[Lightning]: Panic on invalid Mertic countter operation

[Rustin170506]

Bug Report

Version: 6.1.0

Lightning panic on https://github.com/pingcap/tidb/blob/master/br/pkg/lightning/restore/restore.go#L2333

I think it's because float64(currOffset - startOffset) < 0.

panic: counter cannot decrease in value

value of currOffset comes from parser.pos which increase monotonically. the init value of parser.pos comes from chunk.Chunk.Offset. so it should happen that currOffset - startOffset < 0

need to reproduce it.

[D3Hunter]

user changed lightning code, cannot find code related to hash b3ee7aef716e39dd5c6744e4dac0fbbb3529aca7

not sure the root cause is from 6.1 code base or from user's customization

[D3Hunter]

update: the error happens when importing fixed-width text format file, not csv but pretend it as csv. in the datafile there're binary data which contains csv terminator which causes error.

cannot reproduce it now.

I printed newOffset and cr.chunk.Chunk.EndOffset

tidb/lightning/pkg/importer/chunk_process.go

Line 487 in 07508df

if kvSize >= minDeliverBytes || len(kvPacket) >= maxKvPairsCnt || newOffset == cr.chunk.Chunk.EndOffset {

there's an off-by-1 error, the chunk reader does not stop

root cause:

For data with lint terminator \r\n and don't set terminator in configuration and strict-format = true, we try to seek every 256MiB and read the next line terminator as the chunk end position

tidb/pkg/lightning/mydump/region.go

Lines 455 to 458 in aeafb18

	if err = parser.SetPos(endOffset, 0); err != nil {
	return nil, nil, err
	}
	_, pos, err := parser.ReadUntilTerminator()

But unfortunately we seek to \r and ReadUntilTerminator then found \n. So end position of a chunk is set to \n. But elsewhere we use \r as the position. This causes the off-by-1 error

workaround is, set terminator to '\r\n' in configuration. ReadUntilTerminator will work fine because it knows \n is not terminator.
