  • Revision #4095 [merge] Sat 2014-02-22 22:51:20 +0100
    • 5.3 merge
    • Revision #2502.567.209 Thu 2014-02-20 21:27:33 -0800
      • After constant row substitution the optimizer should call the method update_used_tables for the the where condition to update cached indicators of constant subexpressions. It should be done before further possible simplification of the where condition.
    • Revision #2502.567.208 Wed 2014-02-19 18:34:12 +0400
      • Backport the following from 5.5 to 5.3: MDEV-4556 Server crashes in SEL_ARG::rb_insert with index_merge+index_merge_sort_union, FORCE INDEX - merge_same_index_scans() may put the same SEL_ARG tree in multiple result plans. make it call incr_refs() on the SEL_ARG trees that it does key_or() on, because key_or(sel_arg_tree_1, sel_arg_tree_2) call may invalidate SEL_ARG trees pointed by sel_arg_tree_1 and sel_arg_tree_2.
    • Revision #2502.567.207 Wed 2014-02-19 17:52:47 +0400
      • Fix compile failure:
    • Revision #2502.567.206 Wed 2014-02-19 17:47:02 +0400

    • Revision #2502.567.205 Wed 2014-02-19 17:45:33 +0400
      • MDEV-5600: Wrong result on 2nd execution of PS depending on the length of the query - Item_direct_view_ref didn't clear its pointer to item_equal in ::cleanup. - Some Item_direct_view_ref objects have statement lifetime (i.e. they survive across multiple EXECUTE commands). Item_equal objects live only for the duration of one EXECUTE. This caused Item_direct_view_ref to have a stale pointer, which could cause all sorts of effects. (In this bug's testcase it was pointing to the wrong Item_equal, causing wrong query result) - Fixed by doing what Item_field::cleanup() does - don't keep item_equal pointer value. - There is no testcase because the only testcase I've got is highly fragile (e.g. the bug will not show up if @@datadir is of the wrong length).
    • Revision #2502.567.204 Tue 2014-02-18 17:45:08 +0400
      • MDEV-5481 mysqldump fails to dump geometry types properly.
    • Revision #2502.567.203 Tue 2014-02-18 17:15:25 +0400
      • MDEV-5615 crash in Gcalc_function::add_operation.
    • Revision #2502.567.202 [merge] Sat 2014-02-15 01:26:53 +0400
      • Merge
      • Revision #2502.585.1 Sat 2014-02-15 01:21:46 +0400
        • MDEV-5581: Server crashes in in JOIN::prepare on 2nd execution of PS with materialization+semijoin - The problem was that JOIN::prepare() tried to set TABLE::maybe_null for a table in join. Non-merged semi-join tables 1) are present as join's base tables on second EXECUTE, but 2) do not yet have a TABLE object. Worked around the problem by putting mixed_implicit_grouping into JOIN object, and then passing it to JTBM tables in setup_jtbm_semi_joins().
