accomodate EXPLAIN properly for all possible variant of UNION's
derived tables etc ...
This also fixes all reported (and unreported) bugs when EXPLAIN is
run on UNION's.
select_describe() now has a very dirty hack to avoid some problems
with transactional tables on table unlocking.
Code speedup is possible. For the moment all that was important was
that all tests are passed.
Bug fix when using --no-deaults
Sets ref_length to right value (faster rnd_pos() handling in InnoDB).
Fixed problem with multi-table-delete and InnoDB
Fixed problem with truncate table, which required a COMMIT before.
Fixed multi-table-delete bug with InnoDB.
Remove not used index from EXPLAIN
Test of unsigned BIGINT values
Fixes for queries-per-hour
Cleanup of replication code (comments and portability fixes)
Make most of the binary log code 4G clean
Changed syntax for GRANT ... QUERIES PER HOUR
Faster 'read_first_row' (Fixes slow 'preparing' state)
Read constant tables earlier, which provides better optimzations when using tables with <=1 row.
This also fixes a complicated bug involving const tables.
One more notice:
limiting number of queries per hour for different users has been done
on 4.0.1 , but I can port it to 3.23.*
This will require only certain changes, like number of columns in user
table.
I will also make a test case for it, after it is approved by Monty,
as result file will depend on the error message text.
* multi-table updates
* new paid feature for limiting number of queries per hour for users
* optional syntax for multi-table deletes
* optimization for SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS
* a small addition for CREATE .. SELECT that will be of future use
I know that all this will require many additions to documentation,
which I have not done, but I am at Arjen's disposal to help him document
all this.
Changed some sql_alloc() -> thd->alloc()
Removed a lot of compiler warnings on Linux Alpha (64 bit)
Fixed some core dumps on 64 bit systems (wrong type for packet_len)
Fixed race condition when using the binary log and INSERT DELAYED which could cause the binary log to have rows that was not yet written to MyISAM tables.
Use LONG_TIMEOUT (one year) instead of ~0 for long timeouts
Fixed error messages.
Fixed problem with const propagation when comparing columns of different types
Added missing InnoDB variables to SHOW VARIABLES.
Fixed bug when doing WHERE 'column_name=NULL' on an indexed column that had NULL values.
Fixed bug when doing 'LEFT JOIN ... ON (column_name = constant) WHERE column_name = constant'
