OLD VALUE OF INPUT PARAMETER. The user-visible problem was that CASE-control-flow function (not CASE-statement) misbehaved in stored routines under some circumstances. The problem resulted in a crash or wrong data returned. The error happened when expressions in CASE-function were not of the same character set. A CASE-function should return values of the same character set for all branches. Internally, that means a new Item-instance for the CONVERT(... USING <some charset>)-function is added to the item tree when needed. The problem was that such changes were not properly recorded using THD::change_item_tree(), thus dangling pointers remain in the item tree after THD::rollback_item_tree_changes(), which lead to undefined behavior (i.e. crash / wrong data) for subsequent executions of the stored routine. This bug was introduced by a patch for Bug 11753363 (44793 - CHARACTER SETS: CASE CLAUSE, UCS2 OR UTF32, FAILURE). The fixed function is Item_func_case::fix_length_and_dec(). New CONVERT-items are added in agg_item_set_converter(), which calls THD::change_item_tree(). The problem was that an intermediate array was passed to agg_item_set_converter(). Thus, THD::change_item_tree() there was called on intermediate objects. Note: those intermediate objects are allocated on THD's memory root, so it's Ok to put them into "changed item lists". The fix is to track changes on the correct objects.
This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it. Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not conflict with it. All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the problem: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-test-suite.html If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests, use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode, the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run. For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests with an external server: mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and other relevant options. With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some tests cannot run with an external server. You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test extension. For example: xemacs t/test_case_name.test In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables, load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it. We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not conflict too much with existing tables). Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and end by dropping them again. This ensures that you can run the test over and over again. If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your test case, you should create the result file as follows: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name or mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify that the bug is corrected in future releases. To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail to bugs@lists.mysql.com
