BUG#28976 Mixing trans and non-trans tables in one transaction results in incorrect
binlog Mixing transactional (T) and non-transactional (N) tables on behalf of a transaction may lead to inconsistencies among masters and slaves in STATEMENT mode. The problem stems from the fact that although modifications done to non-transactional tables on behalf of a transaction become immediately visible to other connections they do not immediately get to the binary log and therefore consistency is broken. Although there may be issues in mixing T and M tables in STATEMENT mode, there are safe combinations that clients find useful. In this bug, we fix the following issue. Mixing N and T tables in multi-level (e.g. a statement that fires a trigger) or multi-table table statements (e.g. update t1, t2...) were not handled correctly. In such cases, it was not possible to distinguish when a T table was updated if the sequence of changes was N and T. In a nutshell, just the flag "modified_non_trans_table" was not enough to reflect that both a N and T tables were changed. To circumvent this issue, we check if an engine is registered in the handler's list and changed something which means that a T table was modified. Check WL 2687 for a full-fledged patch that will make the use of either the MIXED or ROW modes completely safe.
