if --skip-grant-tables specified.
The problem is that there is a check that prevents creating a definer
with empty host name.
In --skip-grant-tables mode this check prevents the user from creating a
trigger/view without explicitly specifying its definer. This happens, because
in --skip-grant-tables mode CURRENT_USER is ''@''. According to Sanja this
check was implemented intentionally.
However, according to the MySQL manual it is possible to specify empty host
name (as well as empty user name). Moreover, the behaviour for stored routines
is different in this aspect -- we allow them to be created with implicit
definer.
Based on this, we believe it is OK to change the behaviour for views to be
similar with the behaviour for stored routines.
The idea of the fix is to extend support of non-SUID triggers for backward
compatibility. Formerly non-SUID triggers were appeared when "new" server
is being started against "old" database. Now, they are also created when
"new" slave receives updates from "old" master.
- Encoding itself, implemented as a charset
"filename". Originally planned to use '.'
as an escape character, but now changed to '@'
for two reasons: "ls" does not return
file names starting with '.' considering them
as a kind of hidden files; some platforms
do not allow several dots in a file name.
- replacing many calls of my_snprintf() and
strnxmov() to the new build_table_filename().
- Adding MY_APPEND_EXT mysys flag, to append
an extention rather that replace it.
- Replacing all numeric constants in fn_format
flag arguments to their mysys definitions, e.g.
MY_UNPACK_FILENAME,
- Predictability in several function/methods:
when a table name can appear with or withot .frm
extension. Some functions/methods were changed
so accept names strictly with .frm, other - strictly
without .frm extensions. Several DBUG_ASSERTs were
added to check whether an extension is passed.

of SELECT from query begining, to be independet of query buffer

Correct procedure used to find beginning of the current statement
during parsing (BUG#14885).
The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
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.
View .frm parser assumes that query string will take only 1 line, with \n in
aliases query stringmay take several lines thus produces bad .frm file.
'query' parameter type changed from 'string' to 'escaped string'
- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
(Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code
cursor is interpreted latin1 character and Bug#9819 "Cursors: Mysql Server
Crash while fetching from table with 5 million records."
A fix for a possible memory leak when fetching into an SP cursor
in a long loop.
The patch uses a common implementation of cursors in the binary protocol and
in stored procedures and implements materialized cursors.
For implementation details, see comments in sql_cursor.cc
When parser parses function convert_tz it loads available timezone tables in
thd->lex->time_zone_tables_used. But view have another lex that main query.
Thus time_zone_tables_used of main query left uninitialized.
When Item_func_conver_tz is fixed it takes timezone tables from main query
and later when it executed it assumes that timezone tables are loaded and
failed that assertion.
Information_schema DB
Bug#9846 Inappropriate error displayed while
dropping table from 'INFORMATION_SCHEMA'
Bug#10734 Grant of privileges other than 'select' and
'create view' should fail on schema
Bug#10708 SP's can use INFORMATION_SCHEMA as ROUTINE_SCHEMA
cumulative fix for bugs above(after review, 2nd version)
added privilege check for information schema db & tables
- current_arena to stmt_arena: the thread may have more than one
'current' arenas: one for runtime data, and one for the parsed
tree of a statement. Only one of them is active at any moment.
- set_item_arena -> set_query_arena, because Item_arena was renamed to
Query_arena a while ago
- set_n_backup_item_arena -> set_n_backup_active_arena;
the active arena is the arena thd->mem_root and thd->free_list
are currently pointing at.
- restore_backup_item_arena -> restore_active_arena (with the same
rationale)
- change_arena_if_needed -> activate_stmt_arena_if_needed; this
method sets thd->stmt_arena active if it's not done yet.
