Fixed some possible fatal wrong arguments to printf() style functions
Initialized some not initialized variables
Fixed bug in stored procedure and continue handlers
(Fixes Bug#22150)
This is a performance issue for queries with subqueries evaluation
of which requires filesort.
Allocation of memory for the sort buffer at each evaluation of a
subquery may take a significant amount of time if the buffer is rather big.
With the fix we allocate the buffer at the first evaluation of the
subquery and reuse it at each subsequent evaluation.
We miss some records sometimes using RANGE method if we have
partial key segments.
Example:
Create table t1(a char(2), key(a(1)));
insert into t1 values ('a'), ('xx');
select a from t1 where a > 'x';
We call index_read() passing 'x' key and HA_READ_AFTER_KEY flag
in the handler::read_range_first() wich is wrong because we have
a partial key segment for the field and might miss records like 'xx'.
Fix: don't use open segments in such a case.
Bug #21785 "Server crashes after rename of the log table" and
Bug #21966 "Strange warnings on create like/repair of the log
tables"
According to the patch, from now on, one should use RENAME to
perform a log table rotation (this should also be reflected in
the manual).
Here is a sample:
use mysql;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log2 LIKE general_log;
RENAME TABLE general_log TO general_log_backup, general_log2 TO general_log;
The rules for Rename of the log tables are following:
IF 1. Log tables are enabled
AND 2. Rename operates on the log table and nothing is being
renamed to the log table.
DO 3. Throw an error message.
ELSE 4. Perform rename.
The very RENAME query will go the the old (backup) table. This is
consistent with the behavoiur we have with binlog ROTATE LOGS
statement.
Other problems, which are solved by the patch are:
1) Now REPAIR of the log table is exclusive operation (as it should be), this
also eliminates lock-related warnings. and
2) CREATE LIKE TABLE now usese usual read lock on the source table rather
then name lock, which is too restrictive. This way we get rid of another
log table-related warning, which occured because of the above fact
(as a side-effect, name lock resulted in a warning).
We use the condition from CHECK OPTION twice handling UPDATE command.
First we construnct 'update_cond' AND 'option_cond'
condition to select records to be updated, then we check the
'option_cond' for the updated row.
The problem is that first 'AND' condition is optimized during the 'select'
which can break 'option_cond' structure, so it will be unusable for
the sectond use - to check the updated row.
Possible soultion is either use copy of the condition in the first
use or to make optimization less traumatic for the operands.
I picked the first one.
Fixed confusing error message from the storage engine when
it fails to open underlying table. The error message is issued
when a table is _opened_ (not when it is created).
In practice this means that handlerton is now created by the server and is passed to the engine. Plugin startups can now also control how plugins are inited (and can optionally pass values). Bit more flexibility to those who want to write plugin interfaces to the database.
0xFF is internal separator for SET|ENUM names.
If this symbol is present in SET|ENUM names then we replace it with
','(deprecated symbol for SET|ENUM names) during frm creation
and restore to 0xFF during frm opening
from cache" and #21216 "Simultaneous DROP TABLE and SHOW OPEN TABLES causes
server to crash".
Crash happened when one ran DROP DATABASE or SHOW OPEN TABLES statements
while concurrently doing DROP TABLE (or RENAME TABLE, CREATE TABLE LIKE
or any other command that takes name-lock) in other connection.
This problem was caused by the fact that table placeholders which were
added to table cache in order to obtain name-lock on table had
TABLE_SHARE::db and table_name set to 0. Therefore they broke assumption
that these members are non-0 for all tables in table cache on which some
of our code relies.
The fix sets these members for such placeholders to appropriate value making
this assumption true again. As attempt to avoid such problems in future
we introduce auxiliary TABLE_SHARE::set_table_cache_key() methods which
should be used when one wants to set TABLE_SHARE::table_cache_key and which
ensure that TABLE_SHARE::table_name/db are set properly.
Test cases for these bugs were added to 5.0 test-suite (with 5.0-specific
fix for bug #21216).
