Change of user interface to be more logical and more in line with expectations
to work similar to old-style replication.
User can now explicitly choose in CHANGE MASTER whether binlog position is
taken into account (master_gtid_pos=current_pos) or not (master_gtid_pos=
slave_pos) when slave connects to master.
@@gtid_pos is replaced by three separate variables @@gtid_slave_pos (can
be set by user, replicated GTIDs only), @@gtid_binlog_pos (read only), and
@@gtid_current_pos (a combination of the two, most recent GTID within each
domain). mysql.rpl_slave_state is renamed to mysql.gtid_slave_pos to match.
This fixes MDEV-4474.
Adjust full test suite to work with GTID.
Huge patch, mainly due to having to update .result file for all SHOW BINLOG
EVENTS and mysqlbinlog outputs, where the new GTID events pop up.
Everything was painstakingly checked to be still correct and valid .result
file updates.
table_stat -> table_stats
column_stat -> column_stats
index_stat -> index_stats
to be in line with the names of innodb statistical tables
from mysql-5.6: innodb_table_stats and innodb_index_stats.
Generalized support for auto-updated and/or auto-initialized timestamp
and datetime columns. This patch is a reimplementation of MySQL's
"WL#5874: CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as DEFAULT for DATETIME columns". In order to
ease future merges, this implementation reused few function and variable
names from MySQL's patch, however the implementation is quite different.
TODO:
The only unresolved problem in this patch is the semantics of LOAD DATA for
TIMESTAMP and DATETIME columns in the cases when there are missing or NULL
columns. I couldn't fully comprehend the logic behind MySQL's behavior and
its relationship with their own documentation, so I left the results to be
more consistent with all other LOAD cases.
The problematic test cases can be seen by running the test file function_defaults,
and observing the test case differences. Those were left on purpose for discussion.
