The problem is that AFTER UPDATE triggers will fire only if the
new data is different from the old data on the row. The trigger
should fire regardless of whether there are changes to the data.
The solution is to fire the trigger on UPDATE even if there are
no changes to the value (because the value is the same).
This bug is actually two bugs in one, one of which is CREATE TRIGGER under
LOCK TABLES and the other is CREATE TRIGGER under LOCK TABLES simultaneous
to a FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK (global read lock). Both situations could
lead to a server crash or deadlock.
The first problem arises from the fact that when under LOCK TABLES, if the
table is in the set of locked tables, the table is already open and it doesn't
need to be reopened (not a placeholder). Also in this case, if the table is
not write locked, a exclusive lock can't be acquired because of a possible
deadlock with another thread also holding a (read) lock on the table. The
second issue arises from the fact that one should never wait for a global
read lock if it's holding any locked tables, because the global read lock
is waiting for these tables and this leads to a circular wait deadlock.
The solution for the first case is to check if the table is write locked
and upgraded the write lock to a exclusive lock and fail otherwise for non
write locked tables. Grabbin the exclusive lock in this case also means
to ensure that the table is opened only by the calling thread. The second
issue is partly fixed by not waiting for the global read lock if the thread
is holding any locked tables.
The second issue is only partly addressed in this patch because it turned
out to be much wider and also affects other DDL statements. Reported as
Bug#32395
causes full table lock on innodb table.
Also fixes Bug#28502 Triggers that update another innodb table
will block on X lock unnecessarily (duplciate).
Code review fixes.
Both bugs' synopses are misleading: InnoDB table is
not X locked. The statements, however, cannot proceed concurrently,
but this happens due to lock conflicts for tables used in triggers,
not for the InnoDB table.
If a user had an InnoDB table, and two triggers, AFTER UPDATE and
AFTER INSERT, competing for different resources (e.g. two distinct
MyISAM tables), then these two triggers would not be able to execute
concurrently. Moreover, INSERTS/UPDATES of the InnoDB table would
not be able to run concurrently.
The problem had other side-effects (see respective bug reports).
This behavior was a consequence of a shortcoming of the pre-locking
algorithm, which would not distinguish between different DML operations
(e.g. INSERT and DELETE) and pre-lock all the tables
that are used by any trigger defined on the subject table.
The idea of the fix is to extend the pre-locking algorithm to keep track,
for each table, what DML operation it is used for and not
load triggers that are known to never be fired.
fails if a database is not selected prior.
The problem manifested itself when a user tried to
create a routine that had non-fully-qualified identifiers in its bodies
and there was no current database selected.
This is a regression introduced by the fix for Bug 19022:
The patch for Bug 19022 changes the code to always produce a warning
if we can't resolve the current database in the parser.
In this case this was not necessary, since even though the produced
parsed tree was incorrect, we never re-use sphead
that was obtained at first parsing of CREATE PROCEDURE.
The sphead that is anyhow used is always obtained through db_load_routine,
and there we change the current database to sphead->m_db before
calling yyparse.
The idea of the fix is to resolve the current database directly using
lex->sphead->m_db member when parsing a stored routine body, when
such is present.
This patch removes the need to reset the current database
when loading a trigger or routine definition into SP cache.
The redundant code will be removed in 5.1.
- 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;
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.
- fixed wrong test case for bug 20903
- closed the dangling connections in trigger.test
- GET_LOCK() and RELEASE_LOCK() now produce more detailed log
- fixed an omission in GET_LOCK() : assign the thread_id when
acquiring the lock.
The value of "low-priority-updates" option and the LOW PRIORITY
prefix was taken into account at parse time.
This caused triggers (among others) to ignore this flag (if
supplied for the DML statement).
Moved reading of the LOW_PRIORITY flag at run time.
Fixed an incosistency when handling
SET GLOBAL LOW_PRIORITY_UPDATES : now it is in effect for
delayed INSERTs.
Tested by checking the effect of LOW_PRIORITY flag via a
trigger.
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.

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

UPDATE if the row wasn't actually changed.
This bug was caused by fix for bug#19978. It causes AFTER UPDATE triggers

in a select list.
The objects of the Item_trigger_field class inherited the implementations
of the methods copy_or_same, get_tmp_table_item and get_tmp_table_field
from the class Item_field while they rather should have used the default
implementations defined for the base class Item.
It could cause catastrophic problems for triggers that used SELECTs
with select list containing trigger fields such as NEW.<table column>
under DISTINCT.
This is the 5.0 part of the fix.
Currently TRUNCATE command will not call
delete_all_rows() in the handler (that implements
the "fast" TRUNCATE for InnoDB) when there are
triggers on the table.
As decided by the architecture team TRUNCATE must
use "fast" TRUNCATE even when there are triggers.
Thus it must ignore the triggers.
Made TRUNCATE to ignore the triggers and call
delete_all_rows() for all storage engines
to maintain engine consistency.
This change set implements the DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS functionality.
This fix is considered a bug and not a feature, because without it,
there is no known method to write a database creation script that can create
a trigger without failing, when executed on a database that may or may not
contain already a trigger of the same name.
Implementing this functionality closes an orthogonality gap between triggers
and stored procedures / stored functions (which do support the DROP IF
EXISTS syntax).
In sql_trigger.cc, in mysql_create_or_drop_trigger,
the code has been reordered to:
- perform the tests that do not depend on the file system (access()),
- get the locks (wait_if_global_read_lock, LOCK_open)
- call access()
- perform the operation
- write to the binlog
- unlock (LOCK_open, start_waiting_global_read_lock)
This is to ensure that all the code that depends on the presence of the
trigger file is executed in the same critical section,
and prevents race conditions similar to the case fixed by Bug 14262 :
- thread 1 executes DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS, access() returns a failure
- thread 2 executes CREATE TRIGGER
- thread 2 logs CREATE TRIGGER
- thread 1 logs DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS

stored function invoked from different connections".
Invocation of trigger which was using stored function from different
connections caused server crashes (for non-debug server this happened
in highly concurrent environment, but debug server failed on assertion
in relatively simple scenario).
Item_func_sp was not safe to use in triggers (in other words for
re-execution from different threads) as artificial TABLE object
pointed by Item_func_sp::dummy_table referenced incorrect THD
object. To fix the problem we force re-initialization of this
object for each re-execution of statement.
This patch reverts a change introduced by Bug 6951, which incorrectly
set thd->abort_on_warning for stored procedures.
As per internal discussions about the SQL_MODE=TRADITIONAL,
the correct behavior is to *not* abort on warnings even inside an INSERT/UPDATE
trigger.
Tests for Stored Procedures, Stored Functions, Triggers involving SQL_MODE
have been included or revised, to reflect the intended behavior.
(reposting approved patch, to work around source control issues, no review needed)
this key does not stop" (version for 5.0 only).
UPDATE statement which WHERE clause used key and which invoked trigger
that modified field in this key worked indefinetely.
This problem occured because in cases when UPDATE statement was
executed in update-on-the-fly mode (in which row is updated right
during evaluation of select for WHERE clause) the new version of
the row became visible to select representing WHERE clause and was
updated again and again.
We already solve this problem for UPDATE statements which does not
invoke triggers by detecting the fact that we are going to update
field in key used for scanning and performing update in two steps,
during the first step we gather information about the rows to be
updated and then doing actual updates. We also do this for
MULTI-UPDATE and in its case we even detect situation when such
fields are updated in triggers (actually we simply assume that
we always update fields used in key if we have before update
trigger).
The fix simply extends this check which is done in check_if_key_used()/
QUICK_SELECT_I::check_if_keys_used() routine/method in such way that
it also detects cases when field used in key is updated in trigger.
As nice side-effect we have more precise and thus more optimal
perfomance-wise check for the MULTI-UPDATE.
Also check_if_key_used()/QUICK_SELECT_I::check_if_keys_used() were
renamed to is_key_used()/QUICK_SELECT_I::is_keys_used() in order to
better reflect that boolean predicate.
Note that this check is implemented in much more elegant way in 5.1
erroneous check
Problem: Actually there were two problems in the server code. The check
for SQLCOM_FLUSH in SF/Triggers were not according to the existing
architecture which uses sp_get_flags_for_command() from sp_head.cc .
This function was also missing a check for SQLCOM_FLUSH which has a
problem combined with prelocking. This changeset fixes both of these
deficiencies as well as the erroneous check in
sp_head::is_not_allowed_in_function() which was a copy&paste error.
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.
It was hard to distinguish case, when one was unable to create trigger
on the table because trigger with same action time and event already
existed for this table, from the case, when one tried to create trigger
with name which was already occupied by some other trigger, since in
both these cases we emitted ER_TRG_ALREADY_EXISTS error and message.
Now we emit ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_YET error with appropriate additional
message in the first case. There is no sense in introducing separate
error for this situation since we plan to get rid of this limitation
eventually.
Bug #18361: Triggers on mysql.user table cause server crash
Because they do not work, we do not allow creating triggers on tables

(They may be made to work and re-enabled at some later date, but not
in 5.0 or 5.1.)
INSERT triggers".
In cases when REPLACE was internally executed via update and table had
on update (on delete) triggers defined we exposed the fact that such
optimization used by callng on update (not calling on delete) triggers.
Such behavior contradicts our documentation which describes REPLACE as
INSERT with optional DELETE.
This fix just disables this optimization for tables with on delete triggers.
The optimization is still applied for tables which have on update but have
no on delete triggers, we just don't invoke on update triggers in this case
and thus don't expose information about optimization to user.
Also added test coverage for values returned by ROW_COUNT() function (and
thus for values returned by mysql_affected_rows()) for various forms of
INSERT.
