innochecksum not built for --with-plugin-innodb_plugin --without-plugin-innobase
In 5.1, we can have the traditional "innobase" code
(built-in) or the new version "innodb" (plugin).
The help tool "innochecksum" is useful for both,
but its generation was coupled to "innobase" only.
Fix this by treating both "innobase" and "innodb"
equivalent in the configure phase,
this affects both "innochecksum" and the InnoDB documentation.
This patch was proposed by Mark Callaghan.
FAIL IN EMBEDDED SERVER
FreeBSD 64 bit needs the FP_X_DNML to fpsetmask() to prevent exceptions from
propagating into mysql (as a threaded application).
However fpsetmask() itself is deprecated in favor of fedisableexcept().
1. Fixed the #ifdef to check for FP_X_DNML instead of i386.
2. Added a configure.in check for fedisableexcept() and, if present,
this function is called insted of the fpsetmask().
No need for new tests, as the existing tests cover this already.
Removed the affected tests from the experimental list.
The problem is that although AIX implements bzero, its prototype
is not declared by default. Since AC_CHECK_FUNC(bzero) succeeds
even though a prototype is not declared, this breaks compilation
in C++ files where a prototype is required.
The solution is to only use bzero if a prototype is also declared.
.editrc on linux.
MySQL client when build with libedit support ignores
.editrc at startup.
The reason for this regression was the incluison of a
safety check, issetugid(), which is not available on
some linux platforms.
Fixed by adding an equivalent check for platforms which
have get[e][u|g]id() set of functions.
Bug #55755 : Date STD variable signness breaks server on FreeBSD and OpenBSD
* Added a check to configure on the size of time_t
* Created a macro to check for a valid time_t that is safe to use with datetime
functions and store in TIMESTAMP columns.
* Used the macro consistently instead of the ad-hoc checks introduced by 52315
* Fixed compliation warnings on platforms where the size of time_t is smaller than
the size of a long (e.g. OpenBSD 4.8 64 amd64).
Bug #52315: utc_date() crashes when system time > year 2037
* Added a correct check for the timestamp range instead of just variable size check to
SET TIMESTAMP.
* Added overflow checking before converting to time_t.
* Using a correct localized error message in this case instead of the generic error.
* Added a test suite.
* fixed the checks so that they check for unsigned time_t as well. Used the checks
consistently across the source code.
* fixed the original test case to expect the new error code.

Quoting from the bug report:
The pstack library has been included in MySQL since version
4.0.0. It's useless and should be removed.
Details: According to its own documentation, pstack only works
on Linux on x86 in 32 bit mode and requires LinuxThreads and a
statically linked binary. It doesn't really support any Linux
from 2003 or later and doesn't work on any other OS.
The --enable-pstack option is thus deprecated and has no effect.
Ensure that fdatasync is properly declared as on Mac OS X, the
function is available but there is no prototype. Also, port a
fix for a warning from the InnoDB plugin over to the builtin.
Enable the MySQL maintainer-specific development environment
(which add various warning related options to the compiler
flags) if debugging support is enabled.
Problem: The functions my_like_range_xxx() returned
badly formed maximum strings for Asian character sets,
which made problems for storage engines.
Fix:
- Removed a number my_like_range_xxx() implementations,
which were in fact dumplicate code pieces.
- Using generic my_like_range_mb() instead.
- Setting max_sort_char member properly for Asian character sets
- Adding unittest/strings/strings-t.c,
to test that my_like_range_xxx() return well-formed
min and max strings.
Notes:
- No additional tests in mysql/t/ available.
Old tests cover the affected code well enough.
Although the C standard mandates that sprintf return the number
of bytes written, some very ancient systems (i.e. SunOS 4)
returned a pointer to the buffer instead. Since these systems
are not supported anymore and are hopefully long dead by now,
simply remove the portability wrapper that dealt with this
discrepancy. The autoconf check was causing trouble with GCC.
Introduce a MySQL maintainer/developer mode that enables
a set of warning options for the C/C++ compiler. This mode
is intended to help improve the overall quality of the code.
The warning options are:
C_WARNINGS="-Wall -Wextra -Wunused -Wwrite-strings -Werror"
CXX_WARNINGS="$C_WARNINGS -Wno-unused-parameter"
Since -Wall is essentially a moving target, autoconf checks
are not run with warning options enabled, in particualr -Werror.
This decision might be revisited in the future. The patch also
fixes a mistake in the makefiles, where automake CXXFLAGS would
be set to CFLAGS.
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.

On Intel x86 machines index selection by the MySQL query
optimizer could sometimes depend on the compiler version and
optimization flags used to build the server binary.
The problem was a result of a known issue with floating point
calculations on x86: since internal FPU precision (80 bit)
differs from precision used by programs (32-bit float or 64-bit
double), the result of calculating a complex expression may
depend on how FPU registers are allocated by the compiler and
whether intermediate values are spilled from FPU to memory. In
this particular case compiler versions and optimization flags
had an effect on cost calculation when choosing the best index
in best_access_path().
A possible solution to this problem which has already been
implemented in mysql-trunk is to limit FPU internal precision
to 64 bits. So the fix is a backport of the relevant code to
5.1 from mysql-trunk.
BUILD/*: Add valgrind_configs=--with-valgrind.
BUILD/*: Remove -USAFEMALLOC from valgrind_flags.
configure.in: Add AC_ARG_WITH(valgrind) and HAVE_VALGRIND.
include/my_sys.h: Define a number of MEM_ wrappers for VALGRIND_ functions.
include/my_sys.h: Make TRASH do MEM_UNDEFINED().
include/m_string.h: Remove unused macro bzero_if_purify(A,B).
_mymalloc(): Declare MEM_UNDEFINED() on the allocated memory.
_myfree(): Declare MEM_NOACCESS() on the freed memory.
storage/innobase/include/univ.i: Enable UNIV_DEBUG_VALGRIND based on
HAVE_VALGRIND rather than HAVE_purify.
Possible things to do:
* In my_global.h, remove the defined(HAVE_purify) condition
from the _WIN32 uint3korr().
* In my_global.h *int*korr(), use | instead of +
in order to keep the Valgrind V bits accurate
* Consider replacing HAVE_purify with HAVE_VALGRIND
* Use VALGRIND_CREATE_BLOCK, VALGRIND_DISCARD in mem_root and similar places
