JOIN, and ORDER BY
Problem: improper maximum length calculation of the CASE function leads to
decimal value truncation (storing/retrieving decimal field values).
Fix: accurately calculate maximum length/unsigned flag/decimals parameters
of the CASE function.
file .\ha_innodb.
Problem: if a partial unique key followed by a non-partial one we declare
the second one as a primary key.
Fix: sort non-partial unique keys before partial ones.
Problem: lying to the optimizer that a function (Item_func_inet_ntoa)
cannot return NULL values leads to unexpected results (in the case group
keys creation/comparison is broken).
Fix: Item_func_inet_ntoa::maybe_null should be set properly.
Previously, UDF *_init functions were passed constant strings with erroneous lengths. The length came from the containing variable's size, not the length of the value itself.
Now the *_init functions get the constant as a null terminated string with the correct length supplied too.
The root cause of the issue was that the CREATE FUNCTION grammar,
for User Defined Functions, was using the sp_name rule.
The sp_name rule is intended for fully qualified stored procedure names,
like either ident.ident, or just ident but with a default database
implicitly selected.
A UDF does not have a fully qualified name, only a name (ident), and should
not use the sp_name grammar fragment during parsing.
The fix is to re-organize the CREATE FUNCTION grammar, to better separate:
- creating UDF (no definer, can have AGGREGATE, simple ident)
- creating Stored Functions (definer, no AGGREGATE, fully qualified name)
With the test case provided, another issue was exposed which is also fixed:
the DROP FUNCTION statement was using sp_name and also failing when no database
is implicitly selected, when droping UDF functions.
The fix is also to change the grammar so that DROP FUNCTION works with
both the ident.ident syntax (to drop a stored function), or just the ident
syntax (to drop either a UDF or a Stored Function, in the current database)
Problem:
my_strntoull10rnd_8bit() handled incorrectly cases when the input
string contains a decimal point and is long enough to overrun the
'unsigned long long' type. The position of the decimal point was not
taken into account which resulted in miscalculated numbers and
truncation to appropriate SQL data type limits.
Solution:
Fix my_strntoull10rnd_8bit() to take the position of a decimal point
into account in such cases.
makedate() will fold years below 100 into the 1970-2069 range. CS removes code
that also wrongly folded years between 100 and 200 into that range, which should
be left unchanged. Backport from 5.1.
Problem: GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT BIT_FIELD...) uses a tree to store keys;
which are constructed using a temporary table fields,
see Item_func_group_concat::setup().
As a) we don't store null bits in the tree where the bit fields store parts
of their data and b) there's no method to properly compare two table records
we've got problem.
Fix: convert BIT fields to INT in the temporary table used.
myisam_sort_buffer_size.
An incorrect length of the sort buffer was used when calculating the
maximum number of keys. When myisam_sort_buffer_size is small enough,
this could result in the number of keys < number of
BUFFPEK structures which in turn led to use of uninitialized BUFFPEKs.
Fixed by correcting the buffer length calculation.
Bug#29816 Syntactically wrong query fails with misleading error message
The core problem is that an SQL-invoked function name can be a <schema
qualified routine name> that contains no <schema name>, but the mysql
parser insists that all stored procedures (function, procedures and
triggers) must have a <schema name>, which is not true for functions.
This problem is especially visible when trying to create a function
or when a query contains a syntax error after a function call (in the
same query), both will fail with a "No database selected" message if
the session is not attached to a particular schema, but the first
one should succeed and the second fail with a "syntax error" message.
Part of the fix is to revamp the sp name handling so that a schema
name may be omitted for functions -- this means that the internal
function name representation may not have a dot, which represents
that the function doesn't have a schema name. The other part is
to place schema checks after the type (function, trigger or procedure)
of the routine is known.
