A buffer large enough to hold the query _plus_ some additional
data is allocated before parsing is started. The additional data
is used by the query cache, and consists of the name of the current
database and a set of flags.
When a packet containing multiple SQL statements is sent to the
server and one of the statements changes the current database
(a "USE <db>" statement), and the name of the new current database
is longer than of the previous, there is not enough space in the
buffer for the new name, and we write out over the buffer boundary.
The fix adds an extra field to store the number of bytes
allocated to the database name in the buffer. If the current
database name changes, and the new name is longer than the
previous one, we refuse to cache the query.

Problem: The following statements can cause the slave to go out of sync
if logged in statement format:
INSERT IGNORE...SELECT
INSERT ... SELECT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
REPLACE ... SELECT
UPDATE IGNORE :
CREATE ... IGNORE SELECT
CREATE ... REPLACE SELECT
Background: Since the order of the rows returned by the SELECT
statement or otherwise may differ on master and slave, therefore
the above statements may cuase the salve to go out of sync with
the master.
Fix:
Issue a warning when statements like the above are exectued and
the bin-logging format is statement. If the logging format is mixed,
use row based logging. Marking a statement as unsafe has been
done in the sql/sql_parse.cc instead of sql/sql_yacc.cc, because while
parsing for a token has been done we cannot be sure if the parsing
of the other tokens has been done as well.
Six new warning messages has been added for each unsafe statement.

- If USER is given, all threads for that user is signaled
- If SOFT is used then the KILL will not be sent to the handler. This can be used to not interrupt critical things in the handler like 'REPAIR'.
Internally added more kill signals. This gives us more information of why a query/connection was killed.
- KILL_SERVER is used when server is going down. In this case the users gets ER_SHUTDOWN as the reason connection was killed.
- Changed signals to number in correct order, which makes it easier to test how the signal should affect the code.

The main problem was that lex_start() was forgotten to be called before processing
COM_REFRESH.
Another problem discovered was that if failures to flush the error log were not properly
handled, which resulted in the server crash.
The user-visible effect of these problems were:
- if COM_REFRESH command was sent after SQL-queries of some sort,
the server would crash.
- if COM_REFRESH was requested with REFRESH_LOG only, and the error log
failed to flush, the server would crash. The error log fails to flush
when it points to unavailable file (for example, due to restricted
permissions).
The fixes are:
- call lex_start() in the beginning of COM_REFRESH;
- handle failures to flush the error log properly, i.e. raise ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR.

- The problem was that the code that made the check whether the subquery is an AND-part of the WHERE
clause didn't work correctly for nested subqueries. In particular, grand-child subquery in HAVING was
treated as if it was in the WHERE, which eventually caused an assert when replace_where_subcondition
looked for the subquery predicate in the WHERE and couldn't find it there.
- The fix: Removed implementation of "thd_marker approach". thd->thd_marker was used to determine the
location of subquery predicate: setup_conds() would set accordingly it when making the
{where|on_expr}->fix_fields(...)
call so that AND-parts of the WHERE/ON clauses can determine they are the AND-parts.
Item_cond_or::fix_fields(), Item_func::fix_fields(), Item_subselect::fix_fields (this one was missed),
and all other items-that-contain-items had to reset thd->thd_marker before calling fix_fields() for
their children items, so that the children can see they are not AND-parts of WHERE/ON.
- The "thd_marker approach" required that a lot of code in different locations maintains correct value of
thd->thd_marker, so it was replaced with:
- The new approach with mark_as_condition_AND_part does not keep context in thd->thd_marker. Instead,
setup_conds() now calls
{where|on_expr}->mark_as_condition_AND_part()
and implementations of that function make sure that:
- parts of AND-expressions get the mark_as_condition_AND_part() call
- Item_in_subselect objects record that they are AND-parts of WHERE/ON
thd->user_connect is now handled in thd->clenup() which will ensure that it works in all context (including slaves).

There are 2 volatile condition constructions AND/OR constructions and fields(references) when first
good supported to be top elements of conditions because it is normal practice
(see copy_andor_structure for example) fields without any expression in the condition is really rare
and mostly useless case however it could lead to problems when optimiser changes/moves them unaware
of other variables referring to them. An easy solution of this problem is just to replace single field
in a condition with equivalent expression well supported by the server (<field> -> <field> != 0).

INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statement that used a temptable view v1 could lead to

When INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE uses a view that is not updatable then field
translation for the view should be created before the prepare phase.
SYNTAX TRIGGERS IN ANY WAY
Table with triggers which were using deprecated (5.0-only) syntax became
unavailable for any DML and DDL after upgrade to 5.1 version of server.
Attempt to execute any statement on such a table resulted in parsing
error reported. Since this included DROP TRIGGER and DROP TABLE
statements (actually, the latter was allowed but was not functioning
properly for such tables) it was impossible to fix the problem without
manual operations on .TRG and .TRN files in data directory.
The problem was that failure to parse trigger body (due to 5.0-only
syntax) when opening trigger file for a table prevented the table
from being open. This made all operations on the table impossible
(except DROP TABLE which due to peculiarity in its implementation
dropped the table but left trigger files around).
This patch solves this problem by silencing error which occurs when
we parse trigger body during table open. Error message is preserved
for the future use and table is marked as having a broken trigger.
We also try to analyze parse tree to recover trigger name, which
will be needed in order to drop the broken trigger. DML statements
which invoke triggers on the table marked as having broken trigger
are prohibited and emit saved error message. The same happens for
DDL which change triggers except DROP TRIGGER and DROP TABLE which
try their best to do what was requested. Table becomes no longer
marked as having broken trigger when last such trigger is dropped.

sp_head::restore_thd_mem_root() method. Since this
method can be sometimes called twice during parsing
of stored routine (the first time during normal flow
of parsing, and the second time when a syntax error
is detected) we need to shortcut execution of the
method to avoid damaging MEM_ROOT by the second
consecutive call to this method.
sql/sql_trigger.cc:
Added error handler Deprecated_trigger_syntax_handler to
catch non-OOM errors during parsing of trigger body.
Added handling of parse errors into method
Table_triggers_list::check_n_load().
sql/sql_trigger.h:
Added new members to handle broken triggers and error messages.
SYNTAX TRIGGERS IN ANY WAY
Table with triggers which were using deprecated (5.0-only) syntax became
unavailable for any DML and DDL after upgrade to 5.1 version of server.
Attempt to execute any statement on such a table resulted in parsing
error reported. Since this included DROP TRIGGER and DROP TABLE
statements (actually, the latter was allowed but was not functioning
properly for such tables) it was impossible to fix the problem without
manual operations on .TRG and .TRN files in data directory.
The problem was that failure to parse trigger body (due to 5.0-only
syntax) when opening trigger file for a table prevented the table
from being open. This made all operations on the table impossible
(except DROP TABLE which due to peculiarity in its implementation
dropped the table but left trigger files around).
This patch solves this problem by silencing error which occurs when
we parse trigger body during table open. Error message is preserved
for the future use and table is marked as having a broken trigger.
We also try to analyze parse tree to recover trigger name, which
will be needed in order to drop the broken trigger. DML statements
which invoke triggers on the table marked as having broken trigger
are prohibited and emit saved error message. The same happens for
DDL which change triggers except DROP TRIGGER and DROP TABLE which
try their best to do what was requested. Table becomes no longer
marked as having broken trigger when last such trigger is dropped.

HA_INNOBASE::UPDATE_ROW, TEMPORARY TABLE, TABLE LOCK".
Attempt to update an InnoDB temporary table under LOCK TABLES
led to assertion failure in both debug and production builds
if this temporary table was explicitly locked for READ. The
same scenario works fine for MyISAM temporary tables.
The assertion failure was caused by discrepancy between lock
that was requested on the rows of temporary table at LOCK TABLES
time and by update operation. Since SQL-layer requested a
read-lock at LOCK TABLES time InnoDB engine assumed that upcoming
statements which are going to be executed under LOCK TABLES will
only read table and therefore should acquire only S-lock.
An update operation broken this assumption by requesting X-lock.
Possible approaches to fixing this problem are:
1) Skip locking of temporary tables as locking doesn't make any
sense for connection-local objects.
2) Prohibit changing of temporary table locked by LOCK TABLES ...
READ.
Unfortunately both of these approaches have drawbacks which make
them unviable for stable versions of server.
So this patch takes another approach and changes code in such way
that LOCK TABLES for a temporary table will always request write
lock. In 5.5 version of this patch switch from read lock to write
lock is done on SQL-layer.
mysql-test/suite/innodb/r/innodb_mysql.result:
Added test for bug #11762012 - "54553: INNODB ASSERTS IN
HA_INNOBASE::UPDATE_ROW, TEMPORARY TABLE, TABLE LOCK".

Added test for bug #11762012 - "54553: INNODB ASSERTS IN
HA_INNOBASE::UPDATE_ROW, TEMPORARY TABLE, TABLE LOCK".
sql/sql_parse.cc:
Since a temporary table locked by LOCK TABLES can be updated even
if it was only locked for read we always request TL_WRITE locks
for such tables at LOCK TABLES time. This allows to avoid
discrepancy between locks acquired at LOCK TABLES time and by
a statement executed under LOCK TABLES. Such a discrepancy has
caused problems for InnoDB storage engine.
To support this change a part of code implementing LOCK TABLES
has been moved to a helper function.

Resolved all conflicts, bad merges and fixed a few minor bugs in the code.
Commented out the queries from multi_update, view, subselect_sj, func_str,
derived_view, view_grant that failed either with crashes in ps-protocol or
with wrong results.
The failures are clear indications of some bugs in the code and these bugs
are to be fixed.
In sql_class.cc, 'row_count', of type 'ha_rows', was used as last argument for
ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD which is
"Incorrect %-.32s value: '%-.128s' for column '%.192s' at row %ld".
So 'ha_rows' was used as 'long'.
On SPARC32 Solaris builds, 'long' is 4 bytes and 'ha_rows' is 'longlong' i.e. 8 bytes.
So the printf-like code was reading only the first 4 bytes.
Because the CPU is big-endian, 1LL is 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01
so the first four bytes yield 0. So the warning message had "row 0" instead of
"row 1" in test outfile_loaddata.test:
-Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 1
+Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 0
All error-messaging functions which internally invoke some printf-life function
are potential candidate for such mistakes.
One apparently easy way to catch such mistakes is to use
ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT (from my_attribute.h).
But this works only when call site has both:
a) the format as a string literal
b) the types of arguments.
So:
func(ER(ER_BLAH), 10);
will silently not be checked, because ER(ER_BLAH) is not known at
compile time (it is known at run-time, and depends on the chosen
language).
And
func("%s", a va_list argument);
has the same problem, as the *real* type of arguments is not
known at this site at compile time (it's known in some caller).
Moreover,
func(ER(ER_BLAH));
though possibly correct (if ER(ER_BLAH) has no '%' markers), will not
compile (gcc says "error: format not a string literal and no format
arguments").
Consequences:
1) ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT is here added only to functions which in practice
take "string literal" formats: "my_error_reporter" and "print_admin_msg".
2) it cannot be added to the other functions: my_error(),
push_warning_printf(), Table_check_intact::report_error(),
general_log_print().
To do a one-time check of functions listed in (2), the following
"static code analysis" has been done:
1) replace
my_error(ER_xxx, arguments for substitution in format)
with the equivalent
my_printf_error(ER_xxx,ER(ER_xxx), arguments for substitution in
format),
so that we have ER(ER_xxx) and the arguments *in the same call site*
2) add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT to push_warning_printf(),
Table_check_intact::report_error(), general_log_print()
3) replace ER(xxx) with the hard-coded English text found in
errmsg.txt (like: ER(ER_UNKNOWN_ERROR) is replaced with
"Unknown error"), so that a call site has the format as string literal
4) this way, ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT can effectively do its job
5) compile, fix errors detected by ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT
6) revert steps 1-2-3.
The present patch has no compiler error when submitted again to the
static code analysis above.
It cannot catch all problems though: see Field::set_warning(), in
which a call to push_warning_printf() has a variable error
(thus, not replacable by a string literal); I checked set_warning() calls
by hand though.
See also WL 5883 for one proposal to avoid such bugs from appearing
again in the future.
The issues fixed in the patch are:
a) mismatch in types (like 'int' passed to '%ld')
b) more arguments passed than specified in the format.
This patch resolves mismatches by changing the type/number of arguments,
not by changing error messages of sql/share/errmsg.txt. The latter would be wrong,
per the following old rule: errmsg.txt must be as stable as possible; no insertions
or deletions of messages, no changes of type or number of printf-like format specifiers,
are allowed, as long as the change impacts a message already released in a GA version.
If this rule is not followed:
- Connectors, which use error message numbers, will be confused (by insertions/deletions
of messages)
- using errmsg.sys of MySQL 5.1.n with mysqld of MySQL 5.1.(n+1)
could produce wrong messages or crash; such usage can easily happen if
installing 5.1.(n+1) while /etc/my.cnf still has --language=/path/to/5.1.n/xxx;
or if copying mysqld from 5.1.(n+1) into a 5.1.n installation.
When fixing b), I have verified that the superfluous arguments were not used in the format
in the first 5.1 GA (5.1.30 'bteam@astra04-20081114162938-z8mctjp6st27uobm').
Had they been used, then passing them today, even if the message doesn't use them
anymore, would have been necessary, as explained above.

ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD which is
"Incorrect %-.32s value: '%-.128s' for column '%.192s' at row %ld".
So 'ha_rows' was used as 'long'.
On SPARC32 Solaris builds, 'long' is 4 bytes and 'ha_rows' is 'longlong' i.e. 8 bytes.

Because the CPU is big-endian, 1LL is 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01
so the first four bytes yield 0. So the warning message had "row 0" instead of
"row 1" in test outfile_loaddata.test:
-Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 1
+Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xE1\xE2\xF7' for column 'b' at row 0
All error-messaging functions which internally invoke some printf-life function
are potential candidate for such mistakes.
One apparently easy way to catch such mistakes is to use
ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT (from my_attribute.h).
But this works only when call site has both:
a) the format as a string literal
b) the types of arguments.
So:
func(ER(ER_BLAH), 10);
will silently not be checked, because ER(ER_BLAH) is not known at
compile time (it is known at run-time, and depends on the chosen
language).
And
func("%s", a va_list argument);
has the same problem, as the *real* type of arguments is not

Moreover,
func(ER(ER_BLAH));
though possibly correct (if ER(ER_BLAH) has no '%' markers), will not
compile (gcc says "error: format not a string literal and no format

Consequences:
1) ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT is here added only to functions which in practice
take "string literal" formats: "my_error_reporter" and "print_admin_msg".
2) it cannot be added to the other functions: my_error(),

so that we have ER(ER_xxx) and the arguments *in the same call site*
2) add ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT to push_warning_printf(),
Table_check_intact::report_error(), general_log_print()

or if copying mysqld from 5.1.(n+1) into a 5.1.n installation.
When fixing b), I have verified that the superfluous arguments were not used in the format
in the first 5.1 GA (5.1.30 'bteam@astra04-20081114162938-z8mctjp6st27uobm').
