unknown 06fb8c2d10 BUG#29549 (Endians: test failures on Solaris):
Refactoring code to add parameter to pack() and unpack() functions with
purpose of indicating if data should be packed in little-endian or
native order. Using new functions to always pack data for binary log
in little-endian order. The purpose of this refactoring is to allow
proper implementation of endian-agnostic pack() and unpack() functions.

Eliminating several versions of virtual pack() and unpack() functions
in favor for one single virtual function which is overridden in
subclasses.

Implementing pack() and unpack() functions for some field types that
packed data in native format regardless of the value of the
st_table_share::db_low_byte_first flag.

The field types that were packed in native format regardless are:
Field_real, Field_decimal, Field_tiny, Field_short, Field_medium,
Field_long, Field_longlong, and Field_blob.

Before the patch, row-based logging wrote the rows incorrectly on
big-endian machines where the storage engine defined its own
low_byte_first() to be FALSE on big-endian machines (the default
is TRUE), while little-endian machines wrote the fields in correct
order. The only known storage engine that does this is NDB. In effect,
this means that row-based replication from or to a big-endian
machine where the table was using NDB as storage engine failed if the
other engine was either non-NDB or on a little-endian machine.

With this patch, row-based logging is now always done in little-endian
order, while ORDER BY uses the native order if the storage engine
defines low_byte_first() to return FALSE for big-endian machines.

In addition, the max_data_length() function available in Field_blob
was generalized to the entire Field hierarchy to give the maximum
number of bytes that Field::pack() will write.

sql/field.cc:
  Eliminating all two-argument pack() and unpack() functions and moving
  functionality into the four-argument version. The four argument version
  is introduced so that it is possible to avoid using the storage engine
  default when writing and reading the packed format (the unpacked format
  still uses the storage engine's default). This is used by row-based
  replication to write the fields in a storage engine- and endian-agnostic
  format.
  
  Packing integral and floating-point numbers in little-endian format
  (if requested).
  
  Using pad_char for the field instead of spaces (0x20) when unpacking.
  
  Adding some Doxygen documentation.
  ---
  Adding max_data_length() to denote the maximum number of bytes that
  pack() will write.
  
  Adding casts to remove warnings for debug printouts.
sql/field.h:
  Eliminating all virtual pack() and unpack() functions except the four-
  argument version, which now is the function that shall be overridden.
  The two-argument versions are convenience functions, to prevent changes
  to code that uses these.
  
  Adding code to pack integer numbers and floating-point numbers in
  little-endian format, if requested.
  ---
  Adding max_data_length() to denote the maximum number of bytes that
  pack() will write.
sql/log.cc:
  Removing debug printout causing crash when starting NDB on Solaris.
sql/log_event.cc:
  Adding missing #ifndef causing compile failure. Adding debug printouts.
sql/rpl_record.cc:
  Debriding code. Using new pack() and unpack() functions to always pack
  fields little-endian. Adding debug printouts.
  ---
  Using max_data_length() when packing field into row.
  
  Adding casts to debug printouts.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  Adding code that causes crash on Solaris machines since printf() cannot
  handle NULL values for strings properly.

This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run
the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in
this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it.

Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could
actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not
conflict with it.

All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please
read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the
problem:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-test-suite.html

If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests,
use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode,
the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run.
For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests
with an external server:

mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze

To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and
other relevant options.

With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back
to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some
tests cannot run with an external server.


You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new
file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test
extension. For example:

 xemacs t/test_case_name.test

 In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables,
 load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it.

 We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not
 conflict too much with existing tables).

 Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and
 end by dropping them again.  This ensures that you can run the test over
 and over again.
 
 If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your
 test case, you should create the result file as follows:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 or

 mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test

 If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and
 comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result

 mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test

 When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result
 - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should
   edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify
   that the bug is corrected in future releases.

To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into
a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the 
archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail
to bugs@lists.mysql.com
