in a deadlock-free manner. This splits locking the global read lock in two steps.
This fixes a consequence of this bug, known as:
BUG#4953 'mysqldump --master-data may report incorrect binlog position if using InnoDB'
And a test.
Fix remaining cases of Bug #3596: fix possible races caused by an obsolete value of thd->query_length in SHOW PROCESSLIST and SHOW INNODB STATUS; this fix depends on the fact that thd->query is always set to NULL before setting it to point to a new query
DROP DATABASE now assumes RAID directories are in hex. (Bug #2627)
Don't increment 'select_full_range' and similar statistics for EXPLAIN queries. (Bug #2506)
Test in configure if pthread_key_delete() exists (to fix compile problem on SCO) (Bug #2461)
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
"EE_ error codes (EE_DELETE, EE_WRITE) end up in the binlog, making slave stop".
The problem was that during execution of the command on the master, an error
can occur (for example, not space left on device, then mysqld waits and when
there is space it completes successfully: so finally it worked but the error
EE_WRITE remains in thd->net.last_errno and thd->net.last_error).
To know if finally the command succeeded, we test the 'error' variable in
every place, and if it shows no failure we reset thd->net.last_err* using
the function THD::clear_error() which is backported from 4.1.
A new test to see if now only real errors get to the binlog (note: the test
uses "rm").
Also a bit of memory free/alloc saving in log_event.cc (do not free the whole
mem_root after every query in the slave SQL thread: we can keep the initial
block of it; which will be freed when the thread terminates).
Let MySQL 4.0 read 4.1 .frm files without 4.1 specific extensions
New variables @@rand_seed1 and @@rand_seed2 (used by replication)
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
Added bug fix from 3.23 for AIX 4.3.3 and gcc 3.x
Small change in EXCHANGE output
Propagate open-files-limit from mysqld_safe -> mysqld
Fixed speed bug in GROUP BY
Added quotes around database name in CREATE DATABASE db_name (for binary log)
Fixed bugs in my last changeset that made MySQL hard to compile.
Added mutex around some data that could cause table cache corruptions when using OPTIMIZE TABLE / REPAIR TABLE or automatic repair of MyISAM tables.
Added mutex around some data in the slave start/stop code that could cause THD linked list corruptions
Extended my_chsize() to allow one to specify a filler character.
Extend vio_blocking to return the old state (This made some usage of this function much simpler)
Added testing for some functions that they caller have got the required mutexes before calling the function.
Use setrlimit() to ensure that we can write core file if one specifies --core-file.
Added --slave-compressed-protocol
Made 2 the minimum length for ft_min_word_len
Added variables foreign_key_checks & unique_checks.
Less logging from replication code (if not started with --log-warnings)
Changed that SHOW INNODB STATUS requre the SUPER privilege
More DBUG statements and a lot of new code comments
Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
On Monty's suggestion move ha_drop_database back inside LOCK_mysql_create_db, but we release LOCK_open during it to let possible running queries complete. I tested this and it seemed to work also in complex concurrent DELETE, SELECT, DROP DATABASE, and CREATE DATABASE situations
Revert Monty's change to the positioning of ha_drop_database(): otherwise a running query on a table to be dropped in DROP DATABASE always causes the server to hang
Portability fixes for HPUX
Rename of CHECK_LOCK to IS_FREE_LOCK
Apply lower_case_table_names also to databases
Cleanup of describe code
Don't allow \ in database names
