This patch provides performance improvements:
- send_fields() when character_set_results = latin1
is now about twice faster for column/table/database
names, consisting on ASCII characters.
Changes:
- Protocol doesn't use "convert" temporary buffer anymore,
and converts strings directly to "packet".
- General conversion optimization: quick conversion
of ASCII strings was added.
modified files:
include/m_ctype.h
- Adding a new flag.
- Adding a new function prototype
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc
- Adding quick conversion method for embedded library:
conversion is now done directly to result buffer,
without using a temporary buffer.
mysys/charset.c
- Mark all dynamic ucs2 character sets as non-ASCII
- Mark some dymamic 7bit and 8bit charsets as non-ASCII
(for example swe7 is not fully ASCII compatible).
sql/protocol.cc
- Adding quick method to convert a string directly
into protocol buffer, without using a temporary buffer.
sql/protocol.h
- Adding a new method prototype
sql/sql_string.cc
Optimization for conversion between two ASCII-compatible charsets:
- quickly convert ASCII strings,
switch to mc_wc->wc_mb method only when a non-ASCII character is met.
- copy four ASCII characters at once on i386
strings/conf_to_src.c
- Marking non-ASCII character sets with a flag.
strings/ctype-extra.c
- Regenerating ctype-extra.c by running "conf_to_src".
strings/ctype-uca.c
- Marking UCS2 character set as non-ASCII.
strings/ctype-ucs2.c
- Marking UCS2 character set as non-ASCII.
strings/ctype.c
- A new function to detect if a 7bit or 8bit character set
is ascii compatible.
Two character mappings were way off (backtick and tilde were "E"
and "Y"!), and three others were slightly rotated. The first
would cause collisions, and the latter was probably benign.
Now, assign the character mappings exactly to their normal values.
(Regression, caused by a patch for the bug 22646).
Problem: when result type of date_format() was changed from
binary string to character string, mixing date_format()
with a ascii column in CONCAT() stopped to work.
Fix:
- adding "repertoire" flag into DTCollation class,
to mark items which can return only pure ASCII strings.
- allow character set conversion from pure ASCII to other character sets.

Backporting a 5.0 change:
MAX_BUF was too small for Index.xml
Changeing MAX_BUF and adding assert to easier
catch the same problem in the future.
ctype-extra.c:
Regenerating ctype-extra.c with the fixed conf_to_src.
Buffer was too small to load Index.xml.
So some charsets were not gerenrated.
Making the buffer bigger, and adding an DBUG_ASSERT,
to easier catch the problem in the future.
ctype-extra.c:
Additional charsets were generated.
Fixing latin1 to cp1252, according to
recent changes in ctype-latin1.c.
Index.xml:
Marking latin1_swedish_ci as "compiled"
to avoid its generating into ctype-extra.c.
ctype-extra.c:
Bug#12076 --with-extra-charsets has no effect
All supported dnamic charsets were generated
from sql/share/charsets/*.xml under #ifdefs.
Compiling is to be activated from "configure"
by adding --with-extra-charsets.
I'm not including auto-recreating of ctype-extra.c
into build process for ease purposes.
In cp932, '\' character can be the second byte in a
multi-byte character stream. This makes it difficult to use
mysql_escape_string. Added flag to indicate which languages allow
'\' as second byte of multibyte sequence so that when putting a prepared
statement into the binlog we can decide at runtime whether hex encoding
is really needed.
