the problem is the same as reported in bug#20835,
so the fix is backport of bug#20835 patch.

variable settings (rpl_sys)

Problem: under certain conditions (e.g. user variables usage in triggers)
accessing a user defined variable we may use a variables hash table that
belongs to already deleted thread. It happens if
thd= new THD;
has the same address as just deleted thd as we use
if (stored_thd == thd)
to check.
That may lead to unpredictable results, server crash etc.

Fix: use thread_id instead of thd address to distinguish threads.

Note: no simple and repeatable test case.


sql/item_func.cc:
  Fix for bug#40770: Server Crash when running with triggers including
  variable settings (rpl_sys)
    - store and use thd->thread_id to distinguish threads instead of
  thread address as it may be the same as just deleted thread had, 
  i.e. we may get (old_thd == new_thd) after
  delete old_thd;
  new_thd= new THD;
    - set entry_thread_id only when we get a real entry, clear it 
  if the hash search fails.
sql/item_func.h:
  Fix for bug#40770: Server Crash when running with triggers including

    - Item_func_set_user_var::entry_thread_id introduced.

Problem: memory leak occurs when we open a federated table
that has its share in the hash.

Fix: free not used memory.

Note: the fix should NOT be merged to 5.1 (the code changed).

This patch makes @@session.max_allowed_packed and
@@session.net_buffer_length read-only as suggested in the bug
report. The user will have to use SET GLOBAL (and reconnect)
to alter the session values of these variables.
                            
The error string ER_VARIABLE_IS_READONLY is introduced.
                            
Tests are modified accordingly.


sql/set_var.cc:
  The class sys_var_thd_ulong_session_readonly is introduced as
  a specialization of sys_var_thd_ulong implementing a read-only
  session variable. The class overrides check() and
  check_default() to achieve the read-only property for the
  session part of the variable.

sql/share/errmsg.txt:
  New error ER_VARIABLE_IS_READONLY.

Cache size  is truncated via 32bit ulong  in  ha_init_key_cache() and 
ha_resize_key_cache() 

This change fixes the cast to size_t instead of ulong. This cast is safe,
because key_buffer_size parameter is limited to SIZE_T_MAX

   additional fix - the 'debug' keyword removed

    That's a Win-specific error.
    When we create libmysqld.dll we have many libraries like mysys, dbug,
    strings, etc linked into that dll, so the application built upon
    this library shouldn't link these libraries to itself, rather use
    those inside the dll.

    Fixed by redirecting calls into the libmysqld.dll

		using crashes server

When the server is configured to use a RSA key, and when the client sends
a cipher-suite list that contains a non-RSA key as acceptable, the server 
would try to process that key even though it was impossible.

Now, yaSSL sets its own acceptable-cipher list according to what kind of
key the server is started with, and will never explore and try to pair 
impossible combinations.

This involves a partial import of the current YaSSL tree, not the whole
thing, so as to try to avoid introducing new bugs.

(Updated to avoid many whitespace changes and make diff smaller.)

      GLOBAL STATUS is calculated by studying the list of threads. In the
        embedded server threads were not linked to the internal list, so the
        calculation always returns 0. Fixed by 'linking' the embedded-server
        threads to the same list

The function thd_security_context allocates memory on an unprotected MEM_ROOT if the
message length becomes longer than requested and the initial buffer memory needs to
be reallocated.
                  
This patch fixes the design error by copying parts of the reallocated buffer 
to the destination buffer. This works because the destination buffer isn't
owned by the String object and thus isn't freed when a new buffer is allocated.
Any new memory allocated by the String object is reclaimed when the object
is destroyed at the end of the function call.

            missing after downgrade

Obsolete arc/ directory and view .frm file backup support
has been removed by the patch for bug 17823. However, that
bugfix caused a problem with "live downgrades" of the
server: if we rename some view 4 times under 5.1.29/5.0.72
and then try to rename it under 5.1.28/5.0.70 on the same
database, the server fails with a error:

  query 'RENAME TABLE ... TO ...' failed: 6: Error on
  delete of '....frm-0001' (Errcode: 2)

Also .frm file of that view may be lost (renamed to .frm~).

The server failed because it tried to rename latest 3
backup .frm files renaming the view: the server used an
integer value of the "revision" field of .frm file to
extract those file names. After the fix for bug 17823 those
files were not created/maintained any more, however the
"revision" field was incremented as usual. So, the server
failed renaming non existent files.

This fix solves the problem by removing the support for
"revision" .frm file field:
1. New server silently ignores existent "revision" fields
   in old .frm files and never write it down;
2. Old server assumes, that missing "revision" field in new
   .frm files means default value of 0.
3. Accordingly to the fix for bug 17823 the new server
   drops arc/ directory on alter/rename view, so after
   "live downgrade" old server begins maintenance of the
   arc/ directory from scratch without conflicts with .frm
   files.

when InnoDB frm file corruption

Problem: mysqlcheck runs 'SHOW FULL TABLE' queries to get table lists.
The query may fail for some reasons (e.g. null .frm file) then
mysqlcheck doesn't process the database tables.

Fix: try to run 'SHOW TABLES' if 'SHOW FULL TABLES' failed.


client/mysqlcheck.c:
  Fix for bug#37527: mysqlcheck fails to report entire database 
  when InnoDB frm file corruption
    - run "SHOW TABLES" query if "SHOW /*!50002 FULL*/ TABLES" failed;
    - print error info if both failed.

  Fix for bug#37527: mysqlcheck fails to report entire database 
  when InnoDB frm file corruption
    - test case.

Reordered include files so that no mess will be left if this test is run without InnoDB
Previously, this test would leave a database named 'federated' in such a case and would
cause tests that examined existing databases to fail.
