tests fail on FreeBSD.
The patch contains of the following:
- make Instance Manager, running in the daemon mode, dump
the pid of angel-process in the special file;
- default value of angel-pid-file-name is 'mysqlmanager.angel.pid';
- if ordinary (IM) pid-file-name is specified in the configuration,
angel-pid-file-name is updated according to the following
rule: extension of the basename of pid-file-name is replaced by
'.angel.pid.
For example:
- pid-file-name: /tmp/im.pid
=> angel-pid-file-name: /tmp/im.angel.pid
- pid-file-name: /tmp/im.txt
=> angel-pid-file-name: /tmp/im.angel.pid
- pid-file-name: /tmp/5.0/im
=> angel-pid-file-name: /tmp/5.0/im.angel.pid
- add support for configuration option to customize angel
pid file name;
- fix test suite to use angel pid to kill Instance Manager
by all means if something went wrong.
Background
----------
The problem is that on some OSes (FreeBSD for one) Instance
Manager does not get SIGTERM, so can not shutdown gracefully.
Test suite wasn't able to cope with it, so this leads to the
mess in test results.
The problem should be split into two:
- fix signal handling;
- fix test suite.
This patch fixes test suite so that it will be able to kill
uncooperative Instance Manager. In order to achieve this,
test suite needs to know PID of IM Angel process.
There were two distict bugs: parse error was returned for valid
statement and that error wasn't reported to the client.
The fix ensures that EXPLAIN SELECT..INTO is accepted by parser and any
other parse error will be reported to the client.
Bug#17667: An attacker has the opportunity to bypass query logging.
This adds a new, local-only printf format specifier to our *printf functions
that allows us to print known-size buffers that must not be interpreted as
NUL-terminated "strings."
It uses this format-specifier to print to the log, thus fixing this
problem.
In the code that converts IN predicates to EXISTS predicates it is changing
the select list elements to constant 1. Example :
SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE a IN (SELECT c FROM ...)
is transformed to :
SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM ... HAVING a = c)
However there can be no FROM clause in the IN subquery and it may not be
a simple select : SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE a IN (SELECT f(..) AS
c UNION SELECT ...) This query is transformed to : SELECT ... FROM ...
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM (SELECT f(..) AS c UNION SELECT ...)
x HAVING a = c) In the above query c in the HAVING clause is made to be
an Item_null_helper (a subclass of Item_ref) pointing to the real
Item_field (which is not referenced anywhere else in the query anymore).
This is done because Item_ref_null_helper collects information whether
there are NULL values in the result. This is OK for directly executed
statements, because the Item_field pointed by the Item_null_helper is
already fixed when the transformation is done. But when executed as
a prepared statement all the Item instances are "un-fixed" before the
recompilation of the prepared statement. So when the Item_null_helper
gets fixed it discovers that the Item_field it points to is not fixed
and issues an error. The remedy is to keep the original select list
references when there are no tables in the FROM clause. So the above
becomes : SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE EXISTS (SELECT c FROM (SELECT f(..)
AS c UNION SELECT ...) x HAVING a = c) In this way c is referenced
directly in the select list as well as by reference in the HAVING
clause. So it gets correctly fixed even with prepared statements. And
since the Item_null_helper subclass of Item_ref_null_helper is not used
anywhere else it's taken out.
Supplying --skip-rpl to mysql-test-run.pl would always disable the
slaves, but those slaves may still be needed for the federated tests.
Now we only disable the slaves when they are not used by any of the
tests.
