#
# SUMMARY
#
#    Waits until the passed number ($count_sessions) of concurrent sessions or
#    a smaller number was observed via
#       SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Threads_connected'
#    or the operation times out.
#    Note:
#    1. We wait for $current_sessions <= $count_sessions because in the use case
#       with count_sessions.inc before and wait_until_count_sessions.inc after
#       the core of the test it could happen that the disconnects of sessions
#       belonging to the preceding test are not finished.
#       sessions at test begin($count_sessions) =  m + n
#       sessions of the previous test which will be soon disconnected = n (n >= 0)
#       sessions at test end ($current sessions, assuming the test disconnects
#          all additional sessions) = m
#    2. Starting with 5.1 we could also use
#       SELECT COUNT(*) FROM information_schema.processlist
#       I stay with "SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Threads_connected'" because this
#       runs in all versions 5.0+
#
#
# USAGE
#
#    let $count_sessions= 3;
#    --source include/wait_until_count_sessions.inc
#
#    OR typical example of a test which uses more than one session
#       Such a test could harm successing tests if there is no server shutdown
#       and start between.
#
#       If the testing box is slow than the disconnect of sessions belonging to
#       the current test might happen when the successing test gets executed.
#       This means the successing test might see activities like unexpected
#       rows within the general log or the PROCESSLIST.

#
#       Important note about tests with unfortunate (= not cooperative
#       to successing tests) architecture:
#          connection con1;
#          send SELECT ..., sleep(10)
#          connection default;
#          ...
#          disconnect con1;
#          <end of test>
#       should be fixed by
#          connection con1;
#          send SELECT ..., sleep(10)
#          connection default;
#          ...
#          connect con1;
#          reap;
#          connection default;
#          disconnect con1;
#          <end of test>
#       and not only by appending include/wait_until_count_sessions.inc etc.
