The problem here is that symbols can not be loaded, because symbol
path is not set and default path does not include the directory
where PDB is located.
The problem is _not_ reproducible on the same machine where
mysqld.exe is built - if PDB is not found in the symbol path,
dbghelp would fallback to fully qualified PDB path as given in the
executable header and on the build host this will succeed.
The solution is to calculate symbol path and pass it to SymInitialize()
call.
- Replace per-thread signal()'s with SetUnhandledExceptionFilter().
The only remaining signal() is for SIGABRT (default abort()
handler in VS2005 is broken, i.e removes user exception filter)
- remove MessageBox()'es from error handling code
- Windows port for print_stacktrace() and write_core()
- Cleanup, removed some unused functions
For GCov builds, if the server crashes, the normal exit handler for writing
coverage information is not executed due to the abnormal termination.
Fix this by explicitly calling the __gcov_flush function in our crash handler.
- compilation on the Alpha platform was broken because the Alpha-specific code was not updated after replacing the SIGRETURN_FRAME_COUNT constant with a variable
Define a new CPP symbol that the target OS is Linux, and use it where only the OS matters and not the threads Library.
Until now, 'HAVE_LINUXTHREADS' was used to indicate "Target is Linux" in many places.
When we support configuration with NPTL but no Linuxthreads, this misuse must cease.
first pull, merge,test, and get it to work.
The main change is the new replication code - now we have two slave threads
SQL thread and I/O thread. I have also re-written a lot of the code to
prepare for multi-master implementation.
I also documented IO_CACHE quite extensively and to some extend, THD class.
