This bug in Field_string::cmp resulted in a wrong comparison
with keys in partial indexes over multi-byte character fields.
Given field a is declared as
a varchar(16) collate utf8_unicode_ci
INDEX(a(4)) gives us an example of such an index.
Wrong key comparisons could lead to wrong result sets if
the selected query execution plan used a range scan by
a partial index over a utf8 character field.
This also caused wrong results in many other cases.
can lead to a wrong result.
All date/time functions has the STRING result type thus their results are
compared as strings. The string date representation allows a user to skip
some of leading zeros. This can lead to wrong comparison result if a date/time
function result is compared to such a string constant.
The idea behind this bug fix is to compare results of date/time functions
and data/time constants as ints, because that date/time representation is
more exact. To achieve this the agg_cmp_type() is changed to take in the
account that a date/time field or an date/time item should be compared
as ints.
This bug fix is partially back ported from 5.0.
The agg_cmp_type() function now accepts THD as one of parameters.
In addition, it now checks if a date/time field/function is present in the
list. If so, it tries to coerce all constants to INT to make date/time
comparison return correct result. The field for the constant coercion is
taken from the Item_field or constructed from the Item_func. In latter case
the constructed field will be freed after conversion of all constant items.
Otherwise the result is same as before - aggregated with help of the
item_cmp_type() function.
From the Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec() function removed the part
which was converting date/time constants to int if possible. Now this is
done by the agg_cmp_type() function.
The new function result_as_longlong() is added to the Item class.
It indicates that the item is a date/time item and result of it can be
compared as int. Such items are date/time fields/functions.
Correct val_int() methods are implemented for classes Item_date_typecast,
Item_func_makedate, Item_time_typecast, Item_datetime_typecast. All these
classes are derived from Item_str_func and Item_str_func::val_int() converts
its string value to int without regard to the date/time type of these items.
Arg_comparator::set_compare_func() and Arg_comparator::set_cmp_func()
functions are changed to substitute result type of an item with the INT_RESULT
if the item is a date/time item and another item is a constant. This is done
to get a correct result of comparisons like date_time_function() = string_constant.
When a CREATE TABLE command created a table from a materialized
view id does not inherit default values from the underlying table.
Moreover the temporary table used for the view materialization
does not inherit those default values.
In the case when the underlying table contained ENUM fields it caused
misleading error messages. In other cases the created table contained
wrong default values.
The code was modified to ensure inheritance of default values for
materialized views.
The wrong value was being reported as the field_length for BIT
fields, resulting in confusion for at least Connector/J. The
field_length is now always the number of bits in the field, as
it should be.
- Added empty constructors and virtual destructors to many classes and structs
- Removed some usage of the offsetof() macro to instead use C++ class pointers
column is increasing when table is recreated with PS/SP":
make use of create_field::char_length more consistent in the code.
Reinit create_field::length from create_field::char_length
for every execution of a prepared statement (actually fixes the
bug).
- Fixed tests
- Optimized new code
- Fixed some unlikely core dumps
- Better bug fixes for:
- #14397 - OPTIMIZE TABLE with an open HANDLER causes a crash
- #14850 (ERROR 1062 when a quering a view using a Group By on a column that can be null
Field_date::store function'. Though the Field_date::store function almost unused
when protocol_version=10 additional check was added into it to store 4byte dates
properly. Effective test routine is not available so far due to protocol_version
is not a dynamic property and can not be modified with mysql-test script.
field.cc:
BLOB variations have number-in-bytes limit,
unlike CHAR/VARCHAR which have number-of-characters limits.
A tinyblob column can store up to 255 bytes.
In the case of basic Latin letters (which use 1 byte per character)
we can store up to 255 characters in a tinyblob column.
When passing an utf8 tinyblob column as an argument into
a function (e.g. COALESCE) we need to reserve 3*255 bytes.
I.e. multiply length in bytes to mbcharlen for the character set.
Although in reality a tinyblob column can never be 3*255 bytes long,
we need to set max_length to multiply to make fix_length_and_dec()
of the function-caller (e.g. COALESCE) calculate the correct max_length
for the column being created.
ctype_utf8.result, ctype_utf8.test:
Adding test case.
according to the standard.
The idea is to use Field-classes to implement stored routines
variables. Also, we should provide facade to Item-hierarchy
by Item_field class (it is necessary, since SRVs take part
in expressions).
The patch fixes the following bugs:
- BUG#8702: Stored Procedures: No Error/Warning shown for inappropriate data
type matching;
- BUG#8768: Functions: For any unsigned data type, -ve values can be passed
and returned;
- BUG#8769: Functions: For Int datatypes, out of range values can be passed
and returned;
- BUG#9078: STORED PROCDURE: Decimal digits are not displayed when we use
DECIMAL datatype;
- BUG#9572: Stored procedures: variable type declarations ignored;
- BUG#12903: upper function does not work inside a function;
- BUG#13705: parameters to stored procedures are not verified;
- BUG#13808: ENUM type stored procedure parameter accepts non-enumerated
data;
- BUG#13909: Varchar Stored Procedure Parameter always BINARY string (ignores
CHARACTER SET);
- BUG#14161: Stored procedure cannot retrieve bigint unsigned;
- BUG#14188: BINARY variables have no 0x00 padding;
- BUG#15148: Stored procedure variables accept non-scalar values;
field.cc:
Adding longlong range checking to return
LONGLONG_MIN or LONGLONG_MAX when out of range.
Using (longlong) cast only when range is ok.
cast.test:
Adding test case.
cast.result:
Fixing results accordingly.
Bad examples of usage of a string with its length fixed.
The incorrect length in the trigger file configuration descriptor
fixed (BUG#14090).
A hook for unknown keys added to the parser to support old .TRG files.
Initialized 'ptr' for a newly instantiated varstring field.
This is required by INSERT DELAYED.
No test case. This is a migration issue. There are two shell
scripts attached to the bug report. They can be used for testing.
test "length" first (otherwise when "length" is 0, the *from invalid access still triggers a Valgrind warning).
I wrote to the Valgrind authors in case this is something fixable in Valgrind (normally the
decision to issue a warning is based on the simulated CPU condition code, which should not be undefined here).
field::sort_key() now adds length last for varbinary/blob
VARBINARY/BLOB is now sorted by filesort so that shorter strings comes before longer ones
Fixed issues in test cases from last merge
