The problem was earlier fixed by MDEV-30805. Adding an MTR test only.

MariaDB Compression pluging pacakages mariadb-plugin-provider-*
have only one shared object and those are not linked against
libc and it's intentional so supressing error

There is needed dependency for Systemd DH plugin which
makes error missing-build-dependency-for-dh-addon obsolette.

Reworked debian/control that makes most of
version-substvar-for-external-package error not correct
so remove those that are not available anymore and update
those that are still relevant.

NOTE TO MERGER: This is only up-to MariaDB 10.10.

Lintian erros with

One of these premises should be installed:
 debhelper:any (>= 9.20160709~)
 debhelper-compat:any
 dh-sequence-systemd:any
 dh-systemd:any

As there is package debhelper version 10 or higher required
for build. This is false positive Lintian error which should
be supressed..

Remove

In debian/control file there is several mariadb-*-10.9 Conflicts
or Replaces that which are not neede on MariaDB 10.9 anymore
as there is not suffix anymore.

Package libmariadbclient-dev is part of Ubuntu and it's
not build with official package so there can't be
variable: '${source:Version}' which is used with packages
that are part of package.

NOTE TO MERGER: This is only up-to MariaDB 10.10.

recv_log_recover_10_5(): Make reads aligned by 4096 bytes, to avoid
any trouble in case the file was opened in O_DIRECT mode and
the physical block size is larger than 512 bytes.
Because innodb_log_file_size used to be defined in whole megabytes,
reading multiples of 4096 bytes instead of 512 should not be an issue.

This is because some plan changes because of views

The new statistics is enabled by adding the "engine", "innodb" or "full"
option to --log-slow-verbosity

Example output:

 # Pages_accessed: 184  Pages_read: 95  Pages_updated: 0  Old_rows_read: 1
 # Pages_read_time: 17.0204  Engine_time: 248.1297

Page_read_time is time doing physical reads inside a storage engine.
(Writes cannot be tracked as these are usually done in the background).
Engine_time is the time spent inside the storage engine for the full
duration of the read/write/update calls. It uses the same code as
'analyze statement' for calculating the time spent.

The engine statistics is done with a generic interface that should be
easy for any engine to use. It can also easily be extended to provide
even more statistics.

Currently only InnoDB has counters for Pages_% and Undo_% status.
Engine_time works for all engines.

Implementation details:

class ha_handler_stats holds all engine stats.  This class is included
in handler and THD classes.
While a query is running, all statistics is updated in the handler. In
close_thread_tables() the statistics is added to the THD.

handler::handler_stats is a pointer to where statistics should be
collected. This is set to point to handler::active_handler_stats if
stats are requested. If not, it is set to 0.
handler_stats has also an element, 'active' that is 1 if stats are
requested. This is to allow engines to avoid doing any 'if's while
updating the statistics.

Cloned or partition tables have the pointer set to the base table if
status are requested.

There is a small performance impact when using --log-slow-verbosity=engine:
- All engine calls in 'select' will be timed.
- IO calls for InnoDB reads will be timed.
- Incrementation of counters are done on local variables and accesses
  are inline, so these should have very little impact.
- Statistics has to be reset for each statement for the THD and each
  used handler. This is only 40 bytes, which should be neglectable.
- For partition tables we have to loop over all partitions to update
  the handler_status as part of table_init(). Can be optimized in the
  future to only do this is log-slow-verbosity changes. For this to work
  we have to update handler_status for all opened partitions and
  also for all partitions opened in the future.

Other things:
- Added options 'engine' and 'full' to log-slow-verbosity.
- Some of the new files in the test suite comes from Percona server, which
  has similar status information.
- buf_page_optimistic_get(): Do not increment any counter, since we are
  only validating a pointer, not performing any buf_pool.page_hash lookup.
- Added THD argument to save_explain_data_intern().
- Switched arguments for save_explain_.*_data() to have
  always THD first (generates better code as other functions also have THD
  first).

on aarch64 `char` by default is unsigned for performance reasons.
let's adjust checks to work for both signed and unsigned `char`

followup for ef84f813

optimizer implicitly assumed that if `a` in `a=b` is not NULL,
then it's safe to convert `a` to the type of `b` and search the
result in the index(b).

which is not always the case, as converting a non-null value
to a different type might produce NULL. And searching for NULL
in the index might find NULL there, so NULL will be equal to NULL,
making `a=b` behave as if it was `a<=>b`

* UUIDs version >= 6 are now stored without byte-swapping
* UUIDs with version >=8 and variant=0 are now considered invalid
* old tables are supported
* old (always byte swapped) and new (swapped for version < 6) UUIDs
  can be compared and converted transparently

this is a necessary prerequisite for making UUID itself a template

fil_node_open_file_low(): Always acquire an advisory lock on
the system tablespace. Originally, we already did this in
SysTablespace::open_file(), but SysTablespace::open_or_create()
would release those locks when it is closing the file handles.

This is a 10.5+ specific follow up to
commit 0ee1082b (MDEV-28495).

Thanks to Daniel Black for verifying this bug.

SysTablespace::set_size(): Use correct 64-bit arithmetics for
reporting the initial size of the InnoDB system or temporary tablespace.

When InnoDB attempts to buffer a change operation of a secondary index
leaf page (to insert, delete-mark or remove a record) and the
change buffer is too large, InnoDB used to trigger a change buffer merge
that could affect any tables. This could lead to huge variance in
system throughput and potentially unpredictable crashes, in case the
change buffer was corrupted and a crash occurred while attempting to
merge changes to a table that is not being accessed by the current
SQL statement.

ibuf_insert_low(): Simply return DB_STRONG_FAIL when the maximum size
of the change buffer is exceeded.

ibuf_contract_after_insert(): Remove.

ibuf_get_merge_page_nos_func(): Remove a constant parameter.
The function ibuf_contract() will be our only caller, during
shutdown with innodb_fast_shutdown=0.

debug-only issue. the test was doing

  set debug_sync='now SIGNAL go3';
  ...
  set debug_sync='reset';

which translated into

  add "go3" to the hash of active signals
  pthread_broadcast to wake up waiting threads
  ...
  clear the hash of active signals

as a result a waiting thread was awoken, but the hash was emptied
before the thread checked if its signal was in the hash. so the
thread didn't find its signal and went back to sleep.

let's wait until the awoken thread has completely finished
disconnecting and was added to the thread cache.

debug_sync refactoring introduced a statically instantiated object
debug_sync_global of the structure st_debug_sync_globals.
st_debug_sync_globals includes Hash_set<> which allocates memory
in the constructor. sf_malloc() calls _my_thread_var()->dbug_id
which is pthread_getspecific(THR_KEY_mysys), and THR_KEY_mysys is 0
before pthread_key_create(). pthread_getspecific(0) returns a valid
pointer, not EINVAL. And safemalloc dereferences it.

let's statically initialize THR_KEY_mysys to -1, this makes
pthread_getspecific(THR_KEY_mysys) to fail before pthread_key_create()
is called.

now the main class is the Type_handler_fbt.

It contains everything and generates objects of all other classes as
needed.

it was calling Fbt::to_string(char*, size_t)
which didn't exist

it's a hard-coded geometry-specific method, move it into
geometry-specific function. Will go away in the future.

add the test case

dict_stats_persistent_storage_check(): Do not output errmsg
if opt_bootstrap holds, because the message buffer would likely
be uninitialized.

log_t::write_checkpoint(), log_t::resize_start(): Invoke buf_flush_ahead()
with buf_pool.get_oldest_modification(0)+1 so that another checkpoint will
be invoked, to complete the log resizing.

Tested by: Oleg Smirnov (on Microsoft Windows, where this hung most often)

ha_innobase::delete_table(): Also on DROP SEQUENCE, do try to drop any
persistent statistics. They should really not be created for
SEQUENCE objects (which internally are 1-row no-rollback tables),
but that is how happened to always work.

i_s_innodb_buffer_page_get_info(): Correct a condition.
After crash recovery, there may be some buffer pool pages in FREED state,
containing garbage (invalid data page contents). Let us ignore such pages
in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA output.

The test innodb.innodb_defragment_fill_factor will be removed, because
the queries that it is invoking on information_schema.innodb_buffer_page
would start to fail. The defragmentation feature was removed in
commit 7ca89af6 in MariaDB Server 11.1.

Tested by: Matthias Leich

btr_search_hash_table_validate(), btr_search_validate(): Add the
parameter THD for checking if the statement has been killed.
Any non-QUICK CHECK TABLE will validate the entire adaptive hash index
for all InnoDB tables, which may be extremely slow when running
multiple concurrent CHECK TABLE.

During the upgrade procedure on Windows mysqld.exe is started with
the named pipe connection protocol. mysqladmin.exe then pings the
server to check if is up and running. Command line looks like:
   mysqladmin.exe --protocol=pipe --socket=mysql_upgrade_service_xxx ping
But the "socket" parameter resets the "protocol" which was previously
initialized with the "pipe" value, setting it to "socket".
As a result, connection cannot be established and the upgrade
procedure fails.
"socket" in Windows is used to pass the name of the pipe so resetting
the protocol is not valid in this case.

This commit fixes resetting of the "protocol" parameter with "socket"
parameter in the case when protocol has been previously initialized
to "pipe" value

When CURSOR parameters get parsed, their sp_assignment_lex instances
(one instance per parameter) get collected to List<sp_assignment_lex>.

These instances get linked to sphead only in the end of the list.
If a syntax error happened in the middle of the parameter list,
these instances were not deleted, which caused memory leaks.

Fix:

using a Bison %destructor to free rules of the <sp_assignment_lex_list>
type (on syntax errors).

Afte the fix these sp_assignment_lex instances from CURSOR parameters
deleted as follows:

- If the CURSOR statement was fully parsed, then these instances
  get properly linked to sp_head structures, so they are deleted
  during ~sp_head (this did not change)

- If the CURSOR statement failed on a syntax error, then by Bison's
  %destructor (this is being added in the current patch).
