Bug #21855	Compilation error in ha_innodb.cc

Category:	MySQL Server: Compiling	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.1 BK	OS:	Linux (Linux)
Assigned to:	Magnus Blåudd	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
A BK pull of 5.1 taken this afternoon exhibits the following compilation error:

In file included from ha_innodb.cc:113:
../storage/innobase/include/univ.i:212:2: #error "Error: InnoDB's ulint must be of the same size as void*"

I checked 5.2 BK but it's still failing from Bug #21642.

How to repeat:
sfioball -r+ bk://mysql.bkbits.net/mysql-5.1 5.1
cd 5.1
aclocal ; autoheader ; libtoolize --automake --force
automake --force --add-missing ; autoconf
cd storage/innobase
aclocal ; autoheader ; autoconf ; automake
./configure
cd ../..
./configure                                     \
        --prefix=/usr/local/mysql               \
        --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data
make

Verified on Linux as described

Thank you for the report.

Verified using last 5.1-BK sources.

It appears that this error is being thrown because SIZEOF_VOIDP is not defined. In 5.0 this was getting defined in ib_config.h, which is in turn created by the InnoDB configure script.

File storage/innobase/configure.in is missing from the 5.1 BK pull.

Hi,
got it too, today.
Until it is fixed, try adding --with-innodb to your configure line (please post here if it helped). Thanks!

Adding --with-innodb does indeed give me a successful build of 5.1-BK. I'm still not getting a good build of 5.2-BK with or without the --with-innodb option. Does that falls within the realm of Bug #21642, now moved to 5.2, or should I file a new bug report?

Thank you, Bob, for the feedback.

If your problems with 5.2-BK are similar to Bug #21642, simple add comment there. Otherwise you can file a new bug report.

Hello,
The problems in 5.2 are still probably BUG#21642. I don't think you need to file a new bug report.

With today updated sources when I try to compile with --with-innodb option I get error:
....
make[5]: Entering directory `/users/ssmirnova/mysql-5.1f/storage/innobase/os'
make[5]: *** No rule to make target `../config/ac-macros/alloca.m4', needed by `Makefile.in'.  Stop.

From a BK pull of 5.2 this morning I get a similar error:

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/home/bob/mysql/5.2/storage/innobase'
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `@MAINTAINER_MODE_TRUE@', needed by `Makefile.in'.  Stop.

if you have an old storage/innobase/configure but have no storage/innobase/configure.in, try removing storage/innobase/configure and rebuild, and please report here if it helps.

A patch for this bug has been committed. After review, it may
be pushed to the relevant source trees for release in the next
version. You can access the patch from:

  Bug#21855 Compilation error in ha_innodb.cc
   - Add ifdefs in ha_innodb.cc so it's only compiled if we have selected to build mysqld with innodb.
     This is inline with how it's done in other handlers.

Pushed to 5.1.12

No changelog entry needed.
