the reason for the failure is that io thread passes through a sequence of state
changes before it eventually got stuck at the expect running state as NO.
It's unreasonble to wait for the running status while the whole idea of the test is
to get to the IO thread error.
Fixed with changing the waiting condition.
Many dump threads can exist due to a way the new version of mtr governs suites.
For this immediate problem the test is refined not to use I_S but rather to reconnect
explicitly with preserving logics of a an old target bug fixes verification.
Pull out some of unpack_dirname() into normalize_dirname(); this
new function does not expand "~" to the home directory. Use this
function in unpack_dirname(), and use it during init_default_directories()
to remove duplicate entries without losing track of which directory
is a user's home dir.
Range scan in descending order for c <= <col> <= c type of
ranges was ignoring the DESC flag.
However some engines like InnoDB have the primary key parts
as a suffix for every secondary key.
When such primary key suffix is used for ordering ignoring
the DESC is not valid.
But we generally would like to do this because it's faster.
Fixed by performing only reverse scan if the primary key is used.
Removed some dead code in the process.
Post-post-push fix. The result file for rpl_rbr_to_sbr needs to be
updated. While I was there, made rpl_rbr_to_sbr clean up after itself
by reverting @@binlog_format to the value it had before the test
started.
- In QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT::read_keys_and_merge: when we got table->sort from Unique,
tell init_read_record() not to use rr_from_cache() because a) rowids are already sorted
and b) it might be that the the data is used by filesort(), which will need record rowids
(which rr_from_cache() cannot provide).
- Fully de-initialize the table->sort read in QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT::get_next(). This fixes BUG#35477.
(bk trigger: file as fix for BUG#35478).
