- Simplify sql-bench installation,
do not try to resolve names : this leads to probem
if builddir is symlink located on different filesystem.
(reported by alik)
- Make WITHOUT_XXX (disabling plugin) work for DEFAULT
plugins. Prior to the patch is behaved just like
MANDATORY.
- LINK_LIBRARIES in MYSQL_ADD_PLUGIN had no effect for
statically linked plugins.
- Fix constant rebuild of initdb target on Windows.
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
client/mysqldump.c:
Pass my_free directly as its signature is compatible with the
callback type -- which wasn't the case for free_table_ent.
Fixed an incomplete historical ALTER TABLE MODIFY trimming the trigger
privilege bit from mysql.tables_priv.Table_priv column.
Removed the duplicate ALTER TABLE MODIFY.
Test suite added.

Rather than hardcode the plugin directory, enhance mysql_config
to fix plugin path when running a relocated install, and use it
to provide the plugin directory to mysqld_safe.
line exceeds the limit
The number and/or names of our files for the main test suite
(contents of "mysql-test/t/") now exceeds the command line
length limit on AIX.
Solve the problem by using separate "cp" commands for the
various file name extensions.
(make relies GNU extentions). The patch was partially
backport from 6.0.
Original comment:
bug#30708: make relies GNU extensions. Now that we no longer use
BitKeeper we can safely remove the SCCS handling with no loss of
functionality.

Plugin dir was set to a hard-coded path instead of relative the base dir.
This patch fixes this by using a path relative the basedir instead of the
plugin directory indicated by the configuration.

The problem was that the code that works with stored routines was present
in mysql_system_tables.sql. This is wrong because until upgrade is finished,
stored routines may be (and were) not available.
The fix is to move that code to the end of mysql_system_tables_fix.sql.
