Bug#12985021 SIMPLE QUERY WITH DECIMAL NUMBERS TAKE AN
When parsing the fractional part of a string which
is to be converted to double, we can stop after a few digits:
the extra digits will not contribute to the actual result anyways.
Extra fix: 'if (p5 < p5_a + P5A_MAX)' is not portable.
p5 starts out pointing to a static array, then may point
to a buffer on the stack, then may point to malloc()ed memory.
- Ported relevant changes from the upstream version to not
break strict-aliasing rules and to fix compiler warnings and
and infinite loops caused by that issue.
- Fixed compilation with Honor_FLT_ROUNDS defined.
- Fixed an unused variable warning.
The failing assertion was written with the assumption that a NULL
string can never be passed to my_strtod(). However, an empty string
may be passed under some circumstances by passing str == NULL and
*end == NULL.
Fixed the assertion to take the above case into account.
to string conversions and vice versa"
Initial import of the dtoa.c code and custom wrappers around it
to allow its usage from the server code.
Conversion of FLOAT/DOUBLE values to DECIMAL ones or strings
and vice versa has been significantly reworked. As the new
algoritms are more precise than the older ones, results of such
conversions may not always match those obtained from older
server versions. This in turn may break compatibility for some
applications.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
- bug #12860 "Difference in zero padding of exponent between
Unix and Windows"
- bug #21497 "DOUBLE truncated to unusable value"
- bug #26788 "mysqld (debug) aborts when inserting specific
numbers into char fields"
- bug #24541 "Data truncated..." on decimal type columns
without any good reason"
