Problem: mysqlbinlog_base64 failed sporadically.
Reason: Missing "flush logs" before running $MYSQL_BINLOG,
which could start dumping the log file before server
has finished writting into it.
Fix:
- implementing --force-if-open option to "mysqlbinlog"
- adding --disable-force-if-open to make $MYSQL_BINLOG
fail on non-closed log files, to garantee that nobody
will forget "flush logs" in the future.
- adding "flush logs" into all affected tests.
The following is an excerption from the WL.
1. Change so that MIXED is default format
1.1 to change the default for command line --binlog-format
1.2 to alter global_system_variables.binlog_format calculation
basing on command line --binlog-format parameter and
its default.
2. Change test suite so that more testing is done by MIXED format.
2.1 to check if there are test cases requiring --binlog-foramt=statement via
`source include/have_binlog_format_statement.inc' and affected by
altering the latter to be "mixed".
2.2 to check the content of such vulnerable cases to find if
extending to the mixed does not modify results. In that case simply
substitute source arguments as explained.
2.3 if a test in mixed mode deals with features triggering
row-binlogging then if necessary we can switch explicitly
to statement mode or create another test to run with
non-recommended STATEMENT mode
Particullarily, extracting INSERT DELAYED
binlogging subtest for statement mode is performed, and
the snippet is moved into a separate test file.
Note that since now all three modes verify this use case
through 3 different tests.
No changes in item 3 of HLD appeared to be needed.
This saves one byte per Query_log_event on disk compared to 5.0.[0..3]. Compatibility problems with 5.0.x where x<4
are explained in the comments in log_event.cc. Putting back s/my_open(O_TRUNC)/(my_delete+my_create) change which had
been wiped away by somebody doing a wrong 4.1->5.0 merge (which happened just
before 5.0.3 :( ). Applying it to new events for LOAD DATA INFILE.
If slave fails in Execute_load_query_log_event::exec_event(),
don't delete the file (so that it's re-usable at next START SLAVE).
And (youpi!) fix for BUG#3247 "a partially completed LOAD DATA INFILE is not
executed at all on the slave" (storing an Execute_load_query_log_event
to binlog, with its error code, instead of Delete_file_log_event).
Now one can use user variables as target for data loaded from file
(besides table's columns). Also LOAD DATA got new SET-clause in which
one can specify values for table columns as expressions.
For example the following is possible:
LOAD DATA INFILE 'words.dat' INTO TABLE t1 (a, @b) SET c = @b + 1;
This patch also implements new way of replicating LOAD DATA.
Now we do it similarly to other queries.
We store LOAD DATA query in new Execute_load_query event
(which is last in the sequence of events representing LOAD DATA).
When we are executing this event we simply rewrite part of query which
holds name of file (we use name of temporary file) and then execute it
as usual query. In the beggining of this sequence we use Begin_load_query
event which is almost identical to Append_file event
Fixed (together with Guilhem) bugs in mysqlbinlog regarding --offset
Prefix addresses with 0x for easier comparisons of debug logs
Fixed problem where MySQL choosed index-read even if there would be a much better range on the same index
This fix changed some 'index' queries to 'range' queries in the test suite
Don't create 'dummy' WHERE clause for trivial WHERE clauses where we can remove the WHERE clause.
This fix removed of a lot of 'Using where' notes in the test suite.
Give NOTE instead of WARNING if table/function doesn't exists when using DROP IF EXISTS
Give NOTE instead of WARNING for safe field-type conversions
options for mysqlbinlog, with a test file.
This enables user to say "recover my database to how it was this morning at 10:30"
(mysqlbinlog "--stop-datetime=2003-07-29 10:30:00").
Using time functions into client/ made me move them out of sql/ into sql-common/.
+ (small) fix for BUG#4507 "mysqlbinlog --read-from-remote-server sometimes
cannot accept 2 binlogs" (that is, on command line).
