if max_allowed_packet >= 16M.
This bug was introduced by patch for bug#42503.
This patch restores behaviour that there was before patch
for bug#42503 was applied.
- Removed files specific to compiling on OS/2
- Removed files specific to SCO Unix packaging
- Removed "libmysqld/copyright", text is included in documentation
- Removed LaTeX headers for NDB Doxygen documentation
- Removed obsolete NDB files
- Removed "mkisofs" binaries
- Removed the "cvs2cl.pl" script
- Changed a few GPL texts to use "program" instead of "library"
compression protocol.
The loss of connection was caused by a malformed packet
sent by the server in case when query cache was in use.
When storing data in the query cache, the query cache
memory allocation algorithm had a tendency to reduce
the amount of memory block necessary to store a result
set, up to finally storing the entire result set in a single
block. With a significant result set, this memory block
could turn out to be quite large - 30, 40 MB and on.
When such a result set was sent to the client, the entire
memory block was compressed and written to network as a
single network packet. However, the length of the
network packet is limited by 0xFFFFFF (16MB), since
the packet format only allows 3 bytes for packet length.
As a result, a malformed, overly large packet
with truncated length would be sent to the client
and break the client/server protocol.
The solution is, when sending result sets from the query
cache, to ensure that the data is chopped into
network packets of size <= 16MB, so that there
is no corruption of packet length. This solution,
however, has a shortcoming: since the result set
is still stored in the query cache as a single block,
at the time of sending, we've lost boundaries of individual
logical packets (one logical packet = one row of the result
set) and thus can end up sending a truncated logical
packet in a compressed network packet.
As a result, on the client we may require more memory than
max_allowed_packet to keep, both, the truncated
last logical packet, and the compressed next packet.
This never (or in practice never) happens without compression,
since without compression it's very unlikely that
a) a truncated logical packet would remain on the client
when it's time to read the next packet
b) a subsequent logical packet that is being read would be
so large that size-of-new-packet + size-of-old-packet-tail >
max_allowed_packet.
To remedy this issue, we send data in 1MB sized packets,
that's below the current client default of 16MB for
max_allowed_packet, but large enough to ensure there is no
unnecessary overhead from too many syscalls per result set.
The server could be tricked to read packets indefinitely if it
received a packet larger than the maximum size of one packet.
This problem is aggravated by the fact that it can be triggered
before authentication.
The solution is to no skip big packets for non-authenticated
sessions. If a big packet is sent before a session is authen-
ticated, a error is returned and the connection is closed.
on LOAD DATA
Two problems :
1. LOAD DATA was not checking for SQL errors and was sending an OK
packet even when there were errors reported already. Fixed to check for
SQL errors in addition to the error conditions already detected.
2. There was an over-ambitious assert() on the server to check if the
protocol is always followed by the client. This can cause crashes on
debug servers by clients not completing the protocol exchange for some
reason (e.g. --send command in mysqltest). Fixed by keeping the assert
only on client side, since the server always completes the protocol
exchange.
compression
Since uint3korr() may read 4 bytes depending on build flags and
platform, allocate 1 extra "safety" byte in the network buffer
for cases when uint3korr() in my_real_read() is called to read
last 3 bytes in the buffer.
It is practically hard to construct a reliable and reasonably
small test case for this bug as that would require constructing
input stream such that a certain sequence of bytes in a
compressed packet happens to be the last 3 bytes of the network
buffer.

Rename client_last_error to last_error and client_last_errno to last_errno
to not break connectors which use the internal net structure for error handling.
cause ROLLBACK of statement", part 1. Review fixes.
Do not send OK/EOF packets to the client until we reached the end of
the current statement.
This is a consolidation, to keep the functionality that is shared by all
SQL statements in one place in the server.
Currently this functionality includes:
- close_thread_tables()
- log_slow_statement().
After this patch and the subsequent patch for Bug#12713, it shall also include:
- ha_autocommit_or_rollback()
- net_end_statement()
- query_cache_end_of_result().
In future it may also include:
- mysql_reset_thd_for_next_command().
--long-query-time is now given in seconds with microseconds as decimals
--min_examined_row_limit added for slow query log
long_query_time user variable is now double with 6 decimals
Added functions to get time in microseconds
Added faster time() functions for system that has gethrtime() (Solaris)
We now do less time() calls.
Added field->in_read_set() and field->in_write_set() for easier field manipulation by handlers
set_var.cc and my_getopt() can now handle DOUBLE variables.
All time() calls changed to my_time()
my_time() now does retry's if time() call fails.
Added debug function for stopping in mysql_admin_table() when tables are locked
Some trivial function and struct variable renames to avoid merge errors.
Fixed compiler warnings
Initialization of some time variables on windows moved to my_init()
- The "mysql client in mysqld"(which is used by
replication and federated) should use alarms instead of setting
socket timeout value if the rest of the server uses alarm. By
always calling 'my_net_set_write_timeout'
or 'my_net_set_read_timeout' when changing the timeout value(s), the
selection whether to use alarms or timeouts will be handled by
ifdef's in those two functions.
- Move declaration of 'vio_timeout' into "vio_priv.h"
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
(Removes some warnings about UNIX_TIMESTAMP from the slave.err logs)
Marked federated_server as a '--big-test'
Change error in net_clear to 'Note', as it interfered with mysql-test-run.
Print information if net_clear() skipped bytes (As this otherwise hides critical timeing bugs)
Added DBUG_ASSERT if we get packets out of order
mysql_change_user() could on error send multiple packets, which caused mysql_client_test to randomly fail
