Default values of variables were not subject to upper/lower bounds
and step, while setting variables was. Bounds and step are also
applied to defaults now; defaults are corrected quietly, values
given by the user are corrected, and a correction-warning is thrown
as needed. Lastly, very large values could wrap around, starting
from 0 again. They are bounded at the maximum value for the
respective data-type now if no lower maximum is specified in the
variable's definition.

This is a 5.1 version of the patch.
Problem:
'log' and 'log_slow_queries' were "fixed" variables, i.e. they showed up
in SHOW VARIABLES, but could not be used in expressions like
"select @@log". Also, using them in the SET statement produced an
incorrect "unknown system variable" error.
Solution:
Since as of MySQL 5.1.12 one can enable or disable the general query log
or the slow query log at runtime by changing values of
general_log/slow_query_log, make 'log' and 'log_slow_queries" to be
synonyms for 'general_log' and 'slow_query_log' respectively. This
makes expressions using the '@@var' syntax backward compatible with
5.0 and SHOW VARIABLES output to be consistent with the SET statement.

This is a 5.0 version of the patch, it will be null-merged to 5.1
Problem:
'log' and 'log_slow_queries' were "fixed" variables, i.e. they showed up
in SHOW VARIABLES, but could not be used in expressions like
"select @@log". Also, using them in the SET statement produced an
incorrect "unknown system variable" error.
Solution:
Make 'log' and 'log_slow_queries' read-only dynamic variables to make
them available for use in expressions, and produce a correct error
about the variable being read-only when used in the SET statement.
Buffer used when setting variables was not dimensioned to accomodate
trailing '\0'. An overflow by one character was therefore possible.
CS corrects limits to prevent such overflows.
Problem: we don't evaluate given expression checking values of the
slow_query_log_file/general_log_file, don't check it for NULL.
Fix: evaluate the expression, check result returned.
- 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
This is for bug #29446 "Specifying a myisam_sort_buffer > 4GB on 64 bit machines not possible". Support for myisam_sort_buffer_size > 4 GB on 64-bit Windows will be looked at later in 5.2.
Add --skip-innodb-adaptive-hash-index option, which is a way to
work around the bug (by disabling the adaptive hash feature entirely).
This may be useful even once the bug is fixed, for benchmarking purposes.
There are some workloads for which the adaptive hash index is not effective.
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()
Bug #27417 thd->no_trans_update.stmt lost value inside of SF-exec-stack
Once had been set the flag might later got reset inside of a stored routine
execution stack.
The reason was in that there was no check if a new statement started at time
of resetting.
The artifact affects most of binlogable DML queries. Notice, that multi-update
is wrapped up within
bug@27716 fix, multi-delete bug@29136.
Fixed with saving parent's statement flag of whether the statement modified
non-transactional table, and unioning (merging) the value with that was gained
in mysql_execute_command.
Resettling thd->no_trans_update members into thd->transaction.`member`;
Asserting code;
Effectively the following properties are held.
1. At the end of a substatement thd->transaction.stmt.modified_non_trans_table
reflects the fact if such a table got modified by the substatement.
That also respects THD::really_abort_on_warnin() requirements.
2. Eventually thd->transaction.stmt.modified_non_trans_table will be computed as
the union of the values of all invoked sub-statements.
That fixes this bug#27417;
Computing of thd->transaction.all.modified_non_trans_table is refined to base to
the stmt's value for all the case including insert .. select statement which
before the patch had an extra issue bug@28960.
Minor issues are covered with mysql_load, mysql_delete, and binloggin of insert in
to temp_table select.
The supplied test verifies limitely, mostly asserts. The ultimate testing is defered
for bug@13270, bug@23333.
