If UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG was switched on, the error monitor thread could reserve a mutex BEFORE the sync debug system was initialized, and that caused a sync debug assertion in startup: move the 2 sec. sleep to a safer place; note that this is only heuristics, and in theory it can assert still
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
Merge with ibbackup; bug fix: .ibd files were extended 2 x the required amount; InnoDB does not create the small file inno_arch_log... any more at database creation
Multiple tablespaces for InnoDB
sql_table.cc:
Tell explicitly that InnoDB should retrieve all columns in CHECKSUM TABLE
sql_update.cc, sql_select.cc, my_base.h:
More descriptive flag name HA_EXTRA_RETRIEVE_ALL_COLS
Merge InnoDB-4.0.14: SAVEPOINT now implemented; InnoDB now accepts also column prefix keys; crashing bug in ON UPDATE CASCADE fixed; page checksum formula fixed
Release all event semaphores at shutdown also in Windows
srv0start.c, srv0srv.c:
make test sometimes failed because lock timeout thread exited without decrementing the InnoDB thread counter
Let InnoDB to skip writing of pages from the doublewrite buffer if innodb_force_recovery=6; normally, if the page is corrupt AND the corresponding page in the doublewrite buffer is also corrupt, InnoDB calls exit(1)
Call pthread_mutex_destroy() on not used mutex.
Changed comments in .h and .c files from // -> /* */
Added detection of mutex on which one didn't call pthread_mutex_destroy()
Fixed bug in create_tmp_field() which causes a memory overrun in queries that uses "ORDER BY constant_expression"
Added optimisation for ORDER BY NULL
Merge InnoDB-4.0.7. Support for ON UPDATE CASCADE
sql_select.cc:
Remove superfluous prints to .err log when a locking SELECT fails to a deadlock or a lock wait timeout
Merge InnoDB-4.0.5: new isolation levels READ COMMITTED and READ UNCOMMITTED now supported, selective deadlock resolution
mysqld.cc:
Change MySQL default isolation level to REPEATABLE READ; note that InnoDB has always had that default, and BDB and MyISAM always run at SERIALIZABLE level anyway
