ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM= ... STATEMENT

The problem was an intermediate buffer of smaller size,
which truncated the alter statement.

Solved by providing the size of the buffer to be allocated through
the function call, instead of using an one-size-fits-all stack buffer
inside the function.

Bug16785036 - RPM REQUIRES: MISSING PACKAGES ON RHEL 6 (AND PROBABLY 5)
Bug 16878042 - CANNOT KEEP SEVERAL MAJOR VERSIONS OF MYSQL IN THE SAME YUM REPOSITORY

Backported the deprecation warnings from WL#6978 to 5.5

Problem:

The problem is that explain_filename-t is not printing a test plan as
required by the TAP protocol. The test invokes plan(NO_PLAN) but does not
invoke exit_status() at the end, where the plan would be printed.

Solution:

Invoke exit_status() at the end.

Straight forward backport.

LOAD DATA CAN CAUSE SQL INJECTION

Problem:
=======
A long SET expression in LOAD DATA is incorrectly truncated
when written to the binary log.

Analysis:
========
LOAD DATA statements are reconstructed once again before
they are written to the binary log. When SET clauses are
specified as part of LOAD DATA statement, these SET clause
user command strings need to be stored as it is inorder to
reconstruct the original user command.  At present these
strings are stored as part of SET clause item tree's
top most Item node's name itself which is incorrect. As an
Item::name can be of MAX_ALIAS_NAME (256) size. Hence the
name will get truncated to "255".

Because of this the rewritten LOAD DATA statement will be
terminated incorrectly.  When this statment is read back by
the mysqlbinlog tool it reads a starting single quote and
continuos to read till it finds an ending quote. Hence any
statement written post ending quote will be considered as
a new statement.

Fix:
===
As name field has length restriction the string value
should not be stored in Item::name.  A new String list is
maintained to store the SET expression values and this list
is read during reconstrution.

sql/sql_lex.cc:
  Clear the load data set string list during each query 
  execution.
sql/sql_lex.h:
  Added a new String list to store the load data operation's
  SET clause user command strings.
sql/sql_load.cc:
  Read the SET clause user command strings from load data
  set string list.
sql/sql_yacc.yy:
  Store the SET caluse user command string as part of load
  data set string list.

Sys_var_keycache inherits from some variant of Sys_var_integer

Instances of Sys_var_keycache are initialized using the KEYCACHE_VAR macro,
which takes an offset within st_key_cache.
However, the Sys_var_integer CTOR treats the offset as if it was within
global_system_variables (hidden within some layers of macros and fuction
pointers)

The result is that we write arbitrary data to arbitrary locations in memory.
This all happens during static initialization of global objects,
i.e. before we have even entered the main() function.

DDL AND I_S QUERIES

Skip partially created indexes (ones whose name starts with TEMP_INDEX_PREFIX)
from stats gathering.

Because InnoDB reports HA_INPLACE_ADD_INDEX_NO_WRITE to MySQL, the latter
allows parallel execution of ha_innobase::add_index() and ha_innobase::info().

IF IT HAS A WRONG COUNT

If CHECK TABLE finds that a secondary index contains the wrong
number of entries, it used to report an error but not mark the
index as corrupt. The error means that the index should be rebuilt,
which can be done with ALTER TABLE DROP INDEX and ALTER TABLE ADD
INDEX.  But just in case the DBA does not pay any attention to the
output of CHECK TABLE, the secondary index should be marked as
corrupted so that it is not used again.

             TO INCONSISTENCY 

PROBLEM
--------
When we drop a partitoned table , we first gather the
information about partitions in the table from the 
table_name.par file and store it in an internal data 
structure.Then we delete this file and the data in 
the table. If the server crashes  after deleting the
file,then after recovering we cannot access the table
.Even we cannot drop the table ,because drop algorithm
requires par file to read the partition information.


FIX
---
1. We move the part of deleting par file after deleting 
   all the table data from the storage egine.
2. During drop operation if we detect that the par 
   file is missing then we delete the .frm file,since 
   there is no way of recovering without par file.

ON DELETION ORDER

Problem:

When a InnoDB index page is under-filled, we will merge it with either
the left sibling node or the right sibling node.  But this checking is
incorrect.  When the left sibling node is available, even if merging
is not possible with left sibling node, we do not check for the 
possibility of merging with the right sibling node.  

Solution:

If left sibling node is available, and merging with left sibling node
is not possible, then check if merge with right sibling node is
possible.

CAN LEAD TO MISSING TABLES

Overview
--------
If the FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS system variable is set to 0, it is
possible to break a foreign key constraint by changing the type
or character set of the foreign key column, or by dropping the
foreign key index (without carrying out corresponding changes on
another table in the relationship).

If we subsequently set FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS to 1 and execute ALTER
TABLE involving the COPY algorithm on such a table, the following
happens:

1) If ALTER TABLE does not contain a RENAME clause, the attempt 
   to install the new version of the table instead of the old one
   will fail due to the fact that the inconsistency will be 
   detected. An attempt to revert the partially executed alter 
   table operation by restoring the old table definition will 
   fail as well due to FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS == 1. As a result, the 
   table being altered will be lost.
2) If ALTER TABLE contains the RENAME clause, the inconsistency 
   will not be detected (most probably due to other bugs). But if
   an attempt to install the new version of the table fails (for 
   example, due to a failure when updating triggers associated 
   with the table), reverting the partially executed alter table 
   by restoring the old table definition will fail too. So the 
   table being altered might be lost as well.


Suggested fix
-------------
The suggested fix is to temporarily unset the option bit
representing FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS when the old table definition is
restored while reverting the partially executed operation.
