Other things
- Ensure that ut_d() is set to EXPR if ut_ad() is DEBUG_ASSERT()
If not, we will get a crash in purge_sys_t::~purge_sys_t() as
this ut_ad() code expect's that the ut_d() codes has been executed
Benefits of this patch:
- Removed a lot of calls to strlen(), especially for field_string
- Strings generated by parser are now const strings, less chance of
accidently changing a string
- Removed a lot of calls with LEX_STRING as parameter (changed to pointer)
- More uniform code
- Item::name_length was not kept up to date. Now fixed
- Several bugs found and fixed (Access to null pointers,
access of freed memory, wrong arguments to printf like functions)
- Removed a lot of casts from (const char*) to (char*)
Changes:
- This caused some ABI changes
- lex_string_set now uses LEX_CSTRING
- Some fucntions are now taking const char* instead of char*
- Create_field::change and after changed to LEX_CSTRING
- handler::connect_string, comment and engine_name() changed to LEX_CSTRING
- Checked printf() related calls to find bugs. Found and fixed several
errors in old code.
- A lot of changes from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING, especially related to
parsing and events.
- Some changes from LEX_STRING and LEX_STRING & to LEX_CSTRING*
- Some changes for char* to const char*
- Added printf argument checking for my_snprintf()
- Introduced null_clex_str, star_clex_string, temp_lex_str to simplify
code
- Added item_empty_name and item_used_name to be able to distingush between
items that was given an empty name and items that was not given a name
This is used in sql_yacc.yy to know when to give an item a name.
- select table_name."*' is not anymore same as table_name.*
- removed not used function Item::rename()
- Added comparision of item->name_length before some calls to
my_strcasecmp() to speed up comparison
- Moved Item_sp_variable::make_field() from item.h to item.cc
- Some minimal code changes to avoid copying to const char *
- Fixed wrong error message in wsrep_mysql_parse()
- Fixed wrong code in find_field_in_natural_join() where real_item() was
set when it shouldn't
- ER_ERROR_ON_RENAME was used with extra arguments.
- Removed some (wrong) ER_OUTOFMEMORY, as alloc_root will already
give the error.
TODO:
- Check possible unsafe casts in plugin/auth_examples/qa_auth_interface.c
- Change code to not modify LEX_CSTRING for database name
(as part of lower_case_table_names)
Intermediate commit.
Fix engine list lifetime for sys_var_pluginlist.
The Sys_var class assumes that some operations can be done without
explicitly freeing resources, for example default_value_ptr(). Thus,
methods (like Sys_var_pluginlist::do_check) need to generally work
with temporary lists, which are registered in the THD to be
freed/unlocked automatically. And do_update() needs to make a
permanent copy to store in the global variable.
Intermediate commit.
Ignore unknown engines in --gtid-pos-auto-engines command-line options (but
not SET GLOBAL). This seems useful, to allow a default that auto-creates the
gtid pos table for engines like TokuDB and MyRocks (which greatly benefit
from such), but does not prevent server startup when those engines are not
available.
Intermediate commit.
Implement a --gtid-pos-auto-engines system variable. The variable is a list
of engines for which mysql.gtid_slave_pos_ENGINE should be auto-created if
needed.
This commit only implements the option variable. It is not yet used to
actually auto-create any tables, nor is there a corresponding command-line
version of the option yet.
* make a local variable for target_table->field[col]
* move an often-used bit function to my_bit.h
* remove a non-static and not really needed trivial comparison
function with a very generic name
