Multiple charset support for InnoDB; note that if you create tables and the default charset-collation is not latin1_swedish_ci, then you cannot use those tables if you downgrade to 4.0 again
Make the drop InnoDB database operation aware of the setting FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0; DROP DATABASE seems to work ok anyway, but that is because MySQL first calls DROP TABLE for each table which has an .frm file
Allow always DROPping of a table which is only referenced by FOREIGN KEY constraints from the same table
Many files:
Do not let REPLACE to perform internally an UPDATE if the table is referenced by a FOREIGN KEY: the manual says that REPLACE must resolve a duplicate key error semantically with DELETE(s) + INSERT, and not by an UPDATE; the internal update caused foreign key checks and cascaded operations to behave in a semantically wrong way
If AUTOCOMMIT=1, then we do not need to make a plain SELECT set shared locks even on the SERIALIZABLE isolation level, because we know the transaction is read-only: a read-only transaction can always be performed on the REPEATABLE READ level, and that does not endanger the serializability
Remove redundant code; parse both the database name and the table name in a FOREIGN KEY constraint with quotes in mind
row0mysql.c, ha_innodb.cc, sql_table.cc:
Return error message Cannot delete or update a parent row... if we try to drop a table which is referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint, and the user has not set foreign_key_checks=0
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
Cleaned up embedded library access and query cache handling
Changed min stack size to 128K (to allow longer MyISAM keys)
Fixed wrong priority for XOR (should be less than NEG to get -1^1 to work)
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
Added option --max-record-length=# to myisamchk
Don't try repair twice if doing myisamchk --repair --force
Shared memory handler didn't clean up things on errors or shutdown
Fix the OS error 2 reported by Miguel and Mark in Windows crash recovery: a * had been forgotten from the path in directory scanning
ha_innodb.cc:
Set default directory in fil0fil.c right if we are running the Embedded Server Library, where the default dir of the process is not necessarily the MySQL datadir
Multiple tablespaces for InnoDB
sql_table.cc:
Tell explicitly that InnoDB should retrieve all columns in CHECKSUM TABLE
sql_update.cc, sql_select.cc, my_base.h:
More descriptive flag name HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_ALL_COLS
Fix for a bug with LEAST() in WHERE clause
ha_innodb.cc:
Fix for a configure bug
multi_update.result, multi_update.test:
Fix for the update with NULL's in the result set
sql_update.cc:
Fix for the update with NULL's in the result set
Fix for the update with NULL's in the result set
Fix for the update with NULL's in the result set
Since the mysql interactive client or some other phase in communication cuts > 64 kB strings to very short, restrict the output of SHOW INNODB STATUS to at most 60 kB
Remove potential starvation of a full log buffer flush: only flush up to the lsn which was the largest at the time when we requested the full log buffer flush
os0sync.h, os0sync.c:
Fix a bug in os_event on Unix: even though we signaled the event, some threads could continue waiting if the event became nonsignaled quickly again; this made group commit less efficient than it should be
In ORDER BY MySQL seems to set the key read flag also in the case where the primary key contains only a prefix of a column - not the whole column; to prevent potential bugs retrieve the whole column if the index contains a prefix of it
Cleanup
ha_innodb.cc, data0type.h:
Make sure non-latin1 users can downgrade from 4.0.14 to an earlier version if they have not created DATA_BLOB column prefix indexes
Merge InnoDB-4.0.14: SAVEPOINT now implemented; InnoDB now accepts also column prefix keys; crashing bug in ON UPDATE CASCADE fixed; page checksum formula fixed
Remove accidenatlly committed debug printfs when query cache is used
sql_update.cc, sql_load.cc, sql_insert.cc, sql_delete.cc:
For the transactional query cache algorithm to work we must invalidate the query cache in INSERT/DELETE/UPDATE before writing to the binlog or calling ha_autocommit_... Note that binlog writing may also call commit. The crucial thing is that the transaction which modified data must not be committed BEFORE the query cache is invalidated.
Remove code never actually used in IGNORE; InnoDB just rolls back the latest row insert or update on a duplicate key error and leaves it for MySQL to decide whether to ignore the error
