Merge InnoDB-4.0.14: SAVEPOINT now implemented; InnoDB now accepts also column prefix keys; crashing bug in ON UPDATE CASCADE fixed; page checksum formula fixed
Add syntax SAVEPOINT id and ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT id. This is compatible with DB2 and Oracle but not with SQL Server. Savepoints do not do anything yet, this is just parsing.
Free row buffer cache after each query for MyISAM tables.
Added table join option FORCE INDEX
Fixed core dump bug when connecting with hostname that could not be resolved.
Let MySQL 4.0 read 4.1 .frm files without 4.1 specific extensions
New variables @@rand_seed1 and @@rand_seed2 (used by replication)
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
Fixed that GRANT ... REQUIRE options are not forgot when doing new GRANT
Changed fn_ext to point at first '.' after directory.
FLUSH LOGS removed numerical extension for all future update logs.
Fixed the mysqld --help reports right values for --datadir and --bind-address
--log-binary=a.b.c now properly strips of .b.c
Fix that one can DROP UDF functions that was not loaded at startup
Made AND optional in REQUIRE
Added REQUIRE NONE
Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
SHOW DATABASES
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE
LOCK TABLES
REPLICATION SLAVE & REPLICATION CLIENT
SUPER
EXECUTE
All scripts & documentation is updated for this change.
Added better error messages for global privileges
(All commit emails since 4.0.1 checked)
This had to be done now, before the 4.1 tree changes to much, to make it easy to propagate bug fixes to the 4.1 tree.
first pull, merge,test, and get it to work.
The main change is the new replication code - now we have two slave threads
SQL thread and I/O thread. I have also re-written a lot of the code to
prepare for multi-master implementation.
I also documented IO_CACHE quite extensively and to some extend, THD class.
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.
New faster list iterators
Change list code to be simpler and faster
Optimize count(distinct)
New error messages for UNION
Make create_tmp_table more general to be usable by UNION
