Although the C standard mandates that sprintf return the number
of bytes written, some very ancient systems (i.e. SunOS 4)
returned a pointer to the buffer instead. Since these systems
are not supported anymore and are hopefully long dead by now,
simply remove the portability wrapper that dealt with this
discrepancy. The autoconf check was causing trouble with GCC.
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
BUILD/SETUP.sh:
Remove flags that are implied by -Wall and -Wextra.

strict aliasing violations.
Essentially, the problem is that large parts of the server were
developed in simpler times (last decades, pre C99 standard) when
strict aliasing and compilers supporting such optimizations were
rare to non-existent. Thus, when compiling the server with a modern
compiler that uses strict aliasing rules to perform optimizations,
there are several places in the code that might trigger undefined
behavior.
As evinced by some recent bugs, GCC does a somewhat good of job
misoptimizing such code, but on the other hand also gives warnings
about suspicious code. One problem is that the warnings aren't
always accurate, yet we can't afford to just shut them off as we
might miss real cases. False-positive cases are aggravated mostly
by casts that are likely to trigger undefined behavior.
The solution is to start a cleanup process focused on fixing and
reducing the amount of strict-aliasing related warnings produced
by GCC and others compilers. A good deal of noise reduction can
be achieved by just removing useless casts that are product of
historical cruft and are likely to trigger undefined behavior if
dereferenced.

When mysqlbinlog was given the --database=X flag, it always printed
'ROLLBACK TO', but the corresponding 'SAVEPOINT' statement was not
printed. The replicated filter(replicated-do/ignore-db) and binlog
filter (binlog-do/ignore-db) has the same problem. They are solved
in this patch together.
After this patch, We always check whether the query is 'SAVEPOINT'
statement or not. Because this is a literal check, 'SAVEPOINT' and
'ROLLBACK TO' statements are also binlogged in uppercase with no
any comments.
The binlog before this patch can be handled correctly except one case
that any comments are in front of the keywords. for example:
/* bla bla */ SAVEPOINT a;
/* bla bla */ ROLLBACK TO a;
mysql_upgrade was passing an non-initialized non-null tmpdir to create_temp_file() if no
--tmpdir was specified. This prevents create_temp_file() from taking the system
temporary file path and as a result mysql_upgrade was trying to open a file in a
directory that it may not have write access to.
Fixed by making sure mysql_upgrade will pass a zero length temp dir string to
create_temp_file() if no --tmpdir is specified.
The problem was that mysqltest could attempt to execute a
SHOW WARNINGS statement through a connection that was not
properly reaped, thus violating its own rules.
The solution is to skip SHOW WARNINGS if a connection has
not been properly repeaed.
client/mysqltest.cc:
Skip SHOW WARNINGS if connection hasn't been reaped.
I found three issues during the analysis:
1. Memory leak caused by temp_buf not being freed;
2. Memory leak caused when handling argv;
3. Conditional jump that depended on unitialized values.
Issue #1
--------
DESCRIPTION: when mysqlbinlog is reading from a remote location
the event temp_buf references the incoming stream (in NET
object), which is not freed by mysqlbinlog explicitly. On the
other hand, when it is reading local binary log, it points to a
temporary buffer that needs to be explicitly freed. For both
cases, the temp_buf was not freed by mysqlbinlog, instead was
set to 0. This clearly disregards the free required in the
second case, thence creating a memory leak.
FIX: we make temp_buf to be conditionally freed depending on
the value of remote_opt. Found out that similar fix is already
in most recent codebases.
Issue #2
--------
DESCRIPTION: load_defaults is called by parse_args, and it
reads default options from configuration files and put them
BEFORE the arguments that are already in argc and argv. This is
done resorting to MEM_ROOT. However, parse_args calls
handle_options immediately after which changes argv. Later when
freeing the defaults, pointers to MEM_ROOT won't match, causing
the memory not to be freed:
void free_defaults(char **argv)
{
MEM_ROOT ptr
memcpy_fixed((char*) &ptr,(char *) argv - sizeof(ptr), sizeof(ptr));
free_root(&ptr,MYF(0));
}
FIX: we remove load_defaults from parse_args and call it
before. Then we save argv with defaults in defaults_argv BEFORE
calling parse_args (which inside can then call handle_options
at will). Actually, found out that this is in fact kind of a
backport for BUG#38468 into 5.1, so I merged in the test case
as well and added error check for load_defaults call.
Fix based on:
revid:zhenxing.he@sun.com-20091002081840-uv26f0flw4uvo33y
Issue #3
--------
DESCRIPTION: the structure st_print_event_info constructor
would not initialize the sql_mode member, although it did for
sql_mode_inited (set to false). This would later raise the
warning in valgrind when printing the sql_mode in the event
header, as this print out is protected by a check against
sql_mode_inited and sql_mode variables. Given that sql_mode was
not initialized valgrind would output the warning.
FIX: we add initialization of sql_mode to the
st_print_event_info constructor.
client/mysqlbinlog.cc:
- Conditionally free ev->temp_buf.
- save defaults_argv before handle_options is called.
mysql-test/t/mysqlbinlog.test:
Added test case from BUG#38468.
sql/log_event.cc:
Added initialization of sql_mode for st_print_event_info.

valgrind pointed to a buffer allocated by my_realloc which looked fishy
Replaced size with what was probably intended, added test case.
Now also fixed line after review comment
The problem is a somewhat common misusage of the strmake function.
The strmake(dst, src, len) function writes at most /len/ bytes to
the string pointed to by src, not including the trailing null byte.
Hence, if /len/ is the exact length of the destination buffer, a
one byte buffer overflow can occur if the length of the source
string is equal to or greater than /len/.
client/mysqldump.c:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
libmysql/libmysql.c:
Add comment, there is enough room in the buffer.
Increase buffer length, two strings are concatenated.
libmysqld/lib_sql.cc:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
mysys/default.c:
Make room for the trailing null bytes.
mysys/mf_pack.c:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
server-tools/instance-manager/commands.cc:
Copy only if overflow isn't possible in both cases.
server-tools/instance-manager/listener.cc:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
sql/log.cc:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
sql/sp_pcontext.h:
Cosmetic fix.

MAX_HOSTNAME already specifies space for the trailing null byte.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
sql/sql_table.cc:
Make room for the trailing null byte.
strmov() is not guaranteed to work correctly on overlapping
source and destination buffers. On some OSes it may work,
but Fedora 12 has a stpcpy() that's not working correctly
on overlapping buffers.
Fixed to use the overlap-safe version of strmov instead.
Re-vitalized the overlap-safe version of strmov.
"mysql_upgrade (ver 5.1) add 3 fields to mysql.proc table but does
not set values".
mysql_upgrade (ver 5.1) adds 3 fields (character_set_client,
collation_connection and db_collation) to the mysql.proc table, but
does not set any values. When we run stored procedures, which were
created with mysql 5.0, a warning is logged into the error log.
The solution to this is for mysql_upgrade to set default best guess
values for these fields. A warning is also written during upgrade, to
make the user aware that default values are set.
client/mysql_upgrade.c:
Result lines which start with "WARNING" are passed through to the output.
This way we have a way of triggering WARNING-messages during upgrade
directly from the .sql-script.
mysql-test/r/mysql_upgrade.result:
Expected result of the test.
mysql-test/t/mysql_upgrade.test:
Added a test-case for the bug.
scripts/mysql_system_tables_fix.sql:
The new fields are populated, and warnings are written.
mysql client displays wrong character-set of server. When a user changes the
charset of a server, mysql client 'status' command displays wrong charset but
the command "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "%charset%" displayed correct charset results.
The problem is only with the mysql client's 'status' command output.
In mysql client, the method mysql_store_lazy_result() returns 0 for
success and non-zero for failure. The method com_status() was using this method
wrongly. Fixed all such instances according to return value of the method
mysql_store_lazy_result().
client/mysql.cc:

When starting the (5.1+) mysql command-line client, we try to get
"select @@version_comment" from the server to present it to the
user. Recent clients are aware that older servers do not have that
variable and fall back on other info to be able to present *something*
at least. This fallback string was allocated through the POSIX interface,
but released through the my*() suite, which rightfully complained about
the imbalance in calls when compiled with --debug. While this wasn't
as bad as it looked (no double-free, use of uninitialized or freed
buffer, etc.), it did look funky.
Using my_strdup() now for what will be my_free()d later.
client/mysql.cc:
Use my_strdup() for server_version, as we'll my_free() it later
and don't want to upset the mysql client's memory accounting.
The reason for the bug is that mysqtest as well as other client tools
running in test suite (mysqlbinlog, mysqldump) will first try to connect
whatever database has created shared memory with default base name
"MySQL" and use this. (Same effect could be seen on Unix if mtr would
not care to calculate "port" and "socket" parameter).
The fix ensures that all client tools and running in mtr use unique
per-database shared memory base parameters, so there is no possibility
to clash with already installed one. We use socket name for shared memory
base (it's known to be unique). This shared-memory-base is written to the
MTR config file to the [client] and [mysqld] sections. Fix made also made
sure all client tools understand and correctly handle --shared-memory-base.
Prior to this patch it was not the case for mysqltest, mysqlbinlog and
mysql_client_test.
All new connections done from mtr scripts via connect() will by default
set shared-memory-base. And finally, there is a possibility to force
shared memory or pipe connection and overwrite shared memory/pipe base name
from within mtr scripts via optional PIPE or SHM modifier. This functionality
was manually backported from 6.0
