When executing ALTER TABLE all the attributes of the view were overwritten.
This is contrary to the user's expectations.
So some of the view attributes are preserved now : namely security and
algorithm. This means that if they are not specified in ALTER VIEW
their values are preserved from CREATE VIEW instead of being defaulted.
difference between timestamp in values of months and quarters.)
Problem: when requesting timestamp diff in months or quarters, it
would only examine the date (and not the time) for the comparison.
Solution: increased precision of comparison.
'conc_sys' test
Concurrent execution of SELECT involing at least two INFORMATION_SCHEMA
tables, DROP DATABASE statement and DROP TABLE statement could have
resulted in stalled connection for this SELECT statement.
The problem was that for the first query of a join there was a race
between select from I_S.TABLES and DROP DATABASE, and the error (no
such database) was prepared to be send to the client, but the join
processing was continued. On second query to I_S.COLUMNS there was a
race with DROP TABLE, but this error (no such table) was downgraded to
warning, and thd->net.report_error was reset. And so neither result
nor error was sent to the client.
The solution is to stop join processing once it is clear we are going
to report a error, and also to downgrade to warnings file system errors
like 'no such database' (unless we are in the 'SHOW' command), because
I_S is designed not to use locks and the query to I_S should not abort
if something is dropped in the middle.
No test case is provided since this bug is a result of a race, and is
timing dependant. But we test that plain SHOW TABLES and SHOW COLUMNS
give a error if there is no such database or a table respectively.
can be not replicable.
Now CREATE statements for writing in the binlog are created as follows:
- the beginning of the statement is re-created;
- the rest of the statement is copied from the original query.
The problem appears when there is a version-specific comment (produced by
mysqldump), started in the re-created part of the statement and closed in the
copied part -- there is closing comment-parenthesis, but there is no opening
one.
The proper fix could be to re-create original statement, but we can not
implement it in 5.0. So, for 5.0 the fix is just to cut closing
comment-parenthesis. This technique is also used for SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE
statement (so we are able to reuse existing code).
Fix for BUG#16676: Database CHARSET not used for stored procedures
The problem in BUG#16211 is that CHARSET-clause of the return type for
stored functions is just ignored.
The problem in BUG#16676 is that if character set is not explicitly
specified for sp-variable, the server character set is used instead
of the database one.
The fix has two parts:
- always store CHARSET-clause of the return type along with the
type definition in mysql.proc.returns column. "Always" means that
CHARSET-clause is appended even if it has not been explicitly
specified in CREATE FUNCTION statement (this affects BUG#16211 only).
Storing CHARSET-clause if it is not specified is essential to avoid
changing character set if the database character set is altered in
the future.
NOTE: this change is not backward compatible with the previous releases.
- use database default character set if CHARSET-clause is not explicitly
specified (this affects both BUG#16211 and BUG#16676).
NOTE: this also breaks backward compatibility.
When processing aggregate functions all tables values are reset
to NULLs at the end of each group.
When doing that if there are no rows found for a group
the const tables must not be reset as they are not recalculated
by do_select()/sub_select() for each group.
When optimizing conditions like 'a = <some_val> OR a IS NULL' so that they're
united into a single condition on the key and checked together the server must
check which value is the NULL value in a correct way : not only using ->is_null
but also check if the expression doesn't depend on any tables referenced in the
current statement.
This additional check must be performed because that optimization takes place
before the actual execution of the statement, so if the field was initialized
to NULL from a previous statement the optimization would be applied incorrectly.
Added HA_NULL_IN_KEY to table flags to allow for nullable unique indexes
and added test to verify
ha_federated.h:
BUG #15133 "unique index with nullable value not accepted in federated table"
added HA_NULL_IN_KEY to table flags to allow for nullable unique indexes
federated.test:
BUG #15133 "unique index with nullable value not accepted in federated table"
New test to show that nullable unique indexes work
federated.result:
BUG #15133 "unique index with nullable value not accepted in federated table"
New results for new test
The problem was in that opt_sum_query() replaced MIN/MAX functions
with the corresponding constant found in a key, but due to imprecise
representation of float numbers, when evaluating the where clause,
this comparison failed.
When MIN/MAX optimization detects that all tables can be removed,
also remove all conjuncts in a where clause that refer to these
tables. As a result of this fix, these conditions are not evaluated
twice, and in the case of float number comparisons we do not discard
result rows due to imprecise float representation.
As a side-effect this fix also corrects an unnoticed problem in
bug 12882.
When there is no index defined filesort is used to sort the result of a
query. If there is a function in the select list and the result set should be
ordered by it's value then this function will be evaluated twice. First time to
get the value of the sort key and second time to send its value to a user.
This happens because filesort when sorts a table remembers only values of its
fields but not values of functions.
All functions are affected. But taking into account that SP and UDF functions
can be both expensive and non-deterministic a temporary table should be used
to store their results and then sort it to avoid twice SP evaluation and to
get a correct result.
If an expression referenced in an ORDER clause contains a SP or UDF
function, force the use of a temporary table.
A new Item_processor function called func_type_checker_processor is added
to check whether the expression contains a function of a particular type.
When executing INSERT over a view with calculated columns it was assuming all
elements of the fields collection are actually Item_field instances.
This may not be true when inserting into a view and that view has columns that are
such expressions that allow updating (like setting a collation for example).
Corrected to access field information through the filed_for_view_update() function and
retrieve correctly the field info even for "update-friendly" non-Item_field items.
LIKE craashed with a pattern having letters in the range 128..255
(e.g. A WITH ACUTE or C WITH CARON) because of wrong cast from
signed char to unsigned int.
The fix is: if user has privileges to view fields and user has any
(insert,select,delete,update) privileges on underlying view
then 'show fields' and select from I_S.COLUMNS table are sucsessful.
when calculating GROUP_CONCAT all blob fields are transformed
to varchar when making the temp table.
However a varchar has at max 2 bytes for length.
This fix makes the conversion only for blobs whose max length
is below that limit.
Otherwise blob field is created by make_string_field() call.
