WL#1717 "binlog-innodb consistency".
Now when mysqld starts, if InnoDB does a crash recovery, we use the binlog name
and position retrieved from InnoDB (corresponding to the last transaction
successfully committed by InnoDB) to cut any rolled back transaction from
the binary log. This is triggered by the --innodb-safe-binlog option.
Provided you configure mysqld to fsync() InnoDB at every commit (using
flush_log_at_trx_commit) and to fsync() the binlog at every write
(using --sync-binlog=1), this behaviour guarantees that a master always has
consistency between binlog and InnoDB, whenever the crash happens.
6 tests to verify that it works.
Added basic per-thread time zone functionality (based on public
domain elsie-code). Now user can select current time zone
(from the list of time zones described in system tables).
All NOW-like functions honor this time zone, values of TIMESTAMP
type are interpreted as values in this time zone, so now
our TIMESTAMP type behaves similar to Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH
LOCAL TIME ZONE (or proper PostgresSQL type).
WL#1266 "CONVERT_TZ() - basic time with time zone conversion
function".
Fixed problems described in Bug #2336 (Different number of warnings
when inserting bad datetime as string or as number). This required
reworking of datetime realted warning hadling (they now generated
at Field object level not in conversion functions).
Optimization: Now Field class descendants use table->in_use member
instead of current_thd macro.
character set introducer": add new item type to be returned before from
Item_param until it's value is set.
This way items like Item_bool_func2 and udf_handler won't treat this item
as constant literal when statement is prepared.
binlog even if they changed nothing, and a test for this.
This is useful when users use these commands to clean up their master and slave by issuing
one command on master (assume master and slave have slightly different data for some
reason and you want to clean up both).
Note that I have not changed multi-table DELETE and multi-table UPDATE because their
error-reporting mechanism is more complicated.
It's not possible to quote the definition according to the current sql_mode
setting, so instead we use the setting stored with the SP (that's how it's
parsed anyway), and show this setting in the SHOW CREATE output.
In mysqlbinlog, there was a problem with how we escaped the content of a string user variable.
To be perfect, we should have escaped with character_set_client. But this charset is unknown
to mysqlbinlog. So the simplest is to print the string in hex. This is unreadable but
100% safe with any charset (checked with Bar), no more need to bother with character_set_client.
