779e2a9686 Bug #42064: low memory crash when importing hex strings, in
Item_hex_string::Item_hex_string

The status of memory allocation in the Lex_input_stream (called
from the Parser_state constructor) was not checked which led to
a parser crash in case of the out-of-memory error.

The solution is to introduce new init() member function in
Parser_state and Lex_input_stream so that status of memory
allocation can be returned to the caller.

Bug #50087 Interval arithmetic for Event_queue_element is not portable.

Subtraction of two unsigned months yielded a (very large) positive value.
Conversion of this to a signed value was not necessarily well defined.
              
Solution: do the subtraction on signed values.

8f6f3dba21 Bug #40877: multi statement execution fails in 5.1.30
Implemented the server infrastructure for the fix:

1. Added a function LEX_STRING *thd_query_string(THD) to return
a LEX_STRING structure instead of char *.
This is the function that must be called in innodb instead of 
thd_query()

2. Did some encapsulation in THD : aggregated thd_query and 
thd_query_length into a LEX_STRING and made accessor and mutator 
methods for easy code updating. 

3. Updated the server code to use the new methods where applicable.

c60397ef19 Patch for BUG#31111: --read-only crashes MySQL (events fail to load).
There actually were several problems here:
  - WRITE-lock is required to load events from the mysql.event table,
    but in the read-only mode an ordinary user can not acquire it;
  - Security_context::master_access attribute was not properly
    initialized in Security_context::init(), which led to differences
    in behavior with and without debug configure options.
  - if the server failed to load events from mysql.event, it forgot to
    close the mysql.event table, that led to the coredump, described
    in the bug report.

The patch is to fix all these problems:
  - Use the super-user to acquire WRITE-lock on the mysql.even table;
  - The WRITE-lock is acquired by the event scheduler in two cases:
    - on initial loading of events from the database;
    - when an event has been executed, so its attributes should
      be updated.
    Other cases when WRITE-lock is needed for the mysql.event table
    happen under the user account. So, nothing should be changed there
    for the read-only mode. The user is able to create/update/drop
    an event only if he is a super-user.
  - Initialize Security_context::master_access;
  - Close the mysql.event table in case something went wrong.

13d5119416 Bug#28641 CREATE EVENT with '2038.01.18 03:00:00' let server crash.
Creating an EVENT to be executed at a time close to the end of the allowed
range (2038.01.19 03:14:07 UTC) would cause the server to crash. The
expected behavior is to accept all calendar times within the interval and
reject all other values without crashing.

This patch replaces the function 'sec_to_epoch_TIME' with a Time_zone API call.
This function was broken because it invoked the internal function 'sec_to_epoch'
without respecting the restrictions on the function parameters (and this caused
assertion failure). It also was used as a reverse function to
Time_zone_utc::gmt_sec_to_TIME which it isn't.

9fae9ef66f Patch for the following bugs:
- BUG#11986: Stored routines and triggers can fail if the code
    has a non-ascii symbol
  - BUG#16291: mysqldump corrupts string-constants with non-ascii-chars
  - BUG#19443: INFORMATION_SCHEMA does not support charsets properly
  - BUG#21249: Character set of SP-var can be ignored
  - BUG#25212: Character set of string constant is ignored (stored routines)
  - BUG#25221: Character set of string constant is ignored (triggers)

There were a few general problems that caused these bugs:
1. Character set information of the original (definition) query for views,
   triggers, stored routines and events was lost.
2. mysqldump output query in client character set, which can be
   inappropriate to encode definition-query.
3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA used strings with mixed encodings to display object
   definition;

1. No query-definition-character set.

In order to compile query into execution code, some extra data (such as
environment variables or the database character set) is used. The problem
here was that this context was not preserved. So, on the next load it can
differ from the original one, thus the result will be different.

The context contains the following data:
  - client character set;
  - connection collation (character set and collation);
  - collation of the owner database;

The fix is to store this context and use it each time we parse (compile)
and execute the object (stored routine, trigger, ...).

2. Wrong mysqldump-output.

The original query can contain several encodings (by means of character set
introducers). The problem here was that we tried to convert original query
to the mysqldump-client character set.

Moreover, we stored queries in different character sets for different
objects (views, for one, used UTF8, triggers used original character set).

The solution is
  - to store definition queries in the original character set;
  - to change SHOW CREATE statement to output definition query in the
    binary character set (i.e. without any conversion);
  - introduce SHOW CREATE TRIGGER statement;
  - to dump special statements to switch the context to the original one
    before dumping and restore it afterwards.

Note, in order to preserve the database collation at the creation time,
additional ALTER DATABASE might be used (to temporary switch the database
collation back to the original value). In this case, ALTER DATABASE
privilege will be required. This is a backward-incompatible change.

3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA showed non-UTF8 strings

The fix is to generate UTF8-query during the parsing, store it in the object
and show it in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.

Basically, the idea is to create a copy of the original query convert it to
UTF8. Character set introducers are removed and all text literals are
converted to UTF8.

This UTF8 query is intended to provide user-readable output. It must not be
used to recreate the object.  Specialized SHOW CREATE statements should be
used for this.

The reason for this limitation is the following: the original query can
contain symbols from several character sets (by means of character set
introducers).

Example:

  - original query:
    CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT _cp1251 'Hello' AS c1;

  - UTF8 query (for INFORMATION_SCHEMA):
    CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT 'Hello' AS c1;

a508260b85 Bug#25411 (trigger code truncated), PART II
Bug 28127 (Some valid identifiers names are not parsed correctly)
Bug 26302 (MySQL server cuts off trailing "*/" from comments in SP/func)

This patch is the second part of a major cleanup, required to fix
Bug 25411 (trigger code truncated).

The root cause of the issue stems from the function skip_rear_comments,
which was a work around to remove "extra" "*/" characters from the query
text, when parsing a query and reusing the text fragments to represent a
view, trigger, function or stored procedure.
The reason for this work around is that "special comments",
like /*!50002 XXX */, were not parsed properly, so that a query like:
  AAA /*!50002 BBB */ CCC
would be seen by the parser as "AAA BBB */ CCC" when the current version
is greater or equal to 5.0.2

The root cause of this stems from how special comments are parsed.
Special comments are really out-of-bound text that appear inside a query,
that affects how the parser behave.
In nature, /*!50002 XXX */ in MySQL is similar to the C concept
of preprocessing :
  #if VERSION >= 50002
  XXX
  #endif

Depending on the current VERSION of the server, either the special comment
should be expanded or it should be ignored, but in all cases the "text" of
the query should be re-written to strip the "/*!50002" and "*/" markers,
which does not belong to the SQL language itself.

Prior to this fix, these markers would leak into :
- the storage format for VIEW,
- the storage format for FUNCTION,
- the storage format for FUNCTION parameters, in mysql.proc (param_list),
- the storage format for PROCEDURE,
- the storage format for PROCEDURE parameters, in mysql.proc (param_list),
- the storage format for TRIGGER,
- the binary log used for replication.

In all cases, not only this cause format corruption, but also provide a vector
for dormant security issues, by allowing to tunnel code that will be activated
after an upgrade.

The proper solution is to deal with special comments strictly during parsing,
when accepting a query from the outside world.
Once a query is parsed and an object is created with a persistant
representation, this object should not arbitrarily mutate after an upgrade.
In short, special comments are a useful but limited feature for MYSQLdump,
when used at an *interface* level to facilitate import/export,
but bloating the server *internal* storage format is *not* the proper way
to deal with configuration management of the user logic.

With this fix:
- the Lex_input_stream class now acts as a comment pre-processor,
and either expands or ignore special comments on the fly.
- MYSQLlex and sql_yacc.yy have been cleaned up to strictly use the
public interface of Lex_input_stream. In particular, how the input stream
accepts or rejects a character is private to Lex_input_stream, and the
internal buffer pointers of that class are strictly private, and should not
be tempered with during parsing.

This caused many changes mostly in sql_lex.cc.

During the code cleanup in case MY_LEX_NUMBER_IDENT,
Bug 28127 (Some valid identifiers names are not parsed correctly)
was found and fixed.

By parsing special comments properly, and removing the function
'skip_rear_comments' [sic],
Bug 26302 (MySQL server cuts off trailing "*/" from comments in SP/func)
has been fixed as well.

088e2395f1 WL#3817: Simplify string / memory area types and make things more consistent (first part)
The following type conversions was done:

- Changed byte to uchar
- Changed gptr to uchar*
- Change my_string to char *
- Change my_size_t to size_t
- Change size_s to size_t

Removed declaration of byte, gptr, my_string, my_size_t and size_s. 

Following function parameter changes was done:
- All string functions in mysys/strings was changed to use size_t
  instead of uint for string lengths.
- All read()/write() functions changed to use size_t (including vio).
- All protocoll functions changed to use size_t instead of uint
- Functions that used a pointer to a string length was changed to use size_t*
- Changed malloc(), free() and related functions from using gptr to use void *
  as this requires fewer casts in the code and is more in line with how the
  standard functions work.
- Added extra length argument to dirname_part() to return the length of the
  created string.
- Changed (at least) following functions to take uchar* as argument:
  - db_dump()
  - my_net_write()
  - net_write_command()
  - net_store_data()
  - DBUG_DUMP()
  - decimal2bin() & bin2decimal()
- Changed my_compress() and my_uncompress() to use size_t. Changed one
  argument to my_uncompress() from a pointer to a value as we only return
  one value (makes function easier to use).
- Changed type of 'pack_data' argument to packfrm() to avoid casts.
- Changed in readfrm() and writefrom(), ha_discover and handler::discover()
  the type for argument 'frmdata' to uchar** to avoid casts.
- Changed most Field functions to use uchar* instead of char* (reduced a lot of
  casts).
- Changed field->val_xxx(xxx, new_ptr) to take const pointers.

Other changes:
- Removed a lot of not needed casts
- Added a few new cast required by other changes
- Added some cast to my_multi_malloc() arguments for safety (as string lengths
  needs to be uint, not size_t).
- Fixed all calls to hash-get-key functions to use size_t*. (Needed to be done
  explicitely as this conflict was often hided by casting the function to
  hash_get_key).
- Changed some buffers to memory regions to uchar* to avoid casts.
- Changed some string lengths from uint to size_t.
- Changed field->ptr to be uchar* instead of char*. This allowed us to
  get rid of a lot of casts.
- Some changes from true -> TRUE, false -> FALSE, unsigned char -> uchar
- Include zlib.h in some files as we needed declaration of crc32()
- Changed MY_FILE_ERROR to be (size_t) -1.
- Changed many variables to hold the result of my_read() / my_write() to be
  size_t. This was needed to properly detect errors (which are
  returned as (size_t) -1).
- Removed some very old VMS code
- Changed packfrm()/unpackfrm() to not be depending on uint size
  (portability fix)
- Removed windows specific code to restore cursor position as this
  causes slowdown on windows and we should not mix read() and pread()
  calls anyway as this is not thread safe. Updated function comment to
  reflect this. Changed function that depended on original behavior of
  my_pwrite() to itself restore the cursor position (one such case).
- Added some missing checking of return value of malloc().
- Changed definition of MOD_PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH to avoid 'long' overflow.
- Changed type of table_def::m_size from my_size_t to ulong to reflect that
  m_size is the number of elements in the array, not a string/memory
  length.
- Moved THD::max_row_length() to table.cc (as it's not depending on THD).
  Inlined max_row_length_blob() into this function.
- More function comments
- Fixed some compiler warnings when compiled without partitions.
- Removed setting of LEX_STRING() arguments in declaration (portability fix).
- Some trivial indentation/variable name changes.
- Some trivial code simplifications:
  - Replaced some calls to alloc_root + memcpy to use
    strmake_root()/strdup_root().
  - Changed some calls from memdup() to strmake() (Safety fix)
  - Simpler loops in client-simple.c

kostja@vajra.(none)
98db230086 A set of changes aiming to make the Event Scheduler more user-friendly
when there are no up-to-date system tables to support it:
 - initialize the scheduler before reporting "Ready for connections".
   This ensures that warnings, if any, are printed before "Ready for
   connections", and this message is not mangled.
 - do not abort the scheduler if there are no system tables
 - check the tables once at start up, remember the status and disable
   the scheduler if the tables are not up to date.
   If one attempts to use the scheduler with bad tables,
   issue an error message.
 - clean up the behaviour of the module under LOCK TABLES and pre-locking
   mode
 - make sure implicit commit of Events DDL works as expected.
 - add more tests


Collateral clean ups in the events code.

Removed year 2000 handling out from calc_days()
The above removes some bugs in date/datetimes with year between 0 and 200
Now we get a note when we insert a datetime value into a date column
For default values to CREATE, don't give errors for warning level NOTE
Fixed some compiler failures
Added library ws2_32 for windows compilation (needed if we want to compile with IOCP support)
Removed duplicate typedef TIME and replaced it with MYSQL_TIME

Better (more complete) fix for: Bug#21103 "DATE column not compared as DATE"
Fixed properly Bug#18997 "DATE_ADD and DATE_SUB perform year2K autoconversion magic on 4-digit year value"
Fixed Bug#23093 "Implicit conversion of 9912101 to date does not match cast(9912101 as date)"

6d8f6b5bfd BUG#16420: Events: timestamps become UTC
BUG#26429: SHOW CREATE EVENT is incorrect for an event that
           STARTS NOW()
BUG#26431: Impossible to re-create an event from backup if its
           STARTS clause is in the past
WL#3698: Events: execution in local time zone

The problem was that local times specified by the user in AT, STARTS
and ENDS of CREATE EVENT/ALTER EVENT statement were converted to UTC,
and the original time zone was forgotten.  This way, event scheduler
couldn't honor Daylight Saving Time shifts, and times shown to the
user were also in UTC.  Additionally, CREATE EVENT didn't allow times
in the past, thus preventing straightforward event restoration from
old backups.

This patch reworks event scheduler time computations, performing them
in the time zone associated with the event.  Also it allows times to
be in the past.

The patch adds time_zone column to mysql.event table.

NOTE: The patch is almost final, but the bug#9953 should be pushed
first.
