In MariaDB, we have a confusing problem where:
* The transaction_isolation option can be set in a configuration file, but it cannot be set dynamically.
* The tx_isolation system variable can be set dynamically, but it cannot be set in a configuration file.
Therefore, we have two different names for the same thing in different contexts. This is needlessly confusing, and it complicates the documentation. The same thing applys for transaction_read_only.
MySQL 5.7 solved this problem by making them into system variables. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.7/en/news-5-7-20.html
This commit takes a similar approach by adding new system variables and marking the original ones as deprecated. This commit also resolves some legacy problems related to SET STATEMENT and transaction_isolation.
Commit a923d6f49c disabled numeric setting
of character_set_* variables with non-default values:
MariaDB [(none)]> set character_set_client=224;
ERROR 1115 (42000): Unknown character set: '224'
However the corresponding binlog functionality still write numeric
values for log event, and this will break binlog replay if the value is
not default. Now make the server use 'String' type for
'character_set_client' when generating binlog events
Before:
/*!\C utf8mb4 *//*!*/;
SET @@session.character_set_client=224,@@session.collation_connection=224,@@session.collation_server=33/*!*/;
After:
/*!\C utf8mb4 *//*!*/;
SET @@session.character_set_client=utf8mb4,@@session.collation_connection=33,@@session.collation_server=8/*!*/;
Note: prior to the previous commit, setting with '224' or '45' or
'utf8mb4' have the same effect, as they all set the parameter to
'utf8mb4'.

This patch fixes not only the assertion failure in the function
Field_iterator_table_ref::set_field_iterator() but also:
- fixes the problem of forced materialization of derived tables used
in subqueries contained in WHERE clauses of single-table and multi-table
UPDATE and DELETE statements
- fixes the problem of MDEV-17954 that prevented execution of multi-table
DELETE statements if they use in their WHERE clauses references to
the tables that are updated.
The patch must be considered a complement to the patch for MDEV-28883.

SUPER privilege used to allow various actions that were alternatively
allowed by one of BINLOG ADMIN, BINLOG MONITOR, BINLOG REPLAY,
CONNECTION ADMIN, FEDERATED ADMIN, REPL MASTER ADMIN, REPL SLAVE ADMIN,
SET USER, SLAVE MONITOR.
Now SUPER no longer does that, one has to grant one of the fine-grained
privileges above to be to perform corresponding actions.
On upgrade from MariaDB versions 10.11 and below all the privileges
above are granted automatically if the user has SUPER.
As a side-effect, such an upgrade will allow SUPER-user to run SHOW
BINLOG EVENTS, SHOW RELAYLOG EVENTS, SHOW SLAVE HOSTS, even if he wasn't
able to do it before the upgrade.
This was done after discussions with Igor, Sanja and Bar.
The main reason for removing the deprication was to ensure that MariaDB
is always backward compatible whenever possible.
Other things:
- Added statistics counters, mainly for the feedback plugin.
- INTO OUTFILE
- INTO variable
- If INTO is using the old syntax (end of query)
- Added missing information about database of corresponding table for various types of commands
- Update some typos
- Reviewed by: <vicentiu@mariadb.org>
- Added one neutral and 22 tailored (language specific) collations based on
Unicode Collation Algorithm version 14.0.0.
Collations were added for Unicode character sets
utf8mb3, utf8mb4, ucs2, utf16, utf32.
Every tailoring was added with four accent and case
sensitivity flag combinations, e.g:
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_as_cs
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_ai_cs
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_ai_ci
and their _nopad_ variants:
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_as_cs
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_as_ci
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_ai_cs
* utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_ai_ci
- Introducing a conception of contextually typed named collations:
CREATE DATABASE db1 CHARACTER SET utf8mb4;
CREATE TABLE db1.t1 (a CHAR(10) COLLATE uca1400_as_ci);
The idea is that there is no a need to specify the character set prefix
in the new collation names. It's enough to type just the suffix
"uca1400_as_ci". The character set is taken from the context.
In the above example script the context character set is utf8mb4.
So the CREATE TABLE will make a column with the collation
utf8mb4_uca1400_as_ci.
Short collations names can be used in any parts of the SQL syntax
where the COLLATE clause is understood.
- New collations are displayed only one time
(without character set combinations) by these statements:
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS;
SHOW COLLATION;
For example, all these collations:
- utf8mb3_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
- utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
- ucs2_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
- utf16_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
- utf32_uca1400_swedish_as_ci
have just one entry in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS and SHOW COLLATION,
with COLLATION_NAME equal to "uca1400_swedish_as_ci", which is the suffix
without the character set name:
SELECT COLLATION_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS
WHERE COLLATION_NAME LIKE '%uca1400_swedish_as_ci';
+-----------------------+
| COLLATION_NAME |
+-----------------------+
| uca1400_swedish_as_ci |
+-----------------------+
Note, the behaviour of old collations did not change.
Non-unicode collations (e.g. latin1_swedish_ci) and
old UCA-4.0.0 collations (e.g. utf8mb4_unicode_ci)
are still displayed with the character set prefix, as before.
- The structure of the table INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS was changed.
The NOT NULL constraint was removed from these columns:
- CHARACTER_SET_NAME
- ID
- IS_DEFAULT
and from the corresponding columns in SHOW COLLATION.
For example:
SELECT COLLATION_NAME, CHARACTER_SET_NAME, ID, IS_DEFAULT
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS
WHERE COLLATION_NAME LIKE '%uca1400_swedish_as_ci';
+-----------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
| COLLATION_NAME | CHARACTER_SET_NAME | ID | IS_DEFAULT |
+-----------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
| uca1400_swedish_as_ci | NULL | NULL | NULL |
+-----------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
The NULL value in these columns now means that the collation
is applicable to multiple character sets.
The behavioir of old collations did not change.
Make sure your client programs can handle NULL values in these columns.
- The structure of the table
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY was changed.
Three new NOT NULL columns were added:
- FULL_COLLATION_NAME
- ID
- IS_DEFAULT
New collations have multiple entries in COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY.
The column COLLATION_NAME contains the collation name without the character
set prefix. The column FULL_COLLATION_NAME contains the collation name with
the character set prefix.
Old collations have full collation name in both FULL_COLLATION_NAME and
COLLATION_NAME.
SELECT COLLATION_NAME, FULL_COLLATION_NAME, CHARACTER_SET_NAME, ID, IS_DEFAULT
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY
WHERE FULL_COLLATION_NAME RLIKE '^(utf8mb4|latin1).*swedish.*ci$';
+-----------------------------+-------------------------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
| COLLATION_NAME | FULL_COLLATION_NAME | CHARACTER_SET_NAME | ID | IS_DEFAULT |
+-----------------------------+-------------------------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
| latin1_swedish_ci | latin1_swedish_ci | latin1 | 8 | Yes |
| latin1_swedish_nopad_ci | latin1_swedish_nopad_ci | latin1 | 1032 | |
| utf8mb4_swedish_ci | utf8mb4_swedish_ci | utf8mb4 | 232 | |
| uca1400_swedish_ai_ci | utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_ai_ci | utf8mb4 | 2368 | |
| uca1400_swedish_as_ci | utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_as_ci | utf8mb4 | 2370 | |
| uca1400_swedish_nopad_ai_ci | utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_ai_ci | utf8mb4 | 2372 | |
| uca1400_swedish_nopad_as_ci | utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_nopad_as_ci | utf8mb4 | 2374 | |
+-----------------------------+-------------------------------------+--------------------+------+------------+
- Other INFORMATION_SCHEMA queries:
SELECT COLLATION_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS;
SELECT COLLATION_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PARAMETERS;
SELECT TABLE_COLLATION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES;
SELECT DEFAULT_COLLATION_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA;
SELECT COLLATION_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES;
SELECT COLLATION_CONNECTION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS;
SELECT DATABASE_COLLATION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS;
SELECT COLLATION_CONNECTION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES;
SELECT DATABASE_COLLATION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES;
SELECT COLLATION_CONNECTION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TRIGGERS;
SELECT DATABASE_COLLATION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TRIGGERS;
SELECT COLLATION_CONNECTION FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VIEWS;
display full collation names, including character sets prefix,
for all collations, including new collations.
Corresponding SHOW commands also display full collation names
in collation related columns:
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1;
SHOW CREATE DATABASE db1;
SHOW TABLE STATUS;
SHOW CREATE FUNCTION f1;
SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE p1;
SHOW CREATE EVENT ev1;
SHOW CREATE TRIGGER tr1;
SHOW CREATE VIEW;
These INFORMATION_SCHEMA queries and SHOW statements may change in
the future, to display show collation names.
