The Cached_item_decimal::cmp() method wasn't checking for null pointer
returned from the val_decimal() of the item being cached.
This leads to server crash.
The Cached_item_decimal::cmp() method now check for null values.

If REPAIR TABLE ... USE_FRM is issued for table that is located in different

statement.
The problem was that during statement re-execution if the result was
empty the old result could be returned for group functions.
The solution is to implement proper cleanup() method in group
functions.
In a trigger or a function used in a statement it is possible to do
SELECT from a table being modified by the statement. However,
encapsulation of such SELECT into a view and selecting from a view
instead of direct SELECT was not possible.
This happened because tables used by views (which in their turn
were used from functions/triggers) were not excluded from checks
in unique_table() routine as it happens for the rest of tables
added to the statement table list for prelocking.
With this fix we ignore all such tables in unique_table(), thus
providing consistency: inside a trigger or a functions SELECT from
a view may be used where plain SELECT is allowed. Modification of
the same table from function or trigger is still disallowed. Also,
this patch doesn't affect the case where SELECT from the table being
modified is done outside of function of trigger, such SELECTs are
still disallowed (this limitation and visibility problem when function
select from a table being modified are subjects of bug 21326). See
also bug 22427.
OPTIMIZE TABLE with myisam_repair_threads > 1 performs a non-quick
parallel repair. This means that it does not only rebuild all
indexes, but also the data file.
Non-quick parallel repair works so that there is one thread per
index. The first of the threads rebuilds also the new data file.
The problem was that all threads shared the read io cache on the
old data file. If there were holes (deleted records) in the table,
the first thread skipped them, writing only contiguous, non-deleted
records to the new data file. Then it built the new index so that
its entries pointed to the correct record positions. But the other
threads didn't know the new record positions, but put the positions
from the old data file into the index.
The new design is so that there is a shared io cache which is filled
by the first thread (the data file writer) with the new contiguous
records and read by the other threads. Now they know the new record
positions.
Another problem was that for the parallel repair of compressed
tables a common bit_buff and rec_buff was used. I changed it so
that thread specific buffers are used for parallel repair.
A similar problem existed for checksum calculation. I made this
multi-thread safe too.
The syntax of the CALL statement, to invoke a stored procedure, has been
changed to make the use of parenthesis optional in the argument list.
With this change, "CALL p;" is equivalent to "CALL p();".
While the SQL spec does not explicitely mandate this syntax, supporting it
is needed for practical reasons, for integration with JDBC / ODBC connectors.
Also, warnings in the sql/sql_yacc.yy file, which were not reported by Bison 2.1
but are now reported by Bison 2.2, have been fixed.
The warning found were:
bison -y -p MYSQL -d --debug --verbose sql_yacc.yy
sql_yacc.yy:653.9-18: warning: symbol UNLOCK_SYM redeclared
sql_yacc.yy:656.9-17: warning: symbol UNTIL_SYM redeclared

conflicts: 249 shift/reduce
"unused value: $2" correspond to the $$=$1 assignment in the 1st {} block
in table_ref -> join_table {} {},
which does not procude a result ($$) for the rule but an intermediate $2
value for the action instead.
"unused value: $5" are similar, with $$ assignments in {} actions blocks
which are not for the final reduce.
Currently SQL_BIG_RESULT is checked only at compile time.
However, additional optimizations may take place after
this check that change the sort method from 'filesort'
to sorting via index. As a result the actual plan
executed is not the one specified by the SQL_BIG_RESULT
hint. Similarly, there is no such test when executing
EXPLAIN, resulting in incorrect output.
The patch corrects the problem by testing for
SQL_BIG_RESULT both during the explain and execution
phases.
Though this is not storage engine specific problem, I was able to
repeat this problem with BDB and NDB engines only. That was the
reason to add a test case into ndb_update.test. As a result
different bad things could happen.
BDB has removed duplicate rows which is not expected.
NDB returns an error.
For multi table update notify storage engine about UPDATE IGNORE
as it is done in single table UPDATE.

BUG#20265 (Replication of CREATE-SELECT does not work correctly):
Fixing bug by making binary log handle statement transactions.
The binary log transaction cache can now be truncated to remove
events inserted during this statement or transaction. Also, the
binary log participate in XA transaction handling, although not
as a full 2pc resource.
