(4.1 version, with post-review fixes)
The fix for another Bug (6439) limited FROM_UNIXTIME() to
TIMESTAMP_MAX_VALUE which is 2145916799 or 2037-12-01 23:59:59 GMT,
however unix timestamp in general is not considered to be limited
by this value. All dates up to power(2,31)-1 are valid.
This patch extends allowed TIMESTAMP range so, that max
TIMESTAMP value is power(2,31)-1. It also corrects
FROM_UNIXTIME() and UNIX_TIMESTAMP() functions, so that
max allowed UNIX_TIMESTAMP() is power(2,31)-1. FROM_UNIXTIME()
is fixed accordingly to allow conversion of dates up to
2038-01-19 03:14:07 UTC. The patch also fixes CONVERT_TZ()
function to allow extended range of dates.
The main problem solved in the patch is possible overflows
of variables, used in broken-time representation to time_t
conversion (required for UNIX_TIMESTAMP).
Use lazy initialization for Query_tables_list::sroutines hash.
This step should significantly decrease amount of memory consumed
by stored routines as we no longer will allocate chunk of memory
required for this HASH for each statement in routine.
Problem: SHOW CREATE TABLE printed garbage in table
name for tables having TURKISH I
(i.e. LATIN CAPITABLE LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE)
when lower-case-table-name=1.
Reason: In some cases during lower/upper conversion in utf8,
the result string can be shorter the original string
(including the above letter). Old implementation of caseup_str()
and casedn_str() didn't handle the result length properly,
assuming that length cannot change.
This fix changes the result type of cs->cset->casedn_str()
and cs->cset->caseup_str() from VOID to UINT, to return
the result length, as well as put '\0' terminator on a
proper place.
Also, my_caseup_str_utf8() and my_casedn_str_utf8() were
rewritten not to use strlen() for performance purposes.
It was done with help of adding of new functions - my_utf8_uni_no_range()
and my_uni_utf8_no_range() - for null terminated strings.

MySQL is setting the flag HA_END_SPACE_KEYS for all the keys that reference
text or varchar columns with collation different than binary.
This was done to handle correctly the situation where a lookup on such a key
may return more than 1 row because of the presence of many rows that differ
only by the amount of trailing space in the table's string column.
Inserting such values however appears to violate the unique checks on
INSERT/UPDATE. Thus that flag must not be set as it will prevent the optimizer
from choosing a faster access method.
This fix removes the setting of the HA_END_SPACE_KEYS flag.
OPTIMIZE TABLE with myisam_repair_threads > 1 performs a non-quick
parallel repair. This means that it does not only rebuild all
indexes, but also the data file.
Non-quick parallel repair works so that there is one thread per
index. The first of the threads rebuilds also the new data file.
The problem was that all threads shared the read io cache on the
old data file. If there were holes (deleted records) in the table,
the first thread skipped them, writing only contiguous, non-deleted
records to the new data file. Then it built the new index so that
its entries pointed to the correct record positions. But the other
threads didn't know the new record positions, but put the positions
from the old data file into the index.
The new design is so that there is a shared io cache which is filled
by the first thread (the data file writer) with the new contiguous
records and read by the other threads. Now they know the new record
positions.
Another problem was that for the parallel repair of compressed
tables a common bit_buff and rec_buff was used. I changed it so
that thread specific buffers are used for parallel repair.
A similar problem existed for checksum calculation. I made this
multi-thread safe too.
