to mysql-5.1-innodb plugin.

InnoDB Plugin 1.0.10 has been released with MySQL 5.1.49.

(no changes introduced by this merge)

was not complete. Bootstrap failed to pick up necessary files needed by test and hence
all tests failed.

Merge up to sunny.bains@oracle.com-20100625081841-ppulnkjk1qlazh82 .
There are 8 more changesets in mysql-5.1-innodb, but PB2 shows a
failure for a test added in one of them. If that is resolved quickly
then those 8 more changesets will be merged too.

POSIX requires that a signal handler defined with sigaction()
is not reset on delivering a signal unless SA_NODEFER or
SA_RESETHAND is set. It is therefore unnecessary to redefine
the handler on signal delivery on platforms where sigaction()
is used without those flags.

Bug #54311: Crash on CHECK PARTITION after concurrent LOAD DATA
and adaptive_hash_index=OFF

The problem is that QUICK_SELECT_DESC behaviour depends
on used_key_parts value which can be bigger than selected
best_key_parts value if an engine supports clustered key.
But used_key_parts is overwritten with best_key_parts
value that prevents from correct selection of index
access method. The fix is to preserve used_key_parts
value for further use in QUICK_SELECT_DESC.

(READ UNCOMMITTED access failure of off-page DYNAMIC or COMPRESSED columns).

Records that lack incompletely written externally stored columns may
be accessed by READ UNCOMMITTED transaction even without involving a
crash during an INSERT or UPDATE operation. I verified this as follows.

(1) added a delay after the mini-transaction for writing the clustered
index 'stub' record was committed (patch attached)
(2) started mysqld in gdb, setting breakpoints to the where the
assertions about READ UNCOMMITTED were added in the bug fix
(3) invoked ibtest3 --create-options=key_block_size=2
to create BLOBs in a COMPRESSED table
(4) invoked the following:
yes 'set transaction isolation level read uncommitted;
checksum table blobt3;select sleep(1);'|mysql -uroot test
(5) noted that one of the breakpoints was triggered
(return(NULL) in btr_rec_copy_externally_stored_field())

automatic reconnect

A client with automatic reconnect enabled will see the error
message "Lost connection to MySQL server during query" if the
connection is lost between mysql_stmt_prepare() and
mysql_stmt_execute(). The mysql_stmt_errno() number, however,
is 0 -- not the corresponding value 2013.

This patch checks for the case where the prepared statement
has been pruned due to a connection loss (i.e., stmt->mysql
has been set to NULL) during a call to cli_advanced_command(),
and avoids changing the last_errno to the result of the last
reconnect attempt.

dict_table_get_format(index->table)

The REDUNDANT and COMPACT formats store a local 768-byte prefix of
each externally stored column. No row_ext cache is needed, but we
initialized one nevertheless. When the BLOB pointer was zero, we would
ignore the locally stored prefix as well. This triggered an assertion
failure in row_undo_mod_upd_exist_sec().

row_build(): Allow ext==NULL when a REDUNDANT or COMPACT table
contains externally stored columns.

row_undo_search_clust_to_pcur(), row_upd_store_row(): Invoke
row_build() with ext==NULL on REDUNDANT and COMPACT tables.

columns

When the server crashes after a record stub has been inserted and
before all its off-page columns have been written, the record will
contain incomplete off-page columns after crash recovery. Such records
may only be accessed at the READ UNCOMMITTED isolation level or when
rolling back a recovered transaction in recv_recovery_rollback_active().
Skip these records at the READ UNCOMMITTED isolation level.

TODO: Add assertions for checking the above assumptions hold when an
incomplete BLOB is encountered.

btr_rec_copy_externally_stored_field(): Return NULL if the field is
incomplete.

row_prebuilt_t::templ_contains_blob: Clarify what "BLOB" means in this
context. Hint: MySQL BLOBs are not the same as InnoDB BLOBs.

row_sel_store_mysql_rec(): Return FALSE if not all columns could be
retrieved. Previously this function always returned TRUE.  Assert that
the record is not delete-marked.

row_sel_push_cache_row_for_mysql(): Return FALSE if not all columns
could be retrieved.

row_search_for_mysql(): Skip records containing incomplete off-page
columns. Assert that the transaction isolation level is READ
UNCOMMITTED.

The default value of the myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size could be
higher than the maximum accepted value, leading to warnings upon
the server start.

The solution is to simply set the value to the maximum value in a
32-bit built (2147483647, one less than the current). This should
be harmless as the option is currently unused in 5.1.
