long shared-memory-base-names could overflow a static internal buffer and thus crash mysqld and various clients. change both to dynamic buffers, show everything but overflowing those buffers still works. The test case for this would pretty much amount to mysqld --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX --shared-memory=1 & mysqladmin --no-defaults --shared-memory-base-name=HeyMrBaseNameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX shutdown Unfortunately, we can't just use an .opt file for the server. The .opt file is used at start-up, before any include in the actual test can tell mysqltest to skip this one on non-Windows. As a result, such a test would break on unices. Fixing mysql-test-run.pl to export full path for master and slave would enable us to start a server from within the test which is ugly and, what's more, doesn't work as the server blocks (mysqltest offers no fire-and-forget fork-and-exec), and mysqladmin never gets run. Making the test rpl_windows_shm or some such so we can is beyond ugly. As is introducing another file-name based special case (run "win*.test" only when on Windows). As is (yuck) coding half the test into mtr (as in, having it hand out a customized environment conductive to the shm- thing on Win only). Situation is exacerbated by the fact that .sh is not necessary run as expected on Win. In short, it's just not worth it. No test-case until we have a new-and-improved test framework.
