Added put_length() to get_length() and unpack_key() to pack_key().
Keys were packed with the minimum size of the length field for the key part and
unpacked with length size of the base column.
For the purpose of optimal key packing we have the method pack_key(), while rows are
packed with pack(). Now keys are unpacked with unpack_key() and no longer with
unpack() which is used for rows.
"Running ANALYZE TABLE on bdb table inside a transaction hangs server thread"
1. added new status HA_ADMIN_REJECT and processing of it in mysql_admin_table
2. got ha_berkley::analyze to return HA_ADMIN_REJECT if there are any
transactions with the table..
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
query_alloc_block_size, query_prealloc_size, range_alloc_block_size,transaction_alloc_block_size and transaction_prealloc_size
Add more checks for "out of memory" detection in range optimization
Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
(All commit emails since 4.0.1 checked)
This had to be done now, before the 4.1 tree changes to much, to make it easy to propagate bug fixes to the 4.1 tree.
Fixed problem with UPDATE and BDB tables
Fixed problem with GRANT FILE privilege on database level
mysqld --warnings works now
Fixed problem with SHOW OPEN TABLES when not using BDB
Added some tests for ALTER TABLE to the test scripts
Remember UNION for ALTER TABLE
Added test for if we are supporting transactions.
Don't allow REPLACE to replace a row when we have generated an auto_increment key
Fixed bug when using BLOB keys
Fixed bug in SET @variable=user.
