Bug#23800: Outer fields in correlated subqueries is used in a temporary table
created for sorting. Any outer reference in a subquery was represented by an Item_field object. If the outer select employs a temporary table all such fields should be replaced with fields from that temporary table in order to point to the actual data. This replacement wasn't done and that resulted in a wrong subquery evaluation and a wrong result of the whole query. Now any outer field is represented by two objects - Item_field placed in the outer select and Item_outer_ref in the subquery. Item_field object is processed as a normal field and the reference to it is saved in the ref_pointer_array. Thus the Item_outer_ref is always references the correct field. The original field is substituted for a reference in the Item_field::fix_outer_field() function. New function called fix_inner_refs() is added to fix fields referenced from inner selects and to fix references (Item_ref objects) to these fields. The new Item_outer_ref class is a descendant of the Item_direct_ref class. It additionally stores a reference to the original field and designed to behave more like a field. sql/item.cc: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Now all outer fields are substituted with references to them (Item_outer_ref objects) in the Item_field::fix_outer_field() function. The original field is saved in the Item_outer_ref object. sql/item.h: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Added the Item_outer_ref class. sql/mysql_priv.h: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Added the fix_inner_refs() function prototype. sql/sql_delete.cc: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Added call to the fix_inner_refs() function. sql/sql_select.cc: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. The new function called fix_inner_refs() is added. mysql-test/r/subselect.result: Added a test case for bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. sql/sql_update.cc: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Added call to the fix_inner_refs() function. mysql-test/r/subselect3.result: Corrected test cases result after fix for bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. mysql-test/t/subselect.test: Added a test case for bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. sql/sql_lex.cc: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. Added cleanup of the inner_refs_list. sql/sql_lex.h: Bug#23800: Correlated sub query returning incorrect results when operated upon. The inner_refs_list is added to the SELECT_LEX class.
