USING THE PLUGIN INTERFACE.
ISSUE: No support for floating-point plugin
system variables.
SOLUTION: Allowing plugins to define and expose floating-point
system variables of type double. MYSQL_SYSVAR_DOUBLE
and MYSQL_THDVAR_DOUBLE are added.
ISSUE: Fractional part of the def, min, max values of system
variables are ignored.
SOLUTION: Adding functions that are used to store the raw
representation of a double in the raw bits of unsigned
longlong in a way that the binary representation
remains the same.
Problem:If Disk becomes full while writing into the binlog,
then the server instance hangs till someone frees the space.
After user frees up the disk space, mysql server crashes
with an assert (m_status != DA_EMPTY)
Analysis: wait_for_free_space is being called in an
infinite loop i.e., server instance will hang until
someone frees up the space. So there is no need to
set status bit in diagnostic area.
Fix: Replace my_error/my_printf_error with
sql_print_warning() which prints the warning in error log.
include/my_sys.h:
Provision to call sql_print_warning from mysys files
mysys/errors.c:
Replace my_error/my_printf_error with
sql_print_warning() which prints the warning in error log.
mysys/my_error.c:
implementation of my_printf_warning
mysys/my_write.c:
Adding logic to break infinite loop in the simulation
sql/mysqld.cc:
Provision to call sql_print_warning from mysys files
File names with colon are being disallowed because of the Alternate Data
Stream (ADS) feature of NTFS that could be misused. ADS allows data to be
written to alternate streams of a normal file. The data in alternate
streams cannot be seen by normal tools on Windows (explorer, cmd.exe). As
a result someone can use this feature to hide large amount of data in
alternate streams and admins will have no easy way of figuring out the
files that are using that disk space. The fix also disallows ADS in the
scenarios where file name is passed as some dynamic variable.
An important thing about the fix is that it DOES NOT disallow ADS file
names if they are not dynamic (i.e. if the file is created by using some
option that needs local access to the MySQL server, for example error log
file). The reasoning is that if some MySQL option related to files
requires access to the local machine (it is not dynamic), then user can very
well create data in ADS by some other means. This fixes only those scenarios
which can allow users to create data in ADS over the wire.
File names with colon are being disallowed only on Windows. UNIX
(Linux in particular) supports NTFS, but it will not be a common
scenario for someone to configure a NTFS file system to store MySQL
data on Linux.
Changes in file bug11761752-master.opt are needed due to
bug number 15937938.
THREAD POOLING STRESS TEST
PROBLEM:
Connection stress tests which consists of concurrent
kill connections interleaved with mysql ping queries
cause the mysqld server which uses thread pool scheduler
to crash.
FIX:
Killing a connection involves shutdown and close of client
socket and this can cause EPOLLHUP(or EPOLLERR) events to be
to be queued and handled after disarming and cleanup of
of the connection object (THD) is being done.We disarm the
the connection by modifying the epoll mask to zero which
ensure no events come and release the ownership of waiting
thread that collect events and then do the cleanup of THD.
object.As per the linux kernel epoll source code (
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+*/fs/eventpoll.c#L1771), EPOLLHUP
(or EPOLLERR) can't be masked even if we set EPOLL mask
to zero. So we disarm the connection and thus prevent
execution of any query processing handler/queueing to
client ctx. queue by removing the client fd from the epoll
set via EPOLL_CTL_DEL. Also there is a race condition which
involve the following threads:
1) Thread X executing KILL CONNECTION Y and is in THD::awake
and using mysys_var (holding LOCK_thd_data).
2) Thread Y in tp_process_event executing and is being killed.
3) Thread Z receives KILL flag internally and possible call
the tp_thd_cleanup function which set thread session variable
and changing mysys_var.
The fix for the above race is to set thread session variable
under LOCK_thd_data.
We also do not call THD::awake if we found the thread in the
thread list that is to be killed but it's KILL_CONNECTION flag
set thus avoiding any possible concurrent cleanup. This patch
is approved by Mikael Ronstrom via email review.
The use of Thread_iterator did not work on windows (linking problems).
Solution: Change the interface between the thread_pool and the server
to only use simple free functions.
This patch is for 5.5 only (mimicks similar solution in 5.6)
SHOW 2012 INSTEAD OF 2011
* Added a new macro to hold the current year :

PROBLEM:
mysql provides a feature where in a session which is
idle for a period specified by the wait_timeout variable
(whose value is in seconds), the session is closed
This feature is not present when we use thread pool.
FIX:
This patch implements the interface functions which is
required to implement the wait_timeout functionality
in the thread pool plugin.
1. Clear text password client plugin disabled by default.
2. Added an environment variable LIBMYSQL_ENABLE_CLEARTEXT_PLUGIN, that
when set to something starting with '1', 'Y' or 'y' will enable the clear
text
plugin for all connections.
3. Added a new mysql_options() option : MYSQL_ENABLE_CLEARTEXT_PLUGIN
that takes an my_bool argument. When the value of the argument is non-zero
the clear text plugin is enabled for this connection only.
4. Added an enable-cleartext-plugin config file option that takes a numeric
argument. If the numeric value of the numeric argument is non-zero the
clear
text plugin is enabled for the connection
5. Added a boolean command line option "--enable_cleartext_plugin" to
mysql, mysqlslap and mysqladmin. When specified it will call mysql_options
with the effect of #3
6. Added a new CLEARTEXT option to the connect command in mysqltest.
When specified it will enable the cleartext plugin for usage.
7. Added test cases and updated existing ones that need the clear text
plugin.
Several fixes :
* sql-common/client.c
Added a validity check of the fields metadata packet sent
by the server.
Now libmysql will check if the length of the data sent by
the server matches what's expected by the protocol before
using the data.
* client/mysqltest.cc
Fixed the error handling code in mysqltest to avoid sending
new commands when the reading the result set failed (and
there are unread data in the pipe).
* sql_common.h + libmysql/libmysql.c + sql-common/client.c
unpack_fields() now generates a proper error when it fails.
Added a new argument to this function to support the error
generation.
* sql/protocol.cc
Added a debug trigger to cause the server to send a NULL
insted of the packet expected by the client for testing
purposes.
There are two threads. In one thread, dml operation is going on
involving cascaded update operation. In another thread, alter
table add foreign key constraint is happening. Under these
circumstances, it is possible for the dml thread to access a
dict_foreign_t object that has been freed by the ddl thread.
The debug sync test case provides the sequence of operations.
Without fix, the test case will crash the server (because of
newly added assert). With fix, the alter table stmt will return
an error message.

On shutdown(), Windows can drop traffic still queued for sending even if that
wasn't specifically requested. As a result, fatal errors (those after
signaling which the server will drop the connection) were sometimes only
seen as "connection lost" on the client side, because the server-side
shutdown() erraneously discarded the correct error message before sending
it.
If on Windows, we now use the Windows API to access the (non-broken) equivalent
of shutdown().

PROBLEM: When sorting index during repair of
myisam tables, due to improper casting
of buffer size variables value of myisam_
sort_buffer_size is not set greater than

Introducing new collations:
utf8_general_mysql500_ci and ucs2_general_mysql500_ci,
to reproduce behaviour of utf8_general_ci and ucs2_general_ci
from mysql-5.1.23 (and earlier).
The collations are added to simplify upgrade from mysql-5.1.23 and earlier.
Note: The patch does not make new server start over old data automatically.
Some manual upgrade procedures are assumed.
Paul: please get in touch with me to discuss upgrade procedures
when documenting this bug.

include/m_string.h:
AIX does have bzero() in its system libraries,
and the configure phase detects it, including the prototype
(sets both HAVE_BZERO and HAVE_DECL_BZERO),
but the declaration is missing when the source is compiled.
Several attempts all failed.
This patch takes the brute force approach to always map
"bzero()" to "memset()" on AIX,
like is done on platforms where "bzero()" is not found at all.

The problem was that dlopen() related code was using just a subset
of the path normalization routines used in other places.
Fixed the expansion of the pre-dlopen() behavior for plugins and UDFs
to use a platform-dependent consistent encoding of the paths.
Fixed the error dlopen() error handling to take the correct error message
and strip off the trailing newline character(s).
Fixed tests to do a platform independent replace of directories and to
account for the traling slash.

CREATE_TIME IN INFORMATION_SC
It was impossible to determine MEMORY table creation time,
since it wasn't stored/exposed.
With this patch creation time is saved and it is available via
I_S.TABLES.CREATE_TIME.
Note: it was decided that additional analysis is required before
implementing UPDATE_TIME. Thus this patch doesn't store UPDATE_TIME.
This fix was accidentally pushed to mysql-5.1 after the 5.1.59 clone-off in
bzr revision id marko.makela@oracle.com-20110829081642-z0w992a0mrc62s6w
with the fix of Bug#12704861 Corruption after a crash during BLOB update
but not merged to mysql-5.5 and upwards.
In the Barracuda formats, the clustered index record no longer
contains a prefix of off-page columns. Because of this, the undo log
must contain these prefixes, so that purge and multi-versioning will
continue to work. However, this also means that an undo log record can
become too big to fit in an undo log page. (It is a limitation of the
undo log that undo records cannot span across multiple pages.)
In case the checks for undo log size fail when CREATE TABLE or CREATE
INDEX is executed, we need a fallback that blocks a modification
operation when the undo log record would exceed the maximum size.
