Both arguments of the function NAME_CONST must be constant expressions.
This constraint is checked in the Item_name_const::fix_fields method.
Yet if the argument of the function was not a constant expression no
error message was reported. As a result the client hanged waiting for a
response.
Now the function Item_name_const::fix_fields reports an error message
when any of the additional context conditions imposed on the function
NAME_CONST is not satisfied.
The index (key_part_1, key_part-2) was erroneously considered as compatible
with the required ordering in the function test_test_if_order_by_key when
a query with an ORDER BY clause contained a condition of the form
key_part_1=const OR key_part_1 IS NULL
and the order list contained only key_part_2. This happened because the value
of the const_key_parts field in the KEYUSE structure was not formed correctly
for the keys that could be used for ref_or_null access.
This was fixed in the code of the update_ref_and_keys function.
The problem could not manifest itself for MyISAM databases because the
implementation of the keys_to_use_for_scanning() handler function always
returns an empty bitmap for the MyISAM engine.
When read_only option was enabled, a user without SUPER privilege could
perform CREATE DATABASE and DROP DATABASE operations.
This patch adds a check to make sure this isn't possible. It also attempts to
simplify the logic used to determine if relevant tables are updated,
making it more human readable.
Anti-patch. This patch undoes the previously pushed patch. It is
null-merged in versions 5.1 and above since there the original
patch is still desired.
numbers into char fields" and bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of
exponent between Unix and Windows"
Rewrote the code that determines what 'precision' argument should be
passed to sprintf() to fit the string representation of the input number
into the field.
We get finer control over conversion by pre-calculating the exponent, so
we are able to determine which conversion format, 'e' or 'f', will be
used by sprintf().
We also remove the leading zero from the exponent on Windows to make it
compatible with the sprintf() output on other platforms.
Bug#31030 rpl000015.test fails if $MYSQL_TCP_PORT != 3306
Note:
This bug does not occur in MySQL 5.0 and up, because
ChangeSet 1.2328.2.1 2006/11/27 for MySQL 5.0 prevents this.
The 5.0 fix uses the environment variable DEFAULT_MASTER_PORT
which is set by mysql-test-run.pl.
mysql-test-run.pl in 4.1 does not set this variable.
There are two alternatives:
1) Backport the 5.0 fix for this test including modifications
to mysql-test-run.pl and mysql-test-run-shell.
This is a not acceptable impact on an old MySQL version.
2) Fix the problem different than in 5.0 like in the current
ChangeSet + do not apply these changes when upmerging to 5.0
filesort() uses file->estimate_rows_upper_bound() call to allocate
internal buffers. If this function returns a value smaller than
a number of row that will be returned later in find_all_keys(),
that can cause server crash.
Fixed by implementing ha_federated::estimate_rows_upper_bound() to
return maximum possible number of rows.
Present estimation for FEDERATED always returns 0 if the linked to the VIEW.
