The root cause of the issue was that the CREATE FUNCTION grammar,
for User Defined Functions, was using the sp_name rule.
The sp_name rule is intended for fully qualified stored procedure names,
like either ident.ident, or just ident but with a default database
implicitly selected.
A UDF does not have a fully qualified name, only a name (ident), and should
not use the sp_name grammar fragment during parsing.
The fix is to re-organize the CREATE FUNCTION grammar, to better separate:
- creating UDF (no definer, can have AGGREGATE, simple ident)
- creating Stored Functions (definer, no AGGREGATE, fully qualified name)
With the test case provided, another issue was exposed which is also fixed:
the DROP FUNCTION statement was using sp_name and also failing when no database
is implicitly selected, when droping UDF functions.
The fix is also to change the grammar so that DROP FUNCTION works with
both the ident.ident syntax (to drop a stored function), or just the ident
syntax (to drop either a UDF or a Stored Function, in the current database)
If mysql_lock_tables fails because the lock was aborted, we need to
reset thd->some_tables_delete, otherwise we might loop indefinitely
because handler's tables are not closed in a standard way, meaning
that close_thread_tables() (which resets some_tables_deleted) is not
used.
This patch fixes sporadical failures of handler_myisam/innodb tests
which were introduced by previous fix for this bug.
Bug#29816 Syntactically wrong query fails with misleading error message
The core problem is that an SQL-invoked function name can be a <schema
qualified routine name> that contains no <schema name>, but the mysql
parser insists that all stored procedures (function, procedures and
triggers) must have a <schema name>, which is not true for functions.
This problem is especially visible when trying to create a function
or when a query contains a syntax error after a function call (in the
same query), both will fail with a "No database selected" message if
the session is not attached to a particular schema, but the first
one should succeed and the second fail with a "syntax error" message.
Part of the fix is to revamp the sp name handling so that a schema
name may be omitted for functions -- this means that the internal
function name representation may not have a dot, which represents
that the function doesn't have a schema name. The other part is
to place schema checks after the type (function, trigger or procedure)
of the routine is known.
This deadlock occurs when a client issues a HANDLER ... OPEN statement
that tries to open a table that has a pending name-lock on it by another
client that also needs a name-lock on some other table which is already
open and associated to a HANDLER instance owned by the first client.
The deadlock happens because the open_table() function will back-off
and wait until the name-lock goes away, causing a circular wait if some
other name-lock is also pending for one of the open HANDLER tables.
Such situation, for example, can be easily repeated by issuing a RENAME
TABLE command in such a way that the existing table is already open
as a HANDLER table by another client and this client tries to open
a HANDLER to the new table name.
The solution is to allow handler tables with older versions (marked for
flush) to be closed before waiting for the name-lock completion. This is
safe because no other name-lock can be issued between the flush and the
check for pending name-locks.
The test case for this bug is going to be committed into 5.1 because it
requires a test feature only avaiable in 5.1 (wait_condition).
This bug is a symptom of the way handler's tables are managed. The
most different aspect, compared to the conventional behavior, is that
the handler's tables are long lived, meaning that their lifetimes are
not bounded by the duration of the command that opened them. For this
effect the handler code uses its own list (handler_tables instead of
open_tables) to hold open handler tables so that the tables won't be
closed at the end of the command/statement. Besides the handler_tables
list, there is a hash (handler_tables_hash) which is used to associate
handler aliases to tables and to refresh the tables upon demand (flush
tables).
The current implementation doesn't work properly with refreshed tables
-- more precisely when flush commands are issued by other initiators.
This happens because when a handler open or read statement is being
processed, the associated table has to be opened or locked and, for this
matter, the open_tables and handler_tables lists are swapped so that the
new table being opened is inserted into the handler_tables list. But when
opening or locking the table, if the refresh version is different from the
thread refresh version then all used tables in the open_tables list (now
handler_tables) are refreshed. In the "refreshing" process the handler
tables are flushed (closed) without being properly unlinked from the
handler hash.
The current implementation also fails to properly discard handlers of
dropped tables, but this and other problems are going to be addressed
in the fixes for bugs 31397 and 31409.
The chosen approach tries to properly save and restore the table state
so that no table is flushed during the table open and lock operations.
The logic is almost the same as before with the list swapping, but with
a working glue code.
The test case for this bug is going to be committed into 5.1 because it
requires a test feature only avaiable in 5.1 (wait_condition).
This actually, fix for the patch for bug-27354. The problem with
the patch was that Item_func_sp::used_tables() was updated, but
Item_func_sp::const_item() was not. So, for Item_func_sp, we had
the following inconsistency:
- used_tables() returned RAND_TABLE, which means that the item
can produce "random" results;
- but const_item() returned TRUE, which means that the item is
a constant one.
The fix is to change Item_func_sp::const_item() behaviour: it must
return TRUE (an item is a constant one) only if a stored function
is deterministic and each of its arguments (if any) is a constant
item.
added get_field_default_value() function which obtains default value from the field
(used in store_create_info() & get_schema_column_record() functions)
The optimizer sets index traversal in reverse order only if there are
used key parts that are not compared to a constant.
However using the primary key as an ORDER BY suffix rendered the check
incomplete : going in reverse order must still be used even if
all the parts of the secondary key are compared to a constant.
Fixed by relaxing the check and set reverse traversal even when all
the secondary index keyparts are compared to a const.
Also account for the case when all the primary keys are compared to a
constant.
- The bug was caused by COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code using Unique object in
a way that assumed that BIT(N) column occupies a contiguous space in
temp_table->record[0] buffer.
- The fix is to make COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code instruct create_tmp_table to
create temporary table with column of type BIGINT, not BIT(N).
Declaring an all space column name in the SELECT FROM DUAL or in a view
leads to misleading warning message:
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '".
The Item::set_name method has been modified to raise warnings like
"Name ' ' has become ''" in case of the truncation of an all
space identifier to an empty string identifier instead of the
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '" warning message.
The problem was that aborted_threads variable was updated
twice when a client connection had been aborted.
The fix is to refactor a code to have aborted_threads updated
only in one place.
DELETE FROM ... USING ... statements with the following type of
ambiguous aliasing gave unexpected results:
DELETE FROM t1 AS alias USING t1, t2 AS alias WHERE t1.a = alias.a;
This query would leave table t1 intact but delete rows from t2.
Fixed by changing DELETE FROM ... USING syntax so that only alias
references (as opposed to alias declarations) may be used in FROM.
Invaldating a subset of a sufficiently large query cache can take a long time.
During this time the server is efficiently frozen and no other operation can
be executed. This patch addresses this problem by setting a time limit on
how long time a dictionary access request can take before giving up on the
attempt. This patch does not work for query cache invalidations issued by
DROP, ALTER or RENAME TABLE operations.
When dumping database from a 4.x server, the mysqldump client
inserted a delimiter sign inside special commentaries of the form:
/*!... CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS ... ;*/
During restoration that dump file was splitten by delimiter signs on
the client side, and the rest of some commentary strings was prepended
to following statements.
The 4x_server_emul test case option has been added for use with the
DBUG_EXECUTE_IF debugging macro. This option affects debug server
builds only to emulate particular behavior of a 4.x server for
the mysqldump client testing. Non-debugging builds are not affected.
