FOUND
Description:- Failure during the validation of CA
certificate path which is provided as an option for 'ssl-ca'
returns two different errors for YaSSL and OPENSSL.
Analysis:- 'ssl-ca', option used for specifying the ssl ca
certificate path. Failing to validate this certificate with
OPENSSL returns an error, "ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL
connection error: SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_paths failed".
While YASSL returns "ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection
error: ASN: bad other signature confirmation". Error
returned by the OPENSSL is correct since
"SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations()" returns 0 (in case of
OPENSSL) for the failure and sets error as
"SSL_INITERR_BAD_PATHS". In case of YASSL,
"SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations()" returns an error number
which is less than or equal to 0 in case of error. Error
numbers for YASSL is mentioned in the file,
'extra/yassl/include/openssl/ssl.h'(line no : 292). Also
'ssl-ca' does not accept tilde home directory path
substitution.
Fix:- The condition which checks for the error in the
"SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations()" is changed in order to
accommodate YASSL as well. A logic is written in
"mysql_ssl_set()" in order accept the tilde home directory
path substitution for all ssl options.
The check for UCONTEXT in cmake was somehow become broken, disabling the
fallback to ucontext. This caused the non-blocking client API to not be
available for non-x86 platforms, on which no hand-crafted assembler
implementation of my_context is available.
Using --ssl-verify-server-cert and --ssl[-*] implies that
the ssl connection is required. The mysql client will now print an error if ssl
is required, but the server can not handle a ssl connection.
Don't use a fixed buffer for X509_NAME_oneline() in the client.
Do as the server does - allocate it dynamically.
For a test - regenerate certificates to have the server cert with
a long subject.
COMMUNICATION PACKETS; FEDERATED TABLE
Description:- Execution of FLUSH TABLES on a federated
table which has been idle for wait_timeout (on the remote
server) + tcp_keepalive_time, fails with an error,
"ERROR 1160 (08S01): Got an error writing communication
packets."
Analysis:- During FLUSH TABLE execution the federated
table is closed which will inturn close the federated
connection. While closing the connection, federated server
tries to communincate with the remote server. Since the
connection was idle for wait_timeout(on the remote server)+
tcp_keepalive_time, the socket gets closed. So this
communication fails because of broken pipe and the error is
thrown. But federated connections are expected to reconnect
silently. And also it cannot reconnect because the
"auto_reconnect" variable is set to 0 in "mysql_close()".
Fix:- Before closing the federated connection, in
"ha_federated_close()", a check is added which will verify
wheather the connection is alive or not. If the connection
is not alive, then "mysql->net.error" is set to 2 which
will indicate that the connetion is broken. Also the
setting of "auto_reconnect" variable to 0 is delayed and is
done after "COM_QUIT" command.
NOTE:- For reproducing this issue, "tcp_keepalive_time" has
to be set to a smaller value. This value is set in the
"/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time" file in Unix
systems. So we need root permission for changing it, which
can't be done through mtr test. So submitting the patch
without mtr test.
Memory Leak in mysql_options() was caused by missing call
to my_free() in MYSQL_SET_CLIENT_IP branch. Fixed by adding
my_free() to cleanup mysql->options.client_ip value before
assigning new value.

MYSQL_READ_DEFAULT_FILE
Parsing of the plugin-dir config file option was not working due to a typo.
Fixed the typo. No test case can be added due to lack of support for
defaults-exitra-file testing in mysql-test-run.pl.
Thanks to Sinisa for contributing the fix.

update 5.1 to replicate from 10.0 and
to show the server version (as of 10.0) correctly
sql-common/client.c:
mdev:4088
sql/slave.cc:
use the version number, not just the first character of the version string
(we want 10 > 4 not "10" < "4").
two tests still fail:
main.innodb_icp and main.range_vs_index_merge_innodb
call records_in_range() with both range ends being open
(which triggers an assert)
1. Clear text password client plugin disabled by default.
2. Added an environment variable LIBMYSQL_ENABLE_CLEARTEXT_PLUGIN, that
when set to something starting with '1', 'Y' or 'y' will enable the clear
text
plugin for all connections.
3. Added a new mysql_options() option : MYSQL_ENABLE_CLEARTEXT_PLUGIN
that takes an my_bool argument. When the value of the argument is non-zero
the clear text plugin is enabled for this connection only.
4. Added an enable-cleartext-plugin config file option that takes a numeric
argument. If the numeric value of the numeric argument is non-zero the
clear
text plugin is enabled for the connection
5. Added a boolean command line option "--enable_cleartext_plugin" to
mysql, mysqlslap and mysqladmin. When specified it will call mysql_options
with the effect of #3
6. Added a new CLEARTEXT option to the connect command in mysqltest.
When specified it will enable the cleartext plugin for usage.
7. Added test cases and updated existing ones that need the clear text
plugin.
