anozdrin/alik@quad. d3575ce0e4 A fix for Bug#35289: Too many connections -- wrong SQL state
in some case.

ER_CON_COUNT_ERROR is defined with SQL state 08004. However, this SQL state is not always
returned.

This error can be thrown in two cases:

  1. when an ordinary user (a user w/o SUPER privilege) is connecting,
    and the number of active user connections is equal or greater than
    max_connections.

  2. when a user is connecting and the number of active user connections is
    already (max_connections + 1) -- that means that no more connections will
    be accepted regardless of the user credentials.

In the 1-st case, SQL state is correct.

The bug happens in the 2-nd case -- on UNIX the client gets 00000 SQL state, which is
absolutely wrong (00000 means "not error SQL state); on Windows
the client accidentally gets HY000 (which means "unknown SQL state).

The cause of the problem is that the server rejects extra connection
prior to read a packet with client capabilities. Thus, the server
does not know if the client supports SQL states or not (if the client
supports 4.1 protocol or not). So, the server supposes the worst and
does not send SQL state at all.

The difference in behavior on UNIX and Windows occurs because on Windows
CLI_MYSQL_REAL_CONNECT() invokes create_shared_memory(), which returns
an error (in default configuration, where shared memory is not configured).
Then, the client does not reset this error, so when the connection is
rejected, SQL state is HY000 (from the error from create_shared_memory()).

The bug appeared after test case for Bug#33507 -- before that, this behavior
just had not been tested.

The fix is to 1) reset the error after create_shared_memory();
2) set SQL state to 'unknown error' if it was not received from
the server.

A separate test case is not required, since the behavior is already
tested in connect.test.

Note for doc-team: the manual should be updated to say that under
some circumstances, 'Too many connections' has HY000 SQL state.

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
