Bug #17708621 : EXCEEDING SORT_BUFFER_SIZE (FILE SORT)
WITH SORT ABORTED LEAKS FILE DESCRIPTORS ISSUE : IO_CACHE used for index_merge quick select is freed only on successful retrieval of all rows from index merge. Suppose if there is a interrupt( or failure) to this operation of row retrieval (let it be a KILL_QUERY signal) then we are not freeing the IO_CACHE resources allocated by index_merge quick select. And hence temp file associated with it is also not closed. This lead to a file descriptor leak. SOLUTION : As part of file sort operation now we always free the IO_CACHE allocated by index_merge quick select. sql/filesort.cc: In filesort function we try to free if any IO_CACHE allocated by index_merge quick select and if it is not yet freed.
