bug#44766: valgrind error when using convert() in a subquery
Problem: input and output buffers may be the same
converting a string to some charset.
That may lead to wrong results/valgrind warnings.
Fix: use different buffers.
Details:
Most tests mentioned within the bug report were already fixed.
The test modified here failed in stability (high parallel load) tests.
Details:
1. Take care that disconnects are finished before the test terminates.
2. Correct wrong handling of send/reap in events_stress which caused
random garbled output
3. Minor beautifying of script code
and HAVING
When calculating GROUP BY the server caches some expressions. It does
that by allocating a string slot (Item_copy_string) and assigning the
value of the expression to it. This effectively means that the result
type of the expression can be changed from whatever it was to a string.
As this substitution takes place after the compile-time result type
calculation for IN but before the run-time type calculations,
it causes the type calculations in the IN function done at run time
to get unexpected results different from what was prepared at compile time.
In the CASE ... WHEN ... THEN ... statement there was a similar problem
and it was solved by artificially adding a STRING argument to the matrix
at compile time, so if any of the arguments of the CASE function changes
its type to a string it will still be covered by the information prepared
at compile time.
Extended the CASE fix for cover the IN case.
An alternative way of fixing this problem is by caching the result type of
the arguments at compile time and using the cached information at run time
instead of re-calculating the result types.
Preferred the CASE approach for uniformity and fix localization.
BUG#42101 - Race condition in innodb_commit_concurrency
Detailed revision comments:

branches/5.1: Prevent a race condition in innobase_commit() by ensuring
that innodb_commit_concurrency>0 remains constant at run time. (Bug #42101)
srv_commit_concurrency: Make this a static variable in ha_innodb.cc.
innobase_commit_concurrency_validate(): Check that innodb_commit_concurrency
is not changed from or to 0 at run time. This is needed, because
innobase_commit() assumes that innodb_commit_concurrency>0 remains constant.
Without this limitation, the checks for innodb_commit_concurrency>0
in innobase_commit() should be removed and that function would have to
acquire and release commit_cond_m at least twice per invocation.
Normally, innodb_commit_concurrency=0, and introducing the mutex operations
would mean significant overhead.

Internal InnoDN FK parser does not recognize '\'' as quotation symbol.
Suggested fix is to add '\'' symbol check for quotation condition
(dict_strip_comments() function).
Problem: executing queries like "ALTER TABLE view1;" we don't
check new view's name (which is not specified),
that leads to server crash.
Fix: do nothing (to be consistent with the behaviour for tables)
in such cases.
with a "HAVING" clause though query works
SELECT from views defined like:
CREATE VIEW v1 (view_column)
AS SELECT c AS alias FROM t1 HAVING alias
fails with an error 1356:
View '...' references invalid table(s) or column(s)
or function(s) or definer/invoker of view lack rights
to use them
CREATE VIEW form with a (column list) substitutes
SELECT column names/aliases with names from a
view column list.
However, alias references in HAVING clause was
not substituted.
The Item_ref::print function has been modified
to write correct aliased names of underlying
items into VIEW definition generation/.frm file.
Disabling these two tests as they are affected by this bug / causing PB2 failures
on Windows platforms. Can always disable via include/not_windows.inc if
the bug fix looks like it will take some time.
The RAND(N) function where the N is a field of "constant" table
(table of single row) failed with a SIGFPE.
Evaluation of RAND(N) rely on constant status of its argument.
Current server "seeded" random value for each constant argument
only once, in the Item_func_rand::fix_fields method.
Then the server skipped a call to seed_random() in the
Item_func_rand::val_real method for such constant arguments.
However, non-constant state of an argument may be changed
after the call to fix_fields, if an argument is a field of
"constant" table. Thus, pre-initialization of random value
in the fix_fields method is too early.
Initialization of random value by seed_random() has been
removed from Item_func_rand::fix_fields method.
The Item_func_rand::val_real method has been modified to
call seed_random() on the first evaluation of this method
if an argument is a function.
In order to better support the usage of
IBMDB2I tables from within RPG programs,
the storage engine should ensure that the
RCDFMT name is consistent and predictable
for DB2 tables.
This patch appends a "RCDFMT <name>"
clause to the CREATE TABLE statement
that is passed to DB2. <name> is
generated from the original name of
the table itself. This ensures a
consistent and deterministic mapping
from the original table.
For the sake of simplicity only
the alpha-numeric characters are
preserved when generating the new
name, and these are upper-cased;
other characters are replaced with
an underscore (_). Following DB2
system identifier rules, the name
always begins with an alpha-character
and has a maximum of ten characters.
If no usable characters are found in
the table name, the name X is used.
It turns out that this test case no longer fails with the discrepancy
in numbers that was the original cause for disabling this test (and showed
potential genuine issues with the query cache). Therefore
this test is being enabled after some minor adjustment of error codes and
messages.
Details:
1. Add missing "disconnect <session>"
2. Take care that the disconnects are finished when the test terminates
3. Replace error names by error numbers
4. Minor beautifying of script code
Field_time::get_time() did not initialize some members of
MYSQL_TIME which led to valgrind warnings when those members
were accessed in Protocol_simple::store_time().
It is unlikely that this bug could result in wrong data
being returned, since Field_time::get_time() initializes the
'day' member of MYSQL_TIME to 0, so the value of 'day'
in Protocol_simple::store_time() would be 0 regardless
of the values for 'year' and 'month'.
In UNION if we use last SELECT without braces and this
SELECT have ORDER BY clause, such clause belongs to
global UNION. It is parsed like last SELECT
part and used further as 'unit->global_parameters->order_list' value.
During DESCRIBE EXTENDED we call select_lex->print_order() for
last SELECT where order fields refer to tmp table
which already freed. It leads to crash.
The fix is clean up global_parameters->order_list
instead of fake_select_lex->order_list.
It is not possible to prevent the server from starting if a mandatory
built-in plugin fails to start. This can in some cases lead to data
corruption when the old table name space suddenly is used by a different
storage engine.
A boolean command line option in the form of --foobar is automatically
created for every existing plugin "foobar". By changing this command line
option from a boolean to a tristate { OFF, ON, FORCE } it is possible to
specify the plugin loading policy for each plugin.
The behavior is specified as follows:
OFF = Disable the plugin and start the server
ON = Enable the plugin and start the server even if an error occurrs
during plugin initialization.
FORCE = Enable the plugin but don't start the server if an error occurrs
during plugin initialization.
UNIX sockets need to be on a path shorter than 70 characters on some older platofrms.
MTRv1 tries to fix this by moving the socket to the $TMPDIR, however this causes
issues with certain tests on Windows.
Fixed by not applying any hacks on Windows - Windows does not need them.
SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select
The crash was caused by an incomplete cleanup of JOIN_TAB::select
during the filesort of rows for GROUP BY clause inside a subquery.
Queries where a quick index access is replaced with filesort was
was affected. For example:
SELECT 1 FROM
(SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT c1) FROM t1
WHERE c2 IN (1, 1) AND c3 = 2 GROUP BY c2) x
Quick index access related data in the SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select
function was inconsistent after an incomplete cleanup.
This function has been completed to prevent crashes in the
SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select function.
"freeing items"
The calculation of the table map log event in the event constructor
was one byte shorter than what would be actually written. This would
lead to a mismatch between the number of bytes written and the event
end_log_pos, causing bad event alignment in the binlog (corrupted
binlog) or in the transaction cache while fixing positions
(MYSQL_BIN_LOG::write_cache). This could lead to impossible to read
binlog or even infinite loops in MYSQL_BIN_LOG::write_cache.
This patch addresses this issue by correcting the expected event
length in the Table_map_log_event constructor, when the field metadata
size exceeds 255.
Problem: using LOAD_FILE() in some cases we pass a file name string
without a trailing '\0' to fn_format() which relies on that however.
That may lead to valgrind warnings.
Fix: add a trailing '\0' to the file name passed to fn_format().
