BUG#23427 incompatible ABI change in 5.0.26?
   - Use the icheck tool if avaliable and compare the current mysql.h to a version
controlled reference file 


BitKeeper/etc/ignore:
  Added include/check_abi include/mysql_h.ic to the ignore list
configure.in:
  Look for icheck in configure
include/Makefile.am:
  Add rule to build mysql_h.ic if icheck is avaliable
  Add rule to compare mysql_h.ic to the version
  controlled reference file mysql_h_abi.ic
include/mysql.h:
  Add comment about taking care when editing mysql.h
  Add example how to add reserved fiels in the structs to
  allow for features to be added without breaking ABI
include/mysql_h_abi.ic:
  Add new file describing the libmysqlclient ABI used as a reference to detect ABI breakage

Revert 1 June change enough to restore ABI compatibility with previous
versions.


include/mysql.h:
  Revert patch that breaks ABI compatibility
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
  Remove useless assignment.

	InterfaceError on connect

Removed the bool flag from the st_mysql_options struct, since it adds 
another word in size to the memory size and shifts member memory locations
down, both of which break binary-interface compatibility.

Instead, use a flag, 2**30, in the client_options bit-field to represent
that the client should check the SSL certificate of the server.


include/mysql.h:
  Do not change the struct size.
include/mysql_com.h:
  Add a new bit-flag for client verifying server SSL certificate.
  
  Emphasize that we're not stepping on anyone else's bit/toes.
sql-common/client.c:
  Set and read the bit-field for client-side SSL-cert checking of the server.

when calling a SP from C API"

The bug was caused by lack of checks for misuse in mysql_real_query. 
A stored procedure always returns at least one result, which is the 
status of execution of the procedure itself.
This result, or so-called OK packet, is similar to a result
returned by INSERT/UPDATE/CREATE operations: it contains the overall
status of execution, the number of affected rows and the number of
warnings. The client test program attached to the bug did not read this 
result and ivnoked the next query. In turn, libmysql had no check for 
such scenario and mysql_real_query was simply trying to send that query 
without reading the pending response, thus messing up the communication
protocol.

The fix is to return an error from mysql_real_query when it's called
prior to retrieval of all pending results.


client/mysqlbinlog.cc:
  net_safe_read -> cli_safe_read
include/mysql.h:
  Remove a private function from the public header.
include/mysql_com.h:
  Remove a define that is never used.
include/sql_common.h:
  Add a declaration for cli_safe_read - a function that reads one packet
  from the server.
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  net_safe_read -> cli_safe_read
  Return CR_COMMANDS_OUT_OF_SYNC on attempt to execute a statement
  using a connection which has pending result sets.
sql-common/client.c:
  Actual fix for Bug#15752: if the server has pending result sets for
  the client, return CR_COMMANDS_OUT_OF_SYNC on attempt to execute
  another query. Similarly to the behaviour of mysql_use_result(),
  multiple result sets block the connection and must be fetched
  before it can be used for another query.
  This uncovered an error in the protocol: the server doesn't drop
  SERVER_MORE_RESULTS_EXISTS status flag upon an error, so in case of
  a multi-query like SELECT 1; SELECT syntax_error; SELECT 2; 
  the client has no way to know that the server won't ever come to 
  execution of the third query and won't return any result sets for it.
  For now, fix it in cli_safe_read, as a proper fix requires extension
  of the client-server protocol.
sql/protocol.cc:
  Remove a name that is never used.
sql/slave.cc:
  net_safe_read -> cli_safe_read
tests/mysql_client_test.c:
  Make 'query' a local variable to avoid name clash.
  Add a test case for Bug#15752 "Lost connection to MySQL server when
  calling an SP from C API"

There actually was 3 different problems -
hash_user_connections wasn't cleaned
one strdupped database name wasn't freed
and stmt->mem_root wasn't cleaned as it was
replased with mysql->field_alloc for result
For the last one - i made the library using stmt's
fields to store result if it's the case.


include/mysql.h:
  statement pointer added to the advanced_command to be checked in
  embedded server
include/sql_common.h:
  stmt added to the cli_advanced_command interface
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  stmt pointer now sent to advanced_command
libmysqld/embedded_priv.h:
  it's enough to send database name to check_embedded_connection
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
  Now we store result directly in the MYSQL_STMT structure to
  avoid extra copying
libmysqld/libmysqld.c:
  it's enough to only send database pointer to check_embedded_connection
sql-common/client.c:
  stmt fake attribute added to cli_advanced_command
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  hash_user_connections isn't used if no access checks compiled

 - Add function mysql_get_ssl_cipher
 - Use function mysql_get_ssl_cipher from mysql

 - Add new function 'ssl_verify_server_cert' which is used if we are 
   connecting to the server with SSL. It will compare the hostname in 
   the server's cert against the hostname that we used when connecting 
   to the server. Will reject the connection if hostname does not match.
 - Add new option "OPT_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT" to be passed to mysql_options
   which will turn on checking of servers cert.
 - Add new argument "ssl-verify-server-cert" to all mysql* clients which 
   will activate the above option.
 - Generate a new server cert with 1024 bits that has "localhost" as the server name.


SSL/server-cert.pem:
  Generate a new server cert that has "localhost" as CN, so that we can test to verify the hostname we connected against with the hostname in the cert
client/client_priv.h:
  Add OPT_SSL_VERIFY_CERT
client/mysql.cc:
  Pass the variable "opt_ssl_verify_server_cert" to the mysql_options function. It's processed/included by include/sslopt*.h files
client/mysqladmin.cc:
  Pass the variable "opt_ssl_verify_server_cert" to the mysql_options function. It's processed/included by include/sslopt*.h files
client/mysqldump.c:
  Pass the variable "opt_ssl_verify_server_cert" to the mysql_options function. It's processed/included by include/sslopt*.h files
client/mysqlimport.c:
  Pass the variable "opt_ssl_verify_server_cert" to the mysql_options function. It's processed/included by include/sslopt*.h files
client/mysqlshow.c:
  Pass the variable "opt_ssl_verify_server_cert" to the mysql_options function. It's processed/included by include/sslopt*.h files
client/mysqltest.c:
  Always set opt_ssl_verify_server_cert on in mysqltest if we are using SSL
include/mysql.h:
  Add variable ssl_verify_cerver_cert
include/sslopt-longopts.h:
  Add ssl-verify-server-cert options to all clients.
include/sslopt-vars.h:
  Add opt_ssl_varify_server_cert to all clients.
sql-common/client.c:
  Add ssl_vertify_server_cert function which is executed if user has set the option ssl_verify_cerver_cert
vio/viosslfactories.c:
  Ask the SSL library to verify servers cert by setting the SSL_VERIFY_PEER flag

Add new function mysql_get_ssl_cipher to libmysl and use it from client to avoid dependency on SSL libs from mysql client.


include/mysql.h:
  Add new function mysql_get_ssl_cipher
sql-common/client.c:
  Add new function mysql_get_ssl_cipher, will return the cipher used for the current connection to the server.

This fixes the problem if someone is using struct MYSQL as part of another structure together with a shared
library

mysql_options(..., MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT, ...). (Bug #11787)


client/mysqltest.c:
  Use mysql_options(..., MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT, ...) to change reconnect
include/mysql.h:
  Add MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT option
sql-common/client.c:
  Allow changing reconnect using MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT.

- check on the client the unsupported feature and return 
an error message if it's been requested.
Additionally added API support for STMT_ATTR_PREFETCH_ROWS.
Post-review fixes.


include/errmsg.h:
  Add a new error code for "Not implemented" client-side error message.
include/mysql.h:
  Add a statement attribute STMT_ATTR_PREFETCH_ROWS - unsigned long
  number of rows to fetch per one COM_FETCH command, used when there
  is a read-only cursor.
  Note, that we don't break compatibility by adding this new member
  because MYSQL_STMT is always allocated inside the client library by
  mysql_stmt_init.
libmysql/errmsg.c:
  Text for the error message CR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  Implement support for STMT_ATTR_PREFETCH_ROWS
  Return an error message on attempt to set an attribute of a prepared
  statement which is not implemented yet. We probably should be doing
  it in the server: currently the server just ignores unknown attributes.
tests/mysql_client_test.c:
  A test case for Bug#9643 "CURSOR_TYPE_SCROLLABLE dos not work"
  - check that an error message is returned for CURSOR_TYPE_SCROLLABLE.
  Additionally, check setting of STMT_ATTR_PREFETCH_ROWS.

 - Removed use of mysql->extra_info
 - Removed unused function send_records_num


VC++Files/winmysqladmin/mysql.h:
  Comment extra_info as not used anymore
client/mysqlshow.c:
  Remove use of extra info. Instead read number of records in table using SELECT COUNT(*)
include/mysql.h:
  Comment extra_info as not used anymore
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
  Removed unused function send_records_num
sql-common/client.c:
  Remove use of extra_info since number of records is not sent in the protocol anymore
sql/protocol.cc:
  Removed unused function send_records_num
sql/protocol.h:
  Removed unused function send_records_num

This is the first changeset of suggested changes recommended in Kostja's 
review of my patch, 1.1846, which includes only functionality changes. 
Style changes/Documentation patch to follow.


include/mysql.h:
  removed declaration of cli_fetch_lengths per Kostja's suggestion
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  moved mysql_fetch_lengths to client.c (for server to access) per Kostja's
  suggestion
sql-common/client.c:
  added back 'static' to function definition, added mysql_fetch_lengths
sql/ha_federated.cc:
  changed to use defines as opposed to hardcoded values
sql/ha_federated.h:
  took out duplicate table_flag, fixed a resolve mistake

Testing on hp3750 shows these fixes fix the compile problems on HPUX, but I have 
a problem where when I run the tests, the test shows that the tables default to MyISAM!


include/mysql.h:
  HPUX's compiler does not like 'ulong' - the compile fails due to this.
sql/ha_federated.h:
  Serg's recommendation to fix bug #8599 (which is a good fix since it's obviously 
  from when I added the method via cut and paste ;). Also caught some comment style issues.

This patch contains all that my previous patch (1.1814) contained, with the addition of using cli_fetch_lengths for
handling binary data (Bar noted this on the review of 1.1814, Guilhem suggested using cli_fetch_lenghts by 
making available via removal of static in method definition and declaration in mysql.h, but
Konstantin had some reservations, but he said to commit the patch using this anyway,
and I suppose this can be discussed. I abandoned 1.1814 because Monty made a couple
fixes to my code as well as formatting changes, and I thought it would just be easier
to hand-edit my changes into a fresh clone and then make a patch. 

The reason for using cli_fetch_lengths is so that I can correctly get the length of
the field I am setting into the field. I was previously using 'strlen' but Bar pointed out this
won't correctly get the length of binary data and is also less effecient. Upon testing,
it was in fact verified that binary data in a blob table was being inserted correctly,
but not being retrieved correctly, all due to not having the correct value for the
field:

(*field)->store(row[x], strlen(row[x]), &my_charset_bin);

was changed to:

(*field)->store(row[x], lengths[x], &my_charset_bin);

lengths being a unsigned long pointer to the values of the field lengths from a 
MYSQL_ROW.

Since the server doesn't have the function "mysql_fetch_lengths" available, I tried 
to use "result->lengths", but this isn't set, so I finally successfully used 
cli_fetch_lenghts, which does give the correct lengths, and now the binary data gets
retrieved correctly.

I've also run the code through indent-ex and am using Brian's vimrc to ensure correct formatting!

This code passes the entire test suite, without any errors or warning on both my 
workstation and build.mysql.com


include/mysql.h:
  added cli_fetch_lengths to mysql.h in order to use this function in the federated handler
mysql-test/r/federated.result:
  - Moved countries to be created and inserted prior to federated test table
  - Added a test of inserting binary values into a blob table
mysql-test/t/federated.test:
  - Moved order of countries table creation to prior to test table creation
  - Test insertion of binary values in a blob table
sql-common/client.c:
  removed 'static' to allow cli_fetch_lengths to be used in the federated handler
sql/ha_federated.cc:
  1. share->scheme that was created in parse_url was not being freed
  2. HASH federated_open_tables was being deleted, but not freed
  3. 'result' from mysql_store_result was not being free in several instances
  4. Fixed the problem where a table scan was being performed after
  index_read_idx, which didn't cause a problem because the result set from
  idx_read_idx was not being freed, but once the result set was properly freed,
  it broke update_row. Now, I'm using the bool 'scan' to determine if I need to
  perform a table scan, which it magically is false when the query is an update
  with an index.
  5. Changed all stings containing the query to perform in mysql_real_query
  calls from string.c_ptr_quick() to string.ptr() per Monty's suggestion
  (better performance)
  6. Fixed various cast/type/truth compile warnings.
  7. Removed 'load_conn_info' and just let 'parse_url' handle it.
  8. Added the use of cli_fetch_lengths, needed to fix binary values being retrieved 
  from the database in rnd_next/convert_row_to_internal_format
  9. Formatting changes by using indent-ex!
sql/ha_federated.h:
  added scan flag, setting defaults for result and scan_flag

Proposal to fix this problem: when using libmysqlclient, you must call mysql_server_end() to nicely free memory at the end
of your program; it however sounds weird to call a function named *SERVER_end* when you're the CLIENT (you're not ending the server, you're ending
your ability to talk to servers). So here I add two defines which should be more generic names. Our manual
mentions these functions only for libmysqld API so needs some fixing, and then we can close BUG#8099 and BUG#6149.


include/mysql.h:
  Creating synonyms (defines): mysql_library_init for mysql_server_init, mysql_library_end for mysql_server_end;
  these new names are more generic, so suitable when using libmysqlclient as well as libmysqld.

So here I add two defines which should be more generic names. This was longly discussed with Konstantin, Serg, Brian. The problem started from
a post on valgrind-users list: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=5778035&forum_id=32038 ; our manual mentions these functions
only for libmysqld API so needs some fixing, and then we can close BUG#8099 and BUG#6149.


include/mysql.h:
  Creating synonyms (defines): mysql_library_init for mysql_server_init, mysql_library_end for mysql_server_end;
  these new names are more generic, so suitable when using libmysqlclient as well as libmysqld.c

include/mysql.h:
  Adding an option for data truncations feature.
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  No 'smart' behaviour now for data truncations: they are always
  reported, unless switched off with 
  mysql_options(mysql, MYSQL_REPORT_DATA_TRUNCATION, (my_bool*) &(option=1));
sql-common/client.c:
  Add support for report-data-truncation variable in my.cnf
tests/client_test.c:
  A test for MYSQL_REPORT_DATA_TRUNCATION option.

fixes. Still to do: 
-  deploy my_strtoll10 in limbysql.c
- add mysql_options option to switch MYSQL_DATA_TRUNCATED on and off.


include/my_time.h:
  More calls are shared between client and server (libmysql now performs
  more intelligent date->number and number->date conversions).
  TODO: rename those which are not starting with 'my_'
include/mysql.h:
  MYSQL_BIND:
  - more elaborated comment
  - some of the ex-private members were given public names - 
    it's sometimes convenient to set bind->error to &bind->error_value.
    However Monty questions the idea, so it should be given
    more thought in future.
  - added new members to support data truncation.
  Added new return value of mysql_stmt_fetch, MYSQL_DATA_TRUNCATED.
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  - added support for data truncation during fetch
  - implementation for is_binary_compatible: now conversion functions
    are used less frequently
  - we now use number_to_datetime and TIME_to_ulonglong for date->number and
    number->date conversions
sql-common/my_time.c:
  - added implementation of date->number and number->date calls shared 
    between client and server (moved from time.cc).

  - fixed my_process_stmt_result to set STMT_ATTR_UPDATE_MAX_LENGTH (tables
    are now printed out prettier).

  Adding a prototype for the new function.


include/mysql.h:
  Adding a prototype for the new function.

having approval for it since 4.1.4, I also have some assurance that
very few people actually used this: to enable these calls a user
had to #define HAVE_DEPRECATED_411_API and recompile the client library.

- client side part is simple and may be considered stable
- server side part now just joggles with THD state to save execution
  state and has no additional locking wisdom.
  Lot's of it are to be rewritten.


include/mysql.h:
  Cursor patch to push into the main tree, client library part (considered 
  stable):
  - new statement attribute STMT_ATTR_CURSOR_TYPE
  - MYSQL_STMT::flags to store statement cursor type
  - MYSQL_STMT::server_status to store server status (i. e. if the server
  was able to open a cursor for this query).
include/mysql_com.h:
  Cursor patch to push into the main tree, client library part (considered 
  stable):
  - new COMmand, COM_FETCH, to fetch K rows from read-only cursor.
    By design should support scrollable cursors as well.
  - a few new server statuses:
    SERVER_STATUS_CURSOR_EXISTS is sent by server in reply to COM_EXECUTE,
    when cursor was successfully opened for this query
    SERVER_STATUS_LAST_ROW_SENT is sent along with the last row to prevent one
    more round trip just for finding out that all rows were fetched from 
    this cursor (this is server mem savier also).
  - and finally, all possible values of STMT_ATTR_CURSOR_TYPE, 
    while now we support only CURSORT_TYPE_NO_CURSOR and 
    CURSOR_TYPE_READ_ONLY
libmysql/libmysql.c:
  Cursor patch to push into the main tree, client library part (considered 
  stable):
  - simple additions to mysql_stmt_fetch implementation to read data 
    from an opened cursor: we can read up to iteration count rows per
    one request; read rows are buffered in the same way as rows of
    mysql_stmt_store_result.
  - now send stmt->flags to server to let him now if we wish to have 
    a cursor for this statement.
  - support for setting/getting statement cursor type.
libmysqld/examples/Makefile.am:
  Testing cursors was originally implemented in C++. Now when these tests
  go into client_test, it's time to convert it to C++ as well.
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/ha_innodb.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  - cursors support: declaration for server-side handler of COM_FETCH
sql/protocol.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
  - we can't anymore assert that field_types[field_pos] is sensible:
    if we have COM_EXCUTE(stmt1), COM_EXECUTE(stmt2), COM_FETCH(stmt1)
    field_types[field_pos] will point to fields of stmt2.
sql/protocol.h:
  - cleanup: send_fields flag_s_ are now named.

  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/sql_help.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Server side support for cursors:
  - handle COM_FETCH
  - enforce assumption that whenever we free thd->free_list, 
    we reset it to zero. This way it's much easier to handle free_list
    in prepared statements implementation.
sql/sql_prepare.cc:
  Server side support for cursors:
  - implementation of mysql_stmt_fetch (fetch some rows from open cursor).
  - management of cursors memory is quite tricky now.
  - execute_stmt can't be reused anymore in mysql_stmt_execute and 
    mysql_sql_stmt_execute
sql/sql_repl.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/sql_select.cc:
  Server side support for cursors:
  - implementation of Cursor::open, Cursor::fetch (buggy when it comes to
    non-equi joins), cursor cleanups.
  - -4 -3 -0 constants indicating return value of sub_select and end_send are
    to be renamed to something more readable:
    it turned out to be not so simple, so it should come with the other patch.
sql/sql_select.h:
  Server side support for cursors:
  - declaration of Cursor class.
  - JOIN::fetch_limit contains runtime value of rows fetched via cursor.
sql/sql_show.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/sql_table.cc:
  - cleanup: send_fields flags are now named.
sql/sql_union.cc:
  - if there was a cursor, don't cleanup unit: we'll need it to fetch
    the rest of the rows.
tests/Makefile.am:
  Now client_test is in C++.
tests/client_test.cc:
  A few elementary tests for cursors.
BitKeeper/etc/ignore:
  Added libmysqld/examples/client_test.cc to the ignore list
