The patch implements the idea suggested by Olaf van der Spek in
thread "Client: many small reads?" (internals@lists.mysql.com).
Now small reads performed by the client library are buffered.
The buffering gives up to 2 times speedup when retrieving
one-column tables.
Improved handling of situations when we encounter error during
CREATE PROCEDURE (FUNCTION/TRIGGER/...) and bail out of yyparse()
without restoring proper THD::lex.
Logging to logging@openlogging.org accepted
func_group.result, func_group.test:
Added a test case for bug #8893.
opt_sum.cc:
A misplaced initialization for the returned parameter
prefix_len in the function find_key_for_maxmin caused
usage of a wrong key prefix by the min/max optimization
in cases when the matching index was not the first index
that contained the min/max field.
and some SP-related cleanups.
- We don't have separate stage for calculation of list of tables
to be prelocked and doing implicit LOCK/UNLOCK any more.
Instead we calculate this list at open_tables() and do implicit
LOCK in lock_tables() (and UNLOCK in close_thread_tables()).
Also now we support cases when same table (with same alias) is
used several times in the same query in SP.
- Cleaned up execution of SP. Moved all common code which handles
LEX and does preparations before statement execution or complex
expression evaluation to auxilary sp_lex_keeper class. Now
all statements in SP (and corresponding instructions) that
evaluate expression which can contain subquery have their
own LEX.
fixing test results accordingly.
func_system.test:
New test that illegal mix of collations does not happen anymore.
item_strfunc.h:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_strfunc.cc:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_func.cc, item.h, item.cc:
Bug#8291: Illegal collation mix with USER() function.
After discussion with PeterG and Serge, a new coercibility
level for "system constants" was introduced, between
COERRIBLE and IMPLICIT. Thus:
SELECT col1 = USER() FROM t1; - is done according to col1 collation.
SELECT 'string' = USER(); - is done according to USER() collation.
At the same time, "nagg" and "strong" members were removed as unused.
item_create.cc:
Version is a system constant too.
