Adding new error message
The problem is that argument buffer can be used as result buffer
and it leads to argument value change.
The fix is to use 'old buffer' as result buffer only
if first argument is not constant item.
Problem: using LOAD_FILE() in some cases we pass a file name string
without a trailing '\0' to fn_format() which relies on that however.
That may lead to valgrind warnings.
Fix: add a trailing '\0' to the file name passed to fn_format().
The warning happens because string argument is not zero ended.
The fix is to add new parameter 'length' to SQL_CRYPT() and
use ptr() instead of c_ptr().

String::realloc() did not check whether the existing string data fits in
the newly allocated buffer for cases when reallocating a String object
with external buffer (i.e.alloced == FALSE). This could lead to memory
overruns in some cases.

In BENCHMARK(count, expr), count could overflow/wrap-around.
Patch changes to a sufficiently large data-type. Adds a warning
for negative count values.
Item_func_inet_ntoa and Item_func_conv inherit 'maybe_null' flag from an
argument, which is wrong.
Both can be NULL with notnull arguments, so that's fixed.
Since, as of MySQL 5.0.15, CHAR() arguments larger than 255 are converted into multiple result bytes, a single CHAR() argument can now take up to 4 bytes. This patch fixes Item_func_char::fix_length_and_dec() to take this into account.
This patch also fixes a regression introduced by the patch for bug21513. As now we do not always have the 'name' member of Item set for Item_hex_string and Item_bin_string, an own print() method has been added to Item_hex_string so that it could correctly be printed by Item_func::print_args().
represented by an expression of the type UNSIGNED INT and this
expression was evaluated to 0 then the function erroneously returned
the value of the first argument instead of an empty string.
This problem was introduced by the patch for bug 10963.
The problem has been resolved by a proper modification of the code of
Item_func_substr::val_str.
of its arguments was evaluated to NULL, while the predicate
LOCATE(str,NULL) IS NULL erroneously was evaluated to FALSE.
This happened because the Item_func_locate::fix_length_and_dec
method by mistake set the value of the maybe_null flag for
the function item to 0. In consequence of this the function
was considered as the one that could not ever return NULL.
The function CRC32() returns unsigned integer.
But the metadata (the unsigned flag) for the
function was set incorrectly.
As a result type arithmetics based on the
function's metadata (like finding the concise
type of an temporary table column to hold the result)
returned incorrect results.
Fixed by returning correct type information.
This fix is based on code contributed by Martin Friebe
(martin@hybyte.com) on 2007-03-30.
When the SUBSTRING() function was used over a LONGTEXT field the max_length of
the SUBSTRING() result was wrongly calculated and set to 0. As the max_length
parameter is used while tmp field creation it limits the length of the result
field and leads to printing an empty string instead of the correct result.
Now the Item_func_substr::fix_length_and_dec() function correctly calculates
the max_length parameter.
to return NULL for non-NULL arguments.
This is not the case as it can return NULL
for invalid hexidecimal strings.
Fixed by setting the maybe_null flag.
correctly.
The Item_func::print method was used to print the Item_func_encode and the
Item_func_decode objects. The last argument to ENCODE and DECODE functions
is a plain C string and thus Item_func::print wasn't able to print it.
The print() method is added to the Item_func_encode class. It correctly
prints the Item_func_encode and the Item_func_decode objects.
Handling of large signed/unsigned values was not consistent, so some string functions could return bogus results.
The current fix is to simply patch up the val_str() methods for those string items.
It would be good clean this code up in general, to make similar problems much harder to make. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
