USER VARIABLE = CRASH
Moved the preparation of the variables that receive the output from
SELECT INTO from execution time (JOIN:execute) to compile time
(JOIN::prepare). This ensures that if the same variable is used in the
SELECT part of SELECT INTO it will be properly marked as non-const
for this query.
Test case added.
Used proper fast iterator.
A defect in the subquery substitution code may lead to a server crash:
setting substitution's name should be followed by setting its length
(to keep them in sync).
Problem:
lack of incoming geometry data validation may
lead to a server crash when ISCLOSED() function called.
Solution:
necessary incoming data check added.
Analysis:
========================
sql_mode "NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES": When user want to use backslash as character input,
instead of escape character in a string literal then sql_mode can be set to
"NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES". With this mode enabled, backslash becomes an ordinary
character like any other.
SQL_MODE set applies to the current client session. And while creating the stored
procedure, MySQL stores the current sql_mode and always executes the stored
procedure in sql_mode stored with the Procedure, regardless of the server SQL
mode in effect when the routine is invoked.
In the scenario (for which bug is reported), the routine is created with
sql_mode=NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES. And routine is executed with the invoker sql_mode
is "" (NOT SET) by executing statement "call testp('Axel\'s')".
Since invoker sql_mode is "" (NOT_SET), the '\' in 'Axel\'s'(argument to function)
is considered as escape character and column "a" (of table "t1") values are
updated with "Axel's". The binary log generated for above update operation is as below,
set sql_mode=XXXXXX (for no_backslash_escapes)
update test.t1 set a= NAME_CONST('var',_latin1'Axel\'s' COLLATE 'latin1_swedish_ci');
While logging stored procedure statements, the local variables (params) used in
statements are replaced with the NAME_CONST(var_name, var_value) (Internal function)
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/miscellaneous-functions.html#function_name-const)
On slave, these logs are applied. NAME_CONST is parsed to get the variable and its
value. Since, stored procedure is created with sql_mode="NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES", the sql_mode
is also logged in. So that at slave this sql_mode is set before executing the statements
of routine. So at slave, sql_mode is set to "NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES" and then while
parsing NAME_CONST of string variable, '\' is considered as NON ESCAPE character
and parsing reported error for "'" (as we have only one "'" no backslash).
At slave, parsing was proper with sql_mode "NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES".
But above error reported while writing bin log, "'" (of Axel's) is escaped with
"\" character. Actually, all special characters (n, r, ', ", \, 0...) are escaped
while writing NAME_CONST for string variable(param, local variable) in bin log
irrespective of "NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES" sql_mode. So, basically, the problem is
that logging string parameter does not take into account sql_mode value.
Fix:
========================
So when sql_mode is set to "NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES", escaping characters as
(n, r, ', ", \, 0...) should be avoided. To do so, added a check to not to
escape such characters while writing NAME_CONST for string variables in bin
log.
And when sql_mode is set to NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES, quote character "'" is
represented as ''.

Problem - The default port number shown in SHOW SLAVE HOSTS is always 3306
though the slave is actually listening on a different port number.
This is a problem as the user can not be sure whether this port
value can be trusted and so client trying to read replication
topology can get confused.
Fix - 3306 ceases to be the default value of report-port. Moreover report-port
does not have a static default any longer.
Instead we initialize report-port to 0 as the new default value and change
it based on two checks :
1) If report_port is not set, the slave reports the port number its listening
on. (i.e. if report-port is not set we get the actual value of the slave's
port number).
2) If report-port is set, we show the value report-port is set to, as the slave's
port number.
CHECK_SIMPLE_EQUALITY
PROBLEM:
Crash in "check_simple_equality" when using a subquery with "IN" and
"ALL" in prepare.
ANALYSIS:
Crash can be reproduced using a simplified query like this one:
prepare s from "select 1 from g1 where 1 < all (
select @:=(1 in (select 1 from g1)) from g1)";
This bug is currently present only on 5.5.and 5.1. Its fixed as part
of work log(#1110) in 5.6. We are taking one change to fix this
in 5.5 and 5.1.
Problem seems to be present because we are trying to evaluate "is_null"
on an argument which is part of a subquery
(In Item_is_not_null_test::update_used_tables()).
But the condition to evaluate is only when we do not have a sub query
present, which means to say that "with_subselect" is not set.
With respect to the above query, we create an object of type
"Item_in_optimizer" which by definition is always associated with a
subquery. While in 5.6 we set "with_subselect" to true for
"Item_in_optimizer" object, we do not do the same in 5.5. This results in
the evaluation for "is_null" resulting in a coredump.
So, we are now setting "with_subselect" to true for "Item_in_optimizer"
in 5.1 and 5.5.
PARTITION STATISTICS
Problem was the fix for bug#11756867; It always used the first
partitions, and stopped after it checked 10 [sub]partitions.
(or until it found a partition which would contain a match).
This results in bad statistics for tables where the first 10 partitions
don't represent the majority of the data (like when the first 10
partitions only contained a few rows in total).
The solution was to take statisics from the partitions containing
the most rows instead:
Added an array of partition ids which is sorted by number of records
in descending order.
this array is used in records_in_range to cover as many records as
possible in as few calls as possible.
Also changed the limit of how many partitions to use for the statistics
from a static max of 10 partitions, into a dynamic model:
Maximum number of partitions is now log2(total number of partitions)
taken from the ordered array.
It will continue calling partitions records_in_range until it has
checked:
(total rows in matching partitions) * (maximum number of partitions)
/ (number of used partitions)
Also reverted the changes for ha_partition::scan_time() and
ha_partition::estimate_rows_upper_bound() to before
the fix of bug#11756867. Since they are not as slow as
records_in_range.
RESULT FROM PREVIOUS TRANSACTION
The current Query Cache API is not fully compatible with
the partitioning engine.
There is no good way to implement support for QC due to:
1) a static callback for ha_partition would need to have access
to all partition names and call the underlying callback for each
[sub]partition with the correct name.
2) pruning would be impossible, even if one used the ulonglong
engine_data due to if engine_data is changed, the table is
invalidated by the QC.
So the only viable solution to avoid incorrect data is to not allow
caching of queries using partitioned tables.
(There are some extra changes, due to removal of \r as line break)
Problem: Statements that write to tables with auto_increment columns
based on the selection from another table, may lead to master
and slave going out of sync, as the order in which the rows
are retrieved from the table may differ on master and slave.
Solution: We mark writing to a table with auto_increment table
based on the rows selected from another table as unsafe. This
will cause the execution of such statements to throw a warning
and forces the statement to be logged in ROW if the logging
format is mixed.
Changes:
1. All the statements that writes to a table with auto_increment
column(s) based on the rows fetched from another table, will now
be unsafe.
2. CREATE TABLE with SELECT will now be unsafe.

IS EXECUTED TWICE FROM P
This bug is a duplicate of bug 12567331, which was pushed to the
optimizer backporting tree on 2011-06-11. This is just a back-port of
the fix. Both test cases are included as they differ somewhat.
ALTER TABLE AFTER DROP PARTITION
Bug#13608188 - 64038: CRASH IN HANDLER::HA_THD ON ALTER TABLE AFTER
REPAIR NON-EXISTING PARTITION
Backport of bug#13357766 from -trunk to -5.5.
The state of some partitions was not reset on failure, leading
to invalid states of partitions in consequent statements.
Fixed by reverting back to original state for all partitions
if not all partition names was resolved.
Also adding extra security by forcing tables to be reopened
in case of error in mysql_alter_table.
(There is also removal of \r at the end of some lines.)

KEY HANDLING ON SUBSEQUENT CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS
PROBLEM:
--------
Consider a SP routine which does CREATE TABLE
with REFERENCES clause. The first call to this routine
invokes parser and the parsed items are cached, so as
to avoid parsing for the second execution of the routine.
It is obsevered that valgrind reports a warning
upon read of thd->lex->alter_info->key_list->Foreign_key object,
which seem to be pointing to a invalid memory address
during second time execution of the routine. Accessing this object
theoretically could cause a crash.
ANALYSIS:
---------
The problem stems from the fact that for some reason
elements of ref_columns list in thd->lex->alter_info->
key_list->Foreign_key object are changed to point to
objects allocated on runtime memory root.
During the first execution of routine we create
a copy of thd->lex->alter_info object.
As part of this process we create a clones of objects in
Alter_info::key_list and of Foreign_key object in particular.
Then Foreign_key object is cloned for some reason we
perform shallow copies of both Foreign_key::ref_columns
and Foreign_key::columns list. So new instance of
Foreign_key object starts to SHARE contents of ref_columns
and columns list with the original instance.
After that as part of cloning process we call
list_copy_and_replace_each_value() for elements of
ref_columns list. As result ref_columns lists in both
original and cloned Foreign_key object start to contain
pointers to Key_part_spec objects allocated on runtime
memory root because of shallow copy.
So when we start copying of thd->lex->alter_info object
during the second execution of stored routine we indeed
encounter pointer to the Key_part_spec object allocated
on runtime mem-root which was cleared during at the end
of previous execution. This is done in sp_head::execute(),
by a call to free_root(&execute_mem_root,MYF(0));
As result we get valgrind warnings about accessing
unreferenced memory.
FIX:
----
The safest solution to this problem is to
fix Foreign_key(Foreign_key, MEM_ROOT) constructor to do
a deep copy of columns lists, similar to Key(Key, MEM_ROOT)
constructor.
Bug#13011410 CRASH IN FILESORT CODE WITH GROUP BY/ROLLUP
The assert in 13580775 is visible in 5.6 only,
but shows that all versions are vulnerable.
13011410 crashes in all versions.
filesort tries to re-use the sort buffer between invocations in order to save
malloc/free overhead.
The fix for Bug 11748783 - 37359: FILESORT CAN BE MORE EFFICIENT.
added an assert that buffer properties (num_records, record_length) are
consistent between invocations. Indeed, they are not necessarily consistent.
Fix: re-allocate the sort buffer if properties change.

MEMORY LEAK.
Background:
- There are caches for stored functions and stored procedures (SP-cache);
- There is no similar cache for events;
- Triggers are cached together with TABLE objects;
- Those SP-caches are per-session (i.e. specific to each session);
- A stored routine is represented by a sp_head-instance internally;
- SP-cache basically contains sp_head-objects of stored routines, which
have been executed in a session;
- sp_head-object is added into the SP-cache before the corresponding
stored routine is executed;
- SP-cache is flushed in the end of the session.
The problem was that SP-cache might grow without any limit. Although this
was not a pure memory leak (the SP-cache is flushed when session is closed),
this is still a problem, because the user might take much memory by
executing many stored routines.
The patch fixes this problem in the least-intrusive way. A soft limit
(similar to the size of table definition cache) is introduced. To represent
such limit the new runtime configuration parameter 'stored_program_cache'
is introduced. The value of this parameter is stored in the new global
variable stored_program_cache_size that used to control the size of SP-cache
to overflow.
The parameter 'stored_program_cache' limits number of cached routines for
each thread. It has the following min/default/max values given from support:
min = 256, default = 256, max = 512 * 1024.
Also it should be noted that this parameter limits the size of
each cache (for stored procedures and for stored functions) separately.
The SP-cache size is checked after top-level statement is parsed.
If SP-cache size exceeds the limit specified by parameter
'stored_program_cache' then SP-cache is flushed and memory allocated for
cache objects is freed. Such approach allows to flush cache safely
when there are dependencies among stored routines.
This patch changes the mechanism by which the client enables a
plugin. Instead of using INSERT IGNORE to reload a plugin library,
it now uses REPLACE INTO. This allows users to load a library
multiple times replacing the existing values in the mysql.plugin
table. This allows users to replace the symbol reference to a
different dl name in the table. Thus permitting enabling of
multiple versions of the same library without first disabling
the old version.
A regression test was added to ensure this feature works.
