Avoided exponential recursive calls of JOIN_CACHE::join_records() in the case
of non-nested outer joins.
A different solution is required to resolve this performance problem for
nested outer joins.
fix readline/libedit detection:
* search in readline/, editline/ and edit/readline/
* fix typos CMAKE_REQUIRES_LIBRARIES -> CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES
* use correct libedit API
* use different cmake variables for libedit and readline
* handler::get_auto_increment() was not expecting any errors from the storage engine.
That was wrong, errors could happen.
* ha_partition::get_auto_increment() was doing index lookups in partition under a mutex.
This was redundant (engine transaction isolation was covering that anyway)
and harmful (causing deadlocks).
MDEV-6483 - Deadlock around rw_lock_debug_mutex on PPC64
This problem affects only debug builds on PPC64.
There are at least two race conditions around
rw_lock_debug_mutex_enter and rw_lock_debug_mutex_exit:
- rw_lock_debug_waiters was loaded/stored without setting
appropriate locks/memory barriers.
- there is a gap between calls to os_event_reset() and
os_event_wait() and in such case we're supposed to pass
return value of the former to the latter.
Fixed by replacing self-cooked spinlocks with system mutexes.
These days system mutexes offer much better performance. OTOH
performance is not that critical for debug builds.
MDEV-6450 - MariaDB crash on Power8 when built with advance tool
chain
InnoDB mutex_exit() function calls __sync_test_and_set() to release
the lock. According to manual this function is supposed to create
"acquire" memory barrier whereas in fact we need "release" memory
barrier at mutex_exit().
The problem isn't repeatable with gcc because it creates
"acquire-release" memory barrier for __sync_test_and_set().
ATC creates just "acquire" barrier.
Fixed by creating proper barrier at mutex_exit() by using
__sync_lock_release() instead of __sync_test_and_set().
Don't restore the whole of thd->server_status after a routine invocation,
only restore SERVER_STATUS_CURSOR_EXISTS and SERVER_STATUS_LAST_ROW_SENT,
as --ps --embedded needs.
In particular, don't restore SERVER_STATUS_IN_TRANS.
