This patch introduces support for the system variable eq_range_index_dive_limit
that existed in MySQL starting from 5.6. The variable sets a limit for
index dives into equality ranges. Index dives are performed by optimizer
to estimate the number of rows in range scans. Index dives usually provide
good estimate but they are pretty expensive. To estimate the number of rows
in equality ranges statistical data on indexes can be employed. Its usage gives
not so good estimates but it's cheap. So if the number of equality dives
required by an index scan exceeds the set limit no dives for equality
ranges are performed by the optimizer for this index.
As the new system variable is introduced in a stable version the default
value for it is set to a special value meaning there is no limit for the number
of index dives performed by the optimizer.
The patch partially uses the MySQL code for WL 5957
'Statistics-based Range optimization for many ranges'.
Introduced new alter algorithm type called NOCOPY & INSTANT for
inplace alter operation.
NOCOPY - Algorithm refuses any alter operation that would
rebuild the clustered index. It is a subset of INPLACE algorithm.
INSTANT - Algorithm allow any alter operation that would
modify only meta data. It is a subset of NOCOPY algorithm.
Introduce new variable called alter_algorithm. The values are
DEFAULT(0), COPY(1), INPLACE(2), NOCOPY(3), INSTANT(4)
Message to deprecate old_alter_table variable and make it alias
for alter_algorithm variable.
alter_algorithm variable for slave is always set to default.
MDEV--15609 engines/funcs.crash_manytables_number crashes with error 24
(too many open files)
MDEV-10286 Adjustment of table_open_cache according to system limits
does not work when open-files-limit option is provided
Fixed by adjusting tc_size downwards if there is not enough file
descriptors to use.
Other changes:
- Ensure that there is 30 (was 10) extra file descriptors for other usage
- Decrease TABLE_OPEN_CACHE_MIN to 200 as it's better to have a smaller
table cache than getting error 24
- Increase minimum of max_connections and table_open_cache from 1 to 10
as 1 is not usable for any real application, only for testing.
- CREATE PACKAGE [BODY] statements are now
entirely written to mysql.proc with type='PACKAGE' and type='PACKAGE BODY'.
- CREATE PACKAGE BODY now supports IF NOT EXISTS
- DROP PACKAGE BODY now supports IF EXISTS
- CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE [BODY] is now supported
- CREATE PACKAGE [BODY] now support the DEFINER clause:
CREATE DEFINER user@host PACKAGE pkg ... END;
CREATE DEFINER user@host PACKAGE BODY pkg ... END;
- CREATE PACKAGE [BODY] now supports SQL SECURITY and COMMENT clauses, e.g.:
CREATE PACKAGE p1 SQL SECURITY INVOKER COMMENT "comment" AS ... END;
- Package routines are now created from the package CREATE PACKAGE BODY
statement and don't produce individual records in mysql.proc.
- CREATE PACKAGE BODY now supports package-wide variables.
Package variables can be read and set inside package routines.
Package variables are stored in a separate sp_rcontext,
which is cached in THD on the first packate routine call.
- CREATE PACKAGE BODY now supports the initialization section.
- All public routines (i.e. declared in CREATE PACKAGE)
must have implementations in CREATE PACKAGE BODY
- Only public package routines are available outside of the package
- {CREATE|DROP} PACKAGE [BODY] now respects CREATE ROUTINE and ALTER ROUTINE
privileges
- "GRANT EXECUTE ON PACKAGE BODY pkg" is now supported
- SHOW CREATE PACKAGE [BODY] is now supported
- SHOW PACKAGE [BODY] STATUS is now supported
- CREATE and DROP for PACKAGE [BODY] now works for non-current databases
- mysqldump now supports packages
- "SHOW {PROCEDURE|FUNCTION) CODE pkg.routine" now works for package routines
- "SHOW PACKAGE BODY CODE pkg" now works (the package initialization section)
- A new package body level MDL was added
- Recursive calls for package procedures are now possible
- Routine forward declarations in CREATE PACKATE BODY are now supported.
- Package body variables now work as SP OUT parameters
- Package body variables now work as SELECT INTO targets
- Package body variables now support ROW, %ROWTYPE, %TYPE
Standard compatible behavior for UPDATE: all assignments in SET
are executed "simultaneously", not left-to-right. And `SET a=b,b=a`
will swap the values.
and the system_versioning_transaction_registry variable.
The user enables transaction registry by specifying BIGINT for
row_start/row_end columns.
check mysql.transaction_registry structure on the first open,
not on startup. Avoid warnings unless transaction_registry
is actually used.
Many related changes.
Note that AS OF condition must always be pushed down to physical tables,
it cannot be applied to a derived or a view. Thus:
* no versioning for internal temporary tables, they can never store
historical data.
* remove special versioning code from mysql_derived_prepare and
remove ER_VERS_DERIVED_PROHIBITED - derived can have no historical
data and cannot be prohibited for system versioning related reasons.
* do not expand select list for derived/views with sys vers fields,
derived/views can never have historical data.
* remove special invisiblity rules for sys vers fields, they are no
longer needed after the previous change
* remove system_versioning_hide, it lost the meaning after the
previous change.
* remove ER_VERS_SYSTEM_TIME_CLASH, it's no "clash", the inner
AS OF clause always wins.
* non-versioned fields in a historical query
reword the warning text, downgrade to note, don't
replace values with NULLs
* rename in_subquery_conversion_threshold to in_predicate_conversion_threshold
* make it debug-only, hide from users
* change from ulong to uint - same type and range on all architectures
* Note: breaking change; since this commit, a plugin that has
worked so far might get rejected due to plugin maturity
* mariabackup is not affected (allows all plugins)
* VERSION file defines SERVER_MATURITY, which defines the
corresponding numeric value as SERVER_MATURITY_LEVEL in
include/mysql_version.h
* The default value for 'plugin_maturity' is SERVER_MATURITY_LEVEL - 1
* Logs a warning if a plugin has maturity lower than
SERVER_MATURITY_LEVEL
* Tests suppress the plugin maturity warning
* Tests use --plugin-maturity=unknown by default so as not to fail
due to the stricter plugin maturity handling
* Note: breaking change; since this commit, a plugin that has

This was done to get more information about where time is spent.
Now we can get proper timing for time spent in commit, rollback,
binlog write etc.
Following stages was added:
- Commit
- Commit_implicit
- Rollback
- Rollback implicit
- Binlog write
- Init for update
- This is used instead of "Init" for insert, update and delete.
- Staring cleanup
Following stages where changed:
- "Unlocking tables" stage reset stage to previous stage at end
- "binlog write" stage resets stage to previous stage at end
- "end" -> "end of update loop"
- "cleaning up" -> "Reset for next command"
- Added stage_searching_rows_for_update when searching for rows
to be deleted.
Other things:
- Renamed all stages to start with big letter (before there was no
consitency)
- Increased performance_schema_max_stage_classes from 150 to 160.
- Most of the test changes in performance schema comes from renaming of
stages.
- Removed duplicate output of variables and inital state in a lot of
performance schema tests.
This was done to make it easier to change a default value for a
performance variable without affecting all tests.
- Added start_server_variables.test to check configuration
- Removed some duplicate "closing tables" stages
- Updated position for "stage_init_update" and "stage_updating" for
delete, insert and update to be just before update loop (for more
exact timing).
- Don't set "Checking permissions" twice in a row.
- Remove stage_end stage from creating views (not done for create table
either).
- Updated default performance history size from 10 to 20 because of new
stages
- Ensure that ps_enabled is correct (to be used in a later patch)
Storage engine independent support for column compression.
TINYBLOB, BLOB, MEDIUMBLOB, LONGBLOB, TINYTEXT, TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, LONGTEXT,
VARCHAR and VARBINARY columns can be compressed.
New COMPRESSED column attribute added:
COMPRESSED[=<compression_method>]
System variables added:
column_compression_threshold
column_compression_zlib_level
column_compression_zlib_strategy
column_compression_zlib_wrap
Status variables added:
Column_compressions
Column_decompressions
Limitations:
- the only supported method currently is zlib
- CSV storage engine stores data uncompressed on-disk even if COMPRESSED
attribute is present
- it is not possible to create indexes over compressed columns.
