### Description
Ubuntu 18.04 offers both libssl 1.0 and 1.1, however the -dev packages conflict between
them and only one can be installed at a given time. The libmysqlclient-dev (the MySQL
project, not MariaDB) requires the libssl1.1-dev, so only this one can be used to compile
at the same time db_mysql and tls.
During start up, a few kamailio processes die due to a crash in libmysqlclient,
referencing the use of libssl and libcrypto. This happens when connecting over IP sockets
to MySQL server, not over local unix file socket (which is done when using `localhost` for
db server host).
The solution so far was to add a new modparam opt_ssl_mode to db_mysql to set the SSL mode
for the connection, allowing to disable it. Without, the client library attempts always to
use SSL/TLS.
A set of commits were pushed recently to db_mysql modules:
* https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/commits/master/src/modules/db_mysql
I plan to backport them 5.3 and 5.2 branches, in order to fix the crash and be able to
connect to MySQL servers in private network. It proved that the SSL mode options can be
set only when MySQL Project libmysqlclient library is used (and maybe only when using the
MySQL server, in my case it was MySQL server 5.7.30), the MariaDB client library does not
offer these options.
Wondering if anyone else experienced something similar?
### Troubleshooting
#### Reproduction
Kamailio v5.2.7 compiled from sources on Ubuntu 18.04 with db_mysql and tls loaded.
#### Debugging Data
A backtrace looks like:
