mysql plugin: Added support for "slave notifications".
The new boolean config option "SlaveNotifications" may be used to enable
notifications if the replication slave I/O and / or SQL threads are not
running (and the respective OKAY notifications). Since this is somewhat
related to the time offset between master and slave, "time_offset" is used for
the type information stored in the notification.

mysql plugin: Added support for master/slave statistics.
MySQL replication master and slave statistics may be enabled using the newly
added boolean config options "MasterStats" and "SlaveStats". In the first
case, the position in the binlog is collected while in the later case the
read and exec positions in the master log as well as the value of the
Seconds_Behind_Master variable are collected.
For the log positions, the counter type "mysql_log_position" has been
introduced while "time_offset" is used for the Seconds_Behind_Master values.

Me too. Please remove the second one at least, kstat_read do not change

I went for the kstat.h only solution.
Ok, I'm attaching the code, please check the preprocessor directives for
the includes section, I don't much about defines created by the build
system and its names.
I'm using it right now on a linux machine, but I haven't tested yet on
Solaris and BSDs. Today I tried to compile it on OpenSolaris, but after
fighting with the packaging system and many other things I gave up and
decided I won't try anymore. So, since I'd like to say the plugin is
done after testing it, Solaris testers are wanted :P
As soon as I can I will edit the wiki page, but first I want to have a
closer look to the iptable plugin and see how many modifications are
needed for IPv6 and then have an opinion about the single vs. double
plugin approach.
See you soon :)

The member `instance' is used to determine whether or not to use ``legacy

- If it is NULL, legacy mode is in action
- Otherwise, non-legacy mode should be used.
``legacy mode'' and ``non-legacy mode'' cannot be mixed: If at least one
database is defined in the ``new'' way, all options that'd be valid in
legacy mode will only trigger a warning.

With this change basically only timeout checks are triggered from the

a different interval. This is currently not used, but will come in handy

bind plugin: Actually handle RR cache numbers as `gauge'..
Hi Florian,
Well a working patch was even less trivial as the quick one from
yesterday evening.
Just using a gauge type is not sufficient (only 0 is written to RRD
files), it's also necessary to adjust the bind_xml_stats_handle_view()
as has been done for the memory statistics
Attached is a patch to bind.c (I skipped types.db) which fixes the
cache data collection.
In addition I attached a graph of the cache evolution and memory (for
memory it might be worth giving it an own type as it's not cumulative
at all)

postgresql_default.conf: Make sure the "disk_io" query does not return NULLs.
Starting with some version between 8.3.3 and 8.3.6, pg_statio_*_tables returns
NULL instead of 0 for statistics if no instance of the appropriate relation
exists. PQgetvalue() returns an empty string in that case which would then
result in error messages when udb_result_submit() tries to convert that to a
number.
Now, the "disk_io" query uses PostgreSQL's coalesce() function to make sure 0
is returned instead of NULL.

src/common.c: Fixed a race condition in check_create_dir().
Between checking for the existence of a directory using stat() and creating
the directory using mkdir(), another thread might have already created the
directory thus causing mkdir() to fail with errno == EEXIST. This case is now
handled sanely, no longer causing the function (and thus some write callback)
to fail in this case.
Most likely, this only happens during startup when creating the data
directories - later, no two threads should try to create the same directory.
Interestingly enough, I frequently encountered this issue on a single core
machine.
