DELETE FROM ... USING ... statements with the following type of
ambiguous aliasing gave unexpected results:
DELETE FROM t1 AS alias USING t1, t2 AS alias WHERE t1.a = alias.a;
This query would leave table t1 intact but delete rows from t2.
Fixed by changing DELETE FROM ... USING syntax so that only alias
references (as opposed to alias declarations) may be used in FROM.
When dumping database from a 4.x server, the mysqldump client
inserted a delimiter sign inside special commentaries of the form:
/*!... CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS ... ;*/
During restoration that dump file was splitten by delimiter signs on
the client side, and the rest of some commentary strings was prepended
to following statements.
The 4x_server_emul test case option has been added for use with the
DBUG_EXECUTE_IF debugging macro. This option affects debug server
builds only to emulate particular behavior of a 4.x server for
the mysqldump client testing. Non-debugging builds are not affected.
Currently the Last_query_cost session status variable shows
only the cost of a single flat subselect. For complex queries
(with subselects or unions etc) Last_query_cost is not valid
as it was showing the cost for the last optimized subselect.
Fixed by reseting to zero Last_query_cost when the complete
cost of the query cannot be determined.
Last_query_cost will be non-zero only for single flat queries.
The optimization that uses a unique index to remove GROUP BY, did not
ensure that the index was actually used, thus violating the ORDER BY
that is impled by GROUP BY.
Fixed by replacing GROUP BY with ORDER BY if the GROUP BY clause contains
a unique index. In case GROUP BY ... ORDER BY null is used, GROUP BY is
simply removed.
Although the query cache doesn't support retrieval of statements containing
column level access control, it was still possible to cache such statements
thus wasting memory.
This patch extends the access control check on the target tables to avoid
caching a statement with column level restrictions.
Views are excepted and can be cached but only retrieved by super user account.

HEAP tables can't index BIT fields. Due to this when grouping by such fields is
needed they are converted to a fields of the LONG type when temporary table
is being created. But a side effect of this is that a wrong type of BIT
fields is returned to a client.
Now the JOIN::prepare and the create_distinct_group functions are create
additional hidden copy of BIT fields to preserve original fields untouched.
New hidden fields are used for grouping instead.
The bug caused memory corruption for some queries with top OR level
in the WHERE condition if they contained equality predicates and
other sargable predicates in disjunctive parts of the condition.
The corruption happened because the upper bound of the memory
allocated for KEY_FIELD and SARGABLE_PARAM internal structures
containing info about potential lookup keys was calculated incorrectly
in some cases. In particular it was calculated incorrectly when the
WHERE condition was an OR formula with disjuncts being AND formulas
including equalities and other sargable predicates.
mysql_ha_open calls mysql_ha_close on the error path (unsupported) to close the (opened) table before inserting it into the tables hash list handler_tables_hash) but mysql_ha_close only closes tables which are on the hash list, causing the table to be left open and locked.
This change moves the table close logic into a separate function that is always called on the error path of mysql_ha_open or on a normal handler close (mysql_ha_close).
ORDER BY is used
The range analysis module did not correctly signal to the
handler that a range represents a ref (EQ_RANGE flag). This causes
non-range queries like
SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE keypart_1=const, ..., keypart_n=const
ORDER BY ... FOR UPDATE
to wait for a lock unneccesarily if another running transaction uses
SELECT ... FOR UPDATE on the same table.
Fixed by setting EQ_RANGE for all range accesses that represent
an equality predicate.
under terms of bug#28875 for better performance.
The change appeared to require more changes in item_cmpfunc.cc,
which is dangerous in 5.0.
Conversion between a latin1 column and an ascii string constant
stopped to work.
Two character mappings were way off (backtick and tilde were "E"
and "Y"!), and three others were slightly rotated. The first
would cause collisions, and the latter was probably benign.
Now, assign the character mappings exactly to their normal values.
MySQL replicates the time zone only when operations that involve
it are performed. This is controlled by a flag. But this flag
is set only on successful operation.
The flag must be set also when there is an error that involves
a timezone (so the master would replicate the error to the slaves).
Fixed by moving the setting of the flag before the operation
(so it apples to errors as well).
This bug manifested itself for queries with grouping by columns of
the BIT type. It led to wrong comparisons of bit-field values and
wrong result sets.
Bit-field values never cannot be compared as binary values. Yet
the class Field_bit had an implementation of the cmp method that
compared bit-fields values as binary values.
Also the get_image and set_image methods of the base class Field
cannot be used for objects of the Field_bit class.
Now these methods are declared as virtual and specific implementations
of the methods are provided for the class Field_bit.
A test case was waiting for a fixed number of seconds for a specific
state of the slave IO thread to take place.
Fixed by waiting in a loop for that specific thread state instead
(or timeout).
(Regression, caused by a patch for the bug 22646).
Problem: when result type of date_format() was changed from
binary string to character string, mixing date_format()
with a ascii column in CONCAT() stopped to work.
Fix:
- adding "repertoire" flag into DTCollation class,
to mark items which can return only pure ASCII strings.
- allow character set conversion from pure ASCII to other character sets.
The SELECT query with more than 31 nested dependent SELECT queries returned
wrong result.
New error message has been added: ER_TOO_HIGH_LEVEL_OF_NESTING_FOR_SELECT.
It will be reported as: "Too high level of nesting for select".
