look for an installed plugin with the same name _and the same type_
(in case there are many plugins with the same name and different type,
which is, technically, possible for built-in plugins).
The sys_var class has the deprecation_substitute member to mark the
deprecated variables. As it's set, the server produces warnings when
these variables are used. However, the plugin has no means to utilize
that functionality.
So, the PLUGIN_VAR_DEPRECATED flag is introduced to set the
deprecation_substitute with the empty string. A non-empty string can
make the warning more informative, but there's no nice way seen to
specify it, and not that needed at the moment.
This is important since Sys_var_typelib and its descendants return
pointers to constant symbols from *_value_ptr, which are situated in
write-protected-memory.
* functions const-qualified:
- value_ptr
- session_value_ptr
- global_value_ptr
- default_value_ptr
- Sys_var_vers_asof::value_ptr
- other minor private ones
* remove C-style typecasts when it discards qualifiers
MDEV-21398 Deadlock (server hang) or assertion failure in
Diagnostics_area::set_error_status upon ALTER under lock
This failure could only happen if one locked the same table
multiple times and then did an ALTER TABLE on the table.
Major change is to change all instances of
table->m_needs_reopen= true;
to
table->mark_table_for_reopen();
The main fix for the problem was to ensure that we mark all
instances of the table in the locked_table_list and when we
reopen the tables, we first close all tables before reopening
and locking them.
Other things:
- Don't call thd->locked_tables_list.reopen_tables if there
are no tables marked for reopen. (performance)
check_valid_path() uses my_strcspn() that cannot handle invalid characters
properly. This is fixed by a big refactoring in 10.2 (MDEV-6353).
For 5.5, let's simply swap tests, because check_string_char_length()
rejects invalid characters just fine.
Description:- During server startup, the server exits if
the 'mysql.plugin' system table has any rows with empty
value for the field 'name' (plugin name).
Plugin fixed to not lock the LOCK_operations when not active.
Server fixed to lock the LOCK_plugin less - do it once per
thread and then only if a plugin was installed/uninstalled.
In wsrep_plugins_post_init we iterate all theads and if they are
galera appliers (wsrep_applier) we init session variables. However,
current_thd was not set and recent changes on session variables
require holding LOCK_gloal_system_variables mutex.
Only take LOCK_plugin for plugin system variables.
Reverted optimisation that was originally done for session tracker: it
makes much less sense now. Specifically only if connections would want to
track plugin session variables changes and these changes would actually
happen frequently. If this ever becomes an issue, there're much better
ways to optimise this workload.
Part of MDEV-14984 - regression in connect performance
When enabling system variables tracker, make a copy of
global_system_variables.session_track_system_variables
under LOCK_global_system_variables. This protects from concurrent variable
updates and potential freed memory access, as well as from variable
reconstruction (which was previously protected by LOCK_plugin).
We can also use this copy as a session variable pointer, so that we don't
have to allocate memory and reconstruct it every time it is referenced.
For this very reason we don't need buffer_length stuff anymore.
As well as don't we need to take LOCK_plugin early in ::enable().
Unified ::parse_var_list() to acquire LOCK_plugin unconditionally.
For no apparent reason it wasn't previously acquired for global
variable update.

main.derived_cond_pushdown: Move all 10.3 tests to the end,
trim trailing white space, and add an "End of 10.3 tests" marker.
Add --sorted_result to tests where the ordering is not deterministic.
main.win_percentile: Add --sorted_result to tests where the
ordering is no longer deterministic.
