When inserting into a join-based view the update fields from the ON DUPLICATE
KEY UPDATE wasn't checked to be from the table being inserted into and were
silently ignored.
The new check_view_single_update() function is added to check that
insert/update fields are being from the same single table of the view.
st_table::const_key_parts member is used in determining if
certain key has a prefix that is compared to constant(s) in
the query predicates.
If there's such prefix the index can be used to get the data
from the remaining suffix columns in sorted order.
However if a field is compared to another field from a "const"
table the const_key_parts is not amended.
This makes the optimizer unable to detect that the key can be
used for sorting and adds an extra filesort.
Fixed by updating const_key_parts after reading in the "const"
table.
tables' lock."
Execution of ALTER TABLE ... ENABLE KEYS on a table (which can take rather
long time) prevented concurrent execution of all statements using tables.
The problem was caused by the fact that we were holding LOCK_open mutex
during whole duration of this statement and particularly during call
to handler::enable_indexes(). This behavior was introduced as part of the
fix for bug 14262 "SP: DROP PROCEDURE|VIEW (maybe more) write to binlog
too late (race cond)"
The patch simply restores old behavior. Note that we can safely do this as
this operation takes exclusive lock (similar to name-lock) which blocks both
DML and DDL on the table being altered.
It also introduces mysql-test/include/wait_show_pattern.inc helper script
which is used to make test-case for this bug robust enough.
After fix for bug#21798 JOIN stores the pointer to the buffer for sorting
fields. It is used while sorting for grouping and for ordering. If ORDER BY
clause has more elements then the GROUP BY clause then a memory overrun occurs.
Now the length of the ORDER BY list is always passed to the
make_unireg_sortorder() function and it allocates buffer big enough to be
used for bigger list.
The problem was that the events_bugs test could randomly fail due to
races in the test case.
The solution is to replace fixed sleeps with reliable polling of a
certain state to settle. For that, a new auxiliary script
include/wait_condition.inc is used, that allows waiting for a given
query to return true.
UNION over correlated and uncorrelated SELECTS.
In such subqueries each uncorrelated SELECT should be considered as
uncacheable. Otherwise join_free is called for it and in many cases
it causes some problems.
WL#3681 (ALTER TABLE ORDER BY)
Before this fix, the ALTER TABLE statement implemented an ORDER BY option
with the following characteristics :
1) The order by clause accepts a list of criteria, with optional ASC or
DESC keywords
2) Each criteria can be a general expression, involving operators,
native functions, stored functions, user defined functions, subselects ...
With this fix :
1) has been left unchanged, since it's a de-facto existing feature,
that was already present in the code base and partially covered in the test
suite. Code coverage for ASC and DESC was missing and has been improved.
2) has been changed to limit the kind of criteria that are permissible:
now only a column name is valid.
