When CREATE SERVER is issued, it allocates memory on memory root
to store cached server structure. When DROP SERVER is issued,
it doesn't release this memory, as it is impossible with the
memory root.
We use the same allocation strategy for plugins and acl. The problem
here that there was no way (except for the server restart) to force
'servers' code to release this memory.
With this fix it is possible to release unused server cache memory
by FLUSH PRIVILEGES.
No test case for this fix.
well enough
CREATE SERVER may cause server crash if there is not enough memory
to execute this operation.
Fixed that create_server() and prepare_server_struct_for_insert()
didn't check return value of functions that allocate memory.
As this is out of memory issue fix, not test case available.
binlog_format=mixed
Statement-based replication of DELETE ... LIMIT, UPDATE ... LIMIT,
INSERT ... SELECT ... LIMIT is not safe as order of rows is not
defined.
With this fix, we issue a warning that this statement is not safe to
replicate in statement mode, or go to row-based mode in mixed mode.
Note that we may consider a statement as safe if ORDER BY primary_key
is present. However it may confuse users to see very similiar statements
replicated differently.
Note 2: regular UPDATE statement (w/o LIMIT) is unsafe as well, but
this patch doesn't address this issue. See comment from Kristian

When there are no underlying tables specified for a merge table,
SHOW CREATE TABLE outputs a statement that cannot be executed. The
same is true for mysqldump (it generates dumps that cannot be
executed).
This happens because SQL parser does not accept empty UNION() clause.
This patch changes the following:
- it is now possible to execute CREATE/ALTER statement with
empty UNION() clause.
- the same as above, but still worth noting: it is now possible to
remove underlying tables mapping using ALTER TABLE ... UNION=().
- SHOW CREATE TABLE does not output UNION() clause if there are
no underlying tables specified for a merge table. This makes
mysqldump slightly smaller.
m_status == DA_OK
Reading from information_scema.tables or information_schema.columns
may cause assertion failure in debug builds. This may happen under
rare circumstances when information_schema fails to get information
about a table (e.g. when a connection is killed).
This happens because open_normal_and_derived_tables() can return an
error without setting an error message in THD. But information_schema
attempts to get an error message from THD unconditionally.
With this fix information_schema attempts to get an error message
from THD only in case error message is set in THD.
MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDECIMAL
Added support for the type MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDECIMAL. It now works like
MYSQL_TYPE_DECIMAL. Unfortunately there cannot be a test case until
we have a working information_schema plugin as part of the source
distribution.
sporadically
Under some circumstances, the mysql_insert_id() value after SELECT ...
INSERT could return a wrong value. This could happen when the last
SELECT ... INSERT did not involve an AUTO_INCREMENT column, but the
value of mysql_insert_id() was changed by some previous statements.
Fixed by checking the value of thd->insert_id_used in
select_insert::send_eof() and returning 0 for mysql_insert_id() if it
is not set.
- Apply Eric Bergen's patch: in join_read_always_key(), move ha_index_init() call
to before the late NULLs filtering code.
- Backport function comments from 6.0.
and Item_direct_ref constructor calls.
Order of ref->field_name and ref->table_name arguments
is of Item_ref and Item_direct_ref in the fix_inner_refs
function is inverted.
added new function test_if_data_home_dir() which checks that
path does not contain mysql data home directory.
Using of mysql data home directory in
DATA DIRECTORY & INDEX DIRECTORY is disallowed.
READ_ONLY token was accidentally placed into wrong place
('ident' rule). The proper place is in the 'keyword_sp' rule.
The manual should be re-generated after this patch, because
the manual depends on the 'keyword_sp' rule.
