bug #27715: mysqld --character-sets-dir buffer overflow
bug ##26851: Mysql Client --pager Buffer Overflow
Using strmov() to copy an argument may cause overflow
if the argument's length is bigger than the buffer:
use strmake instead.
Also, we have to encrease the error message buffer size to fit
the longest message.
Bug#13238 mysqldump and mysqladmin hangs
Avoid recursion into init_available_charsets.
Serg's version didn't work for me: I got
double mutex locking.
Pushing this version instead
(It was approved by Serg anyway)
In cp932, '\' character can be the second byte in a
multi-byte character stream. This makes it difficult to use
mysql_escape_string. Added flag to indicate which languages allow
'\' as second byte of multibyte sequence so that when putting a prepared
statement into the binlog we can decide at runtime whether hex encoding
is really needed.
(important for Adobe).
mf_pack.c, mf_dirname.c, charset.c, my_sys.h:
- adding fs_character_set() function on Windows
- ignoring fake slashes which are just multibyte
parts in several functions in /mysys
Verified by Shu to work on WinXP and Win2k.
Test is not possible, or very hard to do.
Bug#12109 possible locking bug in init_available_charset
Recheck charset_initialized inside locked code,
to garantee two threads are not entering
consequently.
don't call escape_string_for_mysql() unnecesary
don't overwrite local buffer
escape_string_for_mysql():
take a length of the destination buffer as an argument
- A new flag MY_CS_CSSORT was introduced for case sensitivity.
- Item_func_regexp doesn't substiture ICASE not only
for binary collations but for case sensitive collations as well.
- mutex was unlocked before the end of the critical sesion,
- Portability issue: It's better to use (*alloc)(x) instead of alloc(x),
if alloc is a function passed as an argument.
- Use {} around if() block, to avoid possible problems with some Windows compilers.
after Monty's review.
- Item_param was rewritten.
- it turns out that we can't convert string data to character set of
connection on the fly, because they first should be written to the binary
log.
To support efficient conversion we need to rewrite prepared statements
binlogging code first.
Don't read character set files if we are using only the default charset. In most cases the user will not anymore get a warning about missing character set files
Compare strings with space extend instead of space strip. Now the following comparisons holds: "a" == "a " and "a\t" < "a". (Bug #3152).
Note: Because of the above fix, one has to do a REPAIR on any table that has an ascii character < 32 last in a CHAR/VARCHAR/TEXT columns.
