says * for global allowed
The current behaviour of 'GRANT *' was changed as a part of the fix
for Bug#19022, Bug#17199 and Bug#18444. To avoid regression, we keep
the current behavior and update the documentation.
Test case added to grant.test.
lowercasing table name".
In lower_case_table_names > 0 mode some queries to I_S left entries
with incorrect key in table definition cache. This wasted memory and
caused some of the further queries to I_S to produce stale results
in cases when table definition was changed by a DDL statement.
Also in combination with similar problem in CREATE TABLE (which also
has peeked into table definition cache using non-normalized key) this
issue led to to spurious ER_TABLE_EXISTS_ERROR errors when one tried
to create a table with the same name as a previously existing but
dropped table (assuming that table name contained characters in upper
case).
This problem occured due to fact that fill_schema_table_from_frm()
was not properly normalizing (lowercasing) database and table names
which it used for lookups in table definition cache.
This fix adds proper normalization to this function. It also solves
similar problem in CREATE TABLE's code by ensuring that it uses
properly normalized version of table name when it peeks into table
definition cache instead of non-normalized one.
We cann connect() in a non-blocking mode to be able to specify a
non-standard timeout.
The problem was that we did not fetch the status from the
non-blocking connect(). We assumed that poll() would not return
a POLLIN flag if the connect failed. But on some platforms this
is not true.
After a successful poll() we do now retrieve the status value
from connect() with getsockopt(...SO_ERROR...). Now we do know
if (and how) the connect failed.
The test case for my investigation was rpl.rlp_ssl1 on an
Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 machine. Both, IPV4 and IPV6 were active.
'localhost' resolved first for IPV6 and then for IPV4. The
connection over IPV6 was blocked. rpl.rlp_ssl1 timed out
as it did not notice the failed connect(). The first read()
failed, which was interpreted as a master crash and the
connection was tried to reestablish with the same result
until the retry limit was reached.
With the fix, the connect() problem is immediately recognized,
and the connect() is retried on the second resolution for
'localhost', which is successful.
DECIMAL and TIMESTAMP used to have NUM_FLAG, but NEWDECIMAL was forgotten.
It's correct that TIMESTAMP does not have the flag nowadays (manual will be updated, connectors
developers will be notified).
