Fulltext boolean mode phrase search may crash server on platforms
where size of pointer is not equal to size of unsigned integer
(in other words some 64-bit platforms).
The problem was integer overflow.
Affects 4.1 only.
Disabling and enabling indexes on a non-empty table grows the
index file.
Disabling indexes just sets a flag per non-unique index and does not
free the index blocks of the affected indexes. Re-enabling indexes
creates new indexes with new blocks. The old blocks remain unused
in the index file.
Fixed by dropping and re-creating all indexes if non-empty disabled
indexes exist when enabling indexes. Dropping all indexes resets
the internal end-of-file marker to the end of the index file header.
It also clears the root block pointers of every index and clears the
deleted blocks chains. This way all blocks are declared as free.
ucs2 doesn't provide required by fulltext ctype array. Crash
happens because fulltext attempts to use unitialized ctype
array.
Fixed by converting ucs2 fields to compatible utf8 analogue.
causes the Server to crash.
Accessing partitioned table with an apostrophe in partition options
like DATA DIRECTORY, INDEX DIRECTORY or COMMENT causes server crash.
Partition options were saved in .frm file without escaping.
When accessing such table it is not possible to properly restore
partition information.
Crashed because there was no check for partition info parser failure.
Fixed by escaping quoted text in the partition info when writing it to
the frm-file and added a check that it was able to parse the partition
info before using it
NOTE: If the comment is written by an earlier version of the server,
the corrupted frm-file is not fixed, but left corrupted, you have to
manually drop the table and recreate it.
Inserting Data.
The problem was that under some circumstances Field class was not
properly initialized before calling create_length_to_internal_length()
function, which led to assert failure.
The fix is to do the proper initialization.
The user-visible problem was that under some circumstances
CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement crashed the server or led
to wrong error message (wrong results).
- Fix for
Bug#28827 Partition test needs archive engine
Bug#26669 Two tests on partition fail while blackhole engine is missing
Solution: Move ARCHIVE and BLACKHOLE sub test cases to their own main test.
- The two bugs above + the fact that CSV could be also sometimes not
available --> Move also CSV sub tests out.
- Minor cleanups
- Replace error numbers with error names
- fix typos, wrong comments
- remove redundant sub test cases
- add missing drop database
- SET GLOBAL general_log = default is wrong, = 1 is correct
When doing indexed search the server constructs a key image for
faster comparison to the stored keys. While doing that it must not
perform (and stop if they fail) the additional date checks that can
be turned on by the SQL mode because there already may be values in
the table that don't comply with the error checks.
Fixed by ignoring these SQL mode bits while making the key image.
an error, asserts server
In case of a fatal error during filesort in find_all_keys() the error
was returned without the necessary handler uninitialization.
Fixed by changing the code so that handler uninitialization is performed
before returning the error.
Since, as of MySQL 5.0.15, CHAR() arguments larger than 255 are converted into multiple result bytes, a single CHAR() argument can now take up to 4 bytes. This patch fixes Item_func_char::fix_length_and_dec() to take this into account.
This patch also fixes a regression introduced by the patch for bug21513. As now we do not always have the 'name' member of Item set for Item_hex_string and Item_bin_string, an own print() method has been added to Item_hex_string so that it could correctly be printed by Item_func::print_args().
Assertion `table->key_read == 0' failed.
The problem was that key_read on a table in a sub-select was not
properly reset. That happens because the code responsible for that
is copy&pasted all around the server. In some place, it was obviously
forgotten to be pasted.
The fix is to reset key_read properly.
There actually were several problems here:
- WRITE-lock is required to load events from the mysql.event table,
but in the read-only mode an ordinary user can not acquire it;
- Security_context::master_access attribute was not properly
initialized in Security_context::init(), which led to differences
in behavior with and without debug configure options.
- if the server failed to load events from mysql.event, it forgot to
close the mysql.event table, that led to the coredump, described
in the bug report.
The patch is to fix all these problems:
- Use the super-user to acquire WRITE-lock on the mysql.even table;
- The WRITE-lock is acquired by the event scheduler in two cases:
- on initial loading of events from the database;
- when an event has been executed, so its attributes should
be updated.
Other cases when WRITE-lock is needed for the mysql.event table
happen under the user account. So, nothing should be changed there
for the read-only mode. The user is able to create/update/drop
an event only if he is a super-user.
- Initialize Security_context::master_access;
- Close the mysql.event table in case something went wrong.
