when there are no up-to-date system tables to support it:
- initialize the scheduler before reporting "Ready for connections".
This ensures that warnings, if any, are printed before "Ready for
connections", and this message is not mangled.
- do not abort the scheduler if there are no system tables
- check the tables once at start up, remember the status and disable
the scheduler if the tables are not up to date.
If one attempts to use the scheduler with bad tables,
issue an error message.
- clean up the behaviour of the module under LOCK TABLES and pre-locking
mode
- make sure implicit commit of Events DDL works as expected.
- add more tests
Collateral clean ups in the events code.
This patch fixes Bug#23631 Events: SHOW VARIABLES doesn't work
when mysql.event is damaged
Adding an event that can be used to denote that an incident occured
on the master. The event can be used to denote a gap in the replication
stream, but can also be used to denote other incidents.
In addition, the injector interface is extended with functions to
generate an incident event. The function will also rotate the binary
log after generating an incident event to get a fresh binary log.
BUG#26429: SHOW CREATE EVENT is incorrect for an event that
STARTS NOW()
BUG#26431: Impossible to re-create an event from backup if its
STARTS clause is in the past
WL#3698: Events: execution in local time zone
The problem was that local times specified by the user in AT, STARTS
and ENDS of CREATE EVENT/ALTER EVENT statement were converted to UTC,
and the original time zone was forgotten. This way, event scheduler
couldn't honor Daylight Saving Time shifts, and times shown to the
user were also in UTC. Additionally, CREATE EVENT didn't allow times
in the past, thus preventing straightforward event restoration from
old backups.
This patch reworks event scheduler time computations, performing them
in the time zone associated with the event. Also it allows times to
be in the past.
The patch adds time_zone column to mysql.event table.
NOTE: The patch is almost final, but the bug#9953 should be pushed
first.
The problem was that some facilities (like CONVERT_TZ() function or
server HELP statement) may require implicit access to some tables in
'mysql' database. This access was done by ordinary means of adding
such tables to the list of tables the query is going to open.
However, if we issued LOCK TABLES before that, we would get "table
was not locked" error trying to open such implicit tables.
The solution is to treat certain tables as MySQL system tables, like
we already do for mysql.proc. Such tables may be opened for reading
at any moment regardless of any locks in effect. The cost of this is
that system table may be locked for writing only together with other
system tables, it is disallowed to lock system tables for writing and
have any other lock on any other table.
After this patch the following tables are treated as MySQL system
tables:
mysql.help_category
mysql.help_keyword
mysql.help_relation
mysql.help_topic
mysql.proc (it already was)
mysql.time_zone
mysql.time_zone_leap_second
mysql.time_zone_name
mysql.time_zone_transition
mysql.time_zone_transition_type
These tables are now opened with open_system_tables_for_read() and
closed with close_system_tables(), or one table may be opened with
open_system_table_for_update() and closed with close_thread_tables()
(the latter is used for mysql.proc table, which is updated as part of
normal MySQL server operation). These functions may be used when
some tables were opened and locked already.
NOTE: online update of time zone tables is not possible during
replication, because there's no time zone cache flush neither on LOCK
TABLES, nor on FLUSH TABLES, so the master may serve stale time zone
data from cache, while on slave updated data will be loaded from the
time zone tables.
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
Backport of functionality in private 5.2 tree.
Added new language to parser, new mysql.servers table and associated code
to be used by the federated storage engine to allow central connection information
per WL entry.
Bug#21025 (misleading error message when creating functions named 'x', or 'y')
Bug#22619 (Spaces considered harmful)
This change contains a fix to report warnings or errors, and multiple tests
cases.
Before this fix, name collisions between:
- Native functions
- User Defined Functions
- Stored Functions
were not systematically reported, leading to confusing behavior.
I) Native / User Defined Function
Before this fix, is was possible to create a UDF named "foo", with the same
name as a native function "foo", but it was impossible to invoke the UDF,
since the syntax "foo()" always refer to the native function.
After this fix, creating a UDF fails with an error if there is a name
collision with a native function.
II) Native / Stored Function
Before this fix, is was possible to create a SF named "db.foo", with the same
name as a native function "foo", but this was confusing since the syntax
"foo()" would refer to the native function. To refer to the Stored Function,
the user had to use the "db.foo()" syntax.
After this fix, creating a Stored Function reports a warning if there is a
name collision with a native function.
III) User Defined Function / Stored Function
Before this fix, creating a User Defined Function "foo" and a Stored Function
"db.foo" are mutually exclusive operations. Whenever the second function is
created, an error is reported. However, the test suite did not cover this
behavior.
After this fix, the behavior is unchanged, and is now covered by test cases.
Note that the code change in this patch depends on the fix for Bug 21114.
Due to the complexity of this change, everything is documented in WL#3565
This patch is the third iteration, it takes into account the comments
received to date.
Bug #21785 "Server crashes after rename of the log table" and
Bug #21966 "Strange warnings on create like/repair of the log
tables"
According to the patch, from now on, one should use RENAME to
perform a log table rotation (this should also be reflected in
the manual).
Here is a sample:
use mysql;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS general_log2 LIKE general_log;
RENAME TABLE general_log TO general_log_backup, general_log2 TO general_log;
The rules for Rename of the log tables are following:
IF 1. Log tables are enabled
AND 2. Rename operates on the log table and nothing is being
renamed to the log table.
DO 3. Throw an error message.
ELSE 4. Perform rename.
The very RENAME query will go the the old (backup) table. This is
consistent with the behavoiur we have with binlog ROTATE LOGS
statement.
Other problems, which are solved by the patch are:
1) Now REPAIR of the log table is exclusive operation (as it should be), this
also eliminates lock-related warnings. and
2) CREATE LIKE TABLE now usese usual read lock on the source table rather
then name lock, which is too restrictive. This way we get rid of another
log table-related warning, which occured because of the above fact
(as a side-effect, name lock resulted in a warning).
