Since, as of MySQL 5.0.15, CHAR() arguments larger than 255 are converted into multiple result bytes, a single CHAR() argument can now take up to 4 bytes. This patch fixes Item_func_char::fix_length_and_dec() to take this into account.
This patch also fixes a regression introduced by the patch for bug21513. As now we do not always have the 'name' member of Item set for Item_hex_string and Item_bin_string, an own print() method has been added to Item_hex_string so that it could correctly be printed by Item_func::print_args().
"CSV does not work with NULL value in datetime fields"
Attempting to insert a row with a NULL value for a DATETIME field
results in a CSV file which the storage engine cannot read.
Don't blindly assume that "0" is acceptable for all field types,
Since CSV does not support NULL, we find out from the field the
default non-null value.
Do not permit the creation of a table with a nullable columns.
The general log write function (general_log_print) uses printf style
arguments which need to be pre-processed, meaning that the all arguments
are copied to a single buffer and the problem is that the buffer size is
constant (1022 characters) but queries can be much larger then this.
The solution is to introduce a new log write function that accepts a
buffer and it's length as arguments. The function is to be used when
a formatted output is not required, which is the case for almost all
query write-to-log calls.
This is a incompatible change with respect to the log format of prepared
statements.
The server crashed when a thread was killed while locking the
general_log table at statement begin.
The general_log table is handled like a performance schema table.
The state of open tables is saved and cleared so that this table
seems to be the only open one. Then this table is opened and locked.
After writing, the table is closed and the open table state is
restored. Before restoring, however, it is asserted that there is
no current table open.
After locking the table, mysql_lock_tables() checks if the thread
was killed in between. If so, it unlocks the table and returns an
error. open_ltable() just returns with the error and leaves closing
of the table to close_thread_tables(), which is called at
statement end.
open_performance_schema_table() did not take this into account.
It assumed that a failed open_ltable() would not leave an open
table behind.
Fixed by closing thread tables after open_ltable() and before
restore_backup_open_tables_state() if the thread was killed.
No test case. It requires correctly timed parallel execution.
Since this bug was detected by the test suite, it seems
dispensable to add another test.
No warning was generated when a TIMESTAMP with a non-zero time part
was converted to a DATE value. This caused index lookup to assume
that this is a valid conversion and was returning rows that match
a comparison between a TIMESTAMP value and a DATE keypart.
Fixed by generating a warning on such a truncation.
