mysql_compare_tables() failed because of no long hash index generated
fields in prepared tmp_create_info. In comparison we should skip these
fields in the original table by:
1. skipping INVISIBLE_SYSTEM fields;
2. getting key_info from table->s instead of table as TABLE_SHARE
contains unwrapped key_info.
MDEV-28127 did is_equal() which compared vcol expressions
literally. But another table vcol expression is not equal because of
different table name.
We implement another comparison method is_identical() which respects
different table name in vcol comparison. If any field item points to
table_A and compared field item points to table_B, such items are
treated as equal in (table_A, table_B) comparison. This is done by
cloning table_B expression and renaming any table_B entries to table_A
in it.
Before commit 6112853cda in MySQL 4.1.1
introduced the parameter innodb_file_per_table, all InnoDB data was
written to the InnoDB system tablespace (often named ibdata1).
A serious design problem is that once the system tablespace has grown to
some size, it cannot shrink even if the data inside it has been deleted.
There are also other design problems, such as the server hang MDEV-29930
that should only be possible when using innodb_file_per_table=0 and
innodb_undo_tablespaces=0 (storing both tables and undo logs in the
InnoDB system tablespace).
The parameter innodb_change_buffering was deprecated
in commit b5852ffbee.
Starting with commit baf276e6d4
(MDEV-19229) the number of innodb_undo_tablespaces can be increased,
so that the undo logs can be moved out of the system tablespace
of an existing installation.
If all these things (tables, undo logs, and the change buffer) are
removed from the InnoDB system tablespace, the only variable-size
data structure inside it is the InnoDB data dictionary.
DDL operations on .ibd files was optimized in
commit 86dc7b4d4c (MDEV-24626).
That should have removed any thinkable performance advantage of
using innodb_file_per_table=0.
Since there should be no benefit of setting innodb_file_per_table=0,
the parameter should be deprecated. Starting with MySQL 5.6 and
MariaDB Server 10.0, the default value is innodb_file_per_table=1.
When trying to execute ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION with different
definitions, assertion
table->s->db_create_options == part_table->s->db_create_options
failed in compare_table_with_partition().
However, this execution should not be allowed since executing
'exchange partition' requires the identical structure of the two tables.
To fix the problem, I deleted the assertion code and added code that
returns an error that indicates tables have different definitions.
