A mixture of a multi-byte *TEXT column and a short binary column
produced a too large column.
For example, COALESCE(tinytext_utf8mb4, short_varbinary)
produced a BLOB column instead of an expected TINYBLOB.
- Adding a virtual method Type_all_attributes::character_octet_length(),
returning max_length by default.
- Overriding Item_field::character_octet_length() to extract
the octet length from the underlying Field.
- Overriding Item_ref::character_octet_length() to extract
the octet length from the references Item (e.g. as VIEW fields).
- Fixing Type_numeric_attributes::find_max_octet_length() to
take the octet length using the new method character_octet_length()
instead of accessing max_length directly.
Functions extracting non-negative datetime components:
- YEAR(dt), EXTRACT(YEAR FROM dt)
- QUARTER(td), EXTRACT(QUARTER FROM dt)
- MONTH(dt), EXTRACT(MONTH FROM dt)
- WEEK(dt), EXTRACT(WEEK FROM dt)
- HOUR(dt),
- MINUTE(dt),
- SECOND(dt),
- MICROSECOND(dt),
- DAYOFYEAR(dt)
- EXTRACT(YEAR_MONTH FROM dt)
did not set their max_length properly, so in the DECIMAL
context they created a too small DECIMAL column, which
led to the 'Out of range value' error.
The problem is that most of these functions historically
returned the signed INT data type.
There were two simple ways to fix these functions:
1. Add +1 to max_length.
But this would also change their size in the string context
and create too long VARCHAR columns, with +1 excessive size.
2. Preserve max_length, but change the data type from INT to INT UNSIGNED.
But this would break backward compatibility.
Also, using UNSIGNED is generally not desirable,
it's better to stay with signed when possible.
This fix implements another solution, which it makes all these functions
work well in all contexts: int, decimal, string.
Fix details:
- Adding a new special class Type_handler_long_ge0 - the data type
handler for expressions which:
* should look like normal signed INT
* but which known not to return negative values
Expressions handled by Type_handler_long_ge0 store in Item::max_length
only the number of digits, without adding +1 for the sign.
- Fixing Item_extract to use Type_handler_long_ge0
for non-negative datetime components:
YEAR, YEAR_MONTH, QUARTER, MONTH, WEEK
- Adding a new abstract class Item_long_ge0_func, for functions
returning non-negative datetime components.
Item_long_ge0_func uses Type_handler_long_ge0 as the type handler.
The class hierarchy now looks as follows:
Item_long_ge0_func
Item_long_func_date_field
Item_func_to_days
Item_func_dayofmonth
Item_func_dayofyear
Item_func_quarter
Item_func_year
Item_long_func_time_field
Item_func_hour
Item_func_minute
Item_func_second
Item_func_microsecond
- Cleanup: EXTRACT(QUARTER FROM dt) created an excessive VARCHAR column
in string context. Changing its length from 2 to 1.
During the 10.5->10.6 merge please use the 10.6 code on conflicts.
This is the 10.5 version of the patch (a backport of the 10.6 version).
Unlike 10.6 version, it makes changes in plugin/type_inet/sql_type_inet.*
rather than in sql/sql_type_fixedbin.h
Item_bool_rowready_func2, Item_func_between, Item_func_in
did not check if a not-NULL argument of an arbitrary data type
can produce a NULL value on conversion to INET6.
This caused a crash on DBUG_ASSERT() in conversion failures,
because the function returned SQL NULL for something that
has Item::maybe_null() equal to false.
Adding setting NULL-ability in such cases.
Details:
- Removing the code in Item_func::setup_args_and_comparator()
performing character set aggregation with optional narrowing.
This aggregation is done inside Arg_comparator::set_cmp_func_string().
So this code was redundant
- Removing Item_func::setup_args_and_comparator() as it git simplified to
just to two lines:
convert_const_compared_to_int_field(thd);
return cmp->set_cmp_func(thd, this, &args[0], &args[1], true);
Using these lines directly in:
- Item_bool_rowready_func2::fix_length_and_dec()
- Item_func_nullif::fix_length_and_dec()
- Adding a new virtual method:
- Type_handler::Item_bool_rowready_func2_fix_length_and_dec().
- Adding tests detecting if the data type conversion can return SQL NULL into
the following methods of Type_handler_inet6:
- Item_bool_rowready_func2_fix_length_and_dec
- Item_func_between_fix_length_and_dec
- Item_func_in_fix_comparator_compatible_types

When aggregating pairs BIT+NULL and NULL+BIT for result, e.g.
in COALESCE(), preserve the BIT data type (ignore explicit NULLs).
The same fix applied to YEAR.
Problem:
UNIX_TIMESTAMP() called for a expression of the TIME data type
returned NULL.
Inside Type_handler_timestamp_common::Item_val_native_with_conversion
the call for item->get_date() did not convert TIME to DATETIME
automatically (because it does not have to, by design).
As a result, Type_handler_timestamp_common::TIME_to_native() received
a MYSQL_TIME value with zero date 0000-00-00 and therefore returned "true"
(indicating SQL NULL value).
Fix:
Removing the call for item->get_date().
Instantiating Datetime(item) instead.
This forces automatic TIME to DATETIME conversion
(unless @@old_mode is zero_date_time_cast).
Precision should be kept below DECIMAL_MAX_SCALE for computations.
It can be bigger in Item_decimal. I'd fix this too but it changes the
existing behaviour so problemmatic to ix.
Hybrid functions (IF, COALESCE, etc) did not preserve the JSON property
from their arguments. The same problem was repeatable for single row subselects.
The problem happened because the method Item::is_json_type() was inconsistently
implemented across the Item hierarchy. For example, Item_hybrid_func
and Item_singlerow_subselect did not override is_json_type().
Solution:
- Removing Item::is_json_type()
- Implementing specific JSON type handlers:
Type_handler_string_json
Type_handler_varchar_json
Type_handler_tiny_blob_json
Type_handler_blob_json
Type_handler_medium_blob_json
Type_handler_long_blob_json
- Reusing the existing data type infrastructure to pass JSON
type handlers across all item types, including classes Item_hybrid_func
and Item_singlerow_subselect. Note, these two classes themselves do not
need any changes!
- Extending the data type infrastructure so data types can inherit
their properties (e.g. aggregation rules) from their base data types.
E.g. VARCHAR/JSON acts as VARCHAR, LONGTEXT/JSON acts as LONGTEXT
when mixed to a non-JSON data type. This is done by:
- adding virtual method Type_handler::type_handler_base()
- adding a helper class Type_handler_pair
- refactoring Type_handler_hybrid_field_type methods
aggregate_for_result(), aggregate_for_min_max(),
aggregate_for_num_op() to use Type_handler_pair.
This change also fixes:
MDEV-27361 Hybrid functions with JSON arguments do not send format metadata
Also, adding mtr tests for JSON replication. It was not covered yet.
And the current patch changes the replication code slightly.
This change removed 68 explict strlen() calls from the code.
The following renames was done to ensure we don't use the old names
when merging code from earlier releases, as using the new variables
for print function could result in crashes:
- charset->csname renamed to charset->cs_name
- charset->name renamed to charset->coll_name
Almost everything where mechanical changes except:
- Changed to use the new Protocol::store(LEX_CSTRING..) when possible
- Changed to use field->store(LEX_CSTRING*, CHARSET_INFO*) when possible
- Changed to use String->append(LEX_CSTRING&) when possible
Other things:
- There where compiler issues with ensuring that all character set names
points to the same string: gcc doesn't allow one to use integer constants
when defining global structures (constant char * pointers works fine).
To get around this, I declared defines for each character set name
length.
Changes:
- To detect automatic strlen() I removed the methods in String that
uses 'const char *' without a length:
- String::append(const char*)
- Binary_string(const char *str)
- String(const char *str, CHARSET_INFO *cs)
- append_for_single_quote(const char *)
All usage of append(const char*) is changed to either use
String::append(char), String::append(const char*, size_t length) or
String::append(LEX_CSTRING)
- Added STRING_WITH_LEN() around constant string arguments to
String::append()
- Added overflow argument to escape_string_for_mysql() and
escape_quotes_for_mysql() instead of returning (size_t) -1 on overflow.
This was needed as most usage of the above functions never tested the
result for -1 and would have given wrong results or crashes in case
of overflows.
- Added Item_func_or_sum::func_name_cstring(), which returns LEX_CSTRING.
Changed all Item_func::func_name()'s to func_name_cstring()'s.
The old Item_func_or_sum::func_name() is now an inline function that
returns func_name_cstring().str.
- Changed Item::mode_name() and Item::func_name_ext() to return
LEX_CSTRING.
- Changed for some functions the name argument from const char * to
to const LEX_CSTRING &:
- Item::Item_func_fix_attributes()
- Item::check_type_...()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_item_collations()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_item_set_converter()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_arg_charsets...()
- Type_handler_hybrid_field_type::aggregate_for_result()
- Type_handler_geometry::check_type_geom_or_binary()
- Type_handler::Item_func_or_sum_illegal_param()
- Predicant_to_list_comparator::add_value_skip_null()
- Predicant_to_list_comparator::add_value()
- cmp_item_row::prepare_comparators()
- cmp_item_row::aggregate_row_elements_for_comparison()
- Cursor_ref::print_func()
- Removes String_space() as it was only used in one cases and that
could be simplified to not use String_space(), thanks to the fixed
my_vsnprintf().
- Added some const LEX_CSTRING's for common strings:
- NULL_clex_str, DATA_clex_str, INDEX_clex_str.
- Changed primary_key_name to a LEX_CSTRING
- Renamed String::set_quick() to String::set_buffer_if_not_allocated() to
clarify what the function really does.
- Rename of protocol function:
bool store(const char *from, CHARSET_INFO *cs) to
bool store_string_or_null(const char *from, CHARSET_INFO *cs).
This was done to both clarify the difference between this 'store' function
and also to make it easier to find unoptimal usage of store() calls.
- Added Protocol::store(const LEX_CSTRING*, CHARSET_INFO*)
- Changed some 'const char*' arrays to instead be of type LEX_CSTRING.
- class Item_func_units now used LEX_CSTRING for name.
Other things:
- Fixed a bug in mysql.cc:construct_prompt() where a wrong escape character
in the prompt would cause some part of the prompt to be duplicated.
- Fixed a lot of instances where the length of the argument to
append is known or easily obtain but was not used.
- Removed some not needed 'virtual' definition for functions that was
inherited from the parent. I added override to these.
- Fixed Ordered_key::print() to preallocate needed buffer. Old code could
case memory overruns.
- Simplified some loops when adding char * to a String with delimiters.
This was done to simplify copying of with_* flags
Other things:
- Changed Flags to C++ enums, which enables gdb to print
out bit values for the flags. This also enables compiler
errors if one tries to manipulate a non existing bit in
a variable.
- Added set_maybe_null() as a shortcut as setting the
MAYBE_NULL flags was used in a LOT of places.
- Renamed PARAM flag to SP_VAR to ensure it's not confused with persistent
statement parameters.
One should instead use Item::fixed() and Item::with_subquery()
Removed Item::is_fixed() and has_subquery() and did the following replace:
replace is_fixed() fixed() -- *.*
replace 'has_subquery()' 'with_subquery()' -- *.*
- Added THD argument to functions that calls current_thd() or
new without a mem_root argument:
make_same(), set_comparator_func(), set_cmp_func(), set_cmp_func*(),
set_aggregator() and prepare_sum_aggregators()
- Changed "new Class" to "new (thd->mem_root) Class"
Almost all changes mechanical, no logic changes.
The reason for the change is that neither clang or gcc can do efficient
code when several bit fields are change at the same time or when copying
one or more bits between identical bit fields.
Updated bits explicitely with & and | is MUCH more efficient than what
current compilers can do.
The problem was that when one used String::alloc() to allocate a string,
the String ensures that there is space for an extra NULL byte in the
buffer and if not, reallocates the string. This is a problem with the
String::set_int() that calls alloc(21), which forces extra
malloc/free calls to happen.
- We do not anymore re-allocate String if alloc() is called with the
Allocated_length. This reduces number of malloc() allocations,
especially one big re-allocation in Protocol::send_result_Set_metadata()
for almost every query that produced a result to the connnected client.
- Avoid extra mallocs when using LONGLONG_BUFFER_SIZE
This can now be done as alloc() doesn't increase buffers if new length is
not bigger than old one.
- c_ptr() is redesigned to be safer (but a bit longer) than before.
- Remove wrong usage of c_ptr_quick()
c_ptr_quick() was used in many cases to get the pointer to the used
buffer, even when it didn't need to be \0 terminated. In this case
ptr() is a better substitute.
Another problem with c_ptr_quick() is that it did not guarantee that
the string would be \0 terminated.
- item_val_str(), an API function not used currently by the server,
now always returns a null terminated string (before it didn't always
do that).
- Ensure that all String allocations uses STRING_PSI_MEMORY_KEY. The old
mixed usage of performance keys caused assert's when String buffers
where shrunk.
- Binary_string::shrink() is simplifed
- Fixed bug in String(const char *str, size_t len, CHARSET_INFO *cs) that
used Binary_string((char *) str, len) instead of Binary_string(str,len).
- Changed argument to String() creations and String.set() functions to use
'const char*' instead of 'char*'. This ensures that Alloced_length is
not set, which gives safety against someone trying to change the
original string. This also would allow us to use !Alloced_length in
c_ptr() if needed.
- Changed string_ptr_cmp() to use memcmp() instead of c_ptr() to avoid
a possible malloc during string comparision.
aspects of decimals and integers
For fields and Item's uint8 should be good enough. After
discussions with Alexander Barkov we choose uint16 (for now)
as some format functions may accept +256 digits.
The reason for this patch was to make the usage and storage of decimal
digits simlar. Before this patch decimals was stored/used as uint8,
int and uint. The lengths for numbers where also using a lot of
different types.
Changed most decimal variables and functions to use the new typedef.
squash! af7f09106b6c1dc20ae8c480bff6fd22d266b184
Use decimal_digits_t for all aspects of digits (total, precision
and scale), both for decimals and integers.
