我的学习记录，可能有误请谅解，提供了一些源码接口供有兴趣的朋友调试。
版本：5.7.17
一、LSN
innodb的lsn和oracle的scn一样，是一个重要的概念。是整个数据库数据同步的一种统一辨别标准，在很多地方都使用到了LSN比如
- 在flush list中正是是使用page的oldest lsn作为链表的条件
参考buf_page_t类中的 lsn_t oldest_modification;变量 - 在checkpoint中记录的也是lsn
参考宏 LOG_CHECKPOINT_LSN - 在物理文件中每个page最后的刷新lsn
参考宏FIL_PAGE_LSN - 在写日志落盘的时候也是以lsn为标准的
参考函数log_write_up_to
实际上lsn就是表示的日志量的字节数，是一个累加的值，在5.7中表现为:
/* Type used for all log sequence number storage and arithmetics */
typedef ib_uint64_t lsn_t;及一个8字节非负的整数。最大值及2的64次方。有了这种物理上概念，lsn很容易换算为当前日志的偏移量。
二、innodb中检查点的理解
这里我只讨论正常运行的情况下检查点。innodb中类似oracle的增量检查点。正常运行checkpoint是由master线程触发。我们知道脏数据通过page clean线程和lru manager线程是在不断写盘的，那么在进行异常重启的的时候我们必须要知道一个恢复的起点，但是这个起点是不能记录在内存中必要固化到磁盘，恢复的时候读取这个点以后的redo进行恢复，而checkpoint就是完成这个事情下面是checkpoint的执行流程。
正常情况下master线程会每秒进行检查点其作用有(参考log_checkpoint函数)：
- 检查是否有自上次检查点以来的脏数据写盘了。
- 如果有则在redo里面会为每个修改过的文件写入MLOG_FILE_NAME,完成后写入一个总MLOG_CHECKPOINT(参考fil_names_clear函数)。
1、MLOG_FILE_NAME主要记录至上次检查点以来更改过的数据文件。
2、MLOG_CHECKPOINT主要记录检查点的lsn。
这个步骤会遍历fil_system->named_spaces用于查找是否有自上次检查点以来修改过的文件链表。
- 如果有则在redo log header中写入相应的检查点信息包含(异步写)。
实际上我们可以理解检查点就是由master线程每秒醒来查看一下脏数据写到哪里了，然后将其记录到合适的位置，以备carsh recovery使用。(参考srv_master_thread函数)
三、show engine innodb中的检查点信息
下面是一个没有任何更新操作的库的信息如下：
Log sequence number 697794162
Log flushed up to 697794162
Pages flushed up to 697794162
Last checkpoint at 697794153- Log sequence number：已经写到log buffer中的lsn。
参考mtr_t::Command::finish_write函数。 - Log flushed up to：已经写到日志文件的redo的lsn。
参考log_write_flush_to_disk_low函数。 - Pages flushed up to ：此lsn之前的脏数据都已经写到了数据文件。
参考log_buf_pool_get_oldest_modification函数。 - Last checkpoint at ：最后一次检查点记录到了什么位置。
参考next_checkpoint_lsn函数。
下面是这段输出的源码：
fprintf(file,
"Log sequence number " LSN_PF "\n"
"Log flushed up to " LSN_PF "\n"
"Pages flushed up to " LSN_PF "\n"
"Last checkpoint at " LSN_PF "\n",
log_sys->lsn,
log_sys->flushed_to_disk_lsn,
log_buf_pool_get_oldest_modification(),
log_sys->last_checkpoint_lsn);一般来讲Log sequence number >Log flushed up to> Pages flushed up to>Last checkpoint at ，但是这里注意一下。Pages flushed up to 697794162和Last checkpoint at 697794153，显然这里是一个没有任何操作的库所以Pages flushed up to应该和Last checkpoint at 相等，但是这里存在差值，差值为：
- 697794162-697794153 = 9
这刚好是MLOG_CHECKPOINT的长度源码片段如下：
oldest_lsn <= log_sys->last_checkpoint_lsn + SIZE_OF_MLOG_CHECKPOINT
/** Size of a MLOG_CHECKPOINT record in bytes.
The record consists of a MLOG_CHECKPOINT byte followed by
mach_write_to_8(checkpoint_lsn). */
#define SIZE_OF_MLOG_CHECKPOINT 9四、我所debug的几种redo写盘的时机
