When a UNION statement forced conversion of an UTF8
charset value to a binary charset value, the byte
length of the result values was truncated to the
CHAR_LENGTH of the original UTF8 value.
spaces.
When the my_strnncollsp_simple function compares two strings and one is a prefix
of another then this function compares characters in the rest of longer key
with the space character to find whether the longer key is greater or less.
But the sort order of the collation isn't used in this comparison. This may
lead to a wrong comparison result, wrongly created index or wrong order of the
result set of a query with the ORDER BY clause.
Now the my_strnncollsp_simple function uses collation sort order to compare
the characters in the rest of longer key with the space character.
query / no aggregate of subquery
The optimizer counts the aggregate functions that
appear as top level expressions (in all_fields) in
the current subquery. Later it makes a list of these
that it uses to actually execute the aggregates in
end_send_group().
That count is used in several places as a flag whether
there are aggregates functions.
While collecting the above info it must not consider
aggregates that are not aggregated in the current
context. It must treat them as normal expressions
instead. Not doing that leads to incorrect data about
the query, e.g. running a query that actually has no
aggregate functions as if it has some (and hence is
expected to return only one row).
Fixed by ignoring the aggregates that are not aggregated
in the current context.
One other smaller omission discovered and fixed in the
process : the place of aggregation was not calculated for
user defined functions. Fixed by calling
Item_sum::init_sum_func_check() and
Item_sum::check_sum_func() as it's done for the rest of
the aggregate functions.
"Federared Transactions Failure"
Bug occurs when the user performs an operation which inserts more than
one row into the federated table and the federated table references a
remote table stored within a transactional storage engine. When the
insert operation for any one row in the statement fails due to
constraint violation, the federated engine is unable to perform
statement rollback and so the remote table contains a partial commit.
The user would expect a statement to perform the same so a statement
rollback is expected.
This bug was fixed by implementing bulk-insert handling into the
federated storage engine. This will relieve the bug for most common
situations by enabling the generation of a multi-row insert into the
remote table and thus permitting the remote table to perform
statement rollback when neccessary.
The multi-row insert is limited to the maximum packet size between
servers and should the size overflow, more than one insert statement
will be sent and this bug will reappear. Multi-row insert is disabled
when an "INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE" is being performed.
The bulk-insert handling will offer a significant performance boost
when inserting a large number of small rows.
This patch builds on Bug29019 and Bug25511
"Federated INSERT failures"
Federated does not correctly handle "INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE"
However, implementing such support is not reasonably possible without
increasing complexity of the storage engine: checking that constraints
on remote server match local server and parsing error messages.
This patch causes 'ON DUPLICATE KEY' to fail with ER_DUP_KEY message
if a conflict occurs and not to fail silently.
SHOW CREATE TABLE or SELECT FROM I_S.
Actually, the bug discovers two problems:
- the original query is not preserved properly. This is the problem
of BUG#16291;
- the resultset of SHOW CREATE TABLE statement is binary.
This patch fixes the second problem for the 5.0.
Both problems will be fixed in 5.1.
Problem: like_range() returned wrong ranges for contractions (like 'ch' in Czech').
Fix: adding a special code to handle tricky cases:
- contraction head followed by a wild character
- full contraction
- contraction part followed by another contraction part,
but they are not a contraction together.
"REPLACE/INSERT IGNORE/UPDATE IGNORE doesn't work"
Federated does not record neccessary HA_EXTRA flags in order to
support REPLACE/INSERT IGNORE/UPDATE IGNORE.
Implement ::extra() to capture flags neccessary for functionality.
New function append_ident() to better escape identifiers consistantly.
Fulltext index may get corrupt by certain gbk characters.
The problem was that when skipping leading non-true-word-characters,
we assumed that these characters are always 1 byte long. This is not
the case with gbk character set, since non-true-word-characters may
be 2 bytes long.
Affects 5.0 only.
Thanks to Martin Friebe for finding and submitting a fix for this bug!
A table with maximum number of key segments and maximum length key name
would have a corrupted .frm file, due to an incorrect calculation of the
complete key length. Now the key length is computed correctly (I hope) :-)
MyISAM would reject a table with the maximum number of keys and the maximum
number of key segments in all keys. It would allow one less than this total
maximum. Now MyISAM accepts a table defined with the maximum. (This is a
very minor issue.)
CHECK TABLE against ARCHIVE table may falsely report table corruption,
or cause server crash.
Fixed by using proper buffer for CHECK TABLE.
Affects both 5.0 and 5.1.
Sometimes special 0 ENUM values was ALTERed to normal
empty string ENUM values.
Special 0 ENUM value has the same string representation
as normal ENUM value defined as '' (empty string).
The do_field_string function was used to convert
ENUM data at an ALTER TABLE request, but this
function doesn't care about numerical "indices" of
ENUM values, i.e. do_field_string doesn't distinguish
a special 0 value from an empty string value.
A new copy function called do_field_enum has been added to
copy special 0 ENUM values without conversion to an empty
string.
a lookup into a BINARY index by a key ended with spaces. It caused
an assertion abort for a debug version and wrong results for non-debug
versions.
The problem occurred because the function _mi_pack_key stripped off
the trailing spaces from binary search keys while the function _mi_make_key
did not do it when keys were inserted into the index.
Now the function _mi_pack_key does not remove the trailing spaces from
search keys if they are of the binary type.
fix binlog-writing so that end_log_pos is given correctly even
within transactions for both SHOW BINLOG and SHOW MASTER STATUS,
that is as absolute values (from log start) rather than relative
values (from transaction's start).

LOCK TABLES takes a list of tables to lock. It may lock several
tables successfully and then encounter a tables that it can't lock,
e.g. because it's locked. In such case it needs to undo the locks on
the already locked tables. And it does that. But it has also notified
the relevant table storage engine handlers that they should lock.
The only reliable way to ensure that the table handlers will give up
their locks is to end the transaction. This is what UNLOCK TABLE
does : it ends the transaction if there were locked tables by LOCK
tables.
It is possible to end the transaction when the lock fails in
LOCK TABLES because LOCK TABLES ends the transaction at its start
already.
Fixed by ending (again) the transaction when LOCK TABLES fails to
lock a table.
Max compressed file size was calculated incorretly causing server
crash on INSERT.
With this patch we use proper max file size provided by zlib.
Affects 5.0 only.
the loose scan optimization for grouping queries was applied returned
a wrong result set when the query was used with the SQL_BIG_RESULT
option.
The SQL_BIG_RESULT option forces to use sorting algorithm for grouping
queries instead of employing a suitable index. The current loose scan
optimization is applied only for one table queries when the suitable
index is covering. It does not make sense to use sort algorithm in this
case. However the create_sort_index function does not take into account
the possible choice of the loose scan to implement the DISTINCT operator
which makes sorting unnecessary. Moreover the current implementation of
the loose scan for queries with distinct assumes that sorting will
never happen. Thus in this case create_sort_index should not call
the function filesort.
INSERT into table from SELECT from the same table
with ORDER BY and LIMIT was inserting other data
than sole SELECT ... ORDER BY ... LIMIT returns.
One part of the patch for bug #9676 improperly pushed
LIMIT to temporary table in the presence of the ORDER BY
clause.
That part has been removed.
Problem: separator was not converted to the result character set,
so the result was a mixture of two different character sets,
which was especially bad for UCS2.
Fix: convert separator to the result character set.
ALTER VIEW is currently not supported as a prepared statement
and should be disabled as such as they otherwise could cause server crashes.
ALTER VIEW is currently not supported when called from stored
procedures or functions for related reasons and should also be disabled.
This patch disables these DDL statements and adjusts the appropriate test
cases accordingly.
Additional tests has been added to reflect on the fact that we do support
CREATE/ALTER/DROP TABLE for Prepared Statements (PS), Stored Procedures (SP)
and PS within SP.
