In commit b6923420f3
(MDEV-29445)
some hash tables were accidentally created with the minimum size
(101 entries) instead of correctly deriving the size from the
initial innodb_buffer_pool_size. This led to very long hash bucket
chains, which are very slow to traverse.
ut_find_prime(): Assert that the size is nonzero in order to catch
this type of regression in the future.
innodb_init_params(): Do not bother reading buf_pool.curr_size()
when it is known to be 0,
srv_start(): Correctly initialize srv_lock_table_size to 5 times
buf_pool.curr_size(), that is, the buffer pool size in pages,
between invoking buf_pool.create() and lock_sys.create().
btr_search_enable(), dict_sys_t::create(), dict_sys_t::resize():
Correctly refer to buf_pool.curr_pool_size(), that is,
innodb_buffer_pool_size in bytes, when calculating the hash table size.
In MDEV-29445 the expressions buf_pool_get_curr_size() were
accidentally replaced with buf_pool.curr_size().

MariaDB: The innovative open source database
MariaDB was designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariaDB Corporation, the MariaDB Foundation and by many people in the community.
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
A description of the MariaDB project and a manual can be found at:

Getting the code, building it and testing it
Refer to the following guide: https://mariadb.org/get-involved/getting-started-for-developers/get-code-build-test/ which outlines how to build the source code correctly and run the MariaDB testing framework, as well as which branch to target for your contributions.
