branches/5.1: Make
SET SESSION TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED
a true replacement of SET GLOBAL INNODB_LOCKS_UNSAFE_FOR_BINLOG=1.
This fixes an error that was introduced in r370, causing
semi-consistent read not to not unlock rows in READ UNCOMMITTED mode.

branches/5.1: When converting a record to MySQL format, copy the default
column values for columns that are SQL NULL.  This addresses failures in
row-based replication (Bug #39648).

row_prebuilt_t: Add default_rec, for the default values of the columns in
MySQL format.

row_sel_store_mysql_rec(): Use prebuilt->default_rec instead of
padding columns.

It is a bug in unused code. If we don't calculate the hash value when
calculating the mutex number then two pages which map to same hash
value can get two different mutex numbers.

The config param innodb_thread_concurrency is dynamically set and is
read when a thread enters/exits innodb. If the value is changed between
the enter and exit time the behaviour becomes erratic.
The fix is not to use srv_thread_concurrency when exiting, instead use
the flag trx->declared_to_be_inside_innodb.

branches/5.1: row_mysql_store_col_in_innobase_format(): Correct a misleading
comment. In the UTF-8 encoding, ASCII takes 1 byte per character, while
the "latin1" character set (normally ISO-8859-1, but in MySQL it actually
refers to the Windows Code Page 1252 a.k.a. CP1252, WinLatin1)
takes 1 to 3 bytes (1 to 2 bytes for the ISO-8859-1 subset).

branches/5.1: dtype_get_sql_null_size(): return the correct storage
size of a SQL NULL column. (Bug #40369)

When MySQL Bug #20877 was fixed in r834, this function was
accidentally modified to return 0 or 1. Apparently, the only impact of
this bug is that fixed-length columns cannot be updated in-place from
or to SQL NULL, even in ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT.  After this fix,
fixed-length columns in ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT will have a constant
storage size as they should, no matter if NULL or non-NULL.  The bug
caused fixed-length NULL columns to occupy 1 byte.

Fix Bug#38189 innodb_stats_on_metadata missing

Make the variable innodb_stats_on_metadata visible to the users and
also settable at runtime. Previously it was only "visible" as a command
line startup option to mysqld.

Approved by:	Marko (https://svn.innodb.com/rb/r/36)

Bounds-checks and blocksize corrections were applied to user-input,
but constants in the server were trusted implicitly. If these values
did not actually meet the requirements, the user could not set change
a variable, then set it back to the (wonky) factory default or maximum
by explicitly specifying it (SET <var>=<value> vs SET <var>=DEFAULT).

Now checks also apply to the server's presets. Wonky values and maxima
get corrected at startup. Consequently all non-offsetted values the user
sees are valid, and users can set the variable to that exact value if
they so desire.

post push fix, added test found a valgrind warning

Adding comments to some of the high-level functions in replication.

When substituting system constant functions with a constant result
the server was not expecting that the function may return NULL.
Fixed by checking for NULL and returning Item_null (in the relevant
collation) if the result of the system constant function was NULL.

The special TRUNCATE TABLE (DDL) transaction wasn't being properly
rolled back if a error occurred during row by row deletion. The
error can be caused by a foreign key restriction imposed by InnoDB
SE and would cause the server to erroneously issue a implicit
commit.

The solution is to rollback the transaction if a truncation via row
by row deletion fails, otherwise commit. All effects of a TRUNCATE 
ABLE operation are rolled back if a row by row deletion fails.

Problem: when the server reads a log_event from file, it should read
the post-header lengths from the format_description_log_event. Some
event types which currently have post-header length 0 did not do this,
and instead had a hard-coded zero length for the post-header. That
means the current server version will not be able to read future
versions of these events.
Fix: make the reader functions read the post-header.

Passing dubious "year zero" in non-zero date (not "0000-00-00") could
lead to negative value for year internally, while variable was unsigned.
This led to Really Bad Things further down the line.

Now doing calculations with signed type for year internally.

The binlog_innodb test was sensitive to what tests ran before it.  Now run
FLUSH STATUS before performing operations that need to be checked.

sys_var_thd_ulong::update() was improperly casting an option value from
ulonglong to ulong before comparing it to the max allowed value.  On systems
where ulong and ulonglong are of different size, this caused values greater
than ULONG_MAX to wrap around (not be truncated to ULONG_MAX, which appears to
have been the intention of the original coder), and caused some checks to work
incorrectly.  This wasn't generally visible to the user, because later checks
would prevent the wrapped-around value from being used.  But it caused warning
messages to differ between 32- and 64-bit platforms.  Fix is to just remove the
cast.  Also added a DBUG_ASSERT to ensure that the value really is capped
properly before finally stuffing it into the ulong.

           locking type of temp table

The problem is that INSERT INTO .. SELECT FROM .. and CREATE
TABLE .. SELECT FROM a temporary table could inadvertently
overwrite the locking type of the temporary table. The lock
type of temporary tables should be a write lock by default.

The solution is to reset the lock type of temporary tables
back to its default value after they are used in a statement.
