numbers into char fields" and bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of
exponent between Unix and Windows"
Rewrote the code that determines what 'precision' argument should be
passed to sprintf() to fit the string representation of the input number
into the field.
We get finer control over conversion by pre-calculating the exponent, so
we are able to determine which conversion format, 'e' or 'f', will be
used by sprintf().
We also remove the leading zero from the exponent on Windows to make it
compatible with the sprintf() output on other platforms.
filesort() uses file->estimate_rows_upper_bound() call to allocate
internal buffers. If this function returns a value smaller than
a number of row that will be returned later in find_all_keys(),
that can cause server crash.
Fixed by implementing ha_federated::estimate_rows_upper_bound() to
return maximum possible number of rows.
Present estimation for FEDERATED always returns 0 if the linked to the VIEW.
Default values of variables were not subject to upper/lower bounds
and step, while setting variables was. Bounds and step are also
applied to defaults now; defaults are corrected quietly, values
given by the user are corrected, and a correction-warning is thrown
as needed. Lastly, very large values could wrap around, starting
from 0 again. They are bounded at the maximum value for the
respective data-type now if no lower maximum is specified in the
variable's definition.
Denormalized DOUBLE-s can't be properly handled by old MIPS processors.
So we need to enable specific mode for them so IRIX will do use
software round to handle such numbers.
server status wasn't properly sent to the client after the error
by the embedded server. Wasn't noticed before as one usually stopped
retrieving results after he gets an error.
Kill of a CREATE TABLE source_table LIKE statement waiting for a
name-lock on the source table causes a bad lock interaction.
The mysql_create_like_table() has a bug that if the connection is
killed while waiting for the name-lock on the source table, it will
jump to the wrong error path and try to unlock the source table and
LOCK_open, but both weren't locked.
The solution is to simple return when the name lock request is killed,
it's safe to do so because no lock was acquired and no cleanup is needed.
Original bug report also contains description of other problems
related to this scenario but they either already fixed in 5.1 or
will be addressed separately (see bug report for details).
There's currently no way of knowing the determinicity of an UDF.
And the optimizer and the sequence() UDFs were making wrong
assumptions about what the is_const member means.
Plus there was no implementation of update_system_tables()
causing the optimizer to overwrite the information returned by
the <udf>_init function.
Fixed by equating the assumptions about the semantics of
is_const and providing a implementation of update_used_tables().
Added a TODO item for the UDF API change needed to make a better
implementation.
memory corruptions.
The right pointer field of the SEL_ARG structure was not
initialized in the constructor and sometimes that led to
server crashes.
There is no testcase because the bug occurs only when
uninitialized memory has particular values, which can't be
re-created in the test suite.
Problem: passing a non-constant name to the NAME_CONST function results in a crash.
Fix: check the NAME_CONST name argument; return fake item type if we got
non-constant argument(s).
self-join
When doing DELETE with self-join on a MyISAM or MERGE table, it could
happen that a record being retrieved in join_read_next_same() has
already been deleted by previous iterations. That caused the engine's
index_next_same() method to fail with HA_ERR_RECORD_DELETED error and
the whole DELETE query to be aborted with an error.
Fixed by suppressing the HA_ERR_RECORD_DELETED error in
hy_myisam::index_next_same() and ha_myisammrg::index_next_same(). Since
HA_ERR_RECORD_DELETED can only be returned by MyISAM, there is no point
in filtering this error in the SQL layer.
insert ... select.
The 5.0 manual page for mysql_insert_id() does not mention anything
about INSERT ... SELECT, though its current behavior is incosistent
with what the manual says about the plain INSERT.
Fixed by changing the AUTO_INCREMENT and mysql_insert_id() handling
logic in INSERT ... SELECT to be consistent with the INSERT behavior,
the manual, and the changes in 5.1 introduced by WL3146:
- mysql_insert_id() now returns the first automatically generated
AUTO_INCREMENT value that was successfully inserted by INSERT ... SELECT
- if an INSERT ... SELECT statement is executed, and no automatically
generated value is successfully inserted, mysql_insert_id() now returns
the ID of the last inserted row.
Sending several "KILL QUERY" statements to target a connection running
"SELECT SLEEP" could freeze the server.
The locking order in Item_func_sleep was wrong and this could lead to a
dead lock.
This patch solves the issue by resolving the locking order properly.
crashes MySQL 5.122
There was a difference in how UNIONs are handled
on top level and when in sub-query.
Because the rules for sub-queries were syntactically
allowing cases that are not currently supported by
the server we had crashes (this bug) or wrong results
(bug 32051).
Fixed by making the syntax rules for UNIONs match the
ones at top level.
These rules however do not support nesting UNIONs, e.g.
(SELECT a FROM t1 UNION ALL SELECT b FROM t2)
UNION
(SELECT c FROM t3 UNION ALL SELECT d FROM t4)
Supports for statements with nested UNIONs will be
added in a future version.
strmake() calls are easy to get wrong. Add checks in extra
debug mode to identify possible exploits.
Remove some dead code.
Remove some off-by-one errors identified with new checks.
