Hello,

Some of our tests assert when running on the MySQL 5.6.6 labs june
release, *The assert is at pfs.cc line 3701. *In our case,
state->m_index == 0 and table->m_share->m_key_count == 0, so the
assert fires. *Is this assert correct?

Thanks
Rich Prohaska

Hi Rich,

The assert is:

DBUG_ASSERT((state->m_index < table->m_share->m_key_count) ||
(state->m_index == MAX_INDEXES));

which looks correct.

What it means is:
- table io done using an index should use m_index in the [0,
m_key_count-1] range.
For example with 10 indexes, [0, 9]
- table io done using no index at all should be done using m_index =
MAX_INDEXES

In this case, m_index = 0 (using the first index) with a table that has
no index (m_key_count = 0) looks like a bug in the caller.

It would help to have more details about the call stack leading to this
point, to see where the index value passed comes from.
