by a function and column
The bugreport reveals two different bugs about grouping
on a function:
1) grouping by the TIME_TO_SEC function result caused
a server crash or wrong results and
2) grouping by the function returning a blob caused
an unexpected "Duplicate entry" error and wrong
result.
Details for the 1st bug:
TIME_TO_SEC() returns NULL if its argument is invalid (empty
string for example). Thus its nullability depends not only
on the nullability of its arguments but also on their values.
Fixed by (overoptimistically) setting TIME_TO_SEC() to be
nullable despite the nullability of its arguments.
Details for the 2nd bug:
The server is unable to create indices on blobs without
explicit blob key part length. However, this fact was
ignored for blob function result fields of GROUP BY
intermediate tables.
Fixed by disabling GROUP BY index creation for blob
function result fields like regular blob fields.
variable assignments
The assert() that is firing is checking if expressions that can't be
null return a NULL when evaluated.
MAKEDATE() function can return NULL if the second argument is
less then or equal to 0. Thus its nullability depends not only on
the nullability of its arguments but also on their values.
Fixed by (overoptimistically) setting MAKEDATE() to be nullable
despite the nullability of its arguments.
Test added.
Had to update one test result to reflect the metadata change.

The MONTHNAME/DAYNAME functions
returns binary string, so the LOWER/UPPER functions
are not effective on the result of MONTHNAME/DAYNAME call.
Character set of the MONTHNAME/DAYNAME function
result has been changed to connection character set.
Problem 1: tests often fail in pushbuild with a timeout when waiting
for the slave to start/stop/receive error.
Fix 1: Updated the wait_for_slave_* macros in the following way:
- The timeout is increased by a factor ten
- Refactored the macros so that wait_for_slave_param does the work for
the other macros.
Problem 2: Tests are often incorrectly written, lacking a
source include/wait_for_slave_to_[start|stop].inc.
Fix 2: Improved the chance to get it right by adding
include/start_slave.inc and include/stop_slave.inc, and updated tests
to use these.
Problem 3: The the built-in test language command
wait_for_slave_to_stop is a misnomer (does not wait for the slave io
thread) and does not give as much debug info in case of failure as
the otherwise equivalent macro
source include/wait_for_slave_sql_to_stop.inc
Fix 3: Replaced all calls to the built-in command by a call to the
macro.
Problem 4: Some, but not all, of the wait_for_slave_* macros had an
implicit connection slave. This made some tests confusing to read,
and made it more difficult to use the macro in circular replication
scenarios, where the connection named master needs to wait.
Fix 4: Removed the implicit connection slave from all
wait_for_slave_* macros, and updated tests to use an explicit
connection slave where necessary.
Problem 5: The macros wait_slave_status.inc and wait_show_pattern.inc
were unused. Moreover, using them is difficult and error-prone.
Fix 5: remove these macros.
Problem 6: log_bin_trust_function_creators_basic failed when running
tests because it assumed @@global.log_bin_trust_function_creators=1,
and some tests modified this variable without resetting it to its
original value.
Fix 6: All tests that use this variable have been updated so that
they reset the value at end of test.
documentation
While the manual mentions FRAC_SECOND only for the TIMESTAMPADD()
function, it was also possible to use FRAC_SECOND with DATE_ADD(),
DATE_SUB() and +/- INTERVAL.
Fixed the parser to match the manual, i.e. using FRAC_SECOND for
anything other than TIMESTAMPADD()/TIMESTAMPDIFF() now produces a
syntax error.
Additionally, the patch allows MICROSECOND to be used in TIMESTAMPADD/
TIMESTAMPDIFF and marks FRAC_SECOND as deprecated.
This is a regression from 2007-05-18 when code to zero out the returned struct was
added to number_to_datetime(); zero for time_type corresponds to MYSQL_TIMESTAMP_DATE.
We now explicitly set the type we return (MYSQL_TIMESTAMP_DATETIME).
Even though it returns NULL, the MAKETIME function did not have this property set,
causing a failed assertion (designed to catch exactly this).
Fixed by setting the nullability property of MAKETIME().
(Regression, caused by a patch for the bug 22646).
Problem: when result type of date_format() was changed from
binary string to character string, mixing date_format()
with a ascii column in CONCAT() stopped to work.
Fix:
- adding "repertoire" flag into DTCollation class,
to mark items which can return only pure ASCII strings.
- allow character set conversion from pure ASCII to other character sets.
If we compare two items A and B, with B being (a constant) of a
larger type, then A gets promoted to B's type for comparison if
it's a constant, function, or CAST() column, but B gets demoted
to A's type if A is a (not explicitly CAST()) column. This is
counter-intuitive and not mandated by the standard.
Disabling optimisation where it would be lossy so field value
will properly get promoted and compared as binary string (rather
than as integers).
Checking for NULL before calling the val_xxx()
methods only checks for such arguments that are
known to be NULLs at compile time.
The arguments that may or may not contain
NULLs (e.g. function calls and possibly others)
are not checked at all.
Fixed by first calling the val_xxx() method and
then checking for null in SEC_TO_TIME().
In addition QUARTER() was not returning 0 (as all the
val_int() functions do when processing a NULL value).
(4.1 version, with post-review fixes)
The fix for another Bug (6439) limited FROM_UNIXTIME() to
TIMESTAMP_MAX_VALUE which is 2145916799 or 2037-12-01 23:59:59 GMT,
however unix timestamp in general is not considered to be limited
by this value. All dates up to power(2,31)-1 are valid.
This patch extends allowed TIMESTAMP range so, that max
TIMESTAMP value is power(2,31)-1. It also corrects
FROM_UNIXTIME() and UNIX_TIMESTAMP() functions, so that
max allowed UNIX_TIMESTAMP() is power(2,31)-1. FROM_UNIXTIME()
is fixed accordingly to allow conversion of dates up to
2038-01-19 03:14:07 UTC. The patch also fixes CONVERT_TZ()
function to allow extended range of dates.
The main problem solved in the patch is possible overflows
of variables, used in broken-time representation to time_t
conversion (required for UNIX_TIMESTAMP).
