Summary

  • expose mysql2 pool and connection methods through reflective and dynamic dispatch so Drizzle detects getConnection and pins one checked-out connection for transactions
  • support mysql2 query options, rowsAsArray, and text-protocol queries without bind values in the bundled fallback
  • reject bundled queries with Error objects carrying mysql2 code and errno metadata while serializing connection access
  • keep the perry-ext-mysql2 ABI and reflective behavior aligned

Fixes #9330
Fixes #9517

Testing

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check
  • cargo check -p perry-stdlib --features bundled-mysql2
  • cargo check -p perry-ext-mysql2
  • cargo check -p perry-codegen
  • cargo test -p perry-stdlib --features bundled-mysql2 mysql2 --lib
  • cargo test -p perry-ext-mysql2 --lib
  • live MySQL fallback E2E with Cargo removed from PATH: reflective and dynamic calls, query options, rowsAsArray, text-protocol BEGIN, Error metadata, and checked-out rollback
  • Drizzle 0.44.7 live MySQL transaction: one stable CONNECTION_ID across multiple statements
  • live MySQL E2E through the external mysql2 extension path

No version bump.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 02a3c

This PR adds bundled mysql2 dispatch and stable checked-out connections for transactions, but the current implementation can lose asynchronous results during option parsing and may reuse a database session with unfinished state after failures or timeouts; it also has a smaller invalid-SQL handling issue. The PR is not merge-ready until the promise lifetime and connection cleanup behavior are fixed or explicitly validated.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Report an unreadable SQL string instead of substituting an empty statement.

The string branch uses unwrap_or_default(). If jsvalue_to_string returns None for a string-tagged value, the request runs with empty SQL. The user then receives a MySQL syntax error rather than a clear parse error. The options-object branch already returns a descriptive error for this case.

♻️ Proposed fix
     let (sql, rows_as_array, option_values) = if query_value.is_any_string() {
         (
-            jsvalue_to_string(query_value).unwrap_or_default(),
+            jsvalue_to_string(query_value)
+                .ok_or_else(|| "Could not read the SQL string".to_string())?,

SQLx PoolConnection dropped while transaction is active rollback returned to pool documentation sqlx version 0.8

💡 Result:

In SQLx version 0.8, the behavior when a connection is dropped while a transaction is active is managed by the Drop implementation of the Transaction struct [1][2]. If a transaction is not explicitly committed or rolled back before the Transaction object goes out of scope, the Drop implementation automatically initiates a rollback [1][2]. Key aspects of this behavior include: 1. Automatic Rollback: The Transaction struct is designed to ensure that if neither commit nor rollback is called before it is dropped, a rollback is executed [1][2]. This prevents leaving dangling, open transactions on the connection, which could otherwise lead to unexpected behavior or resource leaks in the database [3]. 2. Connection Pool Safety: When a PoolConnection is returned to the pool, SQLx performs internal checks to ensure the connection is in a healthy state [4][5]. If a future or stream executor is dropped during an.await call, the connection state can become inconsistent [4][5]. SQLx attempts to mitigate this by pinging the connection before it is returned to the pool [4][5]. If the connection is found to be broken or in an unreliable state, it is closed rather than being returned to the pool [4][5]. 3. Recent Fixes: A specific issue involving transactions dropped during the BEGIN phase was addressed in recent versions (e.g., PR #3980 merged in August 2025), ensuring that the rollback logic is correctly triggered even if the transaction setup was interrupted [3]. It is recommended to explicitly call.commit or.rollback on your transaction objects to ensure clear and predictable control over your database state, rather than relying on the implicit Drop handler [6][7]. Top Results: [1], [4], [3], [5], [2]

site:docs.rs/sqlx-core/0.9.0/src/sqlx_core/pool/connection.rs PoolConnection Drop transaction rollback MySqlConnection

💡 Result:

In sqlx-core 0.9.0, PoolConnection’s Drop implementation does not directly roll back transactions. It asynchronously returns the connection to the pool via a spawned task. During return, SQLx calls ping(), which also flushes pending cleanup such as transaction rollbacks. (docs.rs)

Transactions themselves roll back on drop if neither commit() nor rollback() was called. (docs.rs)

For MySqlConnection, this means:

  • Dropping PoolConnection<MySql> schedules its return to the pool.
  • Dropping an active Transaction<MySql> schedules/initiates rollback.
  • The pool’s release process validates the connection and avoids returning it if it is unusable.
  • close_on_drop() closes the connection instead of returning it to the pool. (docs.rs)

SQLx 0.9 PoolConnection raw SQL BEGIN dropped returned pool rollback MySQL

💡 Result:

In SQLx 0.9, a significant improvement was made regarding transaction safety when dropping a transaction object during its initialization [1][2]. Previously, if a transaction was dropped while it was still in the process of executing the BEGIN statement, the transaction might be left in an open state on the connection, which could subsequently cause errors (e.g., failed nested transaction attempts or unintended state persistence) when that connection was returned to the pool [1]. The fix, implemented in PR #3980, ensures that the transaction object correctly initiates a ROLLBACK even if it is dropped during the BEGIN phase [1][2]. By constructing the Transaction state handler before the asynchronous BEGIN command is fully completed, SQLx ensures that if the object is dropped, a cleanup (rollback) operation is queued [1]. Key points regarding this behavior: 1. Implicit Rollback on Drop: By design, SQLx transactions implement Drop to automatically trigger a rollback if they have not been explicitly committed or rolled back [3][4][5]. 2. Limitations of Drop: Because Rust's Drop trait is not asynchronous, the actual rollback operation cannot be performed immediately and synchronously [6][7]. Instead, it queues a rollback command to be executed by the connection [4][8]. 3. Reliability: While relying on Drop is generally safe and intended for cleanup, explicit calls to.rollback or.commit are recommended to handle errors gracefully and avoid potential delays or ambiguities associated with implicit cleanup [6][7]. 4. MySQL Context: For MySQL and other client-server databases, since the connection is returned to the pool after the transaction drop, the database server will eventually process the queued rollback or close the session according to its own protocol, preventing the connection from staying stuck in a permanently open transaction state [9][7]. For developers, this update ensures that connection pool contamination from aborted transaction starts is handled more reliably in version 0.9 compared to previous releases [1][2].

site:docs.rs/sqlx-core/0.9.0 PoolOptions after_release MySqlConnection reset transaction pool release

💡 Result:

For SQLx 0.9.0, PoolOptions::after_release runs when a checked-out connection is returned to the pool—before it enters the idle queue. It receives &mut MySqlConnection and metadata:

use sqlx::mysql::MySqlPoolOptions;

let pool = MySqlPoolOptions::new()
    .after_release(|conn, _meta| {
        Box::pin(async move {
            // Optional custom cleanup/validation
            // sqlx::query("...").execute(conn).await?;
            Ok(true) // retain connection
        })
    })
    .connect(url)
    .await?;

Behavior:

  • Ok(true): connection is returned to the pool.
  • Ok(false) or Err(_): connection is closed.
  • SQLx then performs its normal on-release ping(), which also flushes time-sensitive transaction rollback state.
  • You generally should not manually issue ROLLBACK in after_release; SQLx transactions roll back on drop, and the pool’s release path handles cleanup/validation. (docs.rs)

💡 Result:

In SQLx, the connection pool management logic includes an internal mechanism to validate connections when they are returned to the pool [1]. When a connection is released, SQLx performs a health check by calling the ping method on the connection [1]. This on-release testing ensures that the connection remains viable and can be safely reused [1]. If the ping operation fails, the connection is considered broken, and it is closed via close_hard instead of being returned to the pool [1]. This process also serves to flush any time-sensitive states, such as pending transaction rollbacks, preventing inconsistent states from polluting the pool [1]. Regarding transactions, it is important to note that SQLx transactions are designed to automatically rollback if they are dropped before being committed. However, if a connection is left in an inconsistent state during an.await call (for example, due to a future being dropped), the internal pool logic attempts to detect this and ensure the connection is not returned to the pool in a state that would affect subsequent users [1]. Modern versions of SQLx (post-0.6) have undergone significant changes to the pool architecture to improve safety, cancel-safety for acquires, and the overall robustness of the connection lifecycle [2][3]. The manual release method was deprecated and removed in earlier versions [2], shifting management to be handled automatically when the connection guard is dropped [1].

Run both transaction commands on one checked-out connection.

js_mysql2_pool_query acquires a connection independently for each pool.query() call. If the calls use different connections, the raw BEGIN transaction can remain open in the pool until pool.end(). Acquire one connection, run both commands on it, and release it in finally.

Update the transaction test flow around the two pool.query calls to acquire one
checked-out connection, execute both BEGIN and ROLLBACK commands through that
connection, and release it in a finally block. Preserve the existing command
order and ensure the connection is always returned to the pool.
