Bug#56657: Test still uses "--exec rm -f ..." which is non-portable
Bug#56601: Test uses Unix path for temporary file, fails, and writes misleading message
Several tests that was written in a non portable way (failed on windows)
Fixed by
1) backporting the fix for replace_result to also apply to list_files
(mysqltest from mysql-trunk)
2) replacing all #p#/#sp#/#tmp# to #P#/#SP#/#TMP#/
(innodb always converts filenames to lower case in windows).
3) replacing '--exec rm -f' with '--remove_files_wildcard'
4) replacing a perl snippet with '--write_file'
corruption on ADD PARTITION and LOCK TABLE
Bug#53770: Server crash at handler.cc:2076 on
LOAD DATA after timed out COALESCE PARTITION
5.5 fix for:
Bug#51042: REORGANIZE PARTITION can leave table in an
inconsistent state in case of crash
Needs to be back-ported to 5.1
5.5 fix for:
Bug#50418: DROP PARTITION does not interact with
transactions
Main problem was non-persistent operations done
before meta-data lock was taken (53770+53676).
And 53676 needed to keep the table/partitions opened and locked
while copying the data to the new partitions.
Also added thorough tests to spot some additional bugs
in the ddl_log code, which could result in bad state
between the .frm and partitions.
Collapsed patch, includes all fixes required from the reviewers.
