Enable functionality to have multiple background io helper threads.
This patch is based on percona contributions.
More details about this patch will be written at:
https://svn.innodb.com/innobase/MultipleBackgroundThreads
The patch essentially does the following:
expose following knobs:
innodb_read_io_threads = [1 - 64] default 1
innodb_write_io_threads = [1 - 64] default 1
deprecate innodb_file_io_threads (this parameter was relevant only on windows)
Internally it allows multiple segments for read and write IO request arrays
where one thread works on one segement.

This conversion was performed by the following command:
perl -i -e 'while(<ARGV>){if (m|^/\*{30}\**$|) {
s|\*{4}$|//**| if ++$com>1; $_ .= "\@file $ARGV\n" if $com==2}
print; if(eof){$.=0;undef $com}}' */*[ch] include/univ.i
This patch was created by running the following commands:
for i in */*[ch]; do doxygenify.pl $i; done
perl -i -pe 's#\*{3} \*/$#****/#' */*[ch]
where doxygenify.pl is
https://svn.innodb.com/svn/misc/trunk/tools/doxygenify.pl r510
Verified the consistency as follows:
(0) not too many /* in: */ or /* out: */ comments left in the code:
grep -l '/\*\s*\(in\|out\)[,:/]' */*[ch]
(1) no difference when ignoring blank lines, after stripping all
C90-style /* comments */, including multi-line ones, before and after
applying this patch:
perl -i -e 'undef $/;while(<ARGV>){s#/\*(.*?)\*/##gs;print}' */*[ch]
diff -I'^\s*$' --exclude .svn -ru TREE1 TREE2
(2) after stripping @return comments and !<, generated a diff and omitted
the hunks where /* out: */ function return comments were removed:
perl -i -e'undef $/;while(<ARGV>){s#!<##g;s#\n\@return\t.*?\*/# \*/#gs;print}'\
*/*[ch]
svn diff|
perl -e 'undef $/;$_=<>;s#\n-\s*/\* out[:,]([^\n]*?)(\n-[^\n]*?)*\*/##gs;print'
Some unintended changes were left. These will be removed in a
subsequent patch.
* Remove old Innobase copyright lines from C source files
* Add a reference to the GPLv2 license as recommended by the lawyers

[Step 12/28]
lock_get_table(), locks_row_eq_lock(), buf_page_get_mutex(): Add return
after ut_error. On Windows, ut_error is not declared as "noreturn".
Add explicit type casts when assigning ulint to byte to get rid of
"possible loss of precision" warnings.
struct i_s_table_cache_struct: Declare rows_used, rows_allocd as ulint
instead of ullint. 32 bits should be enough.
fill_innodb_trx_from_cache(), i_s_zip_fill_low(): Cast 64-bit unsigned
integers to longlong when calling Field::store(longlong, bool is_unsigned).
Otherwise, the compiler would implicitly convert them to double and
invoke Field::store(double) instead.
recv_truncate_group(), recv_copy_group(), recv_calc_lsn_on_data_add():
Cast ib_uint64_t expressions to ulint to get rid of "possible loss of
precision" warnings. (There should not be any loss of precision in
these cases.)
log_close(), log_checkpoint_margin(): Declare some variables as ib_uint64_t
instead of ulint, so that there won't be any potential loss of precision.
mach_write_ull(): Cast the second argument of mach_write_to_4() to ulint.
OS_FILE_FROM_FD(): Cast the return value of _get_osfhandle() to HANDLE.
row_merge_dict_table_get_index(): Cast the parameter of mem_free() to (void*)
in order to get rid of the bogus MSVC warning C4090, which has been reported
as MSVC bug 101661:
<http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=101661>
row_mysql_read_blob_ref(): To get rid of a bogus MSVC warning C4090,
drop a const qualifier.
in *.h files, so that the function signatures in the *.h and *.c files fully
match each other.
ut_dulint_sort(): Add a UNIV_INTERN qualifier also to the function definition.
The creation of the primary key does not work. We will have to flag
externally stored columns and copy the externally stored part from
the old table.
row_build_index_for_mysql(): Rename to row_merge_build_indexes().
Move from row0mysql.c to row0merge.c.
Remove private declarations from row0merge.h. Make many functions static
in row0merge.c.
cmp_rec_rec_simple(): A new comparison function.
dict_index_get_min_size(): New function.
OS_FILE_FROM_FD(fd): A macro for converting from int to os_file_t.
rec_convert_dtuple_to_rec_comp(): Make the interface lower-level.
rec_get_converted_size_comp(): Return also extra_size.
UT_SORT_FUNCTION_BODY(): Remove reference to an obsolete test program.
row_rec_to_index_entry_low(): New function.
row0merge.c: Implement merge sort based on file streams instead of
fixed-size blocks. Sort the small blocks as arrays of dfield_t*,
because it is faster than invoking rec_get_offsets() for every
comparison.
