The crash happened with an indexed virtual column whose
value is evaluated using a function that has a different meaning
in sql_mode='' vs sql_mode=ORACLE:
- DECODE()
- LTRIM()
- RTRIM()
- LPAD()
- RPAD()
- REPLACE()
- SUBSTR()
For example:
CREATE TABLE t1 (
b VARCHAR(1),
g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL,
KEY g(g)
);
So far we had replacement XXX_ORACLE() functions for all mentioned function,
e.g. SUBSTR_ORACLE() for SUBSTR(). So it was possible to correctly re-parse
SUBSTR_ORACLE() even in sql_mode=''.
But it was not possible to re-parse the MariaDB version of SUBSTR()
after switching to sql_mode=ORACLE. It was erroneously mis-interpreted
as SUBSTR_ORACLE().
As a result, this combination worked fine:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t1 ... g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL, ...;
INSERT ...
FLUSH TABLES;
SET sql_mode='';
INSERT ...
But the other way around it crashed:
SET sql_mode='';
CREATE TABLE t1 ... g CHAR(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (SUBSTR(b,0,0)) VIRTUAL, ...;
INSERT ...
FLUSH TABLES;
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
INSERT ...
At CREATE time, SUBSTR was instantiated as Item_func_substr and printed
in the FRM file as substr(). At re-open time with sql_mode=ORACLE, "substr()"
was erroneously instantiated as Item_func_substr_oracle.
Fix:
The fix proposes a symmetric solution. It provides a way to re-parse reliably
all sql_mode dependent functions to their original CREATE TABLE time meaning,
no matter what the open-time sql_mode is.
We take advantage of the same idea we previously used to resolve sql_mode
dependent data types.
Now all sql_mode dependent functions are printed by SHOW using a schema
qualifier when the current sql_mode differs from the function sql_mode:
SET sql_mode='';
CREATE TABLE t1 ... SUBSTR(a,b,c) ..;
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1; -> mariadb_schema.substr(a,b,c)
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 ... SUBSTR(a,b,c) ..;
SET sql_mode='';
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1; -> oracle_schema.substr(a,b,c)
Old replacement names like substr_oracle() are still understood for
backward compatibility and used in FRM files (for downgrade compatibility),
but they are not printed by SHOW any more.
Adding virtual methods to class Schema:
make_item_func_replace()
make_item_func_substr()
make_item_func_trim()
This is a non-functional preparatory change for MDEV-27744.
This patch is the result of running
run-clang-tidy -fix -header-filter=.* -checks='-*,modernize-use-equals-default' .
Code style changes have been done on top. The result of this change
leads to the following improvements:
1. Binary size reduction.
* For a -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release build, the binary size is reduced by
~400kb.
* A raw -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release reduces the binary size by ~1.4kb.
2. Compiler can better understand the intent of the code, thus it leads
to more optimization possibilities. Additionally it enabled detecting
unused variables that had an empty default constructor but not marked
so explicitly.
Particular change required following this patch in sql/opt_range.cc
result_keys, an unused template class Bitmap now correctly issues
unused variable warnings.
Setting Bitmap template class constructor to default allows the compiler
to identify that there are no side-effects when instantiating the class.
Previously the compiler could not issue the warning as it assumed Bitmap
class (being a template) would not be performing a NO-OP for its default
constructor. This prevented the "unused variable warning".
- Adding optional qualifiers to data types:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a schema.DATE);
Qualifiers now work only for three pre-defined schemas:
mariadb_schema
oracle_schema
maxdb_schema
These schemas are virtual (hard-coded) for now, but may turn into real
databases on disk in the future.
- mariadb_schema.TYPE now always resolves to a true MariaDB data
type TYPE without sql_mode specific translations.
- oracle_schema.DATE translates to MariaDB DATETIME.
- maxdb_schema.TIMESTAMP translates to MariaDB DATETIME.
- Fixing SHOW CREATE TABLE to use a qualifier for a data type TYPE
if the current sql_mode translates TYPE to something else.
The above changes fix the reported problem, so this script:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 AS SELECT mariadb_date_column FROM t1;
is now replicated as:
SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
CREATE TABLE t2 (mariadb_date_column mariadb_schema.DATE);
and the slave can unambiguously treat DATE as the true MariaDB DATE
without ORACLE specific translation to DATETIME.
Similar,
SET sql_mode=MAXDB;
CREATE TABLE t2 AS SELECT mariadb_timestamp_column FROM t1;
is now replicated as:
SET sql_mode=MAXDB;
CREATE TABLE t2 (mariadb_timestamp_column mariadb_schema.TIMESTAMP);
so the slave treats TIMESTAMP as the true MariaDB TIMESTAMP
without MAXDB specific translation to DATETIME.
