You could have InnoDB clean things up as follows:
- signal mysqld to have InnoDB flush everything out of the logs on shutdown
- shutdown mysqld
- delete the logs
- start mysqld
No crash recovery will happen because there will be nothing to recover.
MYSQL_USER=root
MYSQL_PASS=rootpassword
MYSQL_CONN="-u${MYSQL_USER} -p${MYSQL_PASS} -h127.0.0.1 -P3306 --protocol=tcp"
SQL="SET GLOBAL innodb_fast_shutdown = 0"
mysql ${MYSQL_CONN} -ANe"${SQL}"
mysqladmin ${MYSQL_CONN} shutdown
cd /var/lib/mysql
rm -f ib_logfile*
service mysql start
If you want lingering data pages cleansed out of the Double Write Buffer, please see my old post Fill ibdata1 With Zeros/Nulls/etc Or Change A Table's Tablespace
