The fix in revision id marko.makela@oracle.com-20110815091143-h3zbvm0pv8ni3qql
introduced a false UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG alarm. Relax the assertion.

On Fedora, certain accesses to "/var/lib/mysql/HOSTNAME.err" were blocked
by SELinux policy, this made the server start fail with the message
    Manager of pid-file quit without updating file
Calling "/sbin/restorecon -R /var/lib/mysql" fixes this.

                      CRASHES SERVER

Flushing of MERGE table or one of its child tables, which was
locked by flushing thread using LOCK TABLES, might have caused
crashes or assertion failures if the thread failed to reopen
child or parent table.
Particularly, this might have happened when another connection
killed this FLUSH TABLE statement/connection.
Also this problem might have occurred when we failed to reopen
MERGE table or one of its children when executing DDL statement
under LOCK TABLES.

The problem was caused by the fact that reopen_tables() might
have failed to reopen child table but still tried to reopen,
reattach children for and re-lock its parent. Vice versa it
might have failed to reopen parent but kept references from
children to parent around. Since reopen_tables() closes table
it has failed to reopen and therefore frees all associated
memory such dangling references led to crashes when followed.

This patch solves this problem by ensuring that we always close
parent table and all its children if we fail to reopen this
table or one of its children. Same happens if we fail to reattach
children to parent.

Affects 5.1 only.

discarded in buf_page_create()

This bug turned out to be a false alarm, a bug in the UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG
diagnostic code. Because of this, the patch was not backported to the
built-in InnoDB in MySQL 5.1. Furthermore, there is no test case for
InnoDB Plugin in MySQL 5.1, because the delete buffering in MySQL 5.5
makes triggering the failure much easier.

When a freed page for which there exist orphaned buffered changes is
allocated and reused for something else, buf_page_create() will discard
the buffered changes by invoking ibuf_merge_or_delete_for_page().
This would violate the InnoDB latching order.

Tweak the latching order as follows. Move SYNC_IBUF_MUTEX below
SYNC_FSP_PAGE, where it logically belongs, and assign new latching
levels for the ibuf->index->lock and the insert buffer B-tree pages:

#define SYNC_IBUF_MUTEX		370	/* ibuf_mutex */
#define SYNC_IBUF_INDEX_TREE	360
#define SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE_NEW	359
#define SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE	358

btr_block_get(), btr_page_get(): In UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG, add the parameter
"index" for determining the appropriate latching order
(SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE or SYNC_TREE_NODE).

btr_page_alloc_for_ibuf(), btr_create(): Use SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE_NEW
instead of SYNC_TREE_NODE_NEW for insert buffer pages.

btr_cur_search_to_nth_level(), btr_pcur_restore_position_func(): Use
SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE instead of SYNC_TREE_NODE for insert buffer pages.

btr_search_guess_on_hash(): Assert that the index is not an insert buffer tree.

dict_index_add_to_cache(): Use SYNC_IBUF_INDEX_TREE for the insert
buffer tree (ibuf->index->lock).

ibuf0ibuf.c: Use SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE or SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE_NEW for
all B-tree pages.

ibuf_merge_or_delete_for_page(): Assert that the user page is
BUF_IO_READ fixed. Only in this way it is OK to latch it as
SYNC_IBUF_TREE_NODE instead of the proper SYNC_TREE_NODE (which would
violate the changed latching order).

sync_thread_add_level(): Remove the special tweak for
SYNC_IBUF_MUTEX. Add rules for the added latching levels.

row_sel_field_store_in_mysql_format(): Do not pad the unused part of
the buffer reserved for a True VARCHAR column (introduced in 5.0.3).
Add Valgrind instrumentation ensuring that the unused part will be
flagged uninitialized.

row_sel_copy_cached_field_for_mysql(): New function: Copy a field
that is in the MySQL row format, not copying the unused tail of
VARCHAR columns.

row_sel_pop_cached_row_for_mysql(): Invoke
row_sel_copy_cached_field_for_mysql() for copying fields.
When the row is long, copy it field-by-field.

for compressed InnoDB tables

ha_innodb::info_low(): For calculating data_length or index_length,
use the compressed page size for compressed tables instead of UNIV_PAGE_SIZE.

rb:714 approved by Sunny Bains

There is an optimization of DISTINCT in JOIN::optimize()
which depends on THD::used_tables value. Each SELECT statement
inside SP resets used_tables value(see mysql_select()) and it
leads to wrong result. The fix is to replace THD::used_tables
with LEX::used_tables.

The problem is that TIME_FUZZY_DATE is explicitly used for get_arg0_date()
function in Item_date_typecast::get_date method. The fix is to use real
fuzzy_date value.

#   Fix for Bug 57094 (Copyright notice incorrect?).
#   
#   The fix is to:
#     - introduce ORACLE_WELCOME_COPYRIGHT_NOTICE define to have a single place
#       to specify copyright notice;
#     - replace custom copyright notices with ORACLE_WELCOME_COPYRIGHT_NOTICE
#       in programs.

The title of the bug is a little confusing. The actual fix is to
reintroduce random readahead inside InnoDB with a dynamic, global
switch innodb_random_read_ahead [default = off].

message:
  A patch for Bug#59060 (Valgrind warning in Protocol_text::store()).
  
  We should not assume to have zero-terminated strings.

HA_ERR was returning 0 (null string) when no error happened 
(error=0). Since HA_ERR is used in DBUG_PRINT, regardless there 
was an error or not, the server could crash in solaris debug
builds.

We fix this by:

  - deploying an assertion that ensures that the function 
    is not called when no error has happened;
  - making sure that HA_ERR is only called when an error 
    happened;
  - making HA_ERR return "No Error", instead of 0, for 
    non-debug builds if it is called when no error happened.

This will make HA_ERR return values to work with DBUG_PRINT on
solaris debug builds.

                  
The server crashes if it processes table map events that are
corrupted, especially if they map different tables to the same
identifier. This could happen, for instance, due to BUG 56226.
                  
We fix this by checking whether the table map has already been
mapped before actually applying the event. If it has been mapped
with different settings an error is raised and the slave SQL
thread stops. If it has been mapped with same settings the event
is skipped. If the table is set to be ignored by the filtering
rules, there is no change in behavior: the event is skipped and
ids are not checked.

When CREATE TABLE wasn't given ENGINE=... it would determine
the default ENGINE at parse-time rather than at execution
time, leading to incorrect behaviour (namely, later changes
to the default engine being ignore) when calling CREATE TABLE
from a stored procedure.

We now defer working out the default engine till execution of
CREATE TABLE.

innochecksum not built for --with-plugin-innodb_plugin --without-plugin-innobase

In 5.1, we can have the traditional "innobase" code
(built-in) or the new version "innodb" (plugin).
The help tool "innochecksum" is useful for both,
but its generation was coupled to "innobase" only.

Fix this by treating both "innobase" and "innodb"
equivalent in the configure phase,
this affects both "innochecksum" and the InnoDB documentation.

This patch was proposed by Mark Callaghan.

bug.  It added this assert;
    ut_ad(ind_field->prefix_len);
before a section of code that assumes there is a prefix_len.  

The patch replaced code that explicitly avoided this with a check for
prefix_len.  It turns out that the purge thread can get to that assert
without a prefix_len because it does not use a row_ext_t* .
When UNIV_DEBUG is not defined, the affect of this is that the purge thread
sets the dfield->len to zero and then cannot find the entry in the index to
purge.  So secondary index entries remain unpurged.

This patch does not do the assert.  Instead, it uses
    'if (ind_field->prefix_len) {...}'
around the section of code that assumes a prefix_len.  This is the way the
patch I provided to Marko did it.

The test case is simply modified to do a sleep(10) in order to give the
purge thread a chance to run. Without the code change to row0row.c, this
modified testcase will assert if InnoDB was compiled with UNIV_DEBUG.
I tried to sleep(5), but it did not always assert.

Let the creation of the "test" database happen only during a new
installation, not in an RPM upgrade.
