This problem could happen when show table status get outdated copy
of TABLE object from table cache.
MyISAM updates state info when external_lock() method is called. Though
I_S does not lock a table to avoid deadlocks. If I_S opens a table which
is in a table cache it will likely get outdated state info copy.
In this case shared state copy is more recent than local copy. This problem
is fixed by correctly restoring myisam state info pointer back to original
value, that is to shared state.
Affects MyISAM only. No good deterministic test case for this fix.
(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 #)
Addendum fixes after changing the condition variable
for the global read lock.
The stress test suite revealed some deadlocks. Some were
related to the new condition variable (COND_global_read_lock)
and some were general problems with the global read lock.
It is now necessary to signal COND_global_read_lock whenever
COND_refresh is signalled.
We need to wait for the release of a global read lock if one
is set before every operation that requires a write lock.
But we must not wait if we have locked tables by LOCK TABLES.
After setting a global read lock a thread waits until all
write locks are released.
- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
(Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code
Change bool in C code to my_bool
Added to mysqltest --enable_parsning and --disable_parsing to avoid to have to comment parts of tests
Added comparison of LEX_STRING's and use this to compare file types for view and trigger files.
Fixed portability problem with bool in C programs
Moved close_thread_tables out from LOCK_thread_count mutex (safety fix)
my_sleep() -> pthread_cond_timedwait()
The idea of the patch
is that every cursor gets its own lock id for table level locking.
Thus cursors are protected from updates performed within the same
connection. Additionally a list of transient (must be closed at
commit) cursors is maintained and all transient cursors are closed
when necessary. Lastly, this patch adds support for deadlock
timeouts to TLL locking when using cursors.
+ post-review fixes.
Simple optimization for 2 argument usage to function of variable arguments
Fix stack overrun when using 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+....
Update crash-me results for 5.0
Don't call post_open if pre_open() fails (optimization)
myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size is depricated
Ensure that myisam_data_pointer_size is honoured when creating new MyISAM files
Changed default value of myisam_data_pointer_size from 4 to 6 to get rid of 'table-is-full' errors
Fixed problem with UPDATE and BDB tables
Fixed problem with GRANT FILE privilege on database level
mysqld --warnings works now
Fixed problem with SHOW OPEN TABLES when not using BDB
Added some tests for ALTER TABLE to the test scripts
Fixed bug in SELECT db1.table.* FROM db1.table,db2.table
Fixed bug in INSERT DELAYED when doing shutdown and a table was locked
Changed that tmp_table_size =4G-1 means unlimited.
updated manual about table lock counter
fixed coredump in DROP DATABASE with long bogus name by non-root user
fixed bug in handling STOP immediately after ROTATE
added test case for buffer overrun on DROP DATABASE by non-root user
added test case for the STOP bug in replication
