PURGE BINARY LOGS did not always purge binary logs. This commit fixes
some of the issues and adds notifications if a binary log cannot be
purged.
User visible changes:
- 'PURGE BINARY LOG TO log_name' and 'PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE date'
worked differently. 'TO' ignored 'slave_connections_needed_for_purge'
while 'BEFORE' did not. Now both versions ignores the
'slave_connections_needed_for_purge variable'.
- 'PURGE BINARY LOG..' commands now returns 'note' if a binary log cannot
be deleted like
Note 1375 Binary log 'master-bin.000004' is not purged because it is
the current active binlog
- Automatic binary log purges, based on date or size, will write a
note to the error log if a binary log matching the size or date
cannot yet be deleted.
- If 'slave_connections_needed_for_purge' is set from a config or
command line, it is set to 0 if Galera is enabled and 1 otherwise
(old default). This ensures that automatic binary log purge works
with Galera as before the addition of
'slave_connections_needed_for_purge'.
If the variable is changed to 0, a warning will be printed to the error
log.
Code changes:
- Added THD argument to several purge_logs related functions that needed
THD.
- Added 'interactive' options to purge_logs functions. This allowed
me to remove testing of sql_command == SQLCOM_PURGE.
- Changed purge_logs_before_date() to first check if log is applicable
before calling can_purge_logs(). This ensures we do not get a
notification for logs that does not match the remove criteria.
- MYSQL_BIN_LOG::can_purge_log() will write notifications to the user
or error log if a log cannot yet be removed.
- log_in_use() will return reason why a binary log cannot be removed.
Changes to keep code consistent:
- Moved checking of binlog_format for Galera to be after Galera is
initialized (The old check never worked). If Galera is enabled
we now change the binlog_format to ROW, with a warning, instead of
aborting the server. If this change happens a warning will be printed to
the error log.
- Print a warning if Galera or FLASHBACK changes the binlog_format
to ROW. Before it was done silently.

1. wait for the binlog thread to reach the certain state, don't use
a debug_sync that's incorrectly placed to detect the state
2. no need to do a (non-deterministic) `show binlog events` to verify
what is guaranteed by the directly preceding line
Adjust full test suite to work with GTID.
Huge patch, mainly due to having to update .result file for all SHOW BINLOG
EVENTS and mysqlbinlog outputs, where the new GTID events pop up.
Everything was painstakingly checked to be still correct and valid .result
file updates.
Make the commit checkpoint inside InnoDB be asynchroneous.
Implement a background thread in binlog to do the writing and flushing of
binlog checkpoint events to disk.
Introduce a new storage engine API method commit_checkpoint_request().
This is used to replace the fsync() at the end of every storage engine
commit with a single fsync() when a binlog is rotated.
Binlog rotation is now done during group commit instead of being
delayed until unlog(), removing some server stall and avoiding an
expensive lock/unlock of LOCK_log inside unlog().
Keep track of how many pending XIDs (transactions that are prepared in
storage engine and written into binlog, but not yet durably committed
on disk in the engine) there are in each binlog.
When the count of one binlog drops to zero, write a new binlog checkpoint
event, telling which is the oldest binlog with pending XIDs.
When doing XA recovery after a crash, check the last binlog checkpoint
event, and scan all binlog files from that point onwards for XIDs that
must be committed if found in prepared state inside engine.
Remove the code in binlog rotation that waits for all prepared XIDs to
be committed before writing a new binlog file (this is no longer necessary
when recovery can scan multiple binlog files).
