mysqldump --routine fails to dump databases containing backslash ("\")
character. This happened because escaped database name was being used as an
identifier while changing current database. Such identifers are not supposed
to be escaped, they must be properly quoted instead.
This includes fixing all utilities to not have any memory leaks,
as safemalloc warnings stopped tests from passing on MacOSX.
- Ensure that all clients takes character-set-dir, as the
libmysqlclient library will use it.
- mysql-test-run now passes character-set-dir to all external clients.
- Changed dynstr_free() so that it can be called twice (made freeing code easier)
- Changed rpl_global_gtid_slave_state to be allocated dynamicly as it
includes a mutex that needs to be initizlied/destroyed before my_end() is called.
- Removed rpl_slave_state::init() and rpl_slave_stage::deinit() as
their job are better handling by constructor and delete.
- Print alias instead of table_name in check_duplicate_key as
table_name may have been converted to lower case.
Other things:
- Fixed a case in time_to_datetime_with_warn() where we where
using && instead of & in tests
The following left in semi-improved state to keep patch size reasonable:
- Field operator new: left thd_alloc(current_thd)
- Sql_alloc operator new: left thd_alloc(thd_get_current_thd())
- Item_args constructors: left thd_alloc(thd)
- Item_func_interval::fix_length_and_dec(): no THD arg, have to call current_thd
- Item_func_dyncol_exists::val_int(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_str(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_int(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_real(): same
- Item_dyncol_get::val_decimal(): same
- Item_singlerow_subselect::fix_length_and_dec(): same
While querying INFORMATION SCHEMA, check for a table's engine
only used table name, but not schema name; so, if there were different
rows with the same table name, a wrong one could be retrieved.
The result of the check affected the decision whether the contents
of the table should be dumped, and whether a DELAYED option can be used.
Fixed by adding a clause for table_schema to the query.
Fix build failures caused by new C runtime library
- isnan, snprintf, struct timespec are now defined, attempt to
redefine them leads
- P_tmpdir, tzname are no more defined
- lfind() and lsearch() in lf_hash.c had to be renamed, declaration
conflicts with some C runtime functions with the same name declared in
a header included by stdlib.h
Also fix couple of annoying warnings :
- remove #define NOMINMAX from config.h to avoid "redefined" compiler
warnings(NOMINMAX is already in compile flags)
- disable incremental linker in Debug as well (feature not used much
and compiler crashes often)
Also simplify package building with Wix, require Wix 3.9 or later
(VS2015 is not compatible with old Wix 3.5/3.6)
===========
When doing an upgrade, you execute mysql_upgrade. If
mysql_upgrade fails to connect or it connects with a user
without the proper privileges, it will return the error:
FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed
which is not very informative.
ANALYSIS
========
In main() and check_version_match(), the condition for
errors are clubbed together and throw the same error msg.
The functions need to be splitted up and the corresponding
error msgs have to be displayed.
FIX
===
Splitted the functions and added the specific error msg.
new features:
set event_scheduler=ON|OFF will now try to init event scheduler
if it's not enabled
set event_scheduler=default will try to enable it based on
the value of the event_scheduler when mysqld was started
IMPLEMENTED IN ALL CLIENT PROGRAMS
Description: Option "enable-cleartext-plugin" is not
available for the following client utilities:-
mysqldump
mysqlimport
mysqlshow
mysqlcheck
Analysis: The unavailability of this option limits the
features like PAM authentication from using the above
mentioned utilities.
Fix: Option "enable-cleartext-plugin" is implemented in the
above mentioned client utilities.
There are three Log_event::read_log_event() methods:
1. read the event image from IO_CACHE into String
2. create Log_event from the in-memory event image
3. read the event image from IO_CACHE and create Log_event
The 3rd was reading event image into memory and invoking the 2nd to
create Log_event. Now the 3rd also uses the 1st to read the event image
from IO_CACHE into memory, instead of duplicating its functionality.
- If run with valgrind, mysqltest will now wait longer when syncronizing slave with master
- Ensure that we wait with cleanup() until slave thread has stopped.
- Added signal_thd_deleted() to signal close_connections() that all THD's has been freed.
- Check in handle_fatal_signal() that we don't use variables that has been freed.
- Increased some timeouts when run with --valgrind
Other things:
- Fixed wrong test in one_thread_per_connection_end() if galera is used.
- Removed not needed calls to THD_CHECK_SENTRY() when we are calling 'delete thd'.
prevent concurrent cleanups in multi-threaded mysqlimport
(they can happen if many threads get an error at the same time),
safe_exit() is not thread-safe.
MYSQLADMIN -U ROOT -P
DESCRIPTION
===========
Crash occurs when no command is given while executing
mysqladmin utility.
ANALYSIS
========
In mask_password() the final write to array 'temp_argv'
is done without checking if corresponding index 'argc'
is valid (non-negative) or not. In case its negative
(would happen when this function is called with 'argc'=0),
it may cause a SEGFAULT. Logically in such a case,
mask_password() should not have been called as it would do
no valid thing.
FIX
===
mask_password() is now called after checking 'argc'. This
function is now called only when 'argc' is positive
otherwise the process terminates
MULTIPLE THREADS
Description:- The utility "mysqlimport" does not use
multiple threads for the execution with option
"--use-threads". "mysqlimport" while importing multiple
files and multiple tables, uses a single thread even if the
number of threads are specified with "--use-threads" option.
Analysis:- This utility uses ifdef HAVE_LIBPTHREAD to check
for libpthread library and if defined uses libpthread
library for mutlithreaing. Since HAVE_LIBPTHREAD is not
defined anywhere in the source, "--use-threads" option is
silently ignored.
Fix:- "-DTHREADS" is set to the COMPILE_FLAGS which will
enable pthreads. HAVE_LIBPTHREAD macro is removed.
As the MF_THREAD_SPECIFIC was introduced to the alloc_root's and
the prealloc added to the statement::mem_root and statement::result.alloc, we have to adjust
the embedded server to it. The preallocation was removed for the embedded server as it
makes no sence for it. The msyqltest should free the statement inside the proper thead to
make the memory statistics happy.
Description:- mysqlslap is a diagnostic utility designed to
emulate client load for a MySQL server and to report the
timing of each stage. This utility crashes when invalid
values are passed to the options 'num_int_cols_opt' or
'num_chars_cols_opt' or 'engine'.
Analysis:- mysqlslap uses "parse_option()" to parse the
values specified to the options 'num_int_cols_opt',
'num_chars_cols_opt' and 'engine'. These options takes
values separated by commas. In "parse_option()", the comma
separated values are separated and copied into a buffer
without checking the length of the string to be copied. The
size of the buffer is defined by a macro HUGE_STRING_LENGTH
whose value is 8196. So if the length of the any of the
comma separated value exceeds HUGE_STRING_LENGTH, will
result in a buffer overflow.
Fix:- A check is introduced in "parse_option()" to check
whether the size of the string to be copied is more than
HUGE_STRING_LENGTH. If it is more, an error, "Invalid value
specified for the option 'xxx'" is thrown.
Option length was incorrectly calculated for the last comma
separated value. So fixed that as well.
mysqldump now attempts to make use of the INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables.
If the table name is not found with a case sensitive search, it
fallbacks to a case insensitive search.
Part 1: first 2 cases of valgrind complain. context_analysis_only can be used on non-started LEX (opening tables)
obviouse fixes in DBUG and is_lex_started assignment.
in when using vio->read_timeout (and write_timeout) to set
timeouts of a new vio, as in:
vio_timeout(vio, 0, old_vio.read_timeout)
vio_timeout(vio, 0, old_vio.write_timeout)
remember that timeouts are stored in ms, but vio_timeout()'s
argument is in seconds.
