ALTER TABLE temporarily creates a new table with a .frm
file and optionally other files. For fast ALTER TABLE
only the .frm file is created. If the operation succeeds,
The temporary files are renamed to their final target.
In case of an error, the temporary file was forgotten to
remove.
Manually tested. The test requires to look at files,
which I think cannot be done portably with the test suite.
The test file is attached to the bug report.
It was impossible to create some table names on Windows
(e.g. LPT1, AUX, COM1, etc).
Fixed to pad dangerous names with thee "at" signs
(e.g. LPT1@@@, AUX@@@, COM1@@@, and so on).
InnoDB requires a full table rebuild for foreign key changes.
It was not possible in compare_tables() to detect such changes.
On Heikkis proposal I added a new flag to the syntax parser
where foreign key definition changes are done. I test for
this flag in compare_tables() now.
The GROUP_CONCAT uses its own temporary table. When ROLLUP is present
it creates the second copy of Item_func_group_concat. This copy receives the
same list of arguments that original group_concat does. When the copy is
set up the result_fields of functions from the argument list are reset to the
temporary table of this copy.
As a result of this action data from functions flow directly to the ROLLUP copy
and the original group_concat functions shows wrong result.
Since queries with COUNT(DISTINCT ...) use temporary tables to store
the results the COUNT function they are also affected by this bug.
The idea of the fix is to copy content of the result_field for the function
under GROUP_CONCAT/COUNT from the first temporary table to the second one,
rather than setting result_field to point to the second temporary table.
To achieve this goal force_copy_fields flag is added to Item_func_group_concat
and Item_sum_count_distinct classes. This flag is initialized to 0 and set to 1
into the make_unique() member function of both classes.
To the TMP_TABLE_PARAM structure is modified to include the similar flag as
well.
The create_tmp_table() function passes that flag to create_tmp_field().
When the flag is set the create_tmp_field() function will set result_field
as a source field and will not reset that result field to newly created
field for Item_func_result_field and its descendants. Due to this there
will be created copy func to copy data from old result_field to newly
created field.
Added missing DBUG_xxx_RETURN statements
Fixed some usage of not initialized variables (as found by valgrind)
Ensure that we don't remove locked tables used as name locks from open table cache until unlock_table_names() are called.
This was fixed by having drop_locked_name() returning any table used as a name lock so that we can free it in unlock_table_names()
This will allow Tomas to continue with his work to use namelocks to syncronize things.
Note: valgrind still produces a lot of warnings about using not initialized code and shows memory loss errors when running the ndb tests
Loads of review comments fixed
inactivate => deactivate
table log => ddl log
Commented on Error Inject Module added
Put various #defines into enums
Fixed abort_and_upgrade_lock, removed unnecessary parameter
Fixed mysqlish method intro's
Fixed warning statements
5.1.7 was released still with partition states in clear text
Fixed io_size bug
Fixed bug in open that TRUNCATED before reading :)
file_entry => file_entry_buf
Don't open DDL log until first write call to DDL log
handler_type => handler_name
no => num
tables corrupt triggers".
It turned out that we also have relied at certain places that
(new_table != table_name) were always true on Windows and for transactional
tables. Since our fix for the bug brakes this assumption we have to add new
flag to pass this information around.
This code needs to be refactored but I dare not to do this in 5.0.
triggers".
Applying ALTER/OPTIMIZE/REPAIR TABLE statements to transactional table or to
table of any type on Windows caused disappearance of its triggers.
Bug was introduced in 5.0.19 by my fix for bug #13525 "Rename table does not
keep info of triggers" (see comment for sql_table.cc for more info).
.
Moved some code to else path to avoid delete, create, delete, create scenarios.
Fixed up the partition info object for some cases where we move from default
partitioning in NDB to default partitioning using partitioning.
Added new syntax ALTER TABLE t1 REMOVE PARTITIONING,
changed semantics of ALTER TABLE t1 ENGINE=X; to not remove partitioning
Fix a number of mix engine bugs in partitioning
added THD::work_part_info member where we now store modified
partition_info structure.
It allows no solve problem when different parts of the part_info get
into different mem_roots
