bug 2676 "DECLARE can't have COLLATE clause in stored procedure"
is fixed.
Fix after 2nd review
(this is not a fix to the bug, but simply to disable the test in
order to push a 5.0 to 5.1 merge)

The following procedure was not possible if max_sp_recursion_depth is 0
create procedure show_proc() show create procedure show_proc;
Actually there is no recursive call but the limit is checked.
Solved by temporarily increasing the thread's limit just before the fetch from cache
and decreasing after that.
gets deadlocked when dropping w/ log on"
Log tables rely on concurrent insert machinery to add data.
This means that log tables are always opened and locked by
special (artificial) logger threads. Because of this, the thread
which tries to drop a log table starts to wait for the table
to be unlocked. Which will happen only if the log table is disabled.
Alike situation happens if one tries to alter a log table.
However in addition to the problem above, alter table calls
check_if_locking_is_allowed() routine for the engine. The
routine does not allow alter for the log tables. So, alter
doesn't start waiting forever for logs to be disabled, but
returns with an error.
Another problem is that not all engines could be used for
the log tables. That's because they need concurrent insert.
In this patch we:
(1) Explicitly disallow to drop/alter a log table if it
is currently used by the logger.
(2) Update MyISAM to support log tables
(3) Allow to drop log tables/alter log tables if log is
disabled
At the same time we (4) Disallow to alter log tables to
unsupported engine (after this patch CSV and MyISAM are
alowed)
Recommit with review fixes.
Due to incorrect handling of FLUSH TABLES, log tables were marked for flush,
but not reopened. Later we started to wait for the log table to be closed
(disabled) after the flush. And as nobody disabled logs in concurrent treads,
the command lasted forever.
After internal consultations it was decided to skip logs during FLUSH TABLES.
The reasoning is that logging is done in the "log device", whatever it is
which is always active and controlled by FLUSH LOGS. So, to flush logs
one should use FLUSH LOGS, and not FLUSH TABLES.
Continued implementation of WL#1324 (table name to filename encoding)
The intermediate (not temporary) files of the new table
during ALTER TABLE was visible for SHOW TABLES. These
intermediate files are copies of the original table with
the changes done by ALTER TABLE. After all the data is
copied over from the original table, these files are renamed
to the original tables file names. So they are not temporary
files. They persist after ALTER TABLE, but just with another
name.
In 5.0 the intermediate files are invisible for SHOW TABLES
because all file names beginning with "#sql" were suppressed.
This failed since 5.1.6 because even temporary table names were
converted when making file names from them. The prefix became
converted to "@0023sql". Converting the prefix during SHOW TABLES
would suppress the listing of user tables that start with "#sql".
The solution of the problem is to continue the implementation of
the table name to file name conversion feature. One requirement
is to suppress the conversion for temporary table names.
This change is straightforward for real temporary tables as there
is a function that creates temporary file names.
But the generated path names are located in TMPDIR and have no
relation to the internal table name. This cannot be used for
ALTER TABLE. Its intermediate files need to be in the same
directory as the old table files. And it is necessary to be
able to deduce the same path from the same table name repeatedly.
Consequently the intermediate table files must be handled like normal
tables. Their internal names shall start with tmp_file_prefix
(#sql) and they shall not be converted like normal table names.
I added a flags parameter to all relevant functions that are
called from ALTER TABLE. It is used to suppress the conversion
for the intermediate table files.
The outcome is that the suppression of #sql in SHOW TABLES
works again. It does not suppress user tables as these are
converted to @0023sql on file level.
This patch does also fix ALTER TABLE ... RENAME, which could not
rename a table with non-ASCII characters in its name.
It does also fix the problem that a user could create a table like
`#sql-xxxx-yyyy`, where xxxx is mysqld's pid and yyyy is the thread
ID of some other thread, which prevented this thread from running
ALTER TABLE.
Some of the above problems are mentioned in Bug 1405, which can
be closed with this patch.
This patch does also contain some minor fixes for other forgotten
conversions. Still known problems are reported as bugs 21370,
21373, and 21387.
When executing ALTER TABLE all the attributes of the view were overwritten.
This is contrary to the user's expectations.
So some of the view attributes are preserved now : namely security and
algorithm. This means that if they are not specified in ALTER VIEW
their values are preserved from CREATE VIEW instead of being defaulted.
