a69da0c31e MDEV-19761 Before Trigger not processed for Not Null Columns if no explicit value and no DEFAULT
it's incorrect to zero out table->triggers->extra_null_bitmap
before a statement, because if insert uses an explicit field list
and omits a field that has no default value, the field should
get NULL implicitly. So extra_null_bitmap should have 1s for all
fields that have no defaults

* create extra_null_bitmap_init and initialize it as above
* copy extra_null_bitmap_init to extra_null_bitmap for inserts
* still zero out extra_null_bitmap for updates/deletes where
  all fields definitely have a value
* make not_null_fields_have_null_values() to send
  ER_NO_DEFAULT_FOR_FIELD for fields with no default and no value,
  otherwise creation of a trigger with an empty body would change the
  error message

0cf2176b79 MDEV-34033 Exchange partition with virtual columns fails
MDEV-28127 did is_equal() which compared vcol expressions
literally. But another table vcol expression is not equal because of
different table name.

We implement another comparison method is_identical() which respects
different table name in vcol comparison. If any field item points to
table_A and compared field item points to table_B, such items are
treated as equal in (table_A, table_B) comparison. This is done by
cloning table_B expression and renaming any table_B entries to table_A
in it.

3ea71a2c8e MDEV-16699 heap-use-after-free in group_concat with compressed or GIS columns
Field_blob::store() has special code for GROUP_CONCAT temporary table
(to store blob values in Blob_mem_storage - this prevents them
from being freed/overwritten when a next row is read).

Field_geom and Field_blob_compressed inherit from Field_blob but they
have their own ::store() method without this special Blob_mem_storage
support.

Considering that non-grouping CONCAT() of such fields converts
them to plain BLOB, let's do the same for GROUP_CONCAT. To do it,
Item_func_group_concat::setup will signal that it's creating
a temporary table for GROUP_CONCAT, and Field_blog::make_new_field()
override will create base Field_blob when under group concat.

5e12d49205 MDEV-34295 CAST(char_col AS DOUBLE) prints redundant spaces in a warning
Field_string::val_int(), Field_string::val_real(), Field_string::val_decimal()
passed the whole buffer of field_length bytes to data type conversion routines.
This made conversion routines to print redundant trailing spaces in case of warnings.

Adding a method Field_string::to_lex_cstring() and using it inside
val_int(), val_real(), val_decimal(), val_str().

After this change conversion routines get the same value with what val_str() returns,
and no redundant trailing spaces are displayed.

7246054cbb MDEV-33442 REPAIR TABLE corrupts UUIDs
Problem:
REPAIR TABLE executed for a pre-MDEV-29959 table (with the old UUID format)
updated the server version in the FRM file without rewriting the data,
so it created a new FRM for old UUIDs. After that MariaDB could not
read UUIDs correctly.

Fix:

- Adding a new virtual method in class Type_handler:

      virtual bool type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade() const;

  * For the up-to-date data types it returns "this".
  * For the data types which need to be implicitly upgraded
    during REPAIR TABLE or ALTER TABLE, it returns a pointer
    to a new replacement data type handler.

    Old VARCHAR and old UUID type handlers override this method.
    See more comments below.

- Changing the semantics of the method

    Type_handler::Column_definition_implicit_upgrade(Column_definition *c)

  to the opposite, so now:
    * c->type_handler() references the old data type (to upgrade from)
    * "this" references the new data type (to upgrade to).

  Before this change Column_definition_implicit_upgrade() was supposed
  to be called with the old data type handler (to upgrade from).

  Renaming the method to Column_definition_implicit_upgrade_to_this(),
  to avoid automatic merges in this method.

  Reflecting this change in Create_field::upgrade_data_types().

- Replacing the hard-coded data type tests inside handler::check_old_types()
  to a call for the new virtual method
  Type_handler::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()

- Overriding Type_handler_fbt::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
  to call a new method FbtImpl::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade().

  Reasoning:

  Type_handler_fbt is a template, so it has access only to "this".
  So in case of UUID data types, the type handler for old UUID
  knows nothing about the type handler of new UUID inside sql_type_fixedbin.h.
  So let's have Type_handler_fbt delegate type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
  to its Type_collection, which knows both new UUID and old UUID.

- Adding Type_collection_uuid::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade().
  It returns a pointer to the new UUID type handler.

- Overriding Type_handler_var_string::type_handler_for_implicit_upgrade()
  to return a pointer to type_handler_varchar (true VARCHAR).

- Cleanup: these two methods:
    handler::check_old_types()
    handler::ha_check_for_upgrade()
  were always called consequently.
  So moving the call for check_old_types() inside ha_check_for_upgrade(),
  and making check_old_types() private.

- Cleanup: removing the "bool varchar" parameter from fill_alter_inplace_info(),
  as its not used any more.

e48bd474a2 MDEV-15703: Crash in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT DEFAULT ?)' USING DEFAULT
This patch fixes the issue with passing the DEFAULT or IGNORE values to
positional parameters for some kind of SQL statements to be executed
as prepared statements.

The main idea of the patch is to associate an actual value being passed
by the USING clause with the positional parameter represented by
the Item_param class. Such association must be performed on execution of
UPDATE statement in PS/SP mode. Other corner cases that results in
server crash is on handling CREATE TABLE when positional parameter
placed after the DEFAULT clause or CALL statement and passing either
the value DEFAULT or IGNORE as an actual value for the positional parameter.
This case is fixed by checking whether an error is set in diagnostics
area at the function pack_vcols() on return from the function pack_expression()

a7ee3bc58b MDEV-29954 Unique hash key on column prefix is computed incorrectly
use the original, not the truncated, field in the long unique prefix,
that is, in the hash(left(field, length)) expression.

because MyISAM CHECK/REPAIR in compute_vcols() moves table->field
but not prefix fields from keyparts.

Also, implement Field_string::cmp_prefix() for prefix comparison
of CHAR columns to work.

4ced4898fd MDEV-32958 Unusable key notes do not get reported for some operations
Enable unusable key notes for non-equality predicates:
   <, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE

Note, in some scenarios it displays duplicate notes, e.g.
for queries with ORDER BY:

  SELECT * FROM t1
  WHERE    indexed_string_column >= 10
  ORDER BY indexed_string_column
  LIMIT 5;

This should be tolarable. Getting rid of the diplicate note
completely would need a much more complex patch, which is
not desiable in 10.6.

Details:

- Changing RANGE_OPT_PARAM::note_unusable_keys from bool
  to a new data type Item_func::Bitmap, so the caller can
  choose with a better granuality which predicates
  should raise unusable key notes inside the range optimizer:
    a. all predicates (=, <=>, <, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE)
    b. all predicates except equality (=, <=>)
    c. none of the predicates

  "b." is needed because in some scenarios equality predicates (=, <=>)
  send unusable key notes at an earlier stage, before the range optimizer,
  during update_ref_and_keys(). Calling the range optimizer with
  "all predicates" would produce duplicate notes for = and <=> in such cases.

- Fixing get_quick_record_count() to call the range optimizer
  with "all predicates except equality" instead of "none of the predicates".
  Before this change the range optimizer suppressed all notes for
  non-equality predicates: <, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE.
  This actually fixes the reported problem.

- Fixing JOIN::make_range_rowid_filters() to call the range optimizer
  with "all predicates except equality" instead of "all predicates".
  Before this change the range optimizer produced duplicate notes
  for = and <=> during a rowid_filter optimization.

- Cleanup:
  Adding the op_collation argument to Field::raise_note_cannot_use_key_part()
  and displaying the operation collation rather than the argument collation
  in the unusable key note. This is important for operations with more than
  two arguments: BETWEEN and IN, e.g.:

    SELECT * FROM t1
    WHERE column_utf8mb3_general_ci
          BETWEEN 'a' AND 'b' COLLATE utf8mb3_unicode_ci;

    SELECT * FROM t1
    WHERE column_utf8mb3_general_ci
          IN ('a', 'b' COLLATE utf8mb3_unicode_ci);

    The note for 'a' now prints utf8mb3_unicode_ci as the collation.
    which is the collation of the entire operation:

      Cannot use key key1 part[0] for lookup:
      "`column_utf8mb3_general_ci`" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci` >=
      "'a'" of collation `utf8mb3_unicode_ci`

    Before this change it printed the collation of 'a',
    so the note was confusing:

      Cannot use key key1 part[0] for lookup:
      "`column_utf8mb3_general_ci`" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci` >=
      "'a'" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci`"

e53e7cd134 MDEV-20545 Assertion col.vers_sys_end() in dict_index_t::vers_history_row
Index values for row_start/row_end was wrongly calculated for inplace
ALTER for some layout of virtual fields.

Possible impact

  1. history row is not detected upon build clustered index for
     inplace ALTER which may lead to duplicate key errors on
     auto-increment and FTS index add.
  2. foreign key constraint may falsely fail.
  3. after inplace ALTER before server restart trx-based system
     versioning can cause server crash or incorrect data written upon
     UPDATE.

The MDEV-29693 conflict resolution is from Monty, as well as is
a bug fix where ANALYZE TABLE wrongly built histograms for
single-column PRIMARY KEY.
Also includes a fix for safe_malloc error reporting.

Other things:
- Copied main.log_slow from 10.4 to avoid mtr issue

Disabled test:
- spider/bugfix.mdev_27239 because we started to get
  +Error	1429 Unable to connect to foreign data source: localhost
  -Error	1158 Got an error reading communication packets
- main.delayed
  - Bug#54332 Deadlock with two connections doing LOCK TABLE+INSERT DELAYED
    This part is disabled for now as it fails randomly with different
    warnings/errors (no corruption).

9d19b65269 MDEV-22243 type_test.type_test_double fails with 'NUMERIC_SCALE NULL'
There where several reasons why the test failed:
- Constructors for Field_double and Field_float changed an argument
  to the constructor instead of a the correct class variable.
- gcc 7.5.0 produced wrong code when inlining Field_double constructor
  into Field_test_double constructor.

Fixed by changing the correct class variable and make the constructors
not inline to go around the gcc bug.

4e9322e2ff MDEV-32203 Raise notes when an index cannot be used on data type mismatch
Raise notes if indexes cannot be used:
- in case of data type or collation mismatch (diferent error messages).
- in case if a table field was replaced to something else
  (e.g. Item_func_conv_charset) during a condition rewrite.

Added option to write warnings and notes to the slow query log for
slow queries.

New variables added/changed:

- note_verbosity, with is a set of the following options:
  basic            - All old notes
  unusable_keys    - Print warnings about keys that cannot be used
                     for select, delete or update.
  explain          - Print unusable_keys warnings for EXPLAIN querys.

The default is 'basic,explain'. This means that for old installations
the only notable new behavior is that one will get notes about
unusable keys when one does an EXPLAIN for a query. One can turn all
of all notes by either setting note_verbosity to "" or setting sql_notes=0.

- log_slow_verbosity has a new option 'warnings'. If this is set
  then warnings and notes generated are printed in the slow query log
  (up to log_slow_max_warnings times per statement).

- log_slow_max_warnings   - Max number of warnings written to
                            slow query log.

Other things:
- One can now use =ALL for any 'set' variable to set all options at once.
  For example using "note_verbosity=ALL" in a config file or
  "SET @@note_verbosity=ALL' in SQL.
- mysqldump will in the future use @@note_verbosity=""' instead of
  @sql_notes=0 to disable notes.
- Added "enum class Data_type_compatibility" and changing the return type
  of all Field::can_optimize*() methods from "bool" to this new data type.

Reviewer & Co-author: Alexander Barkov <bar@mariadb.com>
- The code that prints out the notes comes mainly from Alexander

a6bf4b5807 MDEV-29693 ANALYZE TABLE still flushes table definition cache when engine-independent statistics is used
This commits enables reloading of engine-independent statistics
without flushing the table from table definition cache.

This is achieved by allowing multiple version of the
TABLE_STATISTICS_CB object and having independent pointers to it in
TABLE and TABLE_SHARE.  The TABLE_STATISTICS_CB object have reference
pointers and are freed when no one is pointing to it anymore.

TABLE's TABLE_STATISTICS_CB pointer is updated to use the
TABLE_SHARE's pointer when read_statistics_for_tables() is called at
the beginning of a query.

Main changes:
- read_statistics_for_table() will allocate an new TABLE_STATISTICS_CB
  object.
- All get_stat_values() functions has a new parameter that tells
  where collected data should be stored. get_stat_values() are not
  using the table_field object anymore to store data.
- All get_stat_values() functions returns 1 if they found any
  data in the statistics tables.

Other things:
- Fixed INSERT DELAYED to not read statistics tables.
- Removed Statistics_state from TABLE_STATISTICS_CB as this is not
  needed anymore as wer are not changing TABLE_SHARE->stats_cb while
  calculating or loading statistics.
- Store values used with store_from_statistical_minmax_field() in
  TABLE_STATISTICS_CB::mem_root. This allowed me to remove the function
  delete_stat_values_for_table_share().
  - Field_blob::store_from_statistical_minmax_field() is implemented
    but is not normally used as we do not yet support EIS statistics
    for blobs. For example Field_blob::update_min() and
    Field_blob::update_max() are not implemented.
    Note that the function can be called if there is an concurrent
    "ALTER TABLE MODIFY field BLOB" running because of a bug in
    ALTER TABLE where it deletes entries from column_stats
    before it has an exclusive lock on the table.
- Use result of field->val_str(&val) as a pointer to the result
  instead of val (safetly fix).
- Allocate memory for collected statistics in THD::mem_root, not in
  in TABLE::mem_root. This could cause the TABLE object to grow if a
  ANALYZE TABLE was run many times on the same table.
  This was done in allocate_statistics_for_table(),
  create_min_max_statistical_fields_for_table() and
  create_min_max_statistical_fields_for_table_share().
- Store in TABLE_STATISTICS_CB::stats_available which statistics was
  found in the statistics tables.
- Removed index_table from class Index_prefix_calc as it was not used.
- Added TABLE_SHARE::LOCK_statistics to ensure we don't load EITS
  in parallel. First thread will load it, others will reuse the
  loaded data.
- Eliminate read_histograms_for_table(). The loading happens within
  read_statistics_for_tables() if histograms are needed.
  One downside is that if we have read statistics without histograms
  before and someone requires histograms, we have to read all statistics
  again (once) from the statistics tables.
  A smaller downside is the need to call alloc_root() for each
  individual histogram. Before we could allocate all the space for
  histograms with a single alloc_root.
- Fixed bug in MyISAM and Aria where they did not properly notice
  that table had changed after analyze table. This was not a problem
  before this patch as then the MyISAM and Aria tables where flushed
  as part of ANALYZE table which did hide this issue.
- Fixed a bug in ANALYZE table where table->records could be seen as 0
  in collect_statistics_for_table(). The effect of this unlikely bug
  was that a full table scan could be done even if
  analyze_sample_percentage was not set to 1.
- Changed multiple mallocs in a row to use multi_alloc_root().
- Added a mutex protection in update_statistics_for_table() to ensure
  that several tables are not updating the statistics at the same time.

Some of the changes in sql_statistics.cc are based on a patch from

9edb1a5ce3 MDEV-30483 After upgrade to 10.6 from Mysql 5.7 seeing "InnoDB: Column last_update in table mysql.innodb_table_stats is BINARY(4) NOT NULL but should be INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL"
Problem:

Field_timestampf implementations differ in MySQL and MariaDB:
- MariaDB sets the UNSIGNED_FLAG in Field::flags
- MySQL does not

The reference table structures
(defined in table_stats_schema and index_stats_schema)
expected the last_update column to have the DATA_UNSIGNED flag,
because MariaDB's Field_timestampf has the UNSIGNED_FLAG.
It worked fine on pure MariaDB installations.

However, if a MariaDB server starts over a MySQL-5.7 data directory during
a migration, the last_update column does not have DATA_UNSIGNED flag,
because MySQL's Field_timestampf does not have the UNSIGNED_FLAG.

This made InnoDB (after the migration from MySQL) complain into the server
error log about the unexpected data type.

The actual fix is done in storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc:
It removes DATA_UNSIGNED from the prtype_mask member of the reference columns,
so now it does not require the underlying columns to have this flag.

The rest of the fix is needed for MTR tests.
The new data type plugin TYPE_MYSQL_TIMESTAMP implements a slightly modified
version of Field_timestampf, which removes the unsigned flag, so
it works like MySQL's Field_timestampf.

The MTR test ALTERs the data type of the columns
table_stats_schema.last_update and index_stats_schema.last_update
from TIMESTAMP to TYPE_MYSQL_TIMESTAMP, then makes InnoDB
verify the structure of the two statistics tables by creating
and populating an InnoDB table t1.

Without the fix made storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc,
MTR complains about unexpected warnings in the server error log:

[ERROR] InnoDB: Column last_update in table mysql.innodb_table_stats is ...
[ERROR] InnoDB: Column last_update in table mysql.innodb_index_stats is ...

With the fix made storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc these warnings
go away.

8020b1bd73 MDEV-30034 UNIQUE USING HASH accepts duplicate entries for tricky collations
- Adding a new argument "flag" to MY_COLLATION_HANDLER::strnncollsp_nchars()
  and a flag MY_STRNNCOLLSP_NCHARS_EMULATE_TRIMMED_TRAILING_SPACES.
  The flag defines if strnncollsp_nchars() should emulate trailing spaces
  which were possibly trimmed earlier (e.g. in InnoDB CHAR compression).
  This is important for NOPAD collations.

  For example, with this input:
   - str1= 'a '    (Latin letter a followed by one space)
   - str2= 'a  '   (Latin letter a followed by two spaces)
   - nchars= 3
  if the flag is given, strnncollsp_nchars() will virtually restore
  one trailing space to str1 up to nchars (3) characters and compare two
  strings as equal:
  - str1= 'a  '  (one extra trailing space emulated)
  - str2= 'a  '  (as is)

  If the flag is not given, strnncollsp_nchars() does not add trailing
  virtual spaces, so in case of a NOPAD collation, str1 will be compared
  as less than str2 because it is shorter.

- Field_string::cmp_prefix() now passes the new flag.
  Field_varstring::cmp_prefix() and Field_blob::cmp_prefix() do
  not pass the new flag.

- The branch in cmp_whole_field() in storage/innobase/rem/rem0cmp.cc
  (which handles the CHAR data type) now also passed the new flag.

- Fixing UCA collations to respect the new flag.
  Other collations are possibly also affected, however
  I had no success in making an SQL script demonstrating the problem.
  Other collations will be extended to respect this flags in a separate
  patch later.

- Changing the meaning of the last parameter of Field::cmp_prefix()
  from "number of bytes" (internal length)
  to "number of characters" (user visible length).

  The code calling cmp_prefix() from handler.cc was wrong.
  After this change, the call in handler.cc became correct.

  The code calling cmp_prefix() from key_rec_cmp() in key.cc
  was adjusted according to this change.

- Old strnncollsp_nchar() related tests in unittest/strings/strings-t.c
  now pass the new flag.
  A few new tests also were added, without the flag.
