bitmap_is_set(table->write_set, fiel
Problem: creating a temporary table we allocate the group buffer if needed
followed by table bitmaps (see create_tmp_table()). Reserving less memory for
the group buffer than actually needed (used) for values retrieval may lead
to overlapping with followed bitmaps in the memory pool that in turn leads
to unpredictable consequences.
As we use Item->max_length sometimes to calculate group buffer size,
it must be set to proper value. In this particular case
Item_datetime_typecast::max_length is too small.
Another problem is that we use max_length to calculate the group buffer
key length for items represented as DATE/TIME fields which is superfluous.
Fix: set Item_datetime_typecast::max_length properly,
accurately calculate the group buffer key length for items
represented as DATE/TIME fields in the buffer.
Our web server has been restructured several times, and references
to it in our source code has stayed the same. This patch from Paul
DuBois updates all URLs to modern semantics.
Problem: creating an rb-tree key we store length (2 bytes) before the actual data for
varchar key parts. The fact was missed for NULL key parts, when we set NULL byte and
skip the rest.
Fix: take into account the length of the varchar key parts for NULLs.
This actually, fix for the patch for bug-27354. The problem with
the patch was that Item_func_sp::used_tables() was updated, but
Item_func_sp::const_item() was not. So, for Item_func_sp, we had
the following inconsistency:
- used_tables() returned RAND_TABLE, which means that the item
can produce "random" results;
- but const_item() returned TRUE, which means that the item is
a constant one.
The fix is to change Item_func_sp::const_item() behaviour: it must
return TRUE (an item is a constant one) only if a stored function
is deterministic and each of its arguments (if any) is a constant
item.
Bug#28878: InnoDB tables with UTF8 character set and indexes cause wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20) must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer. This is what Field_string::store() does. Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.
were accidentally removed during a previous rototill of this
code. Fixes bug#27692.
While it can be argued we should strive to provide a 'secure by
default' installation, this happens to be the setup currently
documented in the manual as the default, so defer changes that
improve security out of the box to a co-ordinated effort later
on.
For now, make a note about the test databases and anonymous user
in mysql_install_db and recommend that mysql_secure_installation
be ran for users wishing to remove these defaults.

This is for bug #29446 "Specifying a myisam_sort_buffer > 4GB on 64 bit machines not possible". Support for myisam_sort_buffer_size > 4 GB on 64-bit Windows will be looked at later in 5.2.
and for bug #31070: crash during conversion of charsets
Problem: passing a 0 byte length string to some my_mb_wc_XXX()
functions leads to server crash due to improper argument check.
Fix: properly check arguments passed to my_mb_wc_XXX() functions.
clean up SHOW GRANTS so it will show host-names with case as entered.
make REVOKE and friends case-sensitive to make things more intuitive.

added get_field_default_value() function which obtains default value from the field
(used in store_create_info() & get_schema_column_record() functions)
The optimizer sets index traversal in reverse order only if there are
used key parts that are not compared to a constant.
However using the primary key as an ORDER BY suffix rendered the check
incomplete : going in reverse order must still be used even if
all the parts of the secondary key are compared to a constant.
Fixed by relaxing the check and set reverse traversal even when all
the secondary index keyparts are compared to a const.
Also account for the case when all the primary keys are compared to a
constant.
- The bug was caused by COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code using Unique object in
a way that assumed that BIT(N) column occupies a contiguous space in
temp_table->record[0] buffer.
- The fix is to make COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code instruct create_tmp_table to
create temporary table with column of type BIGINT, not BIT(N).
