This is a null-merge, there is nothing to change in 5.5 and up.
That bug is strictly specific to 5.1 and the InnoDB *plugin*.

innochecksum not built for --with-plugin-innodb_plugin --without-plugin-innobase

In 5.1, we can have the traditional "innobase" code
(built-in) or the new version "innodb" (plugin).
The help tool "innochecksum" is useful for both,
but its generation was coupled to "innobase" only.

Fix this by treating both "innobase" and "innodb"
equivalent in the configure phase,
this affects both "innochecksum" and the InnoDB documentation.

This patch was proposed by Mark Callaghan.

Let the creation of the "test" database happen only during a new
installation, not in an RPM upgrade.

GCC 4.6 has new -Wunused-but-set-variable flag, which is enabled
by -Wall, that causes GCC to emit a warning whenever a local variable
is assigned to, but otherwise unused (aside from its declaration).

Since the maintainer mode uses -Wall and -Werror, source code which
triggers these warnings will be rejected. That is, these warnings
become hard errors.

The solution is to fix the code which triggers these specific warnings.
In most of the cases, this is a welcome cleanup as code which triggers
this warning is probably dead anyway.

dbug/dbug.c:
  Unused but set.
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
  Length is not necessary as the converted error message is always
  null-terminated.
sql/item_func.cc:
  Make get_var_with_binlog private to this compilation unit.
  If a error was raised, do not attempt to evaluate the user
  variable as the statement execution will be interrupted
  anyway.
sql/mysqld.cc:
  Use a void expression to silence the warning. Avoids the use of
  macros that would make the code more unreadable than it already is.
sql/protocol.cc:
  Length is not necessary as the converted error message is always
  null-terminated. Remove unnecessary casts and assignment.
sql/sql_class.h:
  Function is only used in a single compilation unit.
sql/sql_load.cc:
  Only use the variable outside of EMBEDDED_LIBRARY.
storage/innobase/btr/btr0cur.c:
  Do not retrieve field, only the record length is being used.
storage/perfschema/pfs.cc:
  Use a void expression to silence the warning.

OLD VALUE OF INPUT PARAMETER.

The user-visible problem was that CASE-control-flow function
(not CASE-statement) misbehaved in stored routines under some
circumstances. The problem resulted in a crash or wrong data
returned. The error happened when expressions in CASE-function
were not of the same character set.

A CASE-function should return values of the same character set
for all branches. Internally, that means a new Item-instance
for the CONVERT(... USING <some charset>)-function is added
to the item tree when needed. The problem was that such changes
were not properly recorded using THD::change_item_tree(),
thus dangling pointers remain in the item tree after
THD::rollback_item_tree_changes(), which lead to undefined
behavior (i.e. crash / wrong data) for subsequent executions of
the stored routine.

This bug was introduced by a patch for Bug 11753363
(44793 - CHARACTER SETS: CASE CLAUSE, UCS2 OR UTF32, FAILURE).

The fixed function is Item_func_case::fix_length_and_dec().
New CONVERT-items are added in agg_item_set_converter(),
which calls THD::change_item_tree().

The problem was that an intermediate array was passed
to agg_item_set_converter(). Thus, THD::change_item_tree() there
was called on intermediate objects.

Note: those intermediate objects are allocated on THD's
memory root, so it's Ok to put them into "changed item lists".

The fix is to track changes on the correct objects.

sql/my_decimal.h:
  Implement proper swap() function.

This is the 5.1 version of the fix.
      
Need to free the memory allocated by the option parsing code for empty 
strings when resetting the pointer to NULL.
No test case needed, as the existing ones already cover this path.

around the declaration of trx_assert_recovered().

Refactor the !rec_offs_any_extern relaxation in row_build().

trx_assert_active(trx_id): Assert that the given transaction is active.
(In the 5.1 built-in InnoDB, there is no trx->is_recovered field.)

trx_assert_recovered(trx_id): Assert that the given transaction is
active and has been recovered after a crash.

row_build(): Replace a bunch of code with an assertion that invokes
trx_assert_active() or trx_assert_recovered() and row_get_rec_trx_id().

row_get_trx_id_offset(): Make the function inlined. Remove the unused
parameter rec, and make all parameters const.

row_get_rec_trx_id(), row_get_rec_roll_ptr(): Make all parameters const.

page_zip_dir_elems(): New function, refactored from page_zip_dir_size().

page_zip_dir_size(): Use page_zip_dir_elems()

page_zip_dir_start_offs(): New function: Gets an offset to the
compressed page trailer (the dense page directory), including deleted
records (the free list)

page_zip_dir_start_low(page_zip, n_dense): Constness-preserving
wrapper macro for page_zip_dir_start_offs().

page_zip_dir_start(page_zip): Constness-preserving
wrapper macro for page_zip_dir_start_offs().

page_zip_decompress_node_ptrs(), page_zip_decompress_clust(): Replace
a formula with a fully equivalent page_zip_dir_start_low() call.

page_zip_write_rec(), page_zip_parse_write_node_ptr(),
page_zip_write_node_ptr(), page_zip_write_trx_id_and_roll_ptr(),
page_zip_clear_rec(): Replace a formula with an almost equivalent
page_zip_dir_start() call.
It is OK to replace page_dir_get_n_heap(page) with
page_dir_get_n_heap(page_zip->data), because
ut_ad(page_zip_header_cmp(page_zip, page)) or
page_zip_validate(page_zip, page) asserts that the
page headers are identical.

BOGUS "THE TABLE MYSQL.PROC IS MISSING,..."

There was a race condition between loading a stored routine
(function/procedure/trigger) specified by fully qualified name
SCHEMA_NAME.PROC_NAME and dropping the stored routine database.

The problem was that there is a window for race condition when one server
thread tries to load a stored routine being executed and the other thread
tries to drop the stored routine schema.

This condition race window exists in implementation of function
mysql_change_db() called by db_load_routine() during loading of stored
routine to cache. Function mysql_change_db() calls check_db_dir_existence()
that might failed because specified database was dropped during concurrent
execution of DROP SCHEMA statement. db_load_routine() calls mysql_change_db()
with flag 'force_switch' set to 'true' value so when referenced db is not found
then my_error() is not called and function mysql_change_db() returns ok.
This shadows information about schema opening error in db_load_routine().
Then db_load_routine() makes attempt to parse stored routine that is failed.
This makes to return error to sp_cache_routines_and_add_tables_aux() but since
during error generation a call to my_error wasn't made and hence
THD::main_da wasn't set we set the generic "mysql.proc table corrupt" error
when running sp_cache_routines_and_add_tables_aux().

The fix is to install an error handler inside db_load_routine() for
the mysql_op_change_db() call, and check later if the ER_BAD_DB_ERROR
was caught.


sql/sql_db.cc:
  Added synchronization point "before_db_dir_check" to emulate a race condition during
  processing of CALL/DROP SCHEMA.

Coalescing of free buf_page_t descriptors can prove to be one severe
bottleneck in performance of compression. One such workload where it
hurts badly is DROP TABLE. This patch removes buf_page_t allocations
from buf_buddy and uses ut_malloc instead.
In order to further reduce overhead of colaescing we no longer attempt
to coalesce a block if the corresponding free_list is less than 16 in
size.

This patch fixes a typo in a YaSSL error message.

TO POSITION FIRST CAN CAUSE DATA TO BE CORRUPTED".
 
ALTER TABLE MODIFY/CHANGE ... FIRST did nothing except renaming
columns if new version of the table had exactly the same 
structure as the old one (i.e. as result of such statement, names 
of columns changed their order as specified but data in columns 
didn't). The same thing happened for ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN/ADD 
COLUMN statements which were supposed to produce new version of
table with exactly the same structure as the old version of table.
I.e. in the latter case the result was the same as if old column 
was renamed instead of being dropped and new column with default
as value being created.
 
Both these problems were caused by the fact that ALTER TABLE
implementation incorrectly interpreted both these situations as 
simple renaming of columns and assumed that in-place ALTER TABLE
algorithm could have been used for them.
 
This patch fixes this problem by ensuring that in cases when some
column is moved to the first position or some column is dropped
the default ALTER TABLE algorithm involving table copying is 
always used. This is achieved by detecting such situations in
mysql_prepare_alter_table() and setting Alter_info::change_level
to ALTER_TABLE_DATA_CHANGED for them.

  Added test for bug #12652385 - "61493: REORDERING COLUMNS TO

sql/sql_table.cc:
  Changed mysql_prepare_alter_table() to detect situations in 
  which we some column moved to the first position or some column 
  is dropped and ensure that such ALTER TABLE statements won't
  be carried out using in-place algorithm. The latter could have 
  happened before this patch if new version of table had the same 
  structure as the old one (except the column names).

There is an apparent problem with page_zip_clear_rec().
In btr_cur_optimistic_update() we do this:

	page_cur_delete_rec(page_cursor, index, offsets, mtr);
...
	rec = btr_cur_insert_if_possible(cursor, new_entry, 0/*n_ext*/, mtr);
	ut_a(rec); /* <- We calculated above the insert would fit */

The problem is that page_cur_delete_rec() could fill the modification
log while doing page_zip_clear_rec(), requiring recompression for the
btr_cur_insert_if_possible(). In a pathological case, the data could
fail to recompress.

page_zip_clear_rec(): Leave the page modification log alone. Only
clear the necessary fields.

Replace UNIV_BLOB_NULL_DEBUG with UNIV_DEBUG||UNIV_BLOB_LIGHT_DEBUG. 
Fix known bogus failures.

btr_cur_optimistic_update(): If rec_offs_any_null_extern(), assert that
the current transaction is an incomplete transaction that is being
rolled back in crash recovery.

row_build(): If rec_offs_any_null_extern(), assert that the transaction
that last updated the record was recovered during crash recovery
(and will soon be rolled back).

btr_cur_compress_if_useful(), btr_compress(): Add the parameter ibool
adjust. If adjust=TRUE, adjust the cursor position after compressing
the page.

btr_lift_page_up(): Return a pointer to the father page.

BTR_KEEP_POS_FLAG: A new flag for btr_cur_pessimistic_update().

btr_cur_pessimistic_update(): If *big_rec != NULL and flags &
BTR_KEEP_POS_FLAG, keep the cursor positioned on the updated record.
Also, do not release the index tree x-lock if *big_rec != NULL.

btr_cur_mtr_commit_and_start(): Commits and restarts a
mini-transaction so that it will retain an x-lock on index->lock and
the page of the cursor. This is invoked when
btr_cur_pessimistic_update() returns *big_rec != NULL.

In all callers of btr_cur_pessimistic_update() that do not pass
BTR_KEEP_POS_FLAG, assert that *big_rec == NULL.

btr_cur_compress(): Unused function [in the built-in MySQL 5.1], remove.

page_rec_get_nth(): Return the nth record on the page (an inverse
function of page_rec_get_n_recs_before()). Refactored from
page_get_middle_rec().

page_get_middle_rec(): Invoke page_rec_get_nth().

page_cur_insert_rec_zip_reorg(): Make use of the page directory
shortcuts in page_rec_get_nth() instead of scanning the whole list of
records.

row_ins_clust_index_entry_by_modify(): Pass BTR_KEEP_POS_FLAG to
btr_cur_pessimistic_update().

row_ins_index_entry_low(): If row_ins_clust_index_entry_by_modify()
returns a big_rec, invoke btr_cur_mtr_commit_and_start() in order to
commit and start the mini-transaction without releasing the x-locks on
index->lock and the cursor page, and write the big_rec. Releasing the
page latch in mtr_commit() caused a race condition.

row_upd_clust_rec(): Pass BTR_KEEP_POS_FLAG to
btr_cur_pessimistic_update(). If it returns a big_rec, invoke
btr_cur_mtr_commit_and_start() in order to commit and start the
mini-transaction without releasing the x-locks on index->lock and the
cursor page, and write the big_rec. Releasing the page latch in
mtr_commit() caused a race condition.

sync_thread_add_level(): Add the parameter ibool relock. When TRUE,
bypass the latching order rules.

rw_lock_add_debug_info(): For nested X-lock requests, pass relock=TRUE
to sync_thread_add_level().

Some ut_a(!rec_offs_any_null_extern()) assertion failures are indicating
genuine BLOB bugs, others are bogus failures when rolling back incomplete
transactions at crash recovery. This needs more work, and until I get a
chance to work on it, other testing must not be disrupted by this.
