An alternative implementation (replacing the one based on repertoire).
This implementation makes Field send itself to Protocol_text using
data type specific Protocol methods rather than field->val_str()
followed by protocol_text->store_str().
As now Field sends itself in the same way to all protocol types
(e.g. Protocol_binary, Protocol_text, Protocol_local),
the method Field::send_binary() was renamed just to Field::send().
Note, this change introduces symmetry between Field and Item,
because Items also send themself using a single method Item::send(),
which is used for *all* protocol types.
Performance improvement is achieved by the fact that Protocol_text
implements these data type specific methods using store_numeric_string_aux()
rather than store_string_aux(). The conversion now happens only when
character_set_results is not ASCII compatible character sets
(e.g. UCS2, UTF16, UTF32).
In the old code (before any MDEV-23162 work, e.g. as of 10.5.4),
Protocol_text::store(Field*) used val_str() for all data types.
So the execution went through the character set conversion routines
even for numeric and temporal data types.
Benchmarking summary (see details in MDEV-23478):
The new approach stably demonstrates additional improvement comparing
to the previous implementation (the smaller time - the better):

The post-build custom command to embed Vista elevation manifest into
mariadb-upgrade-wizard.exe seems to do
something nasty to the executable, perhaps it removes and recreates it.
Thus the previously created hardlink mysql_upgrade_wizard is not marked
to require elevation.
Solved by using MANIFESTUAC linker flag, rather than invoke mt.exe.
This avoids an extra post-build step that modifies mariadb-upgrade-wizard.exe
IFNULL(inet6_not_null_expr, 'foo') erroneously set its nullability to NOT NULL.
Fix:
- Moving the line "maybe_null= args[1]->maybe_null" before the call
of fix_length_and_dec2(), so the call of Type_handler method
Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes() can reset it when desired.
- Fixing Type_handler_inet6::Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes()
to ignore args[0] when detecting nullability of IFNULL().
In the merge eae968f62d, it turns out that
I had accidentally initiated an in-source build in the past, and
$MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_SQL was pointing to a stale copy of the executable in
the source directory, instead of the correct one in the build directory.
The test timeouts, because mtr is waiting for pid file.
The pid file is not there, because expected to fail mysqld startup
(duplicate named pipe name), this startup removed pid file of the running
mysqld instance.
To fix, split handle_connections_win() into the initialization part,
and accept/handle part, like it is done elsewhere.
The initialization part runs before pid file handling, and aborts on errors
, thus avoiding pid file overwrites.
The test encryption.create_or_replace would occasionally fail,
because some fil_space_t::n_pending_ops would never be decremented.
fil_crypt_find_space_to_rotate(): If rotate_thread_t::should_shutdown()
holds due to innodb_encryption_threads having been reduced, do
release the reference.
fil_space_remove_from_keyrotation(), fil_space_next(): Declare the
functions static, simplify a little, and define in the same compilation
unit with the only caller, fil_crypt_find_space_to_rotate().
fil_crypt_key_mutex: Remove (unused).

Problem:
The crash happened in FORMAT(double, dec>=31, 'de_DE').
The patch for MDEV-23118 (commit 0041dacc1b)
did not take into account that String::set_real() has a limit of 31
(FLOATING_POINT_DECIMALS) fractional digits. So for the range of 31..38
digits, set_real() switches to use:
- my_fcvt() - decimal point notation, e.g. 1.9999999999
- my_gcvt() - scientific notation, e.g. 1e22
my_gcvt() returned a shorter string than Item_func_format::val_str_ascii()
expected to get after the my_fcvt() call, so it crashed on assert.
Solution:
We cannot extend set_real() to use the my_fcvt() mode for the range of
31..38 fractional digits, because set_real() is used in a lot of places
and such a change will break everything.
Introducing String::set_fcvt() which always prints using my_fcvt()
for the whole range of decimals 0..38, supported by the FORMAT() function.
and
MDEV-23414 Assertion `res->charset() == item->collation.collation' failed in Type_handler_string_result::make_packed_sort_key_part
pack_sort_string() *must* take a collation from the Item, not from the
String value. Because when casting a string to _binary the original
String is not copied for performance reasons, it's reused but its
collation does not match Item's collation anymore.
Note, that String's collation cannot be simply changed to _binary,
because for an Item_string literal the original String must stay
unchanged for the duration of the query.

An unfortunate performance regression was introduced in
commit b1ab211dee (MDEV-15053)
that affects workloads where the working set is larger than
the buffer pool.
We used to terminate the loop in buf_LRU_scan_and_free_block()
when we succeeded to free a replaceable buffer pool block.
Due to the regression, we would keep freeing all replaceable
blocks until we reach the end of the list or encounter a block
that had never been accessed because it had been brought in
by read-ahead.
for the functionality that was part of the server for years
and is moved in 10.5 into a [statically linked] plugin
without changing the underlying code.
this makes it a weak dependency, signalling that ColumnStore can work
without jemalloc and that while jemalloc is desired, missing jemalloc
is not a fatal error.
