- fix for bug#16423 (Events: SHOW CREATE EVENT doesn't work)
- this Changeset commits makes CREATE/UPDATE/DELETE EVENT real DDL statements
by committing the currently open transaction before they are executed.
- this Changeset also fixes a trailing space problem since the very early days
of the internal cron
- adds sophisticated checking of whether mysql.event was tampered accidentally
or with purpose by an user.
- adds a lot of inline function documentation - documents everything left
uncodumented
- INTERVAL_XXXX to XXX in I_S.EVENTS.INTERVAL_FIELD
WL#1034 (Internal CRON)
Implement table-level TRIGGER privilege to control access to triggers.
Before this path global SUPER privilege was used for this purpose, that
was the big security problem.
In details, before this patch SUPER privilege was required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to create a new trigger;
- for the user at DROP TRIGGER time to drop the existing trigger;
- for the definer at trigger activation time to execute the trigger (if the
definer loses SUPER privilege, all its triggers become unavailable);
This patch changes the behaviour in the following way:
- TRIGGER privilege on the subject table for trigger is required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to create a new trigger;
- for the user at DROP TRIGGER time to drop the existing trigger;
- for the definer at trigger activation time to execute the trigger
(if the definer loses TRIGGER privilege on the subject table, all its
triggers on this table become unavailable).
- SUPER privilege is still required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to explicitly set the trigger
definer to the user other than CURRENT_USER().
When the server works with database of the previous version (w/o TRIGGER
privilege), or if the database is being upgraded from the previous versions,
TRIGGER privilege is granted to whose users, who have CREATE privilege.
There are two main idea of this fix:
- introduce a common function for server and client to split user value
(<user name>@<host name>) into user name and host name parts;
- dump DEFINER clause in correct format in mysqldump.
- Fixed tests
- Optimized new code
- Fixed some unlikely core dumps
- Better bug fixes for:
- #14397 - OPTIMIZE TABLE with an open HANDLER causes a crash
- #14850 (ERROR 1062 when a quering a view using a Group By on a column that can be null
when high concurrency": remove HASH::current_record and make it
an external search parameter, so that it can not be the cause of a
race condition under high concurrent load.
The bug was in a race condition in table_hash_search,
when column_priv_hash.current_record was overwritten simultaneously
by multiple threads, causing the search for a suitable grant record
to fail.
No test case as the bug is repeatable only under concurrent load.
- Encoding itself, implemented as a charset
"filename". Originally planned to use '.'
as an escape character, but now changed to '@'
for two reasons: "ls" does not return
file names starting with '.' considering them
as a kind of hidden files; some platforms
do not allow several dots in a file name.
- replacing many calls of my_snprintf() and
strnxmov() to the new build_table_filename().
- Adding MY_APPEND_EXT mysys flag, to append
an extention rather that replace it.
- Replacing all numeric constants in fn_format
flag arguments to their mysys definitions, e.g.
MY_UNPACK_FILENAME,
- Predictability in several function/methods:
when a table name can appear with or withot .frm
extension. Some functions/methods were changed
so accept names strictly with .frm, other - strictly
without .frm extensions. Several DBUG_ASSERTs were
added to check whether an extension is passed.
Many files:
table name to file name encoding
mysql_priv.h:
Prototypes for new table name encoding tools.
ctype-utf8.c:
Implementing "filename" charset for
table name to file name encoding.
row0mysql.c:
Fixing table name prefix.
mf_format.c:
Adding MY_APPEND_EXT processing.
Many files:
Fixing tests.
my_sys.h:
Adding new flag to append rather than replace an extension.
m_ctype.h:
Adding "filename" charset definition.
The problem was that databases with '_' in the name did not match a
correct ACL with a literal '_' (i.e. '\_') in the db name, only identical
strings matched. The fix makes this work, and also ACLs with wildcards in
the db name work.
- split into several files
- forbid parallel execution (before analyse is done how to make it possible)
because the same sp_head instance cannot be executed in parallel
- added GPL headers
- changed EVENT_ACL to be per DB variable
- fixed minor problems
Post-review fixes that simplify the way access rights
are checked during name resolution and factor out all
entry points to check access rights into one single
function.
