Patch backported from MariaDB 10.1
- Ensure that we wait with cleanup() until slave thread has stopped.
- Added signal_thd_deleted() to signal close_connections() that all THD's has been freed.
Other things
- Removed not needed calls to THD_CHECK_SENTRY() when we are calling 'delete thd'.
The verifier exception is caused by using thread local storage key
after key was deleted.
my_free() used current_thd within malloc size callback, which does
pthread_get_specific(THR_THD), but THR_THD is already deleted at this
point.
The fix moves pthread_key_delete() to a later point in shutdown.
new features:
set event_scheduler=ON|OFF will now try to init event scheduler
if it's not enabled
set event_scheduler=default will try to enable it based on
the value of the event_scheduler when mysqld was started
- Added --start option to mysqld which don't prints notes to log on startup
This helps to find errors in configure options easier
- Dont write [Note] entries to log after we have abort the server
This makes it easier to find what went wrong
- Don't by default write out Changed limits for max_open_files as this didn't really change from anything the user gave us
- Dont write warnings about not using --explicit_defaults_for_timestamp (we don't have plans do depricate the old behaviour)
Addendum:
* Before calling THD::init_for_queries(), flip the current_thd to wsrep
thread so that memory gets allocated for the right THD.
* Use wsrep_creating_startup_threads instead of plugins_are_initialized
as the condition for the execution of THD::init_for_queries() within
start_wsrep_THD(), as use of latter could still leave some room for
race.
Problem:
When mysqld starts as a galera node, it creates 2 system threads
(applier & rollbacker) using start_wsrep_THD(). These threads are
created before plugin initialization (plugin_init()) for SST methods
like rsync and xtrabackup.
The threads' initialization itself can proceed in parallel to mysqld's
main thread of execution. As a result, the thread initialization code
(start_wsrep_THD()) can end up accessing some un/partially initialized
structures (like maria_hton, in this particular case) resulting in
segfault.
Solution:
Fixed by calling THD::init_for_queries() (which accesses maria_hton)
only after the plugins have been initialized.

--encrypt-binlog and --encrypt-tmp-files used to mean
"encrypt XXX if encryption is available, otherwise don't encrypt",
now they mean "encrypt or fail with an error".
- If run with valgrind, mysqltest will now wait longer when syncronizing slave with master
- Ensure that we wait with cleanup() until slave thread has stopped.
- Added signal_thd_deleted() to signal close_connections() that all THD's has been freed.
- Check in handle_fatal_signal() that we don't use variables that has been freed.
- Increased some timeouts when run with --valgrind
Other things:
- Fixed wrong test in one_thread_per_connection_end() if galera is used.
- Removed not needed calls to THD_CHECK_SENTRY() when we are calling 'delete thd'.
PROBLEMS
Description:- Server variable "--lower_case_tables_names"
when set to "0" on windows platform which does not support
case sensitive file operations leads to problems. A warning
message is printed in the error log while starting the
server with "--lower_case_tables_names=0". Also according to
the documentation, seting "lower_case_tables_names" to "0"
on a case-insensitive filesystem might lead to index
corruption.
Analysis:- The problem reported in the bug is:-
Creating an INNODB table 'a' and executing a query, "INSERT
INTO a SELECT a FROM A;" on a server started with
"--lower_case_tables_names=0" and running on a
case-insensitive filesystem leads innodb to flat spin.
Optimizer thinks that "a" and "A" are two different tables
as the variable "lower_case_table_names" is set to "0". As a
result, optimizer comes up with a plan which does not need a
temporary table. If the same table is used in select and
insert, a temporary table is needed. This incorrect
optimizer plan leads to infinite insertions.
Fix:- If the server is started with
"--lower_case_tables_names" set to 0 on a case-insensitive
filesystem, an error, "The server option
'lower_case_table_names'is configured to use case sensitive
table names but the data directory is on a case-insensitive
file system which is an unsupported combination. Please
consider either using a case sensitive file system for your
data directory or switching to a case-insensitive table name
mode.", is printed in the server error log and the server
exits.
field.cc
- Fixed warning about overlapping memory copy (backport from 10.0)
Item_subselect.cc
- Fixed core dump in main.view
- Problem was that thd->lex->current_select->master_unit()->item was not set, which caused crash in maxr_as_dependent
sql/mysqld.cc
- Got error on shutdown as we where freeing mutex before all THD objects was freed
(~THD uses some mutex). Fixed by during shutdown freeing THD inside mutex.
sql/log.cc
- log_space_lock and LOCK_log where locked in inconsistenly. Fixed by not having a log_space_lock around purge_logs.
sql/slave.cc
- Remove unnecessary log_space_lock
- Move cond_broadcast inside lock to ensure we don't miss the signal
Other things:
- Avoid calling init_and_set_log_file_name() when opening binary log.
- Remove newlines early when reading from index file.
- Ensure that reset_logs() will work even if thd is 0 (Can happen on startup)
- Added thd to sart_slave_threads() for better error handling.
- Cache variables.lc_messages->errmsgs->errmsgs in variables.errmsgs
This gives us 15 byte less code space and 2 memory references for any access to language dependent message,
of which there are 500 in the server..
