SHOW ENGINE INNOD

Problem:

The purpose of explain_filename() is to provide useful additional
information regarding the partitions given the filename.  This function
was returning an error when it was not able to parse the given filename.
For example, within InnoDB, temporary files are created with #sql-
prefix.  But this function was not able to parse it correctly.

Solution:

It is not an error, if explain_filename() could not parse the given
filename.  If there is no partition information to explain, then silently
return from the function.

The range optimizer uses 'save_in_field_no_warnings()' to verify properties of
'value <cmp> field' expressions.
If this execution yields an error, it should abort.

              RETURNS RANDOM DATA
                 
MySQL 5.5 specific version of bugfix.
      
When Loose Index Scan Range access is used, MySQL execution needs
to copy non-aggregated fields. end_send() checked if this was
necessary by checking if join_tab->select->quick had type
QS_TYPE_GROUP_MIN_MAX.
      
In this bug, however, MySQL created a sort index to sort the rows
read from this range access method. create_sort_index() deletes
join_tab->select->quick which makes it impossible to inquire
the join_tab if LIS has been used.
      
The fix for MySQL 5.5 is to introduce a variable in JOIN_TAB
that stores whether or not LIS has been used. There is no need
for this variable in later MySQL versions because the relevant
code has been refactored.

Post push fix:
setup_ref_array() now uses n_sum_items to determine size of ref_pointer_array.
The problem was that n_sum_items kept growing, it wasn't reset for each query.

A similar memory leak was fixed with the patch for:
Bug 14683676 ENDLESS MEMORY CONSUMPTION IN SETUP_REF_ARRAY WITH MAX IN SUBQUERY

UPDATES

After checking that the table has changed too much in
row_update_statistics_if_needed() and calling dict_update_statistics(),
also check if the same condition holds after acquiring the table stats
latch. This is to avoid multiple threads concurrently entering and
executing the stats update code.

Problem:
=======
Found using AddressSanitizer testing.

The mysqlbinlog utility may result in out-of-bound heap
buffer reads and thus, undefined behaviour, when processing
RBR events in the old (pre-5.1 GA) format.

The following code in process_event() would only be correct
if Rows_log_event was the base class for
Write,Update,Delete_rows_log_event_old classes:

    case PRE_GA_WRITE_ROWS_EVENT:
    case PRE_GA_DELETE_ROWS_EVENT:
    case PRE_GA_UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT:
...
        Rows_log_event *e= (Rows_log_event*) ev;
        Table_map_log_event *ignored_map=
          print_event_info->m_table_map_ignored.get_table(e->get_table_id());
...
        if (e->get_flags(Rows_log_event::STMT_END_F))
        {
...
        }

However, Rows_log_event is only the base class for the
Write,Update_Delete_rows_event family of classes, but not
for their *_old counterparts. So the above typecasts are
incorrect for the old-format RBR events and may result (and
do result according to AddressSanitizer reports) in reading
memory outside of the previously allocated on heap buffer.

Fix:
===
The above mentioned invalid type cast has been replaced with
appropriate old counterpart.

Note:The above mentioned issue is present only mysql-5.1 and
5.5. This is fixed in mysql-5.6 and above as part of 
Bug#55790. Hence few of the relevant changes of Bug#55790 are
being back ported to fix the current issue.

	
	Backport the changes for bug#14786792 which is regression 
	of fix for bug#11761854.So backported both changes.

  INTERACTIVE MODE

In interactive mode, libedit/readline allocates memory
for every new line entered & later the allocated memory
never gets freed.

Fixed by freeing the allocated memory blocks appropriately.

Null merge from mysql-5.1

Back porting fix from mysql-5.5

We need to take 'n_sum_items' into the calculation
when allocating the ref_ptr_array.

Item_func_group_concat::copy_or_same() creates a copy of original object.
It also creates a copy of ORDER structure because ORDER struct elements may
be modified in find_order_in_list() called from Item_func_group_concat::setup().
As ORDER copy is created using memcpy, ORDER::next elements point to original
ORDER structs. Thus find_order_in_list() called from EXECUTE stmt modifies
ordinal ORDER item pointers so they point to runtime items, these items are
freed after execution, so original ORDER structure becomes invalid.
The fix is to properly update ORDER::next fields so that they point to
new ORDER elements.

Post-push fix.
String::operator=() in client/sql_string.h also

             FREED LOCK

ANALYIS
-------

In 5.5 code the lock_rec_block_validate() is called after releasing
the kernel mutex. There is a chance that the lock might be invalid so,
we are getting the valgrind error on invalid read on lock->index.

FIX
---

Fix would be to copy the lock->index when we are holding the kernel mutex 
and then pass it to the lock_rec_block_validate(). This implementation
is present in 5.1 code.

COLUMNS ARE USED INSIDE A STORED PROCEDURE                                      
                                                                                
Problem: When 'SET' type columns are used in a DML                              
inside a stored procedure and a NULL value is passed                            
to that column, replication is breaking.                                        
                                                                                
Analysis: All stored procedure variables used inside                            
a DML will be substituted with NAME_CONST functions.                            
While NAME_CONST are used in this particular scenario,                          
i.e., when NULL value is passed then charset is copied                          
from 'empty_set_string' member of Field_set class.                              
The operator '=' overload method inside 'String' class                          
is not coping str_charset from R.H.S object to L.H.S object.                    
Hence charset is wrongly copied in the string assignment                        
                                                                                
Fix: Handle coping str_charset member in operator '=' overload                  
method.

Problem: The operator '=' overload method inside
'String' class is not coping str_charset member from
R.H.S object to L.H.S object. Hence charset is wrongly
set while using string assignments

Analaysis: The above mentioned problem is
identified while doing the analaysis of bug#14593883.
Though the test scenario mentioned in the bug page
is not  an issue in mysql-5.1 code, the actual root cause
ie., "str_charset member is not copied" exists in the 
mysql-5.1 code base. 

Fix: Handle coping str_charset member in operator '=' overload                  
method.

IBUF, FREE SPACE MANAGEMENT

ibuf_merge_or_delete_for_page(): Declare the user index page latched
for UNIV_SYNC_DEBUG after opening the change buffer cursor. This
should avoid the bogus latching order violation.

ibuf_delete_rec(): Add assertions to the callers, checking that the
mini-transaction was committed when the function returned TRUE. This
is a non-functional change, just clarifying the code.

For a fresh insert, page_zip_available() was counting some fields twice.
In the worst case, the compressed page size grows by PAGE_ZIP_DIR_SLOT_SIZE
plus the size of the record that is being inserted. The size of the record
already includes the fields that will be stored in the uncompressed portion
of the compressed page.

page_zip_get_trailer_len(): Remove the output parameter entry_size,
because no caller is interested in it.

page_zip_max_ins_size(), page_zip_available(): Assume that the page grows
by PAGE_ZIP_DIR_SLOT_SIZE and the record size (which includes the fields
that would be stored in the uncompressed portion of the page).

PROBLEM
-------

If we give start mysqld with the option --innodb_log_buffer_size=50GB
,then  mem_area_alloc() function fails to allocate memory and returns
NULL.In debug version we assert at this point,but there is no check in
release version and we get a segmentation fault.

FIX
---
Added a log message saying that we are unable to allocate memory.
After this message we assert.
