DO WHAT YOU EXPECT"
Fix info:
--------
Backport of the deprecation bug fix (WL#5265) for global variable
'THREAD_CONCURRENCY' from mysql-5.6 to mysql-5.5
Note: With this backport, certain additional deprecation warnings
would be reported under error conditions while setting the
global/session variables.
Problem:
When a system variable is being set to the DEFAULT value, the server
segfaults if there is no 'default' defined for that system variable.
For example, for the following statements server segfaults.
set session rand_seed1=DEFAULT;
set session rand_seed2=DEFAULT;
Analysis:
The class sys_var represents one system variable. The class set_var represents
one system variable that is to be updated. The class set_var contains two
pieces of information, the system variable to object (set_var::var) member
and the value to be updated (set_var::value).
When the given value is 'default', the set_var::value will be NULL.
To update a system variable the member set_var::update() will be called,
which in turn will call sys_var::update() or sys_var::set_default() depending
on whether a value has been provided or not.
If the sys_var::set_default() is called, then the default value is obtained
either from the session scope or the global scope. This default value is
stored in a local temporary set_var object and then passed on to the
sys_var::update() call. A local temporary set_var object is needed because
sys_var::set_default() does not take set_var as an argument.
In the given scenario, the set_var::update() called sys_var::set_default().
And this sys_var::set_default() obtains the default value and then calls
sys_var::update(). To pass this value to sys_var::update() a local set_var
object is being created. While creating this local set_var object, its member
set_var::var was incorrectly left as 0.
Solution:
Instead of creating a local set_var object, the sys_var::set_default() can take
the set_var object as an argument just like sys_var::update().

Problem:
When the VALUES() function is inappropriately used in the SET stmt the server
exits.
set port = values(v);
This happens because the values(v) will be parsed as an Item_insert_value by
the parser. Both Item_field and Item_insert_value return the type as
FIELD_ITEM. But for Item_insert_value the field_name member is NULL. In
set_var constructor, when the type of the item is FIELD_ITEM we try to access
the non-existent field_name.
The class hierarchy is as follows:
Item -> Item_ident -> Item_field -> Item_insert_value
The Item_ident::field_name is NULL for Item_insert_value.
Solution:
In the parsing stage, in the set_var constructor if the item type is
FIELD_ITEM and if the field_name is non-existent, then it is probably
the Item_insert_value. So leave it as it is for later evaluation.

NUMBERS
If a system variable was declared as deprecated without mention of an
alternative, the message would look funny, e.g. for @@delayed_insert_limit:
Warning 1287 '@@delayed_insert_limit' is deprecated and
will be removed in MySQL .
The message was meant to display the version number, but it's not
possible to give one when declaring a system variable.
The fix does two things:
1) The definition of the message
ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX_NO_REPLACEMENT is changed so that it does
not display a version number. I.e. in English the message now reads:
Warning 1287 The syntax '@@delayed_insert_limit' is deprecated and
will be removed in a future version.
2) The message ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX_WITH_VER is discontinued in
favor of ER_WARN_DEPRECATED_SYNTAX for system variables. This change
was already done in versions 5.6 and above as part of wl#5265. This
part is simply back-ported from the worklog.

Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
Some of the server implementations don't support dates later
than 2038 due to the internal time type being 32 bit.
Added checks so that the server will refuse dates that cannot
be handled by either throwing an error when setting date at
runtime or by refusing to start or shutting down the server if
the system date cannot be stored in my_time_t.
This patch:
- Moves all definitions from the mysql_priv.h file into
header files for the component where the variable is
defined
- Creates header files if the component lacks one
- Eliminates all include directives from mysql_priv.h
- Eliminates all circular include cycles
- Rename time.cc to sql_time.cc
- Rename mysql_priv.h to sql_priv.h

There should be indeed no Note present because there is in fact autoincrement

When the query cache is disabled, the server shouldn't attempt to take the

NOTE
====
mysql-5.1-rpl-merge has been made a mirror of mysql-next-mr:
- "mysql-5.1-rpl-merge$ bzr pull ../mysql-next-mr"
This is the first cset (merge/...) committed after pulling
from mysql-next-mr.
Backport from 6.0 to 5.1.
Only those sync points are included, which are used in debug_sync.test.
The Debug Sync Facility allows to place synchronization points
in the code:
open_tables(...)
DEBUG_SYNC(thd, "after_open_tables");
lock_tables(...)
When activated, a sync point can
- Send a signal and/or
- Wait for a signal
Nomenclature:
- signal: A value of a global variable that persists
until overwritten by a new signal. The global
variable can also be seen as a "signal post"
or "flag mast". Then the signal is what is
attached to the "signal post" or "flag mast".
- send a signal: Assign the value (the signal) to the global
variable ("set a flag") and broadcast a
global condition to wake those waiting for
a signal.
- wait for a signal: Loop over waiting for the global condition until
the global value matches the wait-for signal.
Please find more information in the top comment in debug_sync.cc
or in the worklog entry.
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
The fix proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665 introduces a performance issue
when fsyncing the master.info, relay.info and relay-log.bin* after #th events.
Although such solution has been proposed to reduce the probability of corrupted
files due to a slave-crash, the performance penalty introduced by it has
made the approach impractical for highly intensive workloads.
In a nutshell, the option --syn-relay-log proposed in BUG#35542 and BUG#31665
simultaneously fsyncs master.info, relay-log.info and relay-log.bin* and
this is the main source of performance issues.
This patch introduces new options that give more control to the user on
what should be fsynced and how often:
1) (--sync-master-info, integer) which syncs the master.info after #th event;
2) (--sync-relay-log, integer) which syncs the relay-log.bin* after #th
events.
3) (--sync-relay-log-info, integer) which syncs the relay.info after #th
transactions.
To provide both performance and increased reliability, we recommend the following
setup:
1) --sync-master-info = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
2) --sync-relay-log = 0 eventually the operating system will fsync it;
3) --sync-relay-log-info = 1 fsyncs it after every transaction;
Notice, that the previous setup does not reduce the probability of
corrupted master.info and relay-log.bin*. To overcome the issue, this patch also
introduces a recovery mechanism that right after restart throws away relay-log.bin*
retrieved from a master and updates the master.info based on the relay.info:
4) (--relay-log-recovery, boolean) which enables a recovery mechanism that
throws away relay-log.bin* after a crash.
However, it can only recover the incorrect binlog file and position in master.info,
if other informations (host, port password, etc) are corrupted or incorrect,
then this recovery mechanism will fail to work.
BUG#31665 sync_binlog should cause relay logs to be synchronized
NOTE: Backporting the patch to next-mr.
Add sync_relay_log option to server, this option works for relay log
the same as option sync_binlog for binlog. This option also synchronize
master info to disk when set to non-zero value.
Original patches from Sinisa and Mark, with some modifications
Inconsistent behavior of session variable max_allowed_packet
(and net_buffer_length); only assignment to the global variable
has any effect, without this being obvious to the user.
The patch for Bug#22891 is backported to 5.0, making the two
session variables read-only. As this is a backport to GA
software, the error used when trying to assign to the read-
only variable is ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR. The error message is the
same as in 5.1+.
- Add support for setting it as a server commandline argument
- Add support for those switches:
= no_index_merge
= no_index_merge_union
= no_index_merge_sort_union
= no_index_merge_intersection
The SHOW VARIABLES LIKE .../SELECT @@/SELECT ... FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VARIABLES
were assuming that all the system variables are in system charset (UTF-8).
However the variables that are settable through command line will have a different
character set (character_set_filesystem).
Fixed the server to remember the correct character set of basedir, datadir, tmpdir,
ssl, plugin_dir, slave_load_tmpdir, innodb variables; init_connect and init_slave
variables and use it when processing data.
Several system variables did not behave like system variables should do.
When trying to SET them or use them in SELECT, they were reported as
"unknown system variable". But they appeared in SHOW VARIABLES.
This has been fixed by removing the "fixed_vars" array of variables
and integrating the variables into the normal system variables chain.
All of these variables do now behave as read-only global-only
variables. Trying to SET them tells they are read-only, trying to
SELECT the session value tells they are global only. Selecting the
global value works. It delivers the same value as SHOW VARIABLES.
set but is ignored".
This patch makes @@session.max_allowed_packed and
@@session.net_buffer_length read-only as suggested in the bug
report. The user will have to use SET GLOBAL (and reconnect)
to alter the session values of these variables.
The error string ER_VARIABLE_IS_READONLY is introduced.
Tests are modified accordingly.
The code to get read the value of a system variable was extracting its value
on PREPARE stage and was substituting the value (as a constant) into the parse tree.
Note that this must be a reversible transformation, i.e. it must be reversed before
each re-execution.
Unfortunately this cannot be reliably done using the current code, because there are
other non-reversible source tree transformations that can interfere with this
reversible transformation.
Fixed by not resolving the value at PREPARE, but at EXECUTE (as the rest of the
functions operate). Added a cache of the value (so that it's constant throughout
the execution of the query). Note that the cache also caches NULL values.
Updated an obsolete related test suite (variables-big) and the code to test the
result type of system variables (as per bug 74).
SUPER is not required to change binlog format for session
A user without SUPER privileges can change the value of the
session variable BINLOG_FORMAT, causing problems for a DBA.
This changeset requires a user to have SUPER privileges to
change the value of the session variable BINLOG_FORMAT, and
not only the global variable BINLOG_FORMAT.
The event scheduler was not designed to work in embedded mode. This
patch disables and excludes the event scheduler when the server is
compiled for embedded build.
We have "set" variables, which can accept empty values
(like sql_mode), and which can not (like log_output). The problem
was that the code does not distinguish them and allow empty
values for every set variable.
The fix is to introduce an attribute of a set variable telling
whether it can accept empty values.
