while space allocation
Under some circumstances DISTINCT clause can be converted to grouping.
In such cases grouping is performed by all items in the select list.
If an ORDER clause is present then items from it is prepended to group list.
But the case with ORDER wasn't taken into account when allocating the
array for sum functions. This leads to memory corruption and crash.
The JOIN::alloc_func_list() function now allocates additional space if there
is an ORDER by clause is specified and DISTINCT -> GROUP BY optimization is
possible.
create_tmp_table()".
The fix for bug 21787 "COUNT(*) + ORDER BY + LIMIT returns wrong
result" introduced valgrind warnings which occured during execution
of information_schema.test and sp-prelocking.test in version 5.0.
There were no user visible effects.
The latter fix made create_tmp_table() dependant on
THD::lex::current_select value. Valgrind warnings occured when this
function was executed and THD::lex::current_select member pointed
to uninitialized SELECT_LEX instance.
This fix tries to remove this dependancy by moving some logic
outside of create_tmp_table() function.

equal constant under any circumstances.
In fact this substitution can be allowed if the field is
not of a type string or if the field reference serves as
an argument of a comparison predicate.
if join is used
For procedures with selects that use complicated joins with ON expression
re-execution could erroneously ignore this ON expression, giving
incorrect result.
The problem was that optimized ON expression wasn't saved for
re-execution. The solution is to properly save it.
Select_type in the EXPLAIN output for the query SELECT * FROM t1 was
'SIMPLE', while for the query SELECT * FROM v1, where the view v1
was defined as SELECT * FROM t1, the EXPLAIN output contained 'PRIMARY'
for the select_type column.
The problem was due to a prior fix for BUG 9676, which limited
the rows stored in a temporary table to the LIMIT clause. This
optimization is not applicable to non-group queries with aggregate
functions. The fix disables the optimization in this case.
account by the optimizer.
Now all row equalities are converted into conjunctions of
equalities between row elements. They are taken into account
by the optimizer together with the original regular equality
predicates.
const tables. This resulted in choosing extremely inefficient
execution plans in same cases when distribution of data in
joined were skewed (see the customer test case for the bug).
GROUP BY/DISTINCT pruning optimization must be done before ORDER BY
optimization because ORDER BY may be removed when GROUP BY/DISTINCT
sorts as a side effect, e.g. in
SELECT DISTINCT <non-key-col>,<pk> FROM t1
ORDER BY <non-key-col> DISTINCT
must be removed before ORDER BY as if done the other way around
it will remove both.
used.
Sorting by RAND() uses a temporary table in order to get a correct results.
User defined variable was set during filling the temporary table and later
on it is substituted for its value from the temporary table. Due to this
it contains the last value stored in the temporary table.
Now if the result_field is set for the Item_func_set_user_var object it
updates variable from the result_field value when being sent to a client.
The Item_func_set_user_var::check() now accepts a use_result_field
parameter. Depending on its value the result_field or the args[0] is used
to get current value.
A date can be represented as an int (like 20060101) and as a string (like
"2006.01.01"). When a DATE/TIME field is compared in one SELECT against both
representations the constant propagation mechanism leads to comparison
of DATE as a string and DATE as an int. In this example it compares 2006 and
20060101 integers. Obviously it fails comparison although they represents the
same date.
Now the Item_bool_func2::fix_length_and_dec() function sets the comparison
context for items being compared. I.e. if items compared as strings the
comparison context is STRING.
The constant propagation mechanism now doesn't mix items used in different
comparison contexts. The context check is done in the
Item_field::equal_fields_propagator() and in the change_cond_ref_to_const()
functions.
Also the better fix for bug 21159 is introduced.
SELECT right instead of INSERT right was required for an insert into to a view.
This wrong behaviour appeared after the fix for bug #20989. Its intention was
to ask only SELECT right for all tables except the very first for a complex
INSERT query. But that patch has done it in a wrong way and lead to asking
a wrong access right for an insert into a view.
The setup_tables_and_check_access() function now accepts two want_access
parameters. One will be used for the first table and the second for other
tables.
