[Maria-developers] Selecting Blob by parts (suppose select 10 to 100 char from blob )
by Sachin Setiya 12 Jul '18

12 Jul '18

Hello everyone! On optimizer call (11-7-2018) it was discussed , instead of selecting the whole blob , sometime we just need to select the subpart of it. And we should extend handler/engine api to facilitate this. Although this looks like a interesting idea , Serg (and I ) did not understand why we need this , what is use case of it. Some use case which I think can be like optimizing substring SELECT SUBSTRING(blob_col, 4,4) FROM t1; And we can push down this SUBSTRING condition directly to storage engine. But apart from this what use case this have ? -- Regards Sachin Setiya Software Engineer at MariaDB

[Maria-developers] What can MariaDB developers learn from Debian and Ubuntu Quality Assurance systems?
by Otto Kekäläinen 11 Jul '18

11 Jul '18

Hello! I had the presentation with the title in the subject line at the developers unconference some weeks ago. The slides are available here: https://mariadb.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/2018-06-27-mariadb-dev-learn… I recommend all developers skim though them. Debian has some really nice QA systems. All presentations from the event can be found at: https://mariadb.org/tampere-mariadb-developers-unconference-reportback-pres…

As far as i can see they plainly run > mysql_install_db --user=.. under root. could you please test with rpm and deb too? should only take 10-20 minutes in a buildbot VM. ok to push after that (if all goes well :)) Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB and security(a)mariadb.org

I mean, a test woud be to install from a tarball and run mysql_install_db or install from rpm or deb (they run the install script automatically) and then check that all permissions are correct. Also, I suspect that at additional chown root "$pamtooldir/auth_pam_tool_dir/auth_pam_tool could also be useful here. But not when the script is running in the builddir.

Two comments: minor: you can combine two chmods on auth_pam_tool in one, like u=rwxs major: you still need to make auth_pam_tool_dir to be owned by mysql user. I'm afraid the only way to do it is from a post-install scriptlet or from mysql_install_db. Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB and security(a)mariadb.org

I think if you wait_for_prior_commit() also for secondary key case, you should definitely restrict it to be only for conservative parallel replication, not for optimistic/agressive. Using a secondary key seems generally fine (as opposed to full table scan), and this problem should affect only conservative mode, no need to penalise optimistic/aggressive. (But maybe that is what is meant with "DRAFT"). - Kristian.

Hi, Sergey! > Current status is: all staging builders pass, except for Ubuntu Precise. But we no longer build on precise, do we? Any followup MDEVs after this one is pushed?
