Fix a large amount of minor fixes to maintainer scripts and other done
downstream in the official Debian packaging.
Changes include:
38198d0b9e
> Limit check of running mysqld/mariadbd to system users (Closes: #1032047)
>
> If a random user has their own copy of mysqld/mariadbd running, the
> dpkg maintainer script should not care about it.
8116354d22
> Make error more helpful in case server restart fails (Related: #1033234)
>
> Bugs such as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1033234
> and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mariadb-10.6/+bug/2011293
> show that currently dpkg stopping on service stop/start does not have
> a very helpful error message.
8675e97202
> Complement upstream commits with more complete mysql->mariadb conversion
>
> The upstream commit 952af4a1 missed some places where 'mysql' or
> 'MySQL' can and should be converted to use 'mariadb' or 'MariaDB'.
c983613300
> Fix indentation in Debian post and pre scripts
>
> There is several misindentation inside Debian post and pre
> installation scripts. False indentation with space as indent space
> should be 2 and indentation with tabs.
>
> Adopt upstream commit 7cbb45d1 in Debian by conserving customizations
> in:
> - debian/mariadb-server.postinst
> - debian/mariadb-server.postrm
> - debian/mariadb-server.preinst
d0bcab443f
> Ensure spaces are used everywhere instead of tabs for indentation
0300a9157c
> Complement previous upstream commits to fix Shellcheck issues
>
> - Unify if/then and while/do on separate lines
> - Fix indentation to be consistent
> - Use "$()" instead of backticks for subshells
> - Exit code cannot be -1, must be 0-255
> - Remove unused variables MYCHECK and MYCHECK_PARAMS
> - Rewrite messy command-line database calls to an easier to read form
> that does exactly the same
> - Use 'command -v' test instead of 'which'
>
> With this commit, all of debian/* is Shellcheck clean.
Also
* Update mariadb.conf.d template to tell users where to create logdir
if they are not using journald
* Remove use of work 'slave'
* Add minor workaround for Debian Bug #1022994 if TMPDIR is empty
* Make start/stop in maintainer scripts correctly check mariadbd
ownership and only start/stop processes owned by root or 'mysql'
* Remove obsolete 'NO_UPDATE_BUILD_VERSION=1' as it did not affect the
RocksDB build reproducibility as previously assumed
* Run 'wrap-and-sort -av'
There is no need for a character-set-server configuration when utf8mb4
is now the server default.
Also remove the character-set-collations as its no longer required and
the uca1400_ai_ci is now the default for all character sets that support
it. ref: MDEV-25829 / MDEV-34430.
Since MDEV-25829 Change default Unicode collation to uca1400_ai_ci
there is no need to set character-set-collations explicitly as its
the default.
Further mode the change in defaults affects all character sets that
support the uca1400_ai_ci collation.
utf8mb4_general_ci has been outdated for a while and contained loosely
standardized collations.
UCA-14.0.0 has a more defined collation with multiple benefit that new
users may not immediately consider, or may assume to be default.
By defining default collation for utf8mb4 to be uc1400_ai_ci newly
created tables will have a modern standard collation.
50-mariadb_safe.cnf was only ever intended to be a reference file.
With mariadbd-safe falling into disuse in Debian since systemd became
a service it was assumed this files wasn't used except on a few old
legacy init systems. Its assumed these users will have a configuration
already set.
It is however read by the mariabackup galera-sst script. This forks
off the logger process to write the output to /dev/log, which on a
systemd service the journalctl is reading anyway.
The real harm is on containers where there is now a MariaDB operator
that runs Galera based containers. In containers there is no /dev/log,
so information gets lost.
It would be much more direct just to go straight to stdout/error
like what would happen without this configuration.
Rather than risk the galera-sst scripts moving to the [mariadbd-safe]
group name introduced in a1211a4eda, we
remove the file for cleanness.
These are mainly internal files so is a low impact change.
The few scripts/mysql*sql where renames to mariadb_* prefix
on the name.
mysql-test renamed to mariadb-test in the final packages
Renames the upgrade state file, and ensures the old
file is properly removed when `mariadb-upgrade` tool is executed.

There's no need for Debian to set config items to their
default. Left commented user, datadir and tmpdir as
these may want to be changed. lc-messages and skip-external-locks
are so infrequently set even listing them looks overly verbose.
socket left uncommented in [client-server] as various client
implementations may have different defaults compiled in.
- Include a link to the relevant KB article for more info
- Use spaced around the equal sign for better readability and so that
the examples are more aligned with the general style in the KB
- Load plugins with just the base name, the .so is optional and excess
- Remove unnecessary unused files
- Remove duplicate encryption configuration sample from sources and
re-use the identical file in RPM directory instead
- Clean away harmful "default-character-set = utf8mb4" from client config
as it is unnecassary (server enforces utf8mb4 anyway by default) and
could cause issues with mysqlbinlog and other tools (MDEV-22981).
- Update S3 plugin description to be long enough
- Remove trailing whitespace from support-files and Debian packaging.
- Clean away fixed Lintian issues
- Clean away temporary Salsa-CI fixes now that 10.5.4 is out and is fixed
- Apply wrap-and-sort -a -v
- Recommend max_allowed_packet=1G which is the same as the default client
value.
- Remove thread_concurrency removed in 10.5.
- Remove query cache, not recommended practice anymore.
- Remove binlog_*, should not recommend those too easily but rather require
the database administrator to read up on those themselves.
- Remove chroot setting, not relevant in modern container era.
- Show explicitly innodb_buffer_pool_size example as the most likely thing
a database administrator should change.
- Don't recommend rate limiting in slow log, logging once in a 1000
would not be optimal for the basic case, hence bad example.
- Install the example configs in /usr/share/mysql.
- Use correct path /run/ instead of /var/run/.
Split the big my.cnf into multiple smaller files with the same filenames
and contents as official Debian/Ubuntu packaging has.
The config contents stays the same apart from following additions
which the original MariaDB upstream configs had and probably needs
to be kept:
- lc-messages=en_US and skip-external-locking in server config
Configs the original MariaDB upstream had that are seemingly
unnecessary and thus removed:
- port=3306 removed from the client config
- log_warnings=2 removed from server config
Also adopt update-alternatives system using
mysql-common/configure-symlinks. This way it is aligned with
downstream Debian/Ubuntu packaging.
