It is not possible to prevent the server from starting if a mandatory
built-in plugin fails to start. This can in some cases lead to data
corruption when the old table name space suddenly is used by a different
storage engine.
A boolean command line option in the form of --foobar is automatically
created for every existing plugin "foobar". By changing this command line
option from a boolean to a tristate { OFF, ON, FORCE } it is possible to
specify the plugin loading policy for each plugin.
The behavior is specified as follows:
OFF = Disable the plugin and start the server
ON = Enable the plugin and start the server even if an error occurrs
during plugin initialization.
FORCE = Enable the plugin but don't start the server if an error occurrs
during plugin initialization.
- Fix problem with for example ./mtr --timer, caused by new version of "Getopt::Long"
- Evaluating the "$opt" variable as a string, returns the name of the parameter
to be modified instead of "Getopt::Long::Callback" which is the class name
The test reacted on the way how mtr orders arguments for the server
that are gathered from different source. It appeared that the opt-file
options were parsed before those that supplied to mtr via its command
line. In effect, the opt-file preferences got overriden by the command
line and some tests, like no-threads, were caught by surprise: a test
expects an option value that had been "hardcoded" into its opt-file
but gets another one.
This server options ordering problem exists on in the new rpl trees
mtr. In option of the author of this patch, the opt-file shall be
considered as having the highest preference weight. The opt-file is
merely a part of the header of a test, namely a part that can not be
technically deployed along the test file.
It's unnatural for the test writer to provide both the opt file value
and a guard that guarantees the value will be set on in the run time.
It's logical to provide either one: the option and its value or the
guard.
Fixed with relocating parse of the opt file to be the last among
sources of the sever's options.
A side effect: fixing a small problem of resetting the suite options
at time the opt file starts parsing.
A side effect: main.log_bin_trust_function_creators_func is disabled to
be re-enabled with the fixes for bug#41003 will be merged from the main trees.
1. mysqltest.cc - added flush to log file after each executed command in a testcase.
2. mtr shows 20 last lines from test case log file if timeout reached.
3. Optimizing the code by Magnus review.
4. It is partially fix bug#40150
