Subselect's engine checks table->status field to determine if the
record was properly found when we use keyread upon the table.
Partition engine checks all the partitions for given key
before return. So if matching record was found in the first
partition and no matching records were found in the second,
we have table->status == NOT_FOUND after the function, what
makes subselects to skip matching records.
The patch adds table->status= 0 if we actually found something.
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.
According to some internal communication, these two functions are place
holders for future enhancements. Because they use a variable number of
parameters, the implementation defined a reserved keyword for them in the
parser grammar.
Unfortunately, doing so creates a bug similar to Bug 21114 reported for the
function FORMAT.
In the 5.1 code base, due to improvements in the code implemented with bug
21114, having a reserved keyword for functions with a variable number of
arguments is not needed any more by the implementation.
As a result, this fix removes the place-holder implementation, and removes
the unnecessary reserved keywords. Should the functions UNIQUE_USERS and
GROUP_UNIQUE_USERS be finally implemented in a later release, the
implementation should sub class Create_native_func in sql/item_create.cc.
For example, see the class Create_func_concat.
Currently in the ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY mode no hidden fields are allowed in the
select list. To ensure this each expression in the select list is checked
to be a constant, an aggregate function or to occur in the GROUP BY list.
The last two requirements are wrong and doesn't allow valid expressions like
"MAX(b) - MIN(b)" or "a + 1" in a query with grouping by a.
The correct check implemented by the patch will ensure that:
any field reference in the [sub]expressions of the select list
is under an aggregate function or
is mentioned as member of the group list or
is an outer reference or
is part of the select list element that coincide with a grouping element.
The Item_field objects now can contain the position of the select list
expression which they belong to. The position is saved during the
field's Item_field::fix_fields() call.
The non_agg_fields list for non-aggregated fields is added to the SELECT_LEX
class. The SELECT_LEX::cur_pos_in_select_list now contains the position in the
select list of the expression being currently fixed.
aliases ignored
When a column reference to a column in JOIN USING is resolved and a new
Item is created for this column the user defined name was lost.
This fix preserves the alias by setting the name of the new Item to the
original alias.
correctly.
The Item_func::print method was used to print the Item_func_encode and the
Item_func_decode objects. The last argument to ENCODE and DECODE functions
is a plain C string and thus Item_func::print wasn't able to print it.
The print() method is added to the Item_func_encode class. It correctly
prints the Item_func_encode and the Item_func_decode objects.
WHERE is present.
If a DELETE statement with ORDER BY and LIMIT contains a WHERE clause
with conditions that for sure cannot be used for index access (like in
WHERE @var:= field) the execution always follows the filesort path.
It happens currently even when for the above case there is an index that
can be used to speedup sorting by the order by list.
Now if a DELETE statement with ORDER BY and LIMIT contains such WHERE
clause conditions that cannot be used to build any quick select then
the mysql_delete() tries to use an index like there is no WHERE clause at all.
In the method Item_field::fix_fields we try to resolve the name of
the field against the names of the aliases that occur in the select
list. This is done by a call of the function find_item_in_list.
When this function finds several occurrences of the field name
it sends an error message to the error queue and returns 0.
Yet the code did not take into account that find_item_in_list
could return 0 and tried to dereference the returned value.
used.
The Item::save_in_field() function is called from fill_record() to fill the
new row with data while execution of the CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement.
Item::save_in_field() calls val_xxx() methods in order to get values.
val_xxx() methods do not take into account the result field. Due to this
Item_func_set_user_var::val_xxx() methods returns values from the original
table, not from the temporary one.
The save_in_field() member function is added to the Item_func_set_user_var
class. It detects whether the result field should be used and properly updates
the value of the user variable.
A BINARY field is represented by the Field_string class. The space character
is used as the filler for unused characters in such a field. But a BINARY field
should use \x00 instead.
Field_string:reset() now detects whether the current field is a BINARY one
and if so uses the \x00 character as a default value filler.
ENUMs weren't allowed to have character 0xff, a perfectly good character in many locales.
This was circumvented by mapping 0xff in ENUMs to ',', thereby prevent actual commas from
being used (because they too would get converted to 0xff on load). 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. :-/

Longer: when a stored function is called from a statement which does not go
to binlog ("SET @a=somedb.myfunc()", "SELECT somedb.myfunc()",
"DO somedb.myfunc()"), this crafted statement is binlogged:
"SELECT myfunc();" (accompanied with a mention of the default database
if there is one). So, if "somedb" is not the default database,
the slave would fail to find myfunc(). The fix is to specify the
function's database name in the crafted binlogged statement, like this:
"SELECT somedb.myfunc();". Test added in rpl_sp.test.
