The mysql_alter_table() was able to rename only a table.
The view/table renaming code is moved from the function rename_tables
to the new function called do_rename().
The mysql_alter_table() function calls it when it needs to rename a view.
The Cached_item_decimal::cmp() method wasn't checking for null pointer
returned from the val_decimal() of the item being cached.
This leads to server crash.
The Cached_item_decimal::cmp() method now check for null values.
Currently SQL_BIG_RESULT is checked only at compile time.
However, additional optimizations may take place after
this check that change the sort method from 'filesort'
to sorting via index. As a result the actual plan
executed is not the one specified by the SQL_BIG_RESULT
hint. Similarly, there is no such test when executing
EXPLAIN, resulting in incorrect output.
The patch corrects the problem by testing for
SQL_BIG_RESULT both during the explain and execution
phases.
After the patch for big 21698 equality propagation stopped
working for BETWEEN and IN predicates with STRING arguments.
This changeset completes the solution of the above patch.
RTree keys are really different from BTree and need specific
paramters to be set by optimizer to work.
Sometimes optimizer doesn't set those properly.
Here we decided just to add code to check that the parameters
are correct. Hope to fix optimizer sometimes.
We use the condition from CHECK OPTION twice handling UPDATE command.
First we construnct 'update_cond' AND 'option_cond'
condition to select records to be updated, then we check the
'option_cond' for the updated row.
The problem is that first 'AND' condition is optimized during the 'select'
which can break 'option_cond' structure, so it will be unusable for
the sectond use - to check the updated row.
Possible soultion is either use copy of the condition in the first
use or to make optimization less traumatic for the operands.
I picked the first one.
On an INSERT into an updatable but non-insertable view an error message was
issued stating the view being not updatable. This can lead to a confusion of a
user.
A new error message is introduced. Is is showed when a user tries to insert
into a non-insertable view.
while space allocation
Under some circumstances DISTINCT clause can be converted to grouping.
In such cases grouping is performed by all items in the select list.
If an ORDER clause is present then items from it is prepended to group list.
But the case with ORDER wasn't taken into account when allocating the
array for sum functions. This leads to memory corruption and crash.
The JOIN::alloc_func_list() function now allocates additional space if there
is an ORDER by clause is specified and DISTINCT -> GROUP BY optimization is
possible.
Presence of a subquery in the ON expression of a join
should not block merging the view that contains this join.
Before this patch the such views were converted into
into temporary table views.
an ALL/ANY quantified subquery in HAVING.
The Item::split_sum_func2 method should not create Item_ref
for objects of any class derived from Item_subselect.
Any default value for a enum fields over UCS2 charsets was corrupted
when we put it into the frm file, as it had been overwritten by its
HEX representation.
To fix it now we save a copy of structure that represents the enum
type and when putting the default values we use this copy.
that returns the results of aggregation by GROUP_CONCAT.
The crash was due to an overflow happened for the field
sortoder->length.
The fix prevents this overflow exploiting the fact that the
value of sortoder->length cannot be greater than the value of
thd->variables.max_sort_length.
