A user could not override system-wide settings in their ~/.my.cnf,
because the DEFAULT_SYSCONFDIR was being searched last. Also, in
some configurations (especially when the --sysconfdir compile-time
option is set to /etc or /etc/mysql), the system-wide my.cnf file
was read multiple times, causing confusion and potential problems.
Rearrange default directories to conform to the manual and logic.
Move --sysconfdir=<path> (DEFAULT_SYSCONFDIR) from the last default
directory to the middle of the list. $HOME/.my.cnf should be last,
so the user is able to override the system-wide settings.
Change init_default_directories() to remove duplicates from the
list.
CPUs / Intel's ICC compile
The bug is a combination of two problems:
1. IA64/ICC MySQL binaries use glibc's qsort(), not the one in mysys.
2. The order relation implemented by join_tab_cmp() is not transitive,
i.e. it is possible to choose such a, b and c that (a < b) && (b < c)
but (c < a). This implies that result of a sort using the relation
implemented by join_tab_cmp() depends on the order in which
elements are compared, i.e. the result is implementation-specific. Since
choose_plan() uses qsort() to pre-sort the
join tables using join_tab_cmp() as a compare function, the results of
the sorting may vary depending on qsort() implementation.
It is neither possible nor important to implement a better ordering
algorithm in join_tab_cmp(). Therefore the only way to fix it is to
force our own qsort() to be used by renaming it to my_qsort(), so we don't depend
on linker to decide that.
This patch also "fixes" bug #20530: qsort redefinition violates the
standard.
- Grab the path from "configure --sysconfdir=<path>" and set it as
the first place to look for my.cnf files
Do this both in Makefiles for libmysql and mysys
- Patch provided by Francesco Riosa. Thank you!
Changed defaults option --instance to --defaults-group-suffix
Changed option handling to allow --defaults-file, --defaults-extra-file and --defaults-group-suffix to be given in any order
Changed MYSQL_INSTANCE to MYSQL_GROUP_SUFFIX
mysql_print_defaults now understands --defaults-group-suffix
Remove usage of my_tempnam() (not safe function)
if( -> if ( and while( to while (
which will by default exit(1) if malloc() fails, but can be set
to do something else by the calling program does, which mysqld
does to use my_malloc(..., MYF(MY_FAE)) instead. Also checks
allocation in conf_to_src utility program. (Bug #7003)
s/sleep/safe_sleep (thread safe); sleep 0/1/2/3/4/5/5/5 (get slave less late);
no message on error log (deadlock is too common sometimes), a global counter
instead (SHOW STATUS LIKE 'slave_retried_transactions').
Plus a fix for libmysql/Makefile.shared
work (prepared statements)" and after-review fixes:
- str_to_TIME renamed to str_to_datetime to pair with str_to_time
- functions str_to_time and str_to_TIME moved to sql-common
- send_data_str now supports MYSQL_TYPE_TIME, MYSQL_TIME_DATE,
MYSQL_TIME_DATETIME types of user input buffers.
- few more comments in the client library
- a test case added.
This ensures that my_file_info takes this the max number of files into account and one can now use --open-files-limit on windows to increase number of used files up to 2048
Here is another pack of changes about gathering common client code in
sql-common/client.c.
Now i symlink the client.c from sql/ and libmysql/. These directories
have client_settings.h files to be included to client.c. It contains
defines and declarations to compile client.c in appropriate manner.
Also i've added include/sql_common.h, containing declarations of what
is exported from client.c
I removed as many #ifdef-s from client.c as i dared to. I think it's better
push it with some extra #ifdef-s now (of course, if everythihg besides it is
ok) so other people can check the code.
Call pthread_mutex_destroy() on not used mutex.
Changed comments in .h and .c files from // -> /* */
Added detection of mutex on which one didn't call pthread_mutex_destroy()
Fixed bug in create_tmp_field() which causes a memory overrun in queries that uses "ORDER BY constant_expression"
Added optimisation for ORDER BY NULL
