Problem:
========
If a primary is shutdown during an active semi-sync connection
during the period when the primary is awaiting an ACK, the primary
hard kills the active communication thread and does not ensure the
transaction was received by a replica. This can lead to an
inconsistent replication state.
Solution:
========
During shutdown, the primary should wait for an ACK or timeout
before hard killing a thread which is awaiting a communication. We
extend the `SHUTDOWN WAIT FOR SLAVES` logic to identify and ignore
any threads waiting for a semi-sync ACK in phase 1. Then, before
stopping the ack receiver thread, the shutdown is delayed until all
waiting semi-sync connections receive an ACK or time out. The
connections are then killed in phase 2.
Notes:
1) There remains an unresolved corner case that affects this
patch. MDEV-28141: Slave crashes with Packets out of order when
connecting to a shutting down master. Specifically, If a slave is
connecting to a master which is actively shutting down, the slave
can crash with a "Packets out of order" assertion error. To get
around this issue in the MTR tests, the primary will wait a small
amount of time before phase 1 killing threads to let the replicas
safely stop (if applicable).
2) This patch also fixes MDEV-28114: Semi-sync Master ACK Receiver
Thread Can Error on COM_QUIT

Problem:
========
When both semi-sync and slave compression are enabled, the numbering
on packet headers can become out of sync between the primary and
replica servers. More specifically, after the master flushes its
write, it should increment the counters that track packets. The
bug is such that the master only updates the normal packet counter
and leaves the compressed packet counter alone.
Solution:
========
After the master flushes, additionally increment the compressed
packet counter.

thd->transaction points by default to 'thd->default_transaction'
This allows us to 'easily' have multiple active transactions for a
THD object, like when reading data from the mysql.proc table
Originally introduced by e972125f1 to avoid harmless wait for
LOCK_global_system_variables in a newly created thread, which creation was
initiated by system variable update.
At the same time it opens dangerous hole, when system variable update
thread already released LOCK_global_system_variables and ack_receiver
thread haven't yet completed new THD construction. In this case THD
constructor goes completely unprotected.
Since ack_receiver.stop() waits for the thread to go down, we have to
temporarily release LOCK_global_system_variables so that it doesn't
deadlock with ack_receiver.run(). Unfortunately it breaks atomicity
of rpl_semi_sync_master_enabled updates and makes them not serialized.
LOCK_rpl_semi_sync_master_enabled was introduced to workaround the above.

Part of MDEV-14984 - regression in connect performance
The patch fixes a fired assert in the semisync master module. The assert
caught attempt to switch semisync off (per rpl_semi_sync_master_wait_no_slave = OFF)
when it was not even initialized (per rpl_semi_sync_master_enabled = OFF).
The switching-off execution branch is relocated under one that executes
enable_master() first.
A minor cleaup is done to remove the int return from two functions that
did not return anything but an error which could not happen in the functions.
Handle string length as size_t, consistently (almost always:))
Change function prototypes to accept size_t, where in the past
ulong or uint were used. change local/member variables to size_t
when appropriate.
This fix excludes rocksdb, spider,spider, sphinx and connect for now.
This was done in, among other things:
- thd->db and thd->db_length
- TABLE_LIST tablename, db, alias and schema_name
- Audit plugin database name
- lex->db
- All db and table names in Alter_table_ctx
- st_select_lex db
Other things:
- Changed a lot of functions to take const LEX_CSTRING* as argument
for db, table_name and alias. See init_one_table() as an example.
- Changed some function arguments from LEX_CSTRING to const LEX_CSTRING
- Changed some lists from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING
- threads_mysql.result changed because process list_db wasn't always
correctly updated
- New append_identifier() function that takes LEX_CSTRING* as arguments
- Added new element tmp_buff to Alter_table_ctx to separate temp name
handling from temporary space
- Ensure we store the length after my_casedn_str() of table/db names
- Removed not used version of rename_table_in_stat_tables()
- Changed Natural_join_column::table_name and db_name() to never return
NULL (used for print)
- thd->get_db() now returns db as a printable string (thd->db.str or "")
and specifically the ack receiving functionality.
Semisync is turned to be static instead of plugin so its functions
are invoked at the same points as RUN_HOOKS.
The RUN_HOOKS and the observer interface remain to be removed by later
patch.
Todo:
React on killed status by repl_semisync_master.wait_after_sync(). Currently
Repl_semi_sync_master::commit_trx does not check the killed status.
There were few bugfixes found that are present in mysql and its unclear
whether/how they are covered. Those include:
