mysqlbinlog prints all row-based events of a single statement as a
single "BINLOG" statement containing the concatenation of those events.
Big (i.e. >64k) concatenations of row-based events
(e.g. Write_rows_log_event) caused mysqlbinlog's IO_CACHE to overflow
to a temporary file but the IO_CACHE had not been inited with
open_cached_file(), so it tried to create a temporary file in
an uninitialized directory (thus failing to create, then to write;
some OS errors were printed, and it finally segfaulted).
After fixing this, it appeared that mysqlbinlog was printing only
a piece of big concatenations of row-based events (it printed
at most the size of the IO_CACHE's buffer i.e. 64k); that caused data
loss at restore. We fix and test that.
Last, mysqlbinlog's printouts looked a bit strange with the informative
header (#-prefixed) of groupped Rows_log_event all on one line,
so we insert \n. After that, a small bug in the --hexdump code appeared
(only if the string to hex-print had its length a multiple of 16),
we fix it.
Removed a lot of compiler warnings
Removed not used variables, functions and labels
Initialize some variables that could be used unitialized (fatal bugs)
%ll -> %l
- Removed not used variables and functions
- Added #ifdef around code that is not used
- Renamed variables and functions to avoid conflicts
- Removed some not used arguments
Fixed some class/struct warnings in ndb
Added define IS_LONGDATA() to simplify code in libmysql.c
I did run gcov on the changes and added 'purecov' comments on almost all lines that was not just variable name changes
Problem: mysqlbinlog_base64 failed sporadically.
Reason: Missing "flush logs" before running $MYSQL_BINLOG,
which could start dumping the log file before server
has finished writting into it.
Fix:
- implementing --force-if-open option to "mysqlbinlog"
- adding --disable-force-if-open to make $MYSQL_BINLOG
fail on non-closed log files, to garantee that nobody
will forget "flush logs" in the future.
- adding "flush logs" into all affected tests.
- Windows opens stdin in text mode by default. Certain characters
such as CTRL-Z are interpeted as events and the read() method
will stop. CTRL-Z is the EOF marker in Windows. to get past this
you have to open stdin in binary mode. Setmode() is used to set
stdin in binary mode. Errors on setting this mode result in
halting the function and printing an error message to stderr.
Problem: when loading mysqlbinlog dumps, CREATE PROCEDURE having semicolons
in their bodies failed.
Fix: Using safe delimiter "/*!*/;" to dump log entries.
Moved .progress files into the log directory
Moved 'cluster' database tables into the MySQL database, to not have 'cluster' beeing a reserved database name
Fixed bug where mysqld got a core dump when trying to use a table created by MySQL 3.23
Fixed some compiler warnings
Fixed small memory leak in libmysql
Note that this doesn't changeset doesn't include the new mysqldump.c code required to run some tests. This will be added when I merge 5.0 to 5.1
(Mostly in DBUG_PRINT() and unused arguments)
Fixed bug in query cache when used with traceing (--with-debug)
Fixed memory leak in mysqldump
Removed warnings from mysqltest scripts (replaced -- with #)
crash for, e.g., NDB):
Before, mysqlbinlog printed table map events as a separate statement, so
when executing the event, the opened table was subsequently closed
when the statement ended. Instead, the row-based events that make up
a statement are now printed as *one* BINLOG statement, which means
that the table maps and the following *_rows_log_event events are
executed fully before the statement ends.
Changing implementation of BINLOG statement to be able to read the
emitted format, which now consists of several chunks of BASE64-encoded
data.
when calling a SP from C API"
The bug was caused by lack of checks for misuse in mysql_real_query.
A stored procedure always returns at least one result, which is the
status of execution of the procedure itself.
This result, or so-called OK packet, is similar to a result
returned by INSERT/UPDATE/CREATE operations: it contains the overall
status of execution, the number of affected rows and the number of
warnings. The client test program attached to the bug did not read this
result and ivnoked the next query. In turn, libmysql had no check for
such scenario and mysql_real_query was simply trying to send that query
without reading the pending response, thus messing up the communication
protocol.
The fix is to return an error from mysql_real_query when it's called
prior to retrieval of all pending results.
