The LGPL license is used in some legacy code, and to
adhere to current licensing polity, we remove those
files that are no longer used, and reorganize the
remaining LGPL code so it will be GPL licensed from
now on.
Note: This patch only removed LGPL licensed files
in MySQL 5.1, and is the second of a set of
patches to remove LGPL from all trees.
(See Bug# 11840513 for details)
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
POSIX requires that a signal handler defined with sigaction()
is not reset on delivering a signal unless SA_NODEFER or
SA_RESETHAND is set. It is therefore unnecessary to redefine
the handler on signal delivery on platforms where sigaction()
is used without those flags.
automatic reconnect
A client with automatic reconnect enabled will see the error
message "Lost connection to MySQL server during query" if the
connection is lost between mysql_stmt_prepare() and
mysql_stmt_execute(). The mysql_stmt_errno() number, however,
is 0 -- not the corresponding value 2013.
This patch checks for the case where the prepared statement
has been pruned due to a connection loss (i.e., stmt->mysql
has been set to NULL) during a call to cli_advanced_command(),
and avoids changing the last_errno to the result of the last
reconnect attempt.
A client doing multiple mysql_library_init() and
mysql_library_end() calls over the lifetime of the process may
experience lost character set data, potentially even a
SIGSEGV.
This patch reinstates the reloading of character set data when
a mysql_library_init() is done after a mysql_library_end().
The problem is a somewhat common misusage of the strmake function.
The strmake(dst, src, len) function writes at most /len/ bytes to
the string pointed to by src, not including the trailing null byte.
Hence, if /len/ is the exact length of the destination buffer, a
one byte buffer overflow can occur if the length of the source
string is equal to or greater than /len/.
As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().
Restore a stub of the removed mysql_odbc_escape_string function
to fix a ABI breakage. The function was intended to be private
and used only by Connector/ODBC, but, unfortunately, it was exported
as part of the ABI. Nonetheless, only a stub is restored as the
original function is inherently broken and shouldn't be used.
This restoration only applies to MySQL 5.0. This will be addressed
differently in later versions -- reworked library versioning.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
- Define and pass compile time path variables as pre-processor definitions to
mimic the makefile build.
- Set new CMake version and policy requirements explicitly.
- Changed DATADIR to MYSQL_DATADIR to avoid conflicting definition in
Platform SDK header ObjIdl.h which also defines DATADIR.
unnecessarily
The problem is that libmysqlclient.so is built with THREAD
undefined, while a client compiling against the same header
files will see THREAD as defined and definitions in
my_pthread.h will be included, possibly resulting in undefined
symbols that cannot be resolved with libmysqlclient.so.
The suggested solution is to require that clients wanting to
link with libmysqlclient.so should be built with
MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS defined. This requires a documentation
change, and more details for this will be supplied if this
patch is approved.
The MYSQL_CLIENT_NO_THREADS define was renamed from
UNDEF_THREADS_HACK, to get a more suitable (less suspicious)
name for the define. (The UNDEF_THREADS_HACK is retained for
backwards compatibility, though.)
This patch is also in anticipation of WL#4958, which will
remove this problem altogether by dropping the building of
libmysqlclient.

Various parts of code used different 'precision' arguments for sprintf("%g") when converting
floating point numbers to a string. This led to differences in results in some cases
depending on whether the text-based or prepared statements protocol is used for a query.
Fixed by changing arguments to sprintf("%g") to always be 15 (DBL_DIG) so that results are
consistent regardless of the protocol.
This patch will be null-merged to 6.0 as the problem does not exists there (fixed by the
patch for WL#2934).
The problem here is that embedded server starts handle_thread manager
thread on mysql_library_init() does not stop it on mysql_library_end().
At shutdown, my_thread_global_end() waits for thread count to become 0,
but since we did not stop the thread it will give up after 5 seconds.
Solution is to move shutdown for handle_manager thread from kill_server()
(mysqld specific) to clean_up() that is used by both embedded and mysqld.
This patch also contains some refactorings - to avoid duplicate code,
start_handle_manager() and stop_handle_manager() functions are introduced.
Unused variables are eliminated. handle_manager does not rely on global
variable abort_loop anymore to stop (abort_loop is not set for embedded).
Note: Specifically on Windows and when using DBUG version of libmysqld,
the complete solution requires removing obsolete code my_thread_init()
from my_thread_var(). This has a side effect that a DBUG statement
after my_thread_end() can cause thread counter to be incremented, and
embedded will hang for some seconds. Or worse, my_thread_init() will
crash if critical sections have been deleted by the global cleanup
routine that runs in a different thread.
This patch also fixes and revert prior changes for Bug#38293
"Libmysqld crash in mysql_library_init if language file missing".
Root cause of the crash observed in Bug#38293 was bug in my_thread_init()
described above
Bug#33031 app linked to libmysql.lib crash if run as service in vista under
localsystem
There are some problems using DllMain hook functions on Windows that
automatically do global and per-thread initialization for libmysqld.dll
1)per-thread initialization(DLL_THREAD_ATTACH)
MySQL internally counts number of active threads that and causes a delay in in
my_end() if not all threads are exited. But,there are threads that can be
started either by Windows internally (often in TCP/IP scenarios) or by user
himself - those threads are not necessarily using libmysql.dll functionality,
but nonetheless the contribute to the count of open threads.
2)process-initialization (DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH)
my_init() calls WSAStartup that itself loads DLLs and can lead to a deadlock in
Windows loader.
Fix is to remove dll initialization code from libmysql.dll in general case. I
still leave an environment variable LIBMYSQL_DLLINIT, which if set to any value
will cause the old behavior (DLL init hooks will be called). This env.variable
exists only to prevent breakage of existing Windows-only applications that
don't do mysql_thread_init() and work ok today. Use of LIBMYSQL_DLLINIT is
discouraged and it will be removed in 6.0

PREPARE", review fixes:
- make the patch follow the specification of WL#4166 and remove
the new error that was originally introduced.
Now the client never gets an error from reprepare, unless it failed.
I.e. even if the statement at hand returns a completely different
result set, this is not considered a server error.
The C API library, that can not handle this situation, was modified to
return a client error.
Added additional test coverage.
The problem was that the COM_STMT_SEND_LONG_DATA was sending a response
packet if the prepared statement wasn't found in the server (due to
reconnection). The commands COM_STMT_SEND_LONG_DATA and COM_STMT_CLOSE
should not send any packets, even error packets should not be sent since
they are not expected by the client API.
The solution is to clear generated during the execution of the aforementioned
commands and to skip resend of prepared statement commands. Another fix is
that if the connection breaks during the send of prepared statement command,
the command is not sent again since the prepared statement is no longer in the
server.
Rename client_last_error to last_error and client_last_errno to last_errno
to not break connectors which use the internal net structure for error handling.
