Analysis
========
CREATE TABLE of InnoDB table with a partition name
which exceeds the path limit can cause the server
to exit.
During the preparation of the partition name,
there was no check to identify whether the complete
path name for partition exceeds the max supported
path length, causing the server to exit during
subsequent processing.
Fix
===
During the preparation of partition name, check and report
an error if the partition path name exceeds the maximum path
name limit.
This is a 5.5 patch.
Don't write to a temporary file, use String.
Remove strange one-liner "helpers", use String methods.
Don't use current_thd, don't allocate memory for 1-byte strings, etc.
Benefits of this patch:
- Removed a lot of calls to strlen(), especially for field_string
- Strings generated by parser are now const strings, less chance of
accidently changing a string
- Removed a lot of calls with LEX_STRING as parameter (changed to pointer)
- More uniform code
- Item::name_length was not kept up to date. Now fixed
- Several bugs found and fixed (Access to null pointers,
access of freed memory, wrong arguments to printf like functions)
- Removed a lot of casts from (const char*) to (char*)
Changes:
- This caused some ABI changes
- lex_string_set now uses LEX_CSTRING
- Some fucntions are now taking const char* instead of char*
- Create_field::change and after changed to LEX_CSTRING
- handler::connect_string, comment and engine_name() changed to LEX_CSTRING
- Checked printf() related calls to find bugs. Found and fixed several
errors in old code.
- A lot of changes from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING, especially related to
parsing and events.
- Some changes from LEX_STRING and LEX_STRING & to LEX_CSTRING*
- Some changes for char* to const char*
- Added printf argument checking for my_snprintf()
- Introduced null_clex_str, star_clex_string, temp_lex_str to simplify
code
- Added item_empty_name and item_used_name to be able to distingush between
items that was given an empty name and items that was not given a name
This is used in sql_yacc.yy to know when to give an item a name.
- select table_name."*' is not anymore same as table_name.*
- removed not used function Item::rename()
- Added comparision of item->name_length before some calls to
my_strcasecmp() to speed up comparison
- Moved Item_sp_variable::make_field() from item.h to item.cc
- Some minimal code changes to avoid copying to const char *
- Fixed wrong error message in wsrep_mysql_parse()
- Fixed wrong code in find_field_in_natural_join() where real_item() was
set when it shouldn't
- ER_ERROR_ON_RENAME was used with extra arguments.
- Removed some (wrong) ER_OUTOFMEMORY, as alloc_root will already
give the error.
TODO:
- Check possible unsafe casts in plugin/auth_examples/qa_auth_interface.c
- Change code to not modify LEX_CSTRING for database name
(as part of lower_case_table_names)
This was done to make it clear that a update_row() should not change the
row.
This was not done for handler::write_row() as this function still needs
to update auto_increment values in the row. This should at some point
be moved to handler::ha_write_row() after which write_row can also have
const arguments.
The following left in semi-improved state to keep patch size reasonable:
- Field operator new: left thd_alloc(current_thd)
- Sql_alloc operator new: left thd_alloc(thd_get_current_thd())
- Item_args constructors: left thd_alloc(thd)
- Item_func_interval::fix_length_and_dec(): no THD arg, have to call current_thd
- Item_func_dyncol_exists::val_int(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_str(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_int(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_real(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_decimal(): same
- Item_singlerow_subselect::fix_length_and_dec(): same

Bug#14521864: MYSQL 5.1 TO 5.5 BUGS PARTITIONING
Bug#16589511: MYSQL_UPGRADE FAILS TO WRITE OUT ENTIRE ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM= ... STATEMENT
Bug#16274455: CAN NOT ACESS PARTITIONED TABLES WHEN DOWNGRADED FROM 5.6.11 TO 5.6.10
plus minor changes from 5.6, mainly comments
includes:
* remove some remnants of "Bug#14521864: MYSQL 5.1 TO 5.5 BUGS PARTITIONING"
* introduce LOCK_share, now LOCK_ha_data is strictly for engines
* rea_create_table() always creates .par file (even in "frm-only" mode)
* fix a 5.6 bug, temp file leak on dummy ALTER TABLE
DOWNGRADED FROM 5.6.11 TO 5.6.10
Problem was new syntax not accepted by previous version.
Fixed by adding version comment of /*!50531 around the
new syntax.
Like this in the .frm file:
'PARTITION BY KEY /*!50611 ALGORITHM = 2 */ () PARTITIONS 3'
and also changing the output from SHOW CREATE TABLE to:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT)
/*!50100 PARTITION BY KEY */ /*!50611 ALGORITHM = 1 */ /*!50100 ()
PARTITIONS 3 */
It will always add the ALGORITHM into the .frm for KEY [sub]partitioned
tables, but for SHOW CREATE TABLE it will only add it in case it is the non
default ALGORITHM = 1.
Also notice that for 5.5, it will say /*!50531 instead of /*!50611, which
will make upgrade from 5.5 > 5.5.31 to 5.6 < 5.6.11 fail!
If one downgrades an fixed version to the same major version (5.5 or 5.6) the
bug 14521864 will be visible again, but unless the .frm is updated, it will
work again when upgrading again.
Also fixed so that the .frm does not get updated version
if a single partition check passes.

ALTER TABLE AFTER DROP PARTITION
Bug#13608188 - 64038: CRASH IN HANDLER::HA_THD ON ALTER TABLE AFTER
REPAIR NON-EXISTING PARTITION
Backport of bug#13357766 from -trunk to -5.5.
The state of some partitions was not reset on failure, leading
to invalid states of partitions in consequent statements.
Fixed by reverting back to original state for all partitions
if not all partition names was resolved.
Also adding extra security by forcing tables to be reopened
in case of error in mysql_alter_table.
(There is also removal of \r at the end of some lines.)

REBUILD PARTITION under LOCK TABLE
Collapsed patch including updates from the reviews.
In case of failure in ALTER ... PARTITION under LOCK TABLE
the server could crash, due to it had modified the locked
table object, which was not reverted in case of failure,
resulting in a bad table definition used after the failed
command.
Solved by instead of altering the locked table object and
its partition_info struct, creating an internal temporary
intermediate table object used for altering,
just like the non partitioned mysql_alter_table.
So if an error occur before the alter operation is complete,
the original table is not modified at all.
But if the alter operation have succeeded so far that it
must be completed as whole,
the table is properly closed and reopened.
(The completion on failure is done by the ddl_log.)

sql/sql_partition.cc:
Added TODO, to use DBUG_SUICIDE() instead of abort()
to avoid core-files on expected crashes.
Removed unused arguments to fast_end_partition.
Opening a intermediate table in prep_alter_part_table, instead of altering
(a possible locked) normally opened table.
That way we do not have to do anything more than close
the intermediate table on error,
leaving the ordinary table opened and locked.
Also making sure that the intermediate table are
closed/destroyed on failure. If no error occur
it is later destroyed in the end of fast_alter_partition_table.
Added ha_external_lock to make sure MyISAM flushed the index file
after copying the partitions.
This also leads to removal of the special close and removal from
the table cache for other instances of the table.
sql/sql_partition.h:
Changed the arguments for prep_alter_part_table and
fast_alter_partition_table to use an intermediate table
instead of altering a (possibly locked) normal table.

Using an intermediate table created in prep_alter_part_table

/*![:version:] Query Code */, where [:version:] is a sequence of 5
digits representing the mysql server version(e.g /*!50200 ... */),
is a special comment that the query in it can be executed on those
servers whose versions are larger than the version appearing in the
comment. It leads to a security issue when slave's version is larger
than master's. A malicious user can improve his privileges on slaves.
Because slave SQL thread is running with SUPER privileges, so it can
execute queries that he/she does not have privileges on master.
This bug is fixed with the logic below:
- To replace '!' with ' ' in the magic comments which are not applied on
master. So they become common comments and will not be applied on slave.
- Example:
'INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1) /*!10000, (2)*/ /*!99999 ,(3)*/
will be binlogged as
'INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1) /*!10000, (2)*/ /* 99999 ,(3)*/
