When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.
When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9
With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.
The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.
Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to
tested manually.

Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
Currently the MySQL server does not keep metadata locks on
schema objects for the duration of a transaction, thus failing
to guarantee the integrity of the schema objects being used
during the transaction and to protect then from concurrent
DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
active transactions using the object being modified.
The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
transactions.
- Incompatible change:
If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
and trying to acquire them all in one go.
But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.
Let's consider an example:
A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.
At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
-- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.
- Incompatible change:
FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.

WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
Make transaction management more modular through a new interface.
The overall objective of this change is to provide groundwork
for the design of transactional DDL locking by cleaning up the
transaction high level API to better distinguish operations implicit
and explicit, and single statement transaction from operations on
the normal transaction.
Having a a high-level interface for transaction management provides
a better base for implementing transactional concepts that are not
always tied to storage engines and also makes it easier to interect
with other higher level modules of the server.

WL#3726 "DDL locking for all metadata objects".
After review fixes in progress.
------------------------------------------------------------
This is the first patch in series. It transforms the metadata
locking subsystem to use a dedicated module (mdl.h,cc). No
significant changes in the locking protocol.
The import passes the test suite with the exception of
deprecated/removed 6.0 features, and MERGE tables. The latter
are subject to a fix by WL#4144.
Unfortunately, the original changeset comments got lost in a merge,
thus this import has its own (largely insufficient) comments.
This patch fixes Bug#25144 "replication / binlog with view breaks".
Warning: this patch introduces an incompatible change:
Under LOCK TABLES, it's no longer possible to FLUSH a table that
was not locked for WRITE.
Under LOCK TABLES, it's no longer possible to DROP a table or
VIEW that was not locked for WRITE.

Fix for assert failures in kill.test which occured when one
tried to kill ALTER TABLE statement on merge table while it
was waiting in wait_while_table_is_used() for other connections
to close this table.
These assert failures stemmed from the fact that cleanup code
in this case assumed that temporary table representing new
version of table was open with adding to THD::temporary_tables
list while code which were opening this temporary table wasn't
always fulfilling this.
This patch changes code that opens new version of table to
always do this linking in. It also streamlines cleanup process

open.

mysql-6.0-codebase revid: 2617.44.1
When assigning the new string value to the variable, the
Item::str_value member was used. This is not according to
the protocol. str_value is an internal member used for
temporary assignments, and is not consistently set for all
string operations. It is set for constant strings, so it would
work in these cases, but not for string functions (concat,
substr, etc.)
The correct approach is to use Item::val_str(..) to evaluate
and retrieve the string.

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.

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
When setting AUTOCOMMIT=1 after starting a transaction, the binary log
did not commit the outstanding transaction. The reason was that the binary
log commit function saw the values of the new settings, deciding that there
were nothing to commit.
Fixed the problem by moving the implicit commit to before the thread option
flags were changed, so that the binary log sees the old values of the flags
instead of the values they will take after the statement.
The "socket" variable is not available on Windows even though
the --socket option can be used to specify the pipe name for
local connections that use a named pipe.
The solution is to ensure that the variable is always defined.
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+.
always rollsback.
The global variable max_binlog_cache_size cannot be set more than 4GB on
32 bit systems, limiting transactions of all storage engines to 4G of changes.
The problem is max_binlog_cache_size is declared as ulong which is 4 bytes
on 32 bit and 8 bytes on 64 bit machines.
Fixed by using ulonglong for max_binlog_cache_size which is 8bytes on 32
and 64 bit machines.The range for max_binlog_cache_size on 32 bit and 64 bit
systems is 4096-18446744073709547520 bytes.
