The first problem was that SHOW CREATE TRIGGER took a stronger metadata lock than required. This caused the statement to be blocked when it was not needed. For example, LOCK TABLE WRITE in one connection would block SHOW CREATE TRIGGER in another connection. Another problem was that a SHOW CREATE TRIGGER statement issued inside a transaction did not release its metadata locks at the end of the statement execution. This happened even if SHOW CREATE TRIGGER is an information statement. The consequence was that SHOW CREATE TRIGGER was able to block other connections from accessing the table (e.g. using ALTER TABLE). This patch fixes the problem by changing SHOW CREATE TRIGGER to take a MDL_SHARED_HIGH_PRIO metadata lock similar to what is already done for SHOW CREATE TABLE. The patch also changes SHOW CREATE TRIGGER to explicitly release any metadata locks taken by the statement after it completes. Test case added to show_check.test.
