Bug#19022 "Memory bug when switching db during trigger execution"
Bug#17199 "Problem when view calls function from another database."
Bug#18444 "Fully qualified stored function names don't work correctly in
SELECT statements"
Documentation note: this patch introduces a change in behaviour of prepared
statements.
This patch adds a few new invariants with regard to how THD::db should
be used. These invariants should be preserved in future:
- one should never refer to THD::db by pointer and always make a deep copy
(strmake, strdup)
- one should never compare two databases by pointer, but use strncmp or
my_strncasecmp
- TABLE_LIST object table->db should be always initialized in the parser or
by creator of the object.
For prepared statements it means that if the current database is changed
after a statement is prepared, the database that was current at prepare
remains active. This also means that you can not prepare a statement that
implicitly refers to the current database if the latter is not set.
This is not documented, and therefore needs documentation. This is NOT a
change in behavior for almost all SQL statements except:
- ALTER TABLE t1 RENAME t2
- OPTIMIZE TABLE t1
- ANALYZE TABLE t1
- TRUNCATE TABLE t1 --
until this patch t1 or t2 could be evaluated at the first execution of
prepared statement.
CURRENT_DATABASE() still works OK and is evaluated at every execution
of prepared statement.
Note, that in stored routines this is not an issue as the default
database is the database of the stored procedure and "use" statement
is prohibited in stored routines.
This patch makes obsolete the use of check_db_used (it was never used in the
old code too) and all other places that check for table->db and assign it
from THD::db if it's NULL, except the parser.
How this patch was created: THD::{db,db_length} were replaced with a
LEX_STRING, THD::db. All the places that refer to THD::{db,db_length} were
manually checked and:
- if the place uses thd->db by pointer, it was fixed to make a deep copy
- if a place compared two db pointers, it was fixed to compare them by value
(via strcmp/my_strcasecmp, whatever was approproate)
Then this intermediate patch was used to write a smaller patch that does the
same thing but without a rename.
TODO in 5.1:
- remove check_db_used
- deploy THD::set_db in mysql_change_db
See also comments to individual files.
- Include prefix files that renames all public functions in yaSSLs
OpenSSL API to ya<function_name>. They will otherwise conflict
with OpenSSL functions if loaded by an application that uses OpenSSL
as well as libmysqlclient with yaSSL support.
Two threads both try a shutdown sequence which creates a race to the
de-init/free of certain resources.
This exists in similar form in the client as 17926: "mysql.exe crashes
when ctrl-c is pressed in windows."
Bug#18282 "INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES provides inconsistent info about invalid views"
This bug caused crashes or resulted in wrong data being returned
when one tried to obtain information from I_S tables about views
using stored functions.
It was caused by the fact that we were using LEX representing
statement which were doing select from I_S tables as active LEX
when contents of I_S table were built. So state of this LEX both
affected and was affected by open_tables() calls which happened
during this process. This resulted in wrong behavior and in
violations of some of invariants which caused crashes.
This fix tries to solve this problem by properly saving/resetting
and restoring part of LEX which affects and is affected by the
process of opening tables and views in get_all_tables() routine.
To simplify things we separated this part of LEX in a new class
and made LEX its descendant.
When reading a view definition from a .frm file it was
throwing a SQL error if the DEFINER user is not defined.
Changed it to a warning to match the (documented) case
when a view with undefined DEFINER user is created.
The check for view security was lacking several points :
1. Check with the right set of permissions : for each table ref that
participates in a view there were the right credentials to use in it's
security_ctx member, but these weren't used for checking the credentials.
This makes hard enforcing the SQL SECURITY DEFINER|INVOKER property
consistently.
2. Because of the above the security checking for views was just ruled out
in explicit ways in several places.
3. The security was checked only for the columns of the tables that are
brought into the query from a view. So if there is no column reference
outside of the view definition it was not detecting the lack of access to
the tables in the view in SQL SECURITY INVOKER mode.
The fix below tries to fix the above 3 points.
Replaced COND_refresh with COND_global_read_lock becasue of a bug in NTPL threads when using different mutexes as arguments to pthread_cond_wait()
The original code caused a hang in FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK in some circumstances because pthread_cond_broadcast() was not delivered to other threads.
This fixes:
Bug#16986: Deadlock condition with MyISAM tables
Bug#20048: FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK causes a deadlock
