On Intel x86 machines index selection by the MySQL query
optimizer could sometimes depend on the compiler version and
optimization flags used to build the server binary.
The problem was a result of a known issue with floating point
calculations on x86: since internal FPU precision (80 bit)
differs from precision used by programs (32-bit float or 64-bit
double), the result of calculating a complex expression may
depend on how FPU registers are allocated by the compiler and
whether intermediate values are spilled from FPU to memory. In
this particular case compiler versions and optimization flags
had an effect on cost calculation when choosing the best index
in best_access_path().
A possible solution to this problem which has already been
implemented in mysql-trunk is to limit FPU internal precision
to 64 bits. So the fix is a backport of the relevant code to
5.1 from mysql-trunk.

Bug#53417 my_getwd() makes assumptions on the buffer sizes which not always hold true
The mysys library contains many functions for rewriting file paths. Most of these
functions makes implicit assumptions on the buffer sizes they write to. If a path is put
in my_realpath() it will propagate to my_getwd() which assumes that the buffer holding
the path name is greater than 2. This is not true in cases.
In the special case where a VARBIN_ITEM is passed as argument to the LOAD_FILE function
this can lead to a crash.
This patch fixes the issue by introduce more safe guards agaist buffer overruns.
Iterative patch improvement. Previously committed patch
caused wrong result on Windows. The previous patch also
broke secure_file_priv for symlinks since not all file
paths which must be compared against this variable are
normalized using the same norm.
The server variable opt_secure_file_priv wasn't
normalized properly and caused the operations
LOAD DATA INFILE .. INTO TABLE ..
and
SELECT load_file(..)
to do different interpretations of the
--secure-file-priv option.
The patch moves code to the server initialization
routines so that the path always is normalized
once and only once.
It was also intended that setting the option
to an empty string should be equal to
lifting all previously set restrictions. This
is also fixed by this patch.

Another problem is that ftkey_nr has no other meaning
than serial number of fulltext index starting with 1.
We can't say if this key using built-in or external
parser basing on it's value. In other words we always
entered if-branch for external parser. At this point,
the only way to check if we use default parser is to
compare keyinfo::parser with &ft_default_parser.

Get rid of MIN_SORT_MEMORY, use MIN_SORT_BUFFER instead
(defined in myisamdef.h, has the same value and purpose).

A dbug-sync point is added to complement the regression test.
The problem was that the dbug facility was being used after the
per-thread dbug state had already been finalized. The was present
in a few functions which invoked decrement_handler_count, which
in turn invokes my_thread_end on Windows. In my_thread_end, the
per-thread dbug state is finalized. Any use after the state is
finalized ends up creating a new state.
The solution is to process the exit of a function before the
decrement_handler_count function is called.
sql/mysqld.cc:
Process the function exit before decrement_handler_count is
called, as it can end the per-thread dbug state on Windows.

It is well-known that due to concurrency issues, a slave can become
inconsistent when a transaction contains updates to both transaction and
non-transactional tables in statement and mixed modes.
In a nutshell, the current code-base tries to preserve causality among the
statements by writing non-transactional statements to the txn-cache which
is flushed upon commit. However, modifications done to non-transactional
tables on behalf of a transaction become immediately visible to other
connections but may not immediately get into the binary log and therefore
consistency may be broken.
In general, it is impossible to automatically detect causality/dependency
among statements by just analyzing the statements sent to the server. This
happen because dependency may be hidden in the application code and it is
necessary to know a priori all the statements processed in the context of
a transaction such as in a procedure. Moreover, even for the few cases that
we could automatically address in the server, the computation effort
required could make the approach infeasible.
So, in this patch we introduce the option
- "--binlog-direct-non-transactional-updates" that can be used to bypass
the current behavior in order to write directly to binary log statements
that change non-transactional tables.

When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.
When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9
With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.
The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.
Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to

As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().

just can be set on a slave server, and then the slave server executes
the argument each time the SQL thread starts.

This patch fixes three bugs as follows. First, aborting the server while purging
binary logs might generate orphan files due to how the purge operation was
implemented:
(purge routine - sql/log.cc - MYSQL_BIN_LOG::purge_logs)
1 - register the files to be removed in a temporary buffer.
2 - update the log-bin.index.
3 - flush the log-bin.index.
4 - erase the files whose names where register in the temporary buffer
in step 1.
Thus a failure while executing step 4 would generate an orphan file. Second,
a similar issue might happen while creating a new binary as follows:
(create routine - sql/log.cc - MYSQL_BIN_LOG::open)
1 - open the new log-bin.
2 - update the log-bin.index.
Thus a failure while executing step 1 would generate an orphan file.
To fix these issues, we record the files to be purged or created before really
removing or adding them. So if a failure happens such records can be used to
automatically remove dangling files. The new steps might be outlined as follows:
(purge routine - sql/log.cc - MYSQL_BIN_LOG::purge_logs)
1 - register the files to be removed in the log-bin.~rec~ placed in
the data directory.
2 - update the log-bin.index.
3 - flush the log-bin.index.
4 - delete the log-bin.~rec~.
(create routine - sql/log.cc - MYSQL_BIN_LOG::open)
1 - register the file to be created in the log-bin.~rec~
placed in the data directory.
2 - open the new log-bin.
3 - update the log-bin.index.
4 - delete the log-bin.~rec~.
(recovery routine - sql/log.cc - MYSQL_BIN_LOG::open_index_file)
1 - open the log-bin.index.
2 - open the log-bin.~rec~.
3 - for each file in log-bin.~rec~.
3.1 Check if the file is in the log-bin.index and if so ignore it.
3.2 Otherwise, delete it.
The third issue can be described as follows. The purge operation was allowing
to remove a file in use thus leading to the loss of data and possible
inconsistencies between the master and slave. Roughly, the routine was only
taking into account the dump threads and so if a slave was not connect the
file might be delete even though it was in use.

If --log-bin is set to a directory name with the trailing 'FN_LIBCHAR',

Bug#31621: Windows server hanging during shutdown using named pipes
and idle connection
Problem: when idle pipe connection is forcefully closed with KILL
statement or when the server goes down, thread that is closing connection
would hang infinitely in CloseHandle(). The reason for the hang is that
named pipe operations are performed synchronously. In this mode all IOs
on pipe are serialized, that is CloseHandle() will not abort ReadFile()
in another thread, but wait for ReadFile() to complete.
The fix implements asynchrnous mode for named pipes, where operation of file
are not synchronized. Read/Write operation would fire an async IO and wait for
either IO completion or timeout.
Note, that with this patch timeouts are properly handled for named pipes.
Post-review: Win32 timeout code has been fixed for named pipes and shared
memory. We do not store pointer to NET in vio structure, only the read and
write timeouts.
include/violite.h:
Add pipe_overlapped to Vio structure for async IO for named pipes.

Use asynchronous pipe IO.
sql/mysqld.cc:

vio/vio.c:
-Refactor timeouts for win32 protocols: shared memory and named pipes.

to NET. New function vio_win32_timeout called indirectly via
vio_timeout changes these values.
vio/vio_priv.h:
Remove vio_ignore_timeout.
Add vio_win32_timeout to be used for named pipes and shared memory.
vio/viosocket.c:
Use async IO for named pipes.
After issuing IO, wait for either IO completion, pipe_close_event
or timeout.
Refactor timeouts for named pipe and shared memory.
Implemented the server infrastructure for the fix:
1. Added a function LEX_STRING *thd_query_string(THD) to return
a LEX_STRING structure instead of char *.
This is the function that must be called in innodb instead of
thd_query()
2. Did some encapsulation in THD : aggregated thd_query and
thd_query_length into a LEX_STRING and made accessor and mutator
methods for easy code updating.
3. Updated the server code to use the new methods where applicable.
Backport from 6.0 to 5.1.
Only those sync points are included, which are used in debug_sync.test.
The Debug Sync Facility allows to place synchronization points
in the code:
open_tables(...)
DEBUG_SYNC(thd, "after_open_tables");
lock_tables(...)
When activated, a sync point can
- Send a signal and/or
- Wait for a signal
Nomenclature:
- signal: A value of a global variable that persists
until overwritten by a new signal. The global
variable can also be seen as a "signal post"
or "flag mast". Then the signal is what is
attached to the "signal post" or "flag mast".
- send a signal: Assign the value (the signal) to the global
variable ("set a flag") and broadcast a
global condition to wake those waiting for
a signal.
- wait for a signal: Loop over waiting for the global condition until
the global value matches the wait-for signal.

The thing is that Sun Studio compiler calls destructor of stack
objects when pthread_exit() is called. That triggered an assertion
in DBUG_ENTER()/DBUG_RETURN() validation logic (if DBUG_ENTER() is
used in the beginning of function, all returns should be replaced
by DBUG_RETURN/DBUG_VOID_RETURN macros).
A fix is to explicitly use DBUG_LEAVE macro.

Initialize LOCK_open as a adapative mutex on platforms where the
PTHREAD_ADAPTIVE_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP macro is available. The flag
indicates that a thread should spin (busy wait) for some time on a

to alleviate performance problems due to LOCK_open being a highly
contended mutex.

The maximum value of the max_join_size variable is set by converting
a signed type (long int) with negative value (-1) to a wider unsigned
type (unsigned long long), which yields the largest possible value of
the wider unsigned type -- as per the language conversion rules. But,
depending on build options, the type of the max_join_size might be a
shorter type (ha_rows - unsigned long) which causes the warning to be
thrown once the large value is truncated to fit.
The solution is to ensure that the maximum value of the variable is
always set to the maximum value of integer type of max_join_size.
Furthermore, it would be interesting to always have a fixed type for
this variable, but this would incur in a change of behavior which is
not acceptable for a GA version. See Bug#35346.
