1 1 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Transactions 3

2 2 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Outline transactions - generalities concurrency control concurrency problems locking

3 3 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College 1

4 4 Transactions – example Parts (P_id, P_name, Colour, Weight, Total_qty) Contracted (S_id, P_id, Qty) add a new contract for S4 for 200 pieces of P1

5 5 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Transaction logical unit of work sequence of database operations transforms a consistent state of a db into another consistent state between operations the db can be inconsistent

6 6 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Transaction Processing do not allow for one operation to be performed and the other ones not principle of transaction processing support if some operations are executed and then a failure occurs (before the planned termination) then those operations will be undone

7 7 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Transaction Manager COMMIT TRANSACTION a logical unit of work was successfully completed all the updates can be made permanent ROLLBACK TRANSACTION unsuccessful end of transaction all the attempted updates must be rolled back they are issued from applications

8 8 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Example execute(BEGIN TRANSACTION); execute(INSERT (S4, P1, 200) INTO Contracted); if(/*any error occurred*/) then go to undo; execute( UPDATE Parts WHERE P_id =P1 SET Total_qty = Total_qty + 200); if(/*any error occurred*/) then go to undo; execute(COMMIT TRANSACTION); go to finish; undo : execute(ROLLBACK TRANSACTION); finish : return;

9 9 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College SQL Support COMMIT and ROLLBACK No BEGIN TRANSACTION (in SQL2 and Oracle) all data definition and data manipulation statements are transaction initiating PostgreSQL provides BEGIN [TRANSACTION]

10 10 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College At the COMMIT point all updates, since the previous commit, are made permanent (will not be undone) all database positioning and all tuple locks are lost

11 11 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College ACID Properties of Transactions Atomicity all or nothing Consistency preserve database consistency Isolation transactions are isolated from one another Durability committed transaction updates are performed

13 13 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Concurrency more than one transaction have access to data simultaneously

14 14 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Three concurrency problems the lost update the uncommitted dependency the inconsistent analysis

15 15 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The lost update problem Transaction Atime Transaction B RETRIEVE (t)t1 t2 RETRIEVE (t) UPDATE (t) TO (t 1 )t3 t4 UPDATE (t) TO (t 2 )

16 16 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The uncommitted dependency problem Transaction Atime Transaction B t1 UPDATE (t) RETRIEVE (t)t2 t3 ROLLBACK

17 17 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The uncommitted dependency problem Transaction Atime Transaction B t1 UPDATE p UPDATE pt2 t3 ROLLBACK

18 18 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The inconsistent analysis problem

19 19 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Issue all these problems may lead to an inconsistent (incorrect) database is there a criterion based on which to decide weather a certain set of transaction, if executed concurrently, leads to an incorrect database or not?

20 20 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Serialisability criterion for correctness for concurrent execution of transactions: the interleaved execution of a set of transactions is guaranteed to be correct if it is serialisable correct the DB is not in an inconsistent state serialisability: an interleaved execution has the same result as some serial execution

21 21 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Serialisable schedule

22 22 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Notes the schedules described in the concurrency problems examples were not serialisable neither A-then-B nor B-then-A two different interleaved transactions might produce different results, yet both can be considered correct

23 23 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College 3

24 24 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Two-phase locking theorem if all transactions obey the two phase locking protocol then all possible interleaved schedules are serialisable i.e., they can be executed concurrently, because they will leave the database in a consistent state

25 25 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Two-phase locking protocol 1.before operating on an object a transaction must acquire a lock on that object 2.after releasing a lock a transaction must not go on to acquire any more locks phase1 (growing): acquire locks (not simultaneously) phase2 (shrinking): release locks (no further acquisitions allowed) usually locks are released by the COMMIT or ROLLBACK operation in practice trade-off between release lock early and acquire more locks and the two phase locking protocol

26 26 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Locking usually, applicable to tuples types X, exclusive - write S, shared - read rules compatibility matrix

27 27 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Compatibility matrix

28 28 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Data access protocol retrieve tuple acquire S lock (on that tuple) update tuple acquire X lock (on that tuple), or promote the S lock it holds (if it holds one) implicit request if request for lock is denied transaction goes in wait state until the lock is released livelock - first come first served X locks are held until end of transaction (COMMIT or ROLLBACK) (two phase locking protocol)

29 29 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The uncommitted dependency problem: OK Transaction AtimeTransaction B t1UPDATE (t) (X lock on t) RETRIEVE (t)t2 (request X lock on t) waitt3COMMIT / ROLL.. wait(release X lock on t) resume RETRIEVE (t)t4 (acquire S lock on t)

30 30 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College The lost update problem : dead-lock Transaction A time Transaction B RETRIEVE p t1 (acquire S lock on p) t2 RETRIEVE p (acquire S lock on p) UPDATE p t3 (request X lock on p denied) t4 UPDATE p wait (request X lock on p wait denied) wait wait

31 31 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Locking solves the three basic problems of concurrency theorem if all the transactions of a set S of transactions comply with the two phase locking protocol, then all their possible interleaved executions (schedules) are serialisable however, not all schedules produce the same result –think of examples introduces another problem: deadlock

32 32 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Deadlock two or more transaction are waiting for the other to release a lock in practice: usually two transactions detect a deadlock cycle in the wait-for graph, or timing mechanism break a deadlock rollback a victim transaction what happens to the victim?

33 33 Term 2, 2004, Lecture 6, TransactionsMarian Ursu, Department of Computing, Goldsmiths College Further topics two phase locking protocol - not feasible in practice (not efficient) levels of isolation degree of interference intent locking locking granularity SQL support no explicit locking facilities it supports different isolation levels (with locking behind the scenes)
