Problem is not about intervals and doesn't actually cause 'full table scan'.
We have an optimization for DISTINCT when we have
'DISTINCT field_from_first_join_table' we don't need to read all the
rows from the JOIN-ed table if we found one conforming row.
It stopped working in 5.0 as we return NESTED_LOOP_OK if we came upon
that case in the evaluate_join_record() and that doesn't break the
recordreading loop in sub_select().
Fixed by returning NESTED_LOOP_NO_MORE_ROWS in this case.
The problem was that when convert_constant_item is called for subqueries,
this happens when we already started executing the top-level query, and
the field argument of convert_constant_item pointed to a valid table row.
In turn convert_constant_item used the field buffer to compute the value
of its item argument. This copied the item's value into the field,
and made equalities with outer references always true.
The fix saves/restores the original field's value when it belongs to an
outer table.
Both arguments of the function NAME_CONST must be constant expressions.
This constraint is checked in the Item_name_const::fix_fields method.
Yet if the argument of the function was not a constant expression no
error message was reported. As a result the client hanged waiting for a
response.
Now the function Item_name_const::fix_fields reports an error message
when any of the additional context conditions imposed on the function
NAME_CONST is not satisfied.
The index (key_part_1, key_part-2) was erroneously considered as compatible
with the required ordering in the function test_test_if_order_by_key when
a query with an ORDER BY clause contained a condition of the form
key_part_1=const OR key_part_1 IS NULL
and the order list contained only key_part_2. This happened because the value
of the const_key_parts field in the KEYUSE structure was not formed correctly
for the keys that could be used for ref_or_null access.
This was fixed in the code of the update_ref_and_keys function.
The problem could not manifest itself for MyISAM databases because the
implementation of the keys_to_use_for_scanning() handler function always
returns an empty bitmap for the MyISAM engine.
Change LAST_EXECUTED time the execution start time, instead of the execution completion time. This ensures the END time always the same or later than the LAST_EXECUTED time.
The Item_func_set_user_var::register_field_in_read_map() did not check
that the result_field was null.This caused server crashes for queries that
required order by such a field and were executed without using a temporary
table.
The Item_func_set_user_var::register_field_in_read_map() now checks the
result_field to be not null.
Problem: when alter to partitioned table,
it does not see it as change of engine.
Solution: If alter includes partitioning, check if it is possible
to change engines (eg. is the table referenced by a FK)
ha_partition::update_create_info() just calls update_create_info
of a first partition, so only get the autoincrement maximum
of the first partition, so SHOW CREATE TABLE can show
small AUTO_INCREMENT parameters.
Fixed by implementing ha_partition::update_create_info() in a way
other handlers work.
HA_ARCHIVE:stats.auto_increment handling made consistent with other engines
