partition is corrupt
The main problem was that ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR
PARTITION took another code path (over mysql_alter_table instead of
mysql_admin_table) which differs in two ways:
1) alter table opens the tables in a different way than admin tables do
resulting in returning with error before it tried the command
2) alter table does not start to send any diagnostic rows to the client
which the lower admin functions continue to use -> resulting in
assertion crash
The fix:
Remapped ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR PARTITION to use
the same code path as ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR TABLE t.
Adding check in mysql_admin_table to setup the partition list for
which partitions that should be used.
Partitioned tables will still not work with
REPAIR TABLE/PARTITION USE_FRM, since that requires moving partitions
to tables, REPAIR TABLE t USE_FRM, and check that the data still
fulfills the partitioning function and then move the table back to
being a partition.
NOTE: I have removed the following functions from the handler
interface:
analyze_partitions, check_partitions, optimize_partitions,
repair_partitions
Since they are not longer needed.
THIS ALTERS THE STORAGE ENGINE API
Bug#31610 Remove outdated and redundant tests:
partition_02myisam partition_03ndb
Bug#32405 testsuite parts: partition_char_myisam wrong content
and cleanup of testsuite
- remove/correct wrong comments
- remove workarounds for fixed bugs
- replace error numbers with error names
- exclude subtests from execution which fail now because of
new limitations for partitioning functions
- remove code for the no more intended dual use
fast test in regression tests/slow test in testsuite
- analyze and fix problems with partition_char_innodb
- fix problems caused by last change of error numbers
- Introduce error name to error number mapping which makes
maintenance after next error renumbering easier
