pass them through as is

* use proper sql quoting rules for USE, while preserving
  as much of historical behavior as possible
* short commands (\u) behave as before

when they're not needed anymore. Helps when
daemonizing it from mysql.init

Back port of WL#6782 to 5.5 and 5.6. This also includes
back port of Bug#20771331, Bug#20741572 and Bug#20770671.
Bug#24695274 and Bug#24679907 are also handled along with
this.

Also add fallback version string for unknown future versions.

Ensure atomic appends to the error log by using CreateFile with
FILE_APPEND_DATA flag to open error log file (both MTR and server)

fix PLUGIN_VAR_NOSYSVAR | PLUGIN_VAR_NOCMDOPT plugin thdvars to work.
use that for server_audit_loc_info

my_offsetof() returns a difference of two pointers, it must use the
appropriate return type (my_ptrdiff_t, not size_t)

Correct context chain made to allow outer fields pullout.

Post push fix: Solaris 10 /bin/sh don't understand $().

[This is the 5.5/5.6 version of the bugfix].

The problem was that it was possible to write log files ending
in .ini/.cnf that later could be parsed as an options file.
This made it possible for users to specify startup options
without the permissions to do so.

This patch fixes the problem by disallowing general query log
and slow query log to be written to files ending in .ini and .cnf.

During REPAIR TABLE of a MyISAM table, a temporary data file (.TMD)
is created. When repair finishes, this file is renamed to the original
.MYD file. The problem was that during this rename, we copied the
stats from the old file to the new file with chmod/chown. If a user
managed to replace the temporary file before chmod/chown was executed,
it was possible to get an arbitrary file with the privileges of the
mysql user.

This patch fixes the problem by not copying stats from the old
file to the new file. This is not needed as the new file was
created with the correct stats. This fix only changes server
behavior - external utilities such as myisamchk still does
chmod/chown.

No test case provided since the problem involves synchronization
with file system operations.

Argument to malloc-lib must be included in restricted list of
directories, symlink guards added, and mysqld and mysqld-version
options restricted to command line only. Don't redirect errors to
stderr.

The issue was that in some extreme cases when doing GROUP BY,
buffers for temporary blobs where not properly cleared.

Windows packaging : use /d switch to sign MSI, to prevent installer showing randomly generated name in UAC prompt

Reexecution of prepared "ANALYZE TABLE merge_table, table" may miss to
reinitialize "table" for subsequent execution and trigger assertion failure.

This happens because MERGE engine may adjust table->next_global chain, which
gets cleared by close_thread_tables()/ha_myisammrg::detach_children() later.
Since reinitilization iterates next_global chain, it won't see tables following
merge table.

Fixed by appending saved next_global chain after merge children.

"C:\Program Files (x86)" directory needs to be checked as well in
this case.

Fix memory barrier issues on releasing mutexes. We must have a full
memory barrier between releasing a mutex lock and reading its waiters.
This prevents us from missing to release waiters due to reading the
number of waiters speculatively before releasing the lock. If threads
try and wait between us reading the waiters count and releasing the
lock, those threads might stall indefinitely.

Also, we must use proper ACQUIRE/RELEASE semantics for atomic
operations, not ACQUIRE/ACQUIRE.

Windows!

a correct fix:
* store properly quoted table names in tables4repair/etc lists
* tell handle_request_for_tables whether the name is aalready properly quoted
* test cases for all uses of fix_table_name()

tmp_join may get its tables freed twice during JOIN cleanup. Set them to NULL
when the tmp_join is different than the current join.

MDEV-10500 CASE/IF Statement returns multiple values and shifts further result values to the next column

We assume all around the code that null_value==true is in sync
with NULL value returned by val_str()/val_decimal().
Item_sum_sum::val_decimal() erroneously returned a non-NULL value together
with null_value set to true. Fixing to return NULL instead.
