buf_page_write_complete(): Reduce the buf_pool.mutex hold time,
and do not acquire buf_pool.flush_list_mutex at all.
Instead, mark blocks clean by setting oldest_modification to 1.
Dirty pages of temporary tables will be identified by the special
value 2 instead of the previous special value 1.
(By design of the ib_logfile0 format, actual LSN values smaller
than 2048 are not possible.)

buf_LRU_free_page(), buf_pool_t::get_oldest_modification()
and many other functions will remove the garbage (clean blocks)
from buf_pool.flush_list while holding buf_pool.flush_list_mutex.

buf_pool_t::n_flush_LRU, buf_pool_t::n_flush_list:
Replaced with non-atomic variables, protected by buf_pool.mutex,
to avoid unnecessary synchronization when modifying the counts.

export_vars: Remove unnecessary indirection for
innodb_pages_created, innodb_pages_read, innodb_pages_written.

In commit 7cffb5f6 (MDEV-23399)
the implementation of buf_flush_dirty_pages() was replaced with
a slow one, which would perform excessive scans of the
buf_pool.flush_list and make little progress.

buf_flush_list(), buf_flush_LRU(): Split from buf_flush_lists().
Vladislav Vaintroub noticed that we will not need to invoke
log_flush_task.wait() for the LRU eviction flushing.

buf_flush_list_space(): Replaces buf_flush_dirty_pages().
This is like buf_flush_list(), but operating on a single
tablespace at a time. Writes at most innodb_io_capacity
pages. Returns whether some of the tablespace might remain
in the buffer pool.

Vladislav Vaintroub suggested that invoking log_flush_up_to()
for every page could perform better than invoking a log write
between buf_pool.flush_list batches, like we started doing in
commit 3a9a3be1 (MDEV-23855).
This could depend on the sequence in which pages are being
modified. The buf_pool.flush_list is ordered by
oldest_modification, while the FIL_PAGE_LSN of the pages is
theoretically independent of that. In the pathological case,
we will wait for a log write before writing each individual page.

It turns out that we can defer the call to log_flush_up_to()
until just before submitting the page write. If the doublewrite
buffer is being used, we can submit a write batch of "future" pages
to the doublewrite buffer, and only wait for the log write right
before we are writing an already doublewritten page.
The next doublewrite batch will not be initiated before the last
page write from the current batch has completed.

When a future version introduces asynchronous writes if the log,
we could initiate a write at the start of a flushing batch, to
reduce waiting further.

It turns out that we had some unnecessary waits for no outstanding
write requests to exist. They were basically working around a
bug that was fixed in MDEV-25953.

On write completion callback, blocks will be marked clean.
So, it is sufficient to consult buf_pool.flush_list to determine
which writes have not been completed yet.

On FLUSH TABLES...FOR EXPORT we must still wait for all pending
asynchronous writes to complete, because buf_flush_file_space()
would merely guarantee that writes will have been initiated.

Cherry-picking only test case.

trx_undo_mem_create_at_db_start(): Relax too strict upgrade checks
that were introduced in
commit e46f76c9 (MDEV-15912).
On commit, pages will typically be set to TRX_UNDO_CACHED state.
Having the type TRX_UNDO_INSERT in such pages is common and
unproblematic; the type would be reset in trx_undo_reuse_cached().

trx_rseg_array_init(): On failure, clean up the rollback segments
that were initialized so far, to avoid an assertion failure later
during shutdown.

init_crypt_key(): On failure, set info->key_version to
ENCRYPTION_KEY_VERSION_INVALID.

log_crypt_101_read_block(): Refuse to attempt decryption if
info->key_version is ENCRYPTION_KEY_VERSION_INVALID.

This bug affected queries with views / derived_tables / CTEs whose
specifications were of the form
  (SELECT ... LIMIT <n>) ORDER BY ...
Units representing such specifications contains one SELECT_LEX structure
for (SELECT ... LIMIT <n>) and additionally SELECT_LEX structure for
fake_select_lex. This fact should have been taken into account in the
function mysql_derived_fill().

This patch has to be applied to 10.2 and 10.3 only.

trx_undo_report_row_operation(): Fix a race condition that was introduced
in commit f74023b9 (MDEV-15090).
We must not access undo_block after the page latch has been released
in mtr_t::commit(), because the block could be evicted or replaced.

In the merge commit d3e4fae7
a message about innodb_force_recovery was accidentally duplicated.

- Adding socket check for MariaDB/Mysql driver

mytop fall-back to DBD::mysql if DBD::MariaDB is not available

Apply #1546

Let us simply refuse an upgrade from earlier versions if the
upgrade procedure was not followed. This simplifies the purge,
commit, and rollback of transactions.

Before upgrading to MariaDB 10.3 or later, a clean shutdown
of the server (with innodb_fast_shutdown=1 or 0) is necessary,
to ensure that any incomplete transactions are rolled back.
The undo log format was changed in MDEV-12288. There is only
one persistent undo log for each transaction.

Builds on travis-ci.org ceased on 2021-06-15.

spider tests use

and *never* disable tests in suite.pm based on $::opt_big_test,
this will make the test skipped both as too big (for ./mtr)

release MDL on the trigger as early as possible, after everything that

Add fixed for tests mysqld--help,aix.rdiff and sysvars_server_notembedded,aix.rdiff

AIX couldn't compile in embedded mode so leaving sysvars_server_embedded
for later (if required).

In commit 1c35a3f6 a useless
computation that used the variable was removed.

Additional improvements aimed at improving operational
reliability of the SST scripts:

1) Script need to give rsync and stunnel a short time to
   terminate after "kill -9" before the first PID check
   using ps utility;
2) The temporary file used to create the binlog index could
   sometimes remain in the data directory if tar failed and
   then may be reused without being cleaned up (the next
   time when SST was run) - now it's fixed;
3) The temporary file used to build the binlog index is now
   created using mktemp and, if this variable is present in
   the configuration file, in tmpdir;
4) Checking the secret tag in SST via rsync is made faster
   and does not require creating a temporary file, which
   could remain in the data directory in case of failure;
5) Added "-F" option to grep to check the tag when using
   mariabackup/xtrabackup-v2 - to avoid possible collisions
   in case of special characters in the tag value (unlikely
   scenario, but the new check is more reliable).

This commit fixes a bug was originally discovered during the
galera_nbo_sst_slave mtr test for 10.6 branch. However it is
relevant for all versions and can lead to intermittent SST
crashes via rsync on very fast server restarts - when a new
SST process (for example, after starting a new server instance)
overlaps the old SST process started by the previous, already
terminated server. This overlap can result in the new rsync
being killed instead of the old rsync, or the pid file from
the new rsync being killed, which then lead to problems.
