Occasionally mysqlbinlog --hexdump failed with error:
ERROR 1064 (42000) at line ...: You have an error in your
SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL
server version for the right syntax to use near
'Query thread_id=... exec_time=... error_code=...
When the length of hexadecimal dump of binlog header was
divisible by 16, commentary sign '#' after header was lost.
The Log_event::print_header function has been modified to always
finish hexadecimal binlog header with "\n# ".
Adding an event that can be used to denote that an incident occured
on the master. The event can be used to denote a gap in the replication
stream, but can also be used to denote other incidents.
In addition, the injector interface is extended with functions to
generate an incident event. The function will also rotate the binary
log after generating an incident event to get a fresh binary log.
field does not work
Fix to prevent MyISAM from reading data from NULL BLOB.
Fix to make record comparison independent of values of unused bits in
record.
Updating binlog positions in tests.
This patch fixes problem that LOAD DATA could use different
character sets when loading files on master and on slave sides:
- Adding replication of thd->variables.collation_database
- Adding optional character set clause into LOAD DATA
Note, the second way, with explicit CHARACTER SET clause
should be the recommended way to load data using an alternative
character set.
The old way, using "SET @@character_set_database=xxx" should be
gradually depricated.
The problem happened because those tests were using "cp932" and "ucs2" without checking whether these character sets are available. This fix moves test parts to make character set specific parts be tested only if they are:
- some parts were moved to "ctype_ucs.test" and "ctype_cp932.test"
- some parts were moved to the newly added tests "innodb-ucs2.test", "mysqlbinglog-cp932.test" and "sp-ucs2.test"
- Removed not used variables and functions
- Added #ifdef around code that is not used
- Renamed variables and functions to avoid conflicts
- Removed some not used arguments
Fixed some class/struct warnings in ndb
Added define IS_LONGDATA() to simplify code in libmysql.c
I did run gcov on the changes and added 'purecov' comments on almost all lines that was not just variable name changes
Problem: mysqlbinlog_base64 failed sporadically.
Reason: Missing "flush logs" before running $MYSQL_BINLOG,
which could start dumping the log file before server
has finished writting into it.
Fix:
- implementing --force-if-open option to "mysqlbinlog"
- adding --disable-force-if-open to make $MYSQL_BINLOG
fail on non-closed log files, to garantee that nobody
will forget "flush logs" in the future.
- adding "flush logs" into all affected tests.
Problem: when loading mysqlbinlog dumps, CREATE PROCEDURE having semicolons
in their bodies failed.
Fix: Using safe delimiter "/*!*/;" to dump log entries.
The following is an excerption from the WL.
1. Change so that MIXED is default format
1.1 to change the default for command line --binlog-format
1.2 to alter global_system_variables.binlog_format calculation
basing on command line --binlog-format parameter and
its default.
2. Change test suite so that more testing is done by MIXED format.
2.1 to check if there are test cases requiring --binlog-foramt=statement via
`source include/have_binlog_format_statement.inc' and affected by
altering the latter to be "mixed".
2.2 to check the content of such vulnerable cases to find if
extending to the mixed does not modify results. In that case simply
substitute source arguments as explained.
2.3 if a test in mixed mode deals with features triggering
row-binlogging then if necessary we can switch explicitly
to statement mode or create another test to run with
non-recommended STATEMENT mode
Particullarily, extracting INSERT DELAYED
binlogging subtest for statement mode is performed, and
the snippet is moved into a separate test file.
Note that since now all three modes verify this use case
through 3 different tests.
No changes in item 3 of HLD appeared to be needed.
