It was hard to understand what the error really meant.

The error checking in partitioning is done in several different
parts during the execution of a query which can make it
hard to return useful errors.

Added a new error for bad VALUES part in the per PARTITION clause.
Using the more verbose error that a column is not allowed in
the partitioning function instead of just that the function is
not allowed.

mysql-test/r/partition.result:
  changed error to be more specific
mysql-test/r/partition_error.result:
  updated result
mysql-test/std_data/parts/t1TIMESTAMP.frm:
  .frm file of CREATE TABLE t1 (a TIMESTAMP) PARTITION BY HASH(TO_DAYS(a));
mysql-test/t/partition.test:
  changed error to be more specific
mysql-test/t/partition_error.test:
  Added test (also for verifying behaviour of previously
  created tables which is no longer allowed).
  
  Updated expected errors in other places
sql/partition_info.cc:
  Added function report_part_expr_error to
  be able to return a more specific error.
  
  Renamed fix_func_partition to fix_partition_values
  since the function really fixes/checks the VALUES clause.
sql/partition_info.h:
  removed part_result_type, since it was unused.
  renamed fix_funk_partition->fix_partition_values
  added report_part_expr_error
sql/share/errmsg-utf8.txt:
  Added a more specific error.
sql/sql_partition.cc:
  made use of report_part_expr_error to get a more specific error.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
  Changed error message to be more specific. And return an other error code.

      
Problem: ENUM columns are sorted and distributed according to their
numeric value, but Field::hash() incorrectly passed string character set
(utf32) in combination with numeric value to the hash function,
which made assertion fail.

Fix: pass "binary" character set in combination with numeric value
to the hash function.

The ALTER PARTITION and SELECT seemed to be deadlocked
when having innodb_thread_concurrency = 1.

Problem was that there was unreleased latches
in the ALTER PARTITION thread which was needed
by the SELECT thread to be able to continue.

Solution was to release the latches by commit 
before requesting upgrade to exclusive MDL lock.

Updated according to reviewers comments (3).

mysql-test/r/partition_innodb.result:
  updated test result
mysql-test/t/partition_innodb.test:

sql/sql_partition.cc:
  Moved implicit commit into mysql_change_partition
  so that if latches are taken, they are always released
  before waiting on exclusive lock.

            attempt to install a plugin twice

Server crashes when [UN]INSTALL PLUGIN fails (returns an
error) and general log is disabled and there are audit
plugins interested in MYSQL_AUDIT_GENERAL_CLASS. 

When audit event is triggered, audit subsystem acquires interested
plugins by walking through plugin list. Evidently plugin list
iterator protects plugin list by acquiring LOCK_plugin, see
plugin_foreach_with_mask().

On the other hand [UN]INSTALL PLUGIN is acquiring LOCK_plugin
rather for a long time.

When audit event is triggered during [UN]INSTALL PLUGIN, plugin
list iterator acquires the same lock (within the same thread)
second time.

Repeatable only with general_log disabled, because general_log
triggers MYSQL_AUDIT_GENERAL_LOG event, which acquires audit
plugins before [UN]INSTALL PLUGIN acquired LOCK_plugin.

With this fix we pre-acquire audit plugins for events that
may potentially occur during [UN]INSTALL PLUGIN.

This hack should be removed when LOCK_plugin is fixed so it
protects only what it supposed to protect.

No test case for this fix - we do not have facility to test
audit plugins yet.

sql/sql_audit.cc:
  Move "acquire audit plugin" logics to a separate
  function.
sql/sql_audit.h:
  Move "acquire audit plugin" logics to a separate
  function.
sql/sql_plugin.cc:
  Pre-acquire audit plugins for events that may potentially occur

Problems:
- dot character was always printed as decimal point
  instead of localized decimal point for short
  numbers without thousands
- Item_func_format::val_str always returned values in ASCII
format,
  regargless of @@character_set_connection, which in case of utf32
  led to crash in debug build, or to incorrect values in release build.

Fix:
- Adding a piece of code to replace dot character to
  localized decimal point in short numbers.
- Changing parent class for Item_func_format to
  Item_str_ascii_func, because its val_str() implementation is heavily ASCII oriented.

was caused by change of thread state name from "Waiting for
table" to "Waiting for table metadata lock" (which has 
happened as part of fix for bug 52044 "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK and FLUSH TABLES <list> WITH READ LOCK are incompati").

           on CREATE TABLE .. SELECT I_S.PART

This assert was triggered if an InnoDB table was created using
CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT where the query used an I_S table, and
a view existed in the database. It would also be triggered for
any statement changing an InnoDB table (e.g. INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE)
which had a subquery referencing an I_S table.

The assert was triggered if open_normal_and_derived_tables() failed
and a statement transaction had been started. This will usually not
happen as tables are opened before a statement transaction is started.
However, e.g. CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT starts a transaction in order
to insert tuples into the new table. And if the subquery references
an I_S table, all current tables and views can be opened in order to
fill the I_S table on the fly. If a view is discovered, open will fail
as it is instructed to open tables only (OPEN_TABLE_ONLY). This would
cause the assert to be triggered.

The assert was added in the patch for Bug#52044 and was therefore
not in any released versions of the server.

This patch fixes the problem by adjusting the assert to take into
consideration the possibility of tables being opened as part of
an I_S query. This is similar to what is already done for 
close_tables_for_reopen().

Test case added to information_schema_inno.test.

temp table
            
This patch introduces two key changes in the replication's behavior.
            
Firstly, it reverts part of BUG#51894 which puts any update to temporary tables
into the trx-cache. Now, updates to temporary tables are handled according to
the type of their engines as a regular table.
            
Secondly, an unsafe mixed statement, (i.e. a statement that access transactional
table as well non-transactional or temporary table, and writes to any of them),
are written into the trx-cache in order to minimize errors in the execution when
the statement logging format is in use.
            
Such changes has a direct impact on which statements are classified as unsafe
statements and thus part of BUG#53259 is reverted.

Problem: a few functions did not calculate their max_length correctly.

    "binary" instead of the real character set was reported.

    item length properly.
    - Moving count_only_length() in COALESCE after
    agg_arg_charsets_for_string_result(). The old
    order was incorrect and led to wrong length
    calucation in case of multi-byte character sets.

    which is never FALSE.

           check_if_table_exists()

This assert was triggered when the server tried to load plugins
while running in embedded server mode. In embedded server mode,
check_if_table_exists() was used to check if mysql.plugin existed
so that ER_NO_SUCH_TABLE could be silently ignored.
The problem was that this check was done without acquiring a metadata
lock on mysql.plugin first. This triggered the assert.

This patch fixes the problem by removing the call to
check_if_table_exists() from plugin_load(). Instead an error handler
which traps ER_NO_SUCH_TABLE is installed before trying to open
mysql.plugin when running in embedded server mode.

No test coverage added since this assert was triggered by 
existing tests running in embedded server mode.

        'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT' behaviour
BUG#47132, BUG#47442, BUG49494, BUG#23992 and BUG#48814 will disappear
automatically after the this patch.
BUG#55617 is fixed by this patch too.
            
This is the 5.5 part.
It implements:
- 'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT' statement will not insert
  anything and binlog anything if the table already exists.
  It only generate a warning that table already exists.
- A couple of test cases for the behavior changing.

which didn't fully fix the test because the order of the returned
rows was different in embedded and non-embedded version. So the only
way to fix this is to add an ORDER BY clause.

           rpl_ndb.rpl_ndb_2other fails

The two regressions tests failed after WL#5349 was

requirement that MyISAM is the default storage engine.

Adding --default-storage-engine=MyISAM as startup
parameter, to mimic the pre-wl#5349 situation.
