Hi! InnoDB is a MySQL table type which supports transactions, foreign key constraints, and a non-free hot backup tool.
Version 3.23.55 is a bugfix release of the stable 3.23 branch, which is recommended for production use. Users who have had concurrency problems in INSERT INTO ... SELECT ... FROM t2 ... may benefit from the removing of the MySQL table lock on t2. If you have configured the combined log size > 2 GB in a 32-bit computer, you should upgrade because a major bug has been fixed in this version. For more information, please see http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html. The full changelog: * In the SQL command INSERT INTO t1 SELECT ... FROM t2 WHERE ... MySQL previously set a table level read lock on t2. This lock is now removed. * Fixed a bug: if the combined size of InnoDB log files was >= 2 GB in a 32-bit computer, InnoDB would write log in a wrong position. That could make crash recovery and InnoDB Hot Backup to fail in log scan. * Fixed a bug: index cursor restoration could theoretically fail. * Fixed a bug: an assertion in btr0sea.c, in function btr_search_info_update_slow could theoretically fail in a race of 3 threads. * Fixed a bug: purge could cause a hang in a BLOB table where the primary key index tree was of height 1. Symptom: semaphore waits caused by an X-latch set in btr_free_externally_stored_field(). * Fixed a bug: if MySQL estimated a query in the middle of a SELECT statement, InnoDB could hang on the adaptive hash index latch in btr0sea.c. * Fixed a bug: InnoDB could report table corruption and assert in page_dir_find_owner_slot() if an adaptive hash index search coincided with purge or an insert. * Fixed a bug: some file system snapshot tool in Windows 2000 could cause an InnoDB file write to fail with error 33 ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION. In synchronous writes InnoDB now retries the write 100 times at 1 second intervals. * An outstanding bug: SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 is not replicated properly in the MySQL replication. The fix will appear in 4.0.11 and will probably not be backported to 3.23.
