CHAR(n) in ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT tables is always fixed-length
(n*mbmaxlen bytes), but in the temporary file it is variable-length
(n*mbminlen to n*mbmaxlen bytes) for variable-length character sets,
such as UTF-8.
The temporary file format used during index creation and online ALTER
TABLE is based on ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT. Thus, it should use the
variable-length encoding even if the base table is in
ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDNAT.
dtype_get_fixed_size_low(): Replace an assertion-like check with a

rec_init_offsets_temp(), rec_convert_dtuple_to_temp(): New functions,
for operating on temporary file records.

btr_lift_page_up() writes wrong page number (different by -1) for upper than father page.
But in almost all of the cases, the father page should be root page, no upper
pages. It is very rare path.
In addition the leaf page should not be lifted unless the father page is root.
Because the branch pages should not become the leaf pages.

When a new primary key is added to an InnoDB table, then the following
steps are taken by InnoDB plugin:
. let t1 be the original table.
. a temporary table t1@00231 will be created by cloning t1.
. all data will be copied from t1 to t1@00231.
. rename t1 to t1@00232.
. rename t1@00231 to t1.
. drop t1@00232.
The rename and drop operations involve file operations. But file operations
cannot be rolled back. So in row_merge_rename_tables(), just after doing data
dictionary update and before doing any file operations, generate redo logs
for file operations and commit the transaction. This will ensure that any
crash after this commit, the table is still recoverable by moving .ibd and
.frm files. Manual recovery is required.
During recovery, the rename file operation redo logs are processed.
Previously this was being ignored.

TABLE DATA IF DUMPS MYSQL DATABA
Problem: If mysqldump is run without --events (or with --skip-events)
it will not dump the mysql.event table's data. This behaviour is inconsistent
with that of --routines option, which does not affect the dumping of
mysql.proc table. According to the Manual, --events (--skip-events) defines,
if the Event Scheduler events for the dumped databases should be included
in the mysqldump output and this has nothing to do with the mysql.event table
itself.
Solution: A warning has been added when mysqldump is used without --events
(or with --skip-events) and a separate patch with the behavioral change
will be prepared for 5.6/trunk.
Analysis
---------
my_stat() calls stat() and if the stat() call fails we try to set
the variable my_errno which is actually a thread specific data .
We try to get the address of this thread specific data using
my_pthread_getspecifc(),but for the purge thread we have not defined
any thread specific data so it returns null and when dereferencing
null we get a segmentation fault.
init_available_charsets() seen in the core stack is invoked
through pthread_once() .pthread_once is used for one time
initialization.Since free_charsets() is called before innodb plugin
shutdown ,purge thread calls init_avaliable_charsets() which leads
to the crash.
Fix
---
Call free_charsets() after the innodb plugin shutdown,since purge
threads are still using the charsets.
Brief description: After insert some rows to MEMORY table with HASH key some
rows can't be deleted in one step.
Problem Analysis/solution: info->current_ptr will have the information about the
current hash pointer from where we can traverse to the list to get all the
remaining tuples.
In hp_delete_key we are updating info->current_ptr with the last_pos based on
the flag parameter(which is the keydef and last index are same). As part of the
fix we are making it to zero only when the code flow reaches to the end of the
function hp_delete_key() it means that the next record which has to get deleted
will be at the starting of the list so, that in the next call to
read record(heap_rnext()) will take line number 100 path instead of 102 path,
please see the below code in file hp_rnext.c, function heap_rnext().
99 else if (!info->current_ptr) /* Deleted or first call */
100 pos= hp_search(info, keyinfo, info->lastkey, 0);
101 else
102 pos= hp_search(info, keyinfo, info->lastkey, 1);
with that change the hp_search() will update the info->current_ptr with the
record which needs to be deleted.
PROBLEM
-------
optimize on partiton will recreate the whole table
instead of just partition.
ANALYSIS
--------
At present innodb doesn't support optimize option ,so we do a rebuild of the
whole table and then call analyze() on the table.Presently for any optimize()
option (on table or partition) we display the following info to the user
"Table does not support optimize, doing recreate + analyze instead".
FIX
---
It was decided for GA versions(5.1 and 5.5) whenever the user tries to
optimize a partition(s) we will will display the following info the user
"Table does not support optimize on partitions.
All partitions will be rebuilt and analyzed."
Earlier partitions were not analyzed.Now all partitions will be analyzed.
If the user wants to optimize the whole table ,we will display the
previous info to the user. i.e
"Table does not support optimize, doing recreate + analyze instead"
For 5.6+ versions we will raise a new bug to support optimize() options
in innodb.
TO 'MYISAM_SORT_BUFFER_SIZE'
Problem: 'myisam_sort_buffer_size' is a parameter used by
mysqld program only whereas 'sort_buffer_size' is used by
mysqld and myisamchk programs. But the error message printed
when myisamchk program is run with insufficient buffer size
is myisam_sort_buffer_size is too small which may mislead to the
server parameter myisam_sort_buffer_size.
SOLUTION: A parameter 'myisam_sort_buffer_size' is added as an
alias for 'sort_buffer_size' and the 'sort_buffer_size' parameter
is marked as deprecated. So myisamchk also has both the parameters
with the same role.
main.mysqlbinlog_row_innodb are skipped by mtr
=== Problem ===
The following tests are wrongly placed in main suite and as a
result these are not run with proper binlog format combinations.
Some are always skipped by mtr.
1) mysqlbinlog_row_myisam
2) mysqlbinlog_row_innodb
3) mysqlbinlog_row.test
4) mysqlbinlog_row_trans.test
5) mysqlbinlog-cp932
6) mysqlbinlog2
7) mysqlbinlog_base64
=== Background ===
mtr runs the tests placed in main suite with binlog format=stmt.
Those that need to be tested against binlog format=row or mixed
or more than one binlog format and require only one mysql server
are placed in binlog suite. mtr runs tests in binlog suite with
all three binlog formats(stmt,row and mixed).
=== Fix ===
1) Moved the test listed in problem section above to binlog suite.
2) Added prefix "binlog_" to the name of each test case moved.
Renamed the coresponding result files and option files accordingly.
IN ALTER TABLE ... ADD UNIQUE KEY
A bogus debug assertion failure occurred when reporting a duplicate
key on a column prefix of a CHAR column.
This is a regression from Bug#14729221 IN-PLACE ALTER TABLE REPORTS ''
INSTEAD OF REAL DUPLICATE VALUE FOR PREFIX KEYS. The assertion is only
present when UNIV_DEBUG is defined (which it is in debug builds
starting from MySQL 5.5). It is a case of overasserting.

Problem:-
When we execute a query which has subquery with GROUP BY, ORDER BY and have a
BLOB column,results a memory leak.
Analysis:-
In case of subquery, which have GROUP BY on BLOB and a ORDER BY on other field
and BLOB is not a key. We allocate a tmp buffer to copy_field to take care of
BLOB value.This copy_field value can have copies of its in two join(objects),
so while freeing this copy_field we have to take care that it is
not deleted twice.
The double deletion of tmp_table_param.copy_field is handled by two patches.
One by Kostja :
revid:sp1r-konstantin@mysql.com-20050627101056-55153
Fix the broken test suite in -debug build.
and other by Oleksandr
revid:sp1r-bell@sanja.is.com.ua-20060118114857-19905
Excluded posibility of tmp_table_param.copy_field double deletion (BUG#14851).
both of this patches are commited in different branch and while
merging they both get placed,but there is no need for Kostja patch as Oleksandr
patch handle this.

Problem:-
using last_insert_id() on an auto_incremented bigint unsigned does
not work for values which are greater than max-bigint-signed.
Analysis:-
last_insert_id() returns the first auto_incremented value for a column
and an auto_incremented value can have only positive values.
In our code, when we are initializing a last_insert_id object, we are
taking it as a signed BIGINT, So when the auto_incremented value reaches
greater than max signed bigint, last_insert_id gives negative result.
Solution:
When we are fetching the value from last_insert_id, We are setting the
unsigned_flag, so that it take only unsigned BIGINT value.

SECONDARY INDEX UPDATES MAKE CONSISTENT READS DO O(N^2) UNDO PAGE
LOOKUPS (honoring kill query while accessing sec_index)
If secondary index is being used for select query evaluation and this
query is operating with consistent read snapshot it might take good time for
secondary index to return back control to mysql as MVCC would kick in.
If user issues "kill query <id>" while query is actively accessing
secondary index it will not be honored as there is no hook to check
for this condition. Added hook for this check.
-----
Parallely secondary index taking too long to evaluate for consistent
read snapshot case is being examined for performance improvement. WL#6540.
This bug had two problems:
P1) Reads out of bounds;
P2) Writes out of bounds.
PROBLEM P1
----------
User_var_log_event unmarshalling from binlog was not performing range
checks when using name_len and val_len variables to walk on event
buffer.
Added range checks to User_var_log_event unmarshalling to prevent
unmarshalling errors.
PROBLEM P2
----------
User_var_log_event value was allocated on thread stack, what caused
stack frame errors when User_var_log_event value was bigger than thread
stack size.
Currently value is allocated on heap memory.
The problem is in the error handling in row_create_table_for_mysql().
In the 'disk full' case we may forget to call dict_mem_table_free() on
the table object.

n_child_sum_items kept increasing.

The memory is free()d at disconnect, but is most likely *not*
returned to the operating system.
TRANSACTION ROLLBACK
Description: During the rollback operation, a blob page
is removed earlier than desired. Consider following scenario:
1. create table t1(a int primary key,b blob) engine=innodb;
2. insert into t1 values (1,repeat('b',9000));
3. begin;
4. update t1 set b=concat(b,'b');
5. update t1 set a=a+1;
6. insert into t1 values (1,repeat('b',9000));
7. rollback;
The update operation in line 5 produces 2 undo log record. The first
undo record (TRX_UNDO_DEL_MARK_REC) goes to trx->update_undo and the
second undo record (TRX_UNDO_INSERT_REC) goes to trx->insert_undo.
During rollback, they are executed out of order.
When the undo record TRX_UNDO_DEL_MARK_REC is applied/executed,
the blob ownership is also reset. Because of this the blob page
is released earlier than desired. This blob page must have been
freed only as part of applying/executing the undo record
TRX_UNDO_INSERT_REC.
This problem can be avoided by executing the undo records in
order. This patch will make innodb to execute the undo records
in order.

I noticed other tests are skipped because of no ucs2

Should main.loaddata be skipped if there is no ucs2
How To Repeat:

Run make test on compiled source that doesn't have ucs2
Suggested fix:
-------------
the failing piece of the test should be moved from mysql-test/t/loaddata.test to
mysql-test/t/ctype_ucs.test.
When a client connects to a MySQL server, first a THD object is created.
If there are any idle server threads waiting, the THD object is then added
to a list and a server thread is woken up. This thread then retrieves the
THD object from the list and starts executing.
The problem was that this list of THD objects waiting for a server thread,
was not working in a FIFO fashion, but rather LIFO. This is unfair, as it means
that the last THD added (=last client connected) will be assigned a server
thread first.
Note however that for this to be a problem, several clients must be able
to connect and have THD objects constructed before any server threads
manages to be woken up. This is not a very likely scenario.
This patch fixes the problem by changing the THD list to work FIFO
rather than LIFO.
This is the 5.1/5.5 version of the patch.
BACKGROUND:
In certain situations DROP USER fails to remove all privileges
belonging to user being dropped from in-memory structures.
Current workaround is to do DROP USER twice in scenario below
OR doing FLUSH PRIVILEGES after doing DROP USER.
ANALYSIS:
In MySQL, When we grant some stored routines privileges to a
user they are stored in their respective hash.
When doing DROP USER all the stored routine privilege entries
associated with that user has to be deleted from its respective
hash.
The root cause for this bug is some entries from the hash
are not getting deleted.
The problem is that code that deletes entries from the hash tries
to do so while iterating over it, without taking enough measures
to address the fact that such deletion can reshuffle elements in
the hash. If the user/administrator creates the same user again
he is thrown an error 'Error 1396 ER_CANNOT_USER' from MySQL.
This prompts the user to either do FLUSH PRIVILEGES or do DROP USER
again. This behaviour is not desirable as it is a workaround and
does not solves the problem mentioned above.
FIX:
This bug is fixed by introducing a dynamic array to store the
pointersto all stored routine privilege objects that either have
to be deleted or updated. This is done in 3 steps.
Step 1: Fetching the element from the hash and checking whether
it is to be deleted or updated.
Step 2: Storing the pointer to that privilege object in dynamic array.
Step 3: Traversing the dynamic array to perform the appropriate action
either delete or update.
This is a much cleaner way to delete or update the privilege entries
associated with some user and solves the problem mentioned above.
Also the code has been refactored a bit by introducing an enum
instead of hard coded numbers used for respective dynamic arrays
and hashes in handle_grant_struct() function.
QUOTING IN REPLICATION
Problem: Misquoting or unquoted identifiers may lead to
incorrect statements to be logged to the binary log.
Fix: we use specialized functions to append quoted identifiers in
the statements generated by the server.
WHEN DBNAME CONTAINS MULTIPLE QUOTES
MySQL client's USE command might fail if the
database name contains multiple quotes (backticks).
The reason behind the failure being the method
that client uses to remove/escape the quotes
while parsing the USE command's option (dbname),
where the option parsing might terminate if a
matching quote is found.
Also, C-APIs like mysql_select_db() expect a
normalized dbname. Now, in certain cases, client
might fail to normalize dbname similar to that of
server and hence mysql_select_db() would fail.
Fixed by getting the normalized dbname (indirectly)
from the server by directly sending the "USE dbanme"
as query to the server followed by a "SELECT DATABASE()".
The above steps are only performed if number of quotes
in the dbname is greater than 2. Once the normalized
dbname is received, the original db is restored.
