For DECIMAL[(M[,D])] datatype max_sort_length was not being honoured which was leading to buffer
overflow while making the sort key. The fix to this problem would be to create sort keys for decimals
with atmost max_sort_key bytes
Important:
The minimum value of max_sort_length has been raised to 8 (previously was 4),
so fixed size datatypes like DOUBLE and BIGINIT are not truncated for
lower values of max_sort_length.
This allows one to run the test suite even if any of the following
options are changed:
- character-set-server
- collation-server
- join-cache-level
- log-basename
- max-allowed-packet
- optimizer-switch
- query-cache-size and query-cache-type
- skip-name-resolve
- table-definition-cache
- table-open-cache
- Some innodb options
etc
Changes:
- Don't print out the value of system variables as one can't depend on
them to being constants.
- Don't set global variables to 'default' as the default may not
be the same as the test was started with if there was an additional
option file. Instead save original value and reset it at end of test.
- Test that depends on the latin1 character set should include
default_charset.inc or set the character set to latin1
- Test that depends on the original optimizer switch, should include
default_optimizer_switch.inc
- Test that depends on the value of a specific system variable should
set it in the test (like optimizer_use_condition_selectivity)
- Split subselect3.test into subselect3.test and subselect3.inc to
make it easier to set and reset system variables.
- Added .opt files for test that required specfic options that could
be changed by external configuration files.
- Fixed result files in rockdsb & tokudb that had not been updated for
a while.
This patch introduces support for the system variable eq_range_index_dive_limit
that existed in MySQL starting from 5.6. The variable sets a limit for
index dives into equality ranges. Index dives are performed by optimizer
to estimate the number of rows in range scans. Index dives usually provide
good estimate but they are pretty expensive. To estimate the number of rows
in equality ranges statistical data on indexes can be employed. Its usage gives
not so good estimates but it's cheap. So if the number of equality dives
required by an index scan exceeds the set limit no dives for equality
ranges are performed by the optimizer for this index.
As the new system variable is introduced in a stable version the default
value for it is set to a special value meaning there is no limit for the number
of index dives performed by the optimizer.
The patch partially uses the MySQL code for WL 5957
'Statistics-based Range optimization for many ranges'.
MDEV--15609 engines/funcs.crash_manytables_number crashes with error 24
(too many open files)
MDEV-10286 Adjustment of table_open_cache according to system limits
does not work when open-files-limit option is provided
Fixed by adjusting tc_size downwards if there is not enough file
descriptors to use.
Other changes:
- Ensure that there is 30 (was 10) extra file descriptors for other usage
- Decrease TABLE_OPEN_CACHE_MIN to 200 as it's better to have a smaller
table cache than getting error 24
- Increase minimum of max_connections and table_open_cache from 1 to 10
as 1 is not usable for any real application, only for testing.
- Added variable tmp_disk_table_size
- Added variable tmp_memory_table_size as an alias for tmp_table_size
- Changed internal variable tmp_table_size to tmp_memory_table_size
- create_info.data_file_length is now set with tmp_disk_table_size
- Fixed that Aria doesn't reset max_data_file_length for internal tables
- Added status flag if table is full so that we can detect this on next insert.
This ensures that the table is always 'correct', but we get the error one
row after the row that grow the table too big.
- Removed some mutex lock for internal temporary tables
because on Windows it cannot properly append to the file,
doesn't use CreateFile(..., FILE_APPEND_DATA, ...)
this fixes main.shutdown failures on Windows
Most notably, this includes MDEV-11623, which includes a fix and
an upgrade procedure for the InnoDB file format incompatibility
that is present in MariaDB Server 10.1.0 through 10.1.20.
In other words, this merge should address
MDEV-11202 InnoDB 10.1 -> 10.2 migration does not work
Increase max number of possible table_open_cache instances from 512K
to 1024K. This only affects user who are trying to set the variable over
the old limit.
Delete not used test table_open_cache_instances_basic
(Need to be added back and rewritten in 10.2)
Fixed sysvars_server_[not]embedded failure: changed type of
table_open_cache_instances from ulong to uint.
Added casts foratomic operations around tc_active_instances and
tc_contention_warning_reported: needed on some platforms.
