The optimizer transforms DISTINCT into a GROUP BY
when possible.
It does that by constructing the same structure
(a list of ORDER instances) the parser makes when
parsing GROUP BY.
While doing that it also eliminates duplicates.
But if a duplicate is found it doesn't advance the
pointer to ref_pointer array, so the next
(and subsequent) ORDER structures point to the wrong
element in the SELECT list.
Fixed by advancing the pointer in ref_pointer_array
even in the case of a duplicate.
NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO mode.
The table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable wasn't reset after
reading a row which may lead to inserting a wrong value to the auto-increment
field to the following row.
The table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable is reset now right after a
row is being written in the read_fixed_length() and the read_sep_field()
functions.
Removed wrong setting of the table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable in
the read_sep_field() function.
In certain cases AFTER UPDATE/DELETE triggers on NDB tables that referenced
subject table didn't see the results of operation which caused invocation
of those triggers. In other words AFTER trigger invoked as result of update
(or deletion) of particular row saw version of this row before update (or
deletion).
The problem occured because NDB handler in those cases postponed actual
update/delete operations to be able to perform them later as one batch.
This fix solves the problem by disabling this optimization for particular
operation if subject table has AFTER trigger for this operation defined.
To achieve this we introduce two new flags for handler::extra() method:
HA_EXTRA_DELETE_CANNOT_BATCH and HA_EXTRA_UPDATE_CANNOT_BATCH.
These are called if there exists AFTER DELETE/UPDATE triggers during a
statement that potentially can generate calls to delete_row()/update_row().
This includes multi_delete/multi_update statements as well as insert statements
that do delete/update as part of an ON DUPLICATE statement.
IN/BETWEEN predicates in sorting expressions.
Wrong results may occur when the select list contains an expression
with IN/BETWEEN predicate that differs from a sorting expression by
an additional NOT only.
Added the method Item_func_opt_neg::eq to compare correctly expressions
containing [NOT] IN/BETWEEN.
The eq method inherited from the Item_func returns TRUE when comparing
'a IN (1,2)' with 'a NOT IN (1,2)' that is not, of course, correct.
LEFT JOIN
Fixed that in certain situations MATCH ... AGAINST returns false hits
for NULLs produced by LEFT JOIN when there is no fulltext index
available.
conditions.
When allocating memory for KEY_FIELD/SARGABLE_PARAM structures the
function update_ref_and_keys did not take into account the fact that
a single row equality could be replaced by several simple equalities.
Fixed by adjusting the counter cond_count accordingly for each subquery
when performing substitution of a row equality for simple equalities.
Pushbuild fixes:
- Make MAX_SEL_ARGS smaller (even 16K records_in_range() calls is
more than it makes sense to do in typical cases)
- Don't call sel_arg->test_use_count() if we've already allocated
more than MAX_SEL_ARGs elements. The test will succeed but will take
too much time for the test suite (and not provide much value).
NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO mode.
In the NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO mode the table->auto_increment_field_not_null
variable is used to indicate that a non-NULL value was specified by the user
for an auto_increment column. When an INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE updates the
auto_increment field this variable is set to true and stays unchanged for the
next insert operation. This makes the next inserted row sometimes wrongly have
0 as the value of the auto_increment field.
Now the fill_record() function resets the table->auto_increment_field_not_null
variable before filling the record.
The table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable is also reset by the
open_table() function for a case if we missed some auto_increment_field_not_null
handling bug.
Now the table->auto_increment_field_not_null is reset at the end of the
mysql_load() function.
Reset the table->auto_increment_field_not_null variable after each
write_row() call in the copy_data_between_tables() function.
ARCHIVE table
ARCHIVE table was truncated by REPAIR TABLE ... USE_FRM statement.
The table handler returned its file name extensions in a wrong order.
REPAIR TABLE believed it has to use the meta file to create a new table
from it.
With the fixed order, REPAIR TABLE does now use the data file to create
a new table. So REPAIR TABLE ... USE_FRM works well with ARCHIVE engine
now.
This issue affects 5.0 only, since in 5.1 ARCHIVE engine stores meta
information and data in the same file.
