Older GCC generates SSE instruction on not-128-bit-aligned data in
Bitmap<128>::buffer

Workaround by forcing GCC not to use SSE on Bitmap<N> template.

MDEV-16249 CHECKSUM TABLE for a spider table is not parallel and saves all data in memory in the spider head by default (#1328)

add checksum_null for setting null value of checksum

MDEV-18788 Live upgrade from MySQL 5.6/5.7 to MariaDB 10.4 fails with "Event Scheduler: An error occurred when initializing system tables"

if columns or indexes are modified/renamed/dropped in an ALTER TABLE,
stat tables must be updated accordingly (e.g. all statistics for a column
should be dropped). But if a stat table doesn't exist, it's not a reason
to fail the whole ALTER TABLE operation - such an error should be ignored.

comments, rename a function to reflect its usage better

Using different recommended speedup options for WolfSSL.

- Enable  x64 assembly code on Intel.
- in my_crypt.cc, align EVP_CIPHER_CTX buffer, since some members need
alignment of 16 (for AESNI instructions), when assembler is enabled.
- Adjust MY_AES_CTX_SIZE
- Enable fastmath in wolfssl (large integer math).

client-certkey.pem contains both certificate and corresponding
private key.

row_search_mvcc(): Duplicate the logic of btr_pcur_move_to_next()
so that an infinite loop can be avoided when advancing to the next
page fails due to a corrupted page.

Also, --skip-innodb-buffer-pool-load-at-startup to avoid a crash
in buf_load() due to loading pages that we are corrupting intentionally.

Apprently, sometimes there will be null pointers with 0 length
passed to the MyCTX::update() function, and  will need to return
a valid buffer.

So weaken the assertion, and use a valid pointer for src if it was NULL.

At higher levels of innodb_force_recovery, the InnoDB transaction
subsystem will not be set up at all.

At slightly lower levels, recovered transactions will not be rolled back,
and DDL operations could hang due to locks being held at all.

Let us consistently refuse all writes if the predicate
high_level_read_only holds. We failed to refuse DROP TABLE
and DROP DATABASE. (Refusing DROP TABLE is a partial backport
from MDEV-19570 in the 10.5 branch.)

- Replace mysql_version check with omit_virtual_cols() in
ha_innobase::check_if_supported_inplace_alter().

- If one of the encryption threads already started the initialization
of the tablespace then don't remove the other uninitialized tablespace
from the rotation list.

- If there is a change in innodb_encrypt_tables then
don't remove the processed tablespace from rotation list.

LOCK_global_system_variables: Declare with MYSQL_PLUGIN_IMPORT

Changed the function append_range_all_keyparts to use sel_arg_range_seq_init / sel_arg_range_seq_next to produce ranges.
Also adjusted to print format for the ranges, now the ranges are printed as:
    (keypart1_min, keypart2_min,..)  OP (keypart1_name,keypart2_name, ..) OP (keypart1_max,keypart2_max, ..)

Also added more tests for range and index merge access for optimizer trace

- Don't apply redo log for the corrupted page when innodb_force_recovery > 0.
- Allow the table to be dropped when index root page is
corrupted when innodb_force_recovery > 0.

The update callback functions for several settable global InnoDB variables
are acquiring InnoDB latches while holding LOCK_global_system_variables.

On the other hand, some InnoDB code is invoking THDVAR() while holding
InnoDB latches. An example of this is thd_lock_wait_timeout() that is
called by lock_rec_enqueue_waiting(). In some cases, the
intern_sys_var_ptr() that is invoked by THDVAR() may acquire
LOCK_global_system_variables, via sync_dynamic_session_variables().

In lock_rec_enqueue_waiting(), we really must be holding some InnoDB
latch while invoking THDVAR(). This implies that
LOCK_global_system_variables must conceptually reside below any InnoDB
latch in the latching order. That in turns implies that the various
update callback functions must release LOCK_global_system_variables
before acquiring any InnoDB mutexes or rw-locks, and reacquire
LOCK_global_system_variables later. The validate functions are being
invoked while not holding LOCK_global_system_variables and thus they
do not need any changes.

buf_LRU_old_ratio_update(): Correct the return type.

Remove the separate allocation and pointer indirection of
dict_v_col_t::v_indexes.

C++11 defines the singly-linked std::forward_list. Prefer it to
the doubly-linked std::list in cases where we dot really need it.
Also, clean up some code.

dict_index_remove_from_v_col_list(): Remove.
Obsoleted by dict_index_t::detach_columns().

There is no std::forward_list::push_back(). Use push_front() instead.
The ordering does not really matter.

dict_v_col_t::n_v_indexes: Added. There is no std::forward_list::size(),
and trx_undo_log_v_idx() needs to know the size.

rtr_info_track_t::rtr_active: Encapsulate. There really was no justification
for the pointer indirection.

or server crashes in JOIN::fix_all_splittings_in_plan after EXPLAIN

This patch resolves the problem of overflowing when performing
calculations to estimate the cost of an evaluated query execution plan.
The overflowing in a non-debug build could cause different kind of
problems uncluding crashes of the server.

- create_table_def() misconstructs the dict_table_t by ignoring the stored
columns of the table if virtual column is present between stored columns.
