n_child_sum_items kept increasing.
Since it is used for calculating the size of ref_pointer_array,
we will allocate larger and larger chunks of memory, until we hit some
operating system limit.
The memory is free()d at disconnect, but is most likely *not*
returned to the operating system.

TRANSACTION ROLLBACK

Description:  During the rollback operation, a blob page 
is removed earlier than desired.  Consider following scenario:

1. create table t1(a int primary key,b blob) engine=innodb;
2. insert into t1 values (1,repeat('b',9000));
3. begin;
4. update t1 set b=concat(b,'b');
5. update t1 set a=a+1;
6. insert into t1 values (1,repeat('b',9000));
7. rollback;

The update operation in line 5 produces 2 undo log record. The first
undo record (TRX_UNDO_DEL_MARK_REC) goes to trx->update_undo and the
second undo record (TRX_UNDO_INSERT_REC) goes to trx->insert_undo.
During rollback, they are executed out of order.

When the undo record TRX_UNDO_DEL_MARK_REC is applied/executed,
the blob ownership is also reset.  Because of this the blob page
is released earlier than desired.  This blob page must have been
freed only as part of applying/executing the undo record
TRX_UNDO_INSERT_REC.

This problem can be avoided by executing the undo records in
order.  This patch will make innodb to execute the undo records
in order.

I noticed other tests are skipped because of no ucs2
main.mix2_myisam_ucs2                    [ skipped ]  Test requires:'

Should main.loaddata be skipped if there is no ucs2

How To Repeat:

the failing piece of the test should be moved from mysql-test/t/loaddata.test to

When a client connects to a MySQL server, first a THD object is created.
If there are any idle server threads waiting, the THD object is then added
to a list and a server thread is woken up. This thread then retrieves the 
THD object from the list and starts executing.

The problem was that this list of THD objects waiting for a server thread,
was not working in a FIFO fashion, but rather LIFO. This is unfair, as it means
that the last THD added (=last client connected) will be assigned a  server 
thread first.

Note however that for this to be a problem, several clients must be able
to connect and have THD objects constructed before any server threads
manages to be woken up. This is not a very likely scenario.

This patch fixes the problem by changing the THD list to work FIFO
rather than LIFO.

This is the 5.1/5.5 version of the patch.

BACKGROUND:
In certain situations DROP USER fails to remove all privileges
belonging to user being dropped from in-memory structures.
Current workaround is to do DROP USER twice in scenario below
OR doing FLUSH PRIVILEGES after doing DROP USER.

ANALYSIS:
In MySQL, When we grant some stored routines privileges to a
user they are stored in their respective hash.
When doing DROP USER all the stored routine privilege entries
associated with that user has to be deleted from its respective 
hash.
The root cause for this bug is some entries from the hash
are not getting deleted. 
The problem is that code that deletes entries from the hash tries
to do so while iterating over it, without taking enough measures
to address the fact that such deletion can reshuffle elements in 
the hash. If the user/administrator creates the same user again 
he is thrown an  error 'Error 1396 ER_CANNOT_USER' from MySQL.
This prompts the user to either do FLUSH PRIVILEGES or do DROP USER 
again. This behaviour is not desirable as it is a workaround and
does not solves the problem mentioned above.

FIX:
This bug is fixed by introducing a dynamic array to store the 
pointersto all stored routine privilege objects that either have
to be deleted or updated. This is done in 3 steps.
Step 1: Fetching the element from the hash and checking whether 
it is to be deleted or updated.
Step 2: Storing the pointer to that privilege object in dynamic array.
Step 3: Traversing the dynamic array to perform the appropriate action 
either delete or update.
This is a much cleaner way to delete or update the privilege entries 
associated with some user and solves the problem mentioned above.
Also the code has been refactored a bit by introducing an enum
instead of hard coded numbers used for respective dynamic arrays 
and hashes in handle_grant_struct() function.

QUOTING IN REPLICATION 

Problem: Misquoting or unquoted identifiers may lead to
incorrect statements to be logged to the binary log.

Fix: we use specialized functions to append quoted identifiers in
the statements generated by the server.

WHEN DBNAME CONTAINS MULTIPLE QUOTES

MySQL client's USE command might fail if the
database name contains multiple quotes (backticks).

The reason behind the failure being the method
that client uses to remove/escape the quotes
while parsing the USE command's option (dbname),
where the option parsing might terminate if a
matching quote is found.

Also, C-APIs like mysql_select_db() expect a
normalized dbname. Now, in certain cases, client
might fail to normalize dbname similar to that of
server and hence mysql_select_db() would fail.

Fixed by getting the normalized dbname (indirectly)
from the server by directly sending the "USE dbanme"
as query to the server followed by a "SELECT DATABASE()".
The above steps are only performed if number of quotes
in the dbname is greater than 2. Once the normalized
dbname is received, the original db is restored.

Delete-mark change buffer records when resorting to a pessimistic
delete from the change buffer B-tree. Skip delete-marked records in
the change buffer merge and when estimating whether an operation can
be buffered. Without this fix, we could try to apply the same buffered
changes multiple times if the server was killed at the right moment.

In MySQL 5.5 and later: ibuf_get_volume_buffered_count_func(): Ignore
delete-marked (already processed) records.

ibuf_delete_rec(): Add a crash point before optimistic delete. If the
optimistic delete fails, flag the record processed before
mtr_commit().

ibuf_merge_or_delete_for_page(): Ignore delete-marked (already
processed) records.

Backport to 5.1: Rename btr_cur_del_unmark_for_ibuf() to
btr_cur_set_deleted_flag_for_ibuf() and add a parameter.

              INC_HOST_ERRORS() IS CALLED.

Issue       : Sequence of calling inc_host_errors()
              and reset_host_errors() required some
              changes in order to maintain correct
              connection error count.

Solution    : Call to reset_host_errors() is shifted
              to a location after which no calls to
              inc_host_errors() are made.

page_zip_validate(), page_zip_validate_low(): Add a parameter for the
B-tree index.

page_zip_validate_low(): If the page contents does not match, check
that the record link chains match. Furthermore, if dict_index_t is
passed, check that the records match. (This reduces coverage a bit: if
index=NULL, we will ignore differences in record contents, that is,
the page payload.)

Problem:
=======

trx_data->empty() assert happens at `binlog_close_connection'

Analysis:
========

trx_data->empty() function checks for no pending events
and the transaction cache to be empty.This function returns
"true" if no pending events are present and cache is empty.
Otherwise it returns false. `binlog_close_connection' call
expects the above function to return true. But if the
return value is false then assert is raised.

This bug was reproducible in a diskfull scenario. In this
disk full scenario try to do an insert operation so that
a new pending event is created and flushing this pending
event fails. Due to this failure the server goes down
and invokes `binlog_close_connection' for clean closure.
Since the pending event still remains the assert is caused.
This assert is caused only in non transactional databases.


Fix:
===

In a disk full scenario when the insertion fails the
transaction is rolled back and `binlog_end_trans`
is called to flush the pending events. But flush operation
fails as the disk is full and the function simply returns
`1' without taking any action to delete the pending event.

This leaves the event to remain till the closure of
connection.  `delete pending' statement has been added to 
do the required clean up action.

sql/log.cc:
  Added "delete pending" statement to clean pending event

to be successfully compiled (!) thanks to names coincidence:
the arg to User_var method and its member.

Fixed with correcting the typo.

THOUGH IT IS NOT.

The following error message is misleading because it claims 
that the BLOB space is not counted.  

"ERROR 1118 (42000): Row size too large. The maximum row size for 
the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 8126. You have to 
change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs"

When the ROW_FORMAT=compact or ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT is used,
the BLOB prefix is stored inline along with the row.  So 
the above error message is changed as follows depending on
the row format used:

For ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED or ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC, the error
message is as follows:

"ERROR 42000: Row size too large (> 8126). Changing some
columns to TEXT or BLOB may help. In current row format, 
BLOB prefix of 0 bytes is stored inline."

For ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT, the error
message is as follows:

"ERROR 42000: Row size too large (> 8126). Changing some
columns to TEXT or BLOB or using ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC or 
ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED may help. In current row
format, BLOB prefix of 768 bytes is stored inline."

HEURISTICS FOR COMPRESSED PAGE SIZE

The fix of Bug#12845774 was supposed to skip known-to-fail
btr_cur_optimistic_insert() calls. There was only one such call, in
btr_cur_pessimistic_update(). All other callers of
btr_cur_pessimistic_insert() would release and reacquire the B-tree
page latch before attempting the pessimistic insert. This would allow
other threads to restructure the B-tree, allowing (and requiring) the
insert to succeed as an optimistic (single-page) operation.

Failure to attempt an optimistic insert before a pessimistic one would
trigger an attempt to split an empty page.

pre-push fix, removed unused variable.

Additional patch to remove the part_id -> ref_buffer offset.

The partitioning id and the associate record buffer can
be found without having to calculate it.

By initializing it for each used partition, and then reuse
the key-buffer from the queue, it is not needed to have
such map.

Facebook got a case where the page compresses really well so that
btr_cur_optimistic_update() returns DB_UNDERFLOW, but when a record
gets updated, the compression rate radically changes so that
btr_cur_insert_if_possible() can not insert in place despite
reorganizing/recompressing the page, leading to the assertion failing.

COMPRESSED PAGE SIZE

This was submitted as MySQL Bug 61456 and a patch provided by
Facebook. This patch follows the same idea, but instead of adding a
parameter to btr_cur_pessimistic_insert(), we simply remove the
btr_cur_optimistic_insert() call there and add it to the only caller
that needs it.

btr_cur_pessimistic_insert(): Do not try btr_cur_optimistic_insert().

btr_insert_on_non_leaf_level_func(): Invoke btr_cur_optimistic_insert()
before invoking btr_cur_pessimistic_insert().

btr_cur_pessimistic_update(): Clarify in a comment why it is not
necessary to invoke btr_cur_optimistic_insert().

btr_root_raise_and_insert(): Assert that the root page is not empty.
This could happen if a pessimistic insert (involving a split or merge)
is performed without first attempting an optimistic (intra-page) insert.
