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.
server
If the server connection was lost during repeated status commands,
the client would fail to detect this and the client output would be inconsistent.
This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the server is online
before the client attempts to execute the status command.
The problem: described in the bug report.
The fix:
--increase buffers where it's necessary
(buffers which are used in stxnmov)
--decrease buffer lengths which are used
memory issue ?
The mysql command line client could misinterpret some character
sequences as commands under some circumstances.
The upper limit for internal readline buffer was raised to 1 GB
(the same as for server's max_allowed_packet) so that any input
line is processed by add_line() as a whole rather than in
chunks.
mysqlbinlog --database parameter was being ignored when processing
row events. As such no event filtering would take place.
This patch addresses this by deploying a call to shall_skip_database
when table_map_events are handled (as these contain also the name of
the database). All other rows events referencing the table id for the
filtered map event, will also be skipped.
mysqldump --tab still dumped triggers to stdout rather than to
individual tables.
We now append triggers to the .sql file for the corresponding
table.
--events and --routines correspond to a database rather than a
table and will still go to stdout with --tab unless redirected
with --result-file (-r).
Dump all connection-related arguments when running mysqlcheck
from mysql_upgrade.
No test case, since the output depends on the test suite
configuration and platform.
The --hexdump option crashed mysqlbinlog when used together
with the --read-from-remote-server option due to use of
uninitialized memory.
Since Log_event::print_header() relies on temp_buf to be
initialized when the --hexdump option is present,
dump_remote_log_entries() was fixed to setup temp_buf to point
to the start of a binlog event as done in
dump_local_log_entries().
The root cause of this bug is identical to the one for
bug #17654. The latter was fixed in 5.1 and up, so this
patch is backport of the patches for bug #17654 to 5.0.
Only 5.0 needs a changelog entry.
