As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().

proc_info_hook, mysys access to thd->proc_info
This patch is necessary for backport of WL#4284 "Transactional
DDL locking".
Support for flushing individual logs, so that the user can
selectively flush a subset of the server logs.
Flush of individual logs is done according to the
following syntax:
FLUSH <log_category> LOGS;
The syntax is extended so that the user is able to flush a
subset of logs:
FLUSH [log_category LOGS,];
where log_category is one of:
SLOW
ERROR
BINARY
ENGINE
GENERAL
RELAY.

WL#4144 - Lock MERGE engine children.
Committing a version of the patch merged with WL#3726
on behalf of Ingo.
Step #1: Move locking from parent to children.
MERGE children are now left in the query list of tables
after inserted there in open_tables(). So they are locked
by lock_tables() as all other tables are.
The MERGE parent does not store locks any more. It appears
in a MYSQL_LOCK with zero lock data. This is kind of a "dummy"
lock.
All other lock handling is also done directly on the children.
To protect against parent or child modifications during LOCK
TABLES, the children are detached after every statement and
attached before every statement, even under LOCK TABLES.
The children table list is removed from the query list of tables
on every detach and on close of the parent.
Step #2: Move MERGE specific functionality from SQL layer
into table handler.
Functionality moved from SQL layer (mainly sql_base.cc)
to the table handler (ha_myisammrg.cc).
Unnecessary code is removed from the SQL layer.
Step #3: Moved all MERGE specific members from TABLE
to ha_myisammrg.
Moved members from TABLE to ha_myisammrg.
Renamed some mebers.
Fixed comments.
Step #4: Valgrind and coverage testing
Valgrind did not uncover new problems.
Added purecov comments.
Added a new test for DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY options.
Changed handling of ::reset() for non-attached children.
Fixed the merge-big test.
Step #5: Fixed crashes detected during review
Changed detection when to attach/detach.
Added new tests.
Backport also the fix for Bug#44040 "MySQL allows creating a
MERGE table upon VIEWs but crashes when using it"

Fix build failure of mysql-6.0-3726 tree on Windows.
The failure was caused by the fact that sql/mdl.cc was
using __func__ macro without including sql_profile.h
header which contained definition of this macro for
those platforms that miss it.
This patch solves this problem by moving this define to
include/my_global.h which makes it available in modules
which don't/can't include sql/mysql_priv.h.
This is a patch that is part of WL#3726.

Fix a MyISAM-specific bug in the new implementation of
LOCK TABLES (WL#3726).
If more than one instance of a MyISAM table are open in the
same connection, all of them must share the same status_param.
Otherwise, unlock of a table may lead to lost records.

Bug#32082 : definition of VOID in my_global.h conflicts with Windows
SDK headers
VOID macro is now removed. Its usage is replaced with void cast.
In some cases, where cast does not make much sense (pthread_*, printf,
hash_delete, my_seek), cast is ommited.

Bug#35164: Large number of invalid pthread_attr_setschedparam calls
Bug#37536: Thread scheduling causes performance degradation at low thread count
Bug#12702: Long queries take 100% of CPU and freeze other applications under Windows
The problem is that although having threads with different priorities
yields marginal improvements [1] in some platforms [2], relying on some
statically defined priorities (QUERY_PRIOR and WAIT_PRIOR) to play well
(or to work at all) with different scheduling practices and disciplines
is, at best, a shot in the dark as the meaning of priority values may
change depending on the scheduling policy set for the process.
Another problem is that increasing priorities can hurt other concurrent
(running on the same hardware) applications (such as AMP) by causing
starvation problems as MySQL threads will successively preempt lower
priority processes. This can be evidenced by Bug#12702.
The solution is to not change the threads priorities and rely on the
system scheduler to perform its job. This also enables a system admin
to increase or decrease the scheduling priority of the MySQL process,
if intended.
Furthermore, the internal wrappers and code for changing the priority
of threads is being removed as they are now unused and ancient.
1. Due to unintentional side effects. On Solaris this could artificially
help benchmarks as calling the priority changing syscall millions of
times is more beneficial than the actual setting of the priority.
2. Where it actually works. It has never worked on Linux as the default
scheduling policy SCHED_OTHER only accepts the static priority 0.

message:
Fix for main.ssl and main.ssl_compress test case failures under pool-of-threads.
The problem is that the SSL layer has a read buffer and might read
more data than requested by the VIO layer. The SSL layer empties the
socket buffer which causes the socket to not be signaled for IO if
the client is waiting for a command which is sitting in the read
buffer.
The solution is to retrieve from the transport layer the number of
bytes waiting in the read buffer. The data in the read buffer needs
to be processed before waiting for more data.
