Renamed is_mysql_comment_start to is_mysql_statement_end because it checks
whether a statement truly ends instead of just checking comment block starts.
The calculations for buffer length in readwritesplit now use the payload size
instead of the buffer size.
The C style comments were not ignored and the -- style comments
did not check for the trailing whitespace and made return values char*.
The creation of a stored procedure would prevent sessions from using
any of the slave servers because readwritesplit would interpret
the creation statement as a multi-statement query.
Parts of modutil and readwritesplit now compare pointers to pointers instead of
converting pointers to integers.
The monitor permission checks didn't use the standard connection timeouts but
used hard-coded values. The config.c tried to connect to the embedded library
but since it is not used by it anymore, it always fails.
MaxScaleUptime() renamed to maxscale_uptime() and moved from
gateway.c (MaxScale main) to misc.c, which is included in the
maxscale_common library. That way the symbol will be available
at link-time and will thus not prevent the use of the linker
flags -Wl,-z,defs (resolve all symbols at link-time) when
linking a module that uses maxscale_uptime().
Due to an include conflict between /usr/include/poll.h and
maxscale/server/include/poll.h the latter was moved to
maxscale/server/include/maxscale/poll.h.
Once 1.4 is out, all maxscale header files will be moved to that
same sub-directory. That will prevent include conflicts and also
make it easy to see which include files belong to maxscale and
which do not.
The default pathname for maxkeys was a hardcoded value and it didn't use
the default directory location functions. If encrypted passwords were used
nothing was written into the log.
The old message logged the function name and thread ID which are not useful
to the end user. The thread ID should only be printed for debugging purposes,
not general error messages.
Both the passwords and temporary files of the embedded library were stored
in the same directory. Now the directories are separated and the embedded
library uses the temporary directory. The datadir cleanup also now only
cleans up the temporary data directory.
The schemarouter checks if the service has this parameter and if it
is not there, it is automatically enabled. The parameter was not
added as a qualified service parameter so the router couldn't see
the parameter as defined even if it was.
The monitor timeouts can now be larger than the monitor interval. This will
allow the combination of low monitoring intervals and large network timeouts.
If a network experiences some periodic lag, it is desirable to allow large
timeout values.
The number of written characters is now checked and should be lower than
compared bytes. The parameters to the dbusers.c query functions are now const
where possible.
Previously the users needed at least SELECT permission on the database level to
be able to connect with a default database through MaxScale. With this change,
the query that retrieves the database users has been changed to also include
table-level grants for users. This will allow users with grants to only some of
the tables in a database to be able to connect through MaxScale with a default
database.
The queries are now created at runtime to allow for a more varied syntax. This
removes the need to have separate query strings for the standard mysql.user
table and for the MySQL 5.7 version of it. In addition to this, the exclusion
of the root user is now done at the same time which removes the need to manually
form the query string.
When a module is unregistered, it must be removed from the list.
Otherwise, if explicit unregistering of a module is made, there
will be a crash at shutdown when all modules are unregistered.
Slist removed from skygw_utils and added as a separate component.
Nobody seems to be using it, so it could also simply be removed.
Left in place for the time being.
Shutting down monitors is not supposed to be done ofter so there is no true
benefit from keeping the connections open. With the refactoring of the monitor
interface, this can be done in a centralized place.
The FindMariaDBConnector.cmake file now checks if the found library actually is
the MariaDB Connector-C library. If the found library is not the MariaDB
Connector-C, it will be built from source.
The include directories previously used by MaxScale were from the embedded
library. All parts of MaxScale apart from the query classifier now use
the client libraries.
Since maxscale-common is linked to the connector-c library
and no longer to the MySql embedded library, mysql_library_init
does not need any parameters.
There can be any sort of library behind qc_init. Hence the arguments
cannot be hardwired to be like the embedded library wants them.
Eventually it might make sense to allow passing arguments from
maxscale.cnf.
Now, qc_mysqlembedded is linked against MySQL's embedded library,
and MaxScale itself against Connector-C.
So, in order to build MaxScale, Connector-C must be installed.
This has been tested with Connector-C 2.2.1.
The build variable MYSQLCLIENT_LIBRARIES is no longer used.
The query_classifier library is now only a wrapper that loads an
actual query classifier implementation. Currently it is hardwired
to load qc_mysqlembedded, which implements the query classifier
API using MySQL embedded.
This will be changed, so that the library to load is specified
when qc_init() is called. That will then allow the query classifier
to be specified in the config file.
Currently there seems to be a conflict between the mysql_library_end()
call made in qc_mysqlembedded and the mysql_library_end() call made in
gateway.c. The reason is that they both finalize a shared library.
For the time being mysql_library_end() is not called in gateway.c.
This problem is likely to go away by switching from the client
library to the connector-c library.

Earlier the same (or almost the same) code was duplicated in
several places.
A conflicting declaration was also removed. There was no
implementation for that declaration.
The polling statistics collection used atomic_add to increment values. This
is not an optimal way to update statistical values. Moved to per thread
values which are summed up when they are read.
Moved the functions used to gather polling statistics to their own file and
created a specific data type for statistics.
The THREAD type was not used everywhere and pthread_t was used instead.
The thread creation function also returned the address of a stack allocated
value which isn't guaranteed to be usable.
