between 5.0 and 5.1.
The problem was that in the patch for Bug#11986 it was decided
to store original query in UTF8 encoding for the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
This approach however turned out to be quite difficult to implement
properly. The main problem is to preserve the same IS-output after
dump/restore.
So, the fix is to rollback to the previous functionality, but also
to fix it to support multi-character-set-queries properly. The idea
is to generate INFORMATION_SCHEMA-query from the item-tree after
parsing view declaration. The IS-query should:
- be completely in UTF8;
- not contain character set introducers.
For more information, see WL4052.
SHOW FIELDS FROM a view with no valid definer was possible (since fix
for Bug#26817), but gave NULL as a field-type. This led to mysqldump-ing
of such views being successful, but loading such a dump with the client
failing. Patch allows SHOW FIELDS to give data-type of field in underlying
table.
- BUG#11986: Stored routines and triggers can fail if the code
has a non-ascii symbol
- BUG#16291: mysqldump corrupts string-constants with non-ascii-chars
- BUG#19443: INFORMATION_SCHEMA does not support charsets properly
- BUG#21249: Character set of SP-var can be ignored
- BUG#25212: Character set of string constant is ignored (stored routines)
- BUG#25221: Character set of string constant is ignored (triggers)
There were a few general problems that caused these bugs:
1. Character set information of the original (definition) query for views,
triggers, stored routines and events was lost.
2. mysqldump output query in client character set, which can be
inappropriate to encode definition-query.
3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA used strings with mixed encodings to display object
definition;
1. No query-definition-character set.
In order to compile query into execution code, some extra data (such as
environment variables or the database character set) is used. The problem
here was that this context was not preserved. So, on the next load it can
differ from the original one, thus the result will be different.
The context contains the following data:
- client character set;
- connection collation (character set and collation);
- collation of the owner database;
The fix is to store this context and use it each time we parse (compile)
and execute the object (stored routine, trigger, ...).
2. Wrong mysqldump-output.
The original query can contain several encodings (by means of character set
introducers). The problem here was that we tried to convert original query
to the mysqldump-client character set.
Moreover, we stored queries in different character sets for different
objects (views, for one, used UTF8, triggers used original character set).
The solution is
- to store definition queries in the original character set;
- to change SHOW CREATE statement to output definition query in the
binary character set (i.e. without any conversion);
- introduce SHOW CREATE TRIGGER statement;
- to dump special statements to switch the context to the original one
before dumping and restore it afterwards.
Note, in order to preserve the database collation at the creation time,
additional ALTER DATABASE might be used (to temporary switch the database
collation back to the original value). In this case, ALTER DATABASE
privilege will be required. This is a backward-incompatible change.
3. INFORMATION_SCHEMA showed non-UTF8 strings
The fix is to generate UTF8-query during the parsing, store it in the object
and show it in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
Basically, the idea is to create a copy of the original query convert it to
UTF8. Character set introducers are removed and all text literals are
converted to UTF8.
This UTF8 query is intended to provide user-readable output. It must not be
used to recreate the object. Specialized SHOW CREATE statements should be
used for this.
The reason for this limitation is the following: the original query can
contain symbols from several character sets (by means of character set
introducers).
Example:
- original query:
CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT _cp1251 'Hello' AS c1;
- UTF8 query (for INFORMATION_SCHEMA):
CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT 'Hello' AS c1;

Bug 21825 (Incorrect message error deleting records in a table with a

Bug 22580 (DROP TABLE in nested stored procedure causes strange dependency

Bug 25345 (Cursors from Functions)
This fix resolves a long standing issue originally reported with bug 8407,
which affect the behavior of Stored Procedures, Stored Functions and Trigger
in many different ways, causing symptoms reported by all the bugs listed.
In all cases, the root cause of the problem traces back to 8407 and how the
server locks tables involved with sub statements.
Prior to this fix, the implementation of stored routines would:
- compute the transitive closure of all the tables referenced by a top level
statement
- open and lock all the tables involved
- execute the top level statement
"transitive closure of tables" means collecting:
- all the tables,
- all the stored functions,
- all the views,
- all the table triggers
- all the stored procedures
involved, and recursively inspect these objects definition to find more
references to more objects, until the list of every object referenced does
not grow any more.
This mechanism is known as "pre-locking" tables before execution.
The motivation for locking all the tables (possibly) used at once is to
prevent dead locks.
One problem with this approach is that, if the execution path the code
really takes during runtime does not use a given table, and if the table is
missing, the server would not execute the statement.
This in particular has a major impact on triggers, since a missing table
referenced by an update/delete trigger would prevent an insert trigger to run.
Another problem is that stored routines might define SQL exception handlers
to deal with missing tables, but the server implementation would never give
user code a chance to execute this logic, since the routine is never
executed when a missing table cause the pre-locking code to fail.
With this fix, the internal implementation of the pre-locking code has been
relaxed of some constraints, so that failure to open a table does not
necessarily prevent execution of a stored routine.
In particular, the pre-locking mechanism is now behaving as follows:
1) the first step, to compute the transitive closure of all the tables
possibly referenced by a statement, is unchanged.
2) the next step, which is to open all the tables involved, only attempts
to open the tables added by the pre-locking code, but silently fails without
reporting any error or invoking any exception handler is the table is not
present. This is achieved by trapping internal errors with
Prelock_error_handler
3) the locking step only locks tables that were successfully opened.
4) when executing sub statements, the list of tables used by each statements
is evaluated as before. The tables needed by the sub statement are expected
to be already opened and locked. Statement referencing tables that were not
opened in step 2) will fail to find the table in the open list, and only at
this point will execution of the user code fail.
5) when a runtime exception is raised at 4), the instruction continuation
destination (the next instruction to execute in case of SQL continue
handlers) is evaluated.
This is achieved with sp_instr::exec_open_and_lock_tables()
6) if a user exception handler is present in the stored routine, that
handler is invoked as usual, so that ER_NO_SUCH_TABLE exceptions can be
trapped by stored routines. If no handler exists, then the runtime execution
will fail as expected.
With all these changes, a side effect is that view security is impacted, in
two different ways.
First, a view defined as "select stored_function()", where the stored
function references a table that may not exist, is considered valid.
The rationale is that, because the stored function might trap exceptions
during execution and still return a valid result, there is no way to decide
when the view is created if a missing table really cause the view to be invalid.
Secondly, testing for existence of tables is now done later during
execution. View security, which consist of trapping errors and return a
generic ER_VIEW_INVALID (to prevent disclosing information) was only
implemented at very specific phases covering *opening* tables, but not
covering the runtime execution. Because of this existing limitation,
errors that were previously trapped and converted into ER_VIEW_INVALID are
not trapped, causing table names to be reported to the user.
This change is exposing an existing problem, which is independent and will
be resolved separately.

Bug#24795: SHOW PROFILE
Profiling is only partially functional on some architectures. Where
there is no getrusage() system call, presently Null values are
returned where it would be required. Notably, Windows needs some love
applied to make it as useful.
Syntax this adds:
SHOW PROFILES
SHOW PROFILE [types] [FOR QUERY n] [OFFSET n] [LIMIT n]
where "n" is an integer
and "types" is zero or many (comma-separated) of
"CPU"
"MEMORY" (not presently supported)
"BLOCK IO"
"CONTEXT SWITCHES"
"PAGE FAULTS"
"IPC"
"SWAPS"
"SOURCE"
"ALL"
It also adds a session variable (boolean) "profiling", set to "no"
by default, and (integer) profiling_history_size, set to 15 by
default.
This patch abstracts setting THDs' "proc_info" behind a macro that
can be used as a hook into the profiling code when profiling
support is compiled in. All future code in this line should use
that mechanism for setting thd->proc_info.
---
Tests are now set to omit the statistics.
---
Adds an Information_schema table, "profiling" for access to
"show profile" data.

into zippy.cornsilk.net:/home/cmiller/work/mysql/mysql-5.0-community
---
Fix merge problems.
---
Fixed one bug in the query_source being NULL.
Updated test results.
---
Include more thorough profiling tests.
Improve support for prepared statements.
Use session-specific query IDs, starting at zero.
---
Selecting from I_S.profiling is no longer quashed in profiling, as
requested by Giuseppe.
Limit the size of captured query text.
No longer log queries that are zero length.
The fix is: if user has privileges to view fields and user has any
(insert,select,delete,update) privileges on underlying view
then 'show fields' and select from I_S.COLUMNS table are sucsessful.
Bug#18282 "INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES provides inconsistent info about invalid views"
This bug caused crashes or resulted in wrong data being returned
when one tried to obtain information from I_S tables about views
using stored functions.
It was caused by the fact that we were using LEX representing
statement which were doing select from I_S tables as active LEX
when contents of I_S table were built. So state of this LEX both
affected and was affected by open_tables() calls which happened
during this process. This resulted in wrong behavior and in
violations of some of invariants which caused crashes.
This fix tries to solve this problem by properly saving/resetting
and restoring part of LEX which affects and is affected by the
process of opening tables and views in get_all_tables() routine.
To simplify things we separated this part of LEX in a new class
and made LEX its descendant.
Crash happened when one selected data from one of INFORMATION_SCHEMA
tables and in order to build its contents server had to open view which
used stored function and table or view on which one had not global or
database-level privileges (e.g. had only table-level or had no
privileges at all).
The crash was caused by usage of check_grant() function, which assumes
that either number of tables to be inspected by it is limited explicitly
or table list used and thd->lex->query_tables_own_last value correspond
to each other (the latter should be either 0 or point to next_global
member of one of elements of this table list), in conditions when
above assumptions were not true. This fix just explicitly limits
number of tables to be inspected. Other negative effects which are
caused by the fact that thd->lex->query_tables_own_last might not
be set properly during processing of I_S tables are less disastrous
and will be reported and fixed separetely.
post-review change - use pointer instead of copy on the stack.
WL#1034 (Internal CRON)
This patch adds INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS table with the following format:
EVENT_CATALOG - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (Always NULL)
EVENT_SCHEMA - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the database)
EVENT_NAME - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the name)
DEFINER - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (user@host)
EVENT_BODY - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the body from mysql.event)
EVENT_TYPE - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING ("ONE TIME" | "RECURRING")
EXECUTE_AT - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (set for "ONE TIME" otherwise NULL)
INTERVAL_VALUE - MYSQL_TYPE_LONG (set for RECURRING otherwise NULL)
INTERVAL_FIELD - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (set for RECURRING otherwise NULL)
SQL_MODE - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (for now NULL)
STARTS - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (starts from mysql.event)
ENDS - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (ends from mysql.event)
STATUS - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (ENABLED | DISABLED)
ON_COMPLETION - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (NOT PRESERVE | PRESERVE)
CREATED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
LAST_ALTERED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
LAST_EXECUTED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
EVENT_COMMENT - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING
SQL_MODE is NULL for now, because the value is still not stored in mysql.event .
Support will be added as a fix for another bug.
This patch also adds SHOW [FULL] EVENTS [FROM db] [LIKE pattern]
1. SHOW EVENTS shows always only the events on the same user,
because the PK of mysql.event is (definer, db, name) several
users may have event with the same name -> no information disclosure.
2. SHOW FULL EVENTS - shows the events (in the current db as SHOW EVENTS)
of all users. The user has to have PROCESS privilege, if not then
SHOW FULL EVENTS behave like SHOW EVENTS.
3. If [FROM db] is specified then this db is considered.
4. Event names can be filtered with LIKE pattern.
SHOW EVENTS returns table with the following columns, which are subset of
the data which is returned by SELECT * FROM I_S.EVENTS
Db
Name
Definer
Type
Execute at
Interval value
Interval field
Starts
Ends
Status
1) Fixes breakage in embedded server build for XMLPath push.
2) Hides PARTITION engine from view.
3) Add ENGINES information schema (and it should now be clear from this patch on how to turn any show command into an information schema).
