Mutli-table uses temporary table to store new values for fields. With the
new values the rowid of the record to be updated is stored in a Field_string
field. Table to be updated is set as source table of the rowid field.
But when the temporary table creates the tmp field for the rowid field it
converts it to a varstring field because the table to be updated was created by
the v4.1. Due to this the stored rowids were broken and no records for
update were found.
The flag can_alter_field_type is added to Field_string class. When it is set to
0 the field won't be converted to varstring. The Field_string::type() function
now always returns MYSQL_TYPE_STRING if can_alter_field_type is set to 0.
The multi_update::initialize_tables() function now sets can_alter_field_type
flag to 0 for the rowid fields denying conversion of the field to a varstring
field.
- Added empty constructors and virtual destructors to many classes and structs
- Removed some usage of the offsetof() macro to instead use C++ class pointers
trigger starts trigger".
In short, the deadlock/crash happened when execution of statement, which used
stored functions or activated triggers, coincided with alteration of the
tables used by these functions or triggers (in highly concurrent environment).
Bug was caused by the incorrect handling of tables from prelocked set in
open_tables() functions in situations when refresh happened. This fix replaces
old smart but not very robust way of handling tables after refresh (which was
closing only old tables), with new one which simply closes all tables opened so
far and restarts open_tables().
Also fixed handling of temporary tables in close_tables_for_reopen().
No test case present since bug manifests itself only in concurrent environment.
Problem #1: INSERT...SELECT, Version for 5.0.
Extended the unique table check by a check of lock data.
Merge sub-tables cannot be detected by doing name checks only.
Problem #1: INSERT...SELECT, Version for 4.1.
INSERT ... SELECT with the same table on both sides (hidden
below a MERGE table) does now work by buffering the select result.
The duplicate detection works now after open_and_lock_tables()
on the locks.
I did not find a test case that failed without the change in
sql_update.cc. I made the change anyway as it should in theory
fix a possible MERGE table problem with multi-table update.
depending on table order
multi_update::send_data() was counting updates, not updated rows. Thus if one
record have several updates it will be counted several times in 'rows matched'
but updated only once.
multi_update::send_data() now counts only unique rows.
Date field was declared as not null, thus expression 'datefield is null'
was always false. For SELECT special handling of such cases is used.
There 'datefield is null' converted to 'datefield eq "0000-00-00"'.
In mysql_update() before creation of select added remove_eq_conds() call.
It makes some optimization of conds and in particular performs conversion
from 'is null' to 'eq'.
Also remove_eq_conds() makes some evaluation of conds and if it founds that
conds is always false then update statement is not processed further.
All this allows to perform some update statements process faster due to
optimized conds, and not wasting resources if conds known to be false.
Not fixed in 4.1 as not critical. Also I'm correcting error checking of multi-UPDATE/DELETE
when it comes to binlogging, to make it consistent with when we rollback the statement.
This bug occurs when some trigger for table used by DML statement is created
or changed while statement was waiting in lock_tables(). In this situation
prelocking set which we have calculated becames invalid which can easily lead
to errors and even in some cases to crashes.
With proposed patch we no longer silently reopen tables in lock_tables(),
instead caller of lock_tables() becomes responsible for reopening tables and
recalculation of prelocking set.
Information_schema DB
Bug#9846 Inappropriate error displayed while
dropping table from 'INFORMATION_SCHEMA'
Bug#10734 Grant of privileges other than 'select' and
'create view' should fail on schema
Bug#10708 SP's can use INFORMATION_SCHEMA as ROUTINE_SCHEMA
cumulative fix for bugs above(after review, 2nd version)
added privilege check for information schema db & tables
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
