When resolving unqualified name references MySQL was not
checking what is the item type for the reference. Thus
e.g a string literal item that has by convention a name
equal to its string value will also work as a reference to
a SELECT list item or a table field.
Fixed by allowing only Item_ref or Item_field to referenced by
(unqualified) name.
length.
When temporary field created for DATE(LEFT(column,8)) expression, max_length
value is taken from Item_date_typecast, and it is getting it from underlaid
Item_func_left and it's max_length is 8 in given expression. And all this
results in stripping last 2 digits.
To Item_date_typecast class added its own fix_length_and_dec() function
that sets max_length value to 10, which is proper for DATE field.
Added a test case for bug #11414.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #11414: crash on Windows with some simple
GROUP BY queries.
It happened to an allocation of an array containing
0 Copy_field elements in setup_copy_fields.
The bug had been already fixed in 5.0.
Added a test case for bug #11295.
item_buff.cc:
Fixed bug #11295.
This a correction for the patch of bug #11088 that takes into
account a possible NULL values of the BLOB column.
Added a test case for bug #11385.
group_by.test:
Added a test case for bug #11385.
field.h:
Fixed bug #11385.
The bug was due to not defined method decimals for the class
Field_datetime.
Added a test case for bug #8614.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #8614.
SELECT DISTINCT ... GROUP BY 'const' must be equivalent to
SELECT ... GROUP BY 'const'.
Fixed bug #11088: a crash for queries with GROUP BY a BLOB column
+ COUNT(DISTINCT...) due to an attempt to allocate a too large
buffer for the BLOB field.
Now the size of the buffer is limited by max_sort_length.
group_by.test, group_by.result:
Added a test case for bug #11088.
Ensure that references in HAVING, ORDER BY or GROUP BY are calculated after fields in SELECT.
This will ensure that any reference to these has a valid value.
Generalized the code for split_sum_func()
In Item_ref::Item_ref set maybe_null (and other fields fix_fields sets) to be the
same as in (*ref), because Item_ref::fix_fields() will not be called. Previously
maybe_null was 0 always and this produced a bogus state where
maybe_null==0 && is_null() == true
which broke evaluation for some upper-level Items, like AND and OR.
Cleaned up embedded library access and query cache handling
Changed min stack size to 128K (to allow longer MyISAM keys)
Fixed wrong priority for XOR (should be less than NEG to get -1^1 to work)
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
Call pthread_mutex_destroy() on not used mutex.
Changed comments in .h and .c files from // -> /* */
Added detection of mutex on which one didn't call pthread_mutex_destroy()
Fixed bug in create_tmp_field() which causes a memory overrun in queries that uses "ORDER BY constant_expression"
Added optimisation for ORDER BY NULL
