timestamp primary key
Since TIMESTAMP values are adjusted by the current time zone
settings in both numeric and string contexts, using any
expressions involving TIMESTAMP values as a
(sub)partitioning function leads to undeterministic behavior of
partitioned tables. The effect may vary depending on a storage
engine, it can be either incorrect data being retrieved or
stored, or an assertion failure. The root cause of this is the
fact that the calculated partition ID may differ from a
previously calculated ID for the same data due to timezone
adjustments of the partitioning expression value.
Fixed by disabling any expressions involving TIMESTAMP values
to be used in partitioning functions with the follwing two
exceptions:
1. Creating or altering into a partitioned table that violates
the above rule is not allowed, but opening existing such tables
results in a warning rather than an error so that such tables
could be fixed.
2. UNIX_TIMESTAMP() is the only way to get a
timezone-independent value from a TIMESTAMP column, because it
returns the internal representation (a time_t value) of a
TIMESTAMP argument verbatim. So UNIX_TIMESTAMP(timestamp_column)
is allowed and should be used to fix existing tables if one
wants to use TIMESTAMP columns with partitioning.
Running a SELECT query over an IBMDB2I table with a cp1250 character set
was producing an error 2027 (ibmdb2i error 2027: Error converting single-byte
sort sequence to UCS-2).
The QMY_DESCRIBE_RANGE API was returning error 2027 to the storage engine
because the CCSID used for a cp1250 column (870) does not match the CCSID
used by the DB2 sort sequences associated with cp1250_* collations (1153).
This was because the storage engine relies on a set of system APIs to
determine which CCSID value most closely matches a particular MySQL
character set. However, in the case of cp1250, the system is returning
CCSID 870, which does not have a codepoint for the euro symbol, making it
an incorrect match.
This patch overrides the selection of a compatible CCSID to always return
1153 for cp1250.
BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK was subject to replication db rules, and
caused the boundary of a transaction not recognized correctly
when these queries were ignored by the rules.
Fixed the problem by skipping replication db rules for these
statements.
Bug#34309: '_PC' macro redefinition
For reasons that are now a mystery, we had defined a CPP symbol to
help ancient compilers work better (in some way that's lost to history).
This interferes with at least one modern compiler.
Now, don't define the _PC symbol. Those other underscore-leading
symbols are suspect also, but at least the names aren't inscrutable.
Let's leave them for now.
Make the caller of Query_log_event, Execute_load_log_event
constructors and THD::binlog_query to provide the error code
instead of having the constructors to figure out the error code.
When doing ALTER TABLE, we forgot to point out that we actually have
ROW_FORMAT information (from the original table), so we dropped to
"sensible defaults". This affects both ALTER TABLE and OPTIMIZE TABLE
which may fall back on ALTER TABLE for InnoDB.
We now flag that we do indeed know the row-type, thereby preserving
compression-type etc.
No .test in 5.1 since we'd need a reasonable new plugin from InnoDB to
show this properly; in higher versions, maria can demonstrate this.
MySQL crashes if a user without proper privileges attempts to create a procedure.
The crash happens because more than one error state is pushed onto the Diagnostic
area. In this particular case the user is denied to implicitly create a new user
account with the implicitly granted privileges ALTER- and EXECUTE ROUTINE.
The new account is needed if the original user account contained a host mask.
A user account with a host mask is a distinct user account in this context.
An alternative would be to first get the most permissive user account which
include the current user connection and then assign privileges to that
account. This behavior change is considered out of scope for this bug patch.
The implicit assignment of privileges when a user creates a stored routine is a
considered to be a feature for user convenience and as such it is not
a critical operation. Any failure to complete this operation is thus considered
non-fatal (an error becomes a warning).
The patch back ports a stack implementation of the internal error handler interface.
This enables the use of multiple error handlers so that it is possible to intercept
and cancel errors thrown by lower layers. This is needed as a error handler already
is used in the call stack emitting the errors which needs to be converted.
wmemset was being used to fill the row buffers.
wmemset was intended to fill the buffer with
16-bit UCS2 pad values. However, the 64-bit
version of wmemset uses 32-bit wide characters
and thus filled the buffer incorrectly. In some
cases, the null byte map would be overwritten,
causing ctype_utf8.test and ibmdb2i_rir.test to
fail, giving the error message CPF5035.
This patch eliminates the use of wmemset to fill
the row buffer. wmemset has been replaced with
memset16, which always fills memory with 16-bit
values.
mysqldump --tab still dumped triggers to stdout rather than to
individual tables.
We now append triggers to the .sql file for the corresponding
table.
--events and --routines correspond to a database rather than a
table and will still go to stdout with --tab unless redirected
with --result-file (-r).
On 64-bit Windows: querying MERGE table with keys may cause
server crash.The problem is generic and may affect any statement
accessing MERGE table cardinality values.
When MERGE engine was copying cardinality statistics, it was
using incorrect size of element in cardinality statistics array
(sizeof(ptr)==8 instead of sizeof(ulong)==4), causing access
of memory beyond of the allocated bounds.
old_password() functions
The PASSWORD() and OLD_PASSWORD() functions could lead to
memory reads outside of an internal buffer when used with BLOB
arguments.
String::c_ptr() assumes there is at least one extra byte
in the internally allocated buffer when adding the trailing
'\0'. This, however, may not be the case when a String object
was initialized with externally allocated buffer.
The bug was fixed by adding an additional "length" argument to
make_scrambled_password_323() and make_scrambled_password() in
order to avoid String::c_ptr() calls for
PASSWORD()/OLD_PASSWORD().
However, since the make_scrambled_password[_323] functions are
a part of the client library ABI, the functions with the new
interfaces were implemented with the 'my_' prefix in their
names, with the old functions changed to be wrappers around
the new ones to maintain interface compatibility.
Dump all connection-related arguments when running mysqlcheck
from mysql_upgrade.
No test case, since the output depends on the test suite
configuration and platform.
doesn't find 'logger'
Due to a variable quoting mistake, the $PATH environment
variable isn't parsed correctly when searching for the
existence of the desired executable(s) (logger in this
case).
This patch removes the quotes.
The problem is that the server failed to follow the rule that
every X509 object retrieved using SSL_get_peer_certificate()
must be explicitly freed by X509_free(). This caused a memory
leak for builds linked against OpenSSL where the X509 object
is reference counted -- improper counting will prevent the
object from being destroyed once the session containing the
peer certificate is freed.
The solution is to explicitly free every X509 object used.
HAVING
When calculating GROUP BY the server caches some expressions. It does
that by allocating a string slot (Item_copy_string) and assigning the
value of the expression to it. This effectively means that the result
type of the expression can be changed from whatever it was to a string.
As this substitution takes place after the compile-time result type
calculation for IN but before the run-time type calculations,
it causes the type calculations in the IN function done at run time
to get unexpected results different from what was prepared at compile time.
In the CASE ... WHEN ... THEN ... statement there was a similar problem
and it was solved by artificially adding a STRING argument to the set of
types of the IN/CASE arguments at compile time, so if any of the
arguments of the CASE function changes its type to a string it will
still be covered by the information prepared at compile time.
stop/start slave
When stopping and restarting the slave while it is replicating
temporary tables, the server would crash or raise an assertion
failure. This was due to the fact that although temporary tables are
saved between slave threads restart, the reference to the thread in
use (table->in_use) was not being properly updated when the restart
happened (it would still reference the old/invalid thread instead of
the new one).
This patch addresses this issue by resetting the reference to the new
slave thread on slave thread restart.
