Two problems here:
Problem 1:
While constructing the join columns list the optimizer does as follows:
1. Sets the join_using_fields/natural_join members of the right JOIN
operand.
2. Makes a "table reference" (TABLE_LIST) to parent the two tables.
3. Assigns the join_using_fields/is_natural_join of the wrapper table
using join_using_fields/natural_join of the rightmost table
4. Sets join_using_fields to NULL for the right JOIN operand.
5. Passes the parent table up to the same procedure on the upper
level.
Step 1 overrides the the join_using_fields that are set for a nested
join wrapping table in step 4.
Fixed by making a designated variable SELECT_LEX::prev_join_using to
pass the data from step 1 to step 4 without destroying the wrapping
table data.
Problem 2:
The optimizer checks for ambiguous columns while transforming
NATURAL JOIN/JOIN USING to JOIN ON. While doing that there was no
distinction between columns that are used in the generated join
condition (where ambiguity can be checked) and the other columns
(where ambiguity can be checked only when resolving references
coming from outside the JOIN construct itself).
Fixed by allowing the non-USING columns to be present in multiple
copies in both sides of the join and moving the ambiguity check
to the place where unqualified references to the join columns are
resolved (find_field_in_natural_join()).
Removed a lot of compiler warnings
Removed not used variables, functions and labels
Initialize some variables that could be used unitialized (fatal bugs)

The build scripts in general, using automake, autoconf, etc, contain several
special commands and work around all related to the way the bison code in the
parser is built, for sql/sql_yacc.yy. These work arounds, accumulated over
time during development, ultimately cause the build scripts to be unstable
and cause build defects by not enforcing dependencies.
This fix simplifies the build process and aligns it with the automake tooling,
which provides native support for bison and *.yy files.
In particular, the following problem have been fixed:
- dependencies with sql_yacc.cc were not honored (Bug 21029), leading to
corrupted builds,
- the work around introduced by Bug 24557, to cleanup the generated files
sql_yacc.h and sql_yacc.cc, has been removed,
- the generated makefile, in a source distribution, used to destroy the files
sql_yacc.h and sql_yacc.cc on a 'make clean' target. This has been fixed:
these files are now removed by make maintainer-clean.
- The root cause of the problem found with gcc 4.1 (see Bug 24619) has been
clearly documented, and the "sed" hack has been replaced by a cleaner
work around, when building the code with bison 1.875.
- Removed the file sql/sql_yacc.yy.bak, added by WL 3031 by accident.
- Removed the unnecessary AM_YFLAG= --debug introduced by WL 3432, since
the compiling option DBUG_OFF takes precedence when setting YYDEBUG.
According to some internal communication, these two functions are place
holders for future enhancements. Because they use a variable number of
parameters, the implementation defined a reserved keyword for them in the
parser grammar.
Unfortunately, doing so creates a bug similar to Bug 21114 reported for the
function FORMAT.
In the 5.1 code base, due to improvements in the code implemented with bug
21114, having a reserved keyword for functions with a variable number of
arguments is not needed any more by the implementation.
As a result, this fix removes the place-holder implementation, and removes
the unnecessary reserved keywords. Should the functions UNIQUE_USERS and
GROUP_UNIQUE_USERS be finally implemented in a later release, the
implementation should sub class Create_native_func in sql/item_create.cc.
For example, see the class Create_func_concat.
This fix corrects build issues introduced by WL#3031:
- In the SQL grammar, 'USER' is a SQL 2003 reserved keyword,
and therefore should not be part of the keyword production.
- In sql/sql_parse.cc, the code for CREATE SERVER and ALTER SERVER
was not using proper format strings in the DBUG_PRINT statements.
- Removed not used variables and functions
- Added #ifdef around code that is not used
- Renamed variables and functions to avoid conflicts
- Removed some not used arguments
Fixed some class/struct warnings in ndb
Added define IS_LONGDATA() to simplify code in libmysql.c
I did run gcov on the changes and added 'purecov' comments on almost all lines that was not just variable name changes
Post-commit issues fixed
* Test results for other tests fixed due to added error #s
* Memory allocation/free issues found with running with valgrind
* Fix to mysql-test-run shell script to run federated_server test (installs
mysql.servers table properly)
Bug#4968 "Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Test cases for bugs 4968, 19733, 6895 will be added in 5.0.
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table were not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they used to modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure in
LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory of
the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO (note that code in 5.1 already creates and
uses a copy of this structure in mysql_create_table()/alter_table(),
but this approach didn't work well for CREATE TABLE SELECT statement).
Before this fix, a call to a User Defined Function (UDF) could,
under some circumstances, be interpreted as a call to a Stored function
instead. This occurred if a native function was invoked in the parameters
for the UDF, as in "select my_udf(abs(x))".
The root cause of this defect is the introduction, by the fix for Bug 21809,
of st_select_lex::udf_list, and it's usage in the parser in sql_yacc.yy
in the rule function_call_generic (in 5.1).
While the fix itself for Bug 21809 is correct in 5.0, the code change
merged into the 5.1 release created the issue, because the calls in 5.1 to :
- lex->current_select->udf_list.push_front(udf)
- lex->current_select->udf_list.pop()
are not balanced in case of native functions, causing the udf_list,
which is really a stack, to be out of sync with the internal stack
maintained by the bison parser.
Instead of moving the call to udf_list.pop(), which would have fixed the
symptom, this patch goes further and removes the need for udf_list.
This is motivated by two reasons:
a) Maintaining a stack in the MySQL code in sync with the stack maintained
internally in sql_yacc.cc (not .yy) is extremely dependent of the
implementation of yacc/bison, and extremely difficult to maintain.
It's also totally dependent of the structure of the grammar, and has a risk
to break with regression defects each time the grammar itself is changed.
b) The previous code did report construct like "foo(expr AS name)" as
syntax errors (ER_PARSER_ERROR), which is incorrect, and misleading.
The syntax is perfectly valid, as this expression is valid when "foo" is
a UDF. Whether this syntax is legal or not depends of the semantic of "foo".
With this change:
a) There is only one stack (in bison), and no List<udf_func> to maintain.
b) "foo(expr AS name)", when used incorrectly, is reported as semantic error:
- ER_WRONG_PARAMETERS_TO_NATIVE_FCT (for native functions)
- ER_WRONG_PARAMETERS_TO_STORED_FCT (for stored functions)
This is achieved by the changes implemented in item_create.cc
Backport of functionality in private 5.2 tree.
Added new language to parser, new mysql.servers table and associated code
to be used by the federated storage engine to allow central connection information
per WL entry.
Fixed compiler warnings (detected by VC++):
- Removed not used variables
- Added casts
- Fixed wrong assignments to bool
- Fixed wrong calls with bool arguments
- Added missing argument to store(longlong), which caused wrong store method to be called.
