Cause: MySQL daemon worked with uninitialized memory when accessing non-nullable GEOMETRY types. Consequence: Daemon could crash when mysqldump was performed. Fix: Memory is initialized properly. Result: mysqldump doesn't make daemon crashed any more.
when i try to dump our current database i always got errors and crash in mysqld log files after a simple: mysqldump --all-databases where one of the database is google maps (provides by google). mysql-5.1.61-4.el6.x86_64 upstream bug: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=65971 here is the log from mysql: ------------------------------------------------ 120721 13:13:50 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 120721 13:13:51 InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, size = 8.0M 120721 13:13:51 InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool 120721 13:13:51 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 2417296880 120721 13:13:52 [Note] Event Scheduler: Loaded 0 events 120721 13:13:52 [Note] /usr/libexec/mysqld: ready for connections.

It is also possible that this binary or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built, or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware. We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail. key_buffer_size=268435456 read_buffer_size=1048576 max_used_connections=6 max_threads=151 thread_count=5 connection_count=5 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 572953 K bytes of memory Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Thank you for reporting. I've gone through the discussion at [1], but I'm still not able to reproduce such failure. Are you able to reproduce it with the test case attached at [1] on a fresh datadir? If so, are there any other steps required or does it fail even on a fresh and empty DB on your machine? [1] http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=65971
it's always happened on our server. and even mysql (ie. oracle) can reproduce it (as you can see in the above bz). unfortunately the database is the commercial google maps api so i assume i can't send it to you. anyway we try to drop the database and import it then the same happened:-( so currently either mysql fix it and gives a patch or we'd have to update from 5.1 to 5.5 in which this's already fixed.
Is it possible to provide your my.cnf file, please?

Thank you for the my.cnf file. Unfortunately, I'm still not able to reproduce the failure. I believe a better backtrace could help, so I'd like to ask you for the following: 1. install mysql-debuginfo package if not done already 2. run mysqld with "--core-file" option (otherwise no coredump is generated) 3. generate a backtrace using the coredump file and e.g. gdb's "bt full" command Please, be aware that the coredump file is usually very large and check the backtrace and hide all sensitive data if needed.
Created attachment 601772 [details] backtrace I've finally reproduced it, using: $ valgrind --malloc-fill=ff /usr/libexec/mysqld --core-file and it is also possible using: MALLOC_PERTURB_=250 /usr/libexec/mysqld --core-file The attached file is a coredump file.
mysql has a fix for it. dare i ask for an src.rpm from rh?
(In reply to comment #8) > mysql has a fix for it. dare i ask for an src.rpm from rh? The way to get the priority of this bug raised to the point where it might get fixed in RHEL6 (without any upstream fix) is to open an issue through your regular customer support contact.
