Approximative, because it's using our binlogging way (what we call "query"-level) and this is not as good as record-level binlog (5.1) would be. It imposes several
limitations to routines, and has caveats (which I'll document, and for which the server will try to issue errors but that is not always possible).
Reason I don't propagate caller info to the binlog as planned is that on master and slave
users may be different; even with that some caveats would remain.
remove FIX_GCC_LINKING_PROBLEM and -DDEFINE_CXA_PURE_VIRTUAL
replace echo in configure.in with AC_MSG_WARN/AC_MSG_ERROR
don't set -DUSE_MYSYS_NEW for gcc 2.95
set $USE_MYSYS_NEW even if CXX is g++
yassl bugfixes
instantiate all yassl templates explicitly
Semi-synchronous replication for InnoDB type tables; before telling the client that a commit has been processed, wait that the replication thread has returned from my_net_send() where it sends the binlog to the slave; note that TCP/IP, even with the TCP_NODELAY option does not guarantee that the slave has RECEIVED the data - this is just heuristic at the moment; this is useful in failover: in almost all cases, every transaction that has returned from the commit has been sent and processed in the slave, which makes failover to the slave simpler if the master crashes; the code does not work yet as is, because MySQL should call innobase_report_binlog_offset_and_commit() in a commit; we will most probably return that call to 5.0.x, to make InnoDB Hot Backup and group commit to work again; XA code broke them temporarily in 5.0.3
most InnoDB threads are not terminated properly and the buffer pool is not flushed
to disk. Still no committed transaction is lost as we flush the logs to disk.
InnoDB does crash recovery at startup after this shutdown.
Using this shutdown in testsuite (mysql-test-run --mysqld=--innodb_fast_shutdown=2) saved 3 minutes (13% of total time).
CAST() now produces warnings when casting a wrong INTEGER or CHAR values. This also applies to implicite string to number casts. (Bug #5912)
ALTER TABLE now fails in STRICT mode if it generates warnings.
Inserting a zero date in a DATE, DATETIME or TIMESTAMP column during TRADITIONAL mode now produces an error. (Bug #5933)
provide created shared memory objects with proper
access rights to make them usable when client and server
are running under different accounts.
Post review fixes.
s/sleep/safe_sleep (thread safe); sleep 0/1/2/3/4/5/5/5 (get slave less late);
no message on error log (deadlock is too common sometimes), a global counter
instead (SHOW STATUS LIKE 'slave_retried_transactions').
Plus a fix for libmysql/Makefile.shared
