Storage engine independent support for column compression.
TINYBLOB, BLOB, MEDIUMBLOB, LONGBLOB, TINYTEXT, TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, LONGTEXT,
VARCHAR and VARBINARY columns can be compressed.
New COMPRESSED column attribute added:
COMPRESSED[=<compression_method>]
System variables added:
column_compression_threshold
column_compression_zlib_level
column_compression_zlib_strategy
column_compression_zlib_wrap
Status variables added:
Column_compressions
Column_decompressions
Limitations:
- the only supported method currently is zlib
- CSV storage engine stores data uncompressed on-disk even if COMPRESSED
attribute is present
- it is not possible to create indexes over compressed columns.
Benefits of this patch:
- Removed a lot of calls to strlen(), especially for field_string
- Strings generated by parser are now const strings, less chance of
accidently changing a string
- Removed a lot of calls with LEX_STRING as parameter (changed to pointer)
- More uniform code
- Item::name_length was not kept up to date. Now fixed
- Several bugs found and fixed (Access to null pointers,
access of freed memory, wrong arguments to printf like functions)
- Removed a lot of casts from (const char*) to (char*)
Changes:
- This caused some ABI changes
- lex_string_set now uses LEX_CSTRING
- Some fucntions are now taking const char* instead of char*
- Create_field::change and after changed to LEX_CSTRING
- handler::connect_string, comment and engine_name() changed to LEX_CSTRING
- Checked printf() related calls to find bugs. Found and fixed several
errors in old code.
- A lot of changes from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING, especially related to
parsing and events.
- Some changes from LEX_STRING and LEX_STRING & to LEX_CSTRING*
- Some changes for char* to const char*
- Added printf argument checking for my_snprintf()
- Introduced null_clex_str, star_clex_string, temp_lex_str to simplify
code
- Added item_empty_name and item_used_name to be able to distingush between
items that was given an empty name and items that was not given a name
This is used in sql_yacc.yy to know when to give an item a name.
- select table_name."*' is not anymore same as table_name.*
- removed not used function Item::rename()
- Added comparision of item->name_length before some calls to
my_strcasecmp() to speed up comparison
- Moved Item_sp_variable::make_field() from item.h to item.cc
- Some minimal code changes to avoid copying to const char *
- Fixed wrong error message in wsrep_mysql_parse()
- Fixed wrong code in find_field_in_natural_join() where real_item() was
set when it shouldn't
- ER_ERROR_ON_RENAME was used with extra arguments.
- Removed some (wrong) ER_OUTOFMEMORY, as alloc_root will already
give the error.
TODO:
- Check possible unsafe casts in plugin/auth_examples/qa_auth_interface.c
- Change code to not modify LEX_CSTRING for database name
(as part of lower_case_table_names)
- Removing the "diff_if_only_endspace_difference" argument from
MY_COLLATION_HANDLER::strnncollsp(), my_strnncollsp_simple(),
as well as in the function template MY_FUNCTION_NAME(strnncollsp)
in strcoll.ic
- Removing the "diff_if_only_space_different" from ha_compare_text(),
hp_rec_key_cmp().
- Adding a new function my_strnncollsp_padspace_bin() and reusing
it instead of duplicate code pieces in my_strnncollsp_8bit_bin(),
my_strnncollsp_latin1_de(), my_strnncollsp_tis620(),
my_strnncollsp_utf8_cs().
- Adding more tests for better coverage of the trailing space handling.
- Removing the unused definition of HA_END_SPACE_ARE_EQUAL
function if we are doing comparisons in the fractal tree, so that case-insensitivities
get resolved. Comparisons done inside the handlerton are unaffected.
BOOL->bool
FALSE->false
TRUE->true
u_int*_t->uint*_t
Also poisoned all of the variables
