New way to fix BUG#19243 "wrong LAST_INSERT_ID() after ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE".
This bug report was two problems: 1) LAST_INSERT_ID() returns a value which does not exist in the table 2) the reporter would want it to return the autoinc id of the updated row. 1) is a real bug, 2) is a feature request. In July I implemented 2) in 5.1 (which automatically fixes 1). This has not yet been documented or released, so is changeable. Precisely, recently Paul and a user found an easy workaround to give 2), which works in 4.1-5.0-5.1. So I can revert my code for 2), because it's not needed, that's what I do here; we forget about 2) (we will document the workaround). But when I revert my code for 2), 1) comes back. We solve 1) by saying that if INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE updates a row, it's like a regular UPDATE: LAST_INSERT_ID() should not be affected (instead of returning a non-existent value). So note: no behaviour change compared to the last released 5.1; just a bugfix for 1). mysql-test/r/innodb_mysql.result: result update mysql-test/t/innodb_mysql.test: test for the new way to fix BUG#19243: that if INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE updates a row, SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() is not affected. Test of the workaround for people who want SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() to return the autoinc id of the updated row. sql/sql_insert.cc: No need to change LAST_INSERT_ID() if INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE updates a row, there is a workaround to achieve this without changing code: just add "autoinc_col=LAST_INSERT_ID(autoinc_col)" to your ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE clause. Prevent LAST_INSERT_ID() to contain an inexistent value in this case: if the row is updated it should be like a regular UPDATE: don't affect LAST_INSERT_ID() (achieved by marking that we didn't generate an id for this row: insert_id_for_cur_row=0).
