The optimizer pulls up aggregate functions which should be aggregated in
an outer select. At some point it may substitute such a function for a field
in the temporary table. The setup_copy_fields function doesn't take this
into account and may overrun the copy_field buffer.
Fixed by filtering out the fields referenced through the specialized
reference for aggregates (Item_aggregate_ref).
Added an assertion to make sure bugs that cause similar discrepancy
don't go undetected.
from stored procedure.
Problem: we replace all references to local variables in stored procedures
with NAME_CONST(name, value) logging to the binary log. However, if the
value's collation differs we might get an 'illegal mix of collation'
error as we don't pass the collation to the function.
Fix: pass the value's collation to NAME_CONST().
Note: actually we should pass to NAME_CONST() the value's derivation as well.
It's impossible without the parser modifying. Now we always set the
derivation to DERIVATION_IMPLICIT, the same as local variables have.
The fix for bug 31887 was incomplete : it assumes that all the
field types returned by the IS_NUM macro are descendants of
Item_num and tries to zero-fill the values before doing constant
substitution with such fields when they are compared to constant string
values.
The only exception to this is Field_timestamp : it's in the IS_NUM
macro, but is not a descendant of Field_num.
Fixed by excluding timestamp fields (Field_timestamp) when zero-filling
when converting the constant to compare with to a string.
Note that this will not exclude the timestamp columns from const
propagation.
This patch also fixes bugs 36963 and 35600.
- In many places a view was confused with an anonymous derived
table, i.e. access checking was skipped. Fixed by introducing a
predicate to tell the difference between named and anonymous
derived tables.
- When inserting fields for "SELECT * ", there was no
distinction between base tables and views, where one should be
made. View privileges are checked elsewhere.
INSERT .. SELECT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE col=DEFAULT
In order to get correct values from update fields that
belongs to the SELECT part in the INSERT .. SELECT .. ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statement, the server adds referenced
fields to the select list. Part of the code that does this
transformation is shared between implementations of
the DEFAULT(col) function and the DEFAULT keyword (in
the col=DEFAULT expression), and an implementation of
the DEFAULT keyword is incomplete.
Send_field.org_col_name has broken value on secondary execution.
It happens when result field is created from the field which belongs to view
due to forgotten assignment of some Send_field attributes.
The fix:
set Send_field.org_col_name,org_table_name with correct value during Send_field intialization.
min() and max() functions are implemented in MySQL as macros.
This means that max(a,b) is expanded to: ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
Note how 'a' is quoted two times.
Now imagine 'a' is a recursive function call that's several 10s of levels deep.
And the recursive function does max() with a function arg as well to dive into
recursion.
This means that simple function call can take most of the clock time.
Identified and fixed several such calls to max()/min() : including the IF()
sql function implementation.
Bug#35658 (An empty binary value leads to mysqld crash)
Before this fix, the following token
b''
caused the parser to crash when reading the binary value from the empty string.
The crash was caused by:
ptr+= max_length - 1;
because max_length is unsigned and was 0, causing an overflow.
With this fix, an empty binary literal b'' is parsed as a binary value 0,
in Item_bin_string.

WL#4165 Prepared statements: validation
WL#4166 Prepared statements: automatic re-prepare
Fixes
Bug#27430 Crash in subquery code when in PS and table DDL changed after PREPARE
Bug#27690 Re-execution of prepared statement after table was replaced with a view crashes
Bug#27420 A combination of PS and view operations cause error + assertion on shutdown
The basic idea of the patch is to keep track of table metadata between
prepared statement prepare and execute. If some table used in the statement
has changed, the prepared statement is re-prepared before execution.
See WL#4165 and WL#4166 contents and comments in the code for details
of the implementation.
Mixing aggregate functions and non-grouping columns is not allowed in the
ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY mode. However in some cases the error wasn't thrown because
of insufficient check.
In order to check more thoroughly the new algorithm employs a list of outer
fields used in a sum function and a SELECT_LEX::full_group_by_flag.
Each non-outer field checked to find out whether it's aggregated or not and
the current select is marked accordingly.
All outer fields that are used under an aggregate function are added to the
Item_sum::outer_fields list and later checked by the Item_sum::check_sum_func
function.
Queries like:
SELECT ROW(1, 2) IN (SELECT t1.a, 2)
FROM t1 GROUP BY t1.a
or
SELECT ROW(1, 2) IN (SELECT t1.a, 2 FROM t2)
FROM t1 GROUP BY t1.a
lead to assertion failure in the
Item_in_subselect::row_value_transformer method in debugging
build, or to unexpected error message in release build:
ERROR 1247 (42S22): Reference '<list ref>' not supported (forward
reference in item list)
Unexpected error message and assertion failure have been
eliminated.
The problem is that passing anything other than a integer to a limit
clause in a prepared statement would fail. This limitation was introduced
to avoid replication problems (e.g: replicating the statement with a
string argument would cause a parse failure in the slave).
The solution is to convert arguments to the limit clause to a integer
value and use this converted value when persisting the query to the log.
NAME_CONST('whatever', -1) * MAX(whatever) bombed since -1 was
not seen as constant, but as FUNCTION_UNARY_MINUS(constant)
while we are at the same time pretending it was a basic const
item. This confused the aggregate handlers in exciting ways.
We now make NAME_CONST() behave more consistently.
between 5.0 and 5.1.
The problem was that in the patch for Bug#11986 it was decided
to store original query in UTF8 encoding for the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
This approach however turned out to be quite difficult to implement
properly. The main problem is to preserve the same IS-output after
dump/restore.
So, the fix is to rollback to the previous functionality, but also
to fix it to support multi-character-set-queries properly. The idea
is to generate INFORMATION_SCHEMA-query from the item-tree after
parsing view declaration. The IS-query should:
- be completely in UTF8;
- not contain character set introducers.
For more information, see WL4052.
breaks replication
NAME_CONST() didn't replicate constant character set and collation
correctly.
With this fix NAME_CONST() inherits collation from the value argument.
