- BUG#11986: Stored routines and triggers can fail if the code
has a non-ascii symbol
- BUG#16291: mysqldump corrupts string-constants with non-ascii-chars
- BUG#19443: INFORMATION_SCHEMA does not support charsets properly
- BUG#21249: Character set of SP-var can be ignored
- BUG#25212: Character set of string constant is ignored (stored routines)
- BUG#25221: Character set of string constant is ignored (triggers)
There were a few general problems that caused these bugs:
1. Character set information of the original (definition) query for views,
triggers, stored routines and events was lost.
2. mysqldump output query in client character set, which can be
inappropriate to encode definition-query.
3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA used strings with mixed encodings to display object
definition;
1. No query-definition-character set.
In order to compile query into execution code, some extra data (such as
environment variables or the database character set) is used. The problem
here was that this context was not preserved. So, on the next load it can
differ from the original one, thus the result will be different.
The context contains the following data:
- client character set;
- connection collation (character set and collation);
- collation of the owner database;
The fix is to store this context and use it each time we parse (compile)
and execute the object (stored routine, trigger, ...).
2. Wrong mysqldump-output.
The original query can contain several encodings (by means of character set
introducers). The problem here was that we tried to convert original query
to the mysqldump-client character set.
Moreover, we stored queries in different character sets for different
objects (views, for one, used UTF8, triggers used original character set).
The solution is
- to store definition queries in the original character set;
- to change SHOW CREATE statement to output definition query in the
binary character set (i.e. without any conversion);
- introduce SHOW CREATE TRIGGER statement;
- to dump special statements to switch the context to the original one
before dumping and restore it afterwards.
Note, in order to preserve the database collation at the creation time,
additional ALTER DATABASE might be used (to temporary switch the database
collation back to the original value). In this case, ALTER DATABASE
privilege will be required. This is a backward-incompatible change.
3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA showed non-UTF8 strings
The fix is to generate UTF8-query during the parsing, store it in the object
and show it in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
Basically, the idea is to create a copy of the original query convert it to
UTF8. Character set introducers are removed and all text literals are
converted to UTF8.
This UTF8 query is intended to provide user-readable output. It must not be
used to recreate the object. Specialized SHOW CREATE statements should be
used for this.
The reason for this limitation is the following: the original query can
contain symbols from several character sets (by means of character set
introducers).
Example:
- original query:
CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT _cp1251 'Hello' AS c1;
- UTF8 query (for INFORMATION_SCHEMA):
CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT 'Hello' AS c1;
SHOW CREATE TABLE fails
Underlying table names, that merge engine fails to open were not
reported.
With this fix CHECK TABLE issued against merge table reports all
underlying table names that it fails to open. Other statements
are unaffected, that is underlying table names are not included
into error message.
This fix doesn't solve SHOW CREATE TABLE issue.

Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
This patch corrects errors that occurred in a local manual merge.
It adds the originator column in the results of the SHOW EVENTS command
for a series of tests.
The only code change is to correct references to the classname in
enums.
BUG#26429: SHOW CREATE EVENT is incorrect for an event that
STARTS NOW()
BUG#26431: Impossible to re-create an event from backup if its
STARTS clause is in the past
WL#3698: Events: execution in local time zone
The problem was that local times specified by the user in AT, STARTS
and ENDS of CREATE EVENT/ALTER EVENT statement were converted to UTC,
and the original time zone was forgotten. This way, event scheduler
couldn't honor Daylight Saving Time shifts, and times shown to the
user were also in UTC. Additionally, CREATE EVENT didn't allow times
in the past, thus preventing straightforward event restoration from
old backups.
This patch reworks event scheduler time computations, performing them
in the time zone associated with the event. Also it allows times to
be in the past.
The patch adds time_zone column to mysql.event table.
NOTE: The patch is almost final, but the bug#9953 should be pushed
first.
During statement prepare phase the tables were locked as if the
statement is being executed, however this is not necessary.
The solution is to not lock tables on statement prepare phase.
Opening tables is enough to prevent DDL on them, and during statement
prepare we do not access nor modify any data.

Small trivial cleanups
This also fixes a bug in counting number of rows that are updated when we have many simultanous queries
Move all connection handling and command exectuion main loop from sql_parse.cc to sql_connection.cc
Split handle_one_connection() into reusable sub functions.
Split create_new_thread() into reusable sub functions.
Added thread_scheduler; Preliminary interface code for future thread_handling code.
Use 'my_thread_id' for internal thread id's
Make thr_alarm_kill() to depend on thread_id instead of thread

on duplicate key".
INSERT ... SELECT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE which was used in
stored routine or as prepared statement and which in its ON DUPLICATE
KEY clause erroneously tried to assign value to a column mentioned only
in its SELECT part was properly emitting error on the first execution
but succeeded on the second and following executions.
Code which is responsible for name resolution of fields mentioned in
UPDATE clause (e.g. see select_insert::prepare()) modifies table list
and Name_resolution_context used in this process. It uses
Name_resolution_context_state::save_state/restore_state() to revert
these modifications. Unfortunately those two methods failed to revert
properly modifications to TABLE_LIST::next_name_resolution_table
and this broke name resolution process for successive executions.
This patch fixes Name_resolution_context_state::save_state/restore_state()
in such way that it properly handles TABLE_LIST::next_name_resolution_table.
Blocked evaluation of constant objects of the classes
Item_func_is_null and Item_is_not_null_test at the
prepare phase in the cases when the objects used subqueries.
Removed an assertion that was not valid for the cases where the query
in a prepared statement contained a single-row non-correlated
subquery that was used as an argument of the IS NULL predicate.

prepared statement and subquery.
When a field of a view from an outer select is resolved the find_field_in_view
function creates an Item_direct_view_ref object that references the
corresponding view underlying field. After that the view_ref is marked
as a dependent one. While resolving view underlying field it also get
marked as a dependent one due to current_select still points to the subselect.
Marking the view underlying field is wrong and lead to attaching conditions
to a wrong table and thus to the wrong result of the whole statement.
Now mark_select_range_as_dependent() function isn't called for fields from a
view underlying table.
Use mutex when reading prepared_stmt_count global status variable.
Update test case for bug 16365 and bug 23159: add test for

Before this change, the functions BENCHMARK, ENCODE, DECODE and FORMAT could
only accept a constant for some parameters.
After this change, this restriction has been removed. An implication is that
these functions can also be used in prepared statements.
The change consist of changing the following classes:
- Item_func_benchmark
- Item_func_encode
- Item_func_decode
- Item_func_format
to:
- only accept Item* in the constructor,
- and evaluate arguments during calls to val_xxx()
which fits the general design of all the other functions.
The 'TODO' items identified in item_create.cc during the work done for
Bug 21114 are addressed by this fix, as a natural consequence of aligning
the design.
In the 'func_str' test, a single very long test line involving an explain
extended select with many functions has been rewritten into multiple
separate tests, to improve maintainability.
The result of explain extended select decode(encode(...)) has changed,
since the encode and decode functions now print all their parameters.
