This deadlock happened if DROP DATABASE was blocked due to an open
HANDLER table from a different connection. While DROP DATABASE
is blocked, it holds the LOCK_mysql_create_db mutex. This results
in a deadlock if the connection with the open HANDLER table tries
to execute a CREATE/ALTER/DROP DATABASE statement as they all
try to acquire LOCK_mysql_create_db.
This patch makes this deadlock scenario very unlikely by closing and
marking for re-open all HANDLER tables for which there are pending
conflicing locks, before LOCK_mysql_create_db is acquired.
However, there is still a very slight possibility that a connection
could access one of these HANDLER tables between closing/marking for
re-open and the acquisition of LOCK_mysql_create_db.
This patch is for 5.1 only, a separate and complete fix will be
made for 5.5+.
Test case added to schema.test.
Bug#47633 - assert in ha_myisammrg::info during OPTIMIZE
The server crashed on an attempt to optimize a MERGE table with
non-existent child table.
mysql_admin_table() relied on the table to be successfully open
if a table object had been allocated.
Changed code to check return value of the open function before
calling a handler:: function on it.
returns nothing
When looking for table or database names inside INFORMATION_SCHEMA
we must convert the table and database names to lowercase (just as it's
done in the rest of the server) when lowercase_table_names is non-zero.
This will allow us to find the same tables that we would find if there
is no condition.
Fixed by converting to lower case when extracting the database and
table name conditions.
Test case added.
During creation of the table list of
processed tables hidden I_S table 'VARIABLES'
is erroneously added into the table list.
it leads to ER_UNKNOWN_TABLE error in
TABLE_LIST::add_table_to_list() function.
The fix is to skip addition of hidden I_S
tables into the table list.
The assert was triggered if a connection executing TRUNCATE
on a InnoDB table was killed during open_tables.
This bug was fixed in the scope of Bug #45643
"InnoDB does not support replication of TRUNCATE TABLE".
This patch adds test coverage to innodb_mysql_sync.test.
require O(#scans) memory
When an index merge operation was restarted, it would
re-allocate the Unique object controlling the duplicate row
ID elimination. Fixed by making the Unique object a member
of QUICK_INDEX_MERGE_SELECT and thus reusing it throughout
the lifetime of this object.
file .\filesort.cc, line 149 (part II)
Problem: the server didn't disregard sort order
for some zero length tuples.
Fix: skip sort order in such a case
(zero length NOT NULL string functions).

This is a patch for bug#48067
"A temp table with the same name as an existing table, makes drop
database fail"
When dropping the database, mysql_rm_known_files() reads the contents
of the database directory, and creates a TABLE_LIST object, for each
.frm file encountered. Temporary tables, however, are not associated
with any .frm file.
The list of tables to drop are passed to mysql_rm_table_part2().
This method prefers temporary tables over regular tables, so if
there is a temporary table with the same name as a regular, the
temporary is removed, leaving the regular table intact.
Regular tables are only deleted if there are no temporary tables
with the same name.
This fix ensures, that for all TABLE_LIST objects that are created
by mysql_rm_known_files(), 'open_type' is set to 'OT_BASE_ONLY', to
indicate that this is a regular table. In all cases in
mysql_rm_table_part2() where we prefer a temporary table to a
non-temporary table, we chek if 'open_type' equals 'OT_BASE_ONLY'.

Bug #36569: UPDATE ... WHERE ... ORDER BY... always does a
filesort even if not required
Also two bugs reported after QA review (before the commit
of bugs above to public trees, no documentation needed):
Bug #53737: Performance regressions after applying patch
for bug 36569
Bug #53742: UPDATEs have no effect after applying patch
for bug 36569
Execution of single-table UPDATE and DELETE statements did not use the
same optimizer as was used in the compilation of SELECT statements.
Instead, it had an optimizer of its own that did not take into account
that you can omit sorting by retrieving rows using an index.
Extra optimization has been added: when applicable, single-table
UPDATE/DELETE statements use an existing index instead of filesort. A
corresponding SELECT query would do the former.
Also handling of the DESC ordering expression has been added when
reverse index scan is applicable.
From now on most single table UPDATE and DELETE statements show the
same disk access patterns as the corresponding SELECT query. We verify
this by comparing the result of SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Sort%
Currently the get_index_for_order function
a) checks quick select index (if any) for compatibility with the
ORDER expression list or
b) chooses the cheapest available compatible index, but only if
the index scan is cheaper than filesort.
Second way is implemented by the new test_if_cheaper_ordering
function (extracted part the test_if_skip_sort_order()).
Incorrect handling of NULL arguments could lead to a crash on
the IN or CASE operations when either NULL arguments were
passed explicitly as arguments (IN) or implicitly generated by
the WITH ROLLUP modifier (both IN and CASE).
Item_func_case::find_item() assumed all necessary comparators
to be instantiated in fix_length_and_dec(). However, in the
presence of WITH ROLLUP modifier, arguments could be
substituted with an Item_null leading to an "unexpected"
STRING_RESULT comparator being invoked.
In addition to the problem identical to the above,
Item_func_in::val_int() could crash even with explicitly passed
NULL arguments due to an optimization in fix_length_and_dec()
leading to NULL arguments being ignored during comparators
creation.
In process of record search it is not taken into account
that inital quick->file->ref value could be inapplicable
to range interval. After proper row is found this value is
stored into the record buffer and later the record is
filtered out at condition evaluation stage.
The fix is store a refernce of found row to the handler ref field.
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.
The default storage engine is changed from MyISAM to
InnoDB, in all builds except for the embedded server.
In addition, the following system variables are
changed:
* innodb_file_per_table is enabled
* innodb_strict_mode is enabled
* innodb_file_format_name_update is changed
to 'Barracuda'
The test suite is changed so that tests that do not
explicitly include the have_innodb.inc are run with
--default-storage-engine=MyISAM. This is to ease the
transition, so that most regression tests are run
with the same engine as before.
Some tests are disabled for the embedded server
regression test, as the output of certain statements
will be different that for the regular server
(i.e SELECT @@default_storage_engine). This is to
ease transition.
sporadically".
Races in truncate_coverage.test have caused its sporadical
failures.
In the test case we have tried to kill truncate statement
being executed in the first connection which was waiting
for X metadata lock on table being locked by the second
connection. Since we have released metadata lock held by
the second connection right after issuing KILL statement
sometimes TRUNCATE TABLE managed to acquire X lock before
it has noticed that it was killed. In this case TRUNCATE
TABLE was successfully executed till its end and this fact
has caused test failure since this statement didn't return
expected error in such case.
This patch addresses the problem by not releasing metadata
locks in the second connections prematurely.

field with invalid default value
Bug #35935 CREATE TABLE under LOCK TABLES ignores FLUSH

These bugs were originally fixed in the 6.1-fk tree and the fixes
were backported as part of the fix for Bug #42546 "Backup: RESTORE
fails, thinking it finds an existing table". This patch backports
test coverage missing in the original backport. The patch contains
no code changes.
