Test case only (code part was pushes as bug-49028)

  Bug#48737: Partitions: search fails with ucs2
  
  Added result

Post-merge fix: wait for statement result before disconnecting. Otherwise the statement might affect unrelated tests. mysql-test/t/lock_multi.test, Reap statement status

Remove per-project SAFEMALLOCs definitions, as they result in malloc/free mismatches.

BUG#49591, Fixed version string in SHOW CREATE TABLE to accomodate for column list partitioning and new function to_seconds

The test allowed random coincidence of connection ids for two concurrent
sessions performing CREATE/DROP temp tables.

Fixed with correcting the test. The sessions connection ids are not changed
from their defaults anymore.

                  
When compressed myisam files are opened, they are always memory mapped
sometimes causing memory swapping problems.

When we mmap the myisam compressed tables of size greater than the memory 
available, the kswapd0 process utilization is very high consuming 30-40% of 
the cpu. This happens only with linux kernels older than 2.6.9

With newer linux kernels, we don't have this problem of high cpu consumption
and this option may not be required.
 
The option 'myisam_mmap_size' is added to limit the amount of memory used for
memory mapping of myisam files. This option is not dynamic.

The default value on 32 bit system is 4294967295 bytes and on 64 bit system it
is 18446744073709547520 bytes.

Note: Testcase only tests the option variable. The actual bug has be to 
tested manually.

returns incorrect results with where

An outer join of a const table (outer) and a normal table
(inner) with GROUP BY on a field from the outer table would
optimize away GROUP BY, and thus trigger the optimization to
do away with a temporary table if grouping was performed on
columns from the const table, hence executing the query with
filesort without temporary table. But this should not be
done if there is a non-indexed access to the inner table,
since filesort does not handle joins. It expects either ref
access, range ditto or table scan. The join condition will
thus not be applied.

Fixed by always forcing execution with temporary table in
the case of ROLLUP with a query involving an outer join. This
is a slightly broader class of queries than need fixing, but
it is hard to ascertain the position of a ROLLUP field wrt
outer join with current query representation.

  Bug#47650: Fix

Problem: inserting a record we don't set unused null bits in the
record buffer if no default field values used.
That may lead to wrong live checksum calculation.

Fix: set unused null bits in the record buffer in such cases.

    - test result.
mysql-test/t/myisam.test:
  Fix for bug#49465: valgrind warnings and incorrect live checksum...
    - test case.
sql/sql_insert.cc:
  Fix for bug#49465: valgrind warnings and incorrect live checksum...
    - set unused null bits to 1 in the record buffer in case we
  don't call restore_record() before a fill_record() call
  (when no default values used).

The bug is caused by a race condition between the 
INSERT DELAYED thread and the client thread's FLUSH TABLE.  The 
FLUSH TABLE does not guarantee (as is (wrongly) suggested in the 
test case) that the INSERT DELAYED is ever executed.  The 
execution of the test case will thus not be deterministic.

The fix has been to do a deterministic verification that both
threads are complete by checking the content of the table.

Calling push_warning/push_warning_printf with a level of
WARN_LEVEL_ERROR *is* a bug. We should either use my_error(),
or WARN_LEVEL_WARN.

select of platform dependend variable.

This test case tests a circular replication of four hosts. 
A--->B--->C--->D--->A
The replicate is slow and needs more time to replicate all data in the circle.
The time it spends to replicate, sometimes, is longer than the time that 
wait_condition.inc spends to wait that all data has been replicated. This
cause sporadical failure of this test case.
  
This patch uses sync_slave_with_master to ensure that all data can be replicated
successfully in the circle.

Only relative log events are showed.

NOTE: the "utf8_phone_ci" collation does not exist in mysql-trunk yet,
so another collation with 2-byte collation ID is used: "utf8_test_ci".

This patch will be null-merged to mysql-next-mr-bugfixing.

message:
  Bug#47756 Setting 2byte collation ID with 'set names' crashes the server
  
  The problem is not actually related to 2byte collation IDs.
  The same crash happens if you change the collation ID in
  mysql-test/str_data/Index.xml to a value smaller than 256.
  
  Crash happened in SQL parser, because the "ident_map" and "state_map"
  arrays were not initialized in loadable utf8 collations.
  
  Fix: adding proper initialization of the "ident_map" and "state_map"
  members for loadable utf8 collations.
------------------------------------------------------------

 int join_read_key(JOIN_TAB*)

The eq_ref access method TABLE_REF (accessed through 
JOIN_TAB) to save state and to track if this is the 
first row it finds or not.
This state was not reset on subquery re-execution
causing an assert.

Fixed by resetting the state before the subquery 
re-execution.

NULLable BIGINT and INT columns in comparison

Problem: a consequence of the fix for 43668.
Some Arg_comparator inner initialization missed,
that may lead to unpredictable (wrong) comparison
results.

Fix: always properly initialize Arg_comparator
before its usage.
