Fixed portability problem with bool in C programs
Moved close_thread_tables out from LOCK_thread_count mutex (safety fix)
my_sleep() -> pthread_cond_timedwait()
ETIME was returned by cond_timedwait (sic, the pre-POSIX1001b function) on
Solaris 2.6 and 2.7. pthread_cond_timedwait on Solaris returns ETIMEDOUT.
The standard requirement is that the only additional return value
of pthred_cond_timedwait compared to pthread_cond_wait is ETIMEDOUT.
Let us not bloat the application code with redundant checks,
and if we're ever to work on a platform that returns a non-standard
value, we should write a wrapper for that platform (like we do, e.g., for
Windows).
Fix for yaSSL link failures with Forte Developer 7, MIPSpro Compilers, Compaq C++.
These compilers have problem with implicit template instantiation in archives
(libyassl.a, libtaocrypt.a). Instantiate templates explicitly.
Fix for yaSSL link failure on powermacg5 (gcc 3.3). When -O3 is specified gcc inlines
__cxa_pure_virtual. This is wrong behavior, __cxa_pure_virtual must never be inlined.
Approximative, because it's using our binlogging way (what we call "query"-level) and this is not as good as record-level binlog (5.1) would be. It imposes several
limitations to routines, and has caveats (which I'll document, and for which the server will try to issue errors but that is not always possible).
Reason I don't propagate caller info to the binlog as planned is that on master and slave
users may be different; even with that some caveats would remain.
s/sleep/safe_sleep (thread safe); sleep 0/1/2/3/4/5/5/5 (get slave less late);
no message on error log (deadlock is too common sometimes), a global counter
instead (SHOW STATUS LIKE 'slave_retried_transactions').
Plus a fix for libmysql/Makefile.shared
in slave SQL thread: if a transaction fails because of InnoDB deadlock or innodb_lock_wait_timeout exceeded,
optionally retry the transaction a certain number of times (new variable --slave_transaction_retries).
we store 7 bytes (1 + 2*3) in every Query_log_event.
In the future if users want binlog optimized for small size and less safe,
we could add --binlog-no-charset (and binlog-no-sql-mode etc): charset info
is something by design optional (even if for now we don't offer possibility to disable it):
it's not a binlog format change.
We try to reduce the number of get_charset() calls in the slave SQL thread to a minimum
by caching the charset read from the previous event (which will often be equal to the one of the current event).
We don't use SET ONE_SHOT for charset-aware repl (we still do for timezones, will be fixed later).
No more errors if one changes the global value of charset vars on master or slave
(as we log charset info in all Query_log_event).
Not fixing Load_log_event as it will be rewritten soon by Dmitri.
Testing how mysqlbinlog behaves in rpl_charset.test.
mysqlbinlog needs to know where charset file is (to be able to convert a charset number found
in binlog (e.g. in User_var_log_event) to a charset name); mysql-test-run needs to pass
the correct value for this option to mysqlbinlog.
Many result udpates (adding charset info into every event shifts log_pos in SHOW BINLOG EVENTS).
Roughly the same job is to be done for timezones :)
