Problem: a flaw (derefencing a NULL pointer) in the LIKE optimization
code may lead to a server crash in some rare cases.
Fix: check the pointer before its dereferencing.
sporadically.
The cause of the sporadic time out was a leaking protection
against the global read lock, taken by the RENAME statement,
and not released in case of an error occurred during RENAME.
The leaking protection counter would lead to the value of
protect_against_global_read never dropping to 0.
Consequently FLUSH TABLES in all connections, including the
one that leaked the protection, could not proceed.
The fix is to ensure that all branchesin RENAME code properly
release GRL protection.
After the WL#2687, the binlog_cache_size and max_binlog_cache_size affect both the
stmt-cache and the trx-cache. This means that the resource used is twice the amount
expected/defined by the user.
The binlog_cache_use is incremented when the stmt-cache or the trx-cache is used
and binlog_cache_disk_use is incremented when the disk space from the stmt-cache or the
trx-cache is used. This behavior does not allow to distinguish which cache may be harming
performance due to the extra disk accesses and needs to have its in-memory cache
increased.
To fix the problem, we introduced two new options and status variables related to the
stmt-cache:
Options:
. binlog_stmt_cache_size
. max_binlog_stmt_cache_size
Status Variables:
. binlog_stmt_cache_use
. binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use
So there are
. binlog_cache_size that defines the size of the transactional cache for
updates to transactional engines for the binary log.
. binlog_stmt_cache_size that defines the size of the statement cache for
updates to non-transactional engines for the binary log.
. max_binlog_cache_size that sets the total size of the transactional
cache.
. max_binlog_stmt_cache_size that sets the total size of the statement
cache.
. binlog_cache_use that identifies the number of transactions that used the
temporary transactional binary log cache.
. binlog_cache_disk_use that identifies the number of transactions that used
the temporary transactional binary log cache but that exceeded the value of
binlog_cache_size.
. binlog_stmt_cache_use that identifies the number of statements that used the
temporary non-transactional binary log cache.
. binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use that identifies the number of statements that used
the temporary non-transactional binary log cache but that exceeded the value of
binlog_stmt_cache_size.
There were actually more problems in this area:
Slaves (if any) were unconditionally restarted, this appears unnecessary.
Sort criteria were suboptimal, included the test name.
Added logic to "reserve" a sequence of tests with same config for one thread
Got rid of sort_criteria hash, put it into the test case itself
Adds little sanity check that expected worker picks up test
Fixed some tests that may fail if starting on running server
Some of these fail only if *same* test is repeated.
Finally, special sorting of tests that do --force-restart
The binlog_cache_use is incremented twice when changes to a transactional table
are committed, i.e. TC_LOG_BINLOG::log_xid calls is called. The problem happens
because log_xid calls both binlog_flush_stmt_cache and binlog_flush_trx_cache
without checking if such caches are empty thus unintentionally increasing the
binlog_cache_use value twice.
Although not explicitly mentioned in the bug, the binlog_cache_disk_use presents
the same problem.
The binlog_cache_use and binlog_cache_disk_use are status variables that are
incremented when transactional (i.e. trx-cache) or non-transactional (i.e.
stmt-cache) changes are committed. They are used to compute the ratio between
the use of disk and memory while gathering updates for a transaction.
The problem reported is fixed by avoiding incrementing the binlog_cache_use
and binlog_cache_disk_use if a cache is empty. We also have decided to increment
both variables when a cache is truncated as the cache is used although its
content is discarded and is not written to the binary log.
In this patch, we take the opportunity to re-organize the code around the
function binlog_flush_trx_cache and binlog_flush_stmt_cache.
It was possible to issue an ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY on
an partitioned InnoDB table that failed and crashed the server.
The problem was that it succeeded to create the PK on at least
one partition, and then failed on a subsequent partition, due to
duplicate key violation. Since the partitions that already had added
the PK was not reverted all partitions was not consistent with the
table definition, which caused the crash.
The solution was to add a revert step to ha_partition::add_index()
that dropped the index for the already succeeded partitions, on failure.
Small fix for the test case. The column named "slow" was
used twice in the SELECTs. As a consequence, the column
named "ignore_server_ids" was not used.
To fix this we simply replace the second column selected
named "slow" with a column named "ignore_server_ids".
MySQL officially supports DATE values starting from 1000-01-01. This is
enforced for int values, but not for string values, thus one
could easily insert '0001-01-01' value. Int values are checked by
number_to_datetime function and Item_cache_datetime::val_str uses it
to fill MYSQL_TIME struct out of cached int value. This leads to the
scenario where Item_cache_datetime caches a non-null datetime value and when
it tries to convert it from int to string number_to_datetime function
treats the value as out-of-range and returns an error and
Item_cache_datetime::val_str returns NULL for a non-null value. Due to this
inconsistency server crashes.
Now number_to_datetime allows DATE values below 1000-01-01 if the
TIME_FUZZY_DATE flag is set. Better NULL handling for Item_cache_datetime.
Added the Item_cache_datetime::store function to reset str_value_cached flag
when an item is stored.

Followup patch. Test case relied on system variable that is
only available if replication is compiled in. Replaced with
variable available in all builds.
If a relative path is supplied to option --defaults-file or
--defaults-extra-file, the server will crash when executing
an INSTALL PLUGIN command. The reason is that the defaults
file is initially read relative the current working directory
when the server is started, but when INSTALL PLUGIN is executed,
the server has changed working directory to the data directory.
Since there is no check that the call to my_load_defaults()
inside mysql_install_plugin(), the subsequence call to
free_defaults() will crash the server.
This patch fixes the problem by:
- Prepending the current working directory to the file name when
a relative path is given to the --defaults-file or --defaults-
extra-file option the first time my_load_defaults() is called,
which is just after the server has started in main().
- Adding a check of the return value of my_load_defaults() inside
mysql_install_plugin() and aborting command (with an error) if
an error is returned.
- It also adds a check of the return value for load_defaults in
lib_sql.cc for the embedded server since that was missing.
To test that the relative files for the options --defaults-file and
--defaults-extra-file is handled properly, mysql-test-run.pl is also
changed to not add a --defaults-file option if one is provided in the
tests *.opt file.

agg_item_set_converter() (item.cc) handles conversion of
character sets by creating a new Item. fix_fields() is then
called on this newly created item. Prior to this patch, it was
not checked whether fix_fields() was successful or not. Thus,
agg_item_set_converter() would return success even when an
error occured. This patch makes it return error (TRUE) if
fix_fields() fails.
This crash could happen if SHOW CREATE VIEW indirectly failed to open a
view due to failures to open underlying tables (or functions). Several
such errors were hidden and converted to ER_VIEW_INVALID warnings to
prevent exposing details of underlying tables for which the user have
no privileges.
However, with the changes introduced by the patch for Bug#52044,
failing to open a view will cause opened tables, views and functions
to be closed. Since the errors causing these failures were converted
to warnings, SHOW CREATE VIEW would try to continue. This made it
possible to try to access memory that had been freed, causing a crash.
This patch fixes the problem by not closing opened tables, views and
functions in these cases. This allows SHOW CREATE VIEW to continue
and also prevents it from accessing freed memory.
Test case added to lock_sync.test.
Before this fix, the performance schema tables were defined in UPPERCASE.
This was incompatible with the lowercase_table_names option, and caused
issues with the install / upgrade process, when changing the lower case
table names setting *after* the install or upgrade.
With this fix, all performance schema tables are exposed with lowercase names.
As a result, the name of the performance schema table is always lowercase,
no matter how / if / when the lowercase_table_names setting if changed.
In MySQL 5.5 the new reserved words include:
SLOW as in FLUSH SLOW LOGS
GENERAL as in FLUSH GENERAL LOGS
IGNORE_SERVER_IDS as in CHANGE MASTER ... IGNORE_SERVER_IDS
MASTER_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD as in CHANGE MASTER ... MASTER_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD
These are not reserved words in standard SQL, or in Oracle 11g,
and as such, may affect existing applications.
We fix this by adding the new words to the list of
keywords that are allowed for labels in SPs.
removed and replaced by the comprehensive innodb-create-options.test.
It uses the rules listed in the comments at the top of that test.
This patch introduces these differences from previous behavior;
1) KEY_BLOCK_SIZE=0 is allowed by Innodb in both strict and non-strict mode
with no errors or warnings. It was previously used by the server to set
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE to undefined. (Bug#56628)
2) An explicit valid non-DEFAULT ROW_FORMAT always takes priority over a
valid KEY_BLOCK_SIZE. (bug#56632)
3) Automatic use of COMPRESSED row format is only done if the ROW_FORMAT
is DEFAULT or unspecified.
4) ROW_FORMAT=FIXED is prevented in strict mode.
This patch also includes various formatting changes for consistency with
InnoDB coding standards.
