Suprisingly, a Slave_log_event would show up in the binary
log. This event is never used and should not appear in the
logs. As such, when the slave (or the mysqlbinlog tool) reads the
event, it will hit an invalid pointer (reference to the
descriptor event when deserializing the Slave_log_event was
purposodely set to NULL).
      
The presence of the Slave_log_event denotes a corrupted log, but
we cannot tell how the log got corrupted in the first
place. However, we can make the server cope with such events when
it reads them - in case of log corruption - and fail gracefully.
     
This patch makes the server/mysqlbinlog to report that it has
found an invalid log event when Slave_log_event is read.

LOAD DATA into partitioned MyISAM table

Problem was that both partitioning and myisam
used the same table_share->mutex for different protections
(auto inc and repair).

Solved by adding a specific mutex for the partitioning
auto_increment.

Also adding destroying the ha_data structure in
free_table_share (which is to be propagated
into 5.5).

This is a 5.1 ONLY patch, already fixed in 5.5+.

Added sanity check, similar to the one preventing send without reap

Bug#57113: ha_partition::extra(ha_extra_function):
            Assertion `m_extra_cache' failed

Fix for bug#55458 included DBUG_ASSERTS causing
debug builds of the server to crash on
another multi-table update.

Removed the asserts since they where wrong.
(updated after testing the patch in 5.5).

mysql-test/r/partition.result:
  updated result
mysql-test/t/partition.test:
  Added test for bug#57113
sql/ha_partition.cc:
  Removed the assert for m_extra_cache when
  ::extra(HA_PREPARE_FOR_UPDATE) was called.

This is a simple optimization issue. All stats are related to only indexed
columns, index size or number of rows in the whole table. UPDATEs that touch
only non-indexed columns cannot affect stats and we can avoid calling the
function row_update_statistics_if_needed() which may result in unnecessary I/O.

Trying to run perl fails, just like it does when perl is started but fails
Trap the case that perl was not found/could not be started, and skip test
Also force a restart of servers since test may already have done something
mtr now also appends path of current perl to PATH to aid mysqltest

TYPE __sync_lock_test_and_set (TYPE *ptr, TYPE value, ...)

it is not documented what happens if the two arguments are of different
type like it was before: the first one was lock_word_t (byte) and the
second one was 1 or 0 (int).

This happens when creating new tmpdir due to too long socket path
Don't delete it if --start-and-exit, but warn user to do it.

InnoDB Plugin 1.0.12 has been released with MySQL 5.1.51.

Use UNINIT_VAR workaround instead of LINT_INIT. The former can
also be used to silence false-positives in non-debug builds as
it actually does not cause new code to be generated.

Temporarily disable strict aliasing warnings in order to get
wider coverage for optimized builds. Once the violations are
fixed and false-positives silenced, this flag should be removed.

sql/sql_cache.cc:
  Added include of send_data_in_chunks() definiton when macros EMBEDDED_LIBRARY is on.

Fixed a number of memory leaks discovered by valgrind.

dbug/dbug.c:
  This is actually an addendum to the fix for bug #52629:
  
  - there is no point in limiting the fix to just global
  variables, session ones are also affected.
  - zero all fields when allocating a new 'state' structure so
  that FreeState() does not deal with unitialized data later.
  - add a check for a NULL pointer in DBUGCloseFile()
mysql-test/r/partition_error.result:
  Added a test case for bug #56709.
mysql-test/r/variables_debug.result:
  Added a test case for bug #56709.
mysql-test/t/partition_error.test:
  Added a test case for bug #56709.
mysql-test/t/variables_debug.test:
  Added a test case for bug #56709.
sql/item_timefunc.cc:
  There is no point in declaring 'value' as a member of
  Item_extract and dynamically allocating memory for it in
  Item_extract::fix_length_and_dec(), since this string is only
  used as a temporary storage in Item_extract::val_int().
sql/item_timefunc.h:
  Removed 'value' from the Item_extract class definition.
sql/sql_load.cc:
  - we may need to deallocate 'buffer' even when 'error' is
    non-zero in some cases, since 'error' is public, and there is
    external code modifying it.
  - assign NULL to buffer when deallocating it so that we don't
    do it twice in the destructor
  - there is no point in changing 'error' in the destructor.

sql/log.cc:
  reopen_fstreams modified: fixed error in processing of
  stdout/stderr when run mysqld as Windows service.

Added --enable-connect-log, somewhet similar to --enable-query-log
If query log is disabled, disable connect log too
Also some related cleanup in mysqltest.test: removing duplicate test loop
