Bug#4968 "Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Test cases for bugs 4968, 19733, 6895 will be added in 5.0.
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table were not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they used to modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure in
LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory of
the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO (note that code in 5.1 already creates and
uses a copy of this structure in mysql_create_table()/alter_table(),
but this approach didn't work well for CREATE TABLE SELECT statement).
account by the optimizer.
Now all row equalities are converted into conjunctions of
equalities between row elements. They are taken into account
by the optimizer together with the original regular equality
predicates.
cursor is interpreted latin1 character and Bug#9819 "Cursors: Mysql Server
Crash while fetching from table with 5 million records."
A fix for a possible memory leak when fetching into an SP cursor
in a long loop.
The patch uses a common implementation of cursors in the binary protocol and
in stored procedures and implements materialized cursors.
For implementation details, see comments in sql_cursor.cc
The problem: base_list::remove didn't modify base_list::last when removing
the last list element.
The fix: If we remove the last element, find the element before it (by walking
from the beginning of the list) and set base_list::last accordingly.
The list gets corrupted in both 4.0 and 4.1. There are no visible problems in
current 4.1 because current 4.1 doesn't call where_cond->fix_fields() after
constant propagation step.
delete is declared. As we don't use exceptions placement delete is never
called and the fix only affects numerous warnings when
compiling with MS Visual C++.

Ensure that references in HAVING, ORDER BY or GROUP BY are calculated after fields in SELECT.
This will ensure that any reference to these has a valid value.
Generalized the code for split_sum_func()
Added push_back(void *, MEM_ROOT *) to make some list-handling code easier that needs to be allocated in a different mem-root
(Before one had to change thd->mem_root ; push_back(); restore mem_root.
Added tests for != predicate.
sql_select.cc:
Fixing bugs in Item_equal code:
added a parameter in substitute_for_equal_field;
modified eliminate_item_equal.
sql_list.h:
Cleanup
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
The objects of this class represent multiple conjunctive equalities
in where conditions: =(f1,f2,...fn) <=> f1=f2 and f2= ... and =fn.
The objects are used to generate new possibale paths to access
the tables when executing a query.
They are also used to optimize the execution plan
chosen by the optimizer for the query.
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
