When it comes to DEFAULT values of columns, InnoDB is imposing both unnecessary and insufficient conditions on whether ALGORITHM=INPLACE should be allowed for ALTER TABLE. When changing an existing column to NOT NULL, any NULL values in the columns only get a special treatment if the column is changed to an AUTO_INCREMENT column (which is not supported by ALGORITHM=INPLACE) or the column type is TIMESTAMP. In all other cases, an error must be reported for the failure to convert a NULL value to NOT NULL. InnoDB was unnecessarily interested in whether the DEFAULT value is not constant when altering other than TIMESTAMP columns. Also, when changing a TIMESTAMP column to NOT NULL, InnoDB was performing an insufficient check, and it was incorrectly allowing a constant DEFAULT value while not being able to replace NULL values with that constant value. Furthermore, in ADD COLUMN, InnoDB is unnecessarily rejecting certain nondeterministic DEFAULT expressions (depending on the session parameters or the current time). |

MariaDB: drop-in replacement for MySQL
MariaDB is designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariadB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation, and by many people in the community.
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
A description of the MariaDB project and a manual can be found at: http://mariadb.org/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-features/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-features/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-compatibility/
As MariaDB is a full replacement of MySQL, the MySQL manual at http://dev.mysql.com/doc is generally applicable.
