BUG 5831 Changed mysql_revoke_all() to successfully delete all privileges for a user in one pass.
- client side part is simple and may be considered stable
- server side part now just joggles with THD state to save execution
state and has no additional locking wisdom.
Lot's of it are to be rewritten.
don't be confused if new privilege - ENUM ('N','Y') - columns are added (mostly because of downgrade)
don't expect NOT NULL fields to never contain a NULL :) - somebody may've changed table definition, or we may be reading the wrong column
more logical table/index_flags
return HA_ERR_WRONG_COMMAND instead of abstract methods where appropriate
max_keys and other limits renamed to max_supported_keys/etc
max_keys/etc are now wrappers to max_supported_keys/etc
ha_index_init/ha_rnd_init/ha_index_end/ha_rnd_end are now wrappers to real {index,rnd}_{init,end} to enforce strict pairing
names to lower case using latin1 instead of utf-8 in sql_acl.cc if lower_case_table_names
was on. Also replaced in other such places system_charset_info with files_charset_info
for consistency.
New records_in_range() interface (similar to read_range())
Macros for faster bitmap handling
Simplify read_range() code (#WL1786)
New general key_cmp() function to compare keys
Fixed security problem that password was temporarly reset when someone changed GRANT for a user. (Bug #3404)
Fixed problem with PROCEDURE analyse() and impossible WHERE (Bug #2238)
Don't auto-repair tables in mysqlcheck if table type doesn't support 'check' command.
Output TIMESTAMP in 4.1 format for 4.1 tables (or for TIMESTAMP(19)) (portability fix)
Fixed that INTERVAL can handle big integers. (Bug #3498)
Fixed that hostname="" works identical as hostname="%" for table/column grants (Bug #3473)
table resolution".
Added members to Item_ident for storing original db, table and field
names since those that set later from Field have shorter life-time
than required by prep. stmt. So we need to restore original names in
Item_ident::cleanup(). Also now using special construnctor for creation
of Item_field from Field object that ensures that table and field name
have big enough life-time.
"Fix" for bug #2050 "10 to 1 performance drop with server 4.1.1"
Clean ups in implementation of caching of field number in table.
Added caching of table in which field is found in find_field_in_tables().
Actually it is not a bug but right behavior observed as pefomance
degradation after we have forced Item_field::fix_fields() to
re-execute each time when we are executing prep stmt.
This patch implements small optimization which heals this bad
behavior. We are caching field position in TABLE::field array in
Item's member and are using this position for speeding up field
lookups in fix_fields() in case of its re-execution.
When password was granted with a global grant, then granting
privileges on database level, without password being specified,
will temporary (in memory) set password to ''.
"--read-only gives weird error on update".
It is not fixable in 4.0 because it requires modifying
the sql/share/*/errmsg.txt files. So it is fixed in 4.1 like this:
the ER_SKIP_GRANT_TABLES is replaced by a more generic
ER_OPTION_PREVENTS_STATEMENT which can be used both for
"can't do this because of --skip-grant-tables" and
"can't do this because of --read-only" (for this we don't use
ER_CANT_UPDATE_WITH_READLOCK anymore).
So now the message for --read-only is:
"The MySQL server is running with the --read-only option so
cannot execute this statement".
"EE_ error codes (EE_DELETE, EE_WRITE) end up in the binlog, making slave stop".
The problem was that during execution of the command on the master, an error
can occur (for example, not space left on device, then mysqld waits and when
there is space it completes successfully: so finally it worked but the error
EE_WRITE remains in thd->net.last_errno and thd->net.last_error).
To know if finally the command succeeded, we test the 'error' variable in
every place, and if it shows no failure we reset thd->net.last_err* using
the function THD::clear_error() which is backported from 4.1.
A new test to see if now only real errors get to the binlog (note: the test
uses "rm").
Also a bit of memory free/alloc saving in log_event.cc (do not free the whole
mem_root after every query in the slave SQL thread: we can keep the initial
block of it; which will be freed when the thread terminates).
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
WL#1284 (warnings about --skip-name-resolve)
Now MySQL will issue warnings during startup about entries in
grant tables with hostnames that require resolve, and after
GRANT commands with that kind of hostnames.
