Allow for configuration of the maximum number of indexes per table.
Added and used a configure.in macro.
Replaced fixed limits by the configurable limit.
Limited MyISAM indexes to its hard limit.
Fixed a bug in opt_range.cc for many indexes with InnoDB.
Tested for 2, 63, 64, 65, 127, 128, 129, 255, 256, and 257 indexes.
Testing this part of the bugfix requires rebuilding of the server
with different options. This cannot be done with our test suite.
Therefore I added the necessary test files to the bug report.
If you repeat the tests, please note that the ps_* tests fail for
everything but 64 indexes. This is because of differences in the
meta data, namely field lengths for index names etc.
The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
Split TABLE to TABLE and TABLE_SHARE (TABLE_SHARE is still allocated as part of table, will be fixed soon)
Created Field::make_field() and made Field_num::make_field() to call this
Added 'TABLE_SHARE->db' that points to database name; Changed all usage of table_cache_key as database name to use this instead
Changed field->table_name to point to pointer to alias. This allows us to change alias for a table by just updating one pointer.
Renamed TABLE_SHARE->real_name to table_name
Renamed TABLE->table_name to alias
Renamed TABLE_LIST->real_name to table_name
Changed my_error() to print error messages, which come from
arbitrary registered ranges of error messages. Messages can
be unregistered (and should be at end of the program).
Added registration of handler error messages.
Added a new mi_print_error() macro and a new
mi_report_error() function, which supply error
messages with a table name.
Added calls to mi_print_error() or mi_report_error()
at all places in MyISAM, where table corruption is detected.
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
"If 2 master threads with same-name temp table, slave makes bad binlog"
and (two birds with one stone) for
BUG#1240 "slave of slave breaks when STOP SLAVE was issud on parent slave
and temp tables".
Here is the design change:
in a slave running with --log-slave-updates, events are now logged with the
thread id they had on the master. So no more id conflicts between master threads,
but introduces id conflicts between one master thread and one normal
client thread connected to the slave. This is solved by storing the server id
in the temp table's name.
New test which requires mysql-test-run to be run with --manager,
otherwise it will be skipped.
Undoing a Monty's change (hum, a chill runs down my spine ;) which was
"Cleanup temporary tables when slave ends" in ChangeSet 1.1572.1.1.
The above query created a field of koi8r charset, not cp1251
Change:
CREATE TABLE a (a CHAR(1) CHARACTER SET utf8)
Length now means character length, not byte length.
The above creates a field that guarantees can store a multibyte value
1 character long. For utf8 the above creates a field that can store
3 bytes.
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
Plus a changeset which I had committed but forgot to push (and this changeset is lost on
another computer, so I recreate it here). This changeset is "user-friendly SHOW BINLOG EVENTS
and CHANGE MASTER TO when log positions < 4 are used.
Warning handling and initial prepared statement handling (last not complete yet)
Changed a lot of functions that returned 0/1 to my_bool type.
GRANT handling now uses read/write locks instead of mutex
Change basic net functions to use THD instead of NET
(needed for 4.1 protocol)
Use my_sprintf instead of sprintf() + strlen()
Added alloc_query() to be able to chare query initialization code with
prepared statements.
Cleanup handling of SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS and SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()
Note that the following test fails (will be fixed ASAP):
sub_select, union, rpl_rotate_logs and rpl_mystery22
Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
