In the method Item_field::fix_fields we try to resolve the name of
the field against the names of the aliases that occur in the select
list. This is done by a call of the function find_item_in_list.
When this function finds several occurrences of the field name
it sends an error message to the error queue and returns 0.
Yet the code did not take into account that find_item_in_list
could return 0 and tried to dereference the returned value.
- configure --disable-grant-options defines DISABLE_GRANT_OPTIONS
- configure.js/cmake also updated
- if DISABLE_GRANT_OPTIONS is defined, mysqld no longer recognizes:
--bootstrap
--init-file
--skip-grant-tables
Scripts which rely on those three options are modified to check the environment for MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP; it should be set to the full path of a mysqld which does handle those options.
For example:
$ export MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP
$ MYSQLD_BOOTSTRAP=/path/to/full/MySQL/bin/mysqld
$ mysql_install_db
$ make test
used.
The Item::save_in_field() function is called from fill_record() to fill the
new row with data while execution of the CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement.
Item::save_in_field() calls val_xxx() methods in order to get values.
val_xxx() methods do not take into account the result field. Due to this
Item_func_set_user_var::val_xxx() methods returns values from the original
table, not from the temporary one.
The save_in_field() member function is added to the Item_func_set_user_var
class. It detects whether the result field should be used and properly updates
the value of the user variable.
A BINARY field is represented by the Field_string class. The space character
is used as the filler for unused characters in such a field. But a BINARY field
should use \x00 instead.
Field_string:reset() now detects whether the current field is a BINARY one
and if so uses the \x00 character as a default value filler.

The problem was that when memory was exhausted HEAP engine could crash
(GROUP BY uses HEAP TABLE). Alternatively, if SET was used, it could
report an error "You may only use constant expressions with SET" instead
of "Out of memory (Needed NNNNNN bytes)".
The solution is:
- pass MY_WME to (some) calls to my_malloc() to get correct message.
- fix heap_write() so that the first key is skipped during cleanup
on ENOMEM because it wasn't inserted and doesn't have to be
deleted.
No test case is provided because we can't test out-of-memory behaviour
in our current test framework.
correctly in some cases".
In short, calls to a stored function located in another database
than the default database, may fail to replicate if the call was made
by SET, SELECT, or DO.
Longer: when a stored function is called from a statement which does not go
to binlog ("SET @a=somedb.myfunc()", "SELECT somedb.myfunc()",
"DO somedb.myfunc()"), this crafted statement is binlogged:
"SELECT myfunc();" (accompanied with a mention of the default database
if there is one). So, if "somedb" is not the default database,
the slave would fail to find myfunc(). The fix is to specify the
function's database name in the crafted binlogged statement, like this:
"SELECT somedb.myfunc();". Test added in rpl_sp.test.
The optimizer removes expressions from GROUP BY/DISTINCT
if they happen to participate in a <expression> = <const>
predicates of the WHERE clause (the idea being that if
it's always equal to a constant it can't have multiple
values).
However for predicates where the expression and the
constant item are of different result type this is not
valid (e.g. a string column compared to 0).
Fixed by additional check of the result types of the
expression and the constant and if they differ the
expression don't get removed from the group by list.
This bug appeared after the patch for bug 21390 that had added some code
to handle outer joins with no matches after substitution of a const
table in an efficient way. That code as it is cannot be applied to the case
of nested outer join operations. Being applied to the queries with
nested outer joins the code can cause crashes or wrong result sets.
The fix blocks row substitution for const inner tables of an outer join
if the inner operand is not a single table.

Multi-table delete that is optimized with QUICK_RANGE reports table
corruption.
DELETE statement must not use KEYREAD optimization, and sets
table->no_keyread to 1. This was ignored in QUICK_RANGE optimization.
With this fix QUICK_RANGE optimization honors table->no_keyread
value and does not enable KEYREAD when it is requested.
When only one row was present, the subtraction of nearly the same number
resulted in catastropic cancellation, introducing an error in the
VARIANCE calculation near 1e-15. That was sqrt()ed to get STDDEV, the
error was escallated to near 1e-8.
The simple fix of testing for a row count of 1 and forcing that to yield
0.0 is insufficient, as two rows of the same value should also have a
variance of 0.0, yet the error would be about the same.
So, this patch changes the formula that computes the VARIANCE to be one
that is not subject to catastrophic cancellation.
In addition, it now uses only (faster-than-decimal) floating point numbers
to calculate, and renders that to other types on demand.
An update that used a join of a table to itself and modified the
table on one side of the join reported the table as crashed or
updated wrong rows.
Fixed by creating temporary table for self-joined multi update statement.
Handling of large signed/unsigned values was not consistent, so some string functions could return bogus results.
The current fix is to simply patch up the val_str() methods for those string items.
It would be good clean this code up in general, to make similar problems much harder to make. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
If SELECT-part of CREATE VIEW statement contains '\Z',
it is not handled correctly.
The problem was in String::print().
Symbol with code 032 (26) is replaced with '\z',
which is not supported by the lexer.
The fix is to replace the symbol with '\Z'.
Applied innodb-5.0-ss1040 and innodb-5.0-ss1099 snapshots.
Bugs fixed:
- Bug #21468: InnoDB crash during recovery with corrupted data pages: XA bug?
- Bug #24299: Identifiers in foreign keys cannot contain U+0160, U+0360, ..., U+FF60
- Bug #24386: Performance degradation caused by instrumentation in mutex_struct
- Bug #24712: SHOW TABLE STATUS for file-per-table showing incorrect time fields
Having broken .frm, particulary number of field names does
not match number of fields, causes server crash.
Refuse to open a table if number of field names in a table
is not equal to number of fields in a table.
No test case, since it requires broken .frm file.

When deleting a user defined function MySQL must remove it from both the
in-memory hash table and the mysql.proc system table.
Finding (and removal therefore) from the internal hash table is case
insensitive (or whatever the default charset is), whereas finding and
removal from the system table is case sensitive.
As a result if you supply a function name that is not in the same character
case to DROP FUNCTION the server will remove the function only from the
in-memory hash table and will keep the row in mysql.proc system table.
This will cause inconsistency between the two structures (that is fixed
only by restarting the server).
Fixed by using the name in the precise case (from the in-memory hash table)
to delete the row in the mysql.proc system table.
Problem:
When creating a temporary field for a temporary table in create_tmp_field_from_field(), a resulting field is created as an exact copy of an original one (in Field::new_field()). However, Field_enum and Field_set contain a pointer (typelib) to memory allocated in the parent table's MEM_ROOT, which under some circumstances may be deallocated later by the time a temporary table is used.
Solution:
Override the new_field() method for Field_enum and Field_set and create a separate copy of the typelib structure in there.
Blocked evaluation of constant objects of the classes
Item_func_is_null and Item_is_not_null_test at the
prepare phase in the cases when the objects used subqueries.
Removed an assertion that was not valid for the cases where the query
in a prepared statement contained a single-row non-correlated
subquery that was used as an argument of the IS NULL predicate.
