ALTER EVENT in stored procedure body led to a crash during the
procedure call. Affected was only ALTER EVENT which changed the
interval of the event. No problems with AT, STARTS, ENDS and so on.
Bug #18559 "log tables cannot change engine, and
gets deadlocked when dropping w/ log on":
1) Add more generic error messages
2) Add new handlerton flag for engines, which support
log tables
3) Remove (log-tables related) mutex lock in myisam to
improve performance
The cause of the bug was an incomplete fix for bug 18080.
The problem was that setup_tables() unconditionally reset the
name resolution context to its 'tables' argument, which pointed
to the first table of an SQL statement.
The bug fix limits resetting of the name resolution context in
setup_tables() only in the cases when the context was not set
by earlier parser/optimizer phases.
- When an ALTER TABLE RENAME is performed on windows, the files are closed and their cached file
descriptors are marked invalid. Performing INSERT, UPDATE or SELECT on the associated merge
table causes a server crash on windows. This patch adds a test for bad file descriptors when a
table attempts a lock. If a bad descriptor is found an error is thrown. An additional FLUSH TABLES
will be necessary to further operate on the associated merge table.
The problem was that if after FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK the user
issued DROP/ALTER PROCEDURE/FUNCTION the operation would fail (as
expected), but after UNLOCK TABLE any attempt to execute the same
operation would lead to the error 1305 "PROCEDURE/FUNCTION does not
exist", and an attempt to execute any stored function will also fail.
This happened because under FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK we couldn't open
and lock mysql.proc table for update, and this fact was erroneously
remembered by setting mysql_proc_table_exists to false, so subsequent
statements believed that mysql.proc doesn't exist, and thus that there
are no functions and procedures in the database.
As a solution, we remove mysql_proc_table_exists flag completely. The
reason is that this optimization didn't work most of the time anyway.
Even if open of mysql.proc failed for some reason when we were trying to
call a function or a procedure, we were setting mysql_proc_table_exists
back to true to force table reopen for the sake of producing the same
error message (the open can fail for number of reasons). The solution
could have been to remember the reason why open failed, but that's a lot
of code for optimization of a rare case. Hence we simply remove this
optimization.
This bug report was two problems:
1) LAST_INSERT_ID() returns a value which does not exist in the table
2) the reporter would want it to return the autoinc id of the updated
row.
1) is a real bug, 2) is a feature request.
In July I implemented 2) in 5.1 (which automatically fixes 1).
This has not yet been documented or released, so is changeable.
Precisely, recently Paul and a user found an easy workaround to give
2), which works in 4.1-5.0-5.1. So I can revert my code for 2),
because it's not needed, that's what I do here;
we forget about 2) (we will document the workaround).
But when I revert my code for 2), 1) comes back. We solve 1) by saying
that if INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE updates a row, it's like a
regular UPDATE: LAST_INSERT_ID() should not be affected (instead of
returning a non-existent value).
So note: no behaviour change compared to the last released 5.1; just
a bugfix for 1).

21913: DATE_FORMAT() Crashes mysql server if I use it through mysql-connector-j driver.
Variable character_set_results can legally be NULL (for "no conversion.")
This could result in a NULL deref that crashed the server. Fixed.
(Although ran some additional precursory tests to see whether I could break
anything else, but no breakage so far.)

Identifiers with embedded escape characters were not handled correctly by
some SHOW statements due to some old code that was doing some extra unescaping.
This is a post-review patch.
Fixes the typelib implementation, available only in 5.1.11.
--event-scheduler cmdline : DISABLED | ON | OFF | 0 | 1
DISABLED - makes the scheduler unavailable during the server run
(ON|1)- When the server is started the scheduler will be started. It can
be stopped and restarted by setting appropriate values to
GLOBAL event_scheduler
(OFF|0)- When the server is started, the scheduler won't be started. It
can be started and again stopped by setting appropriate values to
GLOBAL event_scheduler. _DEFAULT_ value
The GLOBAL variable event_scheduler can have the following values:
OFF | ON | 0 | 1
DISABLED is not possible and every attempt will end with an error that
it's not a valid value for the variable.
OFF | 0 - This is the pre-5.1.11 behavior - The scheduler stops, if not
already stopped, and can be started again by setting
the value of the variable to ON|1.
ON | 1 - This is the pre-5.1.11 behavior - The scheduler starts, if not
already started, and can be stopped again by setting the value
of the variable to OFF|0.
