The bug could cause choosing a sub-optimal execution plan for
a single-table query if a unique index with many null keys were
defined for the table.
It happened because the code of the check_quick_keys function
made an assumption that any key may occur in an unique index
only once. Yet this is not true for keys with nulls that may
have multiple occurrences in the index.
index_read(), index_read_idx(), index_read_last(), and
records_in_range() - instead of 'uint keylen' argument take
'ulonglong keypart_map', a bitmap showing which keyparts are
present in the key value.
Fallback method is provided for handlers that are lagging behind.
Removed a lot of compiler warnings
Removed not used variables, functions and labels
Initialize some variables that could be used unitialized (fatal bugs)

Multi-table delete that is optimized with QUICK_RANGE reports table
corruption.
DELETE statement must not use KEYREAD optimization, and sets
table->no_keyread to 1. This was ignored in QUICK_RANGE optimization.
With this fix QUICK_RANGE optimization honors table->no_keyread
value and does not enable KEYREAD when it is requested.
- Removed not used variables and functions
- Added #ifdef around code that is not used
- Renamed variables and functions to avoid conflicts
- Removed some not used arguments
Fixed some class/struct warnings in ndb
Added define IS_LONGDATA() to simplify code in libmysql.c
I did run gcov on the changes and added 'purecov' comments on almost all lines that was not just variable name changes
Fixed compiler warnings (detected by VC++):
- Removed not used variables
- Added casts
- Fixed wrong assignments to bool
- Fixed wrong calls with bool arguments
- Added missing argument to store(longlong), which caused wrong store method to be called.
- Removed not used variables
- Changed some ulong parameters/variables to ulonglong (possible serious bug)
- Added casts to get rid of safe assignment from longlong to long (and similar)
- Added casts to function parameters
- Fixed signed/unsigned compares
- Added some constructores to structures
- Removed some not portable constructs
Better fix for bug Bug #21428 "skipped 9 bytes from file: socket (3)" on "mysqladmin shutdown"
(Added new parameter to net_clear() to define when we want the communication buffer to be emptied)
statements
Currently the optimizer evaluates loose index scan only for top-level SELECT
statements
Extend loose index scan applicability by :
- Test the applicability of loose scan for each sub-select, instead of the
whole query. This change enables loose index scan for sub-queries.
- allow non-select statements with SELECT parts (like, e.g.
CREATE TABLE .. SELECT ...) to use loose index scan.
Added missing DBUG_RETURN statements (in mysqldump.c)
Added missing enums
Fixed a lot of wrong DBUG_PRINT() statements, some of which could cause crashes
Removed usage of %lld and %p in printf strings as these are not portable or produces different results on different systems.
(Mostly in DBUG_PRINT() and unused arguments)
Fixed bug in query cache when used with traceing (--with-debug)
Fixed memory leak in mysqldump
Removed warnings from mysqltest scripts (replaced -- with #)
We miss some records sometimes using RANGE method if we have
partial key segments.
Example:
Create table t1(a char(2), key(a(1)));
insert into t1 values ('a'), ('xx');
select a from t1 where a > 'x';
We call index_read() passing 'x' key and HA_READ_AFTER_KEY flag
in the handler::read_range_first() wich is wrong because we have
a partial key segment for the field and might miss records like 'xx'.
Fix: don't use open segments in such a case.
When using index for group by and range access the server isolates
a set of ranges based on the conditions over the key parts of the
index used. Then it uses only the ranges over the GROUP BY fields to
jump from one group to another. Since the GROUP BY fields may form a
prefix over the index, we may use only a prefix of the ranges produced
by the range optimizer.
Each range contains a notion on whether it includes its border values.
The problem is that when using a range prefix, the last range is open
because it assumes that there is a range on the next keypart. Thus when
we use a prefix range as it is, it excludes all border values.
The solution is when ignoring the suffix of the range conditions
(to jump over the GROUP BY prefix only) the server must change the
remaining intervals so they always contain their borders, e.g.
if the whole range was :
(1,-inf) <= (<group_by_col>,<min_max_arg_col>) < (1, 3) we must make
(1) <= (<group_by_col>) <= (1) because (a,b) < (c1,c2) means :
a < c1 OR (a = c1 AND b < c2).
