Currently there are mechanism to mark a system variable as
deprecated, but they are only used to print warning messages
when a deprecated variable is set.
Leverage the existing mechanisms in order to make the
deprecation information available at the --help output of mysqld by:
* Moving the deprecation information (i.e `deprecation_substitute`
attribute) from the `sys_var` class into the `my_option` struct.
As every `sys_var` contains its own `my_option` struct, the access
to the deprecation information remains available to `sys_var`
objects. `my_getotp` functions, which works directly with
`my_option` structs, gain access to this information while building
the --help output.
* For plugin variables, leverages the `PLUGIN_VAR_DEPRECATED` flag
and set the `deprecation_substitute` attribute accordingly when
building the `my_option` objects.
* Change the `option_cmp` function to use the `deprecation_substitute`
attribute instead of the name when sorting the options. This way
deprecated options and the substitutes will be grouped together.

Two new information_schema views are added:
* PERIOD table -- columns TABLE_CATALOG, TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME,
PERIOD_NAME, START_COLUMN_NAME, END_COLUMN_NAME.
* KEY_PERIOD_USAGE -- works similar to KEY_COLUMN_USAGE, but for periods.
Columns CONSTRAINT_CATALOG, CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA, CONSTRAINT_NAME,
TABLE_CATALOG, TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME, PERIOD_NAME
Two new columns are added to the COLUMNS view:
IS_SYSTEM_TIME_PERIOD_START, IS_SYSTEM_TIME_PERIOD_END - contain YES/NO.
remove old deprecation helpers that were not used anywhere.
create new deprecation helpers and enforce their usage
this also removes inconsistencies in reporting deprecation:
sometimes it was ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX (1287),
sometimes ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX_NO_REPLACEMENT (1681),
sometimes a warning, sometimes a note.
it should always be
* ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX
* a warning (because it's something actionable, not purely informational)
otherwise we'd need to store sql_mode *per vcol*
(consider CREATE INDEX...) and how SHOW CREATE TABLE would
support that?
Additionally, get rid of vcol::expr_str, just to make sure
the string is always generated and never leaked in the
original form.
Print the warning(note):
YEAR(x) is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use YEAR(4) instead
on "CREATE TABLE ... YEAR(x)" or "ALTER TABLE MODIFY ... YEAR(x)", where x != 4

Detail:
The results for the "normal" server testcase variants
were already adjusted to the modified information_schema
content. Therefore just do the same for the embedded
server variants.
37167 funcs_1: Many tests fail if the embedded
server is used.
37164 funcs_1: Some tests fail if an optional
character set is missing.
+ some cleanup within the testsuite related to the
fixes above
+ some adjustments to open bugs on Mac OS X
2. Skip tests which suffer from bug
37456 funcs_1: Several tests crash when used
with embedded server
3. Minor cleanup in some tests
Bug#37167 funcs_1: Many tests fail if the embedded server is used.
Bug#37164 funcs_1: Some tests fail if an optional character set is missing.
+ some cleanup within the testsuite related to the fixes above
+ some adjustments to open bugs on Mac OS X
Details:
- Remove the initial loading of data from tests if these data
are not somewhere retrieved
- Remove any use of columns with attribute unicode
(-> UCS2 is no more needed) from tests where unicode
properties are not checked or somehow required
- Create a separate branch of the Character maximum length test
(CML). If UCS2 is available than this test gets applied to
every available type of string column with attribute unicode
This prevents any loss of coverage by the points above.
- Disable the execution of is_tables_ndb which gives wrong
results because of a bug. Correct the exepected results of
this test.
- In case of tests failing when applied to the embedded server
1) Create a variant of this test for the embedded server
or
2) Skip the test in case of embedded server
depending on purpose and complexity of test.
- Skip the tests which could suffer from
Bug 28309 First insert violates unique constraint - was "memory" table empty ?
Bug 37380 Test funcs_1.is_columns_myisam_embedded fails on OS X
(both bugs Mac OS X, embedded server, MySQL 5.0 only)
- Minor improvements like remove typos
