Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
- Create "--ps-protocol" and no "--<whatever>-protocol" variants of the former tests
t/grant_cache.test and t/query_cache_sql_prepare.test.
- Some additional subtest and fixes of bugs
- Minor improvements
This patch removes a false memory leak error report from the test suite.
There is a test case that puposely provokes a SAFEMALLOC leak report,
even though there is no actual leak.
As MySQL character set tests can print results in many character sets
(latin1, utf8-8, sjis, cp932 and others) - its output can be incompatible
with the current locale settings, which makes PERL confuse.
Fix: reset LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE to "C", which is compatible with
any character set.
Bug #23667 "CREATE TABLE LIKE is not isolated from alteration
by other connections"
Bug #18950 "CREATE TABLE LIKE does not obtain LOCK_open"
As well as:
Bug #25578 "CREATE TABLE LIKE does not require any privileges
on source table".
The first and the second bugs resulted in various errors and wrong
binary log order when one tried to execute concurrently CREATE TABLE LIKE
statement and DDL statements on source table or DML/DDL statements on its
target table.
The problem was caused by incomplete protection/table-locking against
concurrent statements implemented in mysql_create_like_table() routine.
We solve it by simply implementing such protection in proper way.
Most of actual work for 5.1 was already done by fix for bug 20662 and
preliminary patch changing locking in ALTER TABLE.
The third bug allowed user who didn't have any privileges on table create
its copy and therefore circumvent privilege check for SHOW CREATE TABLE.
This patch solves this problem by adding privilege check, which was missing.
Finally it also removes some duplicated code from mysql_create_like_table()
and thus fixes bug #26869 "TABLE_LIST::table_name_length inconsistent with
TABLE_LIST::table_name".

Note that, altough tests covering concurrency-related aspects of CREATE TABLE
LIKE behaviour will only be introduced in 5.1, they were run manually for
this patch as well.
Problem: Memory overrun happened in attempts to generate
error messages (e.g. in case of incorrect XPath syntax).
Reason: set_if_bigger() was used instead of set_if_smaller().
Change: replacing wrong set_if_bigger() to set_if_smaller(),
and making minor additional code clean-ups.
This patch corrects a problem encountered when reading the binlog from a remote
host. The application was crashing because the buffer variable (temp_buf) in
log_event was not pointing to the incoming data. For a normal file read, this
buffer is allocated by a previous call of read_log_event. However, when reading
from a remote host, the first call to read_log_event is not executed therefore
no buffer is allocated. Furthermore, there is no need to allocate a new buffer
because the incoming stream is what needs to be read.
This patch adds the call to initialize the temp_buf variable if reading from a
remote host. It also adds a check at destroy time to ensure the temp_buf is not
freed if reading from a remote host.
- Added suppressions for dlopen to make plugin test pass.
- Do not pass empty string to mysqld, since my_getopt is
not capable to handle it.
- Re-enabled trailing UNINSTALL PLUGIN statement of plugin.test.
The memory leak described in the bug report happens in libdl, not
in mysqld. On some valgrind installations this error is suppressed
by default, no idea why it isn't suppressed on pb-valgrind.
<observation>
If library remains open after thread has finished, and is closed by
another thread, we get memory leak. But in case library is opened and
closed by the same thread no leak occurs.
</observation>
- The SQL commands used by mysql_upgrade are written to be run
with sql_mode set to '' - thus the scripts should change sql_mode
for the session to make sure the SQL is legal.
and invalidation in the most general case (non-temporary table and
not simple RENAME or ENABLE/DISABLE KEYS or partitioning command).
See comment for sql/sql_table.cc for more information.
These changes are prerequisite for 5.1 version of fix for bug #23667
