Problem: lying to the optimizer that a function (Item_func_inet_ntoa)
cannot return NULL values leads to unexpected results (in the case group
keys creation/comparison is broken).
Fix: Item_func_inet_ntoa::maybe_null should be set properly.
The general log write function (general_log_print) uses printf style
arguments which need to be pre-processed, meaning that the all arguments
are copied to a single buffer and the problem is that the buffer size is
constant (1022 characters) but queries can be much larger then this.
The solution is to introduce a new log write function that accepts a
buffer and it's length as arguments. The function is to be used when
a formatted output is not required, which is the case for almost all
query write-to-log calls.
This is a incompatible change with respect to the log format of prepared
statements.
The server crashed when a thread was killed while locking the
general_log table at statement begin.
The general_log table is handled like a performance schema table.
The state of open tables is saved and cleared so that this table
seems to be the only open one. Then this table is opened and locked.
After writing, the table is closed and the open table state is
restored. Before restoring, however, it is asserted that there is
no current table open.
After locking the table, mysql_lock_tables() checks if the thread
was killed in between. If so, it unlocks the table and returns an
error. open_ltable() just returns with the error and leaves closing
of the table to close_thread_tables(), which is called at
statement end.
open_performance_schema_table() did not take this into account.
It assumed that a failed open_ltable() would not leave an open
table behind.
Fixed by closing thread tables after open_ltable() and before
restore_backup_open_tables_state() if the thread was killed.
No test case. It requires correctly timed parallel execution.
Since this bug was detected by the test suite, it seems
dispensable to add another test.
CPUs / Intel's ICC compile
The bug is a combination of two problems:
1. IA64/ICC MySQL binaries use glibc's qsort(), not the one in mysys.
2. The order relation implemented by join_tab_cmp() is not transitive,
i.e. it is possible to choose such a, b and c that (a < b) && (b < c)
but (c < a). This implies that result of a sort using the relation
implemented by join_tab_cmp() depends on the order in which
elements are compared, i.e. the result is implementation-specific. Since
choose_plan() uses qsort() to pre-sort the
join tables using join_tab_cmp() as a compare function, the results of
the sorting may vary depending on qsort() implementation.
It is neither possible nor important to implement a better ordering
algorithm in join_tab_cmp(). Therefore the only way to fix it is to
force our own qsort() to be used by renaming it to my_qsort(), so we don't depend
on linker to decide that.
This patch also "fixes" bug #20530: qsort redefinition violates the
standard.
The problem was that the RETURNS column in the mysql.proc was of
CHAR(64). That was not enough for storing long-named datatypes.
The fix is to change CHAR(64) to LONGBLOB, and to throw warnings
at the time a stored routine is created if some data is truncated
during writing into mysql.proc.
The embedded version of the server doesn't use column level grants, and
the compile directive NO_EMBEDDED_ACCESS_CHECKS should be checked instead of
the redundant HAVE_QUERY_CACHE (which is always the case) to determine if
column level grants should be compiled or not.
Problem: we don't evaluate given expression checking values of the
slow_query_log_file/general_log_file, don't check it for NULL.
Fix: evaluate the expression, check result returned.
The root cause of the issue was that the CREATE FUNCTION grammar,
for User Defined Functions, was using the sp_name rule.
The sp_name rule is intended for fully qualified stored procedure names,
like either ident.ident, or just ident but with a default database
implicitly selected.
A UDF does not have a fully qualified name, only a name (ident), and should
not use the sp_name grammar fragment during parsing.
The fix is to re-organize the CREATE FUNCTION grammar, to better separate:
- creating UDF (no definer, can have AGGREGATE, simple ident)
- creating Stored Functions (definer, no AGGREGATE, fully qualified name)
With the test case provided, another issue was exposed which is also fixed:
the DROP FUNCTION statement was using sp_name and also failing when no database
is implicitly selected, when droping UDF functions.
The fix is also to change the grammar so that DROP FUNCTION works with
both the ident.ident syntax (to drop a stored function), or just the ident
syntax (to drop either a UDF or a Stored Function, in the current database)
If mysql_lock_tables fails because the lock was aborted, we need to
reset thd->some_tables_delete, otherwise we might loop indefinitely
because handler's tables are not closed in a standard way, meaning
that close_thread_tables() (which resets some_tables_deleted) is not
used.
This patch fixes sporadical failures of handler_myisam/innodb tests
which were introduced by previous fix for this bug.
Options to mysqld were not processed correctly because switch statement
was missing some "break"s. CS adds them.
No test case; would require .opt file and server restart. Manually tested.
Before this patch, failures to write to the log tables (mysql.slow_log
and mysql.general_log) were improperly printed (the time was printed twice),
or not printed at all.
With this patch, failures to write to the log tables is reported in the
error log, for all cases of failures.
"DECLARE CURSOR FOR SHOW ..." is a syntax that currently appears to work,
but is untested for some SHOW commands and does not work for other SHOW
commands.
Since this is an un-intended feature that leaked as a result of a coding bug
(in the parser grammar), the correct fix is to fix the grammar to not accept
this construct.
In other words, "DECLARE CURSOR FOR SHOW <other commands that don't work>"
is not considered a bug, and we will not implement other features to make all
the SHOW commands usable inside a cursor just because someone exploited a bug.
Problem: GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT BIT_FIELD...) uses a tree to store keys;
which are constructed using a temporary table fields,
see Item_func_group_concat::setup().
As a) we don't store null bits in the tree where the bit fields store parts
of their data and b) there's no method to properly compare two table records
we've got problem.
Fix: convert BIT fields to INT in the temporary table used.
