This was an attempt to address problems with the Bug#12612184 fix.
Even with this follow-up fix, crash recovery can be broken.
Let us fix the bug later.
Added 'innodb_file_format_check' as variable to ignore change to.
Tests that had to restore this amended
Two tests assumed it to be Antelope, make sure these run on a freshly
started server
For 5.5, apparently innodb_file_format_max is the one to ignore
The problem occurred when indexes are added between the time that an
UNDO record is created and the time that the purge thread comes around
and deletes the old secondary index entries. The purge thread would
hit an assert when trying to build a secondary index entry for
searching. The problem was that the old value of those fields were not
in the UNDO record since they were not part of an index when the UPDATE
occured.
A test case was added to innodb-index.test.
The fix of Bug#12612184 broke crash recovery. When a record that
contains off-page columns (BLOBs) is updated, we must first write redo
log about the BLOB page writes, and only after that write the redo log
about the B-tree changes. The buggy fix would log the B-tree changes
first, meaning that after recovery, we could end up having a record
that contains a null BLOB pointer.
Because we will be redo logging the writes off the off-page columns
before the B-tree changes, we must make sure that the pages chosen for
the off-page columns are free both before and after the B-tree
changes. In this way, the worst thing that can happen in crash
recovery is that the BLOBs are written to free pages, but the B-tree
changes are not applied. The BLOB pages would correctly remain free in
this case. To achieve this, we must allocate the BLOB pages in the
mini-transaction of the B-tree operation. A further quirk is that BLOB
pages are allocated from the same file segment as leaf pages. Because
of this, we must temporarily "hide" any leaf pages that were freed
during the B-tree operation by "fake allocating" them prior to writing
the BLOBs, and freeing them again before the mtr_commit() of the
B-tree operation, in btr_mark_freed_leaves().
btr_cur_mtr_commit_and_start(): Remove this faulty function that was
introduced in the Bug#12612184 fix. The problem that this function was
trying to address was that when we did mtr_commit() the BLOB writes
before the mtr_commit() of the update, the new BLOB pages could have
overwritten clustered index B-tree leaf pages that were freed during
the update. If recovery applied the redo log of the BLOB writes but
did not see the log of the record update, the index tree would be
corrupted. The correct solution is to make the freed clustered index
pages unavailable to the BLOB allocation. This function is also a
likely culprit of InnoDB hangs that were observed when testing the
Bug#12612184 fix.
btr_mark_freed_leaves(): Mark all freed clustered index leaf pages of
a mini-transaction allocated (nonfree=TRUE) before storing the BLOBs,
or freed (nonfree=FALSE) before committing the mini-transaction.
btr_freed_leaves_validate(): A debug function for checking that all
clustered index leaf pages that have been marked free in the
mini-transaction are consistent (have not been zeroed out).
btr_page_alloc_low(): Refactored from btr_page_alloc(). Return the
number of the allocated page, or FIL_NULL if out of space. Add the
parameter "mtr_t* init_mtr" for specifying the mini-transaction where
the page should be initialized, or if this is a "fake allocation"
(init_mtr=NULL) by btr_mark_freed_leaves(nonfree=TRUE).
btr_page_alloc(): Add the parameter init_mtr, allowing the page to be
initialized and X-latched in a different mini-transaction than the one
that is used for the allocation. Invoke btr_page_alloc_low(). If a
clustered index leaf page was previously freed in mtr, remove it from
the memo of previously freed pages.
btr_page_free(): Assert that the page is a B-tree page and it has been
X-latched by the mini-transaction. If the freed page was a leaf page
of a clustered index, link it by a MTR_MEMO_FREE_CLUST_LEAF marker to
the mini-transaction.
btr_store_big_rec_extern_fields_func(): Add the parameter alloc_mtr,
which is NULL (old behaviour in inserts) and the same as local_mtr in
updates. If alloc_mtr!=NULL, the BLOB pages will be allocated from it
instead of the mini-transaction that is used for writing the BLOBs.
fsp_alloc_from_free_frag(): Refactored from
fsp_alloc_free_page(). Allocate the specified page from a partially
free extent.
fseg_alloc_free_page_low(), fseg_alloc_free_page_general(): Add the
parameter "mtr_t* init_mtr" for specifying the mini-transaction where
the page should be initialized, or NULL if this is a "fake allocation"
that prevents the reuse of a previously freed B-tree page for BLOB
storage. If init_mtr==NULL, try harder to reallocate the specified page
and assert that it succeeded.
fsp_alloc_free_page(): Add the parameter "mtr_t* init_mtr" for
specifying the mini-transaction where the page should be initialized.
Do not allow init_mtr == NULL, because this function is never to be
used for "fake allocations".
mtr_t: Add the operation MTR_MEMO_FREE_CLUST_LEAF and the flag
mtr->freed_clust_leaf for quickly determining if any
MTR_MEMO_FREE_CLUST_LEAF operations have been posted.
row_ins_index_entry_low(): When columns are being made off-page in
insert-by-update, invoke btr_mark_freed_leaves(nonfree=TRUE) and pass
the mini-transaction as the alloc_mtr to
btr_store_big_rec_extern_fields(). Finally, invoke
btr_mark_freed_leaves(nonfree=FALSE) to avoid leaking pages.
row_build(): Correct a comment, and add a debug assertion that a
record that contains NULL BLOB pointers must be a fresh insert.
row_upd_clust_rec(): When columns are being moved off-page, invoke
btr_mark_freed_leaves(nonfree=TRUE) and pass the mini-transaction as
the alloc_mtr to btr_store_big_rec_extern_fields(). Finally, invoke
btr_mark_freed_leaves(nonfree=FALSE) to avoid leaking pages.
buf_reset_check_index_page_at_flush(): Remove. The function
fsp_init_file_page_low() already sets
bpage->check_index_page_at_flush=FALSE.
There is a known issue in tablespace extension. If the request to
allocate a BLOB page leads to the tablespace being extended, crash
recovery could see BLOB writes to pages that are off the tablespace
file bounds. This should trigger an assertion failure in fil_io() at
crash recovery. The safe thing would be to write redo log about the
tablespace extension to the mini-transaction of the BLOB write, not to
the mini-transaction of the record update. However, there is no redo
log record for file extension in the current redo log format.

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.

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.
