Also addressed issues in bug #11745133, where we could mark a table
corrupted instead of crashing the server when found a corrupted buffer/page
if the table created with innodb_file_per_table on.
This patch adds a new client utility that enables or disables plugin
features. The utility disables or enables a plugin using values (name,
soname, and symbols) provided via a configuration file by the same name.
For example, to ENABLE the daemon_example plugin, the utility will read
the daemon_example.ini configuration file and use the values contained to
enable or disable the plugin.
CLIENT TOOLS
The fix is to backport part of revision:
- alexander.nozdrin@oracle.com-20101006150613-ls60rb2tq5dpyb5c
from mysql-5.5. In detail, we add the oracle welcome notice
header file proposed in the original patch and include/use it
in client/mysqlbinlog.cc, replacing the existing and obsolete
notice.
The types mysql_event_general/mysql_event_connection are
being cast to the incompatible type mysql_event. The way
mysql_event and the other types are designed are prone to
strict aliasing violations and can break things depending
on how compilers optimizes this code.
This patch fixes audit interface, so it confirms to strict-
aliasing rules. It introduces incompatible changes to audit
interface:
- mysql_event type has been removed;
- event_class has been removed from mysql_event_generic and
mysql_event_connection types;
- st_mysql_audit::event_notify() second argument is event_class;
- st_mysql_audit::event_notify() third argument is event of type
(const void *).
"Writing Audit Plugins" section of manual should be updated:

With this change, the index prefix column length lifted from 767 bytes
to 3072 bytes if "innodb_large_prefix" is set to "true".

The problem is that although AIX implements bzero, its prototype
is not declared by default. Since AC_CHECK_FUNC(bzero) succeeds
even though a prototype is not declared, this breaks compilation
in C++ files where a prototype is required.
The solution is to only use bzero if a prototype is also declared.
In sql_class.cc, 'row_count', of type 'ha_rows', was used as last argument for
ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD which is
"Incorrect %-.32s value: '%-.128s' for column '%.192s' at row %ld".
So 'ha_rows' was used as 'long'.
On SPARC32 Solaris builds, 'long' is 4 bytes and 'ha_rows' is 'longlong' i.e. 8 bytes.
So the printf-like code was reading only the first 4 bytes.
Because the CPU is big-endian, 1LL is 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01
so the first four bytes yield 0. So the warning message had "row 0" instead of
"row 1" in test outfile_loaddata.test:
-Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 1
+Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 0
All error-messaging functions which internally invoke some printf-life function
are potential candidate for such mistakes.
One apparently easy way to catch such mistakes is to use
ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT (from my_attribute.h).
But this works only when call site has both:
a) the format as a string literal
b) the types of arguments.
So:
func(ER(ER_BLAH), 10);
will silently not be checked, because ER(ER_BLAH) is not known at
compile time (it is known at run-time, and depends on the chosen
language).
And
func("%s", a va_list argument);
has the same problem, as the *real* type of arguments is not
known at this site at compile time (it's known in some caller).
Moreover,
func(ER(ER_BLAH));
though possibly correct (if ER(ER_BLAH) has no '%' markers), will not
compile (gcc says "error: format not a string literal and no format
arguments").
Consequences:
1) ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT is here added only to functions which in practice
take "string literal" formats: "my_error_reporter" and "print_admin_msg".
2) it cannot be added to the other functions: my_error(),
push_warning_printf(), Table_check_intact::report_error(),
general_log_print().
To do a one-time check of functions listed in (2), the following
"static code analysis" has been done:
1) replace
my_error(ER_xxx, arguments for substitution in format)
with the equivalent
my_printf_error(ER_xxx,ER(ER_xxx), arguments for substitution in
format),
so that we have ER(ER_xxx) and the arguments *in the same call site*
2) add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT to push_warning_printf(),
Table_check_intact::report_error(), general_log_print()
3) replace ER(xxx) with the hard-coded English text found in
errmsg.txt (like: ER(ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR) is replaced with
"Unknown error"), so that a call site has the format as string literal
4) this way, ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT can effectively do its job
5) compile, fix errors detected by ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT
6) revert steps 1-2-3.
The present patch has no compiler error when submitted again to the
static code analysis above.
It cannot catch all problems though: see Field::set_warning(), in
which a call to push_warning_printf() has a variable error
(thus, not replacable by a string literal); I checked set_warning() calls
by hand though.
See also WL 5883 for one proposal to avoid such bugs from appearing
again in the future.
The issues fixed in the patch are:
a) mismatch in types (like 'int' passed to '%ld')
b) more arguments passed than specified in the format.
This patch resolves mismatches by changing the type/number of arguments,
not by changing error messages of sql/share/errmsg.txt. The latter would be wrong,
per the following old rule: errmsg.txt must be as stable as possible; no insertions
or deletions of messages, no changes of type or number of printf-like format specifiers,
are allowed, as long as the change impacts a message already released in a GA version.
If this rule is not followed:
- Connectors, which use error message numbers, will be confused (by insertions/deletions
of messages)
- using errmsg.sys of MySQL 5.1.n with mysqld of MySQL 5.1.(n+1)
could produce wrong messages or crash; such usage can easily happen if
installing 5.1.(n+1) while /etc/my.cnf still has --language=/path/to/5.1.n/xxx;
or if copying mysqld from 5.1.(n+1) into a 5.1.n installation.
When fixing b), I have verified that the superfluous arguments were not used in the format
in the first 5.1 GA (5.1.30 'bteam@astra04-20081114162938-z8mctjp6st27uobm').
Had they been used, then passing them today, even if the message doesn't use them
anymore, would have been necessary, as explained above.
THAT CALL STORED PROCEDURES.
The bug was introduced by WL#4435. The problem was that if a stored
procedure generated a few result sets with different set of columns,
a new memory would be allocated after every EXECUTE for every
result set.
The fix is to introduce a new memory root in scope of MYSQL_STMT,
and to store result-set metadata in that memory root.
IF NO DNS-SERVER AVAILABLE.
The thing is that on Windows XP getnameinfo() returns WSANO_DATA
when hostname-lookup is not available. The problem was that
this error code was treated as serious error and the client
connection got rejected.
The fix is to treat all errors from getnameinfo() as not ciritical,
but add IP-address to the host cache only for EAI_NONAME (or WSANO_DATA).

- Add new "format section" in extra data segment with additional table and
column properties. This was originally introduced in 5.1.20 based MySQL Cluster
- Remove hardcoded STORAGE DISK for table and instead
output the real storage format used. Keep both TABLESPACE
and STORAGE inside same version guard.
- Implement default version of handler::get_tablespace_name() since tablespace
is now available in share and it's unnecessary for each handler to implement.
(the function could actually be removed totally now).
- Add test for combinations of TABLESPACE and STORAGE with CREATE TABLE
and ALTER TABLE
- Add test to show that 5.5 now can read a .frm file created by MySQL Cluster
7.0.22. Although it does not yet show the column level attributes, they are read.
This was a buffer overrun in do_div_mod(), overwriting the internal buffer
of auto variable 'tmp' in Item_func_int_div::val_int.
Result on windows: 'this' is set to zero, and crash.
Ran fine on other platforms (no valgrind warnings),
but this is undefined behaviour on any platform of course.
Bug#11763065 - 55730: KILL_SERVER() CALLS SETEVENT ON A NULL
HANDLE, SMEM_EVENT_CONNECT_REQUEST
Application Verifier is a Microsoft tool used for
detecting certain classes of programming errors.
In particular, MS Windows OS resource usage is
monitored for wrong usage (handles, thread local
storage, critical sections, ...)
In MySQL 5.5.x, an error was introduced where an
object on thread local storage was used before the
TLS and the object was created.
The fix has been to move the mysys initialization
to an earlier stage in the boot process when built for
Windows. For non-win builds, the init already happens
early.
Some un-tangling of calls to my_init(), my_basic_init()
and my_thread_global_init() was done. There is no
longer a need to do init in steps, so the full my_init()
is called instead of my_init_basic().
In addition, Bug#11763065 was fixed. The event handle
'smem_event_connect_request' is only created if
'opt_enable_shared_memory' is set. When killing the
server, an event was flagged on the handle
unconditionally. Added a test, so it will only be
flagged if created.
