strict aliasing violations.
Essentially, the problem is that large parts of the server were
developed in simpler times (last decades, pre C99 standard) when
strict aliasing and compilers supporting such optimizations were
rare to non-existent. Thus, when compiling the server with a modern
compiler that uses strict aliasing rules to perform optimizations,
there are several places in the code that might trigger undefined
behavior.
As evinced by some recent bugs, GCC does a somewhat good of job
misoptimizing such code, but on the other hand also gives warnings
about suspicious code. One problem is that the warnings aren't
always accurate, yet we can't afford to just shut them off as we
might miss real cases. False-positive cases are aggravated mostly
by casts that are likely to trigger undefined behavior.
The solution is to start a cleanup process focused on fixing and
reducing the amount of strict-aliasing related warnings produced
by GCC and others compilers. A good deal of noise reduction can
be achieved by just removing useless casts that are product of
historical cruft and are likely to trigger undefined behavior if
dereferenced.

mysql_upgrade was passing an non-initialized non-null tmpdir to create_temp_file() if no
--tmpdir was specified. This prevents create_temp_file() from taking the system
temporary file path and as a result mysql_upgrade was trying to open a file in a
directory that it may not have write access to.
Fixed by making sure mysql_upgrade will pass a zero length temp dir string to
create_temp_file() if no --tmpdir is specified.

"mysql_upgrade (ver 5.1) add 3 fields to mysql.proc table but does
not set values".
mysql_upgrade (ver 5.1) adds 3 fields (character_set_client,
collation_connection and db_collation) to the mysql.proc table, but
does not set any values. When we run stored procedures, which were
created with mysql 5.0, a warning is logged into the error log.
The solution to this is for mysql_upgrade to set default best guess
values for these fields. A warning is also written during upgrade, to
make the user aware that default values are set.
(backport)
mysql_upgrade script accepts --upgrade-system-tables option,
fixing only system tables in this case.

All statements executed by mysql_upgrade are binlogged and then are replicated to slave.
This will result in some errors. The report of this bug has demonstrated some examples.
Master and slave should be upgraded separately. All statements executed by
mysql_upgrade will not be binlogged.
--write-binlog and --skip-write-binlog options are added into mysql_upgrade.
These options control whether sql statements are binlogged or not.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
Dump all connection-related arguments when running mysqlcheck
from mysql_upgrade.
No test case, since the output depends on the test suite
configuration and platform.

As it turned out --fix-db-names option of the mysqlcheck suppress
the --check_upgrade option, so we have to call the mysqlcheck twice
from the mysql_upgrade.

Bug#35934 mysql_upgrade calls mysqlcheck with insufficient parameters
running on Windows
We used two OS-specific methods of looking up the executable
name, which don't work outside of those two kinds of OSes
(Linux+Solaris and Windows).
We assume that if the user ran this program with a certain
name, we can run the other sibling programs with a similar name.
(re-patch in bzr)
make sure that if builder configured with a non-standard (!= 3306)
default TCP port that value actually gets used throughout. if they
didn't configure a value, assume "use a sensible default", which
will be read from /etc/services or, failing that, from the factory
default. That makes the order of preference
- command-line option
- my.cnf, where applicable
- $MYSQL_TCP_PORT environment variable
- /etc/services (unless configured --with-tcp-port)
- default port (--with-tcp-port=... or factory default)
