Before this fix, a call to a User Defined Function (UDF) could,
under some circumstances, be interpreted as a call to a Stored function
instead. This occurred if a native function was invoked in the parameters
for the UDF, as in "select my_udf(abs(x))".
The root cause of this defect is the introduction, by the fix for Bug 21809,
of st_select_lex::udf_list, and it's usage in the parser in sql_yacc.yy
in the rule function_call_generic (in 5.1).
While the fix itself for Bug 21809 is correct in 5.0, the code change
merged into the 5.1 release created the issue, because the calls in 5.1 to :
- lex->current_select->udf_list.push_front(udf)
- lex->current_select->udf_list.pop()
are not balanced in case of native functions, causing the udf_list,
which is really a stack, to be out of sync with the internal stack
maintained by the bison parser.
Instead of moving the call to udf_list.pop(), which would have fixed the
symptom, this patch goes further and removes the need for udf_list.
This is motivated by two reasons:
a) Maintaining a stack in the MySQL code in sync with the stack maintained
internally in sql_yacc.cc (not .yy) is extremely dependent of the
implementation of yacc/bison, and extremely difficult to maintain.
It's also totally dependent of the structure of the grammar, and has a risk
to break with regression defects each time the grammar itself is changed.
b) The previous code did report construct like "foo(expr AS name)" as
syntax errors (ER_PARSER_ERROR), which is incorrect, and misleading.
The syntax is perfectly valid, as this expression is valid when "foo" is
a UDF. Whether this syntax is legal or not depends of the semantic of "foo".
With this change:
a) There is only one stack (in bison), and no List<udf_func> to maintain.
b) "foo(expr AS name)", when used incorrectly, is reported as semantic error:
- ER_WRONG_PARAMETERS_TO_NATIVE_FCT (for native functions)
- ER_WRONG_PARAMETERS_TO_STORED_FCT (for stored functions)
This is achieved by the changes implemented in item_create.cc
Changed paths to ndb include directory to include "storage"
Makefile.am:
Adjusted path to yaSSL libtool libraries
ssl.m4:
Use libtool way of specifying yaSSL libraries
- The table_priv column of table_privs table was altered to a enum type
with fewer enums causing the SHOW/CREATE VIEW grants to be truncated.
- Improved comments and moved all declarations for table_privs, column_privs
and proc_privs to one section for each table making it easy to see hat alterations
are performed on each table
- Reduced the number of ALTER's slightly, but as this is an upgrade script we need
to take all possibilites into account.
- Merge patch.
- Test case needed update because event number were off.
- Error code has changed because db name validation rules
changes between 5.0 and 5.1
