This actually, fix for the patch for bug-27354. The problem with
the patch was that Item_func_sp::used_tables() was updated, but
Item_func_sp::const_item() was not. So, for Item_func_sp, we had
the following inconsistency:
- used_tables() returned RAND_TABLE, which means that the item
can produce "random" results;
- but const_item() returned TRUE, which means that the item is
a constant one.
The fix is to change Item_func_sp::const_item() behaviour: it must
return TRUE (an item is a constant one) only if a stored function
is deterministic and each of its arguments (if any) is a constant
item.
Bug#28878: InnoDB tables with UTF8 character set and indexes cause wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20) must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer. This is what Field_string::store() does. Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.
were accidentally removed during a previous rototill of this
code. Fixes bug#27692.
While it can be argued we should strive to provide a 'secure by
default' installation, this happens to be the setup currently
documented in the manual as the default, so defer changes that
improve security out of the box to a co-ordinated effort later
on.
For now, make a note about the test databases and anonymous user
in mysql_install_db and recommend that mysql_secure_installation
be ran for users wishing to remove these defaults.

This is for bug #29446 "Specifying a myisam_sort_buffer > 4GB on 64 bit machines not possible". Support for myisam_sort_buffer_size > 4 GB on 64-bit Windows will be looked at later in 5.2.
The function str_to_date has a field to say whether it's invoked constant
arguments. But this member was not initialized, causing the function to
think that it could use a cache of the format type when said cache was in
fact not initialized.
Fixed by initializing the field to false.
We use get_geometry_type() call to decide the exact type
of a geometry field to be created (POINT, POLYGON etc)
Though this function was only implemented for few items.
In the bug's case we need to call this function for the
Item_sum instance, where it was not implemented, what is
the reason of the crash.
Fixed by implementing virtual Item::get_geometry_type(),
so it can be called for any Item.
The combination of --single-transaction and --master-data requires
START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT which is available from
mysqld 4.1 on. When trying this against an older server, print
diagnostic, then, if --force is not given, abort.
No test-case given since it would require a mysqld < 4.1.
and for bug #31070: crash during conversion of charsets
Problem: passing a 0 byte length string to some my_mb_wc_XXX()
functions leads to server crash due to improper argument check.
Fix: properly check arguments passed to my_mb_wc_XXX() functions.
It's not possible to use WaitForSingleObject to wait
on a CRITICAL_SECTION, instead use the TryEnterCriticalSection function.
- if "mutex" was already taken => return EBUSY
- if "mutex" was aquired => return 0
Add --skip-innodb-adaptive-hash-index option, which is a way to
work around the bug (by disabling the adaptive hash feature entirely).
This may be useful even once the bug is fixed, for benchmarking purposes.
There are some workloads for which the adaptive hash index is not effective.
The Item_func_rollup_const class is used for wrapping constants to avoid
wrong result for ROLLUP queries with DISTINCT and a constant in the select
list. This class is also used to wrap up a NULL constant but its null_value
wasn't set accordingly. This led to a server crash.
Now the null_value of an object of the Item_func_rollup_const class is set
by its fix_length_and_dec member function.
mysqldump adds the "-- Dump completed on YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss" string
to the end of output if the --comments switch is on.
The only way to suppress this line is to use --skip-comments/--compact
switch.
New switch has been added to the mysqldump client command line:
--dump-date.
For the compatibility with previous releases, by default the --dump-date
is on.
The --dump-date switch forces mysqldump to add date to the
"-- Dump completed on ..." string at the end of output.
The --skip-dump-date switch supresses the output of date string
and uses short form of that commentary: "-- Dump completed".
--skip-comments or --compact switches disable the whole commentary
as usual.
