FULLTEXT INDEXES
myisamchk may create incorrect fulltext index for compressed
tables. Incorrect data pointer size was used while creating
fulltext index.
The LGPL license is used in some legacy code, and to
adhere to current licensing polity, we remove those
files that are no longer used, and reorganize the
remaining LGPL code so it will be GPL licensed from
now on.
Note: This patch only removed LGPL licensed files
in MySQL 5.5 and later, and is the third of a
set of patches to remove LGPL from all trees.

and 'THREAD_SAFE_CLIENT'.
As of MySQL 5.5, we no longer support non-threaded
builds. This patch removes all references to the
obsolete THREAD and THREAD_SAFE_CLIENT preprocessor
symbols. These were used to distinguish between
threaded and non-threaded builds.
DROP/CREATE SCHEMA, CREATE TABLE, REPAIR.
The cause of assert was concurrent execution of
DROP DATABASE and REPAIR TABLE where first statement
deleted table's file .TMD at the same time as
REPAIR TABLE tried to read file details from the old file
that was just removed.
Additionally was fixed trouble when DROP TABLE try delete
all files belong to table being dropped at the same time
when REPAIR TABLE statement has just deleted .TMD file.
No regression test added because this would require adding a
sync point to mysys/my_redel.c. Since this bug is not present in
5.5+, adding test coverage was considered unnecessary.
The patch has been verified using RQG testing.
Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.
Bug#47633 - assert in ha_myisammrg::info during OPTIMIZE
The server crashed on an attempt to optimize a MERGE table with
non-existent child table.
mysql_admin_table() relied on the table to be successfully open
if a table object had been allocated.
Changed code to check return value of the open function before
calling a handler:: function on it.

Estimation of number of index entries was done incorrectly,
causing further assertion failure or server crash.

Bug#32082 : definition of VOID in my_global.h conflicts with Windows
SDK headers
VOID macro is now removed. Its usage is replaced with void cast.
In some cases, where cast does not make much sense (pthread_*, printf,
hash_delete, my_seek), cast is ommited.
BUG#47073 - valgrind errs, corruption,failed repair of partition,
low myisam_sort_buffer_size
Fixed race conditions discovered with the provided test case and
stabilized test case.
low myisam_sort_buffer_size
Repair by sort (default) or parallel repair of a MyISAM table
(doesn't matter partitioned or not) as well as bulk inserts
and enable indexes some times didn't failover to repair with
key cache.
The problem was that after unsuccessful attempt, data file was
closed. Whereas repair with key cache requires open data file.
Fixed by reopening data file.
Also fixed a valgrind warning, which may appear during repair
by sort or parallel repair with certain myisam_sort_buffer_size
number of rows and length of an index entry (very dependent).
- Remove bothersome warning messages. This change focuses on the warnings
that are covered by the ignore file: support-files/compiler_warnings.supp.
- Strings are guaranteed to be max uint in length
myisam_repair_threads > 1 causes crash
Problem: parallel repair (myisam_repair_threads > 1) of a myisam
table with two or more fulltext keys that use the same parser may
lead to a server crash. ALTER TABLE ENABLE KEYS is affected as well.
Fix: properly initialize fulltext structures for parallel repair.
Note: 1. there's no deterministic test case.
2. now we call parser->init() for each fulltext key
(not for each fulltext parser used).
partition is corrupt
The main problem was that ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR
PARTITION took another code path (over mysql_alter_table instead of
mysql_admin_table) which differs in two ways:
1) alter table opens the tables in a different way than admin tables do
resulting in returning with error before it tried the command
2) alter table does not start to send any diagnostic rows to the client
which the lower admin functions continue to use -> resulting in
assertion crash
The fix:
Remapped ALTER TABLE t ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR PARTITION to use
the same code path as ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR TABLE t.
Adding check in mysql_admin_table to setup the partition list for
which partitions that should be used.
Partitioned tables will still not work with
REPAIR TABLE/PARTITION USE_FRM, since that requires moving partitions
to tables, REPAIR TABLE t USE_FRM, and check that the data still
fulfills the partitioning function and then move the table back to
being a partition.
NOTE: I have removed the following functions from the handler
interface:
analyze_partitions, check_partitions, optimize_partitions,
repair_partitions
Since they are not longer needed.
THIS ALTERS THE STORAGE ENGINE API
value" error even though the value was correct): a C function in my_getopt.c
was taking bool* in parameter and was called from C++ sql_plugin.cc,
but on some Mac OS X sizeof(bool) is 1 in C and 4 in C++, giving funny
mismatches. Fixed, all other occurences of bool in C are removed, future
ones are blocked by a "C-bool-catcher" in my_global.h (use my_bool).
- Reserver namespace and place in frm for TABLE_CHECKSUM and PAGE_CHECKSUM create options
- Added syncing of directory when creating .frm files
- Portability fixes
- Added missing cast that could cause bugs
- Code cleanups
- Made some bit functions inline
- Moved things out of myisam.h to my_handler.h to make them more accessable
- Renamed some myisam variables and defines to make them more globaly usable (as they are used outside of MyISAM)
- Fixed bugs in error conditions
- Use compiler time asserts instead of run time
- Fixed indentation
HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_DELETE -> HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_DROP as the old name was wrong
(Added a define for old value to ensure we don't break any old code)
Added HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_RENAME as a signal for rename (before we used a DROP signal which is wrong)
- Initialize error messages early to get better errors when mysqld or an engine fails to start
- Fix windows bug that query_performance_frequency was not initialized if registry code failed
- thread_stack -> my_thread_stack_size
Faster thr_alarm()
Added 'Opened_files' status variable to track calls to my_open()
Don't give warnings when running mysql_install_db
Added option --source-install to mysql_install_db
I had to do the following renames() as used polymorphism didn't work with Forte compiler on 64 bit systems
index_read() -> index_read_map()
index_read_idx() -> index_read_idx_map()
index_read_last() -> index_read_last_map()
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
index_read(), index_read_idx(), index_read_last(), and
records_in_range() - instead of 'uint keylen' argument take
'ulonglong keypart_map', a bitmap showing which keyparts are
present in the key value.
Fallback method is provided for handlers that are lagging behind.
