The different server monitoring functions all did similar work and
combining them into one function makes the whole process of monitoring a
server simpler.
If a relay master server is found in the replication tree, it should not
get the master status. Previously all master servers were assigned the
master status regardless of their depth in the replication tree.
By comparing the depth value of each potential master, the monitor can
find the right master at the root of the replication tree.
The mysqlmon now supports proper detection of multi-master topologies by
building a directed graph out of the monitored server. If cycles are found from
this graph, they are assigned a master group ID. All servers with a positive
master group ID will receive the Master status unless they have `@@read_only`
enabled.
This new functionality can be enabled with the 'multimaster' boolean
parameter.
Mysqlmon now stores the values of read_only, slave_sql_running,
slave_io_running, the name and position of the masters binlog and the
replication configuration status of the slave.
This allows more detailed server information to be displayed with the
`show monitor <name>` diagnostic interface. In addition to this, the new
structure used to store them provides an easy way to store information
that is specific to a monitor and the servers it monitors.
These new status variables can be used to implement better multi-master
detection in mysqlmon by using the value of read_only to resolve
situations where multiple master candidates are available.
Each monitor module now resides in a subdirectory of its own.
The name of the subdirectory is the same as the name of the
library in the module's CMakeLists.txt file.
