As the function documentation states, the expected value must be read
again after a call to atomic_cas_ptr. This is due to the fact that if the
values are not the same, the __atomic builtin version will store the
current value into the expected value.
The new value given to the atomic_cas_ptr function was the address of the
new value, not the new value itself. The behavior of the atomic_cas_ptr is
what caused the test to pass on systeems that implement the __atomic
builtins. On older systems that do not implement it, the expected value
was never modified which caused the test to hang.
The monitor will now also create the database if it is missing. Since it
already creates the table, also creating the database is not a large
addition.
Cleaned up some of the related checking code and combined them into a
simple utility function.
As you can create regular expressions that have a fixed length,
e.g. "....$", it makes perfect sense to replace using 'value' if
the length of the string matches exactly.
The sprintf calls failed due to a warning about possible buffer
overflow. Curiously enough, the same warnings do appear on Fedora 26 but
only when the calls are changed to snprintf.
The config parameter 'newline_replacement' (defaults to 1 space " ") now defines
what to write to the log file when the sql-query has a newline sequence (\n, \r or
\r\n). If 'newline_replacement' is the empty string "", no replacing is done and
newlines are printed to file.
Also, adds the config parameter 'separator', which defines the string
printed between elements. Default value is ",".
DECIMAL types that were larger than 8 bytes were not handled
correctly. The current implementation only prints the lowest 8 bytes of
the integer part of the decimal.
The warning that a schema already exists is obsolete as mapped tables are
now always opened instead of being reused. This causes the schema checks
to be done for each mapped table.
Updated links and module names in the configuration. Also changed object
names so that they don't produce warnings. Removed redundant parameters
and tuned default monitor_interval to a slightly more reasonable 2000
milliseconds. Enabled automatic thread number configuration.
The output generated by a failed call to a module command was previously
overwritten with the error messages stored in the module command
subsystem.
In the case of a failure, the proper procedure is to check if the output
generated by the module command conforms to the JSON API error
specification and if it does, combine it with any system generated error
messages. If the output does not conform, it is stored in the "meta" field
of the returned object. This allows all of the generated output to be
saved.
