See bug #57094
Description: In Server 5.5 and later, we use "MySQL AB" as the author in the audit_null file. This should be changed to "Oracle Corp" since "MySQL AB" doesn't exist anymore. In addition, the copyright/license notice is incorrect; Oracle is not mentioned. Since the 5.5GA release will be in 2010, all copyright notices must be changed to show Oracle as the owner. How to repeat: The following is found in /plugin/audit_null/audit_null.c: mysql_declare_plugin(audit_null) { MYSQL_AUDIT_PLUGIN, /* type */ &audit_null_descriptor, /* descriptor */ "NULL_AUDIT", /* name */ "MySQL AB", /* author */ "Simple NULL Audit", /* description */ PLUGIN_LICENSE_GPL, audit_null_plugin_init, /* init function (when loaded) */ audit_null_plugin_deinit, /* deinit function (when unloaded) */ 0x0002, /* version */ simple_status, /* status variables */ NULL, /* system variables */ NULL } Please change author to "Oracle Corp". In addition, the copyright notice of the audit_null.c and the CMakeLists.txt files must be changed to the following: Copyright (c) 2006, 2010, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
