attempt to create spatial index on char > 31 bytes".
Attempt to create spatial index on char field with length
greater than 31 byte led to assertion failure on server
compiled with safemutex support.
The problem occurred in mi_create() function which was called
to create a new version of table being altered. This function
failed since it detected an attempt to create a spatial key
on non-binary column and tried to return an error.
On its error path it tried to unlock THR_LOCK_myisam mutex
which has not been not locked at this point. Indeed such an
incorrect behavior was caught by safemutex wrapper and caused
assertion failure.
This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that mi_create()
doesn't releases THR_LOCK_myisam mutex on error path if it was
not acquired.
IA64 and some other arcitectures use different float rounding mode and
i find no decent way to make it consistent.
So the test changed to be insensitive to this.

Item_func_spatial_collection::fix_length_and_dec didn't call parent's method, so
the maybe_null was set to '0' after it. But in this case the result was
just NULL, that caused wrong behaviour.

Item_func_geometry::fix_length_and_dec() called in

Convertion from a floating point number to a string caused a
crash.
During rare circumstances a String object could crash when
it was requested to allocate new memory.
A crash could occcur in Field_double::val_str() because of
a pointer referencing memory inside a String object which was
of unknown size.
And finally, the geometric collection should not accept
arguments which are non geometric.
causing crashes!
Adding a SPATIAL INDEX on a non-geometrical column caused a
segmentation fault when the table was subsequently
inserted into.
A test was added in mysql_prepare_create_table to explicitly
check whether non-geometrical columns are used in a
spatial index, and throw an error if so.
to string conversions and vice versa"
Initial import of the dtoa.c code and custom wrappers around it
to allow its usage from the server code.
Conversion of FLOAT/DOUBLE values to DECIMAL ones or strings
and vice versa has been significantly reworked. As the new
algoritms are more precise than the older ones, results of such
conversions may not always match those obtained from older
server versions. This in turn may break compatibility for some
applications.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
- bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of exponent between
Unix and Windows"
- bug #21497 "DOUBLE truncated to unusable value"
- bug #26788 "mysqld (debug) aborts when inserting specific
numbers into char fields"
- bug #24541 "Data truncated..." on decimal type columns
without any good reason"
SPATIAL and FULLTEXT indexes don't support algorithm
selection.
Disabled by creating a special grammar rule for these
in the parser.
Added some encasulation of duplicate parser code.
If the first argument to GeomFromWKB function is a geometry
field then the function just returns its value.
However in doing so it's not preserving first argument's
null_value flag and this causes unexpected null value to
be returned to the calling function.
Fixed by updating the null_value of the GeomFromWKB function
in such cases (and all other cases that return a NULL e.g.
because of not enough memory for the return buffer).
Item_func_spatial_collection::val_str
When the concatenation function for geometry data collections
reads the binary data it was not rigorous in checking that there
is data available, leading to invalid reads and crashes.
Fixed by making checking stricter.
the Point() and Linestring() functions create WKB representation of an
object instead of an real geometry object.
That produced bugs when these were inserted into tables.
GIS tests fixed accordingly.

Point() and similar functions to create a proper object
SPATIAL key is fine actually, but the chk_key() function
mistakenly returns error. It tries to compare checksums
of btree and SPATIAL keys while the checksum for the SPATIAL isn't
calculated (always 0). Same thing with FULLTEXT keys is handled
using full_text_keys counter, so fixed by counting both
SPATIAL and FULLTEXT keys in that counter.
max_length parameter for BLOB-returning functions must be big enough
for any possible content. Otherwise the field created for a table
will be too small.
Fixed the usage of spatial data (and Point in specific) with
non-spatial indexes.
Several problems :
- The length of the Point class was not updated to include the
spatial reference system identifier. Fixed by increasing with 4
bytes.
- The storage length of the spatial columns was not accounting for
the length that is prepended to it. Fixed by treating the
spatial data columns as blobs (and thus increasing the storage
length)
- When creating the key image for comparison in index read wrong
key image was created (the one needed for and r-tree search,
not the one for b-tree/other search). Fixed by treating the
spatial data columns as blobs (and creating the correct kind of
image based on the index type).
AsText() needs to know the maximum number of
characters a IEEE double precision value can
occupy to make sure there's enough buffer space.
The number was too small to hold all possible
values and this caused buffer overruns.
Fixed by correcting the calculation of the
maximum digits in a string representation of an
IEEE double precision value as printed by
String::qs_append(double).
This bug was introduced by the fix for the bug#27300. In this fix a section
of code was added to the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method.
This section intended to create Field_geom fields for the Item_geometry_func
class and its descendants. In order to get the geometry type of the current
item it casted "this" to the Item_geometry_func* type. But the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method is also used for creation of
fields for UNION and in this case this method is called for an object of the
Item_type_holder class and the cast to the Item_geometry_func* type causes
a server crash.
Now the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type method correctly works when it's
called for both the Item_type_holder and the Item_geometry_func classes.
The new geometry_type variable is added to the Item_type_holder class.
The new method called get_geometry_type is added to the Item_field
and the Field classes. It returns geometry type from the field for the
Item_field and the Field_geom classes and fails an assert for other Field
descendants.
Geometry fields have a result type string and a
special subclass to cater for the differences
between them and the base class (just like
DATE/TIME).
When creating temporary tables for results of
functions that return results of type GEOMETRY
we must construct fields of the derived class
instead of the base class.
Fixed by creating a GEOMETRY field (Field_geom)
instead of a generic BLOB (Field_blob) in temp
tables for the results of GIS functions that
have GEOMETRY return type (Item_geometry_func).
