Table corruption happens during table reading in ha_tina::find_current_row() func.
Field::store() method returns error(true) if stored value is 0.
The fix:
added special case for enum type which correctly processes 0 value.
Additional fix:
INSERT...(default) and INSERT...() have the same behaviour now for enum type.

due to ifdef of include file

The problem is that during temporary table creation uneven bits
are not taken into account for hidden fields. It leads to incorrect
calculation&allocation of null bytes size for table record. And
if grouped value is null we set wrong bit for this value(see end_update()).
Fixed by adding separate calculation of uneven bit for hidden fields.

Fixed a compilation warning.

This bug is just one facet of stored routines not being able to
detect changes in meta-data (WL#4179). This particular problem
can be triggered within a single session due to the improper
management of the pre-locking list if the view is expanded after
the pre-locking list is calculated.

Since the overall solution for the meta-data detection issue is
planned for a later release, for now a workaround is used to
fix this particular aspect that only involves a single session.
The workaround is to flush the thread-local stored routine cache
every time a view is created or modified, causing locally cached
routines to be re-evaluated upon invocation.

The problem becomes apparent only if HAVE_purify is undefined.
It related to the part of code placed in open_table_from_share() fuction
where we initialize record buffer only if HAVE_purify is enabled.
So in case of HAVE_purify=OFF record buffer is not initialized
on open table stage.
Next we read key, find NULL value and update appropriate null bit
but do not update record buffer. After that the record is stored
in the join cache(store_record_in_cache). For CHAR fields we
strip trailing spaces and in our case this procedure uses
uninitialized record buffer.
The fix is to skip stripping space procedure in case of null values
for CHAR fields(partially based on 6.0 JOIN_CACHE implementation).

          removed in MySQL 6.0

CREATE TABLE... TYPE= returns the warning "The syntax 
'TYPE=storage_engine' is deprecated and will be removed in 
MySQL 6.0. Please use 'ENGINE=storage_engine' instead" 

This syntax is deprecated already from version 5.4.4, so
the message has been changed.

In addition, the deprecation macro was changed to reflect
the ServerPT decision not to include version number in the
warning message.

A number of test result files have been changed as a
consequence of the change in the deprecation macro.

Queries optimized with GROUP_MIN_MAX didn't cleanup KEYREAD
optimization properly. As a result subsequent queries may
return incomplete rows (fields are initialized to default
values).

logging is disabled

Post-push fix: disabling test when running mysqld in 
               embedded mode.

Grouping by a subquery in a query with a distinct aggregate
function lead to a wrong result (wrong and unordered
grouping values).

There are two related problems:

1) The query like this:

   SELECT (SELECT t1.a) aa, COUNT(DISTINCT b) c
   FROM t1 GROUP BY aa

returned wrong result, because the outer reference "t1.a"
in the subquery was substituted with the Item_ref item.

The Item_ref item obtains data from the result_field object
that refreshes once after the end of each group. This data
is not applicable to filesort since filesort() doesn't care
about groups (and doesn't update result_field objects with
copy_fields() and so on). Also that data is not applicable
to group separation algorithm: end_send_group() checks every
record with test_if_group_changed() that evaluates Item_ref
items, but it refreshes those Item_ref-s only after the end
of group, that is a vicious circle and the grouped column
values in the output are shifted.

Fix: if
       a) we grouping by a subquery and
       b) that subquery has outer references to FROM list
          of the grouping query,
     then we substitute these outer references with
     Item_direct_ref like references under aggregate
     functions: Item_direct_ref obtains data directly
     from the current record.

2) The query with a non-trivial grouping expression like:

   SELECT (SELECT t1.a) aa, COUNT(DISTINCT b) c
   FROM t1 GROUP BY aa+0

also returned wrong result, since JOIN::exec() substitutes
references to top-level aliases in SELECT list with Item_copy
caching items. Item_copy items have same refreshing policy
as Item_ref items, so the whole groping expression with
Item_copy inside returns wrong result in filesort() and
end_send_group().

Fix: include aliased items into GROUP BY item tree instead
     of Item_ref references to them.

logging is disabled
      
The server would hit an assertion because of a DBUG violation.
There was a missing DBUG_RETURN and instead a plain return
was used.
      
This patch replaces the return with DBUG_RETURN.

into slow log
      
While processing a statement, down the mysql_parse execution
stack, the thd->enable_slow_log can be assigned to
opt_log_slow_admin_statements, depending whether one is executing
administrative statements, such as ALTER TABLE, OPTIMIZE,
ANALYZE, etc, or not. This can have an impact on slow logging for
statements that are executed after an administrative statement
execution is completed.
      
When executing statements directly from the user this is fine
because, the thd->enable_slow_log is reset right at the beginning
of the dispatch_command function, ie, everytime a new statement
is set is set to execute.
      
On the other hand, for slave SQL thread (sql_thd) the story is a
bit different. When in SBR the sql_thd applies statements by
calling mysql_parse. Right after, it calls log_slow_statement
function to log them if they take too long. Calling mysql_parse
directly is fine, but also means that dispatch_command function
is bypassed. As a consequence, thd->enable_slow_log does not get
a chance to be reset before the next statement to be executed by
the sql_thd. If the statement just executed by the sql_thd was an
administrative statement and logging of admin statements was
disabled, this means that sql_thd->enable_slow_log will be set to
0 (disabled) from that moment on. End result: sql_thd stops
logging slow statements.
      
We fix this by resetting the value of sql_thd->enable_slow_log to
the value of opt_log_slow_slave_statements right after
log_slow_stement is called by the sql_thd.

Notes
=====
      
This is a backport of BUG#23300 into 5.1 GA.
      
Original cset revid (in betony):
luis.soares@sun.com-20090929140901-s4kjtl3iiyy4ls2h

Description
===========
      
When using replication, the slave will not log any slow query
logs queries replicated from the master, even if the
option "--log-slow-slave-statements" is set and these take more
than "log_query_time" to execute.
                    
In order to log slow queries in replicated thread one needs to
set the --log-slow-slave-statements, so that the SQL thread is
initialized with the correct switch. Although setting this flag
correctly configures the slave thread option to log slow queries,
there is an issue with the condition that is used to check
whether to log the slow query or not. When replaying binlog
events the statement contains the SET TIMESTAMP clause which will
force the slow logging condition check to fail. Consequently, the
slow query logging will not take place.
                    
This patch addresses this issue by removing the second condition
from the log_slow_statements as it prevents slow queries to be
binlogged and seems to be deprecated.

When using MyIsam tables and processing concurrent DML
statements, the server may be sending back an OK to the client
before actually finishing the transaction commit procedure. This
has been reported before in BUG@37521 and BUG@29334.

This particular test case gets affected, because it performs the
following sequence:
  
  connect (conn2, ...)
  connection conn2;
  LOAD DATA CONCURRENT ...
  disconnect (conn2, ...)
  connection master;
  sync_slave_with_master
  diff_tables

At this point diff_tables may report difference in the table
content (the master seems to be missing the conn2 rows). 

To workaround this MyISAM concurrent DML statements issue and
make this test case deterministic, we wait on conn2 until the
rows inserted show up in the table. After this the test case
proceeds as normally would before this patch.

path names than 99 characters, using the USTAR format of the
resulting source TAR.

To be able to specify the use of USTAR when creating the source
TAR, we needed both to update the GNU autotools version requirements
slightly, and update the initiation of the tools to use more
modern constructs.

Performing fulltext prefix search (a word with truncation
operator) may cause a dead-loop. ft_min_word_len value
doesn't matter actually.

The problem was introduced along with "smarter index merge"
optimization.

There was two problems:
The first was the symptom, caused by bad error handling in
ha_partition. It did not handle print_error etc. when
having no partitions (when used by dummy handler).

The second was the real problem that when dropping tables
it reused the table type (storage engine) from when the lock
was asked for, not the table type that it had when gaining
the exclusive name lock. So that it tried to delete tables
from wrong storage engines.

Solutions for the first problem was to accept some handler
calls to the partitioning handler even if it was not setup
with any partitions, and also if possible fallback
to use the base handler's default functions.

Solution for the second problem was to remove the optimization
to reuse the definition from the cache, instead always check
the frm-file when holding the LOCK_open mutex

(updated with a fix for a debug print crash and better
comments as required by reviewer, and removed optimization
to avoid reading the frm-file).

Fixed 2 problems :
1. test_if_order_by_key() was continuing on the primary key
as if it has a primary key suffix (as the secondary keys do).
This leads to crashes in ORDER BY <pk>,<pk>.
Fixed by not treating the primary key as the secondary one
and not depending on it being clustered with a primary key.
2. The cost calculation was trying to read the records 
per key when operating on ORDER BYs that order on all of the 
secondary key + some of the primary key.
This leads to crashes because of out-of-bounds array access.
Fixed by assuming we'll find 1 record per key in such cases.

The problem was that the dbug facility was being used after the
per-thread dbug state had already been finalized. The was present
in a few functions which invoked decrement_handler_count, which
in turn invokes my_thread_end on Windows. In my_thread_end, the
per-thread dbug state is finalized. Any use after the state is
finalized ends up creating a new state.

The solution is to process the exit of a function before the
decrement_handler_count function is called.

The problem was that a DROP TRIGGER statement inside a stored
procedure could cause a crash in subsequent invocations. This
was due to the addition, on the first execution, of a temporary
table reference to the stored procedure query table list. In
a subsequent invocation, there would be a attempt to reinitialize
the temporary table reference, which by then was already gone.

The solution is to backup and reset the query table list each
time a trigger needs to be dropped. This ensures that any temp
changes to the query table list are discarded. It is safe to
do so at this time as drop trigger is restricted from more
complicated scenarios (ie, not allowed within stored functions,
etc).

Server crashes when accessing ARCHIVE table with missing
.ARZ file.

When opening a table, ARCHIVE didn't properly pass through
error code from lower level azopen() to higher level open()
method.

Bulk REPLACE or bulk INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE may
break dynamic record MyISAM table.

The problem is limited to bulk REPLACE and INSERT ... ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE, because only these operations may
be done via UPDATE internally and may request write cache.

When flushing write cache, MyISAM may write remaining
cached data at wrong position. Fixed by requesting write
cache to seek to a correct position.

            table and view...

Invalid memory reads after a query referencing MyISAM table
multiple times with write lock. Invalid memory reads may
lead to server crash, valgrind warnings, incorrect values
in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES.{TABLE_ROWS, DATA_LENGTH,
INDEX_LENGTH, ...}.

This may happen when one of the table instances gets closed
after a query, e.g. out of slots in open tables cache. UNION,
MERGE and VIEW are irrelevant.

The problem was that MyISAM didn't restore state info
pointer to default value.

In case of 'CREATE VIEW' subselect transformation does not happen(see JOIN::prepare).
During fix_fields Item_row may call is_null() method for its arugmens which
leads to item calculation(wrong subselect in our case as
transformation did not happen before). This is_null() call
does not make sence for 'CREATE VIEW'.
Note:
Only Item_row is affected because other items don't call is_null() 
during fix_fields() for arguments.
