This is a 5.1 version of the patch.
Problem:
'log' and 'log_slow_queries' were "fixed" variables, i.e. they showed up
in SHOW VARIABLES, but could not be used in expressions like
"select @@log". Also, using them in the SET statement produced an
incorrect "unknown system variable" error.
Solution:
Since as of MySQL 5.1.12 one can enable or disable the general query log
or the slow query log at runtime by changing values of
general_log/slow_query_log, make 'log' and 'log_slow_queries" to be
synonyms for 'general_log' and 'slow_query_log' respectively. This
makes expressions using the '@@var' syntax backward compatible with
5.0 and SHOW VARIABLES output to be consistent with the SET statement.
Since, as of MySQL 5.0.15, CHAR() arguments larger than 255 are converted into multiple result bytes, a single CHAR() argument can now take up to 4 bytes. This patch fixes Item_func_char::fix_length_and_dec() to take this into account.
This patch also fixes a regression introduced by the patch for bug21513. As now we do not always have the 'name' member of Item set for Item_hex_string and Item_bin_string, an own print() method has been added to Item_hex_string so that it could correctly be printed by Item_func::print_args().
Bug#30982 CHAR(..USING..) can return a not-well-formed string
Bug#30986 Character set introducer followed by a HEX string can return bad result
check_well_formed_result moved to Item from Item_str_func
fixed Item_func_char::val_str for proper ucs symbols converting
added check for well formed strings for correct conversion of constants with underscore
charset
The special case with NULL as a regular expression
was handled at prepare time. But in this special case
the item was not marked as fixed. This caused an assertion
at execution time.
Fixed my marking the item as fixed even when known to
return NULL at prepare time.
precision > 0 && scale <= precision'.
A sign of a resulting item of the IFNULL function was not
updated and the maximal length of this result was calculated
improperly. Correct algorithm was copy&pasted from the IF
function implementation.
Even though it returns NULL, the MAKETIME function did not have this property set,
causing a failed assertion (designed to catch exactly this).
Fixed by setting the nullability property of MAKETIME().
Locked rows of the InnoDB storage was silently skipped in the read-committed
isolation level.
QUICK_RANGE_SELECT for unique ranges lacks second (blocking) read
of the record that was read semi-consistently and just skip it.
The handler::read_multi_range_next method has been modified
to retry previous unique range if the previous read was
semi-consistent.
Item_sum_distinct::setup(THD*): Assertion
There was an assertion to detect a bug in ROLLUP
implementation. However the assertion is not true
when used in a subquery context with non-cacheable
statements.
Fixed by turning the assertion to accepted case
(just like it's done for the other aggregate functions).
A rule was introduced by the 5.1 part of the fix for bug 27531 to
prefer filesort over indexed ORDER BY when accessing all of the rows of a
table (because it's faster). This new rule was not accounting for the
presence of a LIMIT clause.
Fixed the condition for this rule so it will prefer filesort over
indexed ORDER BY only if no LIMIT.
