Running mysql_upgrade should end up with the exact same system tables as fresh
installations have after running mysql_install_db. To ensure the upgrade is
correct and complete:
- Remove the redundant modification of thread_id`. On 5.5 version, the
`general_log` table was created as `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log
(..., thread_id INTEGER NOT NULL, ...)`, and starting from 10.0+, the table is
created as `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log (..., thread_id BIGINT(21)
UNSIGNED NOT NULL, ...)`, but mysql_upgrade is not properly upgrading the
table. It modifies the `thread_id` twice in one query, which could leave the
table not modified and lead to other potential error when upgrading from
MariaDB 5.5 or older.
- Update `servers` to ensure `Host` and `User` has correct data type if
upgrading from 10.1 or older. On versions 10.0 and 10.1, the `servers` table
was created as `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS servers (..., Host char(64) NOT
NULL DEFAULT , ..., Owner char(64) NOT NULL DEFAULT , ...)`, and starting
from 10.2, the table is created as `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS servers (...,
Host varchar(2048) NOT NULL DEFAULT , ..., Owner varchar(512) NOT NULL
DEFAULT , ...)`.
