This problem could happen when show table status get outdated copy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is in a table cache it will likely get outdated state info copy.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.
- When a MyISAM table which belongs to a merge table union and is
renamed the associated file descriptors are closed on windows.
This causes a server crash next time an insert or update is
performed on the merge table.
- This patch prevents the system from crashing on windows by
checking for bad file descriptors every time the MyISAM table
is locked by associated the merge table.
- When an ALTER TABLE RENAME is performed on windows, the files are closed and their cached file
descriptors are marked invalid. Performing INSERT, UPDATE or SELECT on the associated merge
table causes a server crash on windows. This patch adds a test for bad file descriptors when a
table attempts a lock. If a bad descriptor is found an error is thrown. An additional FLUSH TABLES
will be necessary to further operate on the associated merge table.
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
Changed my_error() to print error messages, which come from
arbitrary registered ranges of error messages. Messages can
be unregistered (and should be at end of the program).
Added registration of handler error messages.
Added a new mi_print_error() macro and a new
mi_report_error() function, which supply error
messages with a table name.
Added calls to mi_print_error() or mi_report_error()
at all places in MyISAM, where table corruption is detected.
Changed the semantics of open_count so that it is decremented
at every unlock (if it was incremented due to data changes).
So it indicates a crash, if it is non-zero after a lock.
The table will then be repaired.
Fixed bugs in group_concat with ORDER BY and DISTINCT (Bugs #2695, #3381 and #3319)
Fixed crash when doing rollback in slave and the io thread catched up with the sql thread
Set locked_in_memory properly
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
Monty revoked any locks for temporary tables in
ha_myisam::external_lock()
But further code bans using write cache on nonlocked tables
this makes operations much slower
Fixes for embedded server
Made key_cache more configurable
Fixed that one can change key blocksize in MyISAM
A lot of optimizations to make MyISAM slightly faster
