      Bug#18775 - Temporary table from alter table visible to other threads · 8e4c36ad
      ingo/istruewing@chilla.local authored
      Continued implementation of WL#1324 (table name to filename encoding)
      
      The intermediate (not temporary) files of the new table
      during ALTER TABLE was visible for SHOW TABLES. These
      intermediate files are copies of the original table with
      the changes done by ALTER TABLE. After all the data is
      copied over from the original table, these files are renamed 
      to the original tables file names. So they are not temporary 
      files. They persist after ALTER TABLE, but just with another 
      name.
      
      In 5.0 the intermediate files are invisible for SHOW TABLES
      because all file names beginning with "#sql" were suppressed.
      
      This failed since 5.1.6 because even temporary table names were
      converted when making file names from them. The prefix became
      converted to "@0023sql". Converting the prefix during SHOW TABLES
      would suppress the listing of user tables that start with "#sql".
      
      The solution of the problem is to continue the implementation of
      the table name to file name conversion feature. One requirement
      is to suppress the conversion for temporary table names.
      
      This change is straightforward for real temporary tables as there
      is a function that creates temporary file names.
      
      But the generated path names are located in TMPDIR and have no
      relation to the internal table name. This cannot be used for
      ALTER TABLE. Its intermediate files need to be in the same
      directory as the old table files. And it is necessary to be
      able to deduce the same path from the same table name repeatedly.
      
      Consequently the intermediate table files must be handled like normal
      tables. Their internal names shall start with tmp_file_prefix
      (#sql) and they shall not be converted like normal table names.
      
      I added a flags parameter to all relevant functions that are
      called from ALTER TABLE. It is used to suppress the conversion
      for the intermediate table files.
      
      The outcome is that the suppression of #sql in SHOW TABLES
      works again. It does not suppress user tables as these are
      converted to @0023sql on file level.
      
      This patch does also fix ALTER TABLE ... RENAME, which could not 
      rename a table with non-ASCII characters in its name.
      
      It does also fix the problem that a user could create a table like
      `#sql-xxxx-yyyy`, where xxxx is mysqld's pid and yyyy is the thread
      ID of some other thread, which prevented this thread from running 
      ALTER TABLE.
      
      Some of the above problems are mentioned in Bug 1405, which can
      be closed with this patch.
      
      This patch does also contain some minor fixes for other forgotten
      conversions. Still known problems are reported as bugs 21370,
      21373, and 21387.
