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.
config/ac-macros/maintainer.m4:
Add a set of default compiler flags used when in maintainer mode.
configure.in:
Hook into the maintainer mode. Disabled by default.
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
client/mysqldump.c:
Pass my_free directly as its signature is compatible with the
callback type -- which wasn't the case for free_table_ent.
The atomic operations implementation on 5.1 has a few problems,
which might cause tests to abort randomly. Since no code in 5.1
uses atomic operations, simply remove the code.

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

code (unreachable) and ignored return values.

Backport the patch from 6.0 by Ingo Struewing:
revid:ingo.struewing@sun.com-20091028183659-6kmv1k3gdq6cpg4d
Bug#36171 - CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE and MERGE engine
In former MySQL versions, up to 5.1.23/6.0.4 it was possible to create
temporary MERGE tables with non-temporary MyISAM tables.
This has been changed in the mentioned version due to Bug 19627
(temporary merge table locking). MERGE children were locked through
the parent table. If the parent was temporary, it was not locked and
so the children were not locked either. Parallel use of the MyISAM
tables corrupted them.
Since 6.0.6 (WL 4144 - Lock MERGE engine children), the children are
locked independently from the parent. Now it is possible to allow
non-temporary children with a temporary parent. Even though the
temporary MERGE table itself is not locked, each non-temporary
MyISAM table is locked anyway.
NOTE: Behavior change: In 5.1.23/6.0.4 we prohibited non-temporary
children with a temporary MERGE table. Now we re-allow it.
An important side-effect is that temporary tables, which overlay
non-temporary MERGE children, overlay the children in the MERGE table.

storage/myisammrg/ha_myisammrg.cc:
Changed constraint for temporary state of tables.
and a backport of relevant changes from the 6.0
version of the fix done by Ingo Struewing.
The bug itself was fixed by the patch for Bug#54811.
MyISAMMRG engine would try to use MMAP on its children
even on platforms that don't support it and even if
myisam_use_mmap option was off.
This lead to an infinite hang in INSERT ... SELECT into
a MyISAMMRG table when the destination MyISAM table
was also selected from.
A bug in duplicate detection fixed by 54811 was essential to
the hang - when a duplicate is detected, the optimizer
disables the use of memory mapped files, and it wasn't the case.
The patch below is also to not turn on MMAP on children tables
if myisam_use_mmap is off.
A test case is added to cover MyISAMMRG and myisam_use_mmap
option.

and clarifies the invariant in dict_table_get_on_id().
In Mar 2007 Marko observed a crash during recovery, the crash resulted from
an UNDO operation on a system table. His solution was to acquire an X lock on
the data dictionary, this in hindsight was an overkill. It is unclear what
caused the crash, current hypothesis is that it was a memory corruption.
The X lock results in performance issues by when undoing changes due to
rollback during normal operation on regular tables.
Why the change is safe:
======================
The InnoDB code has changed since the original X lock change was made. In the
new code we always lock the data dictionary in X mode during startup when
UNDOing operations on the system tables (this is a given). This ensures that
the crash Marko observed cannot happen as long as all transactions that update
the system tables follow the standard rules by setting the appropriate DICT_OP
flag when writing the log records when they make the changes.
If transactions violate the above mentioned rule then during recovery (at
startup) the rollback code (see trx0roll.c) will not acquire the X lock
and we will see the crash again. This will however be a different bug.

Bug#54679: alter table causes compressed row_format to revert to compact
ha_innobase::create(): Add the local variable row_type = form->s->row_type.
Adjust it to ROW_TYPE_COMPRESSED when ROW_FORMAT is not specified or inherited
but KEY_BLOCK_SIZE is. Observe the inherited ROW_FORMAT even when it is not
explicitly specified.
innodb_bug54679.test: New test, to test the bug and to ensure that there are
no regressions. (The only difference in the test result without the patch
applied is that the first ALTER TABLE changes ROW_FORMAT to Compact.)
