erroneous check
Problem: Actually there were two problems in the server code. The check
for SQLCOM_FLUSH in SF/Triggers were not according to the existing
architecture which uses sp_get_flags_for_command() from sp_head.cc .
This function was also missing a check for SQLCOM_FLUSH which has a
problem combined with prelocking. This changeset fixes both of these
deficiencies as well as the erroneous check in
sp_head::is_not_allowed_in_function() which was a copy&paste error.
User name (host name) has limit on length. The server code relies on these
limits when storing the names. The problem was that sometimes these limits
were not checked properly, so that could lead to buffer overflow.
The fix is to check length of user/host name in parser and if string is too
long, throw an error.
handle them.
Problem:
CREATE|ALTER EVENT, HANDLER READ, KILL, Partitioning uses `expr` from the
parser. This rule comes with all the rings and bells including subqueries.
However, these commands are not subquery safe. For this reason there are two
fuse checks in the parser. They were checking by command id. CREATE EVENT
should forbid subquery is the fix for
bug#16394 Events: Crash if schedule contains SELECT
The fix has been incorporated as part of the patch for WL#3337 (Event scheduler
new architecture).
Solution:
A new flag was added to LEX command_forbids_subselect. The fuse checks were
changed. The commands are responsible to set the value to true whenever
they can't handle subselects.
- if there are two character set definitions in the column declaration,
we replace the first one with the second one as we store both in the LEX->charset
slot. Add a separate slot to the LEX structure to store underscore charset.
- convert default values to the column charset of STRING, VARSTRING fields
if necessary as well.
create function func() returns char(10) binary ...
is no more possible. This will be reenabled when
bug 2676 "DECLARE can't have COLLATE clause in stored procedure"
is fixed.
Fix after 2nd review
The problem was that the grammar allows to create a function with an optional
definer clause, and define it as a UDF with the SONAME keyword.
Such combination should be reported as an error.
The solution is to not change the grammar itself, and to introduce a
specific check in the yacc actions in 'create_function_tail' for UDF,
that now reports ER_WRONG_USAGE when using both DEFINER and SONAME.
When executing ALTER TABLE all the attributes of the view were overwritten.
This is contrary to the user's expectations.
So some of the view attributes are preserved now : namely security and
algorithm. This means that if they are not specified in ALTER VIEW
their values are preserved from CREATE VIEW instead of being defaulted.
Fix for BUG#16676: Database CHARSET not used for stored procedures
The problem in BUG#16211 is that CHARSET-clause of the return type for
stored functions is just ignored.
The problem in BUG#16676 is that if character set is not explicitly
specified for sp-variable, the server character set is used instead
of the database one.
The fix has two parts:
- always store CHARSET-clause of the return type along with the
type definition in mysql.proc.returns column. "Always" means that
CHARSET-clause is appended even if it has not been explicitly
specified in CREATE FUNCTION statement (this affects BUG#16211 only).
Storing CHARSET-clause if it is not specified is essential to avoid
changing character set if the database character set is altered in
the future.
NOTE: this change is not backward compatible with the previous releases.
- use database default character set if CHARSET-clause is not explicitly
specified (this affects both BUG#16211 and BUG#16676).
NOTE: this also breaks backward compatibility.
When an alias is set to a column leading spaces are removed from the alias.
But when this is done on aliases set by user this can lead to confusion.
Now Item::set_name() method issues the warning if leading spaces were removed
from an alias set by user.
New warning message is added.
More small fixes to the API : use LEX_STRING instead of LEX_STRING* and if error
then return bool(true) instead of error code.
Merged functions. Reduced usage of sp_name.
Fixed a lot of function documentation errors.
Added function documentation wherever needed.
Removed some unused defines and error codes.
Next to come is batch rename of Event_scheduler_ng to Event_scheduler.
