5.1-related fixes
libmysqld/Makefile.am fixed to recompile and link ha_*.cc files that
keep dependance on THD structure.
Minor fixes to make tests working.
- Removed not used variables
- Changed some ulong parameters/variables to ulonglong (possible serious bug)
- Added casts to get rid of safe assignment from longlong to long (and similar)
- Added casts to function parameters
- Fixed signed/unsigned compares
- Added some constructores to structures
- Removed some not portable constructs
Better fix for bug Bug #21428 "skipped 9 bytes from file: socket (3)" on "mysqladmin shutdown"
(Added new parameter to net_clear() to define when we want the communication buffer to be emptied)
Added missing DBUG_RETURN statements (in mysqldump.c)
Added missing enums
Fixed a lot of wrong DBUG_PRINT() statements, some of which could cause crashes
Removed usage of %lld and %p in printf strings as these are not portable or produces different results on different systems.
Moved .progress files into the log directory
Moved 'cluster' database tables into the MySQL database, to not have 'cluster' beeing a reserved database name
Fixed bug where mysqld got a core dump when trying to use a table created by MySQL 3.23
Fixed some compiler warnings
Fixed small memory leak in libmysql
Note that this doesn't changeset doesn't include the new mysqldump.c code required to run some tests. This will be added when I merge 5.0 to 5.1
Problem is that some files moved to storage/*/ still are dependent
on sql/ code (usually use members of THD structure)
that can get different being compiled with another #define-s
Code added to recompile these for the embedded server
Bug #21785 "Server crashes after rename of the log table" and
Bug #21966 "Strange warnings on create like/repair of the log
tables"
According to the patch, from now on, one should use RENAME to
perform a log table rotation (this should also be reflected in
the manual).
Here is a sample:
use mysql;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log2 LIKE general_log;
RENAME TABLE general_log TO general_log_backup, general_log2 TO general_log;
The rules for Rename of the log tables are following:
IF 1. Log tables are enabled
AND 2. Rename operates on the log table and nothing is being
renamed to the log table.
DO 3. Throw an error message.
ELSE 4. Perform rename.
The very RENAME query will go the the old (backup) table. This is
consistent with the behavoiur we have with binlog ROTATE LOGS
statement.
Other problems, which are solved by the patch are:
1) Now REPAIR of the log table is exclusive operation (as it should be), this
also eliminates lock-related warnings. and
2) CREATE LIKE TABLE now usese usual read lock on the source table rather
then name lock, which is too restrictive. This way we get rid of another
log table-related warning, which occured because of the above fact
(as a side-effect, name lock resulted in a warning).
