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).
fails randomly.
The problem was that the test case used command line tool (mysql)
without specifying connect_timeout argument. In some cases,
this lead to hanging of the test case.
The fix is to specify --connect_timeout=1 when starting mysql.
Also, the patch contains polishing and various cleanups to simplify
analyzing of the problems further.
The patch affects only test suite, no server codebase has been
touched.
(Mostly in DBUG_PRINT() and unused arguments)
Fixed bug in query cache when used with traceing (--with-debug)
Fixed memory leak in mysqldump
Removed warnings from mysqltest scripts (replaced -- with #)
The problem was that some functions (namely IN() starting with 4.1, and
CHAR() starting with 5.0) were returning NULL in certain conditions,
while they didn't set their maybe_null flag. Because of that there could
be some problems with 'IS NULL' check, and statements that depend on the
function value domain, like CREATE TABLE t1 SELECT 1 IN (2, NULL);.
The fix is to set maybe_null correctly.
The regression is caused by the fix for bug 14767. When INSERT ... SELECT
used a view in the SELECT list that was not inlined, and there was an
active transaction, the server could crash in Query_cache::invalidate.
On INSERT ... SELECT only the table being inserted into is invalidated.
Thus views that can't be inlined are skipped from invalidation.
The bug manifests itself in two ways so there is 2 test cases.
One checks that the only the table being inserted into is invalidated.
And the second one checks that there is no crash on INSERT ... SELECT.
This change set implements the DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS functionality.
This fix is considered a bug and not a feature, because without it,
there is no known method to write a database creation script that can create
a trigger without failing, when executed on a database that may or may not
contain already a trigger of the same name.
Implementing this functionality closes an orthogonality gap between triggers
and stored procedures / stored functions (which do support the DROP IF
EXISTS syntax).
In sql_trigger.cc, in mysql_create_or_drop_trigger,
the code has been reordered to:
- perform the tests that do not depend on the file system (access()),
- get the locks (wait_if_global_read_lock, LOCK_open)
- call access()
- perform the operation
- write to the binlog
- unlock (LOCK_open, start_waiting_global_read_lock)
This is to ensure that all the code that depends on the presence of the
trigger file is executed in the same critical section,
and prevents race conditions similar to the case fixed by Bug 14262 :
- thread 1 executes DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS, access() returns a failure
- thread 2 executes CREATE TRIGGER
- thread 2 logs CREATE TRIGGER
- thread 1 logs DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS

stored function invoked from different connections".
Invocation of trigger which was using stored function from different
connections caused server crashes (for non-debug server this happened
in highly concurrent environment, but debug server failed on assertion
in relatively simple scenario).
Item_func_sp was not safe to use in triggers (in other words for
re-execution from different threads) as artificial TABLE object
pointed by Item_func_sp::dummy_table referenced incorrect THD
object. To fix the problem we force re-initialization of this
object for each re-execution of statement.
When compiling GROUP BY Item_ref instances are dereferenced in
setup_copy_fields(), i.e. replaced with the corresponding Item_field
(if they point to one) or Item_copy_string for the other cases.
Since the Item_ref (in the Item_field case) is no longer used the information
about the aliases stored in it is lost.
Fixed by preserving the column, table and DB alias on dereferencing Item_ref
The problem was that any VIEW columns had always implicit derivation.
Fix: derivation is now copied from the original expression
given in VIEW definition.
For example:
- a VIEW column which comes from a string constant
in CREATE VIEW definition have now coercible derivation.
- a VIEW column having COLLATE clause
in CREATE VIEW definition have now explicit derivation.
on large length
Problem: Most (all) of the numeric inputs were being coerced into
int (32 bit) sized variables. Works OK for sane inputs; any input
larger than 2^32 (or 2^31 for signed vars) exihibited predictable
wrapping behavior (up to about 10^18) and then started having really
strange behaviour past that point (since the conversion to 64 bit int
from the DECIMAL type can do weird things on out of range numbers).
Solution: 1) Add many tests. 2) Convert input from (u)long type to
(u)longlong. 3) Do (sometimes multiple) sanity checks on input,
keeping in mind that sometimes a negative longlong is not a negative
longlong (if the unsigned_flag is set). 4) Emulate existing behavior
w/rt negative and "small" out-of-bounds values.
- When returning metadata for scalar subqueries the actual type of the
column was calculated based on the value type, which limits the actual
type of a scalar subselect to the set of (currently) 3 basic types :
integer, double precision or string. This is the reason that columns
of types other then the basic ones (e.g. date/time) are reported as
being of the corresponding basic type.
Fixed by storing/returning information for the column type in addition
to the result type.
