WHERE and GROUP BY clause
Loose index scan may use range conditions on the argument of
the MIN/MAX aggregate functions to find the beginning/end of
the interval that satisfies the range conditions in a single go.
These range conditions may have open or closed minimum/maximum
values. When the comparison returns 0 (equal) the code should
check the type of the min/max values of the current interval
and accept or reject the row based on whether the limit is
open or not.
There was a wrong composite condition on checking this and it was
not working in all cases.
Fixed by simplifying the conditions and reversing the logic.
Backport to MySQL 5.0/1 fix by Vladislav Vaintroub:
In Vista and later and also in when using terminal services, when
server is started from command line, client cannot connect to it
via shared memory protocol.
This is a regression introduced when Bug#24731 was fixed. The
reason is that client is trying to attach to shared memory using
global kernel object namespace (all kernel objects are prefixed
with Global\). However, server started from the command line in
Vista and later will create shared memory and events using current
session namespace. Thus, client is unable to find the server and
connection fails.
The fix for the client is to first try to find server using "local"
names (omitting Global\ prefix) and only if server is not found,
trying global namespace.
with gcc 4.3.2
Compiling MySQL with gcc 4.3.2 and later produces a number of
warnings, many of which are new with the recent compiler
versions.
This bug will be resolved in more than one patch to limit the
size of changesets. This is the first patch, fixing a number
of the warnings, predominantly "suggest using parentheses
around && in ||", and empty for and while bodies.
Holding on to the temporary inno hash index latch is an optimization in
many cases, but a pessimization in some others.
Release temporary latches for those corner cases we (or rather, or customers,
thanks!) have identified, that is, when we are about to do something that
might take a really long time, like REPAIR or filesort.
The crash happens because of uninitialized
lex->ssl_cipher, lex->x509_subject, lex->x509_issuer variables.
The fix is to add initialization of these variables for
stored procedures&functions.
The crash happens due to wrong max_length value which is set on
Item_func_round::fix_length_and_dec() stage. The value is set to
args[0]->max_length which is too big in case of LONGTEXT(LONGBLOB) fields.
The fix is to set max_length using float_length() function.
BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK was subject to replication db rules, and
caused the boundary of a transaction not recognized correctly
when these queries were ignored by the rules.
Fixed the problem by skipping replication db rules for these
statements.
Bug#34309: '_PC' macro redefinition
For reasons that are now a mystery, we had defined a CPP symbol to
help ancient compilers work better (in some way that's lost to history).
This interferes with at least one modern compiler.
Now, don't define the _PC symbol. Those other underscore-leading
symbols are suspect also, but at least the names aren't inscrutable.
Let's leave them for now.
On 64-bit Windows: querying MERGE table with keys may cause
server crash.The problem is generic and may affect any statement
accessing MERGE table cardinality values.
When MERGE engine was copying cardinality statistics, it was
using incorrect size of element in cardinality statistics array
(sizeof(ptr)==8 instead of sizeof(ulong)==4), causing access
of memory beyond of the allocated bounds.
old_password() functions
The PASSWORD() and OLD_PASSWORD() functions could lead to
memory reads outside of an internal buffer when used with BLOB
arguments.
String::c_ptr() assumes there is at least one extra byte
in the internally allocated buffer when adding the trailing
'\0'. This, however, may not be the case when a String object
was initialized with externally allocated buffer.
The bug was fixed by adding an additional "length" argument to
make_scrambled_password_323() and make_scrambled_password() in
order to avoid String::c_ptr() calls for
PASSWORD()/OLD_PASSWORD().
However, since the make_scrambled_password[_323] functions are
a part of the client library ABI, the functions with the new
interfaces were implemented with the 'my_' prefix in their
names, with the old functions changed to be wrappers around
the new ones to maintain interface compatibility.
stop/start slave
When stopping and restarting the slave while it is replicating
temporary tables, the server would crash or raise an assertion
failure. This was due to the fact that although temporary tables are
saved between slave threads restart, the reference to the thread in
use (table->in_use) was not being properly updated when the restart
happened (it would still reference the old/invalid thread instead of
the new one).
This patch addresses this issue by resetting the reference to the new
slave thread on slave thread restart.
Created new .test file - mysqldump_restore that does test restore from mysqldump
output for a limited number of basic cases.
Create new .inc file - mysqldump.inc - renames original table and uses mysqldump
output to recreate the table, then uses diff_tables.inc to compare the two tables.
Backported include/diff_tables.inc to facilitate this testing.
New patch incorporating review feedback prior to push.
mysqldump.test - removed redundant call to include/have_log_bin.inc (was used twice in the test!)
Created new .test file - mysqldump_restore that does this for a limited number
of basic cases.
Created new .inc file - mysqldump.inc - renames original table and uses mysqldump
output to recreate the table, then uses diff_tables.inc to compare the two tables.
Backported include/diff_tables.inc to facilitate this testing.
warnings after uncompressed_length
UNCOMPRESSED_LENGTH() did not validate its argument. In
particular, if the argument length was less than 4 bytes,
an uninitialized memory value was returned as a result.
Since the result of COMPRESS() is either an empty string or
a 4-byte length prefix followed by compressed data, the bug was
fixed by ensuring that the argument of UNCOMPRESSED_LENGTH() is
either an empty string or contains at least 5 bytes (as done in
UNCOMPRESS()). This is the best we can do to validate input
without decompressing.
Internal InnoDN FK parser does not recognize '\'' as quotation symbol.
Suggested fix is to add '\'' symbol check for quotation condition
(dict_strip_comments() function).
with a "HAVING" clause though query works
SELECT from views defined like:
CREATE VIEW v1 (view_column)
AS SELECT c AS alias FROM t1 HAVING alias
fails with an error 1356:
View '...' references invalid table(s) or column(s)
or function(s) or definer/invoker of view lack rights
to use them
CREATE VIEW form with a (column list) substitutes
SELECT column names/aliases with names from a
view column list.
However, alias references in HAVING clause was
not substituted.
The Item_ref::print function has been modified
to write correct aliased names of underlying
items into VIEW definition generation/.frm file.
It turns out that this test case no longer fails with the discrepancy
in numbers that was the original cause for disabling this test (and showed
potential genuine issues with the query cache). Therefore
this test is being enabled after some minor adjustment of error codes and
messages.
Details:
1. Add missing "disconnect <session>"
2. Take care that the disconnects are finished when the test terminates
3. Replace error names by error numbers
4. Minor beautifying of script code
Field_time::get_time() did not initialize some members of
MYSQL_TIME which led to valgrind warnings when those members
were accessed in Protocol_simple::store_time().
It is unlikely that this bug could result in wrong data
being returned, since Field_time::get_time() initializes the
'day' member of MYSQL_TIME to 0, so the value of 'day'
in Protocol_simple::store_time() would be 0 regardless
of the values for 'year' and 'month'.
