@item The ISAM table handler --- Stable
This manages storage and retrieval of all data in MySQL Version 3.22
and earlier. In all MySQL releases there hasn't been a single
(reported) bug in this code. The only known way to get a corrupted table
is to kill the server in the middle of an update. Even that is unlikely
to destroy any data beyond rescue, because all data are flushed to disk
between each query. There hasn't been a single bug report about lost data
because of bugs in MySQL.

This is new in MySQL Version 3.23. It's largely based on the ISAM
table code but has a lot of new and very useful features.
@item The parser and lexical analyser --- Stable
There hasn't been a single reported bug in this system for a long time.
@item The C client code --- Stable
No known problems. In early Version 3.20 releases, there were some limitations
in the send/receive buffer size. As of Version 3.21, the buffer size is now
dynamic up to a default of 16M.

The major problem found has been with the @code{fcntl()} call, which is
fixed by using the @w{@code{--skip-locking}} option to
@code{mysqld}. Some people have reported lockup problems with Version 0.5.
LinuxThreads will need to be recompiled if you plan to use
1000+ concurrent connections. Although it is possible to run that many
connections with the default LinuxThreads (however, you will never go
above 1021), the default stack spacing of 2 MB makes the application
unstable, and we have been able to reproduce a coredump after creating
1021 idle connections. @xref{Linux}.
@item Solaris 2.5+ pthreads --- Stable
We use this for all our production work.
@item MIT-pthreads (Other systems) --- Stable
There have been no reported bugs since Version 3.20.15 and no known bugs since
Version 3.20.16. On some systems, there is a ``misfeature'' where some
operations are quite slow (a 1/20 second sleep is done between each query).
Of course, MIT-pthreads may slow down everything a bit, but index-based
@code{SELECT} statements are usually done in one time frame so there shouldn't
be a mutex locking/thread juggling.

The ports to other systems are still very new and may have bugs, possibly
in MySQL, but most often in the thread implementation itself.

Some people thought they had found bugs here, but these usually have
turned out to be misunderstandings. Please check the manual before reporting
problems!

also print the system error code in one of the following styles:

You can find out what the error code means by either examining the
documentation for your system or use the @code{perror} utility.

@node Packet too large, Communication errors, Out of memory, Common errors
@appendixsubsec @code{Packet too large} Error
A communication packet is a single SQL statement sent to the MySQL server
or a single row that is sent to the client.
When a MySQL client or the @code{mysqld} server gets a packet bigger
than @code{max_allowed_packet} bytes, it issues a @code{Packet too large}
error and closes the connection.
If you are using the @code{mysql} client, you may specify a bigger buffer by
starting the client with @code{mysql --set-variable=max_allowed_packet=8M}.
If you are using other clients that do not allow you to specify the maximum
packet size (such as @code{DBI}), you need to set the packet size when you
start the server. You cau use a command-line option to @code{mysqld} to set
@code{max_allowed_packet} to a larger size. For example, if you are
expecting to store the full length of a @code{BLOB} into a table, you'll need
to start the server with the @code{--set-variable=max_allowed_packet=16M}
option.
than @code{max_allowed_packet} bytes, it issues a @code{Packet too
large} error and closes the connection. With some clients, you may also
get @code{Lost connection to MySQL server during query} error if the
communication packet is too big.
Note that both the client and the server has it's own
@code{max_allowed_packet} variable. If you want to handle big packets,
you have to increase this variable both in the client and in the server.
It's safe to increase this variable as memory is only allocated when
needed; This variable is more a precaution to catch wrong packets
between the client/server and also to ensure that you don't accidently
use big packets so that you run out of memory.
If you are using the @code{mysql} client, you may specify a bigger
buffer by starting the client with @code{mysql --set-variable=max_allowed_packet=8M}. Other clients have different methods to set this variable.
You can use the option file to set @code{max_allowed_packet} to a larger
size in @code{mysqld}. For example, if you are expecting to store the
full length of a @code{MEDIUMBLOB} into a table, you'll need to start
the server with the @code{set-variable=max_allowed_packet=16M} option.
You can also get strange problems with large packets if you are using
big blobs, but you haven't given @code{mysqld} access to enough memory
