      Bug#24924: shared-memory-base-name that is too long causes buffer overflow · 3c1be000
      tnurnberg@sin.intern.azundris.com authored
      long shared-memory-base-names could overflow a static internal buffer
      and thus crash mysqld and various clients.  change both to dynamic
      buffers, show everything but overflowing those buffers still works.
      
      The test case for this would pretty much amount to
      mysqld --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX --shared-memory=1 &
      mysqladmin --no-defaults --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX shutdown
      
      Unfortunately, we can't just use an .opt file for the
      server. The .opt file is used at start-up, before any
      include in the actual test can tell mysqltest to skip
      this one on non-Windows. As a result, such a test would
      break on unices.
      
      Fixing mysql-test-run.pl to export full path for master
      and slave would enable us to start a server from within
      the test which is ugly and, what's more, doesn't work as
      the server blocks (mysqltest offers no fire-and-forget
      fork-and-exec), and mysqladmin never gets run.
      
      Making the test rpl_windows_shm or some such so we can
      is beyond ugly. As is introducing another file-name based
      special case (run "win*.test" only when on Windows). As is
      (yuck) coding half the test into mtr (as in, having it
      hand out a customized environment conductive to the shm-
      thing on Win only).
      
      Situation is exacerbated by the fact that .sh is not
      necessary run as expected on Win.
      
      In short, it's just not worth it. No test-case until we
      have a new-and-improved test framework.
