Multiple charset support for InnoDB; note that if you create tables and the default charset-collation is not latin1_swedish_ci, then you cannot use those tables if you downgrade to 4.0 again
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
Allow always DROPping of a table which is only referenced by FOREIGN KEY constraints from the same table
Many files:
Do not let REPLACE to perform internally an UPDATE if the table is referenced by a FOREIGN KEY: the manual says that REPLACE must resolve a duplicate key error semantically with DELETE(s) + INSERT, and not by an UPDATE; the internal update caused foreign key checks and cascaded operations to behave in a semantically wrong way
Fix bug #2167: generate foreign key id's locally for each table, in the form databasename/tablename_ibfk_number; if the user gives the constraint name explicitly remember it; these changes should ensure that foreign key id's in a slave are the same as in the master, and DROP FOREIGN KEY does not break replication
sync0sync.c:
UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG caused assertion in the creation of the doublewrite buffer, if we do not allow thousands of latches per thread
DROP DATABASE now assumes RAID directories are in hex. (Bug #2627)
Don't increment 'select_full_range' and similar statistics for EXPLAIN queries. (Bug #2506)
Test in configure if pthread_key_delete() exists (to fix compile problem on SCO) (Bug #2461)
Change print format of FOREIGN KEY constraints spanning multiple databases to <backquote>databasename<backquote>.<backquote>tablename<backquote>; but when parsing them we must also accept <backquote>databasename.tablename<backquote>, because that was the output format in < 4.0.18
Change print format of FOREIGN KEY constraints spanning multiple databases to: .; but we when parsing them we must also accept , because that was the output format in < 4.0.18
Remove redundant code; parse both the database name and the table name in a FOREIGN KEY constraint with quotes in mind
row0mysql.c, ha_innodb.cc, sql_table.cc:
Return error message Cannot delete or update a parent row... if we try to drop a table which is referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint, and the user has not set foreign_key_checks=0
Fix bug #2483 with InnoDB, UNIQUE secondary index, and NULL values in that unique index; with the IS NULL predicate, InnoDB returned only the first matching row, though there can be many
Fix bug: FOREIGN KEY ... ON UPDATE/DELETE NO ACTION must check the foreign key constraint, not ignore it. Peter Gulutzan said that NO ACTION should check the constraint as deferred, at the end of the SQL statement, while RESTRICT should check it immediately. Since we do not have defered constraints in InnoDB, this bug fix makes InnoDB to check NO ACTION constraints immediately, like it checks RESTRICT constraints.
If UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG was switched on, the error monitor thread could reserve a mutex BEFORE the sync debug system was initialized, and that caused a sync debug assertion in startup: move the 2 sec. sleep to a safer place; note that this is only heuristics, and in theory it can assert still
If MySQL tries to do SELECT from an InnoDB table, but has set no table locks at all in ::external_lock(), print a descriptive error message and assert; some subquery bugs were of this type
Fix bug: if purge of a table was not possible because its .ibd file was missing, trx->dict_operation_lock_mode was left to a wrong value, causing an assertion failure
Do not assert in log0log.c, line 856 if ib_logfiles are too small for innodb_thread_concurrency. Instead, print instructions how to adjust my.cnf and call exit(1).
Fix bug: if one updated a secondary index column so that its alphabetical value did not change (e.g., abc -> aBc) and rolled back the update, InnoDB failed to return the value in the secondary index to its original value
row0upd.h:
Correct typing error
sync0sync.ic:
Remove inadvertently pushed sync debug code
Fix assertion failure on line 713 of row0upd.c if there is a column prefix index and the last characters in the prefix are spaces: do not assume that the length of alphabetically equal strings is the same; fix a buglet which could cause InnoDB to think that a secondary index record was not locked though it had been updated in a way which did not alpahabetically change its value, e.g., abc -> aBc
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
Added option --max-record-length=# to myisamchk
Don't try repair twice if doing myisamchk --repair --force
Shared memory handler didn't clean up things on errors or shutdown
Fix the OS error 2 reported by Miguel and Mark in Windows crash recovery: a * had been forgotten from the path in directory scanning
ha_innodb.cc:
Set default directory in fil0fil.c right if we are running the Embedded Server Library, where the default dir of the process is not necessarily the MySQL datadir
