result.
For built-in functions like sqrt() function names are hard-coded and can be
compared by pointer. But this isn't the case for a used-defined stored
functions - names there are dynamical and should be compared as strings.
Now the Item_func::eq() function employs my_strcasecmp() function to compare
used-defined stored functions names.
away.
During optimization stage the WHERE conditions can be changed or even
be removed at all if they know for sure to be true of false. Thus they aren't
showed in the EXPLAIN EXTENDED which prints conditions after optimization.
Now if all elements of an Item_cond were removed this Item_cond is substituted
for an Item_int with the int value of the Item_cond.
If there were conditions that were totally optimized away then values of the
saved cond_value and having_value will be printed instead.
DATE/DATETIME values are out of the currently supported
4 basic value types (INT,STRING,REAL and DECIMAL).
So expressions (not fields) of compile type DATE/DATETIME are
generally considered as STRING values. This is not so
when they are compared : then they are compared as
INTEGER values.
But the rule for comparison as INTEGERS must be checked
explicitly each time when a comparison is to be performed.
filesort is one such place. However there the check was
not done and hence the expressions (not fields) of type
DATE/DATETIME were sorted by their string representation.
Fixed to compare them as INTEGER values for filesort.
Functions over sum functions wasn't set up correctly for the ORDER BY clause
which leads to a wrong order of the result set.
The split_sum_func() function is called now for each ORDER BY item that
contains a sum function to set it up correctly.

This fix resolves a long standing issue originally reported with bug 8407,
which affect the behavior of Stored Procedures, Stored Functions and Trigger
in many different ways, causing symptoms reported by all the bugs listed.
In all cases, the root cause of the problem traces back to 8407 and how the
server locks tables involved with sub statements.
Prior to this fix, the implementation of stored routines would:
- compute the transitive closure of all the tables referenced by a top level
statement
- open and lock all the tables involved
- execute the top level statement
"transitive closure of tables" means collecting:
- all the tables,
- all the stored functions,
- all the views,
- all the table triggers
- all the stored procedures
involved, and recursively inspect these objects definition to find more
references to more objects, until the list of every object referenced does
not grow any more.
This mechanism is known as "pre-locking" tables before execution.
The motivation for locking all the tables (possibly) used at once is to
prevent dead locks.
One problem with this approach is that, if the execution path the code
really takes during runtime does not use a given table, and if the table is
missing, the server would not execute the statement.
This in particular has a major impact on triggers, since a missing table
referenced by an update/delete trigger would prevent an insert trigger to run.
Another problem is that stored routines might define SQL exception handlers
to deal with missing tables, but the server implementation would never give
user code a chance to execute this logic, since the routine is never
executed when a missing table cause the pre-locking code to fail.
With this fix, the internal implementation of the pre-locking code has been
relaxed of some constraints, so that failure to open a table does not
necessarily prevent execution of a stored routine.
In particular, the pre-locking mechanism is now behaving as follows:
1) the first step, to compute the transitive closure of all the tables
possibly referenced by a statement, is unchanged.
2) the next step, which is to open all the tables involved, only attempts
to open the tables added by the pre-locking code, but silently fails without
reporting any error or invoking any exception handler is the table is not
present. This is achieved by trapping internal errors with
Prelock_error_handler
3) the locking step only locks tables that were successfully opened.
4) when executing sub statements, the list of tables used by each statements
is evaluated as before. The tables needed by the sub statement are expected
to be already opened and locked. Statement referencing tables that were not
opened in step 2) will fail to find the table in the open list, and only at
this point will execution of the user code fail.
5) when a runtime exception is raised at 4), the instruction continuation
destination (the next instruction to execute in case of SQL continue
handlers) is evaluated.
This is achieved with sp_instr::exec_open_and_lock_tables()
6) if a user exception handler is present in the stored routine, that
handler is invoked as usual, so that ER_NO_SUCH_TABLE exceptions can be
trapped by stored routines. If no handler exists, then the runtime execution
will fail as expected.
With all these changes, a side effect is that view security is impacted, in
two different ways.
First, a view defined as "select stored_function()", where the stored
function references a table that may not exist, is considered valid.
The rationale is that, because the stored function might trap exceptions
during execution and still return a valid result, there is no way to decide
when the view is created if a missing table really cause the view to be invalid.
Secondly, testing for existence of tables is now done later during
execution. View security, which consist of trapping errors and return a
generic ER_VIEW_INVALID (to prevent disclosing information) was only
implemented at very specific phases covering *opening* tables, but not
covering the runtime execution. Because of this existing limitation,
errors that were previously trapped and converted into ER_VIEW_INVALID are
not trapped, causing table names to be reported to the user.
This change is exposing an existing problem, which is independent and will
be resolved separately.
Using INSERT DELAYED on MERGE tables could lead to table
corruptions.
The manual lists a couple of storage engines, which can be
used with INSERT DELAYED. MERGE is not in this list.
The attempt to try it anyway has not been rejected yet.
This bug was not detected earlier as it can work under
special circumstances. Most notable is low concurrency.
To be safe, this patch rejects any attempt to use INSERT
DELAYED on MERGE tables.
- Add test case that shows how slave server hangs in "STOP SLAVE"
when run on MySQL version 5.0.33 compiled with OpenSSL.
Works fine with latest version of MySQL since that problem
has been fixed by patch for bug#24148. The fix has been noted in
the changelog for MySQL 5.0.36
The flag alias_name_used was not set on for the outer references
in subqueries. It resulted in replacement of any outer reference
resolved against an alias for a full field name when the frm
representation of a view with a subquery was generated.
If the subquery and the outer query referenced the same table in
their from lists this replacement effectively changed the meaning
of the view and led to wrong results for selects from this view.
Modified several functions to ensure setting the right value of
the alias_name_used flag for outer references resolved against
aliases.
When the ORDER BY clause gets fixed it's allowed to search in the current
item_list in order to find aliased fields and expressions. This is ok for a
SELECT but wrong for an UPDATE statement. If the ORDER BY clause will
contain a non-existing field which is mentioned in the UPDATE set list
then the server will crash due to using of non-existing (0x0) field.
When an Item_field is getting fixed it's allowed to search item list for
aliased expressions and fields only for selects.
Several problems here :
1. The conversion to double of an hex string const item
was not taking into account the unsigned flag.
2. IN was not behaving in the same was way as comparisons
when performed over an INT/DATE/DATETIME/TIMESTAMP column
and a constant. The ordinary comparisons in that case
convert the constant to an INTEGER value and do int
comparisons. Fixed the IN to do the same.
3. IN is not taking into account the unsigned flag when
calculating <expr> IN (<int_const1>, <int_const2>, ...).
Extended the implementation of IN to store and process
the unsigned flag for its arguments.
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).
to return NULL for non-NULL arguments.
This is not the case as it can return NULL
for invalid hexidecimal strings.
Fixed by setting the maybe_null flag.

Before this fix, the function BENCHMARK() would fail to evaluate expressions
like "(select avg(a) from t1)" in debug builds (with an assert),
or would report a time of zero in non debug builds.
The root cause is that evaluation of DECIMAL_RESULT expressions was not
supported in Item_func_benchmark::val_int().
This has been fixed by this change.
