* rotation of `VERSIONING` partitions by record count, time period;
* rotation is multi-threaded;
* conventional subpartitions as bottom level for versioned partitions;
* `DEFAULT` keyword selects first `VERSIONING` partition;
* ALTER TABLE ADD/DROP partition;
* REBUILD PARTITION basic operation.
* sys fields are NULL by default (with exceptions, see comment about NOT_NULL_FLAG in #77);

DROP [TEMPORARY] SEQUENCE [IF EXISTS] sequence_names
Missing features
- SETVAL(value,sequence_name), to be used with replication.
- Check replication, including checking that sequence tables are marked
not transactional.
- Check that a commit happens for NEXT VALUE that changes table data (may
already work)
- ALTER SEQUENCE. ANSI SQL version of setval.
- Share identical sequence entries to not add things twice to table list.
- testing insert/delete/update/truncate/load data
- Run and fix Alibaba sequence tests (part of mysql-test/suite/sql_sequence)
- Write documentation for NEXT VALUE / PREVIOUS_VALUE
- NEXTVAL in DEFAULT
- Ensure that NEXTVAL in DEFAULT uses database from base table
- Two NEXTVAL for same row should give same answer.
- Oracle syntax sequence_table.nextval, without any FOR or FROM.
- Sequence tables are treated as 'not read constant tables' by SELECT; Would
be better if we would have a separate list for sequence tables so that
select doesn't know about them, except if refereed to with FROM.
Other things done:
- Improved output for safemalloc backtrack
- frm_type_enum changed to Table_type
- Removed lex->is_view and replaced with lex->table_type. This allows
use to more easy check if item is view, sequence or table.
- Added table flag HA_CAN_TABLES_WITHOUT_ROLLBACK, needed for handlers
that want's to support sequences
- Added handler calls:
- engine_name(), to simplify getting engine name for partition and sequences
- update_first_row(), to be able to do efficient sequence implementations.
- Made binlog_log_row() global to be able to call it from ha_sequence.cc
- Added handler variable: row_already_logged, to be able to flag that the
changed row is already logging to replication log.
- Added CF_DB_CHANGE and CF_SCHEMA_CHANGE flags to simplify
deny_updates_if_read_only_option()
- Added sp_add_cfetch() to avoid new conflicts in sql_yacc.yy
- Moved code for add_table_options() out from sql_show.cc::show_create_table()
- Added String::append_longlong() and used it in sql_show.cc to simplify code.
- Added extra option to dd_frm_type() and ha_table_exists to indicate if
the table is a sequence. Needed by DROP SQUENCE to not drop a table.
Also, implement MDEV-11027 a little differently from 5.5 and 10.0:
recv_apply_hashed_log_recs(): Change the return type back to void
(DB_SUCCESS was always returned).
Report progress also via systemd using sd_notifyf().
it was race condition prone. instead use either a pair of my_delete()
calls with already resolved paths, or a safe high-level function
my_handler_delete_with_symlink(), like MyISAM and Aria already do.
TOCTOU bug. The path is checked to be valid, symlinks are resolved.
Then the resolved path is opened. Between the check and the open,
there's a window when one can replace some path component with a
symlink, bypassing validity checks.
Fix: after we resolved all symlinks in the path, don't allow open()
to resolve symlinks, there should be none.
Compared to the old MyISAM/Aria code:
* fastpath. Opening of not-symlinked files is just one open(),
no fn_format() and lstat() anymore.
* opening of symlinked tables doesn't do fn_format() and lstat() either.
it also doesn't to realpath() (which was lstat-ing every path
component), instead if opens every path component with O_PATH.
* share->data_file_name stores realpath(path) not readlink(path). So,
SHOW CREATE TABLE needs to do lstat/readlink() now (see ::info()),
and certain error messages (cannot open file "XXX") show the real
file path with all symlinks resolved.
* rename to "keyread" (to avoid conflicts with tokudb),
* change from bool to uint and store the keyread index number there
* provide a bool accessor to check if keyread is enabled
