it's just an idea... maybe a user function could solve your problem, get_lock don't work with tables, it just use mysql server memory i think it's not 'crash fail', if you kill the mysql process all 'locks' are released and i think it use mutex and locks to only execute 1 lock for each 'str' variable, must check the source code
