and auto_increment keys
Problems:
1. ALTER TABLE ... ORDER BY... doesn't make sence if there's a
user-defined clustered index in the table.
2. using a secondary index is slower than using a clustered one
for a table scan.
Fixes:
1. raise a warning.
2. use the clustered index.
If a stored function that contains a drop temporary table statement
is invoked by a create temporary table of the same name may cause
a server crash. The problem is that when dropping a table no check
is done to ensure that table is not being used by some outer query
(or outer statement), potentially leaving the outer query with a
reference to a stale (freed) table.
The solution is when dropping a temporary table, always check if
the table is being used by some outer statement as a temporary
table can be dropped inside stored procedures.
The check is performed by looking at the TABLE::query_id value for
temporary tables. To simplify this check and to solve a bug related
to handling of temporary tables in prelocked mode, this patch changes
the way in which this member is used to track the fact that table is
used/unused. Now we ensure that TABLE::query_id is zero for unused
temporary tables (which means that all temporary tables which were
used by a statement should be marked as free for reuse after it's
execution has been completed).
rebuild the table.
The problem was that ROW_FORMAT clause in ALTER TABLE did not trigger
table reconstruction.
The fix is to rebuild a table if ROW_FORMAT is specified.

Problem: if a partial unique key followed by a non-partial one we declare
the second one as a primary key.
Fix: sort non-partial unique keys before partial ones.
The root cause of this defect is that a call to my_error() is using a
'LEX_STRING' parameter instead of a 'char*'
This patch fixes the failing calls to my_error(), as well as similar calls
found during investigation.
This is a compiling bug (see the instrumentation in the bug report), no test cases provided.
Inserting Data.
The problem was that under some circumstances Field class was not
properly initialized before calling create_length_to_internal_length()
function, which led to assert failure.
The fix is to do the proper initialization.
The user-visible problem was that under some circumstances
CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement crashed the server or led
to wrong error message (wrong results).
CPUs / Intel's ICC compile
The bug is a combination of two problems:
1. IA64/ICC MySQL binaries use glibc's qsort(), not the one in mysys.
2. The order relation implemented by join_tab_cmp() is not transitive,
i.e. it is possible to choose such a, b and c that (a < b) && (b < c)
but (c < a). This implies that result of a sort using the relation
implemented by join_tab_cmp() depends on the order in which
elements are compared, i.e. the result is implementation-specific. Since
choose_plan() uses qsort() to pre-sort the
join tables using join_tab_cmp() as a compare function, the results of
the sorting may vary depending on qsort() implementation.
It is neither possible nor important to implement a better ordering
algorithm in join_tab_cmp(). Therefore the only way to fix it is to
force our own qsort() to be used by renaming it to my_qsort(), so we don't depend
on linker to decide that.
This patch also "fixes" bug #20530: qsort redefinition violates the
standard.
- Reserver namespace and place in frm for TABLE_CHECKSUM and PAGE_CHECKSUM create options
- Added syncing of directory when creating .frm files
- Portability fixes
- Added missing cast that could cause bugs
- Code cleanups
- Made some bit functions inline
- Moved things out of myisam.h to my_handler.h to make them more accessable
- Renamed some myisam variables and defines to make them more globaly usable (as they are used outside of MyISAM)
- Fixed bugs in error conditions
- Use compiler time asserts instead of run time
- Fixed indentation
HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_DELETE -> HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_DROP as the old name was wrong
(Added a define for old value to ensure we don't break any old code)
Added HA_EXTRA_PREPARE_FOR_RENAME as a signal for rename (before we used a DROP signal which is wrong)
- Initialize error messages early to get better errors when mysqld or an engine fails to start
- Fix windows bug that query_performance_frequency was not initialized if registry code failed
- thread_stack -> my_thread_stack_size
Fixed the usage of spatial data (and Point in specific) with
non-spatial indexes.
Several problems :
- The length of the Point class was not updated to include the
spatial reference system identifier. Fixed by increasing with 4
bytes.
- The storage length of the spatial columns was not accounting for
the length that is prepended to it. Fixed by treating the
spatial data columns as blobs (and thus increasing the storage
length)
- When creating the key image for comparison in index read wrong
key image was created (the one needed for and r-tree search,
not the one for b-tree/other search). Fixed by treating the
spatial data columns as blobs (and creating the correct kind of
image based on the index type).
Faster thr_alarm()
Added 'Opened_files' status variable to track calls to my_open()
Don't give warnings when running mysql_install_db
Added option --source-install to mysql_install_db
I had to do the following renames() as used polymorphism didn't work with Forte compiler on 64 bit systems
index_read() -> index_read_map()
index_read_idx() -> index_read_idx_map()
index_read_last() -> index_read_last_map()
When DROP TABLE detects that it has been killed
by another thread it must unlock the table names
it locked.
Fixed by backporting the 5.1 error handling code.
Bug #27417 thd->no_trans_update.stmt lost value inside of SF-exec-stack
Once had been set the flag might later got reset inside of a stored routine
execution stack.
The reason was in that there was no check if a new statement started at time
of resetting.
The artifact affects most of binlogable DML queries. Notice, that multi-update
is wrapped up within
bug@27716 fix, multi-delete bug@29136.
Fixed with saving parent's statement flag of whether the statement modified
non-transactional table, and unioning (merging) the value with that was gained
in mysql_execute_command.
Resettling thd->no_trans_update members into thd->transaction.`member`;
Asserting code;
Effectively the following properties are held.
1. At the end of a substatement thd->transaction.stmt.modified_non_trans_table
reflects the fact if such a table got modified by the substatement.
That also respects THD::really_abort_on_warnin() requirements.
2. Eventually thd->transaction.stmt.modified_non_trans_table will be computed as
the union of the values of all invoked sub-statements.
That fixes this bug#27417;
Computing of thd->transaction.all.modified_non_trans_table is refined to base to
the stmt's value for all the case including insert .. select statement which
before the patch had an extra issue bug@28960.
Minor issues are covered with mysql_load, mysql_delete, and binloggin of insert in
to temp_table select.
The supplied test verifies limitely, mostly asserts. The ultimate testing is defered
for bug@13270, bug@23333.

Some trivial function and struct variable renames to avoid merge errors.
Fixed compiler warnings
Initialization of some time variables on windows moved to my_init()
between perm and temp tables. Review fixes.
The original bug report complains that if we locked a temporary table
with LOCK TABLES statement, we would not leave LOCK TABLES mode
when this temporary table is dropped.
Additionally, the bug was escalated when it was discovered than
when a temporary transactional table that was previously
locked with LOCK TABLES statement was dropped, futher actions with
this table, such as UNLOCK TABLES, would lead to a crash.
The problem originates from incomplete support of transactional temporary
tables. When we added calls to handler::store_lock()/handler::external_lock()
to operations that work with such tables, we only covered the normal
server code flow and did not cover LOCK TABLES mode.
In LOCK TABLES mode, ::external_lock(LOCK) would sometimes be called without
matching ::external_lock(UNLOCK), e.g. when a transactional temporary table
was dropped. Additionally, this table would be left in the list of LOCKed
TABLES.
The patch aims to address this inadequacy. Now, whenever an instance
of 'handler' is destroyed, we assert that it was priorly
external_lock(UNLOCK)-ed. All the places that violate this assert
were fixed.
This patch introduces no changes in behavior -- the discrepancy in
behavior will be fixed when we start calling ::store_lock()/::external_lock()
for all tables, regardless whether they are transactional or not,
temporary or not.
Bug#25422 (Hang with log tables)
Bug 17876 (Truncating mysql.slow_log in a SP after using cursor locks the
thread)
Bug 23044 (Warnings on flush of a log table)
Bug 29129 (Resetting general_log while the GLOBAL READ LOCK is set causes
a deadlock)
Prior to this fix, the server would hang when performing concurrent
ALTER TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE statements against the LOG TABLES,
which are mysql.general_log and mysql.slow_log.
The root cause traces to the following code:
in sql_base.cc, open_table()
if (table->in_use != thd)
{
/* wait_for_condition will unlock LOCK_open for us */
wait_for_condition(thd, &LOCK_open, &COND_refresh);
}
The problem with this code is that the current implementation of the
LOGGER creates 'fake' THD objects, like
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::general_log_thd
- Log_to_csv_event_handler::slow_log_thd
which are not associated to a real thread running in the server,
so that waiting for these non-existing threads to release table locks
cause the dead lock.
In general, the design of Log_to_csv_event_handler does not fit into the
general architecture of the server, so that the concept of general_log_thd
and slow_log_thd has to be abandoned:
- this implementation does not work with table locking
- it will not work with commands like SHOW PROCESSLIST
- having the log tables always opened does not integrate well with DDL
operations / FLUSH TABLES / SET GLOBAL READ_ONLY
With this patch, the fundamental design of the LOGGER has been changed to:
- always open and close a log table when writing a log
- remove totally the usage of fake THD objects
- clarify how locking of log tables is implemented in general.
See WL#3984 for details related to the new locking design.
Additional changes (misc bugs exposed and fixed):
1)
mysqldump which would ignore some tables in dump_all_tables_in_db(),
but forget to ignore the same in dump_all_views_in_db().
2)
mysqldump would also issue an empty "LOCK TABLE" command when all the tables
to lock are to be ignored (numrows == 0), instead of not issuing the query.
3)
Internal errors handlers could intercept errors but not warnings
(see sql_error.cc).
4)
Implementing a nested call to open tables, for the performance schema tables,
exposed an existing bug in remove_table_from_cache(), which would perform:
in_use->some_tables_deleted=1;
against another thread, without any consideration about thread locking.
This call inside remove_table_from_cache() was not required anyway,
since calling mysql_lock_abort() takes care of aborting -- cleanly -- threads
that might hold a lock on a table.
This line (in_use->some_tables_deleted=1) has been removed.
Problem: trying to repair an old (e.g. with "old" varstring fields) corrupted
table with use_frm option we don't actually repair the table, just altering it
which may couse data loss.
Fix: if use_frm repair option is set, do repair instead of altering even
if the table needs upgrade.
