The problem with the InnoDB table attribute encryption_key_id is that it is
not being persisted anywhere in InnoDB except if the table attribute
encryption is specified and is something else than encryption=default.
MDEV-17320 made it a hard error if encryption_key_id is specified to be
anything else than 1 in that case.
Ideally, we would always persist encryption_key_id in InnoDB. But, then we
would have to be prepared for the case that when encryption is being enabled
for a table whose encryption_key_id attribute refers to a non-existing key.
In MariaDB Server 10.1, our best option remains to not store anything
inside InnoDB. But, instead of returning the error that MDEV-17320
introduced, we should merely issue a warning that the specified
encryption_key_id is going to be ignored if encryption=default.
To improve the situation a little more, we will issue a warning if
SET [GLOBAL|SESSION] innodb_default_encryption_key_id is being set
to something that does not refer to an available encryption key.
Starting with MariaDB Server 10.2, thanks to MDEV-5800, we could open the
table definition from InnoDB side when the encryption is being enabled,
and actually fix the root cause of what was reported in MDEV-17320.
Background: Used encryption key_id is stored to encryption metadata
i.e. crypt_data that is stored on page 0 of the tablespace of the
table. crypt_data is created only if implicit encryption/not encryption
is requested i.e. ENCRYPTED=[YES|NO] table option is used
fil_create_new_single_table_tablespace on fil0fil.cc.
Later if encryption is enabled all tables that use default encryption
mode (i.e. no encryption table option is set) are encrypted with
default encryption key_id that is 1. See fil_crypt_start_encrypting_space on
fil0crypt.cc.
ha_innobase::check_table_options()
If default encryption is used and encryption is disabled, you may
not use nondefault encryption_key_id as it is not stored anywhere.
When MariaDB 10.1.0 introduced table options for encryption and
compression, it unnecessarily changed
ha_innobase::check_if_supported_inplace_alter() so that ALGORITHM=COPY
is forced when these parameters differ.
A better solution is to move the check to innobase_need_rebuild().
In that way, the ALGORITHM=INPLACE interface (yes, the syntax is
very misleading) can be used for rebuilding the table much more
efficiently, with merge sort, with no undo logging, and allowing
concurrent DML operations.
innodb_file_format=Barracuda is the default in MariaDB 10.2.
Do not set it, because the option will be removed in MariaDB 10.3.
Also, do not set innodb_file_per_table=1 because it is the default.
Note that MDEV-11828 should fix the test innodb.innodb-64k
already in 10.1.

MDEV-10547: Test multi_update_innodb fails with InnoDB 5.7
The failure happened because 5.7 has changed the signature of
the bool handler::primary_key_is_clustered() const
virtual function ("const" was added). InnoDB was using the old
signature which caused the function not to be used.
MDEV-10550: Parallel replication lock waits/deadlock handling does not work with InnoDB 5.7
Fixed mutexing problem on lock_trx_handle_wait. Note that
rpl_parallel and rpl_optimistic_parallel tests still
fail.
MDEV-10156 : Group commit tests fail on 10.2 InnoDB (branch bb-10.2-jan)
Reason: incorrect merge
MDEV-10550: Parallel replication can't sync with master in InnoDB 5.7 (branch bb-10.2-jan)
Reason: incorrect merge
Folloup: Made encryption rules too strict (and incorrect). Allow creating
table with ENCRYPTED=OFF with all values of ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID but create
warning that nondefault values are ignored. Allow creating table with
ENCRYPTED=DEFAULT if used key_id is found from key file (there was
bug on this) and give error if key_id is not found.
Analysis: Problem sees to be the fact that we allow creating or altering
table to use encryption_key_id that does not exists in case where
original table is not encrypted currently. Secondly we should not
do key rotation to tables that are not encrypted or tablespaces
that can't be found from tablespace cache.
Fix: Do not allow creating unencrypted table with nondefault encryption key
and do not rotate tablespaces that are not encrypted (FIL_SPACE_ENCRYPTION_OFF)
or can't be found from tablespace cache.
