SUPER is not required to change binlog format for session
A user without SUPER privileges can change the value of the
session variable BINLOG_FORMAT, causing problems for a DBA.
This changeset requires a user to have SUPER privileges to
change the value of the session variable BINLOG_FORMAT, and
not only the global variable BINLOG_FORMAT.

Problem 1: tests often fail in pushbuild with a timeout when waiting
for the slave to start/stop/receive error.
Fix 1: Updated the wait_for_slave_* macros in the following way:
- The timeout is increased by a factor ten
- Refactored the macros so that wait_for_slave_param does the work for
the other macros.
Problem 2: Tests are often incorrectly written, lacking a
source include/wait_for_slave_to_[start|stop].inc.
Fix 2: Improved the chance to get it right by adding
include/start_slave.inc and include/stop_slave.inc, and updated tests
to use these.
Problem 3: The the built-in test language command
wait_for_slave_to_stop is a misnomer (does not wait for the slave io
thread) and does not give as much debug info in case of failure as
the otherwise equivalent macro
source include/wait_for_slave_sql_to_stop.inc
Fix 3: Replaced all calls to the built-in command by a call to the
macro.
Problem 4: Some, but not all, of the wait_for_slave_* macros had an
implicit connection slave. This made some tests confusing to read,
and made it more difficult to use the macro in circular replication
scenarios, where the connection named master needs to wait.
Fix 4: Removed the implicit connection slave from all
wait_for_slave_* macros, and updated tests to use an explicit
connection slave where necessary.
Problem 5: The macros wait_slave_status.inc and wait_show_pattern.inc
were unused. Moreover, using them is difficult and error-prone.
Fix 5: remove these macros.
Problem 6: log_bin_trust_function_creators_basic failed when running
tests because it assumed @@global.log_bin_trust_function_creators=1,
and some tests modified this variable without resetting it to its
original value.
Fix 6: All tests that use this variable have been updated so that
they reset the value at end of test.
In order to handle CHAR() fields, 8 bits were reserved for
the size of the CHAR field. However, instead of denoting the
number of characters in the field, field_length was used which
denotes the number of bytes in the field.
Since UTF-8 fields can have three bytes per character (and
has been extended to have four bytes per character in 6.0),
an extra two bits have been encoded in the field metadata
work for fields of type Field_string (i.e., CHAR fields).
Since the metadata word is filled, the extra bits have been
encoded in the upper 4 bits of the real type (the most
significant byte of the metadata word) by computing the
bitwise xor of the extra two bits. Since the upper 4 bits
of the real type always is 1111 for Field_string, this
means that for fields of length <256, the encoding is
identical to the encoding used in pre-5.1.26 servers, but
for lengths of 256 or more, an unrecognized type is formed,
causing an old slave (that does not handle lengths of 256
or more) to stop.
If a binlog file is manually replaced with a namesake directory the internal purging did
not handle the error of deleting the file so that eventually
a post-execution guards fires an assert.
Fixed with reusing a snippet of code for bug@18199 to tolerate lack of the file but no other error
at an attempt to delete it.
The same applied to the index file deletion.
The cset carries pieces of manual merging.
The bug allow multiple executing transactions working with non-transactional
to interfere with each others by interleaving the events of different trans-
actions.
Bug is fixed by writing non-transactional events to the transaction cache and
flushing the cache to the binary log at statement commit. To mimic the behavior
of normal statement-based replication, we flush the transaction cache in row-
based mode when there is no committed statements in the transaction cache,
which means we are committing the first one. This means that it will be written
to the binary log as a "mini-transaction" with just the rows for the statement.
Note that the changes here does not take effect when building the server with
HAVE_TRANSACTIONS set to false, but it is not clear if this was possible before
this patch either.
For row-based logging, we also have that when AUTOCOMMIT=1, the code now always
generates a BEGIN/COMMIT pair for single statements, or BEGIN/ROLLBACK pair in the
case of non-transactional changes in a statement that was rolled back. Note that
for the case where changes to a non-transactional table causes a rollback due
to error, the statement will now be logged with a BEGIN/ROLLBACK pair, even
though some changes has been committed to the non-transactional table.
binlog_format=mixed
Statement-based replication of DELETE ... LIMIT, UPDATE ... LIMIT,
INSERT ... SELECT ... LIMIT is not safe as order of rows is not
defined.
With this fix, we issue a warning that this statement is not safe to
replicate in statement mode, or go to row-based mode in mixed mode.
Note that we may consider a statement as safe if ORDER BY primary_key
is present. However it may confuse users to see very similiar statements
replicated differently.
Note 2: regular UPDATE statement (w/o LIMIT) is unsafe as well, but
this patch doesn't address this issue. See comment from Kristian

using a trig in SP
For all 5.0 and up to 5.1.12 exclusive, when a stored routine or
trigger caused an INSERT into an AUTO_INCREMENT column, the
generated AUTO_INCREMENT value should not be written into the
binary log, which means if a statement does not generate
AUTO_INCREMENT value itself, there will be no Intvar event (SET
INSERT_ID) associated with it even if one of the stored routine
or trigger caused generation of such a value. And meanwhile, when
executing a stored routine or trigger, it would ignore the
INSERT_ID value even if there is a INSERT_ID value available set
by a SET INSERT_ID statement.
Starting from MySQL 5.1.12, the generated AUTO_INCREMENT value is
written into the binary log, and the value will be used if
available when executing the stored routine or trigger.
Prior fix of this bug in MySQL 5.0 and prior MySQL 5.1.12
(referenced as the buggy versions in the text below), when a
statement that generates AUTO_INCREMENT value by the top
statement was executed in the body of a SP, all statements in the
SP after this statement would be treated as if they had generated
AUTO_INCREMENT by the top statement. When a statement that did
not generate AUTO_INCREMENT value by the top statement but by a
function/trigger called by it, an erroneous Intvar event would be
associated with the statement, this erroneous INSERT_ID value
wouldn't cause problem when replicating between masters and
slaves of 5.0.x or prior 5.1.12, because the erroneous INSERT_ID
value was not used when executing functions/triggers. But when
replicating from buggy versions to 5.1.12 or newer, which will
use the INSERT_ID value in functions/triggers, the erroneous
value will be used, which would cause duplicate entry error and
cause the slave to stop.
The patch for 5.1 fixed it to ignore the SET INSERT_ID value when
executing functions/triggers if it is replicating from a master
of buggy versions, another patch for 5.0 fixed it not to generate
the erroneous Intvar event.
Problem: in mixed and statement mode, a query that refers to a
system variable will use the slave's value when replayed on
slave. So if the value of a system variable is inserted into a
table, the slave will differ from the master.
Fix: mark statements that refer to a system variable as "unsafe",
meaning they will be replicated by row in mixed mode and produce a warning
in statement mode. There are some exceptions: some variables are actually
replicated. Those should *not* be marked as unsafe.
BUG#34732: mysqlbinlog does not print default values for auto_increment variables
Problem: mysqlbinlog does not print default values for some variables,
including auto_increment_increment and others. So if a client executing
the output of mysqlbinlog has different default values, replication will
be wrong.
Fix: Always print default values for all variables that are replicated.
I need to fix the two bugs at the same time, because the test cases would
fail if I only fixed one of them.
Problem: mysqlbinlog does not free memory if an error happens.
Fix: binlog-processing functions do not call exit() anymore. Instead, they
print an error and return an error code. Error codes are propagated all
the way back to main, and all allocated memory is freed on the way.
Main problem: mysql 5.1 cannot read binlogs from 4.1.
Subproblem 1: There is a mistake in sql_ex_info::init. The read_str()
function updates its first argument to point to the next character to
read. However, it is applied only to a copy of the buffer pointer, so the
real buffer pointer is not updated.
Fix 1: do not take a copy of the buffer pointer. The copy was needed
because sql_ex_info::init does not use the const attribute on some of its
arguments. So we add the const attribute, too.
Subproblem 2: The first BINLOG statement is asserted to be a
FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_LOG_EVENT, but 4.1 binlogs begin with START_EVENT_V3.
Fix 2: allow START_EVENT_V3 too.
Problem: Replication fails when master is mysql-5.1-wl2325-5.0-drop6 and
slave is mysql-5.1-new-rpl. The reason is that, in
mysql-5.1-wl2325-5.0-drop6, the event type id's were different than in
mysql-5.1-new-rpl.
Fix (in mysql-5.1-new-rpl):
(1) detect that the server that generated the events uses the old
format, by checking the server version of the format_description_log_event
This patch recognizes mysql-5.1-wl2325-5.0-drop6p13-alpha,
mysql-5.1-wl2325-5.0-drop6, mysql-5.1-wl2325-5.0, mysql-5.1-wl2325-no-dd.
(2) if the generating server is old, map old event types to new event
types using a permutation array.
I've also added a test case which reads binlogs for four different
versions.
