Cinder's resource tables (volumes, snapshots, backups, groups, group_snapshots) don't have required indexes to do efficient resource listings on the database engine. This forces the database to go through all existing database records for any listing (even when there are no additional user requested filtering) and check one by one the conditions, resulting in high CPU load on the database servers. As an example a listing for a project with a single volume: $ cinder list +--------------------------------------+-----------+------+------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | ID | Status | Name | Size | Volume Type | Bootable | Attached to | +--------------------------------------+-----------+------+------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | 8a6b11d5-3343-4c0d-8a64-8e7070d1988e | available | test | 1 | lvmdriver-1 | false | | +--------------------------------------+-----------+------+------+-------------+----------+-------------+ May result in the database going through thousand of records (all deleted records and all records for other projects), as demonstrated by the following SQL queries where 10435 rows existed in the database and had to be checked just to return a single one. This is the SQL equivalent of the earlier cinder list command: $ mysql cinder -e 'select id, display_name from volumes where not deleted and project_id="a41464e54125407aab09e0236cce2c3c"' +--------------------------------------+--------------+ | id | display_name | +--------------------------------------+--------------+ | 8a6b11d5-3343-4c0d-8a64-8e7070d1988e | test | +--------------------------------------+--------------+ Which if we look at the numbers of rows that it hits with `explain` we can see it hits every single row: $ mysql cinder -e 'explain select id, display_name from volumes where not deleted and project_id="a41464e54125407aab09e0236cce2c3c"' +------+-------------+---------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+-------+-------------+ | id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra | +------+-------------+---------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+-------+-------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | volumes | ALL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | 10435 | Using where | +------+-------------+---------+------+---------------+------+---------+------+-------+-------------+ This patch introduces a deleted and project_id index for the volumes, snapshots, groups, group_snapshots, and backups tables, which will allow the database to do efficient retrieval of records for listings. The reason why we order first by deleted and then by project_id is because when an admin does a listing with `--all-tenants` that query will be able to use the deleted table of the new compound index. We can see the new index this patch adds and how it allows the DB engine to efficiently retrieve non deleted volumes from the specific project. $ mysql cinder -e 'show index from volumes' +---------+------------+--------------------------------+--------------+---------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+---------------+ | Table | Non_unique | Key_name | Seq_in_index | Column_name | Collation | Cardinality | Sub_part | Packed | Null | Index_type | Comment | Index_comment | +---------+------------+--------------------------------+--------------+---------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+---------------+ | volumes | 0 | PRIMARY | 1 | id | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_service_uuid_idx | 1 | service_uuid | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_service_uuid_idx | 2 | deleted | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | ix_volumes_consistencygroup_id | 1 | consistencygroup_id | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | ix_volumes_group_id | 1 | group_id | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_deleted_project_id_idx | 1 | deleted | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_deleted_project_id_idx | 2 | project_id | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_deleted_host_idx | 1 | deleted | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | | volumes | 1 | volumes_deleted_host_idx | 2 | host | A | 1 | NULL | NULL | YES | BTREE | | | +---------+------------+--------------------------------+--------------+---------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+---------------+ $ mysql cinder -e 'explain select id, display_name from volumes where not deleted and project_id="a41464e54125407aab09e0236cce2c3c"' +------+-------------+---------+------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+------+-----------------------+ | id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra | +------+-------------+---------+------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+------+-----------------------+ | 1 | SIMPLE | volumes | ref | volumes_deleted_project_id_idx | volumes_deleted_project_id_idx | 770 | const,const | 1 | Using index condition | +------+-------------+---------+------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+------+-----------------------+ We also add another missing index for the volumes that is used by the create volume from image. The patch also updates 3 tests that were expecting the result from a query to be in a specific order when there is no actual ORDER BY in the query.
