The crash happened with an indexed virtual column whose
value is evaluated using a function that has a different meaning
in sql_mode='' vs sql_mode=ORACLE:
- DECODE()
- LTRIM()
- RTRIM()
- LPAD()
- RPAD()
- REPLACE()
- SUBSTR()
For example:
CREATE TABLE t1 (
b VARCHAR(1),
g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL,
KEY g(g)
);
So far we had replacement XXX_ORACLE() functions for all mentioned function,
e.g. SUBSTR_ORACLE() for SUBSTR(). So it was possible to correctly re-parse
SUBSTR_ORACLE() even in sql_mode=''.
But it was not possible to re-parse the MariaDB version of SUBSTR()
after switching to sql_mode=ORACLE. It was erroneously mis-interpreted
as SUBSTR_ORACLE().
As a result, this combination worked fine:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t1 ... g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL, ...;
INSERT ...
FLUSH TABLES;
SET sql_mode='';
INSERT ...
But the other way around it crashed:
SET sql_mode='';
CREATE TABLE t1 ... g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL, ...;
INSERT ...
FLUSH TABLES;
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
INSERT ...
At CREATE time, SUBSTR was instantiated as Item_func_substr and printed
in the FRM file as substr(). At re-open time with sql_mode=ORACLE, "substr()"
was erroneously instantiated as Item_func_substr_oracle.
Fix:
The fix proposes a symmetric solution. It provides a way to re-parse reliably
all sql_mode dependent functions to their original CREATE TABLE time meaning,
no matter what the open-time sql_mode is.
We take advantage of the same idea we previously used to resolve sql_mode
dependent data types.
Now all sql_mode dependent functions are printed by SHOW using a schema
qualifier when the current sql_mode differs from the function sql_mode:
SET sql_mode='';
CREATE TABLE t1 ... SUBSTR(a,b,c) ..;
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1; -> mariadb_schema.substr(a,b,c)
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 ... SUBSTR(a,b,c) ..;
SET sql_mode='';
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1; -> oracle_schema.substr(a,b,c)
Old replacement names like substr_oracle() are still understood for
backward compatibility and used in FRM files (for downgrade compatibility),
but they are not printed by SHOW any more.
Changing the code handling sql_mode-dependent function DECODE():
- removing parser tokens DECODE_MARIADB_SYM and DECODE_ORACLE_SYM
- removing the DECODE() related code from sql_yacc.yy/sql_yacc_ora.yy
- adding handling of DECODE() with help of a new Create_func_func_decode
- Added missing information about database of corresponding table for various types of commands
- Update some typos

UNION ALL queries are a subject of optimization introduced in MDEV-334
when creation of a temporary table is skipped.
While there is a check for this optimization in Explain_union::print_explain()
there was no such in Explain_union::print_explain_json(). This resulted in
printing irrelevant data like:
"union_result": {
"table_name": "<union2,3>",
"access_type": "ALL",
"r_loops": 0,
"r_rows": null
in case when creation of the temporary table was actually optimized out.
This commits adds a check whether the temporary table was actually created
during the UNION ALL processing and eliminates printing of the irrelevant data.
This bug caused crashes of the server when processing queries with table
value constructors (TVC) that contained subqueries and were used itself as
subselects. For such TVCs the following transformation is applied at the
prepare stage:
VALUES (v1), ... (vn) => SELECT * FROM (VALUES (v1), ... (vn)) tvc_x.
This transformation allows to reduce the problem of evaluation of TVCs used
as subselects to the problem of evaluation of regular subselects.
The transformation is implemented in the wrap_tvc(). The code the function
to mimic the behaviour of the parser when processing the result of the
transformation. However this imitation was not free of some flaws. First
the function called the method exclude() that completely destroyed the
select tree structures below the transformed TVC. Second the function
used the procedure mysql_new_select to create st_select_lex nodes for
both wrapping select of the transformation and TVC. This also led to
constructing of invalid select tree structures.
The patch actually re-engineers the code of wrap_tvc().

- Adding optional qualifiers to data types:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a schema.DATE);
Qualifiers now work only for three pre-defined schemas:
mariadb_schema
oracle_schema
maxdb_schema
These schemas are virtual (hard-coded) for now, but may turn into real
databases on disk in the future.
- mariadb_schema.TYPE now always resolves to a true MariaDB data
type TYPE without sql_mode specific translations.
- oracle_schema.DATE translates to MariaDB DATETIME.
- maxdb_schema.TIMESTAMP translates to MariaDB DATETIME.
- Fixing SHOW CREATE TABLE to use a qualifier for a data type TYPE
if the current sql_mode translates TYPE to something else.
The above changes fix the reported problem, so this script:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 AS SELECT mariadb_date_column FROM t1;
is now replicated as:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 (mariadb_date_column mariadb_schema.DATE);
and the slave can unambiguously treat DATE as the true MariaDB DATE
without ORACLE specific translation to DATETIME.
Similar,
SET sql_mode=MAXDB;
CREATE TABLE t2 AS SELECT mariadb_timestamp_column FROM t1;
is now replicated as:
SET sql_mode=MAXDB;
CREATE TABLE t2 (mariadb_timestamp_column mariadb_schema.TIMESTAMP);
so the slave treats TIMESTAMP as the true MariaDB TIMESTAMP
without MAXDB specific translation to DATETIME.
Problem:
========
During point in time recovery of binary log syntax error is reported for
BEGIN statement and recovery fails.
Analysis:
=========
In MariaDB 10.3 and later, setting the sql_mode system variable to Oracle
allows the server to understand a subset of Oracle's PL/SQL language. When
sql_mode=ORACLE is set, it switches the parser from the MariaDB parser to
Oracle compatible parser. With this change 'BEGIN' is not considered as
'START TRANSACTION'. Hence the syntax error is reported.
Fix:
===
At preset 'BEGIN' query is generated from 'Gtid_log_event::print'. The current
session specific 'sql_mode' information is not present as part of
'Gtid_log_event'. If it was available then, mysqlbinlog tool can make use of
'sql_mode == ORACLE' and can output "START TRANSACTION" in this particular
mode and for other sql_modes it will write "BEGIN" as part of output. Since it
is not available 'mysqlbinlog' tool will output all 'BEGIN' statements as
'START TRANSACTION' irrespective of 'sql_mode'.
In main.index_merge_myisam we remove the test that was added in
commit a2d24def8c because
it duplicates the test case that was added in
commit 5af12e4635.
When backpatching a forward GOTO label, the old code erroneously
used CURSOR/HANDLER difference between context frames "c" and "a" to tune
a cpop/hpop command. So the cpop/hpop command later tried to pop
all cursors/handlers declared between "a" and "c", but those between
"b" and "c" were not cpushed/hpoped yet during the execution of "GOTO x".
Fixing the code to use the difference between frames "b" and "a" only.
BEGIN -- a
...
GOTO x; -- b
...
<<x>> -- c

END -- d

- for each join prefix, add #prefix_rows / TIME_FOR_COMPARE to the cost,
like best_extension_by_limited_search does

- Also take into account join condition selectivity
optimize_wo_join_buffering() (used by LooseScan and FirstMatch)

The COMPRESSED clause is now a part of the data type and goes immediately
after the data type and length, but before the CHARACTER SET clause,
and before column attributes such as DEFAULT, COLLATE, ON UPDATE,
SYSTEM VERSIONING, engine specific column attributes.
In the old reduction, the COMPRESSED clause was a column attribute.
New syntax:
<varchar or text data type> <length> <compression> <character set> <column attributes>
<varbinary or blob data type> <length> <compression> <column attributes>
New syntax examples:
VARCHAR(1000) COMPRESSED CHARACTER SET latin1 DEFAULT ''
BLOB COMPRESSED DEFAULT ''
Deprecate syntax examples:
VARCHAR(1000) CHARACTER SET latin1 COMPRESSED DEFAULT ''
TEXT CHARACTER SET latin1 DEFAULT '' COMPRESSED
VARBINARY(1000) DEFAULT '' COMPRESSED
As a side effect:
- COMPRESSED is not valid as an SP label name in SQL/PSM routines any more
(but it's still valid as an SP label name in sql_mode=ORACLE)
- COMPRESSED is now allowed in combination with GENERATED ALWAYS AS:
TEXT COMPRESSED GENERATED ALWAYS AS REPEAT('a',1000)
