Problem was for LINEAR HASH/KEY. Crashes because of wrong partition id
returned when creating the new altered partitions. (because of wrong
linear hash mask)
Solution: Update the linear hash mask before using it for the new
altered table.
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
the lexer API which internally uses unsigned char variables to
address its state map. The implementation of the lexer should be
internal to the lexer, and not influence the rest of the code.
creation of the partitioned table could fail as we created Item-s for
it's list function in thd->mem_root, and then do Item->fix_fields
in the context of other table->mem_root (so that memory alloced
there was alloced in this table->mem_root). As we freed the
table->mem_root before we do thd->free_items, our Item-s had
pointers to the freed memory, that caused the crash
this key does not stop" (5.1 version).
UPDATE statement which WHERE clause used key and which invoked trigger
that modified field in this key worked indefinetely.
This problem occured because in cases when UPDATE statement was
executed in update-on-the-fly mode (in which row is updated right
during evaluation of select for WHERE clause) the new version of
the row became visible to select representing WHERE clause and was
updated again and again.
We already solve this problem for UPDATE statements which does not
invoke triggers by detecting the fact that we are going to update
field in key used for scanning and performing update in two steps,
during the first step we gather information about the rows to be
updated and then doing actual updates. We also do this for
MULTI-UPDATE and in its case we even detect situation when such
fields are updated in triggers (actually we simply assume that
we always update fields used in key if we have before update
trigger).
The fix simply extends this check which is done with help of
check_if_key_used()/QUICK_SELECT_I::check_if_keys_used()
routine/method in such way that it also detects cases when
field used in key is updated in trigger. We do this by
changing check_if_key_used() to take field bitmap instead
field list as argument and passing TABLE::write_set
to it (we also have to add info about fields used in
triggers to this bitmap a bit earlier).
As nice side-effect we have more precise and thus more optimal
perfomance-wise check for the MULTI-UPDATE.
Also check_if_key_used() routine and similar method were renamed
to is_key_used()/is_keys_used() in order to better reflect that
it is simple boolean predicate.
Finally, partition_key_modified() routine now also takes field
bitmap instead of field list as argument.
* Produce right results for conditions that were transformed to "(partitioning_range) AND
(list_of_subpartitioning_ranges)": make each partition id set iterator auto-reset itself
after it has returned all partition ids in the sequence
* Fix "Range mapping" and "Range mapping" partitioning interval analysis functions to
correctly deal with NULL values.
Also, moved some of the code out of handler.h and into partition specific files for better
separation.
Also, moved some of the C funcs into partition_info as formal C++ methods
