message:
Bug#35164: Large number of invalid pthread_attr_setschedparam calls
Bug#37536: Thread scheduling causes performance degradation at low thread count
Bug#12702: Long queries take 100% of CPU and freeze other applications under Windows
The problem is that although having threads with different priorities
yields marginal improvements [1] in some platforms [2], relying on some
statically defined priorities (QUERY_PRIOR and WAIT_PRIOR) to play well
(or to work at all) with different scheduling practices and disciplines
is, at best, a shot in the dark as the meaning of priority values may
change depending on the scheduling policy set for the process.
Another problem is that increasing priorities can hurt other concurrent
(running on the same hardware) applications (such as AMP) by causing
starvation problems as MySQL threads will successively preempt lower
priority processes. This can be evidenced by Bug#12702.
The solution is to not change the threads priorities and rely on the
system scheduler to perform its job. This also enables a system admin
to increase or decrease the scheduling priority of the MySQL process,
if intended.
Furthermore, the internal wrappers and code for changing the priority
of threads is being removed as they are now unused and ancient.
1. Due to unintentional side effects. On Solaris this could artificially
help benchmarks as calling the priority changing syscall millions of
times is more beneficial than the actual setting of the priority.
2. Where it actually works. It has never worked on Linux as the default
scheduling policy SCHED_OTHER only accepts the static priority 0.
Correction of backport patch:
* Fixed signature of check_access_table() for embedded build
* Fixed typo for last argument in a check_access() call from UINT_MAX to 0.

mysql-5.1-rpl-merge has been made a mirror of mysql-next-mr:
- "mysql-5.1-rpl-merge$ bzr pull ../mysql-next-mr"
This is the first cset (merge/...) committed after pulling
from mysql-next-mr.
2630.39.1, 2630.28.29, 2630.34.3, 2630.34.2, 2630.34.1, 2630.29.29,
2630.29.28, 2630.31.1, 2630.28.13, 2630.28.10, 2617.23.14 and
some other minor revisions.
This patch implements:
WL#4264 "Backup: Stabilize Service Interface" -- all the
server prerequisites except si_objects.{h,cc} themselves (they can
be just copied over, when needed).
WL#4435: Support OUT-parameters in prepared statements.
(and all issues in the initial patches for these two
tasks, that were discovered in pushbuild and during testing).
Bug#39519: mysql_stmt_close() should flush all data
associated with the statement.
After execution of a prepared statement, send OUT parameters of the invoked
stored procedure, if any, to the client.
When using the binary protocol, send the parameters in an additional result
set over the wire. When using the text protocol, assign out parameters to
the user variables from the CALL(@var1, @var2, ...) specification.
The following refactoring has been made:
- Protocol::send_fields() was renamed to Protocol::send_result_set_metadata();
- A new Protocol::send_result_set_row() was introduced to incapsulate
common functionality for sending row data.
- Signature of Protocol::prepare_for_send() was changed: this operation
does not need a list of items, the number of items is fully sufficient.
The following backward incompatible changes have been made:
- CLIENT_MULTI_RESULTS is now enabled by default in the client;
- CLIENT_PS_MULTI_RESUTLS is now enabled by default in the client.
The flag EXTRA_ACL is used in conjugation with our access checks, yet it is
not clear what impact this flag has.
This is a code clean up which replaces use of EXTRA_ACL with an explicit
function parameter.
The patch also fixes privilege checks for:
- SHOW CREATE TABLE: The new privilege requirement is any privilege on
the table-level.
- CHECKSUM TABLE: Requires SELECT on the table level.
- SHOW CREATE VIEW: Requires SHOW_VIEW and SELECT on the table level
(just as the manual claims)
- SHOW INDEX: Requires any privilege on any column combination.

The default name of the PID file was constructed, as documented,
based on the hostname. This name was subsequently used as the
base for the general log file name. If the name of the PID
file was overridden in the configuration, and no explicit name
was set for the general log file, the path location for the
PID file was used also for the general log file.
A new variable, 'default_logfile_name', has been introduced. This name
is constructed based on the hostname, and is then used to
construct both the PID file and the general log file.
The general log file will now, unless explicitly set, be
located in the server data directory (as documentated in
the server docs)
"have_profiling"
1) Renamed have_community_features server system variable to
have_profiling.
2) Removed eable-community-features configure option and
ENABLE_COMMUNITY_FEATURES macro.
3) Removed COMMUNITY_SERVER macro and replaced its usage by
ENABLED_PROFILING.
Only --enable-profiling is now needed to enable profiling.
It was the only existing "community feature", so there was
no need for both configure options.
Using --enable-community-features will give a warning message
since it no longer exists.

The fix proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665 introduces a performance issue
when fsyncing the master.info, relay.info and relay-log.bin* after #th events.
Although such solution has been proposed to reduce the probability of corrupted
files due to a slave-crash, the performance penalty introduced by it has
made the approach impractical for highly intensive workloads.
In a nutshell, the option --syn-relay-log proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665
simultaneously fsyncs master.info, relay-log.info and relay-log.bin* and
this is the main source of performance issues.
This patch introduces new options that give more control to the user on
what should be fsynced and how often:
1) (--sync-master-info, integer) which syncs the master.info after #th event;
2) (--sync-relay-log, integer) which syncs the relay-log.bin* after #th
events.
3) (--sync-relay-log-info, integer) which syncs the relay.info after #th
transactions.
To provide both performance and increased reliability, we recommend the following
setup:
1) --sync-master-info = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
2) --sync-relay-log = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
3) --sync-relay-log-info = 1 fsyncs it after every transaction;
Notice, that the previous setup does not reduce the probability of
corrupted master.info and relay-log.bin*. To overcome the issue, this patch also
introduces a recovery mechanism that right after restart throws away relay-log.bin*
retrieved from a master and updates the master.info based on the relay.info:
4) (--relay-log-recovery, boolean) which enables a recovery mechanism that
throws away relay-log.bin* after a crash.
However, it can only recover the incorrect binlog file and position in master.info,
if other informations (host, port password, etc) are corrupted or incorrect,
then this recovery mechanism will fail to work.
BUG#31665 sync_binlog should cause relay logs to be synchronized
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
Add sync_relay_log option to server, this option works for relay log
the same as option sync_binlog for binlog. This option also synchronize
master info to disk when set to non-zero value.

WL#4828 Augment DBUG_ENTER/DBUG_EXIT to crash MySQL in different functions
-------
The assessment of the replication code in the presence of faults is extremely
import to increase reliability. In particular, one needs to know if servers
will either correctly recovery or print out appropriate error messages thus
avoiding unexpected problems in a production environment.
In order to accomplish this, the current patch refactories the debug macros
already provided in the source code and introduces three new macros that
allows to inject faults, specifically crashes, while entering or exiting a
function or method. For instance, to crash a server while returning from
the init_slave function (see module sql/slave.cc), one needs to do what
follows:
1 - Modify the source replacing DBUG_RETURN by DBUG_CRASH_RETURN;
DBUG_CRASH_RETURN(0);
2 - Use the debug variable to activate dbug instructions:
SET SESSION debug="+d,init_slave_crash_return";
The new macros are briefly described below:
DBUG_CRASH_ENTER (function) is equivalent to DBUG_ENTER which registers the
beginning of a function but in addition to it allows for crashing the server
while entering the function if the appropriate dbug instruction is activate.
In this case, the dbug instruction should be "+d,function_crash_enter".
DBUG_CRASH_RETURN (value) is equivalent to DBUG_RETURN which notifies the
end of a function but in addition to it allows for crashing the server
while returning from the function if the appropriate dbug instruction is
activate. In this case, the dbug instruction should be
"+d,function_crash_return". Note that "function" should be the same string
used by either the DBUG_ENTER or DBUG_CRASH_ENTER.
DBUG_CRASH_VOID_RETURN (value) is equivalent to DBUG_VOID_RETURN which
notifies the end of a function but in addition to it allows for crashing
the server while returning from the function if the appropriate dbug
instruction is activate. In this case, the dbug instruction should be
"+d,function_crash_return". Note that "function" should be the same string
used by either the DBUG_ENTER or DBUG_CRASH_ENTER.
To inject other faults, for instance, wrong return values, one should rely
on the macros already available. The current patch also removes a set of
macros that were either not being used or were redundant as other macros
could be used to provide the same feature. In the future, we also consider
dynamic instrumentation of the code.
BUG#45747 DBUG_CRASH_* is not setting the strict option
---------
When combining DBUG_CRASH_* with "--debug=d:t:i:A,file" the server crashes
due to a call to the abort function in the DBUG_CRASH_* macro althought the
appropriate keyword has not been set.
Invalid (old?) table or database name in logs
Problem was still not completely fixed, due to
qouting.
This is the server side only fix (in explain_filename),
the change from filename_to_tablename to use explain_filename
in the InnoDB code must be done before the bug is
fixed.
Invalid (old?) table or database name in logs
Post push patch.
Bug was that a non partitioned table file was not
converted to system_charset, (due to table_name_len was not set).
Also missing DBUG_RETURN.
And Innodb adds quotes after calling the function,
so I added one more mode where explain_filename does not
add quotes. But it still appends the [sub]partition name
as a comment.
Also caught a minor quoting bug, the character '`' was
not quoted in the identifier. (so 'a`b' was quoted as `a`b`
and not `a``b`, this is mulitbyte characters aware.)
