mysql InnoDB Method of setting the initial size when a table is built

When InnoDB is under heavy write pressure, the ES2en-ES3en extension also leads to data file extensions, however, InnoDB data file extensions require mutex to protect data files, which can lead to fluctuations. Dinky's blog illustrates the point:
When InnoDB under heavy write workload, datafiles will extend quickly, because of B-Tree allocate new pages. But InnoDB need to use mutex to protect datafile, so it will cause performance jitter. Xiaobin Lin said this in his blog:
The solution is as simple as knowing how big the data file is likely to grow and extending it up front. As you can see from the code, when InnoDB builds the table, the automatic initialization size is controlled by the constant FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE, and the initialization data file is controlled by the fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace() function. So to change the data file initialization size, simply change the incoming value of fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace, which defaults to FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE.
How to solve it? That's easy. If we know the datafile will extend to which size at most, we can pre-extend it. After reading source code, we can know InnoDB initial datafile size by FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE, and fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace() function to do it. So if we want to change datafile initial size, we only need to change the initial size parameter in fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace(), the default value is FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE.
Therefore, I added the parameter datafile_initial_size to the syntax, such as:
CREATE TABLE test (
...
) ENGINE = InnoDB DATAFILE_INITIAL_SIZE=100000;
If the value set is smaller than FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE, then FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE to ES54en_ES55en_single_ES58en_size is passed in for initialization.
So, I add parameter for CREATE TABLE 'datafile_initial_size'. For example:
CREATE TABLE test (
...
) ENGINE = InnoDB DATAFILE_INITIAL_SIZE=100000;
If DATAFILE_INITIAL_SIZE value less than FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE, I will still pass FIL_IBD_FILE_INITIAL_SIZE to fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace(), otherwise, I pass DATAFILE_INITIAL_SIZE value to fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace() function for initialization.
Therefore, the simple and safe patch have, we can see http: / / bugs mysql. com/bug php? Keep an eye on official progress:
So, I wrote this simple patch, see http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=67792:
