The parser is allocating Item_field for references by name in ORDER BY
expressions. Such expressions however may point not only to Item_field
in the select list (or to a table column) but also to an arbitrary Item.
This causes Item_field::fix_fields to throw an error about missing
column.
The fix substitutes Item_field for the reference with an Item_ref when
not pointing to Item_field.
When we write 'query=...' string to a frm file for views on a slave,
indentifiers are not properly quoted due to missing OPTION_QUOTE_SHOW_CREATE
flag in the thd->options.
Fix: properly set thd->options for the slave thread.
Necessary changes if one of the test scripts is to be used with a RPM installation (bug#17194).
This change handles finding the server and the other programs,
but it does not solve the problem to get a writable "var" directory.
If we want to avoid world-writable directories below "/usr/share/mysql-test" (and we do!),
any automatic solution would require fixed decisions which may not match the local installation.
For the Perl script, use "--vardir"; for the shell script, create "mysql-test/var" manually.
(4.1 version, with post-review fixes)
The fix for another Bug (6439) limited FROM_UNIXTIME() to
TIMESTAMP_MAX_VALUE which is 2145916799 or 2037-12-01 23:59:59 GMT,
however unix timestamp in general is not considered to be limited
by this value. All dates up to power(2,31)-1 are valid.
This patch extends allowed TIMESTAMP range so, that max
TIMESTAMP value is power(2,31)-1. It also corrects
FROM_UNIXTIME() and UNIX_TIMESTAMP() functions, so that
max allowed UNIX_TIMESTAMP() is power(2,31)-1. FROM_UNIXTIME()
is fixed accordingly to allow conversion of dates up to
2038-01-19 03:14:07 UTC. The patch also fixes CONVERT_TZ()
function to allow extended range of dates.
The main problem solved in the patch is possible overflows
of variables, used in broken-time representation to time_t
conversion (required for UNIX_TIMESTAMP).
sync using replicate-wild-ignore-table
Problem: changes in character set variables
before an action on an replication-ignored table
makes slave to forget new variable values.
Fix: initialize one_shot variables only when
4.1 -> 5.x replication is running.
This is a performance issue for queries with subqueries evaluation
of which requires filesort.
Allocation of memory for the sort buffer at each evaluation of a
subquery may take a significant amount of time if the buffer is rather big.
With the fix we allocate the buffer at the first evaluation of the
subquery and reuse it at each subsequent evaluation.
Evaluate "NULL IN (SELECT ...)" in a special way: Disable pushed-down
conditions and their "consequences":
= Do full table scans instead of unique_[index_subquery] lookups.
= Change appropriate "ref_or_null" accesses to full table scans in
subquery's joins.
Also cache value of NULL IN (SELECT ...) if the SELECT is not correlated
wrt any upper select.
