min() and max() functions are implemented in MySQL as macros.
This means that max(a,b) is expanded to: ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
Note how 'a' is quoted two times.
Now imagine 'a' is a recursive function call that's several 10s of levels deep.
And the recursive function does max() with a function arg as well to dive into
recursion.
This means that simple function call can take most of the clock time.
Identified and fixed several such calls to max()/min() : including the IF()
sql function implementation.
Problem: Extra new line appeared in jisx0208_sjis2.dat in a mistake, which
broke jp_convert_sjis and jp_select_sjis tests.
Fix: removing extra line

Calling List<Cached_item>::delete_elements for the same list twice
caused a crash of the server in the function JOIN::cleaunup.
Ensured that delete_elements() in JOIN::cleanup would be called only once.
Problem: binlog_stm_binlog runs INSERT DELAYED queries, and
then prints the contents of the binlog. Before checking the
contents of the binlog, the test waits until the rows have
appeared in the table. However, this is not enough, since
INSERT DELAYED does not write rows to the binlog at the same
time as it writes them to the table. So there is a race.
Fix: Add a FLUSH TABLES before SHOW BINLOG EVENTS. That
waits until the insert_delayed thread is done.
BUG#37884: rpl_row_basic_2myisam and rpl_row_basic_3innodb fail sporadically in pushbuild
These have been fixed in 5.1-rpl. Re-applying fix for BUG#37884
in 5.1-bugteam, and disabling rpl_flushlog_loop for BUG#37733 in
5.1-bugteam.
Range scan in descending order for c <= <col> <= c type of
ranges was ignoring the DESC flag.
However some engines like InnoDB have the primary key parts
as a suffix for every secondary key.
When such primary key suffix is used for ordering ignoring
the DESC is not valid.
But we generally would like to do this because it's faster.
Fixed by performing only reverse scan if the primary key is used.
Removed some dead code in the process.
Problem: After START SLAVE, the Slave_IO_Status column of
SHOW SLAVE STATUS goes from No to Yes asynchronously. That
caused sporadic failures on pushbuild in rpl_stm_until since
the test contains SHOW SLAVE STATUS right after START SLAVE.
Fix: Wait until Slave_IO_Status becomes Yes after each
START SLAVE.
Problem: the test waits for a 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE' event to
appear in the master's binlog, then checks on the slave whether
the number of temporary tables has decreased. The slave does
not sync, causing a race.
Fix: check for the 'DROP TEMPORARY TABLE' event on slave
instead of on master.
This is not a fix to the bug. It only adds debug info, so
that we can analyze the bug better next time it happens.
Please revert the patch after the bug is fixed.
the reason for the failure is that io thread passes through a sequence of state
changes before it eventually got stuck at the expect running state as NO.
It's unreasonble to wait for the running status while the whole idea of the test is
to get to the IO thread error.
Fixed with changing the waiting condition.
Problem: master binlog has 'create table t1'. Master binlog
was removed before slave could replicate it. In test's cleanup
code, master did 'drop table t1', which caused slave sql
thread to stop with an error since slave sql thread did not
know about t1.
Fix: t1 is just an auxiliary construction, only needed on
master. Hence, we turn off binlogging before t1 is created,
drop t1 as soon as we don't need it anymore, and then turn
on binlogging again.
Many dump threads can exist due to a way the new version of mtr governs suites.
For this immediate problem the test is refined not to use I_S but rather to reconnect
explicitly with preserving logics of a an old target bug fixes verification.
Problem: the test set @@global.init_slave to garbage at a time
which was not guaranteed to be after the time when the slave's
SQL thread used it. That would cause the slave's SQL thread to
stop in rare cases.
Fix: The test does not care about the value of
@@global.init_slave, except that it should be different on
master and slave. Hence, we set @@global.init_slave to
something that is valid SQL.
