The problem is that creating a event could fail if the value of
the variable server_id didn't fit in the originator column of
the event system table. The cause is two-fold: it was possible
to set server_id to a value outside the documented range (from
0 to 2^32-1) and the originator column of the event table didn't
have enough room for values in this range.
The log tables (general_log and slow_log) also don't have a proper
column type to store the server_id and having a large server_id
value could prevent queries from being logged.
The solution is to ensure that all system tables that store the
server_id value have a proper column type (int unsigned) and that
the variable can't be set to a value that is not within the range.
The problem here seem to be that when mysql
is redirecting stderr to a file, stderr becomes
buffered, whereas it is unbuffered by definition.
The solution is to unbuffer it by setting buffer
to null.
for bug #15936.
On some platforms fenv.h may #undef the min/max macros
defined in my_global.h.
Fixed by moving the #include directive for fenv.h from
mysqld.cc to my_global.h before definitions for min/max.
- Add support for setting it as a server commandline argument
- Add support for those switches:
= no_index_merge
= no_index_merge_union
= no_index_merge_sort_union
= no_index_merge_intersection
Both of our own implementations of rint(3) were inconsistent with the
most common behavior of rint() on those platforms that have it: round
to nearest, break ties by rounding to nearest even.
Fixed by leaving just one implementation of rint() in our source tree,
and changing its behavior to match the most common native
implementations on other platforms.
The check for root-ness would signal an error. Errors would make the
server exit before usage (help) information was printed.
Now, test for whether we want help regardless of whether we're going
to exit with an error. If plugins are not initialized by the time we
print usage information, inform the user that some parameters are
missing.
Bounds-checks and blocksize corrections were applied to user-input,
but constants in the server were trusted implicitly. If these values
did not actually meet the requirements, the user could not set change
a variable, then set it back to the (wonky) factory default or maximum
by explicitly specifying it (SET <var>=<value> vs SET <var>=DEFAULT).
Now checks also apply to the server's presets. Wonky values and maxima
get corrected at startup. Consequently all non-offsetted values the user
sees are valid, and users can set the variable to that exact value if
they so desire.
Added global status variable 'Queries' which represents
total amount of queries executed by server including
statements executed by SPs.
note: It's old behaviour of 'Questions' variable.
The MONTHNAME/DAYNAME functions
returns binary string, so the LOWER/UPPER functions
are not effective on the result of MONTHNAME/DAYNAME call.
Character set of the MONTHNAME/DAYNAME function
result has been changed to connection character set.
The problem appears often in conjuction with temp files, when temp-pool is used, so that names of temp files are not unique.
The reason is that rapid deletiion and creation of fiiles with the same name on Windows is not guaranteed to succeed. File disappears from the file system only when the last handle to it is closed. If for example a virus scanner, a backup or indexing application opens the temp file just before MySQL deletes it, the file will enter "delete pending" state. In this state,it is not possible to open the file , or create a file with the same name (CreateFile returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENED, posix open returns EACESS)
Fix (rather a cheap workarounf) is not to use temp-pool when working with temporary files- this will make filenames unique.
With this patch , temp- pool setting will be ignored on anything but Linux(the option only made sense for Linux since its invention anyway).
The problem here is that embedded server starts handle_thread manager
thread on mysql_library_init() does not stop it on mysql_library_end().
At shutdown, my_thread_global_end() waits for thread count to become 0,
but since we did not stop the thread it will give up after 5 seconds.
Solution is to move shutdown for handle_manager thread from kill_server()
(mysqld specific) to clean_up() that is used by both embedded and mysqld.
This patch also contains some refactorings - to avoid duplicate code,
start_handle_manager() and stop_handle_manager() functions are introduced.
Unused variables are eliminated. handle_manager does not rely on global
variable abort_loop anymore to stop (abort_loop is not set for embedded).
Note: Specifically on Windows and when using DBUG version of libmysqld,
the complete solution requires removing obsolete code my_thread_init()
from my_thread_var(). This has a side effect that a DBUG statement
after my_thread_end() can cause thread counter to be incremented, and
embedded will hang for some seconds. Or worse, my_thread_init() will
crash if critical sections have been deleted by the global cleanup
routine that runs in a different thread.
This patch also fixes and revert prior changes for Bug#38293
"Libmysqld crash in mysql_library_init if language file missing".
Root cause of the crash observed in Bug#38293 was bug in my_thread_init()
described above
The SHOW VARIABLES LIKE .../SELECT @@/SELECT ... FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VARIABLES
were assuming that all the system variables are in system charset (UTF-8).
However the variables that are settable through command line will have a different
character set (character_set_filesystem).
Fixed the server to remember the correct character set of basedir, datadir, tmpdir,
ssl, plugin_dir, slave_load_tmpdir, innodb variables; init_connect and init_slave
variables and use it when processing data.
That's a Win-specific error.
When we create libmysqld.dll we have many libraries like mysys, dbug,
strings, etc linked into that dll, so the application built upon
this library shouldn't link these libraries to itself, rather use
those inside the dll.
Fixed by redirecting calls into the libmysqld.dll

status
The problem appears to be a race condition, when service is being
stopped right after startup. We set the service status to SERVICE_RUNNING
way too early it cannot yet handle stop requests - initialization has
not finished and hEventShutdown that signals server to stop is not yet
created. If somebody issues "net stop MySQL" at this time, MySQL is not
informed about the stop and continues to run as usual, while
NTService::ServiceMain() stucks forever waiting for mysql's "main" thread
to finish.
Solution is to remain in SERVICE_START_PENDING status until after server
initialization is fully complete and only then change the status to
SERVICE_RUNNING. In SERVICE_START_PENDING we do not accept service control
requests, i.e it is not possible to stop service in that time.
Several functions (mostly in mysqld.cc) directly call
exit() function in case of errors, which is not a desired
behaviour expecially in the embedded-server library.
Fixed by making these functions return error sign instead
of exiting.

When running Stored Routines the Status Variable "Questions" was wrongly
incremented. According to the manual it should contain the "number of
statements that clients have sent to the server"
Introduced a new status variable 'questions' to replace the query_id
variable which currently corresponds badly with the number of statements
sent by the client.
The new behavior is ment to be backward compatible with 4.0 and at the
same time work with new features in a similar way.
This is a backport from 6.0
