and invalidation in the most general case (non-temporary table and
not simple RENAME or ENABLE/DISABLE KEYS or partitioning command).

These changes are prerequisite for 5.1 version of fix for bug #23667
"CREATE TABLE LIKE is not isolated from alteration by other connections"
mysql-test/include/mix1.inc:
Extended coverage for behavior of ALTER TABLE statement under LOCK TABLES,
which should be consistent across all platforms and for all engines.
mysql-test/r/alter_table-big.result:
Changed test for bug #25044 to use @@debug and injected sleeps
infrastructure. Extended test coverage for ALTER TABLE's behavior
under concurrency.
mysql-test/r/alter_table.result:
Extended coverage for behavior of ALTER TABLE statement under LOCK TABLES,
which should be consistent across all platforms and for all engines.
mysql-test/r/innodb_mysql.result:
Extended coverage for behavior of ALTER TABLE statement under LOCK TABLES,
which should be consistent across all platforms and for all engines.
mysql-test/t/alter_table-big.test:
Changed test for bug #25044 to use @@debug and injected sleeps
infrastructure. Extended test coverage for ALTER TABLE's behavior
under concurrency.
mysql-test/t/alter_table.test:
Extended coverage for behavior of ALTER TABLE statement under LOCK TABLES,
which should be consistent across all platforms and for all engines.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
Made functions reopen_table() and close_handle_and_leave_table_as_lock()
available outside of sql_base.cc file.
Changed close_data_tables() in such way that after closing handler
for the table it leaves TABLE object for it in table cache not as
placeholder for ordinary name-lock but as placeholder for an exclusive
name-lock. Renamed this routine to close_data_files_and_morph_locks().
sql/sql_base.cc:
Made functions reopen_table() and close_handle_and_leave_table_as_lock()
available outside of sql_base.cc file.
Changed close_data_tables() in such way that after closing handler
for the table it leaves TABLE object for it in table cache not as
placeholder for ordinary name-lock but as placeholder for an exclusive
name-lock. Renamed this routine to close_data_files_and_morph_locks().
Also adjusted it so it can work properly not only in LOCK TABLES mode.
sql/sql_table.cc:
Changed the way in which ALTER TABLE implementation handles table
locking and invalidation in the most general case (non-temporary table
and not simple RENAME or ENABLE/DISABLE KEYS or partitioning command)
Now after preparing new version of the table we:
1) Wait until all other threads close old version of table.
2) Close instances of table open by this thread and replace them
with exclusive name-locks.
3) Rename the old table to a temp name, rename the new one to the
old name.
4) If we are under LOCK TABLES and don't do ALTER TABLE ... RENAME
we reopen new version of table.
5) Write statement to the binary log.
6) If we are under LOCK TABLES and do ALTER TABLE ... RENAME we
remove name-locks from list of open tables and table cache.
7) If we are not not under LOCK TABLES we rely on close_thread_tables()
call to remove name-locks from table cache and list of open table.
Such approach:
a) Eliminates possibility for concurrent statement to sneak in and get
access to the new version of the table before ALTER TABLE gets logged
into binary log.
b) Ensures that ALTER TABLE behaves under LOCK TABLES in the same way
on all platforms and for all engines (in 5.0 this was not true)
c) Preserves nice invariant that if table is open in some connection
there is a guarantee that .FRM file for this table exists and is
properly named.
global 'opening tables' lock." after merging it into 5.1 tree.
mysql-test/r/alter_table-big.result:
Fixed "show binlog events" usage as 5.1 and 5.0 sizes of binlog
events differ.
mysql-test/t/alter_table-big.test:
This test needs statement based binlogging.
Also fixed "show binlog events" usage as 5.1 and 5.0 sizes
of binlog events differ.
tables' lock."
Execution of ALTER TABLE ... ENABLE KEYS on a table (which can take rather
long time) prevented concurrent execution of all statements using tables.
The problem was caused by the fact that we were holding LOCK_open mutex
during whole duration of this statement and particularly during call
to handler::enable_indexes(). This behavior was introduced as part of the
fix for bug 14262 "SP: DROP PROCEDURE|VIEW (maybe more) write to binlog
too late (race cond)"
The patch simply restores old behavior. Note that we can safely do this as
this operation takes exclusive lock (similar to name-lock) which blocks both
DML and DDL on the table being altered.
It also introduces mysql-test/include/wait_show_pattern.inc helper script
which is used to make test-case for this bug robust enough.
mysql-test/include/wait_slave_status.inc:
Now wait_slave_status.inc reuses more generic wait_output_matches.inc script.
sql/sql_table.cc:
mysql_alter_table():
Changed ALTER TABLE ... ENABLE/DISABLE KEYS not to hold LOCK_open mutex
during call to handler::enable_indexes() as the latter can take rather
long time and therefore such ALTER would block execution of all other
statements that use tables. We can safely do this as this operation takes
exclusive lock (similar to name-lock) on the table which is altered.
