At the shutdown, write the latest lsn only to the first pages of the ibdata files of the system tablespace, NOT to the .ibd files; writing to tens of thousands .ibd files can take minutes
Do not test the value of err if the lock operation was skipped because innodb_logs_unsafe_for_binlog was TRUE; though this did not cause any bugs visible to the user, because err is inited to DB_SUCCESS at the start of the function row_search_for_mysql()
Gluh's SESSION/GLOBAL for @variables fix in sql_yacc.yy and
Bar's well_formed_len() changes in ndb code
did not make it and should be re-applied manually
between two server instances at server shutdown/startup.
This conflict on advisory locks appears to be the result of a bug
in the operating system; these locks should be released when the
files are closed, but somehow that does not always happen
immediately in Linux. (Bug #9381)
Add diagnostic code to track assertion failure in ut_a(cursor->old_stored == BTR_PCUR_OLD_STORED); the failure happened in OPTIMIZE TABLE, and in 4.0.24 in some other context
Fix Bug #9526 in 5.0: MySQL ENUM and SET columns are internally actually unsigned integer types; we must take care that old tables still treat ENUM and SET (incorrectly) as a character string, while new created tables treat it correctly as an unsigned integer
If MySQL wrote to its binlog, but for some reason trx->update_undo and trx->insert_undo were NULL in InnoDB, then trx->commit_lsn was garbage, and InnoDB could assert in the log flush of trx_commit_complete_for_mysql() (Bug #9277)

Change the sorting order of TEXT columns in InnoDB: pad with spaces at the end in comparisons; we MUST UPDATE the MySQL MANUAL to warn about the need to rebuild tables (also MyISAM) in certain cases in an upgrade to 5.0.3; TODO: study what complications the missing DATA_BINARY_TYPE flag in InnoDB < 4.0.14 causes: we would compare then also BLOBs with space padding, not just TEXT
Revert the change to the space padding of BLOB and TEXT in comparisons; we cannot change the sorting order, because that would make old tables to appear corrupt; better to change LIKE 'a%' processing in MySQL, so that the lower end of the search interval would be 'a', not 'a '
Fix that 'a' LIKE 'a%' was not true for an InnoDB BLOB or TEXT type column prefix index search: InnoDB assumed that the BLOB and TEXT should not be padded with space in comparisons; this bug is also in 4.1; it may have worked in 4.1 because MySQL may have asked there for strings >= 'a', while in 5.0 it asks for strings >= 'a '
Fix a crash in a simple search with a key: the dtype->len of a true VARCHAR is the payload maximum len in bytes: it does not include the 2 bytes MySQL uses to store the string length
ha_innodb.cc:
Fix a crash in true VARCHARs in test-innodb: we passed a wrong pointer to the column conversion in an UPDATE
rowid_order_innodb.result, ps_3innodb.result, innodb.result, endspace.result:
Edit InnoDB test results to reflect the arrival of true VARCHARs
Add a settable session variable innodb_support_xa; setting it to 0 can save up to 10 % of CPU time and 150 bytes of space in each undo log
trx0trx.h, trx0undo.c, trx0trx.c, trx0roll.c:
Enable XA if innodb_support_xa is not set to 0; make prepare to do log fsync's according to innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit
instead of SYS_TABLES.MIX_LEN, because the latter was not
initialized to zero in old MySQL 3.23 releases. This will break
existing MySQL/InnoDB 5.0.3-bk databases for which
SHOW TABLE STATUS displays Row_format=Compact.
which is always false. In a very fast InnoDB shutdown, we just ensure that
no more transactions are running, flush InnoDB log, signal InnoDB threads to die,
and then return from InnoDB (from innobase_end()) without waiting for those threads
to actually die. I have tested on a 4CPU machine that even with --innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=0,
this optimized InnoDB very fast shutdown loses no committed transactions. Patch pre-approved by Heikki.
