If we have lower_case_table_names == 2 (usually on case insensitive file
systems) we sometimes make 'homedir' part of the path sent to the
handler into lowercase. So in this case HEAP engine couldn't properly
find and remove HP_SHARE, what caused the bug.
When a Windows console application that has an open console (e.g. mysqld-nt
started with the --console option) encounters certain type of errors
(like no floppy disk in a floppy drive) the OS will pop-up an
"abort/retry/ignore" dialog and block the application (depending on a
registry setting : see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/embedded/aa731206.aspx
for details).
Fixed by disabling the dialog popups for every error except a GPF and
alignment errors. This is safe to do as the actual error gets reported
(and handled) to mysqld.
- A race condition caused brief unavailablility when trying to acccess
a table.
- The unprotected variable 'grant_option' wasn't intended to alternate
during normal execution. Variable initialization moved to grant_init
a lines responsible for the alternation are removed.
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
Fix tests when InnoDB is not built-in. Innodb options would cause
mysqld to abort with an error indicating that the option is unknown.
Fix tests on Windows where mysql-test-run.pl was unable to probe
mysqld for version and variables information, caused by output
being redirected to a log file instead.
Fix compiler warnings,
Fix help output - this fixes im test failures.
Fix incomplete change of SET plugin vars to ulonglong.
Allow ER() to work without crashing when errmsg.sys has not been loaded.
provide the writable datadir for mysqld --help (for lower_case test)
sql/log.h, sql/mysqld.cc
make default binlog_format value to be 0 (for a hack of using
GET_STR for enum to continue to work)
This pads the value of CHAR columns with spaces up to full column length (according to ANSI)
It's not makde part of oracle or ansi mode yet, as this would cause a notable behaviour change.
Added uuid_short(), a generator for increasing 'unique' longlong integers (8 bytes)
Ingo's patch:
WL#2936 - Falcon & MySQL plugin interface: server variables
Added initialization for plugin string variables with their
default values.
Added deallocation of string values before a plugin and its
variables is deleted.
Added examples to plugin_example
skipped):
By moving statement end actions from Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() to
Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() they will always be executed, even if
Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() is skipped because the event originated
at the same server. This because Rows_log_event::do_update_pos() is always
executed (unless Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() failed with an error,
in which case the slave stops with an error anyway).
Adding test case.
Fixing logic to detect if inside a group. If a rotate event occured
when an initial prefix of events for a statement, but for which the
table did contain a key, last_event_start_time is set to zero, causing
rotate to end the group but without unlocking any tables. This left a
lock hanging around, which subsequently triggered an assertion when a
second attempt was made to lock the same sequence of tables.
In order to solve the above problem, a new flag was added to the relay
log info structure that is used to indicate that the replication thread
is currently executing a statement. Using this flag, the replication
thread is in a group if it is either in a statement or inside a trans-
action.
The patch also eliminates some gratuitous header file inclusions that
were not needed (and caused compile errors) and replaced them with
forward definitions.
Problem: setting/displaying @@LC_TIME_NAMES didn't distinguish between
GLOBAL and SESSION variable types - always SESSION variable
was set/shonw.
Fix: set either global or session value.
Also, "mysqld --lc-time-names" was added to set "global default" value.
