When creating a temporary table that uses the same name as the mysql
privs table the server would crash on FLUSH PRIVILEGES.
This patches corrects the problem by setting a flag to ignore any
temporary table when trying to reload the privileges.
localhost/default port
When creating federated table that points to unspecified host or
localhost on unspecified port or port is 0, small memory leak occurs.
This happens because we make a copy of unix socket path, which is
never freed.
With this fix we do not make a copy of unix socket path, instead
share->socket points to MYSQL_UNIX_ADDR constant directly.
This fix is covered by a test case for BUG34788.
Affects 5.0 only.
for YEAR data type.
The problem was that for some unknown reason 0 was not allowed
as a default value for YEAR data type. That was coded before BK.
However the Manual does not say a word about such a limitation.
Also, it looks inconsistent with other data types.
The fix is to allow 0 as a default value.
correctly - crashes server !
Creating federated table with connect string containing empty
(zero-length) host name and port is evaluated as 0 (port is
incorrect, omitted or 0) crashes server.
This happens because federated calls strcmp() with NULL pointer.
Fixed by avoiding strcmp() call if hostname is set to NULL.
The problem was in a test case for Bug33507:
- when the number of active connections reaches the limit,
the server accepts only root connections. That's achieved by
accepting a connection, negotiating with the client and
checking user credentials. If it is not SUPER, the connection
is dropped.
- when the server accepts connection, it increases the counter;
- when the server drops connection, it decreases the counter;
- the race was in between of decreasing the counter and accepting
new connection:
- max_user_connections = 2;
- 2 oridinary user connections accepted;
- extra user connection is establishing;
- server checked user credentials, and sent 'Too many connections'
error;
- the client receives the error and establishes extra SUPER user
connection;
- the server however didn't decrease the counter (the extra
user connection still is "alive" in the server) -- so, the new
SUPER-user connection, will be dropped, because it exceeds
(max_user_connections + 1).
The fix is to implement "safe connect", which makes several attempts
to connect and use it in the test script.
When there are no underlying tables specified for a merge table,
SHOW CREATE TABLE outputs a statement that cannot be executed. The
same is true for mysqldump (it generates dumps that cannot be
executed).
This happens because SQL parser does not accept empty UNION() clause.
This patch changes the following:
- it is now possible to execute CREATE/ALTER statement with
empty UNION() clause.
- the same as above, but still worth noting: it is now possible to
remove underlying tables mapping using ALTER TABLE ... UNION=().
- SHOW CREATE TABLE does not output UNION() clause if there are
no underlying tables specified for a merge table. This makes
mysqldump slightly smaller.
