Several items said to be deprecated in the 4.1 manual
have never been removed. This worklog adds deprecation
warnings when these items are used, and warns the user
that the items will be removed in MySQL 5.6.
A couple of previously deprecation decision have been
reversed (see single file comments)
Problem: it is unsafe to read base64-printed events without first
reading the Format_description_log_event (FD). Currently, mysqlbinlog
cannot print the FD.
As a side effect, another bug has also been fixed: When mysqlbinlog
--start-position=X was specified, no ROLLBACK was printed. I changed
this, so that ROLLBACK is always printed.
This patch does several things:
- Format_description_log_event (FD) now print themselves in base64
format.
- mysqlbinlog is now able to print FD events. It has three modes:
--base64-output=auto Print row events in base64 output, and print
FD event. The FD event is printed even if
it is outside the range specified with
--start-position, because it would not be
safe to read row events otherwise. This is
the default.
--base64-output=always Like --base64-output=auto, but also print
base64 output for query events. This is
like the old --base64-output flag, which
is also a shorthand for
--base64-output=always
--base64-output=never Never print base64 output, generate error if
row events occur in binlog. This is
useful to suppress the FD event in binlogs
known not to contain row events (e.g.,
because BINLOG statement is unsafe,
requires root privileges, is not SQL, etc)
- the BINLOG statement now handles FD events correctly, by setting
the thread's rli's relay log's description_event_for_exec to the
loaded event.
In fact, executing a BINLOG statement is almost the same as reading
an event from a relay log. Before my patch, the code for this was
separated (exec_relay_log_event in slave.cc executes events from
the relay log, mysql_client_binlog_statement in sql_binlog.cc
executes BINLOG statements). I needed to augment
mysql_client_binlog_statement to do parts of what
exec_relay_log_event does. Hence, I did a small refactoring and
moved parts of exec_relay_log_event to a new function, which I
named apply_event_and_update_pos. apply_event_and_update_pos is
called both from exec_relay_log_event and from
mysql_client_binlog_statement.
- When a non-FD event is executed in a BINLOG statement, without
previously executing a FD event in a BINLOG statement, it generates
an error, because that's unsafe. I took a new error code for that:
ER_NO_FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT_BEFORE_BINLOG_STATEMENTS.
In order to get a decent error message containing the name of the
event, I added the class method char*
Log_event::get_type_str(Log_event_type type), which returns a
string name for the given Log_event_type. This is just like the
existing char* Log_event::get_type_str(), except it is a class
method that takes the log event type as parameter.
I also added PRE_GA_*_ROWS_LOG_EVENT to Log_event::get_type_str(),
so that names of old rows event are properly printed.
- When reading an event, I added a check that the event type is known
by the current Format_description_log_event. Without this, it may
crash on bad input (and I was struck by this several times).
- I patched the following test cases, which all contain BINLOG
statements for row events which must be preceded by BINLOG
statements for FD events:
- rpl_bug31076
While I was here, I fixed some small things in log_event.cc:
- replaced hard-coded 4 by EVENT_TYPE_OFFSET in 3 places
- replaced return by DBUG_VOID_RETURN in one place
- The name of the logfile can be '-' to indicate stdin. Before my
patch, the code just checked if the first character is '-'; now it
does a full strcmp(). Probably, all arguments that begin with a -
are already handled somewhere else as flags, but I still think it
is better that the code reflects what it is supposed to do, with as
little dependencies as possible on other parts of the code. If we
one day implement that all command line arguments after -- are
files (as most unix tools do), then we need this.
I also fixed the following in slave.cc:
- next_event() was declared twice, and queue_event was not static but
should be static (not used outside the file).
mysqldump adds the "-- Dump completed on YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss" string
to the end of output if the --comments switch is on.
The only way to suppress this line is to use --skip-comments/--compact
switch.
New switch has been added to the mysqldump client command line:
--dump-date.
For the compatibility with previous releases, by default the --dump-date
is on.
The --dump-date switch forces mysqldump to add date to the
"-- Dump completed on ..." string at the end of output.
The --skip-dump-date switch supresses the output of date string
and uses short form of that commentary: "-- Dump completed".
--skip-comments or --compact switches disable the whole commentary
as usual.
Fixed compiler warnings, errors and link errors
Fixed new bug on Solaris with gethrtime()
Added --debug-check option to all mysql clients to print errors and memory leaks
Added --debug-info to all clients. This now works as --debug-check but also prints memory and cpu usage
Add the --skip-write-binlog option, which adds NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG
to REPAIR, ANALYZE, and OPTIMIZE commands.
Use this option when these SQL commands should not be sent to
replication slaves, nor run when using the binary logs for recovery
from backup
Ramification, UNIX now uses thread, support for slaves had to be dropped and there is no need for the --use-threads flag.
Added --concurrency=0 option so that it will start at 1 and keep going up until something bad happens :)

Moved .progress files into the log directory
Moved 'cluster' database tables into the MySQL database, to not have 'cluster' beeing a reserved database name
Fixed bug where mysqld got a core dump when trying to use a table created by MySQL 3.23
Fixed some compiler warnings
Fixed small memory leak in libmysql
Note that this doesn't changeset doesn't include the new mysqldump.c code required to run some tests. This will be added when I merge 5.0 to 5.1
(Mostly in DBUG_PRINT() and unused arguments)
Fixed bug in query cache when used with traceing (--with-debug)
Fixed memory leak in mysqldump
Removed warnings from mysqltest scripts (replaced -- with #)
- Add new function 'ssl_verify_server_cert' which is used if we are
connecting to the server with SSL. It will compare the hostname in
the server's cert against the hostname that we used when connecting
to the server. Will reject the connection if hostname does not match.
- Add new option "OPT_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT" to be passed to mysql_options
which will turn on checking of servers cert.
- Add new argument "ssl-verify-server-cert" to all mysql* clients which
will activate the above option.
- Generate a new server cert with 1024 bits that has "localhost" as the server name.
Now does averaging when running iterations.
Realligned a bunch of code and continued to remove global variables.
Added CSV output along with printable.
Structures are now provided for print options so adding XML, HTML, ... should now be trivial.
Added --slave option if you are trying to syncronize around one server using the lock-directory option plus NFS.
Added options to allow you to run several concurrency runs in one call. aka --concurrency="1, 8, 64, 128"
Time collection is now done in a finer grain manner, and is linked to the sync call (doesn't count the cost of the blocked processes that are setup to run).
--engine="myisam,archive"
--number-of-rows has been removed for the time being and replaced with
option to allow you to just repeat multiple time all of the inserts you specifed with data. When number-of-rows-returns it will be instead used for averaging rows while growing concurrency.
Returned stats now has accurent row and query counts since it includes a multiple for the rows and queries added.
Parser is now a touch smarter and understands end of file issues if you have a delimiter at the end of the file.
1) Parsing now works
2) Options are safer, aka it doesn't kill the machine and it cleans up after itself
3) Option of --only-print added so that you can see what it does.
4) Tiny cleanup of the auto generate sql. A lot more needs to be done with this, for it to be very valuable. I suspect it doesn't work all that well.
5) Delimeter is now a single character. No good escaping going on.
6) You can now change which schema it is runninng against.
Now I think I can go make use of it!
Though I need to add support for a "only run this many inserts, divide by the number of clients connecting, to really test scaling"
