It was hard to distinguish case, when one was unable to create trigger
on the table because trigger with same action time and event already
existed for this table, from the case, when one tried to create trigger
with name which was already occupied by some other trigger, since in
both these cases we emitted ER_TRG_ALREADY_EXISTS error and message.
Now we emit ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_YET error with appropriate additional
message in the first case. There is no sense in introducing separate
error for this situation since we plan to get rid of this limitation
eventually.
sp_grant_privileges(), the function that GRANTs EXECUTE + ALTER privs on a SP,
did so creating a user-entry with not password; mysql_routine_grant() would then
write that "change" to the user-table.
Bug #18361: Triggers on mysql.user table cause server crash
Because they do not work, we do not allow creating triggers on tables
within the 'mysql' schema.
(They may be made to work and re-enabled at some later date, but not
in 5.0 or 5.1.)
The problem was that we restored SQL_CACHE, SQL_NO_CACHE flags in SELECT
statement from internal structures based on value set later at runtime, not
the original value set by the user.
The solution is to remember that original value.
Produce a warning if DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY is specified in
ALTER TABLE statement.
Ignoring of these options is documented in the symbolic links
section of the manual.
'SELECT DISTINCT a,b FROM t1' should not use temp table if there is unique
index (or primary key) on a.
There are a number of other similar cases that can be calculated without the
use of a temp table : multi-part unique indexes, primary keys or using GROUP BY
instead of DISTINCT.
When a GROUP BY/DISTINCT clause contains all key parts of a unique
index, then it is guaranteed that the fields of the clause will be
unique, therefore we can optimize away GROUP BY/DISTINCT altogether.
This optimization has two effects:
* there is no need to create a temporary table to compute the
GROUP/DISTINCT operation (or the temporary table will be smaller if only GROUP
is removed and DISTINCT stays or if DISTINCT is removed and GROUP BY stays)
* this causes the statement in effect to become updatable in Connector/Java
because the result set columns will be direct reference to the primary key of
the table (instead to the temporary table that it currently references).
Implemented a check that will optimize away GROUP BY/DISTINCT for queries like
the above.
Currently it will work only for single non-constant table in the FROM clause.
Bug#19022 "Memory bug when switching db during trigger execution"
Bug#17199 "Problem when view calls function from another database."
Bug#18444 "Fully qualified stored function names don't work correctly in
SELECT statements"
Documentation note: this patch introduces a change in behaviour of prepared
statements.
This patch adds a few new invariants with regard to how THD::db should
be used. These invariants should be preserved in future:
- one should never refer to THD::db by pointer and always make a deep copy
(strmake, strdup)
- one should never compare two databases by pointer, but use strncmp or
my_strncasecmp
- TABLE_LIST object table->db should be always initialized in the parser or
by creator of the object.
For prepared statements it means that if the current database is changed
after a statement is prepared, the database that was current at prepare
remains active. This also means that you can not prepare a statement that
implicitly refers to the current database if the latter is not set.
This is not documented, and therefore needs documentation. This is NOT a
change in behavior for almost all SQL statements except:
- ALTER TABLE t1 RENAME t2
- OPTIMIZE TABLE t1
- ANALYZE TABLE t1
- TRUNCATE TABLE t1 --
until this patch t1 or t2 could be evaluated at the first execution of
prepared statement.
CURRENT_DATABASE() still works OK and is evaluated at every execution
of prepared statement.
Note, that in stored routines this is not an issue as the default
database is the database of the stored procedure and "use" statement
is prohibited in stored routines.
This patch makes obsolete the use of check_db_used (it was never used in the
old code too) and all other places that check for table->db and assign it
from THD::db if it's NULL, except the parser.
How this patch was created: THD::{db,db_length} were replaced with a
LEX_STRING, THD::db. All the places that refer to THD::{db,db_length} were
manually checked and:
- if the place uses thd->db by pointer, it was fixed to make a deep copy
- if a place compared two db pointers, it was fixed to compare them by value
(via strcmp/my_strcasecmp, whatever was approproate)
Then this intermediate patch was used to write a smaller patch that does the
same thing but without a rename.
TODO in 5.1:
- remove check_db_used
- deploy THD::set_db in mysql_change_db

Addendum fixes after changing the condition variable
for the global read lock.
The stress test suite revealed some deadlocks. Some were
related to the new condition variable (COND_global_read_lock)
and some were general problems with the global read lock.
It is now necessary to signal COND_global_read_lock whenever
COND_refresh is signalled.
We need to wait for the release of a global read lock if one
is set before every operation that requires a write lock.
But we must not wait if we have locked tables by LOCK TABLES.
After setting a global read lock a thread waits until all
write locks are released.
Problem:
mysqld --collation-server=xxx --character-set-server=yyy
didn't work as expected: collation_server was set not to xxx,
but to the default collation of character set "yyy".
With different argument order it worked as expected:
mysqld --character-set-server=yyy --collation-server=yyy
Fix:
initializate default_collation_name to 0
when processing --character-set-server
only if --collation-server has not been specified
in command line.
