* no automatic --loose-skip-innodb added by mtr based on the test name.
instead loose-skip-innodb is now in the default_mysqld.cnf
* have_innodb_plugin.inc is changed to give a verbose "skip" message
(instead of "require: true")
* My::Suite class. It's support in mtr, and everywhere
* support for suite.pm
* when sorting tests, take combinations into account
* support for SUITENAME_COMBINATIONS
* no special treatment for innodb_plugin in mtr_cases.pm
* two special pre-created config groups: ENV and OPT
* allow option names to start from #
* allow magic option to have an argument
* remove dead code
* fix @-substitution to works as expected
* new processes take the value of $opt_verbose automatically, no need to pass it to a constructor
* innodb_plugin suite uses suite.pm and combinations file to test as much as possible
(innodb plugin, xtradb plugin, xtradb static - whatever available)
* besides test-master.opt and test-slave.opt a test.opt file is also
loaded, both for master and slave
* .opt files for all included files are loaded too
* progress report in the xterm titlebar
timeout
In STMT and MIXED modes, a statement that changes both non-transactional and
transactional tables must be written to the binary log whenever there are
changes to non-transactional tables. This means that the statement gets into the
binary log even when the changes to the transactional tables fail. In particular
, in the presence of a failure such statement is annotated with the error number
and wrapped in a begin/rollback. On the slave, while applying the statement, it
is expected the same failure and the rollback prevents the transactional changes
to be persisted.
Unfortunately, statements that fail due to concurrency issues (e.g. deadlocks,
timeouts) are logged in the same way causing the slave to stop as the statements
are applied sequentially by the SQL Thread. To fix this bug, we automatically
ignore concurrency failures on the slave. Specifically, the following failures
are ignored: ER_LOCK_WAIT_TIMEOUT, ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK and ER_XA_RBDEADLOCK.
