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.
When detecting a statement that can make use of ha_delete_all_rows(),
we refrained from running the statement when being presented
with the analyze or explain prefix.
- In print_explain_row(), do not forget to print r_rows.
- Switch Explain_update from using its own counters to re-using
Table_access_tracker.
- Make ANALYZE UPDATE code structure uniform with ANALYZE DELETE.
- "ANALYZE $stmt" should discard select's output, but it should still
evaluate the output columns (otherwise, subqueries in select list
are not executed)
- SHOW EXPLAIN's code practice of calling JOIN::save_explain_data()
after JOIN::exec() is disastrous for ANALYZE, because it resets
all counters after the first execution. It is stopped
= "Late" test_if_skip_sort_order() calls explicitly update their part
of the query plan.
= Also, I had to rewrite I_S optimization to actually have optimization
and execution stages.
