Added protocol::flush() for easier embedded-server code
Increase block allocation variables a bit as they where a bit too small for MySQL 4.1
Added option --silent to client_test
Statements":
- fix a couple of net->buff overruns in libmysql,
- check in the server that statement parameter count is less than
65535 (maximum value supported by prepared statements protocol).
now mysql_server_init is called from mysql_init with fake parameters
mysql_once_init code included to mysql_server_init.
embedded-specific initialization is in init_embedded_server function
client capabilities included into libmysqld
some API methods became "virtual"
lots of duplicated code removed
IMHO all the above made library's code way more pleasant to look at, didn't it?
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
Extended max_allowed_packet for clients to 1G
Fixed bug in sending compressed rows >= 16M
Fix bug in skiping too long packets from clients.
Added checking of wrong command number sent by client.
Changed long packat handling to check for packets of length 0xffffff.
This does however break packet handling for older clients.
If you are using packets >= 16M then you need to upgrade client and server
after this patch.
Warning handling and initial prepared statement handling (last not complete yet)
Changed a lot of functions that returned 0/1 to my_bool type.
GRANT handling now uses read/write locks instead of mutex
Change basic net functions to use THD instead of NET
(needed for 4.1 protocol)
Use my_sprintf instead of sprintf() + strlen()
Added alloc_query() to be able to chare query initialization code with
prepared statements.
Cleanup handling of SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS and SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()
Note that the following test fails (will be fixed ASAP):
sub_select, union, rpl_rotate_logs and rpl_mystery22
Improve mysql-test to be more robust.
Fix that GRANT doesn't delete SSL options
Change innobase_flush_log_at_trx_commit to uint.
Don't rotate logs if we read a rotate log entry from the master.
More DBUG info for replication
Better error messages from replication
Fixed bug in replication code when connecting to 'localhost' (time was not released properly)
Block ALARM signal on Linux for signal handler thread (Fixes problem with running mysqld with --debug)
Removed warning when setting an AUTO_INCREMENT field to NULL
