Problem: mysqld doesn't detect that enum data must be reinserted performing
'ALTER TABLE' in some cases.
Fix: reinsert data altering an enum field if enum values are changed.
- Make send_row_on_empty_set() return FALSE when simplify_cond() has found out
that HAVING is always FALSE
re-committing to put the fix into 5.0 and 5.1
The problem was that the server did not robustly handle a
unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (RM)
due to a resource deadlock within the transaction branch.
By not acknowledging the roll back, the server (TM) would
eventually corrupt the XA transaction state and crash.
The solution is to mark the transaction as rollback-only
if the RM indicates that it rolled back its branch of the
transaction.

fails after the first time
Two separate problems :
1. When flattening joins the linked list used for name resolution
(next_name_resolution_table) was not updated.
Fixed by updating the pointers when extending the table list
2. The items created by expanding a * (star) as a column reference
were marked as fixed, but no cached table was assigned to them
(unlike what Item_field::fix_fields does).
Fixed by assigning a cached table (so the re-preparation is done
faster).
Note that the fix for #2 hides the fix for #1 in most cases
(except when a table reference cannot be cached).
Server crashed during a sort order optimization
of a dependent subquery:
SELECT
(SELECT t1.a FROM t1, t2
WHERE t1.a = t2.b AND t2.a = t3.c
ORDER BY t1.a)
FROM t3;
Bitmap of tables, that the reference to outer table
column uses, in addition to the regular table bit
has the OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT bit set.
The only_eq_ref_tables function traverses this map
bit by bit simultaneously with join->map2table list.
Obviously join->map2table never contains an entry
for the OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT pseudo-table, so the
server crashed there.
The only_eq_ref_tables function has been modified
to traverse regular table bits only like the
update_depend_map function (resetting of the
OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT there is enough, but
resetting of the whole set of PSEUDO_TABLE_BITS
is used there for sure).
The problem is that the offset argument of the limit clause
might be truncated on a 32-bits server built without big
tables support. The truncation was happening because the
original 64-bits long argument was being cast to a 32-bits
(ha_rows) offset counter.
The solution is to check if the conversing resulted in value
truncation and if so, the offset is set to the maximum possible
value that can fit on the type.
The problem is that field names constructed due to wild-card
expansion done inside a stored procedure could point to freed
memory if the expansion was performed after the first call to
the stored procedure.
The problem was solved by patch for Bug#38691. The solution
was to allocate the database, table and field names in the
in the statement memory instead of table memory.
on non-partitioned table
Problem was that partitioning specific commands was accepted
for non partitioned tables and treated like
ANALYZE/CHECK/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR TABLE, after bug-20129 was fixed,
which changed the code path from mysql_alter_table to
mysql_admin_table.
Solution was to check if the table was partitioned before
trying to execute the admin command
Select with a "NULL NOT IN" condition containing complex
subselect from the same table as in the outer select failed
with an assertion.
The failure was caused by a concatenation of circumstances:
1) an inner select was optimized by make_join_statistics to use
the QUICK_RANGE_SELECT access method (that implies an index
scan of the table);
2) a subselect was independent (constant) from the outer select;
3) a condition was pushed down into inner select.
During the evaluation of a constant IN expression an optimizer
temporary changed the access method from index scan to table
scan, but an engine handler was already initialized for index
access by make_join_statistics. That caused an assertion.
Unnecessary index initialization has been removed from
the QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::init method (QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::reset
reinvokes this initialization).
with COALESCE and JOIN
The server returned to a client the VARBINARY column type
instead of the DATE type for a result of the COALESCE,
IFNULL, IF, CASE, GREATEST or LEAST functions if that result
was filesorted in an anonymous temporary table during
the query execution.
For example:
SELECT COALESCE(t1.date1, t2.date2) AS result
FROM t1 JOIN t2 ON t1.id = t2.id ORDER BY result;
To create a column of various date/time types in a
temporary table the create_tmp_field_from_item() function
uses the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() method
call. However, fields of the MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDATE type were
missed there, and the VARBINARY columns were created
by default.
Necessary condition has been added.
index column
There was actually two problems
1) when clustered pk, order by non pk index should also
compare with pk as last resort to differ keys from each
other
2) bug in the index search handling in ha_partition (was
found when extending the test case
Solution to 1 was to include the pk in key compare if
clustered pk and search on other index.
Solution for 2 was to remove the optimization from
ordered scan to unordered scan if clustered pk.
derived table cause crash
When a multi-UPDATE command fails to lock some table, and
subsequently succeeds, the tables need to be reopened if
they were altered. But the reopening procedure failed for
derived tables.
Extra cleanup has been added.
The problem was that PACK_KEYS and MAX_ROWS clause in ALTER TABLE did not trigger
table reconstruction.
The fix is to rebuild a table if PACK_KEYS or MAX_ROWS are specified.
When running Stored Routines the Status Variable "Questions" was wrongly
incremented. According to the manual it should contain the "number of
statements that clients have sent to the server"
Introduced a new status variable 'questions' to replace the query_id
variable which currently corresponds badly with the number of statements
sent by the client.
The new behavior is ment to be backward compatible with 4.0 and at the
same time work with new features in a similar way.
This is a backport from 6.0
The code to get read the value of a system variable was extracting its value
on PREPARE stage and was substituting the value (as a constant) into the parse tree.
Note that this must be a reversible transformation, i.e. it must be reversed before
each re-execution.
Unfortunately this cannot be reliably done using the current code, because there are
other non-reversible source tree transformations that can interfere with this
reversible transformation.
Fixed by not resolving the value at PREPARE, but at EXECUTE (as the rest of the
functions operate). Added a cache of the value (so that it's constant throughout
the execution of the query). Note that the cache also caches NULL values.
Updated an obsolete related test suite (variables-big) and the code to test the
result type of system variables (as per bug 74).
``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK''
Concurrent execution of 1) multitable update with a
NATURAL/USING join and 2) a such query as "FLUSH TABLES
WITH READ LOCK" or "ALTER TABLE" of updating table led
to a server crash.
The mysql_multi_update_prepare() function call is optimized
to lock updating tables only, so it postpones locking to
the last, and if locking fails, it does cleanup of modified
syntax structures and repeats a query analysis. However,
that cleanup procedure was incomplete for NATURAL/USING join
syntax data: 1) some Field_item items pointed into freed
table structures, and 2) the TABLE_LIST::join_columns fields
was not reset.
Major change:
short-living Field *Natural_join_column::table_field has
been replaced with long-living Item*.
