This bug was intruduced by the fix for bug#17212 (in 4.1). It is not
ok to call test_if_skip_sort_order since this function will
alter the execution plan. By contract it is not ok to call
test_if_skip_sort_order in this context.
This bug appears only in the case when the optimizer has chosen
an index for accessing a particular table but finds a covering
index that enables it to skip ORDER BY. This happens in
test_if_skip_sort_order.
It was syntactically correct to define
spatial keys over parts of columns (e.g.
ALTER TABLE t1 ADD x GEOMETRY NOT NULL,
ADD SPATIAL KEY (x(32))).
This may lead to undefined results and/or
interpretation.
Fixed by not allowing partial column
specification in a SPATIAL index definition.
Different set of conditions is used to verify
the validity of index definitions over a GEOMETRY
column in ALTER TABLE and CREATE TABLE.
The difference was on how sub-keys notion validity
is checked.
Fixed by extending the CREATE TABLE condition to
support the cases allowed in ALTER TABLE.
Made the SHOW CREATE TABLE not to display spatial
indexes using the sub-key notion.
differences in tables
Certain merge tables were wrongly reported as having incorrect definition:
- Some fields that are 1 byte long (e.g. TINYINT, CHAR(1)), might
be internally casted (in certain cases) to a different type on a
storage engine layer. (affects 4.1 and up)
- If tables in a merge (and a MERGE table itself) had short VARCHAR column (less
than 4 bytes) and at least one (but not all) tables were ALTER'ed (even to an
identical table: ALTER TABLE xxx ENGINE=yyy), table definitions went ouf of
sync. (affects 4.1 only)
This is fixed by relaxing a check for underlying conformance and setting
field type to FIELD_TYPE_STRING in case varchar is shorter than 4
when a table is created.

when the column is to be read from a derived table column which
was specified as a concatenation of string literals.
The bug happened because the Item_string::append did not adjust the
value of Item_string::max_length. As a result of it the temporary
table column defined to store the concatenation of literals was
not wide enough to hold the whole value.
after single-row table substitution could lead to a wrong result set.
The bug happened because the function Item_field::replace_equal_field
erroniously assumed that any field included in a multiple equality
with a constant has been already substituted for this constant.
This not true for fields becoming constant after row substitutions
for constant tables.
When the SUBSTRING() function was used over a LONGTEXT field the max_length of
the SUBSTRING() result was wrongly calculated and set to 0. As the max_length
parameter is used while tmp field creation it limits the length of the result
field and leads to printing an empty string instead of the correct result.
Now the Item_func_substr::fix_length_and_dec() function correctly calculates
the max_length parameter.
When rand() is called multiple times inside a stored procedure, the server does
not binlog the correct random seed values.
This patch corrects the problem by resetting rand_used= 0 in
THD::cleanup_after_query() allowing the system to save the random seeds if needed
for each command in a stored procedure body.
However, rand_used is not reset if executing in a stored function or trigger
because these operations are binlogged by call and thus only the calling statement
need detect the call to rand() made by its substatements. These substatements must
not set rand_used to 0 because it would remove the detection of rand() by the
calling statement.
Cache".
WL#1569 "Prepared Statements: implement support of Query Cache".
Prepared SELECTs did not look up in the query cache, and their results
were not stored in the query cache. This made them slower than
non-prepared SELECTs in some cases.
The fix is to re-use the expanded query (the prepared query where
"?" placeholders are replaced by their values, at execution time)
for searching/storing in the query cache.
It works fine for statements prepared via mysql_stmt_prepare(), which
are the most commonly used and were the scope of this bugfix and WL.
It works less fine for statements prepared via the SQL command
PREPARE...FROM, which are still not using the query cache if they
have at least one parameter (because then the expanded query contains
names of user variables, and user variables don't work with the
query cache, even in non-prepared queries).
Note that results from prepared SELECTs, which are in the binary
protocol, and results from normal SELECTs, which are in the text
protocol, ignore each other in the query cache, because a result in the
binary protocol should never be served to a SELECT expecting the text
protocol and vice-versa.
Note, after this patch, bug 25843 starts applying to query cache
("changing default database between PREPARE and EXECUTE of statement
breaks binlog"), we need to fix it.
for bug#16425: Events: no DEFINER clause. The problem was that there
were two rules
ALTER view_algorithm_opt definer ... VIEW ...
ALTER definer EVENT ...
so when there was 'ALTER definer' in the input it was unclear if empty
view_algorithm_opt should be executed or not.
We solve this by introducing three distinct rules
ALTER view_algorithm definer ... VIEW ...
ALTER definer ... VIEW ...
ALTER definer EVENT ...
that remove the ambiguity.
