If a select query contained an ORDER BY clause that followed a LIMIT clause
or an ORDER BY clause or ORDER BY with LIMIT the EXPLAIN output for the
query showed an execution plan different from that was actually executed.

If a join query uses a derived table (view / CTE) with GROUP BY clause then
the execution plan for such join may employ split optimization. When this
optimization is employed the derived table is not materialized. Rather only
some partitions of the derived table are subject to grouping. Split
optimization can be applied only if:
- there are some indexes over the tables used in the join specifying the
derived table whose prefixes partially cover the field items used in the
GROUP BY list (such indexes are called splitting indexes)
- the WHERE condition of the join query contains conjunctive equalities
between columns of the derived table that comprise major parts of
splitting indexes and columns of the other join tables.
When the optimizer evaluates extending of a partial join by the rows of the
derived table it always considers a possibility of using split optimization.
Different splitting indexes can be used depending on the extended partial
join. At some rare conditions, for example, when there is a non-splitting
covering index for a table joined in the join specifying the derived table
usage of a splitting index to produce rows needed for grouping may be still
less beneficial than usage of such covering index without any splitting
technique. The function JOIN_TAB::choose_best_splitting() must take this
into account.

The problem was that when LOCK TABLES where unwinded as part of
a killed connection, unlink_all_closed_tables() did not like that
there was uncommited transactions.
Fixed by doing a rollback of any open transaction in this particular case.
In the code existed just before this patch binding of a table reference to
the specification of the corresponding CTE happens in the function
open_and_process_table(). If the table reference is not the first in the
query the specification is cloned in the same way as the specification of
a view is cloned for any reference of the view. This works fine for
standalone queries, but does not work for stored procedures / functions
for the following reason.
When the first call of a stored procedure/ function SP is processed the
body of SP is parsed. When a query of SP is parsed the info on each
encountered table reference is put into a TABLE_LIST object linked into
a global chain associated with the query. When parsing of the query is
finished the basic info on the table references from this chain except
table references to derived tables and information schema tables is put
in one hash table associated with SP. When parsing of the body of SP is
finished this hash table is used to construct TABLE_LIST objects for all
table references mentioned in SP and link them into the list of such
objects passed to a pre-locking process that calls open_and_process_table()
for each table from the list.
When a TABLE_LIST for a view is encountered the view is opened and its
specification is parsed. For any table reference occurred in
the specification a new TABLE_LIST object is created to be included into
the list for pre-locking. After all objects in the pre-locking have been
looked through the tables mentioned in the list are locked. Note that the
objects referenced CTEs are just skipped here as it is impossible to
resolve these references without any info on the context where they occur.
Now the statements from the body of SP are executed one by one that.
At the very beginning of the execution of a query the tables used in the
query are opened and open_and_process_table() now is called for each table
reference mentioned in the list of TABLE_LIST objects associated with the
query that was built when the query was parsed.
For each table reference first the reference is checked against CTEs
definitions in whose scope it occurred. If such definition is found the
reference is considered resolved and if this is not the first reference
to the found CTE the the specification of the CTE is re-parsed and the
result of the parsing is added to the parsing tree of the query as a
sub-tree. If this sub-tree contains table references to other tables they
are added to the list of TABLE_LIST objects associated with the query in
order the referenced tables to be opened. When the procedure that opens
the tables comes to the TABLE_LIST object created for a non-first
reference to a CTE it discovers that the referenced table instance is not
locked and reports an error.
Thus processing non-first table references to a CTE similar to how
references to view are processed does not work for queries used in stored
procedures / functions. And the main problem is that the current
pre-locking mechanism employed for stored procedures / functions does not
allow to save the context in which a CTE reference occur. It's not trivial
to save the info about the context where a CTE reference occurs while the
resolution of the table reference cannot be done without this context and
consequentially the specification for the table reference cannot be
determined.
This patch solves the above problem by moving resolution of all CTE
references at the parsing stage. More exactly references to CTEs occurred in
a query are resolved right after parsing of the query has finished. After
resolution any CTE reference it is marked as a reference to to derived
table. So it is excluded from the hash table created for pre-locking used
base tables and view when the first call of a stored procedure / function
is processed.
This solution required recursive calls of the parser. The function
THD::sql_parser() has been added specifically for recursive invocations of
the parser.
The problem was caused by the following scenario:
Subquery's table has two indexes, KEY a(a), KEY a_b(a,b)
- LATERAL DERIVED optimization decides to use index a.
= The subquery uses ref access over key a.
- test_if_skip_sort_order() sees that KEY a_b satisfies the
subquery's GROUP BY clause, and attempts to switch to it.
= It fails to do so, because KEYUSE objects for index a_b
are switched off.
Fixed by disallowing to change the ref access key if it uses KEYUSE
objects injected by LATERAL DERIVED optimization.
remove code duplication in Lex_input_stream::scan_ident_middle(),
make sure identifiers are always use the same code path whether
they start form an underscore or not.
The optimizer removes redundant GROUP BY operations. If GROUP BY element
is a subselect, it is "eliminated".
However one must not eliminate the item if it is used both in the select
list and in the GROUP BY, like so:
select (select ... ) as SUBQ from ... group by SUBQ
Do not eliminate such items.
Before this patch mergeable derived tables / view used in a multi-table
update / delete were merged before the preparation stage.
When the merge of a derived table / view is performed the on expression
attached to it is fixed and ANDed with the where condition of the select S
containing this derived table / view. It happens after the specification of
the derived table / view has been merged into S. If the ON expression refers
to a non existing field an error is reported and some other mergeable derived
tables / views remain unmerged. It's not a problem if the multi-table
update / delete statement is standalone. Yet if it is used in a stored
procedure the select with incompletely merged derived tables / views may
cause a problem for the second call of the procedure. This does not happen
for select queries using derived tables / views, because in this case their
specifications are merged after the preparation stage at which all ON
expressions are fixed.
This patch makes sure that merging of the derived tables / views used in a
multi-table update / delete statement is performed after the preparation
stage.

The easiest way to compile and test the server with UBSAN is to run:
./BUILD/compile-pentium64-ubsan
and then run mysql-test-run.
After this commit, one should be able to run this without any UBSAN
warnings. There is still a few compiler warnings that should be fixed
at some point, but these do not expose any real bugs.
The 'special' cases where we disable, suppress or circumvent UBSAN are:
- ref10 source (as here we intentionally do some shifts that UBSAN
complains about.
- x86 version of optimized int#korr() methods. UBSAN do not like unaligned
memory access of integers. Fixed by using byte_order_generic.h when
compiling with UBSAN
- We use smaller thread stack with ASAN and UBSAN, which forced me to
disable a few tests that prints the thread stack size.
- Verifying class types does not work for shared libraries. I added
suppression in mysql-test-run.pl for this case.
- Added '#ifdef WITH_UBSAN' when using integer arithmetic where it is
safe to have overflows (two cases, in item_func.cc).
Things fixed:
- Don't left shift signed values
(byte_order_generic.h, mysqltest.c, item_sum.cc and many more)
- Don't assign not non existing values to enum variables.
- Ensure that bool and enum values are properly initialized in
constructors. This was needed as UBSAN checks that these types has
correct values when one copies an object.
(gcalc_tools.h, ha_partition.cc, item_sum.cc, partition_element.h ...)
- Ensure we do not called handler functions on unallocated objects or
deleted objects.
(events.cc, sql_acl.cc).
- Fixed bugs in Item_sp::Item_sp() where we did not call constructor
on Query_arena object.
- Fixed several cast of objects to an incompatible class!
(Item.cc, Item_buff.cc, item_timefunc.cc, opt_subselect.cc, sql_acl.cc,
sql_select.cc ...)
- Ensure we do not do integer arithmetic that causes over or underflows.
This includes also ++ and -- of integers.
(Item_func.cc, Item_strfunc.cc, item_timefunc.cc, sql_base.cc ...)
- Added JSON_VALUE_UNITIALIZED to json_value_types and ensure that
value_type is initialized to this instead of to -1, which is not a valid
enum value for json_value_types.
- Ensure we do not call memcpy() when second argument could be null.
- Fixed that Item_func_str::make_empty_result() creates an empty string
instead of a null string (safer as it ensures we do not do arithmetic
on null strings).
Other things:
- Changed struct st_position to an OBJECT and added an initialization
function to it to ensure that we do not copy or use uninitialized
members. The change to a class was also motived that we used "struct
st_position" and POSITION randomly trough the code which was
confusing.
- Notably big rewrite in sql_acl.cc to avoid using deleted objects.
- Changed in sql_partition to use '^' instead of '-'. This is safe as
the operator is either 0 or 0x8000000000000000ULL.
- Added check for select_nr < INT_MAX in JOIN::build_explain() to
avoid bug when get_select() could return NULL.
- Reordered elements in POSITION for better alignment.
- Changed sql_test.cc::print_plan() to use pointers instead of objects.
- Fixed bug in find_set() where could could execute '1 << -1'.
- Added variable have_sanitizer, used by mtr. (This variable was before
only in 10.5 and up). It can now have one of two values:
ASAN or UBSAN.
- Moved ~Archive_share() from ha_archive.cc to ha_archive.h and marked
it virtual. This was an effort to get UBSAN to work with loaded storage
engines. I kept the change as the new place is better.
- Added in CONNECT engine COLBLK::SetName(), to get around a wrong cast
in tabutil.cpp.
- Added HAVE_REPLICATION around usage of rgi_slave, to get embedded
server to compile with UBSAN. (Patch from Marko).
- Added #ifdef for powerpc64 to avoid a bug in old gcc versions related
to integer arithmetic.
Changes that should not be needed but had to be done to suppress warnings
from UBSAN:
- Added static_cast<<uint16_t>> around shift to get rid of a LOT of
compiler warnings when using UBSAN.
- Had to change some '/' of 2 base integers to shift to get rid of
some compile time warnings.

A user connected to a server with an expired password
can't change password with the statement "SET password=..."
if this statement is run in PS mode. In mentioned use case a user
gets the error ER_MUST_CHANGE_PASSWORD on attempt to run
the statement PREPARE stmt FOR "SET password=...";
The reason of failure to reset password by a locked user using the
statement PREPARE stmt FOR "SET password=..." is that PS-related
statements are not listed among the commands allowed for execution
by a user with expired password. However, simple adding of PS-related
statements (PREPARE FOR/EXECUTE/DEALLOCATE PREPARE ) to the list of
statements allowed for execution by a locked user is not enough
to solve problems, since it opens the opportunity for a locked user
to execute any statement in the PS mode.
To exclude this opportunity, additional checking that the statement
being prepared for execution in PS-mode is the SET statement has to be added.
This extra checking has been added by this patch into the method
Prepared_statement::prepared() that executed on preparing any statement
for execution in PS-mode.
Handle "col<>const" in the same way that MDEV-21958 did for
"col NOT IN(const-list)": do not use the condition for range/index_merge
accesses if there is a unique UNIQUE KEY(col).
The testcase is in main/range.test. The rest of test updates are
due to widespread use of 'pk<>1' in the testsuite. Changed the test
to use different but equivalent forms of the conditions.
Fixed by adding a MDL_BACKUP_COMMIT lock before altering temporary tables
whose creation was logged to binary log (in which case the ALTER TABLE
must also be logged)
splittable derived
If one of joined tables of the processed query is a materialized derived
table (or view or CTE) with GROUP BY clause then under some conditions it
can be subject to split optimization. With this optimization new equalities
are injected into the WHERE condition of the SELECT that specifies this
derived table. The injected equalities are generated for all join orders
with which the split optimization can employed. After the best join order
has been chosen only certain of this equalities are really needed. The
others can be safely removed. If it's not done and some of injected
equalities involve expressions over semi-joins with look-up access then
the query may return a wrong result set.
This patch effectively removes equalities injected for split optimization
that are needed only at the optimization stage and not needed for execution.

The fix of the bug MDEV-25002 for 10.4 turned out to be incomplete. It
caused crashes when executing CREATE VIEW, CREATE TABLE .. SELECT,
INSERT .. SELECT statements if their SELECTs contained references to
non-existing fields.
This patch complements the fix for MDEV-25002 in order to avoid such
crashes.
