handling.
The problem was that parsing of nested regular expression involved
recursive calls. Such recursion didn't take into account the amount of
available stack space, which ended up leading to stack overflow crashes.
- remove the superfluous file
- add an preemptive removal of the outfile before the
SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE ...
2. Remove an already disabled subtest
It's functionality is covered by tests in the suite funcs_1.
3. Adjust the formatting within some sub testcase to the formatting used
in all other sub testcases
during EXPLAIN
Before the patch, send_eof() of some subclasses of
select_result (e.g., select_send::send_eof()) could
handle being called after an error had occured while others
could not. The methods that were not well-behaved would trigger
an ASSERT on debug builds. Release builds were not affected.
Consider the following query as an example for how the ASSERT
could be triggered:
A user without execute privilege on f() does
SELECT MAX(key1) INTO @dummy FROM t1 WHERE f() < 1;
resulting in "ERROR 42000: execute command denied to user..."
The server would end the query by calling send_eof(). The
fact that the error had occured would make the ASSERT trigger.
select_dumpvar::send_eof() was the offending method in the
bug report, but the problem also applied to other
subclasses of select_result. This patch uniforms send_eof()
of all subclasses of select_result to handle being called
after an error has occured.

Bug#989: If DROP TABLE while there's an active transaction, wrong binlog order
WL#4284: Transactional DDL locking
Currently the MySQL server does not keep metadata locks on
schema objects for the duration of a transaction, thus failing
to guarantee the integrity of the schema objects being used
during the transaction and to protect then from concurrent
DDL operations. This also poses a problem for replication as
a DDL operation might be replicated even thought there are
active transactions using the object being modified.
The solution is to defer the release of metadata locks until
a active transaction is either committed or rolled back. This
prevents other statements from modifying the table for the
entire duration of the transaction. This provides commitment
ordering for guaranteeing serializability across multiple
transactions.
- Incompatible change:
If MySQL's metadata locking system encounters a lock conflict,
the usual schema is to use the try and back-off technique to
avoid deadlocks -- this schema consists in releasing all locks
and trying to acquire them all in one go.
But in a transactional context this algorithm can't be utilized
as its not possible to release locks acquired during the course
of the transaction without breaking the transaction commitments.
To avoid deadlocks in this case, the ER_LOCK_DEADLOCK will be
returned if a lock conflict is encountered during a transaction.
Let's consider an example:
A transaction has two statements that modify table t1, then table
t2, and then commits. The first statement of the transaction will
acquire a shared metadata lock on table t1, and it will be kept
utill COMMIT to ensure serializability.
At the moment when the second statement attempts to acquire a
shared metadata lock on t2, a concurrent ALTER or DROP statement
might have locked t2 exclusively. The prescription of the current
locking protocol is that the acquirer of the shared lock backs off
-- gives up all his current locks and retries. This implies that
the entire multi-statement transaction has to be rolled back.
- Incompatible change:
FLUSH commands such as FLUSH PRIVILEGES and FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK won't cause locked tables to be implicitly unlocked anymore.
We didn't expect "error: no error", although this is
in fact a legitimate state (if something is erroneous
on the master, but not on the slave, e.g. INSERT fails
on master due to UNIQUE constraint which does not exist
on slave).
We now list the ignore for "0: no error" the same way
as any other ignore; moreover, if no or an empty
--slave-skip-errors is passed at start-up, we show
"OFF" instead of empty list, as intended. (The code
for that was there, but was only run for the empty-
argument case, even if it subsequently tested for
both conditions.)
Problem 1: not_embedded_server runs SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST near the beginning.
check_testcase executes a query to the server before that. There is a race here,
because there is no guarantee that the thread executing check_testcase's query is
finished.
Problem 2: The SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST doens't seem very useful in the test.
It's at least misplaced.
Fix to both problems: Comment out SELECT FROM I_S.PROCESSLIST.
behave randomly with mysql_change_user.
The test case had to be moved into not_embedded_server.test file,
because SHOW GLOBAL STATUS does not work properly in embedded
server (see bug 34517).
