The problem was that LOAD DATA code (sql_load.cc) didn't take into
account that there may be items, representing references to other
columns. This is a usual case in views. The crash happened because
Item_direct_view_ref was casted to Item_user_var_as_out_param,
which is not a base class.
The fix is to
1) Handle references properly;
2) Ensure that an item is treated as a user variable only when
it is a user variable indeed;
3) Report an error if LOAD DATA is used to load data into
non-updatable column.
Bug #18453 Warning/error message if there is a mismatch between ...
There were three problems:
1. the reported lack of warnings for the BEFORE syntax of PURGE;
2. the similar lack of warnings for the TO syntax;
3. incompatible behaviour between the two in that the latter blanked out
regardlessly of presence or lack the actual file corresponding to
an index record; the former version gave up at the first mismatch.
fixed with deploying the warning's generation and synronizing logics of
purge_logs() and purge_logs_before_date().
my_stat() is called in either of two branches of purge_logs() (responsible
for the TO syntax of PURGE) similarly to how it has behaved in the BEFORE syntax.
If there is no actual binlog file, my_stat returns NULL and my_delete is
not invoked.
A critical error is reported to the user if a file from the index
could not be retrieved info about or deleted with a system error code
different than ENOENT.
in the SELECT INTO OUTFILE clause starts with a special
character (one of n, t, r, b, 0, Z or N) and ENCLOSED BY
is empty, every occurrence of this character within a
field value is duplicated.
Duplication has been avoided.
New warning message has been added: "First character of
the FIELDS TERMINATED string is ambiguous; please use
non-optional and non-empty FIELDS ENCLOSED BY".
Declaring an all space column name in the SELECT FROM DUAL or in a view
leads to misleading warning message:
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '".
The Item::set_name method has been modified to raise warnings like
"Name ' ' has become ''" in case of the truncation of an all
space identifier to an empty string identifier instead of the
"Leading spaces are removed from name ' '" warning message.
Based on contributed patch from Martin Friebe, CLA from 2007-02-24.
The parser lacked support for field sizes after signed long,
when it should extend to 2**32-1.
Now, we correct that limitation, and also make the error handling
consistent for casts.
Two character mappings were way off (backtick and tilde were "E"
and "Y"!), and three others were slightly rotated. The first
would cause collisions, and the latter was probably benign.
Now, assign the character mappings exactly to their normal values.
The SELECT query with more than 31 nested dependent SELECT queries returned
wrong result.
New error message has been added: ER_TOO_HIGH_LEVEL_OF_NESTING_FOR_SELECT.
It will be reported as: "Too high level of nesting for select".
SHOW CREATE TABLE fails
Underlying table names, that merge engine fails to open were not
reported.
With this fix CHECK TABLE issued against merge table reports all
underlying table names that it fails to open. Other statements
are unaffected, that is underlying table names are not included
into error message.
This fix doesn't solve SHOW CREATE TABLE issue.
On an INSERT into an updatable but non-insertable view an error message was
issued stating the view being not updatable. This can lead to a confusion of a
user.
A new error message is introduced. Is is showed when a user tries to insert
into a non-insertable view.
Fixed confusing error message from the storage engine when
it fails to open underlying table. The error message is issued
when a table is _opened_ (not when it is created).
User name (host name) has limit on length. The server code relies on these
limits when storing the names. The problem was that sometimes these limits
were not checked properly, so that could lead to buffer overflow.
The fix is to check length of user/host name in parser and if string is too
long, throw an error.
columns
Fixed confusing warning.
Quoting INSERT section of the manual:
----
Inserting NULL into a column that has been declared NOT NULL. For
multiple-row INSERT statements or INSERT INTO ... SELECT statements, the
column is set to the implicit default value for the column data type. This
is 0 for numeric types, the empty string ('') for string types, and the
"zero" value for date and time types. INSERT INTO ... SELECT statements are
handled the same way as multiple-row inserts because the server does not
examine the result set from the SELECT to see whether it returns a single
row. (For a single-row INSERT, no warning occurs when NULL is inserted into
a NOT NULL column. Instead, the statement fails with an error.)
----
This is also true for LOAD DATA INFILE. For INSERT user can specify
DEFAULT keyword as a value to set column default. There is no similiar
feature available for LOAD DATA INFILE.
Bug #18361: Triggers on mysql.user table cause server crash
Because they do not work, we do not allow creating triggers on tables
within the 'mysql' schema.
(They may be made to work and re-enabled at some later date, but not
in 5.0 or 5.1.)
It fact, filenames are truncated in normal server as well, just we
get bigger filenames in embedded server tests, but that can potentially
get some problems in both cases.
I modified file-related error messages to allow longer filenames
from within triggers
Add support for passing NEW.x as INOUT and OUT parameters to stored
procedures. Passing NEW.x as INOUT parameter requires SELECT and
UPDATE privileges on that column, and passing it as OUT parameter
requires only UPDATE privilege.
