This is an automated cherry-pick of #70343

What problem does this PR solve?

Issue Number: close #68682

Problem Summary:

When a client disconnects while a statement in an explicit transaction is blocked in TiKV, TiDB cannot read the next command to notice the closed connection. The statement can keep retrying and retain transaction locks long after the client has gone away.

What changed and how does it work?

  • Register SQLKiller as client-go's kill-signal handler so TiKV retry checkpoints can cooperatively run the existing signal and connection-liveness checks.
  • Install the connection-liveness probe during ExecuteStmt by default, so disconnects can interrupt statement execution before a result set is returned. Exclude DDL, ANALYZE, LOAD DATA, IMPORT INTO, BACKUP, and RESTORE to avoid unexpectedly interrupting long-running operations when keepalive is not properly configured. Also exclude COMMIT and ROLLBACK because the corresponding client-go transaction-finalization actions are non-interruptible.
  • Resolve both SQL EXECUTE and binary COM_STMT_EXECUTE to the underlying prepared AST before deciding whether the probe is needed.
  • Cover BEGIN and autocommit=0 transactions with both COM_QUERY and binary prepared-statement protocols.

Check List

Tests

  • Unit test
  • Integration test
  • Manual test (add detailed scripts or steps below)
  • No need to test
    • I checked and no code files have been changed.

Unit and integration tests:

./tools/check/failpoint-go-test.sh pkg/server -run '^TestShouldInstallConnectionAlive$' -count=1
./tools/check/failpoint-go-test.sh pkg/server/tests/commontest -run '^TestClientDisconnectKillsExplicitTxn$' -count=1
make lint

Manual test with a real TiKV cluster:

tiup playground nightly \
  --db.binpath "$PWD/bin/tidb-server" \
  --db 1 --pd 1 --kv 1 \
  --without-monitor --port-offset 10000

The manual matrix closed the client TCP connection while statements were blocked and covered COM_QUERY, SQL PREPARE/EXECUTE, binary COM_STMT_PREPARE/COM_STMT_EXECUTE with parameters, BEGIN, autocommit=0, autocommit DML, INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE, SELECT ... FOR UPDATE, FOR UPDATE WAIT, FOR UPDATE NOWAIT, LOCK IN SHARE MODE, DO SLEEP(), ordinary SELECT SLEEP(), and DDL waiting for metadata locks. All 20 cases passed. Explicit transactions were rolled back and released their earlier locks in about one second. Disconnected DDL sessions were intentionally not killed and completed after their metadata-lock blocker was released.

Side effects

  • Performance regression: Consumes more CPU
  • Performance regression: Consumes more Memory
  • Breaking backward compatibility

Documentation

  • Affects user behaviors
  • Contains syntax changes
  • Contains variable changes
  • Contains experimental features
  • Changes MySQL compatibility

Fix the issue that a statement blocked in TiKV might continue running and retain transaction locks after the client disconnects during an explicit transaction

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved connection-liveness monitoring across statement execution, including prepared, traced, and analyzed statements.
    • Interrupted blocked statements now return the appropriate interruption error when clients disconnect.
    • Explicit transactions are properly rolled back after disconnects during lock waits.
    • Kill-signal handling is now connected during session initialization.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for client disconnects, blocked statements, prepared statements, and pessimistic transactions.
  • Build

    • Build and test configuration currently contains unresolved merge conflicts that may prevent compilation.

Review Change StackReview Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change installs connection-liveness probes for statement execution, propagates interruption errors, wires SQL kill handling into KV variables, and adds unit and TiKV integration tests for client disconnects during pessimistic transactions. Several files contain unresolved merge-conflict markers.

Changes

Connection disconnect interruption

Layer / File(s) Summary
Connection-alive execution paths
pkg/server/conn.go, pkg/server/conn_stmt.go, pkg/sessionctx/variable/session.go
Statement execution and prefetch operations install connection-liveness probes. Interrupted pessimistic-lock operations return ErrQueryInterrupted. Session KV variables receive the SQL kill handler.
Connection-alive validation
pkg/server/conn_stmt_test.go, pkg/sessionctx/variable/varsutil_test.go, pkg/server/tests/commontest/tidb_test.go
Tests cover probe selection, session wiring, client disconnects, explicit transactions, and rollback results.
Real TiKV disconnect tests
tests/realtikvtest/pessimistictest/*
Integration tests cover blocked queries, prepared statements, row-returning statements, explicit transactions, and multi-statement prefetch after socket disconnect.
Dependency and build declarations
DEPS.bzl, go.mod, pkg/server/BUILD.bazel
Dependency and Bazel entries were added or changed. These files retain unresolved merge-conflict markers.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 1958c

The branch cannot currently build or run its tests because several committed files still contain merge-conflict markers. Resolve these conflicts before merge.

Explanation

The implementation addresses issue #68682 by wiring SQLKiller into client-go, installing connection-liveness checks for explicit transactions, and adding relevant tests. However, unresolved merge-conflict markers remain in DEPS.bzl, go.mod, pkg/server/BUILD.bazel, pkg/server/conn_stmt_test.go, and pkg/sessionctx/variable/varsutil_test.go, leaving the change set non-buildable and not merge-ready.

Resolution

Resolve all merge conflicts and remove every conflict marker. Then rebuild and rerun the listed unit, integration, and lint checks to verify that the disconnect handling still interrupts statements, rolls back explicit transactions, and releases locks as required by issue #68682.

A rabbit found a lock in the hay,
And watched the lost client hop away.
The probe heard the vanished tune,
TiKV released the lock soon.
The session rolled back before noon.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔴 Critical | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Resolve the cherry-pick conflicts before merge.

Git conflict markers remain in Go and Bazel input files. go.mod and both Starlark files cannot parse, so dependency resolution, Bazel targets, and tests cannot run. Select one compatible dependency set, remove all markers, and regenerate Bazel metadata after the go.mod change.

  • go.mod#L121-L129: retain one coherent set of client-go, pd/client, and bodyclose versions.
  • DEPS.bzl#L4281-L4287: match the selected client-go version and checksum.
  • pkg/server/BUILD.bazel#L185-L190: remove the markers and retain the test dependencies required by conn_stmt_test.go.

Based on learnings, run make bazel_prepare after structural Bazel or Go module changes.
