Before MySQL 4.0.18, user-specified constraint names were ignored.
Starting with MySQL 4.0.18, the specified constraint name was
prepended with the schema name and '/'. Now we are transforming
into a format where the constraint name is prepended with the
dict_table_t::name and the impossible UTF-8 sequence 0xff.
Generated constraint names will be ASCII decimal numbers.
On upgrade, old FOREIGN KEY constraint names will be displayed
without any schema name prefix. They will be updated to the new
format on DDL operations.
dict_foreign_t::sql_id(): Return the SQL constraint name
without any schemaname/tablename\377 or schemaname/ prefix.
row_rename_table_for_mysql(), dict_table_rename_in_cache():
Simplify the logic: Just rename constraints to the new format.
dict_table_get_foreign_id(): Replaces dict_table_get_highest_foreign_id().
innobase_get_foreign_key_info(): Let my_error() refer to erroneous
anonymous constraints as "(null)".
row_delete_constraint(): Try to drop all 3 constraint name variants.

When doing a ALTER TABLE ... RENAME, MariaDB doesn't rename
original table to #sql-backup, which it does in other cases,
but insteads drops the original table directly. However
this optimization doesn't work in case of InnoDB table
with a foreign key constraint.
During copy algorithm, InnoDB fails to rename the foreign key
constraint(MDEV-25855). With this optimisation, InnoDB also
fails to drop the original table because the table has
FOREIGN Key constraint exist in INNODB_SYS_FOREIGN table.
This leads to orphan .ibd file in InnoDB dictionary.
so disabling this optimization when FK is involved.

This patch changes the main name of 3 byte character set from utf8 to
utf8mb3. New old_mode UTF8_IS_UTF8MB3 is added and set TRUE by default,
so that utf8 would mean utf8mb3. If not set, utf8 would mean utf8mb4.
Currently InnoDB uses internal parser for adding foreign keys. Remove
internal parser and use data parsed by SQL parser (sql_yacc) for
adding foreign keys.
- create_table_info_t::create_foreign_keys() replacement for
dict_create_foreign_constraints_low();
- Pass constraint name via Foreign_key object.
Temporary until MDEV-20865:
- Pass alter_info as part of create_info.
There is several different ways to incorrectly define
foreign key constraint. In many cases earlier MariaDB
versions the error messages produced by these cases
are not very clear and helpful. This patch improves
the warning messages produced by foreign key parsing.
when created FK
Analysis: Table name is on filename charset but foreign key
identifiers are not. This lead incorrect foreign key
identifier number to be used.
Fix: Convert foreign key identifier to filename charset before
comparing it to table name when largest foreign key identifier
number is resolved.
Analysis: after a red-black-tree lookup we use node withouth
checking did lookup succeed or not. This lead to situation
where NULL-pointer was used.
Fix: Add additional check that found node from red-back-tree
is valid.
SLOW/CRASHES SEMAPHORE
Problem:
There are 2 lakh tables - fk_000001, fk_000002 ... fk_200000. All of them
are related to the same parent_table through a foreign key constraint.
When the parent_table is loaded into the dictionary cache, all the child table
will also be loaded. This is taking lot of time. Since this operation happens
when the dictionary latch is taken, the scenario leads to "long semaphore wait"
situation and the server gets killed.
Analysis:
A simple performance analysis showed that the slowness is because of the
dict_foreign_find() function. It does a linear search on two linked list
table->foreign_list and table->referenced_list, looking for a particular
foreign key object based on foreign->id as the key. This is called two
times for each foreign key object.
Solution:
Introduce a rb tree in table->foreign_rbt and table->referenced_rbt, which
are some sort of index on table->foreign_list and table->referenced_list
respectively, using foreign->id as the key. These rbt structures will be
solely used by dict_foreign_find().
