on Windows".
On platforms where read-write lock implementation does not
prefer readers by default (Windows, Solaris) server might
have deadlocked while detecting MDL deadlock.
MDL deadlock detector relies on the fact that read-write
locks which are used in its implementation prefer readers
(see new comment for MDL_lock::m_rwlock for details).
So far MDL code assumed that default implementation of
read/write locks for the system has this property.
Indeed, this turned out ot be wrong, for example, for
Windows or Solaris. Thus MDL deadlock detector might have
deadlocked on these systems.
This fix simply adds portable implementation of read/write
lock which prefer readers and changes MDL code to use this
new type of synchronization primitive.
No test case is added as existing rqg_mdl_stability test can
serve as one.
config.h.cmake:
Check for presence of pthread_rwlockattr_setkind_np to be
able to determine if system natively supports read-write
locks for which we can specify if readers or writers should
be preferred.
configure.cmake:
Check for presence of pthread_rwlockattr_setkind_np to be
able to determine if system natively supports read-write
locks for which we can specify if readers or writers should
be preferred.
configure.in:
Check for presence of pthread_rwlockattr_setkind_np to be
able to determine if system natively supports read-write
locks for which we can specify if readers or writers should
be preferred.
include/my_pthread.h:
Added support for portable read-write locks which prefer
readers.
To do so extended existing my_rw_lock_t implementation to
support selection of whom to prefer depending on a flag.
mysys/thr_rwlock.c:
Extended existing my_rw_lock_t implementation to support
selection of whom to prefer depending on a flag.
Added rw_pr_init() function implementing initialization of
read-write locks preferring readers.
sql/mdl.cc:
Use portable read-write locks which prefer readers instead of
relying on that system implementation of read-write locks has
this property (this was true for Linux/NPTL but was false,
for example, for Windows and Solaris).
Added comment explaining why preferring readers is important
for MDL deadlock detector (thanks to Serg for example!).
sql/mdl.h:
Use portable read-write locks which prefer readers instead of
relying on that system implementation of read-write locks has
this property (this was true for Linux/NPTL but was false,
for example, for Windows and Solaris).
In POSIX systems, the file descriptor set used in the select(2)
system call is represented by a bit vector of size FD_SETSIZE.
When select(2) is used on file/socket descriptors with a value
that is beyond this size, unpredictable errors may occur.
In this case, the error happens when there are a large number
of tables that need repair. These tables are opened before
the sockets for incoming connections are acquired, resulting
in these sockets getting descriptor id which is higher than
FD_SETSIZE.
Replacing the call to select(2) with poll(2) fixes the problem,
as poll takes an array of the wanted descriptors, instead of
a bit vector.
MS Windows has a different implementation of 'select', and is not
affected by this bug.
configure.in:
Added a test for the <poll.h> file
sql/mysqld.cc:
Restructured some of the code to reduce the number of
#ifdef's. Removed some HP/UX 10-specific code.
in message printed at end of configure
New text for the success message of "configure".
configure.in:
The message must be changed to drop the "www.mysql.com" URL.

path names than 99 characters, using the USTAR format of the
resulting source TAR.
To be able to specify the use of USTAR when creating the source
TAR, we needed both to update the GNU autotools version requirements
slightly, and update the initiation of the tools to use more
modern constructs.
printstack() being present
When Bug#47391 was fixed, no assumption was made that support
for Solaris 8 was needed. Solaris 8 lacks printstack(), and
the build breaks because of this.
This patch adds a test for the presence of printstack() to
configure.in for 5.0, and uses HAVE_PRINTSTACK to make
decisions rather than the __sun define.
- backported code that handles %f/%g arguments in
my_vsnprintf.c from 6.0
- backported %f/%g tests in unittest/mysys/my_vsnprintf-t.c
from 6.0
- replaced snprintf("%g") in sql/set_var.cc with my_gcvt()
- removed unnecessary "--replace-result"s for Windows in
mysql-test/suite/sys_vars/t/long_query_time_basic.test
- some test results adjustments
- Suffix like "-m2", "-rc" becomes part of version as "_m2", "_rc".
- Release counts from 1, not 0.
This is done for both the "generic" RPMs and the "shared-compat" ones.
It includes introducing a new version variable "MYSQL_U_SCORE_VERSION"
in "configure.in", where the dash is replaced by an underscore:
5.5.1-m2 -> 5.5.1_m2
to string conversions and vice versa"
Initial import of the dtoa.c code and custom wrappers around it
to allow its usage from the server code.
Conversion of FLOAT/DOUBLE values to DECIMAL ones or strings
and vice versa has been significantly reworked. As the new
algoritms are more precise than the older ones, results of such
conversions may not always match those obtained from older
server versions. This in turn may break compatibility for some
applications.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
- bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of exponent between
Unix and Windows"
- bug #21497 "DOUBLE truncated to unusable value"
- bug #26788 "mysqld (debug) aborts when inserting specific
numbers into char fields"
- bug #24541 "Data truncated..." on decimal type columns
without any good reason"
