items in the partitioning function were taking
the table name from the table's field
(in set_field(from_field) in Item_field::fix_fields)
and field's table_name is TABLE::alias.
But alias is changed for every statement, and
can be realloced if next statement uses a longer
alias. But partitioning items are fixed once
and live as long as the TABLE does. So if
an alias is realloced, pointers to the old
alias string will become invalid.
Fix partitioning item table_name to point to
the actual table name instead.
Added --skip-test-db option to mysql_install_db. If specified, no test
database created and relevant grants issued.
Removed --skip-auth-anonymous-user option of mysql_install_db. Now it is
covered by --skip-test-db.
Dropped some Debian patches that did the same.
Removed unused make_win_bin_dist.1, make_win_bin_dist and
mysql_install_db.pl.in.
ALTER TABLE ... ADD PARTITION modifies the open TABLE structure,
and sets table->need_reopen=1 to reset these modifications
in case of an error.
But under LOCK TABLES the table isn't get reopened, despite need_reopen.
Fixed by reopening need_reopen tables under LOCK TABLE.
InnoDB in Debian uses utf8mb4 as default character set since
version 10.0.20-2. This leads to major pain due to keys longer
than 767 bytes.
MariaDB 10.2 (and MySQL 5.7) introduced the setting
innodb_default_row_format that is DYNAMIC by default. These
versions also changed the default values of the parameters
innodb_large_prefix=ON and innodb_file_format=Barracuda.
This would allow longer column index prefixes to be created.
The original purpose of these parameters was to allow InnoDB
to be downgraded to MySQL 5.1, which is long out of support.
Every InnoDB version since MySQL 5.5 does support operation
with the relaxed limits.
We backport the parameter innodb_default_row_format to
MariaDB 10.1, but we will keep its default value at COMPACT.
This allows MariaDB 10.1 to be configured so that CREATE TABLE
is less likely to encounter a problem with the limitation:
loose_innodb_large_prefix=ON
loose_innodb_default_row_format=DYNAMIC
(Note that the setting innodb_large_prefix was deprecated in
MariaDB 10.2 and removed in MariaDB 10.3.)
The only observable difference in the behaviour with the default
settings should be that ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC tables can be created
both in the system tablespace and in .ibd files, no matter what
innodb_file_format has been assigned to. Unlike MariaDB 10.2,
we are not changing the default value of innodb_file_format,
so ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED tables cannot be created without
changing the parameter.
Now we don't open partitions if it was explicitly cpecified.
ha_partition::m_opened_partition bitmap added to track
partitions that were actually opened.
