PROCEDURE RESULTS IN GARBAGE BYTES
Issue:
-----
This problem occurs under the following conditions:
a) Stored procedure has a variable is declared as TEXT/BLOB.
b) Data is copied into the the variable using the
SELECT...INTO syntax from a TEXT/BLOB column.
Data corruption can occur in such cases.
SOLUTION:
---------
The blob type does not allocate space for the string to be
stored. Instead it contains a pointer to the source string.
Since the source is deallocated immediately after the
select statement, this can cause data corruption.
As part of the fix for Bug #21143080, when the source was
part of the table's write-set, blob would allocate the
neccessary space. But this fix missed the possibility that,
as in the above case, the target might be a variable.
The fix will add the copy_blobs check that was removed by
the earlier fix.
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.
Cleanup: remove TIME_FUZZY_DATE.
Introduce TIME_FUZZY_DATES which means "very fuzzy, the resulting
value is only used for comparison. It can be invalid date, fine, as long as it can be
compared".
Updated many tests results (they're better now).
The class Copy_field contains a String tmp,
which may allocate memory on the heap.
That means that all instances of Copy_field
must be properly destroyed. Alas they are not.
Solution: don't use Copy_field::tmp for copying
from_field => tmp => to_field
in do_field_string()
sql/field.cc:
In Field_set::val_str
return empty string (of appropriate character set) for an empty set.
sql/field.h:
New private member in Field_enum: empty_set_string.
sql/field_conv.cc:
In do_field_string, use an auto variable for copying
from_field => tmp => to_field
rather than copy->tmp.

The result of materialization of the right part of an IN subquery predicate
is placed into a temporary table. Each row of the materialized table is
distinct. A unique key over all fields of the temporary table is defined and
created. It allows to perform key look-ups into the table.
The table created for a materialized subquery can be accessed by key as
any other table. The function best_access-path search for the best access
to join a table to a given partial join. With some where conditions this
function considers a possibility of a ref_or_null access. If such access
employs the unique key on the temporary table then when estimating
the cost this access the function tries to use the array rec_per_key. Yet,
such array is not built for this unique key. This causes a crash of the server.
Rows returned by the subquery that contain nulls don't have to be placed
into temporary table, as they cannot be match any row produced by the
left part of the subquery predicate. So all fields of the temporary table
can be defined as non-nullable. In this case any ref_or_null access
to the temporary table does not make any sense and it does not make sense
to estimate such an access.
The fix makes sure that the temporary table for a materialized IN subquery
is defined with columns that are all non-nullable. The also ensures that
any row with nulls returned by the subquery is not placed into the
temporary table.
- Create/use do_copy_nullable_row_to_notnull() function for ref access, which is used
when copying from not-NULL field in table that can be NULL-complemented to not-NULL field.

opt_range.cc: modified print_key() so that it doesn't do memory re-allocs when
printing multipart keys over varchar columns. When it did, key printout in
debug trace was interrupted with my_malloc/free printouts.
