1. Introduce parse_sql() as a high-level replacement for MYSQLparse().
parse_sql() is responsible to switch and restore "parser context"
(THD::m_lip for now).
2. Fix typo in sp.cc: THD::spcont should be reset *before* calling
the parser.
Coding style: classes start with a capital letter.
Rename some classes related to parsing:
create_field -> Create_field
foreign_key -> Foreign_key
key_part_spec -> Key_part_spec
- A race condition caused brief unavailablility when trying to acccess
a table.
- The variable 'grant_option' was removed to resolve the race condition and
to simplify the design pattern. This flag was originally intended to optimize
grant checks.
Bug#4968 ""Stored procedure crash if cursor opened on altered table"
Bug#6895 "Prepared Statements: ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN does nothing"
Bug#19182 "CREATE TABLE bar (m INT) SELECT n FROM foo; doesn't work from
stored procedure."
Bug#19733 "Repeated alter, or repeated create/drop, fails"
Bug#22060 "ALTER TABLE x AUTO_INCREMENT=y in SP crashes server"
Bug#24879 "Prepared Statements: CREATE TABLE (UTF8 KEY) produces a
growing key length" (this bug is not fixed in 5.0)
Re-execution of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE
statements in stored routines or as prepared statements caused
incorrect results (and crashes in versions prior to 5.0.25).
In 5.1 the problem occured only for CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE
SELECT and CREATE TABLE with INDEX/DATA DIRECTOY options).
The problem of bugs 4968, 19733, 19282 and 6895 was that functions
mysql_prepare_table, mysql_create_table and mysql_alter_table are not
re-execution friendly: during their operation they modify contents
of LEX (members create_info, alter_info, key_list, create_list),
thus making the LEX unusable for the next execution.
In particular, these functions removed processed columns and keys from
create_list, key_list and drop_list. Search the code in sql_table.cc
for drop_it.remove() and similar patterns to find evidence.
The fix is to supply to these functions a usable copy of each of the
above structures at every re-execution of an SQL statement.
To simplify memory management, LEX::key_list and LEX::create_list
were added to LEX::alter_info, a fresh copy of which is created for
every execution.
The problem of crashing bug 22060 stemmed from the fact that the above
metnioned functions were not only modifying HA_CREATE_INFO structure
in LEX, but also were changing it to point to areas in volatile memory
of the execution memory root.
The patch solves this problem by creating and using an on-stack
copy of HA_CREATE_INFO in mysql_execute_command.
Additionally, this patch splits the part of mysql_alter_table
that analizes and rewrites information from the parser into
a separate function - mysql_prepare_alter_table, in analogy with
mysql_prepare_table, which is renamed to mysql_prepare_create_table.
Don't try determine stack direction at configure time

Use fourth argument to AC_TRY_RUN, to be used in cross compilation
Don't try determine stack direction at configure time
- The "mysql client in mysqld"(which is used by
replication and federated) should use alarms instead of setting
socket timeout value if the rest of the server uses alarm. By
always calling 'my_net_set_write_timeout'
or 'my_net_set_read_timeout' when changing the timeout value(s), the
selection whether to use alarms or timeouts will be handled by
ifdef's in those two functions.
- Move declaration of 'vio_timeout' into "vio_priv.h"
Bug #23667 "CREATE TABLE LIKE is not isolated from alteration
by other connections"
Bug #18950 "CREATE TABLE LIKE does not obtain LOCK_open"
As well as:
Bug #25578 "CREATE TABLE LIKE does not require any privileges
on source table".
The first and the second bugs resulted in various errors and wrong
binary log order when one tried to execute concurrently CREATE TABLE LIKE
statement and DDL statements on source table or DML/DDL statements on its
target table.
The problem was caused by incomplete protection/table-locking against
concurrent statements implemented in mysql_create_like_table() routine.
We solve it by simply implementing such protection in proper way.
Most of actual work for 5.1 was already done by fix for bug 20662 and
preliminary patch changing locking in ALTER TABLE.
The third bug allowed user who didn't have any privileges on table create
its copy and therefore circumvent privilege check for SHOW CREATE TABLE.
This patch solves this problem by adding privilege check, which was missing.
Finally it also removes some duplicated code from mysql_create_like_table()
and thus fixes bug #26869 "TABLE_LIST::table_name_length inconsistent with
TABLE_LIST::table_name".
The problem reported is a compile bug,
reported by the development GCC team with GCC 4.2.
The original issue can no longer be reproduced in MySQL 5.1,
since the configure script no longer define HAVE_ATOMIC_ADD,
which caused the Linux atomic functions to be used (and cause a problem
with an invalid cast).
This patch implements some code cleanup for 5.1 only, which was identified
during the investigation of this issue.
With this patch, statistics maintained in THD::status_var are by definition
owned by the running thread, and do not need to be protected against race
conditions. These statistics are maintained by the status_var_* helpers,
which do not require any lock.
Bug #20662 "Infinite loop in CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT
with locked tables"
Bug #20903 "Crash when using CREATE TABLE .. SELECT and triggers"
Bug #24738 "CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is not isolated properly"
Bug #24508 "Inconsistent results of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT when
temporary table exists"
Deadlock occured when one tried to execute CREATE TABLE IF NOT
EXISTS ... SELECT statement under LOCK TABLES which held
read lock on target table.
Attempt to execute the same statement for already existing
target table with triggers caused server crashes.
Also concurrent execution of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement
and other statements involving target table suffered from
various races (some of which might've led to deadlocks).
Finally, attempt to execute CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in case
when a temporary table with same name was already present
led to the insertion of data into this temporary table and
creation of empty non-temporary table.
All above problems stemmed from the old implementation of CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT in which we created, opened and locked target
table without any special protection in a separate step and not
with the rest of tables used by this statement.
This underminded deadlock-avoidance approach used in server
and created window for races. It also excluded target table
from prelocking causing problems with trigger execution.
The patch solves these problems by implementing new approach to
handling of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT for base tables.
We try to open and lock table to be created at the same time as
the rest of tables used by this statement. If such table does not
exist at this moment we create and place in the table cache special
placeholder for it which prevents its creation or any other usage
by other threads.
We still use old approach for creation of temporary tables.
Note that we have separate fix for 5.0 since there we use slightly
different less intrusive approach.
The following type conversions was done:
- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t
Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s.
Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
- db_dump()
- my_net_write()
- net_write_command()
- net_store_data()
- DBUG_DUMP()
- decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.
Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
(portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
- Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
strmake_root()/strdup_root().
- Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
- Simpler loops in client-simple.c
Add "two liner" to mysqld --bootstrap that allows
wo write scripts that can be run both by mysql and mysqld --bootstrap
Remove duplicate create of MySQL system tables
Print information if net_clear() skipped bytes (As this otherwise hides critical timeing bugs)
Added DBUG_ASSERT if we get packets out of order
mysql_change_user() could on error send multiple packets, which caused mysql_client_test to randomly fail
when there are no up-to-date system tables to support it:
- initialize the scheduler before reporting "Ready for connections".
This ensures that warnings, if any, are printed before "Ready for
connections", and this message is not mangled.
- do not abort the scheduler if there are no system tables
- check the tables once at start up, remember the status and disable
the scheduler if the tables are not up to date.
If one attempts to use the scheduler with bad tables,
issue an error message.
- clean up the behaviour of the module under LOCK TABLES and pre-locking
mode
- make sure implicit commit of Events DDL works as expected.
- add more tests
Collateral clean ups in the events code.
