Before this patch, the code in Item_field::print() used this convention (described in sql_explain.h:ExplainDataStructureLifetime): - By default, the table that Item_field refers to is accessible. - ANALYZE and SHOW {EXPLAIN|ANALYZE} may print Items after some temporary tables have been dropped. They use QT_DONT_ACCESS_TMP_TABLES flag. When it is ON, Item_field::print will not access the table it refers to, if it is a temp.table The bug was that EXPLAIN statement also may compute subqueries (depending on subquery context and @@expensive_subquery_limit setting). After the computation, the subquery calls JOIN::cleanup(true) which drops some of its temporary tables. Calling Item_field::print() that refer to such table will cause an access to free'd memory. In this patch, we take into account that query optimization can compute a subquery and discard its temporary tables. Item_field::print() now assumes that any temporary table might have already been dropped. This means QT_DONT_ACCESS_TMP_TABLES flag is not needed - we imply it is always present. But we also make one exception: derived tables are not freed in JOIN::cleanup() call. They are freed later in close_thread_tables(), at the same time when regular tables are closed. Because of that, Item_field::print may assume that temp.tables representing derived tables are available. Initial patch by: Rex Jonston Reviewed by: Monty <monty@mariadb.org>
