crash for, e.g., NDB):
Before, mysqlbinlog printed table map events as a separate statement, so
when executing the event, the opened table was subsequently closed
when the statement ended. Instead, the row-based events that make up
a statement are now printed as *one* BINLOG statement, which means
that the table maps and the following *_rows_log_event events are
executed fully before the statement ends.
Changing implementation of BINLOG statement to be able to read the
emitted format, which now consists of several chunks of BASE64-encoded
data.
The problem is that on some Mac OS X-es the file writing/reading
call with zero bytes to read/write returns error.
So here i try to eliminate that kinds of calls.
event' from master"
Since there is no repeatable test case, and this is obviously wrong, this is
the most conservative change that might possibly work.
The syscall read() wasn't checked for a negative return value for an
interrupted read. The kernel sys_read() returns -EINTR, and the "library"
layer maps that to return value of -1 and sets errno to EINTR. It's
impossible (on Linux) for read() to set errno EINTR without the return
value being -1 .
So, if we're checking for EINTR behavior, we should not require that the
return value be zero.
Too many cursors (more than 1024) could lead to memory corruption.
This affects both, stored routines and C API cursors, and the
threshold is per-server, not per-connection. Similarly, the
corruption could happen when the server was under heavy load
(executing more than 1024 simultaneous complex queries), and this is
the reason why this bug is fixed in 4.1, which doesn't support
cursors.
The corruption was caused by a bug in the temporary tables code, when
an attempt to create a table could lead to a write beyond allocated
space. Note, that only internal tables were affected (the tables
created internally by the server to resolve the query), not tables
created with CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE. Another pre-condition for the
bug is TRUE value of --temp-pool startup option, which, however, is a
default.
The cause of a bug was that random memory was overwritten in
bitmap_set_next() due to out-of-bound memory access.
and BUG#19208 "Test 'rpl000017' hangs on Windows".
Both bugs are caused by attempting to delete an opened
file and to create immediatedly a new one with the same
name. On Windows it can be supported only on NT-platforms
(by using FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode and with renaming the
file before deletion). Because deleting not-closed files
is not supported on all platforms (e.g. Win 98|ME) this
is to be considered harmful and should be eliminated by
a "code redesign".
