Bug Description

With following configuration the mysqld crashes when trying to log in via mysql client.
How to reproduce:
* my.cnf:

[mysqld]
server-id = 256
user = mysql
basedir = /usr
datadir = /var/lib/mysql
port = 3306
pid-file = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.pid
log-error = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.err
explicit_defaults_for_timestamp = 1
log_bin = /var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin
gtid-mode = ON
log-slave-updates = 1
enforce-gtid-consistency = 1
autocommit = 0

* install Percona-Server-server-56-5.6.17-rel65.0.el6.x86_64
* clean data dir and re-initialize:
[root@vagrant-centos65 ~]# su mysql
bash-4.1$ cd /var/lib/mysql/
bash-4.1$ rm -fr *; mysql_install_db
Useless use of a constant in void context at /usr/bin/mysql_install_db line 888.

WARNING: The host 'vagrant-centos65.vagrantup.com' could not be looked up with /usr/bin/resolveip.
This probably means that your libc libraries are not 100 % compatible
with this binary MySQL version. The MySQL daemon, mysqld, should work
normally with the exception that host name resolving will not work.
This means that you should use IP addresses instead of hostnames
when specifying MySQL privileges !

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed,
something is definitely wrong and this may fail.

I am working with revision 601 of 5.6 branch and all line numbers in the code are for this revision.

The main issue I see here is in this error message during execution mysq_install_db:
ERROR: 1787 When @@GLOBAL.ENFORCE_GTID_CONSISTENCY = 1, the statements CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE and DROP TEMPORARY TABLE can be executed in a non-transactional context only, and require that AUTOCOMMIT = 1.
2014-05-30 00:55:19 25139 [ERROR] Aborting

I see at least three issues on different layers here:

1)
If we look into scripts/mysql_install_db.pl.in lines 740-787 are responsible for invoking mysqld in bootstrap mode and feeding the following files to it:
my $create_system_tables = "$pkgdatadir/mysql_system_tables.sql";
my $fill_system_tables = "$pkgdatadir/mysql_system_tables_data.sql";

The code use 'open(PIPE, "| $mysqld_install_cmd_line")' perl construction which allows easily work with pipes, but the return code of mysqld is not checked, so if something went wrong as in our case with mutually exclusive mysqld options mysql_install_db will ignore the error and continue the execution.

I would propose to check the return value of perl "close" function when the pipe is closed. Here is the description how to check error code of the child on another side of pipe with "close":

"If the filehandle came from a piped open, close returns false if one of the other syscalls involved fails or if its program exits with non-zero status. If the only problem was that the program exited non-zero, $! will be set to 0 . Closing a pipe also waits for the process executing on the pipe to exit--in case you wish to look at the output of the pipe afterwards--and implicitly puts the exit status value of that command into $? and ${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}." (http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/close.html)

In the case of unexpected mysqld termination mysql_install_db should be stopped with corresponding error message.

But this will not solve the issue completely. Imagine we have options in my.cnf which are not compatible with statements for creating and filling system tables. In this case mysql_install_db will fail and this will not allow to create and initialize data directory.

At the other hand this can be right solution as changing some common rules or checks depending on suggestions about the purpose of server launching would be not obvious and sometimes confusing. The error message will give possibility to understand what exactly options are incompatible with bootstrap and fix them manually completely understanding the situation.

2)
Here is the backtrace of mysqld when the error message is output during creating tables in mysql_install_db:

I tried to reproduce on upstream MySQL 5.6.17 again, but now with workaround the missing root user problem:
* removed datadir contents
* mysql_install_db --user=mysql
* overwritten the user.frm user.MYD user.MYI from another 5.6.17 instance having root@localhost
* started mysqld
* logged as root - no crash happens

Error log from the mysql_install_db stage:

This bug is divided into two bugs.

1) The first one is the floating point error if 'users' system table is empty. This is the case described in this bug report. The current releases (5.6.21-69.0-r675, 5.5.40-rel36.1-707, 5.1.73) do not contain the code with error, i.e. the bug has been already fixed.

2) The second one is reported here https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona-server/+bug/1382782 and this is a silent behaviour of mysql_install_db if mysqld is terminated on the step of system tables creating and filling. This is a separate upstream bug(http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=74440) and it should not be considered here.

So as (1) is fixed and (2) is a separate bug I propose to close the current bug.
