The idea of the patch
is that every cursor gets its own lock id for table level locking.
Thus cursors are protected from updates performed within the same
connection. Additionally a list of transient (must be closed at
commit) cursors is maintained and all transient cursors are closed
when necessary. Lastly, this patch adds support for deadlock
timeouts to TLL locking when using cursors.
+ post-review fixes.
Now we use TABLE::timestamp_field_type instead of
TABLE::timestamp_default_now/on_update_now for determining
if we should auto-set value of TIMESTAMP field during this operation.
We are also use Field_timestamp::set_time() instead of
handler::update_timestamp().
