Problem:
A CREATE TABLE with an invalid table name is detected
at SQL layer. So the table name is reset to an empty
string. But the storage engine is called with this
empty table name. The table name is specified as
"database/table". So, in the given scenario we get
only "database/".
Solution:
Within InnoDB, detect this error and report it to
higher layer.

PROBLEMS
Description:- Server variable "--lower_case_tables_names"
when set to "0" on windows platform which does not support
case sensitive file operations leads to problems. A warning
message is printed in the error log while starting the
server with "--lower_case_tables_names=0". Also according to
the documentation, seting "lower_case_tables_names" to "0"
on a case-insensitive filesystem might lead to index
corruption.
Analysis:- The problem reported in the bug is:-
Creating an INNODB table 'a' and executing a query, "INSERT
INTO a SELECT a FROM A;" on a server started with
"--lower_case_tables_names=0" and running on a
case-insensitive filesystem leads innodb to flat spin.
Optimizer thinks that "a" and "A" are two different tables
as the variable "lower_case_table_names" is set to "0". As a
result, optimizer comes up with a plan which does not need a
temporary table. If the same table is used in select and
insert, a temporary table is needed. This incorrect
optimizer plan leads to infinite insertions.
Fix:- If the server is started with
"--lower_case_tables_names" set to 0 on a case-insensitive
filesystem, an error, "The server option
'lower_case_table_names'is configured to use case sensitive
table names but the data directory is on a case-insensitive
file system which is an unsupported combination. Please
consider either using a case sensitive file system for your
data directory or switching to a case-insensitive table name
mode.", is printed in the server error log and the server
exits.
Problem:
If we add a referential integrity constraint with a duplicate
name, an error occurs. The foreign key object would not have
been added to the dictionary cache. In the error path, there
is an attempt to remove this foreign key object. Since this
object is not there, the search returns a NULL result.
De-referencing the null object results in this crash.
Solution:
If the search to the foreign key object failed, then don't
attempt to access it.

approved in IM by Marko and Vasil.
FROM A FUNCTION
Scenario:
In a stored procedure, CREATE TABLE statement is not allowed. But an
exception is provided for CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE. We can create a temporary
table in a stored procedure.
Let there be two stored functions f1 and f2 and two stored procedures p1 and
p2. Their properties are as follows:
. stored function f1() calls stored procedure p1().
. stored function f2() calls stored procedure p2().
. stored procedure p1() creates temporary table t1.
. stored procedure p2() does DML on t1.
Consider the following situation:
1. Autocommit mode is on.
2. select f1()
3. select f2()
Step 2: In this step, t1 would be created via p1(). A table level transaction
lock would have been taken. The ::external_lock() would not have been called
on this table. At the end of step 2, because of autocommit mode on, this table
level lock will be released.
Step 3: When we execute DML on table t1 via p2() we have two problems:
Problem 1:
The function ha_innobase::external_lock() would have been called but since
it is a select query no table level locks would have been taken. Hence the
following assert will fail:
ut_ad(lock_table_has(thr_get_trx(thr), index->table, LOCK_IX));
Solution:
The solution would be to identify this situation and take a table level lock
and use the proper lock type prebuilt->select_lock_type = LOCK_X for DML
operations.
Problem 2:
Another problem is that in step 3, ha_innobase::open() is never called on
the table t1.
Solution:
The solution would be to identify this situation and call re-init the handler
of table t1.

Problem:
Creation of a table fails when innodb_strict_mode is enabled, but the same
table is created without any warning when innodb_strict_mode is enabled.
Solution:
If creation of a table fails with an error when innodb_strict_mode is
enabled, it must issue a warning when innodb_strict_mode is disabled.

Problem:
We maintain two rb trees in each dict_table_t. The foreign_rbt must be in
sync with foreign_list. The referenced_rbt must be in sync with
referenced_list. There is one function which checks this consistency and it
failed, resulting in an assert failure.
The root cause of the problem was identified that the search order was
lost in the referenced_rbt. This is because while renaming the table,
we didn't not refresh this referenced_rbt.
Solution:
When a foreign key is renamed, we must delete and re-insert into both
foreign_rbt and referenced_rbt.

SLOW/CRASHES SEMAPHORE
Problem:
There are 2 lakh tables - fk_000001, fk_000002 ... fk_200000. All of them
are related to the same parent_table through a foreign key constraint.
When the parent_table is loaded into the dictionary cache, all the child table
will also be loaded. This is taking lot of time. Since this operation happens
when the dictionary latch is taken, the scenario leads to "long semaphore wait"
situation and the server gets killed.
Analysis:
A simple performance analysis showed that the slowness is because of the
dict_foreign_find() function. It does a linear search on two linked list
table->foreign_list and table->referenced_list, looking for a particular
foreign key object based on foreign->id as the key. This is called two
times for each foreign key object.
Solution:
Introduce a rb tree in table->foreign_rbt and table->referenced_rbt, which
are some sort of index on table->foreign_list and table->referenced_list
respectively, using foreign->id as the key. These rbt structures will be
solely used by dict_foreign_find().

FAILING ASSERTION: FLEN == LEN
Problem:
Broken invariant triggered when building a unique index on a
binary column and the input data contains duplicate keys. This was broken
in debug builds only.
Fix:
Fixed length of the binary datatype can be greater than length of
the shorter prefix on which index is being created.
Problem:
In the clustered index, when an update operation is done the overall
scenario (after rb#4479) is as follows:
1. Delete mark the old record that is to be updated.
2. The old record disowns the blobs.
3. Insert the new record into clustered index.
4. For non-updated blobs, new record must own it. Verified by assert.
5. For non-updated blobs, in new record marked as inherited.
Scenario involving DB_LOCK_WAIT:
If step 3 times out, then we will skip 1 and 2 and will continue from
step 3. This skipping is achieved by the UPD_NODE_INSERT_BLOB state.
In this case, step 4 is not correct. Because of step 1, the new
record need not own the blobs. Hence the assert failure.
Solution:
The assert in step 4 is removed. Instead code is added to ensure that
the record owns the blob.
Note:
This is a regression caused by rb#4479.

AUTO_INCREMENT_INCREMENT
Problem:
=======
When auto_increment_increment system variable decreases,
immediate next value of auto increment column is not affected.
Solution:
========
Get the previous inserted value of auto increment column by
subtracting the previous auto_increment_increment from next
auto increment value. After that calculate the current autoinc value
using newly changed auto_increment_increment variable.
Approved by Sunny [rb#4394]
Problem:
The function row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary() is used to decide whether to
use row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert() or row_upd_clust_rec(). The function
row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary() does not make use of charset information.
Based on binary comparison it decides that r1 and r2 differ in their ordering
fields.
In the function row_upd_clust_rec_by_insert(), an update is done by delete +
insert. These operations internally make use of cmp_dtuple_rec_with_match()
to compare records r1 and r2. This comparison takes place with the use of
charset information.
This means that it is possible for the deleted record to be reused in the
subsequent insert. In the given scenario, the characters 'a' and 'A' are
considered equal in the my_charset_latin1. When this happens, the ownership
information of externally stored blobs are not correctly handled.
Solution:
When an update is done by delete followed by insert, disown the relevant
externally stored fields during the delete marking itself (within the same
mtr). If the insert succeeds, then nothing with respect to blob ownership
needs to be done. If the insert fails, then the disown done earlier will be
removed when the operation is rolled back.

CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT OPTION
A transaction is started with a consistent snapshot. After
the transaction is started new indexes are added to the
table. Now when we issue an update statement, the optimizer
chooses an index. When the index scan is being initialized
via ha_innobase::change_active_index(), InnoDB reports
the error code HA_ERR_TABLE_DEF_CHANGED, with message
stating that "insufficient history for index".
This error message is propagated up to the SQL layer. But
the my_error() api is never called. The statement level
diagnostics area is not updated with the correct error
status (it remains in Diagnostics_area::DA_EMPTY).
Hence the following check in the Protocol::end_statement()
fails.
516 case Diagnostics_area::DA_EMPTY:
517 default:
518 DBUG_ASSERT(0);
519 error= send_ok(thd->server_status, 0, 0, 0, NULL);

BY A CONCURRENT TRANSACTIO
The member function QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::init_ror_merged_scan() performs
a table handler clone. Innodb does not provide a clone operation.
The ha_innobase::clone() is not there. The handler::clone() does not
take care of the ha_innobase->prebuilt->select_lock_type. Because of
this what happens is that for one index we do a locking read, and
for the other index we were doing a non-locking (consistent) read.
The patch introduces ha_innobase::clone() member function.
It is implemented similar to ha_myisam::clone(). It calls the
base class handler::clone() and then does any additional operation
required. I am setting the ha_innobase->prebuilt->select_lock_type
correctly.
