The DCB callbacks shouldn't be used to send more events as they cause the
callback to be called recursively. The recursive calls caused rows to be
sent before the schemas for the rows were sent. Queuing the events via the
worker mechanism prevents this.
Took the Replicator into use in avrorouter as an alternative to the
binlogrouter based setup. This also allows the avrorouter to automatically
handle master failovers and to start replication from GTID coordinates.
Repurposed the Replicator from the CDC integration project as a
replication event processing service. It is similar to the CDC version of
the Replicator and is still in the same namespace but it lacks all of the
cross-thread communication that was a part of the integration project.
Replaces uses of config_get_param() in modules either with contains()
or get_string(). The config_get_param() is moved to internal headers,
as it allows seeing inside a config setting.
The NULL values were not stored as NULL Avro values due to the fact that
the file format has no native NULL-ness for the basic types. To solve
this, all values must be stored as a union that contains the actual type
as well as the null type.
Unions were not implemented in the maxavro library but implementing means
simply recursing one level down.
If the query statement is wrongly treated as a table creation statement it
could cause a crash. To handle this, unknown SQL is now reported and the
processing is stopped early. This does not solve the root cause of the
problem but makes it possible to detect it in the future.
The admin files are now created with 640 permissions and automatically
created directories now properly set the permissions for the group as
well. All files and directories created by avrorouter and binlogrouter
also now correctly limit the read and write permissions only to the owner
and the group.
Replaced SPINLOCK with std::mutex where possible, leaving out the more
complex cases. The big offenders remaining are the binlogrouter and the
gateway.cc OpenSSL locks.
