When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.
When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9
With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.
The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.
Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to
tested manually.

Problem: add_collation did not check that cs->number is smaller
than the number of elements in the array all_charsets[],
so server could crash when loading an Index.xml file with
a collation ID greater the number of elements
(for example when downgrading from 5.5).
Fix: adding a condition to check that cs->number is not out of valid range.
As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().
include/my_no_pthread.h:
Dummy my_pthread_once() for single thread use.
include/my_pthread.h:
Declaration for new function my_pthread_once().
mysys/charset.c:
Logic in init_available_charsets() is simplified.
Using my_pthread_once() for all calls to this func.
mysys/my_winthread.c:
Windows implementation of my_pthread_once().
Testing for presence of stuff in a hash inside the function
that's filling in the hash creates chicken-and-egg type of problems.
This results in test suite failures in mysql-pe in debug mode and
adds bad initialization dependency in 5.1.
Fixed by removing the debug code.
Not all my_hash_insert() calls are checked for return value.
This patch adds appropriate checks and failure responses
where needed.
mysys/hash.c:
* Debug hook for testing failures in my_hash_insert()
"What do you mean, there's a bug? There isn't even code!"
There was some token code for plug-in variables of the SET type,
but clearly this never worked, or was subject to massive bit rot
since. Bug-fixes ... fail-safes ... tests -- fais au mieux, mon chou!
mysys/my_getopt.c:
SETs set-up should set up a default value, but no min/max bounding.
mysys/typelib.c:
fail-safe requested by serg: don't try to skip separator when we're
already at end of string.
sql/sql_plugin.cc:
check_func_set:
Initialize error_len as find_set() will only update it on error,
and we're using the value to see whether an error has occurred (!= 0),
so we'd better not have a random val in there.
value_ptr:
There's no guarantee we're handed string lengths, so play it safe!
Use prepared string lengths where possible for minimum speed gain,
otherwise determine on the fly!
The prefix --skip- didn't work on 64 bit big endian machines
because of how the value pointer was casted.
mysys/my_getopt.c:
* Use the interface! The value pointer must correspond to the type mask or it will break on big endian platforms.
Concurrent execution of statements which require non-table-level
write locks on several instances of the same table (such as
SELECT ... FOR UPDATE which uses same InnoDB table twice or a DML
statement which invokes trigger which tries to update same InnoDB
table directly and through stored function) and statements which
required table-level locks on this table (e.g. LOCK TABLE ... WRITE,
ALTER TABLE, ...) might have resulted in a deadlock.
The problem occured when a thread tried to acquire write lock
(TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE) on the table but had to wait since there was
a pending write lock (TL_WRITE, TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ) on this table
and we failed to detect that this thread already had another instance
of write lock on it (so in fact we were trying to acquire recursive
lock) because there was also another thread holding write lock on the
table (also TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE). When the latter thread released
its lock neither the first thread nor the thread trying to acquire
TL_WRITE/TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ were woken up (as table was still write
locked by the first thread) so we ended up with a deadlock.
This patch solves this problem by ensuring that thread which
already has write lock on the table won't wait when it tries
to acquire second write lock on the same table.
mysql-test/r/lock_sync.result:
Added test case for bug #45143 "All connections hang on concurrent
ALTER TABLE".
mysql-test/t/lock_sync.test:
Added test case for bug #45143 "All connections hang on concurrent
ALTER TABLE".
mysys/thr_lock.c:
Ensured that thread can acquire write lock on the table without
waiting if it already has write lock on it even if there are other
threads holding write locks on this table (this is normal situation
for, e.g., TL_WRITE_ALLOW_WRITE type of lock).
Adjusted comments to better explain why it is OK to do so and added
asserts to prevent introduction of scenarios in which this can cause
problems.
