Description:

Currently when doing a SHOW MASTER LOGS when the filesystem is full, it will block. It should be better to issue an error saying what was wrong instead of waiting. Maybe there are other statements which need this.

How to repeat:

- enable the binary logging and set datadir to a RAMDISK for example
- fill a table till you get error 28
- do a SHOW MASTER LOGS
=> hangs

Suggested fix:
New option --error-on-full-disk?
