f56dd32bf7 Bug#34043: Server loops excessively in _checkchunk() when safemalloc is enabled
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.

client/mysqldump.c:
  Pass my_free directly as its signature is compatible with the
  callback type -- which wasn't the case for free_table_ent.

7f0f32d659 Bug #37521 Row inserted through view not always visible in base
table immediately after

The problem was that rows inserted in a table by one connection was
not immediately visible if another connection queried the table,
even if the insert had committed.

The reason for the problem was that the server sent a status reply
to the client before it actually did the commit. Therefore it was
possible to get an OK from the server before the changes were made
permanent and visible to other connections.

This patch fixes the problem by not sending status messages to the
server until any changes made have been committed. No test case added
as reproducing the error requires very specific timing betweeen the
server and two or more clients.

This patch also fixes the following (duplicate) bugs:
Bug #29334 pseudo-finished SHOW GLOBAL STATUS
Bug #36618 myisam insert not immediately visible to select from another client
Bug #45864 insert on one connection, immediate query on another produces no result
Bug #51329 Inserts from one connection not immediately visible in second
           connection
Bug #41516 Assertion fails when error returned from
           handler::external_lock(thd, F_UNLCK)

9ff272fbbd A 5.5 version of the fix for Bug #54360 "Deadlock DROP/ALTER/CREATE
DATABASE with open HANDLER"

Remove LOCK_create_db, database name locks, and use metadata locks instead.
This exposes CREATE/DROP/ALTER DATABASE statements to the graph-based
deadlock detector in MDL, and paves the way for a safe, deadlock-free
implementation of RENAME DATABASE.

Database DDL statements will now take exclusive metadata locks on
the database name, while table/view/routine DDL statements take
intention exclusive locks on the database name. This prevents race
conditions between database DDL and table/view/routine DDL.
(e.g. DROP DATABASE with concurrent CREATE/ALTER/DROP TABLE)

By adding database name locks, this patch implements
WL#4450 "DDL locking: CREATE/DROP DATABASE must use database locks" and
WL#4985 "DDL locking: namespace/hierarchical locks".

The patch also changes code to use init_one_table() where appropriate.
The new lock_table_names() function requires TABLE_LIST::db_length to
be set correctly, and this is taken care of by init_one_table().

This patch also adds a simple template to help work with 
the mysys HASH data structure.

Most of the patch was written by Konstantin Osipov.

c9221a2a6f BUG#53259 Unsafe statement binlogged in statement format w/MyIsam temp tables
BUG#54872 MBR: replication failure caused by using tmp table inside transaction 
      
Changed criteria to classify a statement as unsafe in order to reduce the
number of spurious warnings. So a statement is classified as unsafe when
there is on-going transaction at any point of the execution if:

1. The mixed statement is about to update a transactional table and
a non-transactional table.

2. The mixed statement is about to update a temporary transactional
table and a non-transactional table.
      
3. The mixed statement is about to update a transactional table and
read from a non-transactional table.

4. The mixed statement is about to update a temporary transactional
table and read from a non-transactional table.

5. The mixed statement is about to update a non-transactional table
and read from a transactional table when the isolation level is
lower than repeatable read.

After updating a transactional table if:

6. The mixed statement is about to update a non-transactional table
and read from a temporary transactional table.
 
7. The mixed statement is about to update a non-transactional table
 and read from a temporary transactional table.

8. The mixed statement is about to update a non-transactionala table
   and read from a temporary non-transactional table.
     
9. The mixed statement is about to update a temporary non-transactional
table and update a non-transactional table.
     
10. The mixed statement is about to update a temporary non-transactional
table and read from a non-transactional table.
     
11. A statement is about to update a non-transactional table and the
option variables.binlog_direct_non_trans_update is OFF.

The reason for this is that locks acquired may not protected a concurrent
transaction of interfering in the current execution and by consequence in
the result. So the patch reduced the number of spurious unsafe warnings.

Besides we fixed a regression caused by BUG#51894, which makes temporary
tables to go into the trx-cache if there is an on-going transaction. In
MIXED mode, the patch for BUG#51894 ignores that the trx-cache may have
updates to temporary non-transactional tables that must be written to the
binary log while rolling back the transaction.
      
So we fix this problem by writing the content of the trx-cache to the
binary log while rolling back a transaction if a non-transactional
temporary table was updated and the binary logging format is MIXED.

0f9ddfa9d8 Bug#42733: Type-punning warnings when compiling MySQL --
strict aliasing violations.

One somewhat major source of strict-aliasing violations and
related warnings is the SQL_LIST structure. For example,
consider its member function `link_in_list` which takes
a pointer to pointer of type T (any type) as a pointer to
pointer to unsigned char. Dereferencing this pointer, which
is done to reset the next field, violates strict-aliasing
rules and might cause problems for surrounding code that
uses the next field of the object being added to the list.

The solution is to use templates to parametrize the SQL_LIST
structure in order to deference the pointers with compatible
types. As a side bonus, it becomes possible to remove quite
a few casts related to acessing data members of SQL_LIST.

sql/handler.h:
  Use the appropriate template type argument.
sql/item.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary cast.
sql/item_subselect.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/item_sum.cc:
  Use the appropriate template type argument.
  Remove now-unnecessary cast.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  Move SQL_LIST structure to sql_list.h
  Use the appropriate template type argument.
sql/sp.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_delete.cc:
  Use the appropriate template type argument.
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_derived.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_lex.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_lex.h:
  SQL_LIST now takes a template type argument which must
  match the type of the elements of the list. Use forward
  declaration when the type is not available, it is used
  in pointers anyway.
sql/sql_list.h:
  Rename SQL_LIST to SQL_I_List. The template parameter is
  the type of object that is stored in the list.
sql/sql_olap.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_select.cc:
  Remove now-unnecessary casts.
sql/sql_show.cc:

sql/sql_table.cc:
