When a table status is requested by statement like SHOW TABLE
STATUS and there is another statement (e.g. DELETE) sets
number of records to 0 concurrently, we may get division by
zero error, which crashes a server.
This is fixed by using thread local variable x->records instead
of shared info->state->records when we check if it is zero and
divide by it.
Problem: single byte do_varstring1() function was called, which didn't
check limit on "number of character", and checked only "number of bytes".
Fix: adding a multi-byte aware function do_varstring1_mb(),
to limit on "number of characters"
IGNORE/USE/FORCE INDEX hints were honored when choosing FULLTEXT
index.
With this fix these hints are ignored. For regular indexes we may
perform table scan instead of index lookup when IGNORE INDEX was
specified. We cannot do this for FULLTEXT in NLQ mode.
Support of views wasn't implemented for the TRUNCATE statement.
Now TRUNCATE on views has the same semantics as DELETE FROM view:
mysql_truncate() checks whether the table is a view and falls back
to delete if so.
In order to initialize properly the LEX::updatable for a view
st_lex::can_use_merged() now allows usage of merged views for the
TRUNCATE statement.
are used as arguments of the IN predicate.
Added a function to check compatibility of row expressions. Made sure that this
function to be called for Item_func_in objects by fix_length_and_dec().
The function CRC32() returns unsigned integer.
But the metadata (the unsigned flag) for the
function was set incorrectly.
As a result type arithmetics based on the
function's metadata (like finding the concise
type of an temporary table column to hold the result)
returned incorrect results.
Fixed by returning correct type information.
This fix is based on code contributed by Martin Friebe
(martin@hybyte.com) on 2007-03-30.
MERGE engine may return incorrect values when several representations
of equal keys are present in the index. For example "groß" and "gross"
or "gross" and "gross " (trailing space), which are considered equal,
but have different lengths.
The problem was that key length was not recalculated after key lookup.
Only MERGE engine is affected.
Added a test case.
The problem was fixed by the fix for bug #17379.
The problem was that because of some conditions
the optimizer always preferred range or full index
scan access methods to lookup access methods even
when the latter were much cheaper.
The optimizer transforms DISTINCT into a GROUP BY
when possible.
It does that by constructing the same structure
(a list of ORDER instances) the parser makes when
parsing GROUP BY.
While doing that it also eliminates duplicates.
But if a duplicate is found it doesn't advance the
pointer to ref_pointer array, so the next
(and subsequent) ORDER structures point to the wrong
element in the SELECT list.
Fixed by advancing the pointer in ref_pointer_array
even in the case of a duplicate.
Problem: setting/displaying @@LC_TIME_NAMES didn't distinguish between
GLOBAL and SESSION variable types - always SESSION variable
was set/shonw.
Fix: set either global or session value.
Also, "mysqld --lc-time-names" was added to set "global default" value.
