incorrect key file for table
In certain cases it could happen that deleting a row could
corrupt an RTREE index.
According to Guttman's algorithm, page underflow is handled
by storing the page in a list for later re-insertion. The
keys from the stored pages have to be inserted into the
remaining pages of the same level of the tree. Hence the
level number is stored in the re-insertion list together
with the page.
In the MySQL RTree implementation the level counts from zero
at the root page, increasing numbers for levels down the tree.
If during re-insertion of the keys the tree height grows, all
level numbers become invalid. The remaining keys will be
inserted at the wrong level.
The fix is to increment the level numbers stored in the
reinsert list after a split of the root block during reinsertion.
Using INSERT DELAYED on MERGE tables could lead to table
corruptions.
The manual lists a couple of storage engines, which can be
used with INSERT DELAYED. MERGE is not in this list.
The attempt to try it anyway has not been rejected yet.
This bug was not detected earlier as it can work under
special circumstances. Most notable is low concurrency.
To be safe, this patch rejects any attempt to use INSERT
DELAYED on MERGE tables.
INSERT DELAYED inserts garbage for BIT columns.
When delayed thread clones TABLE object, it didn't adjusted bit_ptr
to newly created record (though it correctly adjusts ptr and null_ptr).
This is fixed by correctly adjusting bit_ptr when performing a clone.
With this fix BIT values are stored correctly by INSERT DELAYED.
Showstopper and regression against 5.0.24.
Previously, we ignored seek() errors (see Bug#22828) and let seek()s
against pipes fail. Now, since we check that a seek didn't fail,
and return without reading, this bug popped up.
This restores the behavior for file-ish objects that could never be
seek()ed.
ENUMs weren't allowed to have character 0xff, a perfectly good character in some locales.
This was circumvented by mapping 0xff in ENUMs to ',', thereby prevent actual commas from
being used. Now if 0xff makes an appearance, we find a character not used in the enum and
use that as a separator. If no such character exists, we throw an error.
Any solution would have broken some sort of existing behaviour. This solution should
serve both fractions (those with 0xff and those with ',' in their enums), but
WILL REQUIRE A DUMP/RESTORE CYCLE FROM THOSE WITH 0xff IN THEIR ENUMS. :-/
That is, mysqldump with their current server, and restore when upgrading to one with
this patch.
The crash happens because second filling of the same I_S table happens in
case of subselect with order by. table->sort.io_cache previously allocated
in create_sort_index() is deleted during second filling
(function get_schema_tables_result). There are two places where
I_S table can be filled: JOIN::exec and create_sort_index().
To fix the bug we should check if the table was already filled
in one of these places and skip processing of the table in second.
The function make_unireg_sortorder ignored the fact that any
view field is represented by a 'ref' object.
This could lead to wrong results for the queries containing
both GROUP BY and ORDER BY clauses.
A wrong order of statements in QUICK_GROUP_MIN_MAX_SELECT::reset
caused a crash when a query with DISTINCT was executed by a loose scan
for an InnoDB table that had been emptied.
present.
A view created with CREATE VIEW ... ORDER BY ... cannot be resolved with
the MERGE algorithm, even when no other part of the CREATE VIEW statement
would require the view to be resolved using the TEMPTABLE algorithm.
The check for presence of the ORDER BY clause in the underlying select is
removed from the st_lex::can_be_merged() function.
The ORDER BY list of the underlying select is appended to the ORDER BY list
Objects of the class Item_equal contain an auxiliary member
eval_item of the type cmp_item that is used only for direct
evaluation of multiple equalities. Currently a multiple equality
is evaluated directly only in the cases when the equality holds
at most for one row in the result set.
The compare collation of eval_item was determined incorectly.
It could lead to returning incorrect results for some queries.
