Bug#21413
"Engine table handler used by multiple threads in REPLACE DELAYED"
When executing a REPLACE DELAYED statement, the storage engine
::extra() method was invoked by a different thread than the thread
which has acquired the handler instance.
This did not cause problems within the current server and with
the current storage engines.
But it has the potential to confuse future storage engines.
Added code to avoid surplus calls to extra() method in case of DELAYED
which avoids calling storage engine from a different thread than
expected.
No test case.
This change does not change behavior in conjunction with current
storage engines. So it cannot be tested by the regression test suite.
View definition as SELECT ... FROM DUAL WHERE ... has
valid syntax, but use of such view in SELECT or
SHOW CREATE VIEW syntax causes unexpected syntax error.
Server omits FROM DUAL clause when storing view body
string in a .frm file for further evaluation.
However, syntax of SELECT-witout-FROM query is more
restrictive than SELECT FROM DUAL syntax, and doesn't
allow the WHERE clause.
NOTE: this syntax difference is not documented.
View registration procedure has been modified to
preserve original structure of view's body.
The bug is a regression introduced in 5.1 by the patch for bug28404.
Under some circumstances test_if_skip_sort_order() could leave some
data structures in an inconsistent state so that some parts of code
could assume the selected execution strategy for GROUP BY/DISTINCT as
a loose index scan (e.g. JOIN_TAB::is_using_loose_index_scan()), while
the actual strategy chosen was an ordered index scan, which led to
wrong data being returned.
Fixed test_if_skip_sort_order() so that when changing the type for a
join table, select->quick is reset not only for EXPLAIN, but for the
actual join execution as well, to not confuse code that depends on its
value to determine the chosen GROUP BY/DISTINCT strategy.
The server used to trust blindly information from the client about
its capabilities. During the connection handshake the server sends
information about what it supports and then the client sends back a
set of capabilities which cover all of the server's or less.
Before this changeset the server didn't check whether the flags sent
by the client were valid for the server. For example, if the server
doesn't support compressed protocol but the client does and sends that
bit turned on, the server didn't check it. The change make the server code
less error prone to problems related to the value of THD::client_capabilities.
Clearly there is no vulnerability being fixed but this is a maintainenance
fix to prevent misusage in the future.
localhost/default port
When creating federated table that points to unspecified host or
localhost on unspecified port or port is 0, small memory leak occurs.
This happens because we make a copy of unix socket path, which is
never freed.
With this fix we do not make a copy of unix socket path, instead
share->socket points to MYSQL_UNIX_ADDR constant directly.
This fix is covered by a test case for BUG34788.
Affects 5.0 only.
for YEAR data type.
The problem was that for some unknown reason 0 was not allowed
as a default value for YEAR data type. That was coded before BK.
However the Manual does not say a word about such a limitation.
Also, it looks inconsistent with other data types.
The fix is to allow 0 as a default value.
Fixed the parser to reject SQLSTATE '00000',
since '00000' is the successful completion condition,
and can not be caught by an exception handler in SQL.
The bool data type was redefined to BOOL (4 bytes on windows).
Removed the #define and fixed some of the warnings that were uncovered
by this.
Note that the fix also disables 2 warnings :
4800 : 'type' : forcing value to bool 'true' or 'false' (performance warning)
4805: 'operation' : unsafe mix of type 'type' and type 'type' in operation
These warnings will be handled in a separate bug, as they are performance related or bogus.
Fixed to int the return type of functions that return more than
2 distinct values.
correctly - crashes server !
Creating federated table with connect string containing empty
(zero-length) host name and port is evaluated as 0 (port is
incorrect, omitted or 0) crashes server.
This happens because federated calls strcmp() with NULL pointer.
Fixed by avoiding strcmp() call if hostname is set to NULL.
