on table creates
The problem was in incompatible syntax for key definition in CREATE
TABLE.
5.0 supports only the following syntax for key definition (see "CREATE
TABLE syntax" in the manual):
{INDEX|KEY} [index_name] [index_type] (index_col_name,...)
While 5.1 parser supports the above syntax, the "preferred" syntax was
changed to:
{INDEX|KEY} [index_name] (index_col_name,...) [index_type]
The above syntax is used in 5.1 for the SHOW CREATE TABLE output, which
led to dumps generated by 5.1 being incompatible with 5.0.
Fixed by changing the parser in 5.0 to support both 5.0 and 5.1 syntax
for key definition.
Simple subselects are pulled into upper selects. This operation substitutes the
pulled subselect for the first item from the select list of the subselect.
If an alias is defined for a subselect it is inherited by the replacement item.
As this is done after fix_fields phase this alias isn't showed if the
replacement item is a stored function. This happens because the Item_func_sp::make_field
function makes send field from its result_field and ignores the defined alias.
Now when an alias is defined the Item_func_sp::make_field function sets it for
the returned field.
The error message due to lack of the default value for an extra field
was not as informative as it should be.
Fixed with improving the scheme of gathering, propagating and reporting
errors in applying rows events.
The scheme is in the following.
Any kind of error of processing of a row event incidents are to be
registered with my_error().
In the end Rows_log_event::do_apply_event() invokes rli->report() with the
message to display consisting of all the errors.
This mimics `show warnings' displaying.
A simple test checks three errors in processing an event.
Two hunks - a user level error and pushing it into the list -
have been devoted to already fixed Bug@31702.
Some open issues relating to this artifact listed on BUG@21842 page and
on WL@3679.
Todo: to synchronize the statement in the tests comments on Update and Delete
events may not stop when an extra field does not have a default with wl@3228 spec.
pre-locking.
The crash was caused by an implicit assumption in check_table_access() that
table_list parameter is always a part of lex->query_tables.
When iterating over the passed list of tables, check_table_access() used
to stop only when lex->query_tables_last_not_own was reached.
In case of pre-locking, lex->query_tables_last_own is not NULL and points
to some element of lex->query_tables. When the parameter
of check_table_access() was not part of lex->query_tables, loop invariant
could never be violated and a crash would happen when the current table
pointer would point beyond the end of the provided list.
The fix is to change the signature of check_table_access() to also accept
a numeric limit of loop iterations, similarly to check_grant(), and
supply this limit in all places when we want to check access of tables
that are outside lex->query_tables, or just want to check access to one table.
Main problem: mysql 5.1 cannot read binlogs from 4.1.
Subproblem 1: There is a mistake in sql_ex_info::init. The read_str()
function updates its first argument to point to the next character to
read. However, it is applied only to a copy of the buffer pointer, so the
real buffer pointer is not updated.
Fix 1: do not take a copy of the buffer pointer. The copy was needed
because sql_ex_info::init does not use the const attribute on some of its
arguments. So we add the const attribute, too.
Subproblem 2: The first BINLOG statement is asserted to be a
FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_LOG_EVENT, but 4.1 binlogs begin with START_EVENT_V3.
Fix 2: allow START_EVENT_V3 too.
Problem: When slave reads format_description_log_event, it checks if the
master is a version that uses an old binlog format. See also BUG#27779.
Not all possible server_versions were listed.
Fix: Check for all server_versions which use the old binlog_format.
