release a dirty page in the middle of a mini-transaction. Replace the code
with an assertion that checks for this condition.
Original svn revision was: r6330.
Silence the UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG assertion failure while upgrading old data files
to multiple rollback segments during server startup. Because the upgrade
takes place while InnoDB is running a single thread, we can safely ignore the
latching order checks without fearing deadlocks.
innobase_start_or_create_for_mysql(): Set srv_is_being_started = FALSE
only after trx_sys_create_rsegs() has completed.
sync_thread_add_level(): If srv_is_being_started, ignore latching order
violations for SYNC_TRX_SYS_HEADER and SYNC_IBUF_BITMAP.
Create all the non-IO threads after creating the extra rollback segments.
Patch originally from Marko with some additions by Sunny.
This patch was originally developed by Vladislav Vaintroub.
The main changes are:
* Use TryEnterCriticalSection in os_fast_mutex_trylock().
* Use lightweight condition variables on Vista or later Windows;
but fall back to events on older Windows, such as XP.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
bug# 52102 InnoDB Plugin shows performance drop compared to InnoDB
on Windows
bug# 53204 os_fastmutex_trylock is implemented incorrectly on Windows

Fix warnings flagged by the new warning option -Wunused-but-set-variable
that was added to GCC 4.6 and that is enabled by -Wunused and -Wall. The
option causes a warning whenever a local variable is assigned to but is
later unused. It also warns about meaningless pointer dereferences.
Remove the pure attribute from a function. The function doesn't qualify as
a pure function because it has a side-effect (modifies its parameter). Add
a clarifying comment to another function's declaration.
Backport fixes from ndb: Rework the constructors of some static
object's to not call dbug functions since the constructors will
be called before main, and consequently, before the dbug library
is initialized.
to the autotools option mysql-maintainer-mode. This option is
intended to set a few flags that should be activated by anyone
doing MySQL development, regardless of the build type. Also, the
flags are only set by the very end of the platform checks as
to not disturb fragile checks.
This change is for performance optimization.
Fixed the performance schema instrumentation interface as follows:
- simplified mysql_unlock_mutex()
- simplified mysql_unlock_rwlock()
- simplified mysql_cond_signal()
- simplified mysql_cond_broadcast()
Changed the get_thread_XXX_locker apis to have one extra parameter,
to provide memory to the instrumentation implementation.
This API change allows to use memory provided by the caller,
to avoid having to use thread local storage.
Using this extra parameter will be done in a separate fix,
this change is for the interface only.
Adjusted all the code and unit tests accordingly.
Although the C standard mandates that sprintf return the number
of bytes written, some very ancient systems (i.e. SunOS 4)
returned a pointer to the buffer instead. Since these systems
are not supported anymore and are hopefully long dead by now,
simply remove the portability wrapper that dealt with this
discrepancy. The autoconf check was causing trouble with GCC.
Introduce a MySQL maintainer/developer mode that enables
a set of warning options for the C/C++ compiler. This mode
is intended to help improve the overall quality of the code.
The warning options are:
C_WARNINGS="-Wall -Wextra -Wunused -Wwrite-strings -Werror"
CXX_WARNINGS="$C_WARNINGS -Wno-unused-parameter"
Since -Wall is essentially a moving target, autoconf checks
are not run with warning options enabled, in particualr -Werror.
This decision might be revisited in the future. The patch also
fixes a mistake in the makefiles, where automake CXXFLAGS would
be set to CFLAGS.
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
The atomic operations implementation on 5.1 has a few problems,
which might cause tests to abort randomly. Since no code in 5.1
uses atomic operations, simply remove the code.
Merge up to sunny.bains@oracle.com-20100625081841-ppulnkjk1qlazh82 .
There are 8 more changesets in mysql-5.1-innodb, but PB2 shows a
failure for a test added in one of them. If that is resolved quickly
then those 8 more changesets will be merged too.
