Problem: in 5.0 'check table for upgrade' doesn't detect
incompatible collation changes made in 5.0.48.

Fix: backport #39585 fix to 5.0

Altering how MTR checks global variable status to exclude timestamp
Changed SQL statements to update style.

ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY

The check for non-aggregated columns in queries with aggregate function, but without
GROUP BY was treating all the parts of the query as if they are in the SELECT list.
Fixed by ignoring the non-aggregated fields in the WHERE clause.

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

returns truncated results

Problem: performig conversion from {INT, DECIMAL, REAL} to CHAR
we incorrectly set its max length in some cases that may lead
to truncated results returned.

Fix: properly set CONVERT({INT, DECIMAL, REAL}, CHAR) result's
max length.

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).

The test itself is not faulty. The testcase timeout
problem happens if this IMHO mid size resource
(space in vardir, virtual memory, amount of disk I/O)
consuming test meets a weak (excessive disk I/O caused
by parallel applications or paging) testing box.

The modifications:
- Move the most time and disk I/O consuming subtest
  for Bug 1820 into its own script (multi_update2)
  This will reduce the likelihood that we exceed the
  testcase timeout.
- Replace error numbers with error names
- Minor improvements of the formatting

Item_func_div didn't calculate the precision of the result properly.
  The result of 5/0.0001 is 5000 so we have to add decimals of the divisor
  to the planned precision.

            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.

tables can cause server to crash!

The bug will be fixed by patch for #34779: "crash in checksum table
on federated tables with blobs containing nulls"

Only a test case commited.

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.

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.

issue 'The storage engine for the table doesn't support check' note for I_S tables

With fix for bug 25951 index hints are ignored for fulltext
searches, as handling of fulltext indexes is different from
handling regular indexes. Meaning it is not possible to
implement true index hints support for fulltext indexes within
the scope of current fulltext architecture.

The problem is that prior to fix for bug 25951, some useful
index hints still could be given for boolean mode searches.

This patch implements special index hints support for fulltext
indexes with the following characteristics:
- all index hints are still ignored for NLQ mode searches -
  it cannot work without an index;
- for 5.1 and up index hints FOR ORDER BY and FOR GROUP BY are
  still ignored for fulltext indexes;
- boolean mode searches honor USE/FORCE/IGNORE INDEX hints;
- as opposed to index hints for regular indexes, index hints
  for fulltext BOOLEAN mode searches affect the usage of the
  index for the whole query.

japanese characters.

Fix - removed obsolvete setlocale from my_init.c . In MBCS 
environments it caused unwanted character-to-byte translations
in fputc()  in client code and wrong output as result.

Prevent this by modifying CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.

implicit command which isn't completed immediately.

A string buffers which were included in the 'view' data structure
were allocated on the stack, causing an invalid pointer when used
after the function returned.
The fix: use copy of values for view->md5 & view->queries

1. Replace --sleep by wait_* primitive
2. Vertical output for SHOW SLAVE STATUS
3. Updated result file

- Make send_row_on_empty_set() return FALSE when simplify_cond() has found out
  that HAVING is always FALSE
re-committing to put the fix into 5.0 and 5.1

Visual Studio 2008 Express edition does not include message compiler mc.exe
It is not possible to build MySQL server if only VC2008 Express is installed,
because we use mc.exe to generate event log messages.

This patch removes the mc.exe dependency. Generated files message.h, 
message.rc and MSG00001.bin  are checked into source code repository.
Instructions on how to add or change messages are added to messages.mc

The problem was that the server did not robustly handle a
unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (RM)
due to a resource deadlock within the transaction branch.
By not acknowledging the roll back, the server (TM) would
eventually corrupt the XA transaction state and crash.

The solution is to mark the transaction as rollback-only
if the RM indicates that it rolled back its branch of the
transaction.
