After the ChangeSet 1.1892.20.1 2005/08/24 (Bug #12562) SYSDATE() is not an alias
of NOW() and is unsafe for replication.
`SYSDATE()' backward compatible aliasing clashes with the idea #12562
fix. To make it safe-replicatable we have to either use RBR or to restore
the pre-5.0 style.
--sysdate-is-now command line flag was introduced to provide backward compatibility.
produce wrong data
By default Item_sp_func::val_str() returns string from it's result_field
internal buffer. When grouping is present Item_copy_string is used to
store SP function result, but it doesn't additionally buffer the result.
When the next record is read, internal buffer is overwritten, due to
this Item_copy_string::val_str() will have wrong data. Thus producing
weird query result.
The Item_func_sp::val_str() now makes a copy of returned value to prevent
occasional corruption.
qualified subject table" which was introduced during work on bug #13525
"Rename table does not keep info of triggers".
The bug was caused by the fact that during reconstruction of CREATE TRIGGER
statement stored in .TRG file which happened during RENAME TABLE we damaged
trigger definition in case when it contained fully qualified name of subject
table (see comment for sql_yacc.yy for more info).
When the Item_cond::fix_fields() function reduces cond tree, it in loop
scans it's own list and when it founds Item_cond with same function (AND
or OR) it does next things: 1) replaces that item with item's list. 2)
empties item's list. Due to this operation is done twice - for update and
for view, at the update phase cond's list of lower view is already empty.
Empty list returns ref to itself, thus making endless loop by replacing
list with itself, emptying, replacing again and so on. This results in
server hung up.
To the Item_cond::fix_fields() function added check that ensures that
list being replaced with isn't empty.
time per connection
Removed const_string() method from Item_string (it was only used in one
place, in a bad way). Defer possible SP variable, and access data directly
instead, in date_format item.
Basically, this fix contains a test case and removing of a workaround
for replication. This fix became possible after pushing WL#2897
(Complete definer support in stored routines).
The idea is to add DEFINER-clause in CREATE PROCEDURE and CREATE FUNCTION
statements. Almost all support of definer in stored routines had been already
done before this patch.
NOTE: this patch changes behaviour of dumping stored routines in mysqldump.
Before this patch, mysqldump did not dump DEFINER-clause for stored routines
and this was documented behaviour. In order to get full information about stored
routines, one should have dumped mysql.proc table. This patch changes this
behaviour, so that DEFINER-clause is dumped.
Since DEFINER-clause is not supported in CREATE PROCEDURE | FUNCTION statements
before this patch, the clause is covered by additional version-specific comments.
if --skip-grant-tables specified.
The problem is that there is a check that prevents creating a definer
with empty host name.
In --skip-grant-tables mode this check prevents the user from creating a
trigger/view without explicitly specifying its definer. This happens, because
in --skip-grant-tables mode CURRENT_USER is ''@''. According to Sanja this
check was implemented intentionally.
However, according to the MySQL manual it is possible to specify empty host
name (as well as empty user name). Moreover, the behaviour for stored routines
is different in this aspect -- we allow them to be created with implicit
definer.
Based on this, we believe it is OK to change the behaviour for views to be
similar with the behaviour for stored routines.
