Do not test the value of err if the lock operation was skipped because innodb_logs_unsafe_for_binlog was TRUE; though this did not cause any bugs visible to the user, because err is inited to DB_SUCCESS at the start of the function row_search_for_mysql()
Add diagnostic code to track assertion failure in ut_a(cursor->old_stored == BTR_PCUR_OLD_STORED); the failure happened in OPTIMIZE TABLE, and in 4.0.24 in some other context
Fix bug #8677: if one used LOCK TABLES, created an InnoDB temp table, and did a multi-table update where a MyISAM table was the update table and the temp table was a read table, then InnoDB aserted in row0sel.c because n_mysql_tables_in_use was 0. Also, we remove the assertion altogether and just print an error to the .err log if this important consistency check fails. Then it is up to the user to read the .err log and notice the problem if there still are errors in MySQL's table locking.
Fix a little bug in InnoDB: we looked at the physical size of a stored SQL NULL value from a wrong field in the index; this has probably caused no bugs visible to the user, only caused some extra space usage in some rare cases; we may later backport the fix to 4.0
Fix the previous bug fix: dropping a table with FOREIGN KEY checks running on it caused a cascade of failed drops while the foreign key check was waiting for a lock
Fix bug: if we dropped a table where an INSERT was waiting for a lock to check a FOREIGN KEY constraint, then an assertion would fail in lock_reset_all_on_table(), since that operation assumes no waiting locks on the table or its records
row0mysql.c:
Fix bug: InnoDB failed to drop a table in the background drop queue if the table was referenced by a foreign key constraint
Fix InnoDB critical bug #7496; we scan the InnoDB data dictionary also at a normal mysqld startup, and create the spaces, so that we know the mapping space id -> .ibd file name; fix an infinite loop if DISCARD TABLESPACE coincides with INSERT or some other table operation; fix a potential crash if DISCARD TABLESPACE coincides with a cascaded FOREIGN KEY operation in the same table; do not allow DISCARD TABLESPACE of a referenced table if FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1
Fix bug #6817 and bug #6827 : do not crash the server if the buffer pool becomes filled by the locks of ONE huge transaction, return error 1206 instead; do not crash the server, but return error if we cannot allocate memory for the buffer pool at a mysqld startup
Fix bug #3478: InnoDB's FOREIGN KEY tables treated table and database names as case-insensitive; RENAME TABLE t to T would hang in an endless loop if t had a foreign key constraint defined on it
dict0dict.c:
Fix bug #3478: InnoDB's FOREIGN KEY tables treated table and database names as case-insensitive; RENAME TABLE t to T would hang in an endless loop if t had a foreign key constraint defined on it; fix also a hang that would occur if one tried in ALTER TABLE or RENAME TABLE to create a foreign key constraint name that collided with another existing name
Print more warnings to the .err log if ALTER TABLE ... IMPORT TABLESPACE fails for some reason
os0file.c:
Do not call exit(1) if os_file_delete() fails; remove unused parameter from
handle_error_no_exit()
fil0fil.c:
Allow DROP TABLE even if the .ibd file for the table does not exist
X-locks on duplicates also on LOAD DATA...REPLACE clause and
fixes a bug #6086 adding --disable_warnings and --enable_warnings around
the create table clauses in ctype_utf8 tests for InnoDB.
If one tries to drop an InnoDB table without an .ibd file, print to .err log that we DID remove the table from the internal data dictionary of InnoDB, and return DB_SUCCESS so that MySQL will delete the .frm file; the drawback in this is that then DROP TABLE returns success, and the user is not alerted; maybe it could return a warning
Fix bug #5137: if innodb_file_per_table was specified, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE ... TYPE=InnoDB said that cannot find path specified, and made mysqld to exit(1)
Raise maximum column prefix len to 767 bytes, so that MySQL can create a column prefix index of 255 UTF-8 characters (each takes 3 bytes at the maximum); add comments about why innobase_get_at_most_n_mbchars() works ok
dict0mem.h:
Raise maximum column prefix len to 767 bytes, so that MySQL can create a column prefix index of 255 UTF-8 characters (each takes 3 bytes at the maximum)
row0mysql.c:
If MySQL tries to create a column prefix index longer that 255 UTF-8 characters, give an error, and drop the table from the InnoDB internal data dictionary. MySQL did not drop the table there in its own error handling.
Fix bug #5180: having a column prefix index in the primary key, and the same column fully in a secondary key could cause an assertion failure in row_build_row_ref()
