The LEAST/GREATEST functions compared DATE/DATETIME values as
strings which in some cases could lead to a wrong result.
A new member function called cmp_datetimes() is added to the
Item_func_min_max class. It compares arguments in DATETIME context
and returns index of the least/greatest argument.
The Item_func_min_max::fix_length_and_dec() function now detects when
arguments should be compared in DATETIME context and sets the newly
added flag compare_as_dates. It indicates that the cmp_datetimes() function
should be called to get a correct result.
Item_func_min_max::val_xxx() methods are corrected to call the
cmp_datetimes() function when needed.
Objects of the Item_splocal class now stores and reports correct original
field type.
some rollup rows (rows with NULLs for grouping attributes) if GROUP BY
list contained constant expressions.
This happened because the results of constant expressions were not put
in the temporary table used for duplicate elimination. In fact a constant
item from the GROUP BY list of a ROLLUP query can be replaced for an
Item_null_result object when a rollup row is produced .
Now the JOIN::rollup_init function wraps any constant item referenced in
the GROYP BY list of a ROLLUP query into an Item_func object of a special
class that is never detected as constant item. This ensures creation of
fields for such constant items in temporary tables and guarantees right
results when the result of the rollup operation first has to be written
into a temporary table, e.g. in the cases when duplicate elimination is
required.
- unsigned flag was not handled correctly for a number of mathematical funcions, which led to incorrect results
- passing large values as the number of decimals to ROUND() resulted in incorrect results and even server crashes in some cases
- reverted the fix and the testcase for bug #10083 as it violates the manual
- fixed some testcases which relied on broken ROUND() behavior
LEFT JOIN
Fixed that in certain situations MATCH ... AGAINST returns false hits
for NULLs produced by LEFT JOIN when there is no fulltext index
available.
Possible problems: function call could be eliminated from where class and only
be evaluated once; function can be evaluated during table and item setup phase which could
cause side effects not to be registered in binlog.
Fixed with introducing func_item_sp::used_tables() returning the correct table_map constant.
- Stored procedures returning unsinged values returns signed values if
text protocol is used. The reason is that the stored proceedure item
Item_func_sp wasn't initializing the member variables properly based
on the information contained in the associated result field.
- The patch is to upon field-item association, ::fix_fields, initialize
the member variables in appropriate order.
- Field type of an Item_func_sp was hard coded to MYSQL_TYPE_VARCHAR.
This is changed to return the type of the actual result field.
- Member function name sp_result_field was refactored to the more
appropriate init_result_field.
- Member function name find_and_check_access was refactored to
sp_check_access.
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.

When implicitly converting string fields to numbers the
string-to-number conversion error was not sent to the client.
Added code to send the conversion error as warning.
We also need to prevent generation of warnings from the places
where val_xxx() methods are called for the sole purpose of updating
the Item::null_value flag.
To achieve that a special function is added (and called) :
update_null_value(). This function will set the no_errors flag and
will call val_xxx(). The warning generation in Field_string::val_xxx()
will use the flag when generating the conversion warnings.

The SQL parser was using Item::name to transfer user defined function attributes
to the user defined function (udf). It was not distinguishing between user defined
function call arguments and stored procedure call arguments. Setting Item::name
was causing Item_ref::print() method to print the argument as quoted identifiers
and caused views that reference aggregate functions as udf call arguments (and
rely on Item::print() for the text of the view to store) to throw an undefined
identifier error.
Overloaded Item_ref::print to print aggregate functions as such when printing
the references to aggregate functions taken out of context by split_sum_func2()
Fixed the parser to properly detect using AS clause in stored procedure arguments
as an error.
Fixed printing the arguments of udf call to print properly the udf attribute.
Note: bug#21726 does not directly apply to 4.1, as it doesn't have stored
procedures. However, 4.1 had some bugs that were fixed in 5.0 by the
patch for bug#21726, and this patch is a backport of those fixes.
Namely, in 4.1 it fixes:
- LAST_INSERT_ID(expr) didn't return value of expr (4.1 specific).
- LAST_INSERT_ID() could return the value generated by current
statement if the call happens after the generation, like in
CREATE TABLE t1 (i INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, j INT);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (NULL, 0), (NULL, LAST_INSERT_ID());
- Redundant binary log LAST_INSERT_ID_EVENTs could be generated.
Non-upper-level INSERTs (the ones in the body of stored procedure,
stored function, or trigger) into a table that have AUTO_INCREMENT
column didn't affected the result of LAST_INSERT_ID() on this level.
The problem was introduced with the fix of bug 6880, which in turn was
introduced with the fix of bug 3117, where current insert_id value was
remembered on the first call to LAST_INSERT_ID() (bug 3117) and was
returned from that function until it was reset before the next
_upper-level_ statement (bug 6880).
The fix for bug#21726 brings back the behaviour of version 4.0, and
implements the following: remember insert_id value at the beginning
of the statement or expression (which at that point equals to
the first insert_id value generated by the previous statement), and
return that remembered value from LAST_INSERT_ID() or @@LAST_INSERT_ID.
Thus, the value returned by LAST_INSERT_ID() is not affected by values
generated by current statement, nor by LAST_INSERT_ID(expr) calls in
this statement.
Version 5.1 does not have this bug (it was fixed by WL 3146).
- Honor unsigned_flag in the corresponding functions
- Use compare_int_signed_unsigned()/compare_int_unsigned_signed() instead of explicit comparison in GREATEST() and LEAST()
equal constant under any circumstances.
In fact this substitution can be allowed if the field is
not of a type string or if the field reference serves as
an argument of a comparison predicate.
- Fix typo in Item_func_export_set::fix_length_and_dec() which caused character set aggregation to fail
- Remove default argument from last arg of agg_arg_charsets() function, to reduce potential errors
used.
Sorting by RAND() uses a temporary table in order to get a correct results.
User defined variable was set during filling the temporary table and later
on it is substituted for its value from the temporary table. Due to this
it contains the last value stored in the temporary table.
Now if the result_field is set for the Item_func_set_user_var object it
updates variable from the result_field value when being sent to a client.
The Item_func_set_user_var::check() now accepts a use_result_field
parameter. Depending on its value the result_field or the args[0] is used
to get current value.
When there is no index defined filesort is used to sort the result of a
query. If there is a function in the select list and the result set should be
ordered by it's value then this function will be evaluated twice. First time to
get the value of the sort key and second time to send its value to a user.
This happens because filesort when sorts a table remembers only values of its
fields but not values of functions.
All functions are affected. But taking into account that SP and UDF functions
can be both expensive and non-deterministic a temporary table should be used
to store their results and then sort it to avoid twice SP evaluation and to
get a correct result.
If an expression referenced in an ORDER clause contains a SP or UDF
function, force the use of a temporary table.
A new Item_processor function called func_type_checker_processor is added
to check whether the expression contains a function of a particular type.
context.
Routine arguments were evaluated in the security context of the routine
itself, not in the caller's context.
The bug is fixed the following way:
- Item_func_sp::find_and_check_access() has been split into two
functions: Item_func_sp::find_and_check_access() itself only
finds the function and check that the caller have EXECUTE privilege
on it. New function set_routine_security_ctx() changes security
context for SUID routines and checks that definer have EXECUTE
privilege too.
- new function sp_head::execute_trigger() is called from
Table_triggers_list::process_triggers() instead of
sp_head::execute_function(), and is effectively just as the
sp_head::execute_function() is, with all non-trigger related code
removed, and added trigger-specific security context switch.
- call to Item_func_sp::find_and_check_access() stays outside
of sp_head::execute_function(), and there is a code in
sql_parse.cc before the call to sp_head::execute_procedure() that
checks that the caller have EXECUTE privilege, but both
sp_head::execute_function() and sp_head::execute_procedure() call
set_routine_security_ctx() after evaluating their parameters,
and restore the context after the body is executed.
