Remove --loose-skip-innodb from startup options
This is a simple backport of change done in WL #5349
Same as shown as "temporary fix", cherry picked to -mtr branch
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
The default storage engine is changed from MyISAM to
InnoDB, in all builds except for the embedded server.
In addition, the following system variables are
changed:
* innodb_file_per_table is enabled
* innodb_strict_mode is enabled
* innodb_file_format_name_update is changed
to 'Barracuda'
The test suite is changed so that tests that do not
explicitly include the have_innodb.inc are run with
--default-storage-engine=MyISAM. This is to ease the
transition, so that most regression tests are run
with the same engine as before.
Some tests are disabled for the embedded server
regression test, as the output of certain statements
will be different that for the regular server
(i.e SELECT @@default_storage_engine). This is to
ease transition.
This patch aims at moving some rpl tests to be run on a daily
basis instead of running on a per push basis. To accomplish such
goal the following modifications are proposed:
- MTR: added --skip-test-list cli parameter
This option allows the user to specify more than one
disabled.def file, for example:
perl mtr --skip-test-list=list1.list --skip-test-list=list2.list
- Added collections/disabled-per-push.list
This file lists the test cases that should be disabled per
push.
- Changed mysql-test/collections/default.push
Added --skip-test-list=collections/disabled-per-push.list
to rpl_binlog_row, ps_row and n_mix runs.
- Changed mysql-test/collections/default.daily
Added rpl_binlog_row run (since it is partially run per push we
should run it fully on a daily basis).
MTR will ignore fully qualified test name entries in disabled.def
lists. Therefore, it would still run the test case, even if it is
listed.
This patch fix this by extending the check when marking the test
case as disabled to take into consideration not only the cases that
contain the simple test name but also those that contain fully
qualified test names.
(make relies GNU extentions). The patch was partially
backport from 6.0.
Original comment:
bug#30708: make relies GNU extensions. Now that we no longer use
BitKeeper we can safely remove the SCCS handling with no loss of
functionality.
they are ignored to a new test suite "innodb_plugin".
Remove a hack in mtr that was deployed to run the builtin InnoDB tests against
the InnoDB Plugin. Also detect if a test is an 'innodb plugin test' and if so
then transparently replace the builtin InnoDB with the InnoDB Plugin.
Corrected some packaging bugs:
- install mysqlservices library
- install libmysqlclient_r.so.{16,16.0.0} as links
to libmysqlclient.so
- install libmysqld-debug.a
- install my_safe_process, my_safe_kill and
symlinks to mysql-test-run.pl (mtr, mysql-test-run)
into correct place ${INSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR}
