use partial primary key if another index can prevent filesort
The fix for bug #28404 causes the covering ordering indexes to be
preferred unconditionally over non-covering and ref indexes.
Fixed by comparing the cost of using a covering index to the cost of
using a ref index even for covering ordering indexes.
Added an assertion to clarify the condition the local variables should
be in.
uninitialized variable used as subscript
Grouping select from a "constant" InnoDB table (a table
of a single row) joined with other tables caused a crash.
Certain multi-updates gave different results on InnoDB from
to MyISAM, due to on-the-fly updates being used on the former and
the update order matters.
Fixed by turning off on-the-fly updates when update order
dependencies are present.

The server crashes on an assert in net_end_statement indicating that the
Diagnostics area wasn't set properly during execution.
This happened on a multi table DELETE operation using the IGNORE keyword.
The keyword is suppose to allow for execution to continue on a best effort
despite some non-fatal errors. Instead execution stopped and no client
response was sent which would have led to a protocol error if it hadn't been
for the assert.
This patch corrects this issue by checking for the existence of an IGNORE
option before setting an error state during row-by-row delete iteration.
Moved the test case for the bug into a separate file (and restored the
original innodb_mysql test setup).
Used the new wait_show_condition test macro to avoid the usage of sleep
connections
The problem is that tables can enter open table cache for a thread without
being properly cleaned up. This can happen if make_join_statistics() fails
to read a const table because of e.g. a deadlock. It does set a member of
TABLE structure to a value it allocates, but doesn't clean-up this setting
on error nor does it set the rest of the members in JOIN to allow for
automatic cleanup.
As a result when such an error occurs and the next statement depends re-uses
the table from the open tables cache it will get it with this
TABLE::reginfo.join_tab pointing to a memory area that's freed.
Fixed by making sure make_join_statistics() cleans up TABLE::reginfo.join_tab
on error.
The special TRUNCATE TABLE (DDL) transaction wasn't being properly
rolled back if a error occurred during row by row deletion. The
error can be caused by a foreign key restriction imposed by InnoDB
SE and would cause the server to erroneously issue a implicit
commit.
The solution is to rollback the transaction if a truncation via row
by row deletion fails, otherwise commit. All effects of a TRUNCATE
ABLE operation are rolled back if a row by row deletion fails.
locking type of temp table
The problem is that INSERT INTO .. SELECT FROM .. and CREATE
TABLE .. SELECT FROM a temporary table could inadvertently
overwrite the locking type of the temporary table. The lock
type of temporary tables should be a write lock by default.
The solution is to reset the lock type of temporary tables
back to its default value after they are used in a statement.
column
When the storage engine uses secondary keys clustered with the primary key MySQL was
adding the primary key parts to each secondary key.
In doing so it was not checking whether the index was on full columns and this
resulted in the secondary keys being added to the list of covering keys even if
they have partial columns.
Fixed by not adding a primary key part to the list of columns that can be used
for index read of the secondary keys when the primary key part is a partial key part.
The bug is repeatable with latest(1.0.1) InnoDB plugin on Linux, Win,
If MySQL is compiled with valgrind there are errors about
using of uninitialized variable(orig_table).
The fix is to set field->orig_table correct value.
When statement-based replication is used, and the
transaction isolation level is READ-COMMITTED or stricter,
InnoDB will print an error because statement-based
replication might lead to inconsistency between master
and slave databases. However, when the binary log is not
engaged, this is not an issue and an error should
not be printed.
This patch makes thd_binlog_format() return BINLOG_FORMAT_
UNSPEC when the binary log is not engaged for the given
thread.
Range scan in descending order for c <= <col> <= c type of
ranges was ignoring the DESC flag.
However some engines like InnoDB have the primary key parts
as a suffix for every secondary key.
When such primary key suffix is used for ordering ignoring
the DESC is not valid.
But we generally would like to do this because it's faster.
Fixed by performing only reverse scan if the primary key is used.
Removed some dead code in the process.
- Disable the "prefer full scan on clustered primary key over full scan
of any secondary key" rule introduced by BUG#35850.
- Update test results accordingly
(bk trigger: file this for BUG#35850)
The index (key_part_1, key_part-2) was erroneously considered as compatible
with the required ordering in the function test_test_if_order_by_key when
a query with an ORDER BY clause contained a condition of the form
key_part_1=const OR key_part_1 IS NULL
and the order list contained only key_part_2. This happened because the value
of the const_key_parts field in the KEYUSE structure was not formed correctly
for the keys that could be used for ref_or_null access.
This was fixed in the code of the update_ref_and_keys function.
The problem could not manifest itself for MyISAM databases because the
implementation of the keys_to_use_for_scanning() handler function always
returns an empty bitmap for the MyISAM engine.

Problem: if a partial unique key followed by a non-partial one we declare
the second one as a primary key.
Fix: sort non-partial unique keys before partial ones.
The optimizer sets index traversal in reverse order only if there are
used key parts that are not compared to a constant.
However using the primary key as an ORDER BY suffix rendered the check
incomplete : going in reverse order must still be used even if
all the parts of the secondary key are compared to a constant.
Fixed by relaxing the check and set reverse traversal even when all
the secondary index keyparts are compared to a const.
Also account for the case when all the primary keys are compared to a
constant.
The optimization that uses a unique index to remove GROUP BY, did not
ensure that the index was actually used, thus violating the ORDER BY
that is impled by GROUP BY.
Fixed by replacing GROUP BY with ORDER BY if the GROUP BY clause contains
a unique index. In case GROUP BY ... ORDER BY null is used, GROUP BY is
simply removed.
ORDER BY is used
The range analysis module did not correctly signal to the
handler that a range represents a ref (EQ_RANGE flag). This causes
non-range queries like
SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE keypart_1=const, ..., keypart_n=const
ORDER BY ... FOR UPDATE
to wait for a lock unneccesarily if another running transaction uses
SELECT ... FOR UPDATE on the same table.
Fixed by setting EQ_RANGE for all range accesses that represent
an equality predicate.
between perm and temp tables. Review fixes.
The original bug report complains that if we locked a temporary table
with LOCK TABLES statement, we would not leave LOCK TABLES mode
when this temporary table is dropped.
Additionally, the bug was escalated when it was discovered than
when a temporary transactional table that was previously
locked with LOCK TABLES statement was dropped, futher actions with
this table, such as UNLOCK TABLES, would lead to a crash.
The problem originates from incomplete support of transactional temporary
tables. When we added calls to handler::store_lock()/handler::external_lock()
to operations that work with such tables, we only covered the normal
server code flow and did not cover LOCK TABLES mode.
In LOCK TABLES mode, ::external_lock(LOCK) would sometimes be called without
matching ::external_lock(UNLOCK), e.g. when a transactional temporary table
was dropped. Additionally, this table would be left in the list of LOCKed
TABLES.
The patch aims to address this inadequacy. Now, whenever an instance
of 'handler' is destroyed, we assert that it was priorly
external_lock(UNLOCK)-ed. All the places that violate this assert
were fixed.
This patch introduces no changes in behavior -- the discrepancy in
behavior will be fixed when we start calling ::store_lock()/::external_lock()
for all tables, regardless whether they are transactional or not,
temporary or not.
ORDER BY primary_key on InnoDB table
Queries that use an InnoDB secondary index to retrieve
data don't need to sort in case of ORDER BY primary key
if the secondary index is compared to constant(s).
They can also skip sorting if ORDER BY contains both the
the secondary key parts and the primary key parts (in
that order).
This is because InnoDB returns the rows in order of the
primary key for rows with the same values of the secondary
key columns.
Fixed by preventing temp table sort for the qualifying
queries.
by long running transaction
On Windows opened files can't be deleted. There was a special
upgraded lock mode (TL_WRITE instead of TL_WRITE_ALLOW_READ)
in ALTER TABLE to make sure nobody has the table opened
when deleting the old table in ALTER TABLE. This special mode
was causing ALTER TABLE to hang waiting on a lock inside InnoDB.
This special lock is no longer necessary as the server is
closing the tables it needs to delete in ALTER TABLE.
Fixed by removing the special lock.
Note that this also reverses the fix for bug 17264 that deals with
another consequence of this special lock mode being used.
Problem: we may break a multibyte char sequence using a key
reduced to maximum allowed length for a storage engine
(that leads to failed assertion in the innodb code,
see also #17530).
Fix: align truncated key length to multibyte char boundary.
This bug may manifest itself not only with the queries for which
the index-merge access method is chosen. It also may display
itself for queries with DISTINCT.
The bug was in how the Unique::get method used the merge_buffers
function. To compare elements in the the queue employed by
merge_buffers() it must use the buffpek_compare function rather
than the function for binary comparison.
LOCK TABLES takes a list of tables to lock. It may lock several
tables successfully and then encounter a tables that it can't lock,
e.g. because it's locked. In such case it needs to undo the locks on
the already locked tables. And it does that. But it has also notified
the relevant table storage engine handlers that they should lock.
The only reliable way to ensure that the table handlers will give up
their locks is to end the transaction. This is what UNLOCK TABLE
does : it ends the transaction if there were locked tables by LOCK
tables.
It is possible to end the transaction when the lock fails in
LOCK TABLES because LOCK TABLES ends the transaction at its start
already.
Fixed by ending (again) the transaction when LOCK TABLES fails to
lock a table.

Give correct error message if InnoDB table is not found
(This allows us to drop a an innodb table that is not in the InnoDB registery)
wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20)
must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer.
This is what Field_string::store() does.
Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.
Problem: we may create a deadlock committing changes in the mysql_alter_table() when
LOCK_open is set. Moreover, "in some variants of the ALTER TABLE commit
happens earlier, outside of LOCK_open, in other later - inside. It's no good, a storage
engine code that is called in between could expect a consistency - either there is a
transaction or there is not".
Fix: move the commit to happen earlier and outside of the LOCK_open.
