modutil_get_complete_packets was assuming that at least 3 bytes of each packet
is available. This results in an out-of-bounds read if less than 3 bytes of data
for a partial result set is available.
The earlier log file based approach for enabling and disabling
messages has now been completely replaced with the syslog priority
based approach.
Similarly as with log files before it is now possible to enable
and disable a log priority for a particular session, even though
it apparently has not been used much.
The local test-programs of the logging has got minimal attention
only to make them compile. They should get an overhaul as they did
not work before either.
Maxadmin earlier gave the impression that you could change whether
messages for different log files could be specifically enabled for
a session. In practice that was true only for trace messages as the
session id and the bitmask telling what logfiles are enabled, were
copied to thread local storage only as far as trace messages were
concered.
The code for setting that information in place is quit short and
efficient, so there is really no reason not to do that always.
This also means that it always will be possible to get your hands
on the session object if there is a need for that.
The code used in the query classifier was not compatible with 10.1 version
of MariaDB and needed to be fine tuned in order for it to work with all
supported versions of MariaDB.
The regular expression used when cleaning multiline configuration parameters
didn't match trailing backslash characters in pathnames. This caused them to be
added to the next line causing a possible error.
Since localtime is not thread-safe it should not be used in multithreaded
contexts. For this reason all calls to localtime were changed to localtime_r
in code where concurrency issues were possible.
Internal tests were left unchanged because they aren't multithreaded.
Claiming that the loading of maxscale.cnf failed in case of any
error was misleading. Maxscale may not succeed in opening it,
reading it or processing it.
Use of skygw_log_write() in ss_dassert and ss_info_dassert replaced
with the use of MXS_ERROR(). In addition, ss_dassert and ss_info_dassert
are now expressions that require a trailing ;.
The log message was labeled as a warning instead of an error and finding out
the real reason why MaxScale didn't start when a filter wasn't found was difficult.
When a filter module is not found or the instance creation fails, this is considered
a fatal error and MaxScale will not start. If a failure occurs when the configuration
is being reloaded, the service will not use filters and an error will be logged.
The bundled PCRE2 library will be built as a separate target and configuring
CMake no longer builds it. Instead, it will only be built when it is out of date.
This requires all targets to declare that they depend on the pcre2 target in
order for it to be built.
Previously filter instances were created when the first session was made. This
caused filter configuration errors to be noticed only after MaxScale was successfully
started. Now filters are loaded and the instance is created when a service applies its filters.
LOGIF and skygw_write_log removed from server/core/*.c and
replaced with calls to MXS_(ERROR|WARNING|NOTICE|INFO|DEBUG).
This is a mechanism change, no updating of the actual message
has been performed.
Currently this causes a very small performance hit, since the
check whether the priority is enabled or not is performed in
the function that is called and not before the function is called.
Once all LOGIFs and skygw_write_logs have been replaced, the
behaviour will be altered back to what it was.
skygw_[enable|disable]_log has now been removed from the external
interface and priorities must instead be set using
mxs_log_set_priority_enabled(int priority, bool enabled). A bitmask
is already being updated, but internally and as used by the LOG_IF
macros, the actual enabling is still made using logfile ids.
The configuration entries have been replaced as follows:
log_messages -> log_notice
log_trace -> log_info
The old ones can be used, but cause a warning to be logged.
Similarily the maxadmin commands have been updated.
"[enable|disable] log ..." works as expected, but there will be
a message about it being deprecated. Instead there is now a
[enable|disable] log-priority err|warning|notice|info|debug
command that should be used instead.
skygw_logmanager_init renamed to mxs_log_init and skygw_logmanager_done
renamed to mxs_log_finish. skygw_logmanager_exit removed alltogether as
all it did was to call skygw_logmanager_done. That appears to have been
a source for confusion as in many places a call to skygw_logmanager_done
was followed by a call to skygw_logmanager_exit. In addition, the function
skygw_log_done was removed from the header, since it lacked an
implementation.
The change to the mysql.user table in MySQL 5.7 caused MaxScale to stop
working with it. This commit adds functionality that checks which version of
the user data query should be made. It also moves common code related to
server version strings to server.c
With only one log-file no arguments are needed. The maxadmin command
'flush log' still accepts all the previous arguments, but warns about
them being deprecated.
