similar to bug_27716, but it was stressed on in the synopsis on that there is another
side of the artifact affecting behaviour in transaction.
Fixed with deploying multi_delete::send_error() - otherwise never called - and refining its logic
to perform binlogging job if needed.
The changeset includes the following side effects:
- added tests to check bug_23333's scenarios on the mixture of tables for multi_update;
- fixes bug@30763 with two-liner patch and a test coinciding to one added for bug_23333.
Refactoring code to add parameter to pack() and unpack() functions with
purpose of indicating if data should be packed in little-endian or
native order. Using new functions to always pack data for binary log
in little-endian order. The purpose of this refactoring is to allow
proper implementation of endian-agnostic pack() and unpack() functions.
Eliminating several versions of virtual pack() and unpack() functions
in favor for one single virtual function which is overridden in
subclasses.
Implementing pack() and unpack() functions for some field types that
packed data in native format regardless of the value of the
st_table_share::db_low_byte_first flag.
The field types that were packed in native format regardless are:
Field_real, Field_decimal, Field_tiny, Field_short, Field_medium,
Field_long, Field_longlong, and Field_blob.
Before the patch, row-based logging wrote the rows incorrectly on
big-endian machines where the storage engine defined its own
low_byte_first() to be FALSE on big-endian machines (the default
is TRUE), while little-endian machines wrote the fields in correct
order. The only known storage engine that does this is NDB. In effect,
this means that row-based replication from or to a big-endian
machine where the table was using NDB as storage engine failed if the
other engine was either non-NDB or on a little-endian machine.
With this patch, row-based logging is now always done in little-endian
order, while ORDER BY uses the native order if the storage engine
defines low_byte_first() to return FALSE for big-endian machines.
In addition, the max_data_length() function available in Field_blob
was generalized to the entire Field hierarchy to give the maximum
number of bytes that Field::pack() will write.
Problem: rpl_stm_mystery22 is unstable.
Reason: At one place, the test case *should* wait until the SQL thread on the
slave receives an error, but instead it waits until the SQL thread stops. The
SQL thread may stop before the error flag is set, so that when the test case
continues to execute, the error flag is not set.
Fix: Introduce the subroutine mysql-test/include/wait_for_slave_sql_error.inc,
which waits until there is an error in the sql thread of the slave.
Re-commit: fixed one logical error and two smaller things noted by Mats.
Problem: The "regex" library written by Henry Spencer
does not support tricky character sets like UCS2.
Fix: convert tricky character sets to UTF8 before calling
regex functions.
Report claims that Seconds_behind_master behaves unexpectedly.
Code analysis shows that there is an evident flaw in that treating of FormatDescription event is wrong
so that after FLUSH LOGS on slave the Seconds_behind_master's calculation slips and incorrect
value can be reported to SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
Even worse is that the gap between the correct and incorrect deltas grows with time.
Fixed with prohibiting changes to rpl->last_master_timestamp by artifical events (any kind of).
suggestion as comments is added how to fight with lack of info on the slave side by means of
new heartbeat feature coming.
The test can not be done ealily fully determistic.
Problem: one thread could read uninitialized memory from (the stack of) another
thread.
Fix: swapped order of initializing the memory and making it available to the
other thread.
Fix: put lock around the statement that makes the memory available to the other
thread.
Fix: all fields of the struct are now initialized in the constructor, to avoid
future problems.
Problem: some valid euc-kr characters were rejected because
condition checking multi-byte tail didn't allow
multi-byte characters having the second byte in the ranges
[0x41..0x5A] and [0x61..0x7A].
Fix: allow these byte ranges for mb tails
active_mi has been reset (shutdown) at the time of quering with
SHOW SLAVE STATUS so that
at handling of SHOW an attempt to read its members segfaults.
Fixed with checking the value of active_mi before to call show_master_info()
Merely send_ok() is invoked when active_mi does not exist.
A test can not be easiely written.
Notice, there are more analogical cases in the code which require a similar
treatment (to be reported as a bug separately).
