Problem: UDF doesn't handle the arguments properly when they
are of string type due to a misplaced break.
The length of arguments is also not set properly
when the argument is NULL.
Solution: Fixed the code by putting the break at right place
and setting the argument length to zero when the
argument is NULL.
Problem:
In query like
select 1 from .. order by match .. against ...;
causes a debug assert failue.
Analysis:
In union type query like
(select * from order by a) order by b;
or
(select * from order by a) union (select * from order by b);
We skip resolving of order by a for 1st query and order by of a and b in
2nd query.
This means that, in case when our order by have Item_func_match class,
we skip resolving it.
But we maintain a ft_func_list and at the time of optimization, when we
Perform FULLTEXT search before all regular searches on the bases of the
list we call Item_func_match::init_search() which will cause debug assert
as the item is not resolved.
Solution:
We will skip execution if the item is not fixed and we will not
fix index(Item_func_match::fix_index()) for which
Item_func_match::fix_field() is not called so that on later changes
we can check the dependency on fix field.
Some queries with the "SELECT ... FROM DUAL" nested subqueries
failed with an assertion on debug builds.
Non-debug builds were not affected.
There were a few different issues with similar assertion
failures on different queries:
1. The first problem was related to the incomplete propagation
of the "non-constant" item status from underlying subquery
items to the outer item tree: in some cases non-constants were
interpreted as constants and evaluated at the preparation stage
(val_int() calls withing fix_fields() etc).
Thus, the default implementation of Item_ref::const_item() from
the Item parent class didn't take into account the "const_item"
status of the referenced item tree -- it used the insufficient
"used_tables() == 0" check instead. This worked in most cases
since our "non-constant" functions like RAND() and SLEEP() set
the RAND_TABLE_BIT in the used table map, so they aren't
non-constant from Item_ref's "point of view". However, the
"SELECT ... FROM DUAL" subquery may have an empty map of used
tables, but at the same time subqueries are never "constant" at
the context analysis stage (preparation, view creation etc).
So, the non-contantness of such subqueries was missed.
Fix: the Item_ref::const_item() function has been overloaded to
take into account both (*ref)->const_item() status and tricky
Item_ref::used_tables() return values, since the only
(*ref)->const_item() call is not enough there.
2. In some cases instead of the const_item() call we check a
value of the Item::with_subselect field to recognize items
with nested subqueries. However, the Item_ref class didn't
propagate this value from the referenced item tree.
Fix: Item::has_subquery() and Item_ref::has_subquery()
functions have been backported from 5.6. All direct
references to the with_subselect fields of nested items have
been replaced with the has_subquery() function call.
3. The Item_func_regex class didn't propagate with_subselect
as well, since it overloads the Item_func::fix_fields()
function with insufficient fix_fields() implementation.
Fix: the Item_func_regex::fix_fields() function has been
modified to gather "constant" statuses from inner items.
4. The Item_func_isnull::update_used_tables() function has
a special branch for the underlying item where the maybe_null
value is false: in this case it marks the Item_func_isnull
as a "const_item" and sets the cached_value to false.
However, the Item_func_isnull::val_int() was not in sync with
update_used_tables(): it didn't take into account neither
const_item_cache nor cached_value for the case of
"args[0]->maybe_null == false optimization".
As far as such an Item_func_isnull has "const_item() == true",
it's ok to call Item_func_isnull::val_int() etc from outer
items on preparation stage. In this case the server tried to
call Item_func_isnull::args[0]->isnull(), and if the args[0]
item contained a nested not-nullable subquery, it failed
with an assertion.
Fix: take the value of Item_func_isnull::const_item_cache into
account in the val_int() function.
5. The auxiliary Item_is_not_null_test class has a similar
optimization in the update_used_tables() function as the
Item_func_isnull class has, and the same issue in the val_int()
function.
In addition to that the Item_is_not_null_test::update_used_tables()
doesn't update the const_item_cache value, so the "maybe_null"
optimization is useless there. Thus, we missed some optimizations
of cases like these (before and after the fix):
< <is_not_null_test>(a),
---
> <cache>(<is_not_null_test>(a)),
or
< having (<is_not_null_test>(a) and <is_not_null_test>(a))
---
> having 1
etc.
Fix: update Item_is_not_null_test::const_item_cache in
update_used_tables() and take in into account in val_int().
PROPERLY QUOTED IN BINLOG FILE
Problem: In load data file query, User variables are allowed
inside "Into_list" and "Set_list". These user variables used
inside these two lists are not properly guarded with backticks
while server is writting into binlog. Hence user variable names
like a` cannot be used in this context.
Fix: Properly quote these variables while
writting into binlog

Problem:-
using last_insert_id() on an auto_incremented bigint unsigned does
not work for values which are greater than max-bigint-signed.
Analysis:-
last_insert_id() returns the first auto_incremented value for a column
and an auto_incremented value can have only positive values.
In our code, when we are initializing a last_insert_id object, we are
taking it as a signed BIGINT, So when the auto_incremented value reaches
greater than max signed bigint, last_insert_id gives negative result.
Solution:
When we are fetching the value from last_insert_id, We are setting the
unsigned_flag, so that it take only unsigned BIGINT value.
Assertion happens due to missing NULL value check in
Item_func_round::fix_length_and_dec() function.
The fix: added NULL value check for second parameter.
In sql_class.cc, 'row_count', of type 'ha_rows', was used as last argument for
ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD which is
"Incorrect %-.32s value: '%-.128s' for column '%.192s' at row %ld".
So 'ha_rows' was used as 'long'.
On SPARC32 Solaris builds, 'long' is 4 bytes and 'ha_rows' is 'longlong' i.e. 8 bytes.
So the printf-like code was reading only the first 4 bytes.
Because the CPU is big-endian, 1LL is 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01
so the first four bytes yield 0. So the warning message had "row 0" instead of
"row 1" in test outfile_loaddata.test:
-Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 1
+Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 0
All error-messaging functions which internally invoke some printf-life function
are potential candidate for such mistakes.
One apparently easy way to catch such mistakes is to use
ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT (from my_attribute.h).
But this works only when call site has both:
a) the format as a string literal
b) the types of arguments.
So:
func(ER(ER_BLAH), 10);
will silently not be checked, because ER(ER_BLAH) is not known at
compile time (it is known at run-time, and depends on the chosen
language).
And
func("%s", a va_list argument);
has the same problem, as the *real* type of arguments is not
known at this site at compile time (it's known in some caller).
Moreover,
func(ER(ER_BLAH));
though possibly correct (if ER(ER_BLAH) has no '%' markers), will not
compile (gcc says "error: format not a string literal and no format
arguments").
Consequences:
1) ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT is here added only to functions which in practice
take "string literal" formats: "my_error_reporter" and "print_admin_msg".
2) it cannot be added to the other functions: my_error(),
push_warning_printf(), Table_check_intact::report_error(),
general_log_print().
To do a one-time check of functions listed in (2), the following
"static code analysis" has been done:
1) replace
my_error(ER_xxx, arguments for substitution in format)
with the equivalent
my_printf_error(ER_xxx,ER(ER_xxx), arguments for substitution in
format),
so that we have ER(ER_xxx) and the arguments *in the same call site*
2) add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT to push_warning_printf(),
Table_check_intact::report_error(), general_log_print()
3) replace ER(xxx) with the hard-coded English text found in
errmsg.txt (like: ER(ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR) is replaced with
"Unknown error"), so that a call site has the format as string literal
4) this way, ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT can effectively do its job
5) compile, fix errors detected by ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT
6) revert steps 1-2-3.
The present patch has no compiler error when submitted again to the
static code analysis above.
It cannot catch all problems though: see Field::set_warning(), in
which a call to push_warning_printf() has a variable error
(thus, not replacable by a string literal); I checked set_warning() calls
by hand though.
See also WL 5883 for one proposal to avoid such bugs from appearing
again in the future.
The issues fixed in the patch are:
a) mismatch in types (like 'int' passed to '%ld')
b) more arguments passed than specified in the format.
This patch resolves mismatches by changing the type/number of arguments,
not by changing error messages of sql/share/errmsg.txt. The latter would be wrong,
per the following old rule: errmsg.txt must be as stable as possible; no insertions
or deletions of messages, no changes of type or number of printf-like format specifiers,
are allowed, as long as the change impacts a message already released in a GA version.
If this rule is not followed:
- Connectors, which use error message numbers, will be confused (by insertions/deletions
of messages)
- using errmsg.sys of MySQL 5.1.n with mysqld of MySQL 5.1.(n+1)
could produce wrong messages or crash; such usage can easily happen if
installing 5.1.(n+1) while /etc/my.cnf still has --language=/path/to/5.1.n/xxx;
or if copying mysqld from 5.1.(n+1) into a 5.1.n installation.
When fixing b), I have verified that the superfluous arguments were not used in the format
in the first 5.1 GA (5.1.30 'bteam@astra04-20081114162938-z8mctjp6st27uobm').
Had they been used, then passing them today, even if the message doesn't use them
anymore, would have been necessary, as explained above.
Bug#11764671 57533: UNINITIALISED VALUES IN COPY_AND_CONVERT (SQL_STRING.CC) WITH CERTAIN CHA
When ROUND evaluates decimal result it uses Item::decimal
value as fraction value for the result. In some cases
Item::decimal is greater than real result fraction value
and uninitialised memory of result(decimal) buffer can be
used in further calculations. Issue is introduced by
Bug33143 fix. The fix is to remove erroneous assignment.
Assert fails due to overflow which happens in
Item_func_int_val::fix_num_length_and_dec() as
geometry functions have max_length value equal to
max_field_size(4294967295U). The fix is to skip
max_length calculation for some boundary cases.
Assertion happens due to missing initialization of unsigned_flag
for Item_func_set_user_var object. It leads to incorrect
calculation of decimal field size.
The fix is to add initialization of unsigned_flag.
Problem: wrong character set pointer was passed to my_strtoll10_mb2,
which led to DBUG_ASSERT failure in some cases.

--Recently discovered problem when a nested materialized derived table is used
before being populated and it leads to incorrect result
We have several modes when we should disable subquery evaluation.
The reasons for disabling are different. It could be
uselessness of the evaluation as in case of 'CREATE VIEW'
or 'PREPARE stmt', or we should disable subquery evaluation
if tables are not locked yet as it happens in bug#54475, or
too early evaluation of subqueries can lead to wrong result
as it happened in Bug#19077.
Main problem is that if subquery items are treated as const
they are evaluated in ::fix_fields(), ::fix_length_and_dec()
of the parental items as a lot of these methods have
Item::val_...() calls inside.
We have to make subqueries non-const to prevent unnecessary
subquery evaluation. At the moment we have different methods
for this. Here is a list of these modes:
1. PREPARE stmt;
We use UNCACHEABLE_PREPARE flag.
It is set during parsing in sql_parse.cc, mysql_new_select() for
each SELECT_LEX object and cleared at the end of PREPARE in
sql_prepare.cc, init_stmt_after_parse(). If this flag is set
subquery becomes non-const and evaluation does not happen.
2. CREATE|ALTER VIEW, SHOW CREATE VIEW, I_S tables which
process FRM files
We use LEX::view_prepare_mode field. We set it before
view preparation and check this flag in
::fix_fields(), ::fix_length_and_dec().
Some bugs are fixed using this approach,
some are not(Bug#57352, Bug#57703). The problem here is
that we have a lot of ::fix_fields(), ::fix_length_and_dec()
where we use Item::val_...() calls for const items.
3. Derived tables with subquery = wrong result(Bug19077)
The reason of this bug is too early subquery evaluation.
It was fixed by adding Item::with_subselect field
The check of this field in appropriate places prevents
const item evaluation if the item have subquery.
The fix for Bug19077 fixes only the problem with
convert_constant_item() function and does not cover
other places(::fix_fields(), ::fix_length_and_dec() again)
where subqueries could be evaluated.
Example:
CREATE TABLE t1 (i INT, j BIGINT);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1, 2), (2, 2), (3, 2);
SELECT * FROM (SELECT MIN(i) FROM t1
WHERE j = SUBSTRING('12', (SELECT * FROM (SELECT MIN(j) FROM t1) t2))) t3;
DROP TABLE t1;
4. Derived tables with subquery where subquery
is evaluated before table locking(Bug#54475, Bug#52157)
Suggested solution is following:
-Introduce new field LEX::context_analysis_only with the following
possible flags:
#define CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ONLY_PREPARE 1
#define CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ONLY_VIEW 2
#define CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ONLY_DERIVED 4
-Set/clean these flags when we perform
context analysis operation
-Item_subselect::const_item() returns
result depending on LEX::context_analysis_only.
If context_analysis_only is set then we return
FALSE that means that subquery is non-const.
As all subquery types are wrapped by Item_subselect
it allow as to make subquery non-const when
it's necessary.
assignments and comparison in query
A query that compares assignments of the same
user variable caused Valgrind warnings: access
to freed memory region.
In case of a DECIMAL argument the assignment
operator (:=) may return a pointer to a stored
value instead of its copy when evaluated.
The next assignment to the same variable may:
a) overwrite the stored value with a new one
and return the same pointer or even
b) reallocate stored value.
Thus, if we evaluate an assignment and keep
the result pointer and then evaluate another
assignment to the same variable, then the
kept result pointer of the first assignment
will point to unexpectedly changed data or
it may be a dead pointer.
That may cause wrong data or crash.
The user_var_entry::val_decimal method has
been modified to copy user variable data.
Bug#55794: ulonglong options of mysqld show wrong values.
Port the few remaining system variables to the correct mechanism --
range-check in check-stage (and throw error or warning at that point
as needed and depending on STRICTness), update in update stage.
Fix some signedness errors when retrieving sysvar values for display.
The problem is dividing by const value when
the result is out of supported range.
The fix:
-return LONGLONG_MIN if the result is out of supported range for DIV operator.
-return 0 if divisor is -1 for MOD operator.
Subquery executes twice, at top level JOIN::optimize and ::execute stages.
At first execution create_sort_index() function is called and
FT_SELECT object is created and destroyed. HANDLER::ft_handler is cleaned up
in the object destructor and at second execution FT_SELECT::get_next() method
returns error.
The fix is to reinit HANDLER::ft_handler field before re-execution of subquery.
KILL_BAD_DATA is returned
Two problems discovered with the LEAST()/GREATEST()
functions:
1. The check for a null value should happen even
after the second call to val_str() in the args. This is
important because two subsequent calls to the same
Item::val_str() may yield different results.
Fixed by checking for NULL value before dereferencing
the string result.
2. While looping over the arguments and evaluating them
the loop should stop if there was an error evaluating so far
or the statement was killed. Fixed by checking for error
and bailing out.
An user assignment variable expression that's
evaluated in a logical expression context
(Item::val_bool()) can be pre-calculated in a
temporary table for GROUP BY.
However when the expression value is used after the
temp table creation it was re-evaluated instead of
being read from the temp table due to a missing
val_bool_result() method.
Fixed by implementing the method.
Queries may crash, if
1) the GREATEST or the LEAST function has a mixed list of
numeric and LONGBLOB arguments and
2) the result of such a function goes through an intermediate
temporary table.
An Item that references a LONGBLOB field has max_length of
UINT_MAX32 == (2^32 - 1).
The current implementation of GREATEST/LEAST returns REAL
result for a mixed list of numeric and string arguments (that
contradicts with the current documentation, this contradiction
was discussed and it was decided to update the documentation).
The max_length of such a function call was calculated as a
maximum of argument max_length values (i.e. UINT_MAX32).
That max_length value of UINT_MAX32 was used as a length for
the intermediate temporary table Field_double to hold
GREATEST/LEAST function result.
The Field_double::val_str() method call on that field
allocates a String value.
Since an allocation of String reserves an additional byte
for a zero-termination, the size of String buffer was
set to (UINT_MAX32 + 1), that caused an integer overflow:
actually, an empty buffer of size 0 was allocated.
An initialization of the "first" byte of that zero-size
buffer with '\0' caused a crash.
The Item_func_min_max::fix_length_and_dec() has been
modified to calculate max_length for the REAL result like
we do it for arithmetical operators.

and reverse() function
3 problems fixed :
1. The reported problem : caused by incorrect parsing of
the file as ucs data resulting in wrong length of the parsed
string. Fixed by truncating the invalid trailing bytes
(non-complete multibyte characters) when reading from the file
2. LOAD DATA when reading from a proper UCS2 file wasn't
recognizing the new line characters. Fixed by first looking
if a byte is a new line (or any other special) character before
reading it as a part of a multibyte character.
3. When using user variables to hold the column data in LOAD
DATA the character set of the user variable was set incorrectly
to the database charset. Fixed by setting it to the charset
specified by LOAD DATA (if any).
DBUG_SYNC_POINT has at least one strong limitation that it's not defined
on all platforms. It has issues cooperating with @@debug.
All in all its functionality is superseded by DEBUG_SYNC facility and
there is no reason to maintain the old less flexible one.
Fixed with adding debug_sync_set_action() function as a facility to set up
a sync-action in the server sources code and re-writing existing simulations
(found 3) to use it.
Couple of tests have been reworked as well.
The patch offers a pattern for setting sync-points in replication threads
where the standard DEBUG_SYNC does not suffice to reach goals.
At the end of execution top level join execution
we cleanup this join with true argument.
It leads to underlying join cleanup(subquery) with true argument too
and to tmp_table_param->field array cleanup which is required later.
The problem is that Item_func_set_user_var does not set
result_filed which leads to unnecessary repeated excution of subquery
on final stage.
The fix is to set result_field for Item_func_set_user_var.
Bug #48370 Absolutely wrong calculations with GROUP BY and
decimal fields when using IF
Added the test cases in the above two bugs for regression
testing.
Added additional tests that demonstrate a incomplete fix.
Added a new factory method for Field_new_decimal to
create a field from an (decimal returning) Item.
In the new method made sure that all the precision and
length variables are capped in a proper way.
This is required because Item's can have larger precision
than the decimal fields and thus need to be capped when
creating a field based on an Item type.
Fixed the wrong typecast to Item_decimal.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
The problem was that creating a DECIMAL column from a decimal
value could lead to a failed assertion as decimal values can
have a higher precision than those attached to a table. The
assert could be triggered by creating a table from a decimal
with a large (> 30) scale. Also, there was a problem in
calculating the number of digits in the integral and fractional
parts if both exceeded the maximum number of digits permitted
by the new decimal type.
The solution is to ensure that truncation procedure is executed
when deducing a DECIMAL column from a decimal value of higher
precision. If the integer part is equal to or bigger than the
maximum precision for the DECIMAL type (65), the integer part
is truncated to fit and the fractional becomes zero. Otherwise,
the fractional part is truncated to fit into the space left
after the integer part is copied.
This patch borrows code and ideas from Martin Hansson's patch.
If the log_bin_trust_function_creators option is not defined, creating a stored
function requires either one of the modifiers DETERMINISTIC, NO SQL, or READS
SQL DATA. Executing a stored function should also follows the same rules if in
STATEMENT mode. However, this was not happening and a wrong error was being
printed out: ER_BINLOG_ROW_RBR_TO_SBR.
The patch makes the creation and execution compatible and prints out the correct
error ER_BINLOG_UNSAFE_ROUTINE when a stored function without one of the modifiers
above is executed in STATEMENT mode.
Using DECIMAL constants with more than 65 digits in CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT led to bogus errors in release builds or
assertion failures in debug builds.
The problem was in inconsistency in how DECIMAL constants and
fields are handled internally. We allow arbitrarily long
DECIMAL constants, whereas DECIMAL(M,D) columns are limited to
M<=65 and D<=30. my_decimal_precision_to_length() was used in
both Item and Field code and truncated precision to
DECIMAL_MAX_PRECISION when calculating value length without
adjusting precision and decimals. As a result, a DECIMAL
constant with more than 65 digits ended up having length less
than precision or decimals which led to assertion failures.
Fixed by modifying my_decimal_precision_to_length() so that
precision is truncated to DECIMAL_MAX_PRECISION only for Field
object which is indicated by the new 'truncate' parameter.
Another inconsistency fixed by this patch is how DECIMAL
constants and expressions are handled for CREATE ... SELECT.
create_tmp_field_from_item() (which is used for constants) was
changed as a part of the bugfix for bug #24907 to handle long
DECIMAL constants gracefully. Item_func::tmp_table_field()
(which is used for expressions) on the other hand was still
using a simplistic approach when creating a Field_new_decimal
from a DECIMAL expression.
