Currently there are mechanism to mark a system variable as
deprecated, but they are only used to print warning messages
when a deprecated variable is set.
Leverage the existing mechanisms in order to make the
deprecation information available at the --help output of mysqld by:
* Moving the deprecation information (i.e `deprecation_substitute`
attribute) from the `sys_var` class into the `my_option` struct.
As every `sys_var` contains its own `my_option` struct, the access
to the deprecation information remains available to `sys_var`
objects. `my_getotp` functions, which works directly with
`my_option` structs, gain access to this information while building
the --help output.
* For plugin variables, leverages the `PLUGIN_VAR_DEPRECATED` flag
and set the `deprecation_substitute` attribute accordingly when
building the `my_option` objects.
* Change the `option_cmp` function to use the `deprecation_substitute`
attribute instead of the name when sorting the options. This way
deprecated options and the substitutes will be grouped together.

Similar to #2480.
567b681 introduced safe_strcpy() to minimize the use of C with
potentially unsafe memory overflow with strcpy() whose use is
discouraged.
Replace instances of strcpy() with safe_strcpy() where possible, limited
here to files in the `sql/` directory.

This patch also fixes:
MDEV-33050 Build-in schemas like oracle_schema are accent insensitive
MDEV-33084 LASTVAL(t1) and LASTVAL(T1) do not work well with lower-case-table-names=0
MDEV-33085 Tables T1 and t1 do not work well with ENGINE=CSV and lower-case-table-names=0

- Removing the virtual function strnncoll() from MY_COLLATION_HANDLER
- Adding a wrapper function CHARSET_INFO::streq(), to compare
two strings for equality. For now it calls strnncoll() internally.
In the future it will turn into a virtual function.
- Adding new accent sensitive case insensitive collations:
- utf8mb4_general1400_as_ci
- utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci
They implement accent sensitive case insensitive comparison.
The weight of a character is equal to the code point of its
upper case variant. These collations use Unicode-14.0.0 casefolding data.
The result of
my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci.strcoll()
is very close to the former
my_charset_utf8mb3_general_ci.strcasecmp()
There is only a difference in a couple dozen rare characters, because:
- the switch from "tolower" to "toupper" comparison, to make
utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci closer to utf8mb3_general_ci
- the switch from Unicode-3.0.0 to Unicode-14.0.0
This difference should be tolarable. See the list of affected
characters in the MDEV description.
Note, utf8mb4_general1400_as_ci correctly handles non-BMP characters!
Unlike utf8mb4_general_ci, it does not treat all BMP characters
as equal.
- Adding classes representing names of the file based database objects:
Lex_ident_db
Lex_ident_table
Lex_ident_trigger
Their comparison collation depends on the underlying
file system case sensitivity and on --lower-case-table-names
and can be either my_charset_bin or my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci.
- Adding classes representing names of other database objects,
whose names have case insensitive comparison style,
using my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci:
Lex_ident_column
Lex_ident_sys_var
Lex_ident_user_var
Lex_ident_sp_var
Lex_ident_ps
Lex_ident_i_s_table
Lex_ident_window
Lex_ident_func
Lex_ident_partition
Lex_ident_with_element
Lex_ident_rpl_filter
Lex_ident_master_info
Lex_ident_host
Lex_ident_locale
Lex_ident_plugin
Lex_ident_engine
Lex_ident_server
Lex_ident_savepoint
Lex_ident_charset
engine_option_value::Name
- All the mentioned Lex_ident_xxx classes implement a method streq():
if (ident1.streq(ident2))
do_equal();
This method works as a wrapper for CHARSET_INFO::streq().
- Changing a lot of "LEX_CSTRING name" to "Lex_ident_xxx name"
in class members and in function/method parameters.
- Replacing all calls like
system_charset_info->coll->strcasecmp(ident1, ident2)
to
ident1.streq(ident2)
- Taking advantage of the c++11 user defined literal operator
for LEX_CSTRING (see m_strings.h) and Lex_ident_xxx (see lex_ident.h)
data types. Use example:
const Lex_ident_column primary_key_name= "PRIMARY"_Lex_ident_column;
is now a shorter version of:
const Lex_ident_column primary_key_name=
Lex_ident_column({STRING_WITH_LEN("PRIMARY")});
When passing in an invalid value (e.g. incorrect data type) for a variable, the
server startup will fail with misleading error messages.
The behavior **before** this change:
For server options:
- The error message will indicate that the argument is being adjusted to a valid value
- Server startup still fails
For plugin options:
- The error message will indicate that the argument is being adjusted to a valid value
- The plugin is still disabled
- Server startup fails with a message that it does not recognize the plugin option
The behavior **after** this change:
For server options:
- Output that an invalid argument was provided
- Exit server startup
For plugin options:
- Output that an invalid argument was provided
- Disable the plugin
- Attempt to continue server startup

Under terms of MDEV 27490 we'll add support for non-BMP identifiers
and upgrade casefolding information to Unicode version 14.0.0.
In Unicode-14.0.0 conversion to lower and upper cases can increase octet length
of the string, so conversion won't be possible in-place any more.
This patch removes virtual functions performing in-place casefolding:
- my_charset_handler_st::casedn_str()
- my_charset_handler_st::caseup_str()
and fixes the code to use the non-inplace functions instead:
- my_charset_handler_st::casedn()
- my_charset_handler_st::caseup()
After MDEV-31400, plugins are allowed to ask for retries when failing
initialisation. However, such failures also cause plugin system
variables to be deleted (plugin_variables_deinit()) before retrying
and are not re-added during retry.
We fix this by checking that if the plugin has requested a retry the
variables are not deleted. Because plugin_deinitialize() also calls
plugin_variables_deinit(), if the retry fails, the variables will
still be deleted.
Alternatives considered:
- remove the plugin_variables_deinit() from plugin_initialize() error
handling altogether. We decide to take a more conservative approach
here.
- re-add the system variables during retry. It is more complicated
than simply iterating over plugin->system_vars and call
my_hash_insert(). For example we will need to assign values to
the test_load field and extract more code from test_plugin_options(),
if that is possible.

Also in the startup, lets not "Error" on attempting to install a
mysql.plugin that is already there. We use the 'if_not_exists'
parameter to true to downgrade this to a "Note".
Also corrects: MDEV-32041 "plugin already loaded" should be a Warning, not an Error
Other things:
- Added DBUG_EXECUTE_IF("print_allocated_thread_memory") at end of query
to easier find not freed memory allocated by THD
- Removed free_root() from plugin_init() that did nothing.
Adding a global/session var `redirect_url' of string type. The initial
value is empty. Can be supplied in mysqld with --redirect-url or set
in --init-connect. A valid redirect_url should be of the format
{mysql,mariadb}://host[:port]
where <host> is an arbitrary string not containing colons, and <port>
is a number between 0 and 65535 inclusive.
The variable will be used by the server to notify clients that they
should connect to another server, specified by the value of the
variable, if not empty.
The notification is done by the inclusion of the variable in
session_track_system_variable.
Merge sys_var_charptr with sys_var_charptr_base, as well as merge
Sys_var_session_lexstring into Sys_var_lexstring. Also refactored
update methods of sys_var_charptr accordingly.
Because the class is more generic, session_update() calls
sys_var_charptr::session_update() which does not assume a buffer field
associated with THD, but instead call strdup/free, we get rid of
THD::default_master_connection_buff accordingly. This also makes THD
smaller by ~192 bytes, and there can be many thousands of concurrent
THDs.
There are two functions to extract a Field::val_str() value
as a LEX_STRING or LEX_CSTRING pointing to the data allocated on a MEM_ROOT:
char *get_field(MEM_ROOT *mem, Field *field);
bool get_field(MEM_ROOT *mem, Field *field, class String *res);
The first function requires strlen() calls to make a LEX_CSTRING/LEX_STRING.
The second function requires a redundant String buffer,
which is used only as a temporary proxy value pointing to a MEM_ROOT fragment
(and does not use any String dynamic allocation methods).
This patch add a native way to extract a Field::val_str() value
as a LEX_STRING or LEX_CSTRING pointing to a MEM_ROOT fragment.
It helps to remove redundant strlen() calls and redundant String buffers.
- Adding a new method:
LEX_STRING Field::val_lex_string_strmake(MEM_ROOT *mem);
- Reusing the new method Field::val_lex_string_strmake() in;
bool get_field(MEM_ROOT *mem, Field *field, String *res);
Also, moving it from table.cc to a static function in sql_help.cc.
It is used in sql_help.cc only, and we don't want it to be reused
in other parts of the code (to avoid redundant String buffers).
- Reusing the new method Field::val_lex_string_strmake() in this function:
char *get_field(MEM_ROOT *mem, Field *field);
- Replacing get_field() to Field::val_lex_string_strmake() in these files:
sql_plugin.cc (redundant String buffers were removed)
sql_udf.cc (redundant strlen() calls were removed)
Note, this function:
char *get_field(MEM_ROOT *mem, Field *field);
is still used in a number of files:
event_data_objects.cc
event_db_repository.cc
sql_acl.cc
sql_servers.cc
These remaining calls will be removed by separate patches,
and get_field() will be removed after that.
