before being available to users. That will be the case in 4.1.4.
The "bk commit in mysqldoc" corresponding to this feature was not pushed.
Removing the 6 tests, they'll be pushed again later.
Final push. Printing some warnings at startup, as --innodb-safe-binlog requires
some other options, to work as expected.
Adding 6 new tests (3 pairs). If they fail on some platforms (so far they have been run only on my Linux),
they should be ignored for the 4.1.3 build (you can just
rm mysql-test/*/rpl_crash_*).
Now going to update doc.
Won't be pushed as is - separate email sent for internal review.
WL#1717 "binlog-innodb consistency".
Now when mysqld starts, if InnoDB does a crash recovery, we use the binlog name
and position retrieved from InnoDB (corresponding to the last transaction
successfully committed by InnoDB) to cut any rolled back transaction from
the binary log. This is triggered by the --innodb-safe-binlog option.
Provided you configure mysqld to fsync() InnoDB at every commit (using
flush_log_at_trx_commit) and to fsync() the binlog at every write
(using --sync-binlog=1), this behaviour guarantees that a master always has
consistency between binlog and InnoDB, whenever the crash happens.
6 tests to verify that it works.
Added basic per-thread time zone functionality (based on public
domain elsie-code). Now user can select current time zone
(from the list of time zones described in system tables).
All NOW-like functions honor this time zone, values of TIMESTAMP
type are interpreted as values in this time zone, so now
our TIMESTAMP type behaves similar to Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH
LOCAL TIME ZONE (or proper PostgresSQL type).
WL#1266 "CONVERT_TZ() - basic time with time zone conversion
function".
Fixed problems described in Bug #2336 (Different number of warnings
when inserting bad datetime as string or as number). This required
reworking of datetime realted warning hadling (they now generated
at Field object level not in conversion functions).
Optimization: Now Field class descendants use table->in_use member
instead of current_thd macro.
New option --sync-binlog=x (and global settable variable) which will fsync the binlog
after every x-th disk write to it. That is, if in autocommit mode, after every x-th statement
written to the binlog; if using transactions, after every x-th transaction written to the binlog.
x==0 means no fsync. x==1 is the slowest.
There is no test added for this, I have just checked that it works as --sync-binlog=1 dramatically
slows down mysqld.
Made sync-frm a global settable variable.
will disable warnings, --log-warnings will increment warning level by one, or the
level can be given as an optional argument. Default level is 1.
Changed aborted connection warning to be logged only if the level is > 1.
produce hex digits in lower case). (fixed version)
Replaced _dig_vec array with two _dig_vec_upper/_dig_vec_lower arrays.
Added extra argument to int2str function which controls case of digits you get.
Replaced lot of invocations of int2str for decimal radix with more optimized int10_to_str()
function.
Removed unused my_itoa/my_ltoa functions.
Ensured that all projects compile
Removed compiler warnings
Better setting of server_version variable.
Fix that make_win_src_distribution creates the privilege tables.
Introduced a new free blocks list. Free blocks are now re-used before
new blocks are allocated from the pool. There is a new status variable
which can be queried by "show status like key_blocks_unused".
(WL#794). This can be of interest in some recovery-from-backup scenarios, and also when you have
two databases in one mysqld, having a certain similarity and you want one db to be updated when the other is
(some sort of trigger).
Plus small fix for BUG#3568 "MySQL server crashes when built --with-debug and CHANGE MASTER +MASTER_POS_WAIT"
