Major replication test framework cleanup. This does the following:
- Ensure that all tests clean up the replication state when they
finish, by making check-testcase check the output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
This implies:
- Slave must not be running after test finished. This is good
because it removes the risk for sporadic errors in subsequent
tests when a test forgets to sync correctly.
- Slave SQL and IO errors must be cleared when test ends. This is
good because we will notice if a test gets an unexpected error in
the slave threads near the end.
- We no longer have to clean up before a test starts.
- Ensure that all tests that wait for an error in one of the slave
threads waits for a specific error. It is no longer possible to
source wait_for_slave_[sql|io]_to_stop.inc when there is an error
in one of the slave threads. This is good because:
- If a test expects an error but there is a bug that causes
another error to happen, or if it stops the slave thread without
an error, then we will notice.
- When developing tests, wait_for_*_to_[start|stop].inc will fail
immediately if there is an error in the relevant slave thread.
Before this patch, we had to wait for the timeout.
- Remove duplicated and repeated code for setting up unusual replication
topologies. Now, there is a single file that is capable of setting
up arbitrary topologies (include/rpl_init.inc, but
include/master-slave.inc is still available for the most common
topology). Tests can now end with include/rpl_end.inc, which will clean
up correctly no matter what topology is used. The topology can be
changed with include/rpl_change_topology.inc.
- Improved debug information when tests fail. This includes:
- debug info is printed on all servers configured by include/rpl_init.inc
- User can set $rpl_debug=1, which makes auxiliary replication files
print relevant debug info.
- Improved documentation for all auxiliary replication files. Now they
describe purpose, usage, parameters, and side effects.
- Many small code cleanups:
- Made have_innodb.inc output a sensible error message.
- Moved contents of rpl000017-slave.sh into rpl000017.test
- Added mysqltest variables that expose the current state of
disable_warnings/enable_warnings and friends.
- Too many to list here: see per-file comments for details.
Some of the test cases reference to binlog position and
these position numbers are written into result explicitly.
It is difficult to maintain if log event format changes.
There are a couple of cases explicit position number appears,
we handle them in different ways
A. 'CHANGE MASTER ...' with MASTER_LOG_POS or/and RELAY_LOG_POS options
Use --replace_result to mask them.
B. 'SHOW BINLOG EVENT ...'
Replaced by show_binlog_events.inc or wait_for_binlog_event.inc.
show_binlog_events.inc file's function is enhanced by given
$binlog_file and $binlog_limit.
C. 'SHOW SLAVE STATUS', 'show_slave_status.inc' and 'show_slave_status2.inc'
For the test cases just care a few items in the result of 'SHOW SLAVE STATUS',
only the items related to each test case are showed.
'show_slave_status.inc' is rebuild, only the given items in $status_items
will be showed.
'check_slave_is_running.inc' and 'check_slave_no_error.inc'
and 'check_slave_param.inc' are auxiliary files helping
to show running status and error information easily.
Bug#319 if while a non-transactional slave is replicating a transaction possible problem
It is impossible to roll back a mixed engines transaction when one of the engine is
non-transaction. In replication that fact is crucial because the slave can not safely
re-apply a transction that was interrupted with STOP SLAVE.
Fixed with making STOP SLAVE not be effective immediately in the case the current
group of replication events has modified a non-transaction table. In order for slave to leave
either the group needs finishing or the user issues KILL QUERY|CONNECTION slave_thread_id.
The fix for BUG#20103 "Escaping with backslash does not work as expected"
was implemented too greedy though in that it not only changes the behavior
of backslashes within strings but in general, so disabling command shortcuts
like \G or \C (which in turn leads to Bug #36391: "mysqlbinlog creates invalid charset
statements").
The fix allows the escaping with backslash to take place only inside a string,
thus enabling the execution of command shortcuts and presevering the fix for
BUG#20103.
In order to handle CHAR() fields, 8 bits were reserved for
the size of the CHAR field. However, instead of denoting the
number of characters in the field, field_length was used which
denotes the number of bytes in the field.
Since UTF-8 fields can have three bytes per character (and
has been extended to have four bytes per character in 6.0),
an extra two bits have been encoded in the field metadata
work for fields of type Field_string (i.e., CHAR fields).
Since the metadata word is filled, the extra bits have been
encoded in the upper 4 bits of the real type (the most
significant byte of the metadata word) by computing the
bitwise xor of the extra two bits. Since the upper 4 bits
of the real type always is 1111 for Field_string, this
means that for fields of length <256, the encoding is
identical to the encoding used in pre-5.1.26 servers, but
for lengths of 256 or more, an unrecognized type is formed,
causing an old slave (that does not handle lengths of 256
or more) to stop.
The crash appeared to be a result of allocating an instance of Discrete_interval
automatically that that was referred in out-of-declaration scope.
Fixed with correcting backing up and restoring scheme of
auto_inc_intervals_forced, introduced by bug#33029, by means of shallow copying;
added simulation code that forces executing those fixes of the former bug that
targeted at master-and-slave having incompatible bug#33029-prone versions.
In the patch for BUG#21842, the code for handling old rows events were
refactored. There were a bug in the refactored code (possibly introduced
after the patch for BUG#21842) that caused caused the refactored old events
to read a columns bitmap after image even though there is no such bitmap
for old events. As a result, the reading got out of sync, and started reading
invalid data.
This patch removes all trace of the after image column bitmap from the refactored
old events and removes functions that are no longer needed because they are empty.
