MySQL源代码阅读笔记:代码流程


代码分析基于最新的5.5.21

Mysql服务器的main()在/sql/main.cc,实际的入口点在/sql/mysqld.cc。

我们直接从mysqld_main()开始阅读。

先理解一些比较重要的宏定义:

(1)宏HAVE_NPTL:

这个宏如果打开了会去读一个系统变量LD_ASSUME_KERNEL,并把他赋给一个全局变量ld_assume_kernel_is_set,这个系统变量设置了系统线程的实现模型。linux内核在2.6版本后,缺省的线程模型是NPTL。

    详细情况请阅读我博客里的这篇文章。

对于以HAVE_前缀的的宏,另有如下文章阐述:

  这里介绍了CMake的相关知识,通过CMake在影子编译目录的include目录里面生成了my_config.h文件。

my_config.h文件通过my_global.h文件包含到具体的需要使用HAVE_前缀的宏的源文件中。

(2)EMBEDDED_LIBRARY

该宏用于控制  嵌入式库和客户端/服务器版本不同的那部分代码。

Mysql 可以编译为一个libmysqld库(嵌入式服务器),使用嵌入式MySQL服务器库,能够在客户端应用程序中使用具备全部特性的MySQL服务器。

主要优点在于,增加了速度,并使得嵌入式应用程序的管理更简单。嵌入式服务器库是以MySQL的客户端/服务器版本为基础的,采用C/C++语言编写。 其结果是嵌入式服务器也是用C/C++语言编写的。 在其他语言中,嵌入式服务器不可用。

这个宏可以通过CMake配置,

-DWITH_EMBEDDED_SERVER=1 打开这个宏

在plug.cmake函数里有它的定义:

PROPERTIES COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "MYSQL_SERVER;EMBEDDED_LIBRARY")

整个代码的流程如下:我们讲分更细的文章详细介绍每部分:

Use this folder for compilation and linking.
/client The MySQL command-line client tool.
/dbug Utilities for use in debugging (see Chapter 5 for more details).
/Docs Documentation for the current release. Linux users should usegenerate-text-files.pl in the support subfolder to generate the documentation. Windows users are provided with a manual.chm file.
/include The base system include files and headers.
