Essentially, the problem is that safemalloc is excruciatingly
slow as it checks all allocated blocks for overrun at each
memory management primitive, yielding a almost exponential
slowdown for the memory management functions (malloc, realloc,
free). The overrun check basically consists of verifying some
bytes of a block for certain magic keys, which catches some
simple forms of overrun. Another minor problem is violation
of aliasing rules and that its own internal list of blocks
is prone to corruption.
Another issue with safemalloc is rather the maintenance cost
as the tool has a significant impact on the server code.
Given the magnitude of memory debuggers available nowadays,
especially those that are provided with the platform malloc
implementation, maintenance of a in-house and largely obsolete
memory debugger becomes a burden that is not worth the effort
due to its slowness and lack of support for detecting more
common forms of heap corruption.
Since there are third-party tools that can provide the same
functionality at a lower or comparable performance cost, the
solution is to simply remove safemalloc. Third-party tools
can provide the same functionality at a lower or comparable
performance cost.
The removal of safemalloc also allows a simplification of the
malloc wrappers, removing quite a bit of kludge: redefinition
of my_malloc, my_free and the removal of the unused second
argument of my_free. Since free() always check whether the
supplied pointer is null, redudant checks are also removed.
Also, this patch adds unit testing for my_malloc and moves
my_realloc implementation into the same file as the other
memory allocation primitives.

Bug#13174: SHA2 function
Patch contributed from Bill Karwin, paper unnumbered CLA in Seattle
Implement SHA2 functions.
Chad added code to make it work with YaSSL. Also, he removed the
(probable) bug of embedded server never using SSL-dependent
functions. (libmysqld/Makefile.am didn't read ANY autoconf defs.)
Function specification:
SHA2( string cleartext, integer hash_length )
-> string hash, or NULL
where hash_length is one of 224, 256, 384, or 512. If either is
NULL or a length is unsupported, then the result is NULL. The
resulting string is always the length of the hash_length parameter
or is NULL.
Include the canonical hash examples from the NIST in the test
results.

Bug#32082 : definition of VOID in my_global.h conflicts with Windows
SDK headers
VOID macro is now removed. Its usage is replaced with void cast.
In some cases, where cast does not make much sense (pthread_*, printf,
hash_delete, my_seek), cast is ommited.
2630.39.1, 2630.28.29, 2630.34.3, 2630.34.2, 2630.34.1, 2630.29.29,
2630.29.28, 2630.31.1, 2630.28.13, 2630.28.10, 2617.23.14 and
some other minor revisions.
This patch implements:
WL#4264 "Backup: Stabilize Service Interface" -- all the
server prerequisites except si_objects.{h,cc} themselves (they can
be just copied over, when needed).
WL#4435: Support OUT-parameters in prepared statements.
(and all issues in the initial patches for these two
tasks, that were discovered in pushbuild and during testing).
Bug#39519: mysql_stmt_close() should flush all data
associated with the statement.
After execution of a prepared statement, send OUT parameters of the invoked
stored procedure, if any, to the client.
When using the binary protocol, send the parameters in an additional result
set over the wire. When using the text protocol, assign out parameters to
the user variables from the CALL(@var1, @var2, ...) specification.
The following refactoring has been made:
- Protocol::send_fields() was renamed to Protocol::send_result_set_metadata();
- A new Protocol::send_result_set_row() was introduced to incapsulate
common functionality for sending row data.
- Signature of Protocol::prepare_for_send() was changed: this operation
does not need a list of items, the number of items is fully sufficient.
The following backward incompatible changes have been made:
- CLIENT_MULTI_RESULTS is now enabled by default in the client;
- CLIENT_PS_MULTI_RESUTLS is now enabled by default in the client.

Bug#25822 / WL#3953 - Log Access Denied errors for bad passwords in the error log
Added logging of Access Denied messages on failed new connections to the

message:
Fix max_user_connections_func failure on Solaris.
A connection that failed to log in due to a resource limit could
be returned to the thread pool with a dangling link to user_connect
structure of an old user. Later on it could be authenticated
to a user that doesn't have a resource limit, so this dangling
link won't be reset. --pool-of-threads mode made the situation
easy to reproduce, and thus highlighted a bug that has been
around forever.
Make sure there are no dangling links.

Cleanup pthread_self(), pthread_create(), pthread_join() implementation on Windows.
Prior implementation is was unnecessarily complicated and even differs in embedded
and non-embedded case.
Improvements in this patch:
* pthread_t is now the unique thread ID, instead of HANDLE returned by beginthread
This simplifies pthread_self() to be just straight GetCurrentThreadId().
prior it was much art involved in passing the beginthread() handle from the caller
to the TLS structure in the child thread ( did not work for the main thread of
course)
* remove MySQL specific my_thread_init()/my_thread_end() from pthread_create.
No automagic is done on Unix on pthread_create(). Having the same on Windows will
improve portability and avoid extra #ifdef's
* remove redefinition of getpid() - it was defined as GetCurrentThreadId()

variable. The problem was that THD::connect_utime could be
used without being initialized when the main thread is used
to handle connections (--thread-handling=no-threads).
- Remove bothersome warning messages. This change focuses on the warnings
that are covered by the ignore file: support-files/compiler_warnings.supp.
- Strings are guaranteed to be max uint in length
The server used to trust blindly information from the client about
its capabilities. During the connection handshake the server sends
information about what it supports and then the client sends back a
set of capabilities which cover all of the server's or less.
Before this changeset the server didn't check whether the flags sent
by the client were valid for the server. For example, if the server
doesn't support compressed protocol but the client does and sends that
bit turned on, the server didn't check it. The change make the server code
less error prone to problems related to the value of THD::client_capabilities.
Clearly there is no vulnerability being fixed but this is a maintainenance
fix to prevent misusage in the future.

The problem was that the variable thread_count that contains
the number of active threads was interpreted as a number of
active connections.
The fix is to introduce a new counter for active connections.

Do not send OK/EOF packets to the client until we reached the end of

This is a consolidation, to keep the functionality that is shared by all
SQL statements in one place in the server.
Currently this functionality includes:
- close_thread_tables()
- log_slow_statement().
After this patch and the subsequent patch for Bug#12713, it shall also include:
- ha_autocommit_or_rollback()
- net_end_statement()
- query_cache_end_of_result().
In future it may also include:
- mysql_reset_thd_for_next_command().
partitioned table
Trying INSERT DELAYED on a partitioned table, that has not been
used right before, crashes the server. When a table is used for
select or update, it is kept open for some time. This period I
mean with "right before".
Information about partitioning of a table is stored in form of
a string in the .frm file. Parsing of this string requires a
correctly set up lexical analyzer (lex). The partitioning code
uses a new temporary instance of a lex. But it does still refer
to the previously active lex. The delayd insert thread does not
initialize its lex though...
Added initialization for thd->lex before open table in the delayed
thread and at all other places where it is necessary to call
lex_start() if all tables would be partitioned and need to parse
the .frm file.
