- Better to use 'String *' directly.
- Added String::get_value(LEX_STRING*) for the few cases where we want to
convert a String to LEX_CSTRING.
Other things:
- Use StringBuffer for some functions to avoid mallocs
Avoid character set conversion for numeric data in this scenario:
SET NAMES utf8;
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1);
SELECT a FROM t1;
- Renaming this virtual method store() to store_str():
store(const char *str, size_t length, CHARSET_INFO *src_cs, CHARSET_INFO *dst_cs)
We'll be adding more variants of store*() soon. This change will help to avoid
ambiguities during overloading.
- Adding a helper method store_ident().
- Renaming store_str(const LEX_CSTRING &s...) to store_lex_cstring(),
to avoid ambiguties during overloading.
- Adding a helper method store() for backward compatibility, to avoid a lot of
changes in the code now. But eventually we should replace store() to
non-ambiguius methods store_str() or store_ident().
- Adding a helper method Protocol::needs_conversion() and reusing it
in two places.
The COM_MULTI did not take off. No connector is using it.
Remove related code from server, and client.
If anything it is a step simplification of already-bloated
dispatch_command(), and related code.
When my_vsnprintf() is patched, the code protected disabled with
'WAITING_FOR_BUGFIX_TO_VSPRINTF' should be enabled again. Also all %b
formats in this patch should be revert to %s again
The problem happened because Item_ident_for_show did not implement val_native().
Solution:
- Removing class Item_ident_for_show
- Implementing a new method Protocol::send_list_fields() instead,
which accepts a List<Field> instead of List<Item> as input.
Now no any Item creation is done during mysqld_list_fields().
Adding helper methods, to reuse the code easier:
- Moved a part of Protocol::send_result_set_metadata(),
responsible for sending an individual field metadata,
into a new method Protocol_text::store_field_metadata().
Reusing it in both send_list_fields() and send_result_set_metadata().
- Adding Protocol_text::store_field_metadata()
- Adding Protocol_text::store_field_metadata_for_list_fields()
Note, this patch also automatically fixed another bug:
MDEV-18685 mysql_list_fields() returns DEFAULT 0 instead of DEFAULT NULL for view columns
The reason for this bug was that Item_ident_for_show::val_xxx() and get_date()
did not check field->is_null() before calling field->val_xxx()/get_date().
Now the default value is correctly sent by Protocol_text::store(Field*).
truncate incorrect values in convert_period_to_month() so that
PERIOD_DIFF never returns a value outside of 2^23 range.
And, for safety, increase buffer sizes for int10_to_str
to be sufficienly big for any int10_to_str result.
Renaming methods:
- Field::make_field(Send_field*) to make_send_field(..)
- Item::make_field(THD *,Send_field *) to make_send_field(..)
- Item::init_make_field(Send_field *, enum_field_type) to init_make_send_field(..)
These names looked similar to other functions that are used
for a very different purpose (creating Field instances):
- Public function "Field * make_field(..)"
- Method "Field *Column_defitinion::make_field(..)"
The rename makes it's easier to search the code using "grep".
Handle string length as size_t, consistently (almost always:))
Change function prototypes to accept size_t, where in the past
ulong or uint were used. change local/member variables to size_t
when appropriate.
This fix excludes rocksdb, spider,spider, sphinx and connect for now.
Item_param::set_value() did not set Item::collation and
Item_param::str_value_ptr.str_charset properly. So both
metadata and data for OUT parameters were sent in a wrong
way to the client.
This patch removes the old implementation of Item_param::set_value()
and rewrites it using Type_handler::Item_param_set_from_value(),
so now setting IN and OUT parameters share the a lot of code.
1. Item_param::set_str() now:
- accepts two additional parameters fromcs, tocs
- sets str_value_ptr, to make sure it's always in sync with str_value,
even without Item_param::convert_str_value()
- does collation.set(tocs, DERIVATION_COERCIBLE),
to make sure that DTCollation is valid even without
Item_param::convert_str_value()
2. Item_param::set_value(), which is used to set OUT parameters,
now reuses Type_handler::Item_param_set_from_value().
3. Cleanup: moving Item_param::str_value_ptr to private,
as it's not needed outside.
4. Cleanup: adding a new virtual method
Settable_routine_parameter::get_item_param()
and using it a few new DBUG_ASSERTs, where
Item_param cannot appear.
After this change:
1. Assigning of IN parameters works as before:
a. Item_param::set_str() is called and sets the value as a binary string
b. The original value is sent to the query used for binary/general logging
c. Item_param::convert_str_value() converts the value from the client
character set to the connection character set
2. Assigning of OUT parameters works in the new way:
a. Item_param::set_str() and sets the value
using the source Item's collation, so both Item::collation
and Item_param::str_value_ptr.str_charset are properly set.
b. Protocol_binary::send_out_parameters() sends the
value to the client correctly:
- Protocol::send_result_set_metadata() uses Item::collation.collation
(which is now properly set), to detect if conversion is needed,
and sends a correct collation ID.
- Protocol::send_result_set_row() calls Type_handler::Item_send_str(),
which uses Item_param::str_value_ptr.str_charset
(which is now properly set) to actually perform the conversion.
If compiling a non DBUG binary with
-DDBUG_ASSERT_AS_PRINTF asserts will be
changed to printf + stack trace (of stack
trace are enabled).
- Changed #ifndef DBUG_OFF to
#ifdef DBUG_ASSERT_EXISTS
for those DBUG_OFF that was just used to enable
assert
- Assert checking that could greatly impact
performance where changed to DBUG_ASSERT_SLOW which
is not affected by DBUG_ASSERT_AS_PRINTF
- Added one extra option to my_print_stacktrace() to
get more silent in case of stack trace printing as
part of assert.
- Added sql/mariadb.h file that should be included first by files in sql
directory, if sql_plugin.h is not used (sql_plugin.h adds SHOW variables
that must be done before my_global.h is included)
- Removed a lot of include my_global.h from include files
- Removed include's of some files that my_global.h automatically includes
- Removed duplicated include's of my_sys.h
- Replaced include my_config.h with my_global.h
Benefits of this patch:
- Removed a lot of calls to strlen(), especially for field_string
- Strings generated by parser are now const strings, less chance of
accidently changing a string
- Removed a lot of calls with LEX_STRING as parameter (changed to pointer)
- More uniform code
- Item::name_length was not kept up to date. Now fixed
- Several bugs found and fixed (Access to null pointers,
access of freed memory, wrong arguments to printf like functions)
- Removed a lot of casts from (const char*) to (char*)
Changes:
- This caused some ABI changes
- lex_string_set now uses LEX_CSTRING
- Some fucntions are now taking const char* instead of char*
- Create_field::change and after changed to LEX_CSTRING
- handler::connect_string, comment and engine_name() changed to LEX_CSTRING
- Checked printf() related calls to find bugs. Found and fixed several
errors in old code.
- A lot of changes from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING, especially related to
parsing and events.
- Some changes from LEX_STRING and LEX_STRING & to LEX_CSTRING*
- Some changes for char* to const char*
- Added printf argument checking for my_snprintf()
- Introduced null_clex_str, star_clex_string, temp_lex_str to simplify
code
- Added item_empty_name and item_used_name to be able to distingush between
items that was given an empty name and items that was not given a name
This is used in sql_yacc.yy to know when to give an item a name.
- select table_name."*' is not anymore same as table_name.*
- removed not used function Item::rename()
- Added comparision of item->name_length before some calls to
my_strcasecmp() to speed up comparison
- Moved Item_sp_variable::make_field() from item.h to item.cc
- Some minimal code changes to avoid copying to const char *
- Fixed wrong error message in wsrep_mysql_parse()
- Fixed wrong code in find_field_in_natural_join() where real_item() was
set when it shouldn't
- ER_ERROR_ON_RENAME was used with extra arguments.
- Removed some (wrong) ER_OUTOFMEMORY, as alloc_root will already
give the error.
TODO:
- Check possible unsafe casts in plugin/auth_examples/qa_auth_interface.c
- Change code to not modify LEX_CSTRING for database name
(as part of lower_case_table_names)
The problem happened because Item_ident_for_show::field_type() always
returned MYSQL_TYPE_DOUBLE and ignored the actual data type of the
referenced Field. As a result, the execution always used
Item_ident_for_show::val_real() to send the default value of the field,
so most default values for non-numeric types were displayed as '0'.
This patch:
1. Cleanup:
a. Removes Send_field::charsetnr, as it's been unused since
introduction of Item::charset_for_protocol() in MySQL-5.5.
b. Adds the "const" qualifier to Field::char_length().
This is needed for (5.a), see below.
2. Introduces a new virtual method Type_handler::charset_for_protocol(),
returning item->collation.collation for string data types, or
&my_charset_bin for non-string data types.
3. Changes Item::charset_for_protocol() from virtual to non-virtual.
It now calls type_handler()->charset_for_protocol().
As a good side effect, duplicate code in Item::charset_for_protocol() and
Item_temporal_hybrid_func::charset_for_protocol() is now gone.
4. Fixes Item_ident_for_show::field_type() to correctly return
its data type according to the data type of the referenced field.
This actually fixes the problem reported in MDEV-11672.
Now the default value is sent using a correct method, e.g.
val_str() for VARCHAR/TEXT, or val_int() for INT/BIGINT.
This required additional changes:
a. in DBUG_ASSERT in Protocol::store(const char *,size_t,CHARSET_INFO),
This method is now used by mysqld_list_fields(), which
(unlike normal SELECT queries) does not set
field_types/field_pos/field_count.
b. Item_ident_for_show::Item_ident_for_show() now set standard attributes
(collation, decimals, max_length, unsigned_flag) according to the
referenced field, to make charset_for_protocol() return the correct
value and to make mysqld_list_fields() correctly send default
values.
5. In order to share the code between Item_field::set_field() and
Item_ident_for_show::Item_ident_for_show():
a. Introduces a new method Type_std_attributes::set(const Field*)
b. To make (a) possible, moves Item::fix_char_length() from Item
to Type_std_attributes, also moves char_to_byte_length_safe()
from item.h to sql_type.h
c. Additionally, moves Item::fix_length_and_charset() and
Item::max_char_length() from Item to Type_std_attributes.
This is not directly needed for the fix and is done just for symmetry
with fix_char_length(), as these three methods are directly related
to each other.
