Problem:
There was a wrong context assigned to the columns that were added in insert_fields()
when expanding a '*'. When this is done in a prepared statement it causes
fix_fields() to fail to find the table that these columns reference.
Actually the right context is set in setup_natural_join_row_types() called at the
end of setup_tables(). However when executed in a context of a prepared statement
setup_tables() resets the context, but setup_natural_join_row_types() was not
setting it to the correct value assuming it has already done so.
Solution:
The top-most, left-most NATURAL/USING join must be set as a
first_name_resolution_table in context even when operating on prepared statements.
The cause of this bug was a design flaw due to which the list of natural
join columns was incorrectly computed and stored for nested joins that
are not natural joins, but are operands (possibly indirect) of nested joins.
The patch corrects the flaw in a such a way, that the result columns of a
table reference are materialized only if it is a leaf table (that is, only
if it is a view, stored table, or natural/using join).
The cause of the bug was an ASSERT that checked the consistency
of TABLE_SHARE::db and TABLE_LIST::db and failed for I_S tables.
The fix relaxes the requirement for consistency for I_S.
* Provide backwards compatibility extension to name resolution of
coalesced columns. The patch allows such columns to be qualified
with a table (and db) name, as it is in 4.1.
Based on a patch from Monty.
* Adjusted tests accordingly to test both backwards compatible name
resolution of qualified columns, and ANSI-style resolution of
non-qualified columns.
For this, each affected test has two versions - one with qualified
columns, and one without.
- Corrected problem with N-way nested natural joins in PS mode.
- Code cleanup
- More asserts to check consistency of name resolution contexts
- Fixed potential memory leak of name resolution contexts
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
Fix for LEFT/RIGHT/MID with multi-byte-character sets (bug 314)
Fix for new bison 1.875
max_insert_delayed_threads and delayed_insert_timeout now works as documented (bug 211)
Don't show port in SHOW PROCESSLIST for system threads
Fix problem with ORDER BY being discarded for some DISTINCT queries (bug 275)
Fixed bug with NATURAL LEFT JOIN, NATURAL RIGHT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN when
using many joined tables (Bug 212)
Added ALL as parameter option for all group functions.
Make join handling uniform. This allows us to use ',', JOIN and INNER JOIN the same way.
Sort NULL last if DESC is used (ANSI SQL 99 requirement)
