Merge fix for bug 56817 from mysql-5.1 to mysql-5.5.

mysql-test/include/have_dbi_dbd-mysql.inc

+#
+# Originally created by John Embretsen, 2011-01-26.
+#
+# Checks for the existence of Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql as seen from the
+# perl installation used by "external" executable perl scripts, i.e. scripts
+# that are executed as standalone scripts interpreted by the perl installation
+# specified by the "shebang" line in the top of these scripts.
+#
+# If either module is not found, the test will be skipped.
+#
+# For use in tests that call perl scripts that require these modules.
+#
+# This file is intended to work on Unix. Windows may need different treatment.
+# Reasoning:
+#   - "shebangs" are not relevant on Windows, but need to be handled here.
+#   - Perl scripts cannot be made executable on Windows, interpreter must be 
+#     specified.
+#
+# Note that if there are multiple perl installations and not all have the
+# required modules, this check may fail even if the perl in path does have
+# the modules available. This may happen if the perl specified by the script's 
+# shebang (e.g. #!/usr/bin/perl) does not have these modules, and script is 
+# called without specifying the perl interpreter. However, this will be 
+# a correct result in cases where a test calls a script with a similar shebang.

+# We jump through some hoops since there is no direct way to check if an 
+# external command went OK or not from a mysql-test file:
+#
+#   - In theory, we could do as simple as "exec perl -MDBI -MDBD::mysql -e 1",
+#     however we cannot check the result (exit code) from within a test script. 
+#     Also, this may not yield the same result as other uses of perl due to the 
+#     shebang issue mentioned above.
+#   - Instead we use a separate helper perl script that checks for the modules.
+#   - If the modules are found, the perl script leaves a file which sets a
+#     variable that can be read by this file.
+#     If the modules are not found, the perl script does not set this variable,
+#     but leaves an empty file instead.
+#
+# This is done because there is apparently no direct way to transfer
+# information from perl to the test script itself.

+# This perl script checks for availability of the Perl modules DBI and
+# DBD::mysql using the "current" perl interpreter.
+#
+# Useful for test environment checking before testing executable perl scripts
+# in the MySQL Server distribution.
+#
+# NOTE: The "shebang" on the first line of this script should always point to
+#       /usr/bin/perl, so that we can use this script to check whether or not we
+#       support running perl scripts with such a shebang without specifying the
+#       perl interpreter on the command line. Such a script is mysqlhotcopy.
+#
+#       When run as "checkDBI_DBD-mysql.pl" the shebang line will be evaluated
+#       and used. When run as "perl checkDBI_DBD-mysql.pl" the shebang line is
+#       not used.
+#
+# NOTE: This script will create a temporary file in MTR's tmp dir.
+#       If modules are found, a mysql-test statement which sets a special
+#       variable is written to this file. If one of the modules is not found
+#       (or cannot be loaded), the file will remain empty.
+#       A test (or include file) which sources that file can then easily do
+#       an if-check on the special variable to determine success or failure.
+#
+#       Example:
+#
+#         --let $perlChecker= $MYSQLTEST_VARDIR/std_data/checkDBI_DBD-mysql.pl
+#         --let $resultFile= $MYSQL_TMP_DIR/dbidbd-mysql.txt
+#         --chmod 0755 $perlChecker
+#         --exec $perlChecker
+#         --source $resultFile
+#         if (!$dbidbd) {
+#             --skip Test needs Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql
+#         } 
+#
+#       The calling script is also responsible for cleaning up after use:
+#
+#         --remove_file $resultFile
+#
+# Windows notes: 
+#   - shebangs may work differently - call this script with "perl " in front.
+#
+# See mysql-test/include/have_dbi_dbd-mysql.inc for example use of this script.
+# This script should be executable for the user running MTR.
