and cryptic error 1126 message
The problem was that dlopen() related code was using just a subset
of the path normalization routines used in other places.
Fixed the expansion of the pre-dlopen() behavior for plugins and UDFs
to use a platform-dependent consistent encoding of the paths.
Fixed the error dlopen() error handling to take the correct error message
and strip off the trailing newline character(s).
Fixed tests to do a platform independent replace of directories and to
account for the traling slash.
CREATE_TIME IN INFORMATION_SC
It was impossible to determine MEMORY table creation time,
since it wasn't stored/exposed.
With this patch creation time is saved and it is available via
I_S.TABLES.CREATE_TIME.
Note: it was decided that additional analysis is required before
implementing UPDATE_TIME. Thus this patch doesn't store UPDATE_TIME.
This fix was accidentally pushed to mysql-5.1 after the 5.1.59 clone-off in
bzr revision id marko.makela@oracle.com-20110829081642-z0w992a0mrc62s6w
with the fix of Bug#12704861 Corruption after a crash during BLOB update
but not merged to mysql-5.5 and upwards.
In the Barracuda formats, the clustered index record no longer
contains a prefix of off-page columns. Because of this, the undo log
must contain these prefixes, so that purge and multi-versioning will
continue to work. However, this also means that an undo log record can
become too big to fit in an undo log page. (It is a limitation of the
undo log that undo records cannot span across multiple pages.)
In case the checks for undo log size fail when CREATE TABLE or CREATE
INDEX is executed, we need a fallback that blocks a modification
operation when the undo log record would exceed the maximum size.
trx_undo_free_last_page_func(): Renamed from trx_undo_free_page_in_rollback().
Define the trx_t parameter only in debug builds.
trx_undo_free_last_page(): Wrapper for trx_undo_free_last_page_func().
Pass the trx_t parameter only in debug builds.
trx_undo_truncate_end_func(): Renamed from trx_undo_truncate_end().
Define the trx_t parameter only in debug builds. Rewrite a for(;;) loop
as a while loop for clarity.
trx_undo_truncate_end(): Wrapper for from trx_undo_truncate_end_func().
Pass the trx_t parameter only in debug builds.
trx_undo_erase_page_end(): Return TRUE if the page was non-empty
to begin with. Refuse to erase empty pages.
trx_undo_report_row_operation(): If the page for which the undo log
was too big was empty, free the undo page and return DB_TOO_BIG_RECORD.

Converting the number zero to binary and back yielded the number zero,
but with no digits, i.e. zero precision.
This made the multiply algorithm go haywire in various ways.
Also addressed issues in bug #11745133, where we could mark a table
corrupted instead of crashing the server when found a corrupted buffer/page
if the table created with innodb_file_per_table on.
This patch adds a new client utility that enables or disables plugin
features. The utility disables or enables a plugin using values (name,
soname, and symbols) provided via a configuration file by the same name.
For example, to ENABLE the daemon_example plugin, the utility will read
the daemon_example.ini configuration file and use the values contained to
enable or disable the plugin.
CLIENT TOOLS
The fix is to backport part of revision:
- alexander.nozdrin@oracle.com-20101006150613-ls60rb2tq5dpyb5c
from mysql-5.5. In detail, we add the oracle welcome notice
header file proposed in the original patch and include/use it
in client/mysqlbinlog.cc, replacing the existing and obsolete
notice.
The types mysql_event_general/mysql_event_connection are
being cast to the incompatible type mysql_event. The way
mysql_event and the other types are designed are prone to
strict aliasing violations and can break things depending
on how compilers optimizes this code.
This patch fixes audit interface, so it confirms to strict-
aliasing rules. It introduces incompatible changes to audit
interface:
- mysql_event type has been removed;
- event_class has been removed from mysql_event_generic and
mysql_event_connection types;
- st_mysql_audit::event_notify() second argument is event_class;
- st_mysql_audit::event_notify() third argument is event of type
(const void *).
"Writing Audit Plugins" section of manual should be updated:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/writing-audit-plugins.html
With this change, the index prefix column length lifted from 767 bytes
to 3072 bytes if "innodb_large_prefix" is set to "true".

The problem is that although AIX implements bzero, its prototype
is not declared by default. Since AC_CHECK_FUNC(bzero) succeeds
even though a prototype is not declared, this breaks compilation
in C++ files where a prototype is required.
The solution is to only use bzero if a prototype is also declared.
In sql_class.cc, 'row_count', of type 'ha_rows', was used as last argument for
ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD which is
"Incorrect %-.32s value: '%-.128s' for column '%.192s' at row %ld".
So 'ha_rows' was used as 'long'.
On SPARC32 Solaris builds, 'long' is 4 bytes and 'ha_rows' is 'longlong' i.e. 8 bytes.
So the printf-like code was reading only the first 4 bytes.
Because the CPU is big-endian, 1LL is 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01
so the first four bytes yield 0. So the warning message had "row 0" instead of
"row 1" in test outfile_loaddata.test:
-Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 1
+Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 0
All error-messaging functions which internally invoke some printf-life function
are potential candidate for such mistakes.
One apparently easy way to catch such mistakes is to use
ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT (from my_attribute.h).
But this works only when call site has both:
a) the format as a string literal
b) the types of arguments.
So:
func(ER(ER_BLAH), 10);
will silently not be checked, because ER(ER_BLAH) is not known at
compile time (it is known at run-time, and depends on the chosen
language).
And
func("%s", a va_list argument);
has the same problem, as the *real* type of arguments is not
known at this site at compile time (it's known in some caller).
Moreover,
func(ER(ER_BLAH));
though possibly correct (if ER(ER_BLAH) has no '%' markers), will not
compile (gcc says "error: format not a string literal and no format
arguments").
Consequences:
1) ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT is here added only to functions which in practice
take "string literal" formats: "my_error_reporter" and "print_admin_msg".
2) it cannot be added to the other functions: my_error(),
push_warning_printf(), Table_check_intact::report_error(),
general_log_print().
To do a one-time check of functions listed in (2), the following
"static code analysis" has been done:
1) replace
my_error(ER_xxx, arguments for substitution in format)
with the equivalent
my_printf_error(ER_xxx,ER(ER_xxx), arguments for substitution in
format),
so that we have ER(ER_xxx) and the arguments *in the same call site*
2) add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT to push_warning_printf(),
Table_check_intact::report_error(), general_log_print()
3) replace ER(xxx) with the hard-coded English text found in
errmsg.txt (like: ER(ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR) is replaced with
"Unknown error"), so that a call site has the format as string literal
4) this way, ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT can effectively do its job
5) compile, fix errors detected by ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT
6) revert steps 1-2-3.
The present patch has no compiler error when submitted again to the
static code analysis above.
It cannot catch all problems though: see Field::set_warning(), in
which a call to push_warning_printf() has a variable error
(thus, not replacable by a string literal); I checked set_warning() calls
by hand though.
See also WL 5883 for one proposal to avoid such bugs from appearing
again in the future.
The issues fixed in the patch are:
a) mismatch in types (like 'int' passed to '%ld')
b) more arguments passed than specified in the format.
This patch resolves mismatches by changing the type/number of arguments,
not by changing error messages of sql/share/errmsg.txt. The latter would be wrong,
per the following old rule: errmsg.txt must be as stable as possible; no insertions
or deletions of messages, no changes of type or number of printf-like format specifiers,
are allowed, as long as the change impacts a message already released in a GA version.
If this rule is not followed:
- Connectors, which use error message numbers, will be confused (by insertions/deletions
of messages)
- using errmsg.sys of MySQL 5.1.n with mysqld of MySQL 5.1.(n+1)
could produce wrong messages or crash; such usage can easily happen if
installing 5.1.(n+1) while /etc/my.cnf still has --language=/path/to/5.1.n/xxx;
or if copying mysqld from 5.1.(n+1) into a 5.1.n installation.
When fixing b), I have verified that the superfluous arguments were not used in the format
in the first 5.1 GA (5.1.30 'bteam@astra04-20081114162938-z8mctjp6st27uobm').
Had they been used, then passing them today, even if the message doesn't use them
anymore, would have been necessary, as explained above.
THAT CALL STORED PROCEDURES.
The bug was introduced by WL#4435. The problem was that if a stored
procedure generated a few result sets with different set of columns,
a new memory would be allocated after every EXECUTE for every
result set.
The fix is to introduce a new memory root in scope of MYSQL_STMT,
and to store result-set metadata in that memory root.
