The lock_type is upgrade to TL_WRITE from TL_WRITE_DELAYED for
INSERT DELAYED when inserting multi values in one statement.
It's safe. But it causes an unsafe warning in SBR.
Make INSERT DELAYED safe by logging it as INSERT without DELAYED.
== MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG
A MIN/MAX() function with a subquery as its argument could lead
to a debug assertion on debug builds or wrong data on release
ones.
The problem was a combination of the following factors:
- Item_sum_hybrid::fix_fields() might use the argument
(args[0]) to calculate 'hybrid_field_type' which was later used
to decide how the data should be sent to the client.
- Item_sum::make_field() might use the argument again to
calculate the field's type when sending result set metadata to
the client.
- The argument could be changed in between these two calls via
Item::set_arg() leading to inconsistent metadata being
reported.
Here is what was happening for the bug's test case:
1. Item_sum_hybrid::fix_fields() calculates hybrid_field_type
as MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG based on args[0] which is an
Item::SUBSELECT_ITEM at that time.
2. A temporary table is created to execute the
query. create_tmp_field_from_item() creates a Field_long object
according to the subselect's max_length.
3. The subselect item in Item_sum_hybrid is replaced by the
Item_field object referencing the newly created Field_long.
4. Item_sum::make_field() rightfully returns the
MYSQL_TYPE_LONG type when calculating the result set metadata.
5. When sending the actual data, Item::send() relies on the
virtual field_type() function which in our case returns
previously calculated hybrid_field_type == MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG.
It looks like the only solution is to never refer to the
argument's metadata after the result metadata has been
calculated in fix_fields(), since the argument itself may be
different by then. In this sense, Item_sum::make_field() should
never be used, because it may rely on the argument's metadata
and is only called after fix_fields(). The "default"
implementation in Item::make_field() should be used instead as
it relies only on field_type(), but not on the argument's type.
Fixed by removing Item_sum::make_field() so that the superclass
implementation Item::make_field() is always used.
Bug#46754: 'rows' field doesn't reflect partition pruning
The EXPLAIN's result in 'rows' field
was evaluated to number of rows when the table was opened
(not from the table cache) and only the partitions left
after pruning was updated with its correct number
of rows.
The evaluation of the 'rows' field was using handler::records()
which is a potentially expensive call, and ignores the partitioning
pruning.
The fix was to use the handlers stats.records after updating it
with ::info(HA_STATUS_VARIABLE) instead.
Problem: trailing spaces were stripped using 8-bit code,
so the truncation result length was incorrect, which led
to an assertion failure.
Fix: using multi-byte safe code.

Queries with nested joins could cause an infinite loop in the
server when used from SP/PS.
When flattening nested joins, simplify_joins() tracks if the
name resolution list needs to be updated by setting
fix_name_res to TRUE if the current loop iteration has done any
transformations to the join table list. The problem was that
the flag was not reset before the next loop iteration leading
to unnecessary "fixing" of the name resolution list which in
turn could lead to a loop (i.e. circularly-linked part) in that
list. This was causing problems on subsequent execution when
used together with stored procedures or prepared statements.
Fixed by making sure fix_name_res is reset on every loop
iteration.
After fix for bug 39653 the shortest available secondary index was used for
full table scan. Primary clustered key was used only if no secondary index
can be used. However, when chosen secondary index includes all fields of the
table being scanned it's better to use primary index since the amount of
data to scan is the same but the primary index is clustered.
Now the find_shortest_key function takes this into account.
Before this fix, the server did not recognize 'short' (as in -a)
options but only 'long' (as in --ansi) options
in the startup command line, due to earlier changes in 5.5
introduced for the performance schema.
The root cause is that handle_options() did not honor the
my_getopt_skip_unknown flag when parsing 'short' options.
The fix changes handle_options(), so that my_getopt_skip_unknown is
honored in all cases.
Note that there are limitations to this,
see the added doxygen documentation in handle_options().
The current usage of handle_options() by the server to
parse early performance schema options fits within the limitations.
This has been enforced by an assert for PARSE_EARLY options, for safety.
Before this fix, the ha_read_last_count status variable was defined and
updated internally, for never exposed as a system variable.
This fix exposes the system variable as "Handler_read_last",
for completness of the Handler_read_* system variables interface.
Adjusted tests results accordingly.

The assertion failure was correct because the 'width' argument
of my_gcvt() has the signed integer type, whereas the unsigned
value UINT_MAX32 was being passed by the caller
(Field_double::val_str()) leading to a negative width in
my_gcvt().
The following chain of problems was found by further analysis:
1. The display width for a floating point number is calculated
in Field_double::val_str() as either field_length or the
maximum possible length of string representation of a floating
point number, whichever is greater. Since in the bug's test
case field_length is UINT_MAX32, we get the same value as the
display width. This does not make any sense because for numeric
values field_length only matters for ZEROFILL columns,
otherwise it does not make sense to allocate that much memory
just to print a number. Field_float::val_str() has a similar
problem.
2. Even if the above wasn't the case, we would still get a
crash on a slightly different test case when trying to allocate
UINT_MAX32 bytes with String::alloc() because the latter does
not handle such large input values correctly due to alignment
overflows.
3. Even when String::alloc() is fixed to return an error when
an alignment overflow occurs, there is still a problem because
almost no callers check its return value, and
Field_double::val_str() is not an exception (same for
Field_float::val_str()).
4. Even if all of the above wasn't the case, creating a
Field_double object with UINT_MAX32 as its field_length does
not make much sense either, since the .frm code limits it to
MAX_FIELD_CHARLENGTH (255) bytes. Such a beast can only be
created by create_tmp_field_from_item() from an Item with
REAL_RESULT as its result_type() and UINT_MAX32 as its
max_length.
5. For the bug's test case, the above condition (REAL_RESULT
Item with max_length = UINT_MAX32) was a result of
Item_func_if::fix_length_and_dec() "shortcutting" aggregation
of argument types when one of the arguments was a constant
NULL. In this case, the attributes of the aggregated type were
simply copied from the other, non-NULL argument, but max_length
was still calculated as per the general, non-shortcut case, by
choosing the greatest of argument's max_length, which is
obviously not correct.
The patch addresses all of the above problems, even though
fixing the assertion failure for the particular test case would
require only a subset of the above problems to be solved.

Before this fix, some tests failed due to lack of instrumentation slots
in the performance schema, because the default sizing was too low.
Now that more code has been instrumented, the default sizing has to be adjusted
to match the current instrumentation consumption.
This change:
- increases the number of rwlock classes from 20 to 30,
- increases the number of rwlock and mutex instances to 1 million.
Both are to account for the volume of data instrumented
when the innodb storage engine is used (because of the innodb buffer pool).
Adjusted the test output accordingly.

Disabled --ps-protocol for this part of the test as INSERT
DELAYED simply doesn't work with it under LOCK TABLES.
Queries involving predicates of the form "const NOT BETWEEN
not_indexed_column AND indexed_column" could return wrong data
due to incorrect handling by the range optimizer.
For "c NOT BETWEEN f1 AND f2" predicates, get_mm_tree()
produces a disjunction of the SEL_ARG trees for "f1 > c" and
"f2 < c". If one of the trees is empty (i.e. one of the
arguments is not sargable) the resulting tree should be empty
as well, since the whole expression in this case is not
sargable.
The above logic is implemented in get_mm_tree() as follows. The
initial state of the resulting tree is NULL (aka empty). We
then iterate through arguments and compute the corresponding
SEL_ARG tree (either "f1 > c" or "f2 < c"). If the resulting
tree is NULL, it is simply replaced by the generated
tree. Otherwise it is replaced by a disjunction of itself and
the generated tree. The obvious flaw in this implementation is
that if the first argument is not sargable and thus produces a
NULL tree, the resulting tree will simply be replaced by the
tree for the second argument. As a result, "c NOT BETWEEN f1
AND f2" will end up as just "f2 < c".
Fixed by adding a check so that when the first argument
produces an empty tree for the NOT BETWEEN case, the loop is
aborted with an empty tree as a result. The whole idea of using
a loop for 2 arguments does not make much sense, but it was
probably used to avoid code duplication for several BETWEEN
variants.
within query
The server could crash after materializing a derived table
which requires a temporary table for grouping.
When destroying the temporary table used to execute a query for
a derived table, JOIN::destroy() did not clean up Item_fields
pointing to fields in the temporary table. This led to
dereferencing a dangling pointer when printing out the items
tree later in the outer SELECT.
The solution is an addendum to the patch for bug37362: in
addition to cleaning up items in tmp_all_fields3, do the same
for items in tmp_all_fields1, since now we have an example
where this is necessary.
The Item_cache_datetime::val_str function wasn't taking into account that time
could be negative. This led to failed assertion.
Now Item_cache_datetime::val_str correctly converts negative time values
from integer to string representation.
The problem was that deadlocks involving INSERT DELAYED were not detected.
The reason for this is that two threads are involved in INSERT DELAYED:
the connection thread and the handler thread. The connection thread would
wait while the handler thread acquired locks and opened the table.
In essence, this adds an edge to the wait-for-graph between the
connection thread and the handler thread that the deadlock detector is
unaware of. Therefore many deadlocks involving INSERT DELAYED were not
detected.
This patch fixes the problem by having the connection thread acquire the
metadata lock the table before starting the handler thread. This allows the
deadlock detector to detect any possible deadlocks resulting from trying to
acquire a metadata lock the table. If a metadata lock is successfully acquired,
the handler thread is started and given a copy of the ticket representing the
metadata lock. When the handler thread then tries to lock and open the table,
it will find that it already has the metadata lock and therefore not acquire
any new metadata locks.
Test cases added to delayed.test.
Problem: ENUM columns are sorted and distributed according to their
numeric value, but Field::hash() incorrectly passed string character set
(utf32) in combination with numeric value to the hash function,
which made assertion fail.
Fix: pass "binary" character set in combination with numeric value
to the hash function.

The ALTER PARTITION and SELECT seemed to be deadlocked
when having innodb_thread_concurrency = 1.
Problem was that there was unreleased latches
in the ALTER PARTITION thread which was needed
by the SELECT thread to be able to continue.
Solution was to release the latches by commit
before requesting upgrade to exclusive MDL lock.
