bug. It added this assert;
ut_ad(ind_field->prefix_len);
before a section of code that assumes there is a prefix_len.
The patch replaced code that explicitly avoided this with a check for
prefix_len. It turns out that the purge thread can get to that assert
without a prefix_len because it does not use a row_ext_t* .
When UNIV_DEBUG is not defined, the affect of this is that the purge thread
sets the dfield->len to zero and then cannot find the entry in the index to
purge. So secondary index entries remain unpurged.
This patch does not do the assert. Instead, it uses
'if (ind_field->prefix_len) {...}'
around the section of code that assumes a prefix_len. This is the way the
patch I provided to Marko did it.
The test case is simply modified to do a sleep(10) in order to give the
purge thread a chance to run. Without the code change to row0row.c, this
modified testcase will assert if InnoDB was compiled with UNIV_DEBUG.
I tried to sleep(5), but it did not always assert.
row_build_index_entry(): In innodb_file_format=Barracuda
(ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC or ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED), a secondary index on a
full column can refer to a field that is stored off-page in the
clustered index record. Take that into account.
rb:692 approved by Jimmy Yang
they are ignored to a new test suite "innodb_plugin".
Remove a hack in mtr that was deployed to run the builtin InnoDB tests against
the InnoDB Plugin. Also detect if a test is an 'innodb plugin test' and if so
then transparently replace the builtin InnoDB with the InnoDB Plugin.
