Before commit 6112853cdab2770e92f9cfefdfef9c0a14b71cb7 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 b5852ffbeebc3000982988383daeefb0549e058a.
Starting with commit baf276e6d4a44fe7cdf3b435c0153da0a42af2b6
(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 86dc7b4d4cfe15a2d37f8b5f60c4fce5dba9491d (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.
Do not effectively set DEBUG_DBUG='d' by setting DEBUG_DBUG='-d,...'.
Instead, restore the saved value of DEBUG_DBUG.
Also, split the test innodb_fts.innodb_fts_misc_debug into
innodb_fts.crash_recovery and innodb_fts.misc_debug, and enable
these tests for --valgrind, the latter test for --embedded,
and the former tests for the non-debug server.
This includes fixing all utilities to not have any memory leaks,
as safemalloc warnings stopped tests from passing on MacOSX.
- Ensure that all clients takes character-set-dir, as the
libmysqlclient library will use it.
- mysql-test-run now passes character-set-dir to all external clients.
- Changed dynstr_free() so that it can be called twice (made freeing code easier)
- Changed rpl_global_gtid_slave_state to be allocated dynamicly as it
includes a mutex that needs to be initizlied/destroyed before my_end() is called.
- Removed rpl_slave_state::init() and rpl_slave_stage::deinit() as
their job are better handling by constructor and delete.
- Print alias instead of table_name in check_duplicate_key as
table_name may have been converted to lower case.
Other things:
- Fixed a case in time_to_datetime_with_warn() where we where
using && instead of & in tests
Includes 5.6 changesets for:
*****
Fix for BUG#13489996 valgrind:conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised values-field_blob.
blob_ptr_size was not initialized properly: remove this variable.
*****
Bug#14021323 CRASH IN FIELD::SET_NULL WHEN INSERTING ROWS TO NEW TABLE
*****
storage/innobase/handler/handler0alter.cc:
for NEWDATE key_type says unsigned, thus col->prtype says unsigned,
but field->flags says signed. Use the same flag for value retrieval
that was used for value storage.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
CREATE ... IF NOT EXISTS may do nothing, but
it is still not a failure. don't forget to my_ok it.
