      Bug #45067 Assertion `stmt_da->is_error()' in 
                 Delayed_insert::open_and_lock_table
      
      The assert was triggered when delayed insert was killed by another 
      connection using mysql_notify_thread_having_shared_lock().
      During handling of thd->killed, thd.fatal_error() was called without
      a previous call to my_error() which triggered the assert.
      This patch allows the assert to pass if thd->killed has been set.

        A fix and a test case for Bug#46610 "MySQL 5.4.4: MyISAM MRG engine crash
        on auto-repair of child".
        Also fixes Bug#42862 "Crash on failed attempt to open a children of a
        merge table".
      
        MERGE engine needs to extend the global table list
        with TABLE_LIST elements for child tables,
        so that they are opened and locked.
        Previously these table list elements were allocated
        in memory of ha_myisammrg object (MERGE engine handler).
        That would lead to access to freed memory in
        recover_from_failed_open_table_attempt(), which would
        try to recover a MERGE table child (MyISAM table)
        and use for that TABLE_LIST of that child.
        But by the time recover_from_failed_open_table_attempt()
        is invoked, ha_myisammrg object that owns this
        TABLE_LIST may be destroyed, and thus TABLE_LIST
        memory freed.
      
        The fix is to ensure that TABLE_LIST elements
        that are added to the global table list (lex->query_tables)
        are always allocated in thd->mem_root, which is not
        destroyed until end of execution.
      
        If previously TABLE_LIST elements were allocated
        at ha_myisammrg::open() (i.e. when the TABLE
        object was created and added to the table cache),
        now they are allocated in ha_myisammrg::add_chidlren_list()
        (i.e. right after "open" of the merge parent in
        open_tables()).
        We still create a list of children names
        at ha_myisammrg::open() to use as a basis
        for creation of TABLE_LISTs, that allows
        to avoid reading the merge handler data
        file on every execution.

        WL#4284 "Transactional DDL locking"
        A review fix.
        Since WL#4284 implementation separated MDL_request and MDL_ticket,
        MDL_request becamse a utility object necessary only to get a ticket.
        Store it by-value in TABLE_LIST with the intent to merge
        MDL_request::key with table_list->table_name and table_list->db
        in future.
        Change the MDL subsystem to not require MDL_requests to
        stay around till close_thread_tables().
        Remove the list of requests from the MDL context.
        Requests for shared metadata locks acquired in open_tables()
        are only used as a list in recover_from_failed_open_table_attempt(),
        which calls mdl_context.wait_for_locks() for this list.
        To keep such list for recover_from_failed_open_table_attempt(),
        introduce a context class (Open_table_context), that collects
        all requests.
        A lot of minor cleanups and simplications that became possible
        with this change.

        A fix and a test case for Bug#45035 "Altering table under LOCK TABLES
        results in "Error 1213 Deadlock found...".
      
        If a user had a table locked with LOCK TABLES
        for READ and for WRITE in the same connection, ALTER TABLE
        could fail.
      
        Root cause analysis:
      
        If a connection issues
      
        LOCK TABLE t1 write, t1 a read, t1 b read;
      
        the new LOCK TABLES code in 6.0 (part of WL 3726) will create
        the following list of TABLE_LIST objects
        (thd->locked_tables_list->m_locked_tables):
      
        {"t1" "b" tl_read_no_insert}, {"t1" "a" tl_read_no_insert},
        {"t1" "t1" tl_write }
      
        Later on, when we try to ALTER table t1, mysql_alter_table()
        closes all TABLE instances and releases its thr_lock locks,
        keeping only an exclusive metadata lock on t1.
      
        But when ALTER is finished, Locked_table_list::reopen_tables()
        tries to restore the original list of open and locked tables.
      
        Before this patch, it used to do so one by one:
        Open t1 b, get TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock,
        Open t1 a, get TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock
        Open t1, try to get TL_WRITE lock, deadlock.
      
        The cause of the deadlock is that thr_lock.c doesn't
        resolve the situation when the read list only consists
        of locks taken by the same thread, followed by this very
        thread trying to take a WRITE lock. Indeed, since
        thr_lock_multi always gets a sorted list of locks,
        WRITE locks always precede READ locks in the list
        to lock.
      
        Don't try to fix thr_lock.c deficiency, keep this
        code simple.
        Instead, try to take all thr_lock locks at once
        in ::reopen_tables().

        Fix for bug #39674 "On shutdown mdl_destroy() called before
        plugin_shutdown()".
      
        Attempt to shutdown PBXT engine plugin led to assertion failure
        caused by using already destroyed mutex in metadata locking
        subsystem.
      
        This problem stemmed from the fact that we MDL subsystem and
        table definition cache were deinitialized before plugin shutdown
        while PBXT plugin during its shutdown process accessed tables and
        therefore expected them to be in working shape.
      
        This patch solves this problem by moving deinitialization of
        these two subsystems after plugins are shut down.
      
        No test case is provided since such test case would require
        using PBXT or other plugin which accesses tables during its
        shutdown process.

      Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
      WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
      
      Currently the MySQL server does not keep metadata locks on
      schema objects for the duration of a transaction, thus failing
      to guarantee the integrity of the schema objects being used
      during the transaction and to protect then from concurrent
      DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
      a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
      active transactions using the object being modified.
      
      The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
      a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
      prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
      entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
      ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
      transactions.
      
      - Incompatible change:
      
      If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
      the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
      avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
      and trying to acquire them all in one go.
      
      But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
      as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
      of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
      To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
      returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.
      
      Let's consider an example:
      
      A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
      t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
      acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
      utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.
      
      At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
      shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
      might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
      locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
      -- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
      the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.
      
      - Incompatible change:
      
      FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
      LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.

      Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
      WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
      
      This is a prerequisite patch:
      
      These changes are intended to split lock requests from granted
      locks and to allow the memory and lifetime of granted locks to
      be managed within the MDL subsystem. Furthermore, tickets can
      now be shared and therefore are used to satisfy multiple lock
      requests, but only shared locks can be recursive.
      
      The problem is that the MDL subsystem morphs lock requests into
      granted locks locks but does not manage the memory and lifetime
      of lock requests, and hence, does not manage the memory of
      granted locks either. This can be problematic because it puts the
      burden of tracking references on the users of the subsystem and
      it can't be easily done in transactional contexts where the locks
      have to be kept around for the duration of a transaction.
      
      Another issue is that recursive locks (when the context trying to
      acquire a lock already holds a lock on the same object) requires
      that each time the lock is granted, a unique lock request/granted
      lock structure structure must be kept around until the lock is
      released. This can lead to memory leaks in transactional contexts
      as locks taken during the transaction should only be released at
      the end of the transaction. This also leads to unnecessary wake
      ups (broadcasts) in the MDL subsystem if the context still holds
      a equivalent of the lock being released.
      
      These issues are exacerbated due to the fact that WL#4284 low-level
      design says that the implementation should "2) Store metadata locks
      in transaction memory root, rather than statement memory root" but
      this is not possible because a memory root, as implemented in mysys,
      requires all objects allocated from it to be freed all at once.
      
      This patch combines review input and significant code contributions
      from Konstantin Osipov (kostja) and Dmitri Lenev (dlenev).

      Bug#39897: lock_multi fails in pushbuild: timeout waiting for processlist
      
      The problem is that relying on the "Table lock" thread state in
      its current position to detect that a thread is waiting on a lock
      is race prone. The "Table lock" state change happens before the
      thread actually tries to grab a lock on a table.
      
      The solution is to move the "Table lock" state so that its set
      only when a thread is actually going to wait for a lock. The state
      change happens after the thread fails to grab the lock (because it
      is owned by other thread) and proceeds to wait on a condition.
      
      This is considered part of work related to WL#4284 "Transactional
      DDL locking"
      Warning: this patch contains an incompatible change. 
      When waiting on a lock in thr_lock.c, the server used to display "Locked"
      processlist state. After this patch, the state is "Table lock".
      The new state was actually intended to be display since year 2002,
      when Monty added it. But up until removal of thd->locked boolean
      member, this state was ignored by SHOW PROCESSLIST code.

      WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
      
      Make transaction management more modular through a new interface.
      
      The overall objective of this change is to provide groundwork
      for the design of transactional DDL locking by cleaning up the
      transaction high level API to better distinguish operations implicit
      and explicit, and single statement transaction from operations on
      the normal transaction.
      
      Having a a high-level interface for transaction management provides
      a better base for implementing transactional concepts that are not
      always tied to storage engines and also makes it easier to interect
      with other higher level modules of the server.

      message:
      WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
      
      SQL statements' effect on transactions.
      
      Currently the MySQL server and its storage engines are not
      capable of rolling back operations that define or modify data
      structures (also known as DDL statements) or operations that
      alter any of the system tables (the mysql database). Allowing
      these group of statements to participate in transactions
      is unfeasible at this time (since rollback has no effect
      whatsoever on them) and goes against the design of our metadata
      locking subsystem.
      
      The solution is to issue implicit commits before and after
      those statements execution. This effectively confines each of
      those statements to its own special transaction and ensures
      that metadata locks taken during this special transaction
      are not leaked into posterior statements/transactions.

      message:
        WL#4144 - Lock MERGE engine children.
        Committing a version of the patch merged with WL#3726
        on behalf of Ingo.
      
        Step #1: Move locking from parent to children.
      
        MERGE children are now left in the query list of tables
        after inserted there in open_tables(). So they are locked
        by lock_tables() as all other tables are.
      
        The MERGE parent does not store locks any more. It appears
        in a MYSQL_LOCK with zero lock data. This is kind of a "dummy"
        lock.
      
        All other lock handling is also done directly on the children.
        To protect against parent or child modifications during LOCK
        TABLES, the children are detached after every statement and
        attached before every statement, even under LOCK TABLES.
      
        The children table list is removed from the query list of tables
        on every detach and on close of the parent.
      
        Step #2: Move MERGE specific functionality from SQL layer
        into table handler.
      
        Functionality moved from SQL layer (mainly sql_base.cc)
        to the table handler (ha_myisammrg.cc).
      
        Unnecessary code is removed from the SQL layer.
      
        Step #3: Moved all MERGE specific members from TABLE
        to ha_myisammrg.
      
        Moved members from TABLE to ha_myisammrg.
        Renamed some mebers.
        Fixed comments.
      
        Step #4: Valgrind and coverage testing
      
        Valgrind did not uncover new problems.
        Added purecov comments.
      
        Added a new test for DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY options.
        Changed handling of ::reset() for non-attached children.
        Fixed the merge-big test.
      
        Step #5: Fixed crashes detected during review
        Changed detection when to attach/detach.
        Added new tests.
      
      Backport also the fix for Bug#44040 "MySQL allows creating a 
      MERGE table upon VIEWs but crashes when using it"

      message:
        Fix build failure of mysql-6.0-3726 tree on Windows.
      
        The failure was caused by the fact that sql/mdl.cc was
        using __func__ macro without including sql_profile.h
        header which contained definition of this macro for
        those platforms that miss it.
      
        This patch solves this problem by moving this define to
        include/my_global.h which makes it available in modules
        which don't/can't include sql/mysql_priv.h.
      
      This is a patch that is part of WL#3726.

        We may still have to do something to ensure that statement-based
        replication is consistent in MVCC engines, or other engines
        that downgrade table level locks, but this will have to be done
        somehow differently.
