Bug #20662 "Infinite loop in CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT
with locked tables"
Bug #20903 "Crash when using CREATE TABLE .. SELECT and triggers"
Bug #24738 "CREATE TABLE ... SELECT is not isolated properly"
Bug #24508 "Inconsistent results of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT when
temporary table exists"
Deadlock occured when one tried to execute CREATE TABLE IF NOT
EXISTS ... SELECT statement under LOCK TABLES which held
read lock on target table.
Attempt to execute the same statement for already existing
target table with triggers caused server crashes.
Also concurrent execution of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statement
and other statements involving target table suffered from
various races (some of which might've led to deadlocks).
Finally, attempt to execute CREATE TABLE ... SELECT in case
when a temporary table with same name was already present
led to the insertion of data into this temporary table and
creation of empty non-temporary table.
All above problems stemmed from the old implementation of CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT in which we created, opened and locked target
table without any special protection in a separate step and not
with the rest of tables used by this statement.
This underminded deadlock-avoidance approach used in server
and created window for races. It also excluded target table
from prelocking causing problems with trigger execution.
The patch solves these problems by implementing new approach to
handling of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT for base tables.
We try to open and lock table to be created at the same time as
the rest of tables used by this statement. If such table does not
exist at this moment we create and place in the table cache special
placeholder for it which prevents its creation or any other usage
by other threads.
We still use old approach for creation of temporary tables.
Note that we have separate fix for 5.0 since there we use slightly
different less intrusive approach.

Also note that we decided to postpone introduction of some tests
for concurrent behaviour of CREATE TABLE ... SELECT till 5.1.
The main reason for this is absence in 5.0 ability to set @@debug
variable at runtime, which can be circumvented only by using several
test files with individual .opt files. Since the latter is likely
to slowdown test-suite unnecessary we chose not to push this tests
into 5.0, but run them manually for this version and later push
their optimized version into 5.1
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
Add a new autoconf paremeter --{en,dis}able-community-features . The
default is disable for enterprise servers.
Though this is a 5.0 tree, it is only to be merged into the 5.0-community
tree and the global 5.1 tree, never to the 5.0-enterprise tree.
The issue found with bug 25411 is due to the function skip_rear_comments()
which damages the source code while implementing a work around.
The root cause of the problem is in the lexical analyser, which does not
process special comments properly.
For special comments like :
[1] aaa /*!50000 bbb */ ccc
since 5.0 is a version older that the current code, the parser is in lining
the content of the special comment, so that the query to process is
[2] aaa bbb ccc
However, the text of the query captured when processing a stored procedure,
stored function or trigger (or event in 5.1), can be after rebuilding it:
[3] aaa bbb */ ccc
which is wrong.
To fix bug 25411 properly, the lexical analyser needs to return [2] when
in lining special comments.
In order to implement this, some preliminary cleanup is required in the code,
which is implemented by this patch.
Before this change, the structure named LEX (or st_lex) contains attributes
that belong to lexical analysis, as well as attributes that represents the
abstract syntax tree (AST) of a statement.
Creating a new LEX structure for each statements (which makes sense for the
AST part) also re-initialized the lexical analysis phase each time, which
is conceptually wrong.
With this patch, the previous st_lex structure has been split in two:
- st_lex represents the Abstract Syntax Tree for a statement. The name "lex"
has not been changed to avoid a bigger impact in the code base.
- class lex_input_stream represents the internal state of the lexical
analyser, which by definition should *not* be reinitialized when parsing
multiple statements from the same input stream.
This change is a pre-requisite for bug 25411, since the implementation of
lex_input_stream will later improve to deal properly with special comments,
and this processing can not be done with the current implementation of
sp_head::reset_lex and sp_head::restore_lex, which interfere with the lexer.
This change set alone does not fix bug 25411.
the lexer API which internally uses unsigned char variables to
address its state map. The implementation of the lexer should be
internal to the lexer, and not influence the rest of the code.
INSERT uses query_id to verify what fields are
mentioned in the fields list of the INSERT command.
However the check for that is made after the
ON DUPLICATE KEY is processed. This causes all
the fields mentioned in ON DUPLICATE KEY to be
considered as mentioned in the fields list of
INSERT.
Moved the check up, right after processing the
fields list.
lock table for writing during prepare of statement.
When single call open_normal_and_derived_tables() was used, we never
set table_count to the right value. This patch reverts the part of
the old code that does open_tables() (and sets table_count), then
checks if table_list->multitable_view is set (and returns if so, using
table_count value), and only then it does mysql_handle_derived().
Cache".
WL#1569 "Prepared Statements: implement support of Query Cache".
Prepared SELECTs did not look up in the query cache, and their results
were not stored in the query cache. This made them slower than
non-prepared SELECTs in some cases.
The fix is to re-use the expanded query (the prepared query where
"?" placeholders are replaced by their values, at execution time)
for searching/storing in the query cache.
It works fine for statements prepared via mysql_stmt_prepare(), which
are the most commonly used and were the scope of this bugfix and WL.
It works less fine for statements prepared via the SQL command
PREPARE...FROM, which are still not using the query cache if they
have at least one parameter (because then the expanded query contains
names of user variables, and user variables don't work with the
query cache, even in non-prepared queries).
Note that results from prepared SELECTs, which are in the binary
protocol, and results from normal SELECTs, which are in the text
protocol, ignore each other in the query cache, because a result in the
binary protocol should never be served to a SELECT expecting the text
protocol and vice-versa.
Note, after this patch, bug 25843 starts applying to query cache
("changing default database between PREPARE and EXECUTE of statement
breaks binlog"), we need to fix it.
During statement prepare phase the tables were locked as if the
statement is being executed, however this is not necessary.
The solution is to not lock tables on statement prepare phase.
Opening tables is enough to prevent DDL on them, and during statement
prepare we do not access nor modify any data.
fixes).
The legend: on a replication slave, in case a trigger creation
was filtered out because of application of replicate-do-table/
replicate-ignore-table rule, the parsed definition of a trigger was not
cleaned up properly. LEX::sphead member was left around and leaked
memory. Until the actual implementation of support of
replicate-ignore-table rules for triggers by the patch for Bug 24478 it
was never the case that "case SQLCOM_CREATE_TRIGGER"
was not executed once a trigger was parsed,
so the deletion of lex->sphead there worked and the memory did not leak.
The fix:
The real cause of the bug is that there is no 1 or 2 places where
we can clean up the main LEX after parse. And the reason we
can not have just one or two places where we clean up the LEX is
asymmetric behaviour of MYSQLparse in case of success or error.
One of the root causes of this behaviour is the code in Item::Item()
constructor. There, a newly created item adds itself to THD::free_list
- a single-linked list of Items used in a statement. Yuck. This code
is unaware that we may have more than one statement active at a time,
and always assumes that the free_list of the current statement is
located in THD::free_list. One day we need to be able to explicitly
allocate an item in a given Query_arena.
Thus, when parsing a definition of a stored procedure, like
CREATE PROCEDURE p1() BEGIN SELECT a FROM t1; SELECT b FROM t1; END;
we actually need to reset THD::mem_root, THD::free_list and THD::lex
to parse the nested procedure statement (SELECT *).
The actual reset and restore is implemented in semantic actions
attached to sp_proc_stmt grammar rule.
The problem is that in case of a parsing error inside a nested statement
Bison generated parser would abort immediately, without executing the
restore part of the semantic action. This would leave THD in an
in-the-middle-of-parsing state.
This is why we couldn't have had a single place where we clean up the LEX
after MYSQLparse - in case of an error we needed to do a clean up
immediately, in case of success a clean up could have been delayed.
This left the door open for a memory leak.
One of the following possibilities were considered when working on a fix:
- patch the replication logic to do the clean up. Rejected
as breaks module borders, replication code should not need to know the
gory details of clean up procedure after CREATE TRIGGER.
- wrap MYSQLparse with a function that would do a clean up.
Rejected as ideally we should fix the problem when it happens, not
adjust for it outside of the problematic code.
- make sure MYSQLparse cleans up after itself by invoking the clean up
functionality in the appropriate places before return. Implemented in
this patch.
- use %destructor rule for sp_proc_stmt to restore THD - cleaner
than the prevoius approach, but rejected
because needs a careful analysis of the side effects, and this patch is
for 5.0, and long term we need to use the next alternative anyway
- make sure that sp_proc_stmt doesn't juggle with THD - this is a
large work that will affect many modules.
Cleanup: move main_lex and main_mem_root from Statement to its
only two descendants Prepared_statement and THD. This ensures that
when a Statement instance was created for purposes of statement backup,
we do not involve LEX constructor/destructor, which is fairly expensive.
In order to track that the transformation produces equivalent
functionality please check the respective constructors and destructors
of Statement, Prepared_statement and THD - these members were
used only there.
This cleanup is unrelated to the patch.

Bug#24795: SHOW PROFILE
Profiling is only partially functional on some architectures. Where
there is no getrusage() system call, presently Null values are
returned where it would be required. Notably, Windows needs some love
applied to make it as useful.
Syntax this adds:
SHOW PROFILES
SHOW PROFILE [types] [FOR QUERY n] [OFFSET n] [LIMIT n]
where "n" is an integer
and "types" is zero or many (comma-separated) of
"CPU"
"MEMORY" (not presently supported)
"BLOCK IO"
"CONTEXT SWITCHES"
"PAGE FAULTS"
"IPC"
"SWAPS"
"SOURCE"
"ALL"
It also adds a session variable (boolean) "profiling", set to "no"
by default, and (integer) profiling_history_size, set to 15 by
default.
This patch abstracts setting THDs' "proc_info" behind a macro that
can be used as a hook into the profiling code when profiling
support is compiled in. All future code in this line should use
that mechanism for setting thd->proc_info.
---
Tests are now set to omit the statistics.
---
Adds an Information_schema table, "profiling" for access to
"show profile" data.

Several problems fixed:
1. There was a "catch-all" context initialization in setup_tables()
that was causing the table that we insert into to be visible in the
SELECT part of an INSERT .. SELECT .. statement with no tables in
its FROM clause. This was making sure all the under-initialized
contexts in various parts of the code are not left uninitialized.
Fixed by removing the "catch-all" statement and initializing the
context in the parser.
2. Incomplete name resolution context when resolving the right-hand
values in the ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE ... part of an INSERT ... SELECT ...
caused columns from NATURAL JOIN/JOIN USING table references in the
FROM clause of the select to be unavailable.
Fixed by establishing a proper name resolution context.
3. When setting up the special name resolution context for problem 2
there was no check for cases where an aggregate function without a
GROUP BY effectively takes the column from the SELECT part of an
INSERT ... SELECT unavailable for ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
Fixed by checking for that condition when setting up the name
resolution context.
