null) { dao.insert(new Record(prefix, 1)); return1; } else { current.number++; dao.update(current); return current.number; } }

這段代碼做的事情其實就是加鎖篩選，有則更新，無則插入，然而在Repeatable Read的隔離級別下這段代碼是有潛在死鎖問題的。(另一處與事務(wù)傳播行為相關(guān)的問題也會在下文提及)。

2. 分析與解決

當可以通過select for update的where條件篩出記錄時，上面的代碼是不會有deadlock問題的。然而當select for update中的where條件無法篩選出記錄時，這時在有多個線程執(zhí)行上面的acquire方法時是可能會出現(xiàn)死鎖的。

2.1 一個簡單的復(fù)現(xiàn)場景

下面通過一個比較簡單的例子復(fù)現(xiàn)一下這個場景首先給表里初始化3條數(shù)據(jù)。

insertintonumberselect'bbb',2; insertintonumberselect'hhh',8; insertintonumberselect'yyy',25;

接著按照如下的時序進行操作：

2.2 分析下這個死鎖

通過查看show engine innodb status的信息，我們慢慢地觀察每一步的情況：

2.2.1 session1做了select for update

事務(wù)238434拿到了hhh前的gap鎖，也就是('bbb', 'hhh')的gap鎖。

2.2.2 session2做了select for update

事務(wù)238435也拿到了hhh前的gap鎖。

截自InnoDB的lock_rec_has_to_wait方法實現(xiàn)，可以看到的LOCK_GAP類型的鎖只要不帶有插入意向標識，不必等待其它鎖（表鎖除外）

2.2.3 session1嘗試insert

可以看到，這時候事務(wù)238434在嘗試插入'ddd',1時，由于發(fā)現(xiàn)其他事務(wù)(238435)已經(jīng)有這個區(qū)間的gap鎖，因此innodb給事務(wù)238434上了插入意向鎖，鎖的模式為LOCK_X | LOCK_GAP | LOCK_INSERT_INTENTION，等待事務(wù)238435釋放掉gap鎖。

到了這里，我們可以從死鎖信息中看出，由于事務(wù)238435在插入時也發(fā)現(xiàn)了事務(wù)238434的gap鎖，同樣加上了插入意向鎖，等待事務(wù)238434釋放掉gap鎖。因此出現(xiàn)死鎖的情況。

2.3 debug it！

接下來通過debug MySQL的源碼來重新復(fù)現(xiàn)上面的場景。

這里session2的事務(wù)4445加鎖的type_mode為515，也即(LOCK_X | LOCK_GAP)，與session1事務(wù)的鎖4444的gap鎖lock2->type_mode=547(LOCK_X | LOCK_REC | LOCK_GAP)的lock_mode是不兼容的（兩者皆為LOCK_X）。然而由于type_mode滿足LOCK_GAP且不帶有LCK_INSERT_INTENTION的標識位，這里會判定為不需要等待。因此，第二個session執(zhí)行select for update也同樣成功加上gap鎖了。

這里sesion1事務(wù)4444執(zhí)行insert時type_mode為2563(LOCK_X | LOCK_GAP | LOCK_INSERT_INTENTION)，由于帶有LOCK_INSERT_INTENTION標識位，因此需要等待session2事務(wù)釋放4445的gap鎖。后續(xù)session1事務(wù)4444獲得了一個插入意向鎖，并且在等待session2事務(wù)4445釋放gap鎖。

這里session2事務(wù)4445同樣執(zhí)行了insert操作，插入意向鎖需要等待session1的事務(wù)4444的gap鎖釋放。在死鎖檢測時，被探測到形成等待環(huán)。因此InnoDB會選擇一個事務(wù)作為victim進行回滾。其過程大致如下：

session2嘗試獲取插入意向鎖，需要等待session1的gap鎖

session1事務(wù)的插入意向鎖處于等待中

session1事務(wù)插入意向鎖在等待session2的gap鎖

形成環(huán)路，檢測到死鎖

2.4 如何避免這個死鎖

我們已經(jīng)知道，這種情況出現(xiàn)的原因是：兩個session同時通過select for update，并且未命中任何記錄的情況下，是有可能得到相同gap的鎖的（要看where篩選條件是否落在同一個區(qū)間。如果上面的案例如果一個session準備插入'ddd'另一個準備插入'kkk'則不會出現(xiàn)沖突，因為不是同一個gap）。此時再進行并發(fā)插入，其中一個會進入鎖等待，待第二個session進行插入時，會出現(xiàn)死鎖。MySQL會根據(jù)事務(wù)權(quán)重選擇一個事務(wù)進行回滾。

那么如何避免這個情況呢？一種解決辦法是將事務(wù)隔離級別降低到Read Committed，這時不會有g(shù)ap鎖，對于上述場景，如果where中條件不同即最終要插入的鍵不同，則不會有問題。如果業(yè)務(wù)代碼中可能不同線程會嘗試對相同鍵進行select for update，則可在業(yè)務(wù)代碼中捕獲索引沖突異常進行重試。此外，上面代碼示例中的代碼還有一處值得注意的地方是事務(wù)注解@Transactional的傳播機制，對于這類與主流程事務(wù)關(guān)系不大的方法，應(yīng)當將事務(wù)傳播行為改為REQUIRES_NEW。原因有兩點:

因為這里的解決方案是對隔離級別降級，如果傳播行為仍然是默認的話，在外層事務(wù)隔離級別不是RC的情況下，會拋出IllegalTransactionStateException異常(在你的TransactionManager開啟了validateExistingTransaction校驗的情況下)。

如果加入外層事務(wù)的話，某個線程在執(zhí)行獲取流水號的時候可能會因為另一個線程的與流水號不相關(guān)的事務(wù)代碼還沒執(zhí)行完畢而阻塞。
