Issue:
-----
When a varchar column is used to fill the record in an
internal temporary table, the length of the string stored
in the column is not taken into account. Instead the
default length of packed data is used to copy with memmove.
This will cause valgrind issues since some bytes are
uninitialized.
SOLUTION:
---------
The solution is to take into account the length of the
string stored in the column while filling the record.
This fix is a backport of BUG#13389854.
INCORRECT RESULTS
Issue:
-----
Updating varchar and text fields in the same update
statement can produce incorrect results. When a varchar
field is assigned to the text field and the varchar field
is then set to a different value, the text field's result
contains the varchar field's new value.
SOLUTION:
---------
Currently the blob type does not allocate space for the
string to be stored. Instead it contains a pointer to the
varchar string. So when the varchar field is changed as
part of the update statement, the value contained in the
blob also changes.
The fix would be to actually store the value by allocating
space for the blob's string. We can avoid allocating this
space when the varchar field is not being written into.
Fhe GEOMETRY field should be handled just as the BLOB field. So that was fiexed in field_conv.
One additional bug was found and fixed meanwhile - thet the geometry field subtypes
should also be merged for UNION command.
If the spatial key is used within an equality comparison, the comparison
does not produce relevant results generally as identical geometry can be
stored differently. Still, we want to support the operation. In order
to allow a hash join plan, we must define a key_length for Field_geom.
This is port of fix for MySQL BUG#17647863.

Bug#17647863: MYSQL DOES NOT COMPILE ON OSX 10.9 GM
Rename test() macro to MY_TEST() to avoid conflict with libc++.
(MYSQLBINLOG -V CRASHES WITH THAT BINLOG)
Problem: If slave receives a corrupted row event,
slave server is crashing.
Analysis: When slave is unpacking the row event, it is
not validating the data before applying the event. If the
data is corrupted for eg: the length of a field is wrong,
it could end up reading wrong data leading to a crash.
A similar problem happens when mysqlbinlog tool is used
against a corrupted binlog using '-v' option. Due to -v
option, the tool tries to print the values of all the
fields. Corrupted field length could lead to a crash.
Fix: Before unpacking the field, a verification
will be made on the length. If it falls into the event
range, only then it will be unpacked. Otherwise,
"ER_SLAVE_CORRUPT_EVENT" error will be thrown.
Incase mysqlbinlog -v case, the field value will not be
printed and the processing of the file will be stopped.
sql/field.h:
Removed a function which is not required anymore
sql/log_event.cc:
Adding a validation on the field length before
the tool tries to print the value.
sql/log_event.h:
Changing unpack_row call according to the new arguments
sql/log_event_old.h:
Changing unpack_row call according to the new arguments
sql/rpl_record.cc:
Adding a new argument 'row_end' which tells
the end position of the complete data in the
row event. It will be used to do validation
before doing 'unpack' field.
sql/rpl_record.h:
Adding a new argument 'row_end' which tells
the end position of the complete data in the
row event. It will be used to do validation
before doing 'unpack' field.
sql/rpl_utility.cc:
Now calc_field_size() is required for client too.
