Thread-safe version of strerror; thread local buffer used for storing
the message. The performance penalty of a thread local buffer is not
likely to be significant, since this is only called in an error
situation that anyway is likely to interrupt the normal processing.
The SQLite database is now always created on disk. This will remove the
need to dump the database users from the in-memory database to the
persisted on-disk database.
This change will also make the authentication compatible with older SQLite
implementations which lack the URI-based database strings found in newer
versions.
The allocation of the thread_data that is populated by the polling
mechanism must now succeed, or the process will exit. It's very
unlikely it would ever fail and it is unlikely MaxScale could would
function if it it did fail. Consequently, checks for its validity,
which anyway weren't done correctly everywhere, could be removed.
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'SERVER_UUID' and SET @slave_uuid are meant only
for MySQL 5.6/7 master registration.
If MariaDB 10 compatibility is set then skip these useless requests.
Added a section to the release notes that tells the fact that the
readwritesplit, schemarouter and binlogrouter now also accept the values
of router_options as parameters.
NullFilter is a filter module that does nothing, except reports
capabilities as defined in the configuration file. It's purpose
is only to make it simple to benchmark the performance impact
various routing capabilities have.
Note that since getCapabilities() currently does *not* take an
instance pointer as parameter, all NullFilter instances will
report the same capabilities, the ones specified for the last
filter to have been loaded.
- Add note about filters having become available in 2.1.
- Add insertstream to release notes and change log.
- Add complete example to cache documentation.
Removed unused spinlocks from DCBs, sessions and the MySQL protocol
structs. They were used in a context where only one thread has access to
the structure.
Removed unused member variables from DCBs.
The use of monitors in services isn't complete but this was not in the
documentation. A more complete solution should be done at a later date and
the current documentation should be removed.
The debug assertion assumes that the table definition is always in the
binlogs. If a binlog row event without a table definition is read, debug
versions would crash even though the situation is acceptable and expected.
The authenticators should have a similar way to print diagnostic
information as filter and routers do. This allows the authenticators to
print the users in their own format.
In the future, all the diagnostic entry points should be changed so that
they return a structure that contains the information in a standard
form. This information can then be formatted in different ways by other
modules.
MariaDB and others match grants first by exact hostname/IP and then by
wildcard. If there are no exact matches, the wildcard grant should be
picked. This can be tested by having different passwords for localhost and
remote address.
The SQLite based authentication should first check for an exact match and
then only after that should it try to match the hostname to a wildcard
grant.
The get_users function now combines the functionality of the old get_users
and get_all_users. This removes large parts of similar code.
Removed the listener resources as MySQLAuth was the only one that used it.
The user data is now stored inside a SQLite3 database. By storing the data
inside a database, we remove the restriction that the previous hashtable
based implementation had.
Currently the only situation where a user needs to be authenticated after
the initial authentication is when a COM_CHANGE_USER is being
executed. This was previously handled by directly calling a function in
the MySQLAuth authenticator.
The new entry in the API of the authenticators is very specific to MySQL
and should be reviewed once other protocols are added.
In a configuration with multiple services, one with connection_timeout and
others without it, the connections to non-connection_timeout services
would get immediately closed due to integer overflow.
The backtick was copied to the field name and converted to an underscore
when the name was transformed into a valid Avro identifier. This caused
one extra character to appear in the field name in the Avro schema files.
