A 0xHHHH / b'..' literal keeps its hex_hybrid type through COALESCE/IF/CASE/...,
but was evaluated, sized and stored as a string, so it behaved differently from
a bare literal (10+COALESCE(0x31) gave 11, not 59).
Type_handler_hex_hybrid now implements the numeric side to match the bare
literal: val_int/val_real/val_decimal read bytes as a hybrid, Item_decimal_precision
returns the integer precision, Item_save_in_field stores like the bare literal.
The traditional type merge keeps the hybrid through a typeless NULL (as for BIT),
and Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes attributes it binary/unsigned.
Problem:
SELECT on a table with a TIMESTAMP column and a virtual column
expression containing a field reference crashes with assertion
marked_for_read() in Field_timestamp0::get_timestamp.
Cause:
convert_item_for_comparison() physically evaluates the subject item
via Datetime dt(thd, subject, ...) to attempt a TIMESTAMP vs DATETIME
optimization. During vcol_fix_expr() at open_table() time,
used_tables_cache is not yet propagated up the item tree, causing
const_item() to return true incorrectly for a non-constant expression
containing a field reference. The evaluation then reads Field_timestamp0
before read bitmaps are initialized, violating marked_for_read().
Fix:
Add find_field_processor() to the Item base class, overridden in
Item_field to return true. Guard convert_item_for_comparison() with
a walk() check to skip physical evaluation if the subject subtree
contains any field reference.
Field::get_date and Item::get_date can return true and not
have their ltime pointer structure initialized.
This was the case with Field_vers_trx_id::get_date.
Type_handler_time_common::stored_field_cmp_to_item rather
than doing a my_time_compare on uninitialized values can
return a non-equality (!=0) value for when the fetching of
Field or Item fails and avoid the call to my_time_compare.
Added checks for other invalid results before being
passed to my_time_compare.
Add nonnull as an attribute on my_time_compare and the
unpack_time function it used. Also pack_time since related
and it obviously requires a non-null argument.

MDEV-37146 mariadb-dump: Replace SHOW SLAVE STATUS usage with information_schema.SLAVE_STATUS
Signed-off-by: Kristian Nielsen <knielsen@knielsen-hq.org>
When setup_copy_fields() needs to copy a non-aggregate function value,
it doesn't construct an Item_copy directly. Instead, it calls
Type_handler::create_item_copy, which is a kind of factory. The base
Type_handler::create_item_copy returns Item_copy_string. Some type
handlers override it, like timestamp and fixed binary. However, the
numeric type handlers (e.g., float, double, int, decimal) did not, so
they fell through to that base and got Item_copy_string.
A SELECT that aggregates will copy each non aggregate function value
into a temporary table through an Item_copy object, whose concrete
type is chosen by the create_item_copy method on the value's type
handler. For numeric types that method returned Item_copy_string,
which stores the value as text. A FLOAT keeps only FLT_DIG
significant digits as text, too few to reproduce its 24 bit mantissa,
so the copied value differed from the original. With one row per
group, CAST(c1 AS FLOAT) - MIN(CAST(c1 AS FLOAT)) returned a large
number instead of zero.
Add Item_copy_real with Item_copy_float and Item_copy_double variants
that keep the value as a double, the same way Item_cache_real does, and
let the float and double type handlers create them. This mirrors the
existing copy items for timestamp and fixed binary types.
JSON is utf8mb4. Change INFORMATION_SCHEMA.OPTIMIZER_TRACE.TRACE from
using utf8mb3 to mb4.
In order to do that:
- Add m_charset into Show::Type (NULL means "use the default")
- Make Type_handler_varchar::make_schema_field() check that field
and use the specified charset/collation.
- Add a constructor to Show::Longtext that allows to specify the charset
- Make optimizer_trace use my_charset_utf8mb4_general_ci.
- In fill_optimizer_trace_info(), indicate that the trace we've
collected is utf8mb4
Problem:
When a stored function returning `ROW` type is used as a `ROW` field
and comapred against a non-ROW field, server crashes trying to
aggregate types for comaprison in-
`Type_collection_row::aggregate_for_comparison`.
for example:
CREATE FUNCTION f() RETURNS ROW TYPE OF t RETURN 1;
SELECT ROW(f(),1)=ROW(1,1) AS eq;
Fix:
Convert assertions in `Type_collection_row::aggregate_for_comparison`
into a condition and return `NULL` if an invalid type combination is
detected.
Adding support for the strict cursor data types:
Example 1a:
TYPE rec0_t IS RECORD (a INT, VARCHAR(10));
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN rec0_t;
Example 1b:
TYPE rec0_t IS RECORD (a t1.a%TYPE, b t1.b%TYPE);
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN rec0_t;
Example 1c:
TYPE rec0_t IS RECORD (a INT, VARCHAR(10));
r0 rec0_t;
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN r0%TYPE;
Example 1d:
TYPE rec0_t IS RECORD (a t1.a%TYPE, b t1.b%TYPE);
r0 rec0_t;
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN r0%TYPE;
Example2a:
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN t1%ROWTYPE; -- t1 is a table
Example 2b:
r0 t1%ROWTYPE;
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN r0%TYPE;
Example3a:
CURSOR cursor_sample IS SELECT a,b FROM t1;
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN cursor_sample%ROWTYPE;
Example3b:
CURSOR cursor_sample IS SELECT a,b FROM t1;
r0 cursor_sample%ROWTYPE;
TYPE cur0_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN r0%TYPE;
If a cursor variable is declared with a RETURN clause then:
1. At OPEN type the data type of the SELECT list row is compared
for compatibility with the cursor RETURN data type.
The SELECT list row must be assignable to the RETURN type row.
If case if assignability is not meet, an error is raised
Assignability means:
- The arity of the SELECT list must be equal to the arity
of the RETURN clause
- Every n-th field of the SELECT list must be assignable to the
n-th field of the RETURN Clause
2. At FETCH time, the data is fetched in two steps:
a. On the first step the data is fetched into a virtual table
with the row type described in the RETURN clause
b. On the second step the data is copied from the virtual table
to the target fetch list. Data type conversion can happen
on this step.
Change details:
Adding new methods:
- sp_cursor::check_assignability_to
- Virtual_tmp_table::check_assignability_from
- Virtual_tmp_table::sp_set_from_select_list
- Virtual_tmp_table::sp_save_in_vtable
- Virtual_tmp_table::sp_save_in_target_list
- LEX::check_ref_cursor_components
- LEX::make_sp_instr_copy_struct_for_last_context_variables
- LEX::declare_type_ref_cursor
- sp_cursor::Select_fetch_into_spvars::send_data_with_return_type
Adding new members:
- sp_instr_copen_by_ref::m_cursor_name
- Select_fetch_into_spvars::m_return_type
- Select_materialize::m_cursor_name
- Select_materialize::m_return_type
Adding new virtual methods:
- Item::resolve_spvar_cursor_rowtype
- Type_handler::Spvar_definition_resolve_type_refs
- Server_side_cursor::check_assignability_to
- Overriding Select_materialize::prepare to raise an error when the cursor
returned data type is not compatible with the RETURN clause
Making these methods virtual:
- Field::check_assignability_from
Adding new classes:
- sp_type_def_ref
- RowTypeBuffer
Adding new constructors to:
- Spvar_definition
Adding new helper methods (e.g. to reuse the code)
- Field::store_field_maybe_null
- ChanBuffer::append_ulonglong
- sp_pcontext::set_type_for_last_context_variables
Minor changes:
- Making TABLE::export_structure const
- Overriding Item_splocal::type_extra_attributes. It was forgotten in earlier changes.
Adding new error messages
- ER_CANNOT_CAST_ON_IDENT1_ASSIGNMENT_FOR_OPERATION
- ER_CANNOT_CAST_ON_IDENT2_ASSIGNMENT_FOR_OPERATION
Some data types:
- RECORD
- assoc arrays
- SYS_REFCURSOR
erroneously accepted non-relevant attributes:
- length
- scale
- character set / collation
- REF_SYSTEM_ID
Fixing to raise an error.
Details:
- Overriding get_column_attributes() in Type_handler_row,
Type_handler_sys_refcursor, Type_handler_assoc_array.
- Moving a piece of the old code into a new method
Type_handler::check_data_type_attributes(), to reuse it
for testing attributes for both plugin types and TYPE-def types.
- Reusing check_data_type_attributes() in methods
* LEX::set_field_type_udt_or_typedef()
* LEX::set_field_type_udt()
- Adding opt_binary into the rule field_type_all_with_typedefs,
into the grammar branch for the plugin types, as XMLTYPE needs it.
The method Type_handler::Column_definition_fix_attributes() was an
addition for Type_handler::Column_definition_set_attributes().
The code in virtual implementations of Column_definition_fix_attributes()
has now been joined to corresponding virtual implementations of
Column_definition_set_attributes().
After this change everything is done in Column_definition_set_attributes().
This makes the code clearer. Previous implementation was rather confusing.
For example, for temporal data types:
(1) After Column_definition_set_attributes():
- Column_definition::length meant the fractional precision
- Column_definition::decimals was set to 0
(2) After Column_definition_fix_attributes():
- Column_definition::length means the full character length
- Column_definition::decimals means the fractional precision
Now everything gets set to (2) right in Column_definition_set_attributes().
The first key point of this commit is changing Type_extra_attributes in the way
that the pointer to a generic attribute is now "Type_generic_attributes*" -
a pointer to a new class with vitrual method type_handler().
Before this change the pointer to a generic attribute was
"void *m_attr_const_void_ptr", which was error prone, as allowed
to pass a pointer to a wrong structure without control.
Another key point is that the SET/ENUM data type related structures
are now attributed by the changed class Type_typelib_attributes,
which now looks as follows:
class Type_typelib_attributes: public Sql_alloc,
public Type_generic_attributes,
public TYPELIB
(with virtual method type_handler()), instead of being attributed by
TYPELIB directly.
Details:
- Using Column_definition's method typelib() where the member m_typelib
was used directly. The related lines change anyway, because the member
is renamed m_typelib_attr.
- Adding a new class Type_generic_attributes.
Deriving the following classes from it:
* Type_typelib_attributes
* sp_type_def
- sp_type_def does not derive from Type_handler_hybrid_field_type any more,
because the method type_handler() is now implemented virtually.
- Removing Type_extra_attributes::m_attr_const_void_ptr and
adding Type_extra_attributes::m_attr_const_generic_attributes_ptr instead -
a pointer to the new class Type_generic_attributes.
Renaming methods to set and read it according to the new data type name.
- Type_typelib_attributes now derives from TYPELIB instead of having
a pointer to TYPELIB.
- Adding a new class Type_typelib_ptr_attributes. It's a replacement for
the old implementation of Type_typelib_attributes.
Instead of deriving from Type_typelib_attributes, Field_enum now derives
from Type_typelib_ptr_attributes. The latter can store/read itself into/from
Type_extra_attributes. It's a bridge between the new Type_typelib_attributes
and Type_extra_attributes.
- Changing parameter data type in a few methods in Field_enum from
a pointer to TYPELIB to a pointer to Type_typelib_attributes.
- Removing typelib related methods from Type_extra_attributes.
Moving this functionality into Type_typelib_ptr_attributes and
Column_definition_attributes.
This turns Type_extra_attributes into a data structure independent
from any data type specific structures/methods.
- Adding methods:
Column_definition_attributes::typelib_attr() - Column_definition derives it
Column_definition_attributes::typelib() - Column_definition derives it
Type_typelib_ptr_attributes::typelib_attr() - Field_enum derives it
Type_typelib_ptr_attributes::typelib() - Field_enum derives it
- Renaming the member Create_field::save_interval into
Create_field::save_typelib_attr.
Changing its data type from a pointer to TYPELIB into a pointer
to Type_typelib_attributes pointer.
- Removing the method Type_typelib_attributes::store().
Adding Type_typelib_ptr_attributes::save_in_type_extra_attributes() instead.
The new method name makes the code more readable.
Year::year_precision(): Make static, so that VYear::VYear
and VYear_op::VYear_op() will avoid invoking this function with
an unnecessary "this" pointer to an uninitialized object.
removed:
* DES encryption
* --secure-auth
* --old
* spider table options: bfz, btt, cmd, ctp, cwg, isa, ilm, ios, smd, stc, stl
extended under old-mode:
* YEAR(2), still available when old-mode=2_DIGIT_YEAR
un-deprecated:
* keep_files_on_create, originally (MDEV-23570) the idea was to make it
TRUE and deprecate. It cannot be removed when FALSE, but TRUE breaks
mariabackup.aria_backup where a table is altered from Aria to InnoDB
during a backup, so both t.MAD/t.MAI and t.ibd gets into a backup.
Fixing the return type of Type_handler::Item_save_in_value() from
bool to void.
Adding a new method st_value::is_null().
This makes the code less confusing.
Item_singerow_subselect::fix_length_and_dec() incorrectly calculated
its Item::max_length when the underlying expression was Item_int.
The reason of the problem:
Item_int has an optimized max_length to make CONCAT(1) create a VARCHAR(1)
column rather than a VARCHAR(2) column. Its max_length does not include one
extra character for the sign in case the value is positive but the value
is not marked as Item::unsigned==true.
So copying max_length from the underlying Item_int (with value==9)
in cases like this:
SELECT CONCAT((SELECT 9 FROM t0));
was not correct.
Implementing a new virtual method
Type_handler::Item_type_std_attributes_generic(const Item *item)
- The default implementation just copies attributes from "item" as is.
- In case of Type_handler_int_result it evaluates max_length
using item->decimal_precision() rather than item->max_length.
This works correctly for both "optimized" items like Item_int and
non-"optimized" Items whose max_length includes +1 for the sign
in case of signed expressions.
all params are initialized to use Type_handler_null.
NULL params do not have a value to read from the packet buffer,
so their Item_param_set_param_func() should do nothing.
Type_handler_null inherits from Type_handler_string_result,
that is, Type_handler_null *must* override parent's
Item_param_set_param_func().
In commit fa7d4abf16
when the 16-bit type alias decimal_digits_t was introduced,
some incompatible use of the 32-bit uint data type was overlooked.
Only for converting Item_result_field::max_length (uint), we will use
explicit conversion.
Fixing a confusing error message:
Unknown column 'assoc_array_var' in 'unknown_method'
to a clearer:
FUNCTION/PROCEDURE assoc_array_var.unknown_method does not exist
- Checking that the key expression is compatible with the INDEX BY data type
for assignment in expressions:
assoc_array_variable(key_expr)
assoc_array_variable(key_expr).field
in all contexts: SELECT, assignment target, INTO target.
Raising an error in case it's not compatible.
- Disallowing non-constant expressions as a key,
as the key is evaluated during the fix_fields() time.
- Disallowing stored functions as a key:
assoc_array(stored_function())
assoc_array(stored_function()).field
The underlying MariaDB code is not ready to call a stored function
during the fix_fields() time. This will be fixed in a separate MDEV.
- Removing the move Assoc_array_data's constructor.
Using the usual constructor instead.
- Setting m_key.thread_specific and m_value.thread_specific to true
in the Assoc_array_data constructor. This is needed to get assoc array
element data counted by the @@session.memory_used status variable.
Adding DBUG_ASSERTs to make sure the thread_specific flag never
disappears in Assoc_array_data members.
- Removing my_free(item) from Field_assoc_array::element_by_key.
It was a remainder from an earlier patch version.
In the current patch version all Items behind an assoc array are
created on a mem_root. It's wrong to use my_free() with them.
- Adding a helper method Field_assoc_array::assoc_tree_search()
- Fixing assoc_array_var.delete() to work as a procedure
rather than a function. It does not need SELECT/DO any more.
- Fixing the crash in a few ctype_xxx tests, caused by the grammar change.
- Fixing compilation failure on Windows
- Adding a new method LEX::set_field_type_udt_or_typedef()
and removing duplicate code from sql_yacc.yy
- Renaming the grammar rule field_type_all_with_composites to
field_type_all_with_typedefs
- Removing the grammar rule assoc_array_index_types.
Changing the grammar to "INDEX_SYM BY field_type".
Removing the grammar rule field_type_all_with_record.
Allow field_type_all_with_typedefs as an assoc array element.
Catching wrong index and element data types has been moved to
Type_handler_assoc_array::Column_definition_set_attributes().
It raises an SQL error on things like:
* assoc array of assoc arrays in TABLE OF
* index by a non-supported types in INDEX BY
- Removing four methods:
* sp_type_def_list::type_defs_add_record()
* sp_type_def_list::type_defs_add_composite2()
* sp_pcontext::type_defs_declare_record()
* sp_type_def_list::type_defs_declare_composite2()
Adding two methods instead:
* sp_type_def_list::type_defs_add()
* sp_pcontext::type_defs_add()
This allows to get rid of the duplicate code detecting data type
declarations with the same name in the same sp_pcontext frame.
- Adding new methods:
* LEX::declare_type_assoc_array()
* LEX::LEX::declare_type_record()
They create a type specific sp_type_def_xxx and the call the generic
sp_pcontext::type_defs_add().
- m_key_def.sp_prepare_create_field() inside
Field_assoc_array::create_fields() is now called for all key data types
(not only for integers)
- Removing the assignment of key_def->charset in
Type_handler_assoc_array::sp_variable_declarations_finalize().
The charset is now evaluated in m_key_def.sp_prepare_create_field().
- Fixing Item_assoc_array::get_key() to set the character set of the "key"
to utf8mb3 instead of binary
- Fixing Field_assoc_array::copy_and_convert_key() to set the key length
limit in terms of the character length as specified in
INDEX BY VARCHAR(N), instead of octet length. This is needed to make
keys with multi-byte characters work correctly.
Also it now raises different errors depending on the reason of the
key conversion failures:
* ER_INVALID_CHARACTER_STRING
* ER_CANNOT_CONVERT_CHARACTER
- Changing the prototype for Type_handler_composite::key_to_lex_cstring() to
virtual LEX_CSTRING key_to_lex_cstring(THD *thd,
const sp_rcontext_addr &var,
Item **key,
String *buffer) const;
* Now it returns a LEX_CSTRING, instead of getting it as an out parameter.
* Gets an sp_rcontext_addr instead of "name" and "def"
* Gets a String buffer which can be used to be passed to val_str(),
or for character set conversion purposes.
- Removing Field_assoc_array::m_key_def, as all required information
is available from Field_assoc_array::m_key_field.
In Field_assoc_array::create_fields turning m_key_def to a local variable
key_def.
- Fixing Field_assoc_array::copy_and_convert_key() to follow MariaDB coding
style: only constants can be passed by-reference, not-constants should
be passed by-pointer.
- Adding DBUG_ASSERTs into Type_handler_assoc_array::get_item()
and Type_handler_assoc_array::get_or_create_item() that the passed
key in "name" is well formed according to the charset of INDEX BY.
- Changing the error ER_TOO_LONG_KEY to ER_WRONG_STRING_LENGTH.
The former prints length limit in bytes, which is not applicable
for INDEX BY values, because its limit is in characters.
Also, the latter is more verbose.
- Fixing the problem that these wrong uses of an assoc array variable:
BEGIN
assoc_var;
assoc_var(1);
END;
raised a weird error message:
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'assoc_var' in '(null)'
Now a more readable parse error is raised.
- Adding a "Duplicate key" warning for the cases when assigning
between two assoc arrays rejects some records due to different
collations in their INDEX BY key definitions.
- Disallow INDEX OF propagation from VARCHAR to TEXT.
The underlying code cannot handle TEXT.
Adding tests.
- Adding a helper class StringBufferKey to pass to val_str() when
a key value is evaluated.
Fixing all val_str() calls to val_str(&buffer), as the former is
not desirable.
- Fixing a wrong use of args[0]->null_value in
Item_func_assoc_array_exists::val_bool()
- Fixing a problem that using TABLE OF TEXT crashed the server.
Thanks to Iqbal Hassan for the proposed patch.
- Changes in Qualified_ident:
* Fixing the Qualified_ident constructors to get all parst as
Lex_ident_cli_st, rather than the first part as Lex_ident_cli_st
with the following parts Lex_ident_sys.
This makes the code more symmetric.
* Fixing the grammar in sql_yacc.yy accordinly.
* Fixing the data type storing the possition in the client query
from "const char *" to Lex_ident_cli.
* Adding a new method Qualified_ident::is_sane().
It allows to reduce the code side in sql_yacc.yy.
Thanks to Iqbal Hassan for the idea.
- Replacing qs_append() to append_ulonglong() in:
* Item_method_func::print()
* Item_splocal_assoc_array_element::print()
* Item_splocal_assoc_array_element_field::print()
These methods do not use reserve()/alloc(), so calling qs_append()
was wrong and caused a crash.
- Changing the output formats of these methods:
* Item_splocal_assoc_array_element::print()
* Item_splocal_assoc_array_element_field::print()
not to print the key two times.
Also moving the `@123` part (the variable offset) immediately
after the variabl name and before the `[key]` part.
- Fixing a memory leak happened when trying to insert a duplicate
key into an assoc array. Also adding a new "THD *" parameter to
Field_assoc_array::insert_element(). Thanks to Iqbal Hassan for the fix.
Adding a test into sp-assoc-array-ctype.test.
- In Field_assoc_array::create_fields: m_element_field->field_name is now
set for all element data types (not only for records).
This fixed a wrong variable name in warnings. Adding tests.
- Adding tests:
* Adding tests for assoc array elements in UNIONs.
* Copying from an assoc array with a varchar key
to an assoc array with a shorter varchar key.
* A relatively big associative array.
* Memory usage for x86_64.
* Package variable as assoc array keys.
* Character set conversion
* TABLE OF TEXT
* TABLE OF VARCHAR(>64k bytes) propagation to TABLE OF TEXT.
* TEXT element fields in an array of records.
* VARCHAR->TEXT propagation in elements in an array of records.
* Some more tests
This patch adds support for associative arrays in stored procedures
for sql_mode=ORACLE.
The syntax follows Oracle's PL/SQL syntax for associative arrays -
TYPE assoc_array_t IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(100) INDEX BY INTEGER;
or
TYPE assoc_array_t IS TABLE OF record_t INDEX BY VARCHAR2(100);
where record_t is a record type.
The following functions were added for associative arrays:
- COUNT - Retrieve the number of elements within the arra
- EXISTS - Check whether given key exists in the array
- FIRST - Retrieve the first key in the array
- LAST - Retrieve the last key in the array
- PRIOR - Retrieve the key before the given key
- NEXT - Retrieve the key after the given key
- DELETE - Remove the element with the given key or remove all elements
if no key is given
The arrays/elements can be initialized with the following methods:
- Constructor
i.e. array:= assoc_array_t('key1'=>1, 'key2'=>2, 'key3'=>3)
- Assignment
i.e. array(key):= record_t(1, 2)
- SELECT INTO
i.e. SELECT x INTO array(key)
TODOs:
- Nested tables are not supported yet.
i.e. TYPE assoc_array_t IS TABLE OF other_assoc_array_t INDEX BY INTEGER;
- Associative arrays comparisons are not supported yet.
- Moving the definition of "class Type_handler_row" into a new file
sql_type_row.h. Also moving *some* of its methods into sql_type_row.cc.
The rest of the methods will be moved in the patch for MDEV-34319.
Moving the definition of my_var_sp_row_field into sql_type_row.cc.
- Fixing the grammar for function_call_generic to get the first
production as "ident_cli_func" rather than "ident_func".
The upcoming patch needs to know the position of the function name
within the client query.
- Adding new data types to store data types defined by "TYPE" declarations:
* sp_type_def
* sp_type_def_list
sp_pcontext now derives from sp_type_def_list
- A new virtual method in Field:
virtual Item_field *make_item_field_spvar(THD *thd,
const Spvar_definition &def);
Using it in sp_rcontext::init_var_items().
- Fixing my_var_sp to get sp_rcontext_addr in the parameter
instead of two separate parameters (rcontext_handler + offset).
- Adding new virtual methods in my_var:
virtual bool set_row(THD *thd, List<Item> &select_list);
It's used when a select_list record is assigned to a
single composite variable, such as ROW, specified in the INTO clause.
Using it in select_dumpvar::send_data().
virtual bool check_assignability(THD *thd,
const List<Item> &select_list,
bool *assign_as_row) const;
It's used to check if the select_list is compatible with
a single INTO variable, in select_dumpvar::prepare().
- Fixing LEX methods create_outvar() to get identifiers
a Lex_ident_sys_st values instead of generic LEX_CSTRING values.
- Adding virtual methods in Type_handler:
// Used in Item_func_null_predicate::check_arguments()
virtual bool has_null_predicate() const;
// Used in LEX::sp_variable_declarations_finalize()
virtual bool sp_variable_declarations_finalize(THD *thd,
LEX *lex, int nvars,
const Column_definition &def)
const;
// Handle SELECT 1 INTO spvar;
virtual my_var *make_outvar(THD *thd,
const Lex_ident_sys_st &name,
const sp_rcontext_addr &addr,
sp_head *sphead,
bool validate_only) const;
// Handle SELECT 1 INTO spvar.field;
virtual my_var *make_outvar_field(THD *thd,
const Lex_ident_sys_st &name,
const sp_rcontext_addr &addr,
const Lex_ident_sys_st &field,
sp_head *sphead,
bool validate_only) const;
// create the value in: DECLARE var rec_t DEFAULT rec_t(1,'c');
virtual Item *make_typedef_constructor_item(THD *thd,
const sp_type_def &def,
List<Item> *arg_list) const;
- A new helper method:
Row_definition_list *Row_definition_list::deep_copy(THD *thd) const;
The patch for SYS_REFCURSOR (MDEV-20034) overrode these methods:
- Item_func_case_searched::check_arguments()
- Item_func_if::check_arguments()
to validate WHEN-style arguments (e.g. args[0] in case of IF) for being
able to return a boolean result.
However, this unintentionally removed the test for the THEN-style arguments
that they are not expressions of the ROW data type.
This led to a crash inside Type_handler_hybrid_field_type::aggregate_for_result
on a DBUG_ASSERT that arguments are not of the ROW data type.
Fix:
The fix restores blocking ROW expressions in the not supported cases,
to avoid the DBUG_ASSERT and to raise an SQL error instead.
Blocking ROW_RESULT expressions is done per Item_func_case_expression
descendant individually, instead of blocking any ROW_RESULT arguments
at the Item_func_case_expression level.
The fix is done taking into account the upcoming patch for associative arrays
(MDEV-34319). It should be possible to pass associative array expressions into
some hybrid type functions, where ROW type expressions are not possible.
As a side effect, some lecagy ER_OPERAND_COLUMNS changed to
a newer ER_ILLEGAL_PARAMETER_DATA_TYPE_FOR_OPERATION
Changes in the top affected class Item_func_case_expression:
- item_func.h:
Overriding Item_func_case_expression::check_arguments() to return false,
without checking any arguments. Descendant validate arguments
in a various different ways. No needs to block all non-scalar data type at
this level, to prevent disallowing associative arrays.
Changes in descendants:
- item_cmpfunc.cc:
Adding a test in Item_func_case_simple::aggregate_switch_and_when_arguments()
preventing passing ROW_RESULT expression in predicant and WHEN in a
simple CASE:
CASE predicant WHEN when1 THEN .. WHEN when2 THEN .. END;
This is not supported yet. Should be preferrably fixed before MDEV-34319.
- item_cmpfunc.cc:
Calling args[0]->type_handler()->Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes()
from Item_func_nullif::fix_length_and_dec().
This prevents a ROW expression to be passed to args[0] of NULLIF().
But will allow to pass associative arrays.
args[1] is still only checked to be comparable with args[0].
No needs to add additional tests for it.
- item_cmpfunc.h:
Adding a call for Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes() in
Item_func_case_abbreviation2::cache_type_info().
This prevents calling the descendant functions with
a ROW expression in combination with an explicit NULL
in the THEN-style arguments (but will allow to pass associative arrays):
IFNULL(row_expression, NULL)
IFNULL(NULL, row_expression)
IF(switch, row_expression, NULL)
IF(switch, NULL, row_expression)
NVL2(switch, row_expression, NULL)
NVL2(switch, NULL, row_expression)
Adding a THD* argument into involved methods.
- item_cmpfunc.h:
Overriding Item_func_case_abbreviation2_switch::check_arguments() to
check that the first argument in IF() and NVL2() can return bool.
Removing Item_func_if::check_arguments(), as it become redundant.
- sql_type.cc:
Fixing sql_type.cc not to disallow items[0] with ROW_RESULT.
This makes it call Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes() at the end,
which block ROW arguments into THEN-style arguments of hybrid functions.
But this will allow to pass Type_handler_assoc_array expressions.
- sql_type.cc:
Changing Type_handler_row::Item_hybrid_func_fix_attributes to raise the
ER_ILLEGAL_PARAMETER_DATA_TYPE_FOR_OPERATION error instead of the DBUG_ASSERT.
This patch adds support for SYS_REFCURSOR (a weakly typed cursor)
for both sql_mode=ORACLE and sql_mode=DEFAULT.
Works as a regular stored routine variable, parameter and return value:
- can be passed as an IN parameter to stored functions and procedures
- can be passed as an INOUT and OUT parameter to stored procedures
- can be returned from a stored function
Note, strongly typed REF CURSOR will be added separately.
Note, to maintain dependencies easier, some parts of sql_class.h
and item.h were moved to new header files:
- select_results.h:
class select_result_sink
class select_result
class select_result_interceptor
- sp_cursor.h:
class sp_cursor_statistics
class sp_cursor
- sp_rcontext_handler.h
class Sp_rcontext_handler and its descendants
The implementation consists of the following parts:
- A new class sp_cursor_array deriving from Dynamic_array
- A new class Statement_rcontext which contains data shared
between sub-statements of a compound statement.
It has a member m_statement_cursors of the sp_cursor_array data type,
as well as open cursor counter. THD inherits from Statement_rcontext.
- A new data type handler Type_handler_sys_refcursor in plugins/type_cursor/
It is designed to store uint16 references -
positions of the cursor in THD::m_statement_cursors.
- Type_handler_sys_refcursor suppresses some derived numeric features.
When a SYS_REFCURSOR variable is used as an integer an error is raised.
- A new abstract class sp_instr_fetch_cursor. It's needed to share
the common code between "OPEN cur" (for static cursors) and
"OPER cur FOR stmt" (for SYS_REFCURSORs).
- New sp_instr classes:
* sp_instr_copen_by_ref - OPEN sys_ref_curor FOR stmt;
* sp_instr_cfetch_by_ref - FETCH sys_ref_cursor INTO targets;
* sp_instr_cclose_by_ref - CLOSE sys_ref_cursor;
* sp_instr_destruct_variable - to destruct SYS_REFCURSOR variables when
the execution goes out of the BEGIN..END block
where SYS_REFCURSOR variables are declared.
- New methods in LEX:
* sp_open_cursor_for_stmt - handles "OPEN sys_ref_cursor FOR stmt".
* sp_add_instr_fetch_cursor - "FETCH cur INTO targets" for both
static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs.
* sp_close - handles "CLOSE cur" both for static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs.
- Changes in cursor functions to handle both static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs:
* Item_func_cursor_isopen
* Item_func_cursor_found
* Item_func_cursor_notfound
* Item_func_cursor_rowcount
- A new system variable @@max_open_cursors - to limit the number
of cursors (static and SYS_REFCURSORs) opened at the same time.
Its allowed range is [0-65536], with 50 by default.
- A new virtual method Type_handler::can_return_bool() telling
if calling item->val_bool() is allowed for Items of this data type,
or if otherwise the "Illegal parameter for operation" error should be raised
at fix_fields() time.
- New methods in Sp_rcontext_handler:
* get_cursor()
* get_cursor_by_ref()
- A new class Sp_rcontext_handler_statement to handle top level statement
wide cursors which are shared by all substatements.
- A new virtual method expr_event_handler() in classes Item and Field.
It's needed to close (and make available for a new OPEN)
unused THD::m_statement_cursors elements which do not have any references
any more. It can happen in various moments in time, e.g.
* after evaluation parameters of an SQL routine
* after assigning a cursor expression into a SYS_REFCURSOR variable
* when leaving a BEGIN..END block with SYS_REFCURSOR variables
* after setting OUT/INOUT routine actual parameters from formal
parameters.
