There was two problems:
The first was the symptom, caused by bad error handling in
ha_partition. It did not handle print_error etc. when
having no partitions (when used by dummy handler).
The second was the real problem that when dropping tables
it reused the table type (storage engine) from when the lock
was asked for, not the table type that it had when gaining
the exclusive name lock. So that it tried to delete tables
from wrong storage engines.
Solutions for the first problem was to accept some handler
calls to the partitioning handler even if it was not setup
with any partitions, and also if possible fallback
to use the base handler's default functions.
Solution for the second problem was to remove the optimization
to reuse the definition from the cache, instead always check
the frm-file when holding the LOCK_open mutex
(updated with a fix for a debug print crash and better
comments as required by reviewer, and removed optimization
to avoid reading the frm-file).
REORGANIZE PARTITION
There were several problems which lead to this this,
all related to bad error handling.
1) There was several bugs preventing the ddl-log to be used for
cleaning up created files on error.
2) The error handling after the copy partition rows did not close
and unlock the tables, resulting in deletion of partitions
which were in use, which lead InnoDB to put the partition to
drop in a background queue.

WL#4144 - Lock MERGE engine children.
Committing a version of the patch merged with WL#3726
on behalf of Ingo.
Step #1: Move locking from parent to children.
MERGE children are now left in the query list of tables
after inserted there in open_tables(). So they are locked
by lock_tables() as all other tables are.
The MERGE parent does not store locks any more. It appears
in a MYSQL_LOCK with zero lock data. This is kind of a "dummy"
lock.
All other lock handling is also done directly on the children.
To protect against parent or child modifications during LOCK
TABLES, the children are detached after every statement and
attached before every statement, even under LOCK TABLES.
The children table list is removed from the query list of tables
on every detach and on close of the parent.
Step #2: Move MERGE specific functionality from SQL layer
into table handler.
Functionality moved from SQL layer (mainly sql_base.cc)
to the table handler (ha_myisammrg.cc).
Unnecessary code is removed from the SQL layer.
Step #3: Moved all MERGE specific members from TABLE
to ha_myisammrg.
Moved members from TABLE to ha_myisammrg.
Renamed some mebers.
Fixed comments.
Step #4: Valgrind and coverage testing
Valgrind did not uncover new problems.
Added purecov comments.
Added a new test for DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY options.
Changed handling of ::reset() for non-attached children.
Fixed the merge-big test.
Step #5: Fixed crashes detected during review
Changed detection when to attach/detach.
Added new tests.
Backport also the fix for Bug#44040 "MySQL allows creating a
MERGE table upon VIEWs but crashes when using it"

Bug#32082 : definition of VOID in my_global.h conflicts with Windows
SDK headers
VOID macro is now removed. Its usage is replaced with void cast.
In some cases, where cast does not make much sense (pthread_*, printf,
hash_delete, my_seek), cast is ommited.
Problem was that ha_partition::records_in_range called
records_in_range for all non pruned partitions, even if
an estimate should be given.
Solution is to only use 1/3 of the partitions (up to 10) for
records_in_range and estimate the total from this subset.
(And continue until a non zero return value from the called
partitions records_in_range is given, since 0 means no rows
will match.)

message:
Bug#15192 "fatal errors" are caught by handlers in stored procedures
The problem is that fatal errors (e.g.: out of memory) were being
caught by stored procedure exception handlers which could cause
the execution to not be stopped due to a continue handler.
The solution is to not call any exception handler if the error is
fatal and send the fatal error to the client.
get_table_share, drop_open_table
In the partition handler code, LOCK_open and share->LOCK_ha_data
are acquired in the wrong order in certain cases. When doing a
multi-row INSERT (i.e a INSERT..SELECT) in a table with auto-
increment column(s). the increments must be in a monotonically
continuous increasing sequence (i.e it can't have "holes"). To
achieve this, a lock is held for the duration of the operation.
share->LOCK_ha_data was used for this purpose.
Whenever there was a need to open a view _during_ the operation
(views are not currently pre-opened the way tables are), and
LOCK_open was grabbed, a deadlock could occur. share->LOCK_ha_data
is other places used _while_ holding LOCK_open.
A new mutex was introduced in the HA_DATA_PARTITION structure,
for exclusive use of the autoincrement data fields, so we don't
need to overload the use of LOCK_ha_data here.
A module test case has not been supplied, since the problem occurs
as a result of a race condition, and testing for this condition
is thus not deterministic. Testing for it could be done by
setting up a test case as described in the bug report.
backport for bug#44059 from mysql-pe to mysql-5.1-bugteam
Using the partition with most rows instead of first partition
to estimate the cardinality of indexes.
is reached
Problem was bad error handling, leaving some new temporary
partitions locked and initialized and some not yet initialized
and locked, leading to a crash when trying to unlock the not
yet initialized and locked partitions
Solution was to unlock the already locked partitions, and not
include any of the new temporary partitions in later unlocks
"insert into.. select * from"
When inserting into a partitioned table using 'insert into
<target> select * from <src>', read_buffer_size bytes of memory
are allocated for each partition in the target table.
This resulted in large memory consumption when the number of
partitions are high.
This patch introduces a new method which tries to estimate the
buffer size required for each partition and limits the maximum
buffer size used to maximum of 10 * read_buffer_size,
11 * read_buffer_size in case of monotonic partition functions.
