EXPLAIN EXTENDED for an UPDATE/DELETE/INSERT/REPLACE statement did not
produce the warning containing the text representation of the query
obtained after the optimization phase. Such warning was produced for
SELECT statements, but not for DML statements.
The patch fixes this defect of EXPLAIN EXTENDED for DML statements.
The idea is to put Item_direct_ref_to_item as a transparent and
permanent wrapper before a string which require conversion.
So that Item_direct_ref_to_item would be the only place where
the pointer to the string item is stored, this pointer can be changed
and restored during PS execution as needed. And if any permanent
(subquery) optimization would need a pointer to the item,
it'll use a pointer to the Item_direct_ref_to_item - which is
a permanent item and won't go away.
For some queries that involve tables with different but convertible
character sets for columns taking part in the query, repeatable
execution of such queries in PS mode or as part of a stored routine
would result in server abnormal termination.
For example,
CREATE TABLE t1 (a2 varchar(10));
CREATE TABLE t2 (u1 varchar(10) CHARACTER SET utf8);
CREATE TABLE t3 (u2 varchar(10) CHARACTER SET utf8);
PREPARE stmt FROM
"SELECT t1.* FROM (t1 JOIN t2 ON (t2.u1 = t1.a2))
WHERE (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM t3 WHERE t3.u2 = t1.a2))";
EXECUTE stmt;
EXECUTE stmt; <== Running this prepared statement the second time
results in server crash.
The reason of server crash is that an instance of the class
Item_func_conv_charset, that created for conversion of a column
from one character set to another, is allocated on execution
memory root but pointer to this instance is stored in an item
placed on prepared statement memory root. Below is calls trace to
the place where an instance of the class Item_func_conv_charset
is created.
setup_conds
Item_func::fix_fields
Item_bool_rowready_func2::fix_length_and_dec
Item_func::setup_args_and_comparator
Item_func_or_sum::agg_arg_charsets_for_comparison
Item_func_or_sum::agg_arg_charsets
Item_func_or_sum::agg_item_set_converter
Item::safe_charset_converter
And the following trace shows the place where a pointer to
the instance of the class Item_func_conv_charset is passed
to the class Item_func_eq, that is created on a memory root of
the prepared statement.
Prepared_statement::execute
mysql_execute_command
execute_sqlcom_select
handle_select
mysql_select
JOIN::optimize
JOIN::optimize_inner
convert_join_subqueries_to_semijoins
convert_subq_to_sj
To fix the issue, switch to the Prepared Statement memory root
before calling the method Item_func::setup_args_and_comparator
in order to place any created Items on permanent memory root.
It may seem that such approach would result in a memory
leakage in case the parameter marker '?' is used in the query
as in the following example
PREPARE stmt FROM
"SELECT t1.* FROM (t1 JOIN t2 ON (t2.u1 = t1.a2))
WHERE (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM t3 WHERE t3.u2 = ?))";
EXECUTE stmt USING convert('A' using latin1);
but it wouldn't since for such case any of the parameter markers
is treated as a constant and no subquery to semijoin optimization
is performed.
Some SQL statements that involves subqueries or stored routines could
fail since execution of subqueries or stored routines is not supported
for theses statements. Unfortunately, parsing error could result in
abnormal termination by firing the following assert
DBUG_ASSERT(m_thd == NULL);
in a destructor of the class sp_head.
The reason of the assert firing is that the method
sp_head::restore_thd_mem_root()
is not called on semantic action code to clean up resources allocated
during parsing. This happens since the macros YYABORT is called instead of
MYSQL_YYABORT by semantic action code for some grammar rules.
So, to fix the bug YYABORT was just replaced with MYSQL_YYABORT.
In case a stored procedure is invoked in PS mode with argument of type ROW()
like the following one:
CALL p1(ROW(10,20))
such statement fails with the error
ER_OPERAND_COLUMNS (1241): Operand should contain 1 column(s)
The reason of emitting the error is that wrong method was invoked
on fixing an item corresponding to an argument of stored procedure -
the method fix_fields_if_needed_for_scalar() was called instead of
fix_fields_if_needed() that should be called.
A user connected to a server with an expired password
can't change password with the statement "SET password=..."
if this statement is run in PS mode. In mentioned use case a user
gets the error ER_MUST_CHANGE_PASSWORD on attempt to run
the statement PREPARE stmt FOR "SET password=...";
The reason of failure to reset password by a locked user using the
statement PREPARE stmt FOR "SET password=..." is that PS-related
statements are not listed among the commands allowed for execution
by a user with expired password. However, simple adding of PS-related
statements (PREPARE FOR/EXECUTE/DEALLOCATE PREPARE ) to the list of
statements allowed for execution by a locked user is not enough
to solve problems, since it opens the opportunity for a locked user
to execute any statement in the PS mode.
To exclude this opportunity, additional checking that the statement
being prepared for execution in PS-mode is the SET statement has to be added.
This extra checking has been added by this patch into the method
Prepared_statement::prepared() that executed on preparing any statement
for execution in PS-mode.
Field_iterator_table_ref::set_field_iterator
Several functions that processed different prepare statements missed
the DT_INIT flag in last parameter of the open_normal_and_derived_tables()
calls. It made context analysis of derived tables dependent on the order in
which the derived tables were processed by mysql_handle_derived(). This
order was induced by the order of SELECTs in all_select_list.
In 10.4 the order of SELECTs in all_select_list became different and lack
of the DT_INIT flags in some open_normal_and_derived_tables() call became
critical as some derived tables were not identified as such.
