RAND() must accept scalar expressions regardless of their kind.
That includes both constant expressions and expressions that
depend on column values.
When the expression is constant the random seed can be initialized
at compile time.
However when the expression is not constant the random seed must be
initialized at each invocation (while it still can be allocated at
compile time).
Implemented the above rules by extending Item_func_rand::val_real()
to initialize the random seed at the correct place.
st_table::const_key_parts member is used in determining if
certain key has a prefix that is compared to constant(s) in
the query predicates.
If there's such prefix the index can be used to get the data
from the remaining suffix columns in sorted order.
However if a field is compared to another field from a "const"
table the const_key_parts is not amended.
This makes the optimizer unable to detect that the key can be
used for sorting and adds an extra filesort.
Fixed by updating const_key_parts after reading in the "const"
table.
Subselect's engine checks table->status field to determine if the
record was properly found when we use keyread upon the table.
Partition engine checks all the partitions for given key
before return. So if matching record was found in the first
partition and no matching records were found in the second,
we have table->status == NOT_FOUND after the function, what
makes subselects to skip matching records.
The patch adds table->status= 0 if we actually found something.
aliases ignored
When a column reference to a column in JOIN USING is resolved and a new
Item is created for this column the user defined name was lost.
This fix preserves the alias by setting the name of the new Item to the
original alias.
In the method Item_field::fix_fields we try to resolve the name of
the field against the names of the aliases that occur in the select
list. This is done by a call of the function find_item_in_list.
When this function finds several occurrences of the field name
it sends an error message to the error queue and returns 0.
Yet the code did not take into account that find_item_in_list
could return 0 and tried to dereference the returned value.
- configure --disable-grant-options defines DISABLE_GRANT_OPTIONS
- configure.js/cmake also updated
- if DISABLE_GRANT_OPTIONS is defined, mysqld no longer recognizes:
--bootstrap
--init-file
--skip-grant-tables
Scripts which rely on those three options are modified to check the environment for MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP; it should be set to the full path of a mysqld which does handle those options.
For example:
$ export MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP
$ MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP=/path/to/full/MySQL/bin/mysqld
$ mysql_install_db
$ make test
used.
The Item::save_in_field() function is called from fill_record() to fill the
new row with data while execution of the CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement.
Item::save_in_field() calls val_xxx() methods in order to get values.
val_xxx() methods do not take into account the result field. Due to this
Item_func_set_user_var::val_xxx() methods returns values from the original
table, not from the temporary one.
The save_in_field() member function is added to the Item_func_set_user_var
class. It detects whether the result field should be used and properly updates
the value of the user variable.
A BINARY field is represented by the Field_string class. The space character
is used as the filler for unused characters in such a field. But a BINARY field
should use \x00 instead.
Field_string:reset() now detects whether the current field is a BINARY one
and if so uses the \x00 character as a default value filler.
