WL#5154 was a task for formally deprecating and removing items that
were mentioned in the manual as having been deprecated since MySQL
4.1 or 5.0, but that had never been removed.
Since WL#5154 was created, examination of mysqld.cc, mysql.cc, and
mysqldump.c reveals additional deprecations not mentioned in the
manual. (In some cases, the items are simply not mentioned in the
5.1+ manuals.)
This is a follow-on task to deprecate and remove these additional
items.
The deprecation happened in MySQL 5.1, and the options/variables
are now removed from the code.
In POSIX systems, the file descriptor set used in the select(2)
system call is represented by a bit vector of size FD_SETSIZE.
When select(2) is used on file/socket descriptors with a value
that is beyond this size, unpredictable errors may occur.
In this case, the error happens when there are a large number
of tables that need repair. These tables are opened before
the sockets for incoming connections are acquired, resulting
in these sockets getting descriptor id which is higher than
FD_SETSIZE.
Replacing the call to select(2) with poll(2) fixes the problem,
as poll takes an array of the wanted descriptors, instead of
a bit vector.
MS Windows has a different implementation of 'select', and is not
affected by this bug.
When compiling wiht ./configure --with-ssl=/usr,
which used OPEN_SSL but not YASSL, the code in sql/mysqld.cc
failed to build because of an incomplete performance schema instrumentation.
This fix implements properly the instrumentation for the rwlock
used in openssl_lock_t.
Verified that the code builds, and the ssl + performance schema tests
do pass.
Several items said to be deprecated in the 4.1 manual
have never been removed. This worklog adds deprecation
warnings when these items are used, and warns the user
that the items will be removed in MySQL 5.6.
A couple of previously deprecation decision have been
reversed (see single file comments)
It is well-known that due to concurrency issues, a slave can become
inconsistent when a transaction contains updates to both transaction and
non-transactional tables in statement and mixed modes.
In a nutshell, the current code-base tries to preserve causality among the
statements by writing non-transactional statements to the txn-cache which
is flushed upon commit. However, modifications done to non-transactional
tables on behalf of a transaction become immediately visible to other
connections but may not immediately get into the binary log and therefore
consistency may be broken.
In general, it is impossible to automatically detect causality/dependency
among statements by just analyzing the statements sent to the server. This
happen because dependency may be hidden in the application code and it is
necessary to know a priori all the statements processed in the context of
a transaction such as in a procedure. Moreover, even for the few cases that
we could automatically address in the server, the computation effort
required could make the approach infeasible.
So, in this patch we introduce the option
- "--binlog-direct-non-transactional-updates" that can be used to bypass
the current behavior in order to write directly to binary log statements
that change non-transactional tables.
When starting mysqld it did not recognize most of the options given on
the command line when it was compiled for 32-bit Solaris using Sun
Studio compiler. The cause for this was that most of the entries in
the my_long_options array contained "garbage" data. The garbage data
was caused by a compiler bug. When initilizing the def_value member
for the "default-storage-engine" entry it was initialized like this:
(longlong)"MyISAM"
i.e. casting a 32 bit pointer to a 64 bit integer value. Due to the
compiler bug only 4 bytes was allocated (instead of 8 bytes). This
caused everything following this entry to be stored at a location that
was 4 byte wrong.
The fix/work-around for this problem is initialize the def_value
for default-storage-engine in my_long_options to 0 and instead
initialize the default_storage_engine variable to "MyISAM" in
init_common_variables().

Unlike other platforms --mfpmath=sse is the default
gcc mode on Mac OS X Intel. So it is unnecessary
to switch FPU to double precision mode (in fact,
it even breaks some math library functions).
to string conversions and vice versa"
Initial import of the dtoa.c code and custom wrappers around it
to allow its usage from the server code.
Conversion of FLOAT/DOUBLE values to DECIMAL ones or strings
and vice versa has been significantly reworked. As the new
algoritms are more precise than the older ones, results of such
conversions may not always match those obtained from older
server versions. This in turn may break compatibility for some
applications.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
- bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of exponent between
Unix and Windows"
- bug #21497 "DOUBLE truncated to unusable value"
- bug #26788 "mysqld (debug) aborts when inserting specific

When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.
When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9
With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.
The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.
Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to
tested manually.
WL#3771
"Audit Plugin Interface"
Implement new plug-in type - AUDIT
New plug-in: audit_null
simply increments counter for how many times it was called.
Row-based replication requires the types of columns on the
master and slave to be approximately the same (some safe
conversions between strings are allowed), but does not
allow safe conversions between fields of similar types such
as TINYINT and INT.
This patch implement type conversions between similar fields
on the master and slave.
The conversions are controlled using a new variable
SLAVE_TYPE_CONVERSIONS of type SET('ALL_LOSSY','ALL_NON_LOSSY').
Non-lossy conversions are any conversions that do not run the
risk of losing any information, while lossy conversions can
potentially truncate the value. The column definitions are
checked to decide if the conversion is acceptable.
If neither conversion is enabled, it is required that the
definitions of the columns are identical on master and slave.
Conversion is done by creating an internal conversion table,
unpacking the master data into it, and then copy the data to
the real table on the slave.
