long shared-memory-base-names could overflow a static internal buffer
and thus crash mysqld and various clients. change both to dynamic
buffers, show everything but overflowing those buffers still works.
The test case for this would pretty much amount to
mysqld --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX --shared-memory=1 &
mysqladmin --no-defaults --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX shutdown
Unfortunately, we can't just use an .opt file for the
server. The .opt file is used at start-up, before any
include in the actual test can tell mysqltest to skip
this one on non-Windows. As a result, such a test would
break on unices.
Fixing mysql-test-run.pl to export full path for master
and slave would enable us to start a server from within
the test which is ugly and, what's more, doesn't work as
the server blocks (mysqltest offers no fire-and-forget
fork-and-exec), and mysqladmin never gets run.
Making the test rpl_windows_shm or some such so we can
is beyond ugly. As is introducing another file-name based
special case (run "win*.test" only when on Windows). As is
(yuck) coding half the test into mtr (as in, having it
hand out a customized environment conductive to the shm-
thing on Win only).
Situation is exacerbated by the fact that .sh is not
necessary run as expected on Win.
In short, it's just not worth it. No test-case until we
have a new-and-improved test framework.
Changed code to enforce that SQL_CACHE only in the first SELECT is used to turn on caching(as documented), but any SQL_NO_CACHE will turn off caching (not documented, but a useful behaviour, especially for machine generated queries). Added test cases to explicitly test the documented caching behaviour and test cases for the reported bug.
The log tables are by nature PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA tables,
which should not be affected by SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY or FLUSH TABLES
WITH READ LOCK.
The implementation of FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK already ignored log tables.
Now with this patch, the implementation of LOCK TABLE also ignore a
global read lock for log tables, which was the missing symmetry.
- Add build configuration parameter EMBEDDED_ONLY which will configure
the VS solution to produce only mysql embedded binary.
- Make necessary updates to successfully compile solution.
Problem: Temporary buffer which is used for quoting and escaping
was initialized to character set utf8, and thus didn't allow
to store data in other character sets.
Fix: changing character set of the buffer to be able to
store any arbitrary sequence of bytes.
In many cases, binaries can no longer dump core after calling setuid().
Where the PR_SET_DUMPABLE macro is set, use the prctl() system call
to tell the kernel that it's allowed to dump the core of the server.
Problem: crash on attempt to open a table
having "#mysql50#" prefix in db or table name.
Fix: This prefix is reserved for "mysql_upgrade"
to access 5.0 tables whose file names are not encoded
according to "5.1 tablename to filename encoded".
Don't try open tables whose db name or table name
has this prefix.
was erroneously converted to double, while the result of
ROUND(<decimal expr>, <int literal>) was preserved as decimal.
As a result of such a conversion the value of ROUND(D,A) could
differ from the value of ROUND(D,val(A)) if D was a decimal expression.
Now the result of the ROUND function is never converted to
double if the first argument is decimal.
"Embedded server requires mysql.plugin"
Embedded builds should not print any error when the mysql.plugin
table does not exist. This is achieved by checking for the existance
of the mysql.plugin table before attempting to open it and proceed
silently if it does not exist.
