Fixed README with link to source
Merged InnoDB change to XtraDB
README:
Added information of where to find MariaDB code
storage/archive/ha_archive.cc:
Removed memset() of rows, a MariaDB checksum's doesn't touch not used data.
On shutdown(), Windows can drop traffic still queued for sending even if that
wasn't specifically requested. As a result, fatal errors (those after
signaling which the server will drop the connection) were sometimes only
seen as "connection lost" on the client side, because the server-side
shutdown() erraneously discarded the correct error message before sending
it.
If on Windows, we now use the Windows API to access the (non-broken) equivalent
of shutdown().

Backport from trunk
include/violite.h:
export mysql_socket_shutdown(). It lives in vio in the backport.
sql/mysqld.cc:
Go through our own shutdown() rather than straight to the POSIX one.
vio/viosocket.c:
Define mysql_socket_shutdown(). On UNIXoid systems, it's just a wrapper for shutdown(), but
on Window, it uses DisconnectEx, which is magic.

MEMORY LEAK.
Background:
- There are caches for stored functions and stored procedures (SP-cache);
- There is no similar cache for events;
- Triggers are cached together with TABLE objects;
- Those SP-caches are per-session (i.e. specific to each session);
- A stored routine is represented by a sp_head-instance internally;
- SP-cache basically contains sp_head-objects of stored routines, which
have been executed in a session;
- sp_head-object is added into the SP-cache before the corresponding
stored routine is executed;
- SP-cache is flushed in the end of the session.
The problem was that SP-cache might grow without any limit. Although this
was not a pure memory leak (the SP-cache is flushed when session is closed),
this is still a problem, because the user might take much memory by
executing many stored routines.
The patch fixes this problem in the least-intrusive way. A soft limit
(similar to the size of table definition cache) is introduced. To represent
such limit the new runtime configuration parameter 'stored_program_cache'
is introduced. The value of this parameter is stored in the new global
variable stored_program_cache_size that used to control the size of SP-cache
to overflow.
The parameter 'stored_program_cache' limits number of cached routines for
each thread. It has the following min/default/max values given from support:
min = 256, default = 256, max = 512 * 1024.
Also it should be noted that this parameter limits the size of
each cache (for stored procedures and for stored functions) separately.
The SP-cache size is checked after top-level statement is parsed.
If SP-cache size exceeds the limit specified by parameter
'stored_program_cache' then SP-cache is flushed and memory allocated for
cache objects is freed. Such approach allows to flush cache safely
when there are dependencies among stored routines.
sql/mysqld.cc:
Added global variable stored_program_cache_size to store value of
configuration parameter 'stored-program-cache'.
sql/mysqld.h:
Added declaration of global variable stored_program_cache_size.
sql/sp_cache.cc:
Extended interface for sp_cache by adding helper routine
sp_cache_enforce_limit to control size of stored routines cache for
overflow. Also added method enforce_limit into class sp_cache that
implements control of cache size for overflow.
sql/sp_cache.h:
Extended interface for sp_cache by adding standalone routine
sp_cache_enforce_limit to control size of stored routines cache
for overflow.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Added flush of sp_cache after processing of next sql-statement
received from a client.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
Added flush of sp_cache after preparation/execution of next prepared
sql-statement received from a client.
sql/sys_vars.cc:
Added support for configuration parameter stored-program-cache.

Problem : The basic problem is the way the thread sleeps in mysql-5.5 and also in mysql-5.1
when we execute a stop slave on windows platform.
On windows platform if the stop slave is executed after the master dies, we have
this long wait before the stop slave return a value. This is because there is a
sleep of the thread. The sleep is uninterruptable in the two above version,
which was fixed by Davi patch for the BUG#11765860 for mysql-trunk. Backporting
his patch for mysql-5.5 fixes the problem.
Solution : A new pair of mutex and condition variable is introduced to synchronize thread
sleep and finalization. A new mutex is required because the slave threads are
terminated while holding the slave thread locks (run_lock), which can not be
relinquished during termination as this would affect the lock order.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/r/rpl_start_stop_slave.result:
The result file associated with the test added.
mysql-test/suite/rpl/t/rpl_start_stop_slave.test:
A test to check the new functionality.
sql/rpl_mi.cc:
The constructor using the new mutex and condition variables for the master_info.
sql/rpl_mi.h:
The condition variable and mutex have been added for the master_info.
sql/rpl_rli.cc:
The constructor using the new mutex and condition variables for the realy_log_info.
sql/rpl_rli.h:
The condition variable and mutex have been added for the relay_log_info.
sql/slave.cc:
Use a timed wait on a condition variable to implement a interruptible sleep.
The wait is registered with the THD object so that the thread will be woken
up if killed.

The root cause is that after recent fixes around --debug variable (lp:909051)
the variable is now available in both release and debug builds, such that MTR
cannot tell a debug compiled server from optimized one.
To fix, assign a special default value 'disabled' for 'debug' variable in optimized build
and fix MTR to check for this special value to recognize optimized build.
and cryptic error 1126 message
The problem was that dlopen() related code was using just a subset
of the path normalization routines used in other places.
Fixed the expansion of the pre-dlopen() behavior for plugins and UDFs
to use a platform-dependent consistent encoding of the paths.
Fixed the error dlopen() error handling to take the correct error message
and strip off the trailing newline character(s).
Fixed tests to do a platform independent replace of directories and to
account for the traling slash.

Fixed memory leak printing when doing 'mysqld --version', 'mysqld --debug --help' and 'mysqld --debug --help --verbose'
mysys/my_init.c:
Moved checking if we should call DBUG_END() before my_thread_end() as otherwise we will not free DBUG variables and files.
mysys/thr_lock.c:
Fixed compiler warning
sql/mysqld.cc:
Fixed memory leaks when using mysqld --help and mysqld --version
Added --debug as an option that works for all builds. For non debug builds we now get a warning.
strings/dtoa.c:
Fixed valgrind warning (c could contain data outside of the given string)
Added a global read-only option slow-start-timeout to control the
Windows service control manager's service start timeout, that was
currently hard-coded to be 15 seconds.
The default of the new option is 15 seconds.
The timeout can also be set to 0 (to mean no timeout applicable).

* rename all debugging related command-line options
and variables to start from "debug-", and made them all
OFF by default.
* replace "MySQL" with "MariaDB" in error messages
* "Cast ... converted ... integer to it's ... complement"
is now a note, not a warning
* @@query_cache_strip_comments now has a session scope,
not global.
