Archive engine returns wrong values for average record length
and max data length.
With this fix they're calculated as following:
- max data length is 2 ^ 63 where large files are supported
and INT_MAX32 where this is not supported;
- average record length is data length / records in data file.
platforms like AIX, HP-UX, and Solaris 8.
All these are upmerges from 5.1 which came too late to be
included when 5.4.2-beta was cloned, so they were applied
during the build phase.
SELECT with join (not only self-join) from archive table may
return incomplete result set, when result set size exceeds
join buffer size.
The problem was that archive row counter was initialzed too
early, when ha_archive::info() method was called. Later,
when optimizer exceeds join buffer, it attempts to reuse
handler without calling ha_archive::info() again (which is
correct).
Fixed by moving row counter initialization from
ha_archive::info() to ha_archive::rnd_init().
INSERT ... SELECT ...
Problem was that when bulk insert is used on an empty
table/partition, it disables the indexes for better
performance, but in this specific case it also tries
to read from that partition using an index, which is
not possible since it has been disabled.
Solution was to allow index reads on disabled indexes
if there are no records.
Also reverted the patch for bug#38005, since that was a workaround
in the partitioning engine instead of a fix in myisam.
All committed result differences have either been verified by me or copied from Oracle's provided
results (storage/innodb_plugin/mysql-test/*.result, storage/innodb_plugin/mysql-test/patches).

Next step: build, test fixes.
A REPLACE in the MERGE engine is actually a REPLACE
into one (FIRST or LAST) of the underlying MyISAM
tables. So in effect the server works on the meta
data of the MERGE table, while the real insert happens
in the MyISAM table.
The MERGE table has no index, while MyISAM has a
unique index. When a REPLACE into a MERGE table (
and the REPLACE conflicts with a duplicate in a
child table) is done, we try to access the duplicate
key information for the MERGE table. This information
actually does not exist, hence this results in a crash.
The problem can be resolved by modifying the MERGE
engine to provide us the duplicate key information
directly, instead of just returning the MyISAM index
number as the error key. Then the SQL layer (or "the
server") does not try to access the key_info of the
MERGE table, which does not exist.
The current patch modifies the MERGE engine to provide
the position for a record where a unique key violation
occurs.
1. BUG#21704 - Renaming column does not update FK definition
2. Changes in mysql-test/include/mtr_warnings.sql so that the testcase
for BUG#21704 doesn't fail because of the warnings generated.

Fix Bug#21704 Renaming column does not update FK definition
by checking whether a column that participates in a FK definition is being
renamed and denying the ALTER in this case.
The patch was originally developed by Davi Arnaut <Davi.Arnaut@Sun.COM>:
http://lists.mysql.com/commits/77714
and was later adjusted to conform to InnoDB coding style by me (Vasil),
I also added some more comments and moved the bug specific mysql-test to
a separate file to make it more manageable and flexible.
and base tables
myrg_attach_children() could reuse a buffer that was allocated
previously based on a definition of a child table. The problem
was that the child's definition might have been changed, so
reusing the buffer could lead to crashes or valgrind errors
under some circumstances.
Fixed by changing myrg_attach_children() so that the
rec_per_key_part buffer is reused only when the child table
have not changed, and reallocated otherwise (the old buffer is
deallocated if necessary).
