The LGPL license is used in some legacy code, and to
adhere to current licensing polity, we remove those

remaining LGPL code so it will be GPL licensed from
now on.
Note: This patch only removed LGPL licensed files
in MySQL 5.1, and is the second of a set of
patches to remove LGPL from all trees.

If the expression for a virtual column of table contained datetime
comparison then the execution of the second query that used this
virtual column caused a crash. It happened because the execution
of the first query that used this virtual column inserted a cached
item into the expression tree. The cached tree was allocated in
the statement memory while the expression tree was allocated in
the table memory.
Now the cached items that are inserted into expressions for virtual
columns with datetime comparisons are always allocated in the same
mem_root as the expressions for virtual columns. So now the inserted
cached items are valid for any queries that use these virtual columns.

for InnoDB
The class Field_bit_as_char stores the metadata for the
field incorrecly because bytes_in_rec and bit_len are set
to (field_length + 7 ) / 8 and 0 respectively, while
Field_bit has the correct values field_length / 8 and
field_length % 8.
Solved the problem by re-computing the values for the
metadata based on the field_length instead of using the
bytes_in_rec and bit_len variables.
To handle compatibility with old server, a table map
flag was added to indicate that the bit computation is
exact. If the flag is clear, the slave computes the
number of bytes required to store the bit field and
compares that instead, effectively allowing replication
*without conversion* from any field length that require
the same number of bytes to store.

NULL column for NULL
The optimization to read MIN() and MAX() values from an
index did not properly handle comparisons with NULL
values. Fixed by giving up the particular optimization step
if there are non-NULL safe comparisons with NULL values, as
the result is NULL anyway.
Also, Oracle copyright notice was added to all files.
cant find record
Some engines return data for the record. Despite the fact that
the null bit is set for some fields, their old value may still in
the row. This can happen when unpacking an AI from the binlog on
top of a previous record in which a field is set to NULL, which
previously contained a value. Ultimately, this may cause the
comparison of records to fail when the slave is doing an index or
range scan.
We fix this by deploying a call to reset() for each field that is
set to null while unpacking a row from the binary log.
Furthermore, we also add mixed mode test case to cover the
scenario where updating and setting a field to null through a
Query event and later searching it through a rows event will
succeed.
Finally, we also change the reset() method, from Field_bit class,
so that it takes into account bits stored among the null bits and
not only the ones stored in the record.

Bug #48370 Absolutely wrong calculations with GROUP BY and
decimal fields when using IF
Added the test cases in the above two bugs for regression
testing.
Added additional tests that demonstrate a incomplete fix.
Added a new factory method for Field_new_decimal to
create a field from an (decimal returning) Item.
In the new method made sure that all the precision and
length variables are capped in a proper way.
This is required because Item's can have larger precision
than the decimal fields and thus need to be capped when
creating a field based on an Item type.
Fixed the wrong typecast to Item_decimal.
- Moved some code from innodb_plugin to xtradb, to ensure that all tests runs
- Did changes in pbxt and maria storage engines becasue of changes in thd->query
- Reverted wrong code in sql_table.cc for how ROW_FORMAT is used.
This is a re-commit of Monty's merge to eliminate an extra commit from
MySQL-5.1.42 that was accidentally included in the merge.
This is a merge of the MySQL 5.1.41 clone-off (clone-5.1.41-build). In
case there are any extra changes done before final MySQL 5.1.41
release, these will need to be merged later before MariaDB 5.1.41
release.
The problem was that appending values to the end of an existing
ENUM or SET column was being treated as table data modification,
preventing a immediately (fast) table alteration that occurs when
only table metadata is being modified.
The cause was twofold: adding a enumeration or set members to the
end of the list of valid member values was not being considered
a "compatible" table alteration, and for SET columns, the check
was being done upon the max display length and not the underlying
(pack) length of the field.
The solution is to augment the function that checks wether two ENUM
or SET fields are compatible -- by comparing the pack lengths and
performing a limited comparison of the member values.
mysql-test/r/alter_table.result:
Add test case result for Bug#45567
mysql-test/t/alter_table.test:
Add test case for Bug#45567
sql/field.cc:
Check whether two fields can be considered 'equal' for table
alteration purposes. Fields are equal if they retain the same
pack length and if new members are added to the end of the list.
sql/field.h:
Add comment and remove method.
The problem was that creating a DECIMAL column from a decimal
value could lead to a failed assertion as decimal values can
have a higher precision than those attached to a table. The
assert could be triggered by creating a table from a decimal
with a large (> 30) scale. Also, there was a problem in
calculating the number of digits in the integral and fractional
parts if both exceeded the maximum number of digits permitted
by the new decimal type.
The solution is to ensure that truncation procedure is executed
when deducing a DECIMAL column from a decimal value of higher
precision. If the integer part is equal to or bigger than the
maximum precision for the DECIMAL type (65), the integer part
is truncated to fit and the fractional becomes zero. Otherwise,
the fractional part is truncated to fit into the space left
after the integer part is copied.
This patch borrows code and ideas from Martin Hansson's patch.

Add test case result for Bug#45261. Also, update test case to

precision.

Altering a table to update a column with types DATE or TIMESTAMP
would incorrectly be seen as a significant change that necessitates
a slow copy+rename operation instead of a fast update.
There were two problems:
The character set is magically set for TIMESTAMP to be "binary",
but that was done too deep in field use code for ALTER TABLE to
know of it. Now, put that in the constructor for Field_timestamp.
Also, when we set the character set for the new replacement/
comparison field, also raise the "binary" field flag that tells us
we should compare it exactly. That is necessary to match the old
stored definition.
Next is the problem that the default length for TIMESTAMP and DATE
fields is different than the length read from the .frm . The
compressed size is written to the file, but the human-readable,
part-delimited length is used as default length. IIRC, for
timestamp it was 19!=14, and for date it was 8!=10. Length
mismatch causes a table copy.
Also, clean up a place where a comparison function alters one of its
parameters and replace it with an assertion of the condition it
mutates.

Compiling MySQL with gcc 4.3.2 and later produces a number of
warnings, many of which are new with the recent compiler

of the warnings, predominantly "suggest using parentheses

A stored procedure involving substrings could crash the server on certain
platforms because of invalid memory reads.
During storing the new blob-field value, the cached value's address range
overlapped that of the new field value. This caused problems when the
cached value storage was reallocated to provide access for a new
characater set representation. The patch checks the address ranges, and if
they overlap, the new field value is copied to a new storage before it is
converted to the new character set.
