The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table

(2nd try; Pekka kindly accepted to fix storage/ndb/src/kernel/blocks/dbtup/DbtupRoutines.cpp
and storage/ndb/src/kernel/vm/SimulatedBlock.cpp after I push).
- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
(Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code
- Added show status variable "compression" for checking that compression is turned on.
- Updated show status variable "have_openssl" to be set to DISABLED if server supports ssl but it's not turned on to accept incoming ssl connections.
- Setup server to accept ssl connections from clients ig that is supported by server
- New tests
- ssl - Run with ssl turned on
- ssl_compress - Run with ssl and compression turned on
- compress - Run with compression turned in
- Updated test
- openssl_1, rpl_openssl1 - Changed to run if server supports ssl
After SHOW TABLE STATUS last_insert_id wasn't cleaned, and next select
erroneously rewrites WHERE condition and returs a row;
5.0 isn't affected because of different SHOW TABLE STATUS handling.
last_insert_id cleanup added to mysqld_extend_show_tables().
Handlerton array is now created instead of using sys_table_types_st. All storage engines can now have inits and giant ifdef's are now gone for startup. No compeltely clean yet, handlertons will next be merged with sys_table_types. Federated and archive now have real cleanup if their inits fail.
"CHARACTER SET", "COLLATE", and "DEFAULT" are always
printed(excepting MODE_MYSQL323 and MODE_MYSQL40)
"AUTO_INCREMENT", "ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP" are printed only
if NO_FIELD_OPTIONS is not set.
problems which were introduced during work on WL#2787 "Add view definer/owner
to the view definition (.frm) to check privileges on used tables and stored
routines when using a VIEW."
In some cases it is better to use value from Security_context::host_or_ip
instead of value from Security_context::host since the latter can be NULL
in certain situations (When we can't resolve hostname or we have not done
this yet).
