    • Revision #2502.567.186 Fri 2014-01-24 16:50:39 +0400
      • MDEV-5504 Server crashes in String::length on SELECT with MONTHNAME, GROUP BY, ROLLUP
    • Revision #2502.567.185 Thu 2014-01-23 21:26:04 +0400
      • MDEV-5368: Server crashes in Item_in_subselect::optimize on ...
      • convert_subq_to_sj() must connect child select's tables into parent select's TABLE_LIST::next_local chain.
      • The problem was that it took child's leaf_tables.head() which is different. This could cause certain tables (in this bug's case, child select's non-merged semi-join) not to be present in TABLE_LIST::next_local chain. Which would cause non-merged semi-join not to be initialized in setup_tables(), which would lead to NULL pointer dereference.

      • Revision #2502.565.63 Thu 2014-01-23 11:11:01 +0200
        • MDEV-5356: Server crashes in Item_equal::contains on 2nd execution of a PS THD::thd->activate_stmt_arena_if_needed() should be used to temporary activating statement arena instead of direct usage of THD::set_n_backup_active_arena() because possible such scenario:
          1. func1 saves current arena and activates copy1 of statement arena
          2. func2 saves copy1 of statement arena setup by func1 and activates copy2
          3. some changes made for copy 2
          4. func2 stores changed copy2 back to statenet arena and activates copy1
          5. func1 store unchanged copy1 back to statemnt arena (rewrite changed copy 2 so changes become lost) and activates arena which was before.

      • in test_if_skip_sort_order(), correct the condition under which we have the code that restores the previously pushed index condition.
  • Revision #4031 Fri 2014-01-24 19:44:13 +0200
    • Fixed Mageia Bug 12355: mariadb produces warning messages while loading timezone information

    • Added long option handling
    • Added --help, --verbose and --version options
  • Revision #4030 Fri 2014-01-24 14:50:18 +0200
    • Fix for MDEV-5531: double call procedure in one session
    • hard shutdown the server Main fix was to not cache derivied tables as they may be temporary tables that are deleted before the next query. This was a bit tricky as Item_field::fix_fields depended on cached_tables to be set to resolve some columns.
  • Revision #4029 Fri 2014-01-24 14:30:19 +0200
    • Fixed failures in tokudb test cases
  • Revision #4028 Fri 2014-01-24 06:07:22 +0400
    • MDEV-5419 no audit events for warnings converted to errors in the strict mode. small fix in the --replace_regex template.
  • Revision #4027 Thu 2014-01-23 22:21:02 +0400
    • MDEV-5419 no audit events for warnings converted to errors in the strict mode. Plugins get error notifications only when my_message_sql() is called. But errors are launched with THD::raise_condition() calls in other places. These are push_warning(), implementations of SIGNAL and RESIGNAL commands. So it makes sence to notify plugins there in THD::raise_condition().

    • When a JOIN has both "optimization tabs" (JOIN_TABs used to read the base tables and do the join operation) and also has "execution tabs" (a JOIN_TAB that is to produce result set that is sent to the client), do not forget to call JOIN_TAB::cleanup() for the execution JOIN_TAB.

        • Another attempt to fix bug MDEV-5103. The earlier pushed fix for the bug was incomplete. It did not remove the main cause of the problem: the function remove_eq_conds() removed always true multiple equalities from any conjunct, but did not adjust the list of them stored in Item_cond_and::cond_equal.current_level.

    • Revision #3963.1.2 Thu 2013-11-21 11:19:01 +0400
      • MDEV-5161: Wrong result (missing rows) with semijoin, LEFT JOIN, ORDER BY, constant table
      • Don't pull out a table out of a semi-join if it is on the inner side of an outer join.
      • Make join->sort_by_table= get_sort_by_table(...) call after const table detection is done. That way, the value of join->sort_by_table will match the actual execution. Which will allow the code in setup_semijoin_dups_elimination() (search for "Make sure that possible sorting of rows from the head table is not to be employed." to see that "Using filesort" is going to be used together with Duplicate Elimination ( and change it to Using temporary + Using filesort)

      • MDEV-5293: outer join, join buffering, and order by
      • invalid query plan
      • make_join_readinfo() has the code that forces use of "Using temporary; Using filesort" when join buffering is in use. That code didn't handle all cases, in particular it didn't hande the case where ORDER BY originally has tables from multiple columns, but the optimizer eventually figures out that doing filesort() on one table will be sufficient. Adjusted the code to handle that case.
