COL), NAME_CONST('NAME', NULL))

Backport of Bug#19143243 fix.

NAME_CONST item can return NULL_ITEM type in case of incorrect arguments.
NULL_ITEM has special processing in Item_func_in function.
In Item_func_in::fix_length_and_dec an array of possible comparators is
created. Since NAME_CONST function has NULL_ITEM type, corresponding
array element is empty. Then NAME_CONST is wrapped to ITEM_CACHE.
ITEM_CACHE can not return proper type(NULL_ITEM) in Item_func_in::val_int(),
so the NULL_ITEM is attempted compared with an empty comparator.
The fix is to disable the caching of Item_name_const item.

              LAST BYTE ONLY (YASSL)


Description:- TLS cipher negociation happens incorrectly
leading to the use of a different

Analysis:- YaSSL based MySQL server will compare only the
last byte of each cipher sent in the Client Hello message.
This can cause TLS connections to fail, due to the server
picking a cipher which the client doesn't actually support.

Fix:- A fix for detecting cipher suites with non leading
zeros is included as YaSSL only supports cipher suites with
leading zeros.

Analysis
========
CREATE TABLE of InnoDB table with a partition name
which exceeds the path limit can cause the server
to exit.

During the preparation of the partition name,
there was no check to identify whether the complete
path name for partition exceeds the max supported
path length, causing the server to exit during
subsequent processing.

Fix
===
During the preparation of partition name, check and report
an error if the partition path name exceeds the maximum path
name limit.

This is a 5.5 patch.

Backport from 5.7 to 5.5 Field_set::val_str()
should return String("", 0, cs) rather than String(NULL, 0, cs)

Problem & Analysis: Slave's Receiver thread, Applier thread and worker
    threads are created with LOCAL-INFILE option enabled. As the document
    says https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/load-data-local.html,
    there are some issues if a thread enables local infile.
    This flag should be enabled with care. But for the above mentioned
    internal threads, server is enabling it at the time of creation.

Fix: Further analysis on the code shows that none of threads really
    need this flag to be enabled at any time as Slave never executes
    "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE" after reading it from Relay log.
    Applier thread removes "LOCAL" before start executing the query.

Issue:
------
Running MTR with the --no-reorder option by specifying test cases on the
command line, without prefixing the suite name results in an error saying the
test case was not found in the main suite. This is because MTR looks for the
test case only in the main suite, and no other suites.

Fix:
----
The fix involves searching for the test in every suite if only the test name
is specified. This back-ports two bug fixes: Bug#24967869 and Bug#24365783

RPL_SEMI_SYNC_MASTER_CLIENTS=1

Analysis: Uninstalling rpl_semi_sync_slave on slave
          will trigger removing the slave logic on Master which
          will reduce Rpl_semi_sync_master_clients by one number.
          But it happens asynchronously on Master. Having assert
          to check this value with zero will have problems on
          slow pb2 machines.

Fix: Change assert into wait_for_status_var condition.

               GROUP BY

Issue 1:
--------
This problem occurs in the following conditions:
1) A UNION is present in the subquery of select list and
   handles multiple columns.
2) Query has a GROUP BY.

A temporary table is created to handle the UNION.
Item_field objects are based on the expressions of the
result of the UNION (ie. the fake_select_lex). While
checking validity of the columns in the GROUP BY list, the
columns of the temporary table are checked in
Item_ident::local_column. But the Item_field objects
created for the temporary table don't have information like
the Name_resolution_context that they belong to or whether
they are dependent on an outer query. Since these members
are null, incorrect behavior is caused.

This can happen when such Item objects are cached to apply
the IN-to-EXISTS transform for Item_row.

Solution to Issue 1:
--------------------
Context information of the first select in the UNION will
be assigned to the new Item_field objects.


Issue 2:
--------
This problem occurs in the following conditions:
1) A UNION is present in the subquery of select list.
2) A column in the UNION's first SELECT refers to a table
   in the outer-query making it a dependent union.
3) GROUP BY column refers to the outer-referencing column.

While resolving the select list with an outer-reference, an
Item_outer_ref object is created to handle the
outer-query's GROUP BY list. The Item_outer_ref object
replaces the Item_field object in the item tree.
Item_outer_ref::fix_fields will be called only while fixing
the inner references of the outer query.

Before resolving the outer-query, an Item_type_holder
object needs to be created to handle the UNION. But as
explained above, the Item_outer_ref object has not been
fixed yet. Having a fixed Item object is a pre-condition
for creating an Item_type_holder.

Solution to Issue 2:
--------------------
Use the reference (real_item()) of an Item_outer_ref object
instead of the object itself while creating an
Item_type_holder.

Description: If mysql_stmt_close() encountered error,
             it recorded error in prepared statement
             but then frees memory assigned to prepared
             statement. If mysql_stmt_error() is used
             to get error information, it will result
             into use after free.

             In all cases where mysql_stmt_close() can
             fail, error would have been set by
             cli_advanced_command in MYSQL structure.

Solution: Don't copy error from MYSQL using set_stmt_errmsg.
          There is no automated way to test the fix since
          it is in mysql_stmt_close() which does not expect
          any reply from server.

               XML

Post-push fix for build failure on Linux machine
sles11-x86-64bit

When there are quotes in the USE statement, the mysql client does
not correctly escape them.

The USE statement is processed line by line from the client's parser,
and cannot handle multi-line commands as the server.

The fix is to escape the USE parameters whenever quotes are used.

DESCRIPTION
===========
LOAD XML INFILE performance becomes painfully slow if the
tags' value has any space(s) in between them. They're
usually kept intentionally for indentation purpose.

ANALYSIS
========
The extra spaces are calling clear_level() many a times
which is having overhead of clearing taglist etc. This can
be avoided altogether by skipping all such spaces.

FIX
===
Trim all the starting whitespaces from the value before
passing it to read_value()

Backport to 5.5

Current MySQL builds, even on Pushbuild, are not reproducible; they return
different results depending on which directory they are built from (and
Pushbuild uses several different directories). This is because absolute paths
leak into debug information, and even worse, __FILE__. The latter moves code
around enough that we've actually seen sysbench changes on the order of 4% in
some tests.

CMake seemingly insists on using absolute paths, but we can insert our own
layer between CMake and GCC to relativize all paths. Also give the right flags
to get debug information reproducible and turn off build stamping. This makes
the mysqld build 100% bit-for-bit reproducible between runs on my machine,
even when run from different directories.

DESCRIPTION:
============
Binary data should be printed as hex in the mysql client
when the option binary-as-hex is enabled.

ANALYSIS:
=========
The fix deals only with mysql command line client.
It does not change, at all, the data sent to the
applications. Printing binary data as hex also
allows to use the output in the where clause
of the query.

FIX:
====
A new option 'binary-as-hex' is introduced to print the
binary contents as hex in the mysql client. The option
is disabled by default. When the option is enabled, we
convert the binary data to hex before printing the
contents irrespective of whether it is in tabular,
xml or html format.

               FROM THE CURRENT DIRECTORY

DESCRIPTION
===========
When 'mysqlaccess' tool is run, it reads (and executes) the
content of its configuration file 'mysqlaccess.conf' from
the current directory. This is not a recommended behaviour
as someone with ill intentions can insert malicious
instructions into this file which could be executed
whenever this tool is run.

ANALYSIS
========
The configuration file is presently looked for, in the
following folders (in given order):
1. Current directory
2. SYSCONFDIR       //This gets expanded
3. /etc/

Owing to the reasons mentioned above, we should not permit
the file to be in the current directory. Since the other
two folders are assumed to be accessible only to authorized
people, the config file is safe to be read from there.

FIX
===
Modified the script so that it looks for the config file
now in the following two folders (in the given order):
1. SYSCONFDIR
2. /etc/

If it's absent from above locations but present in current
directory, an error is thrown asking the user to move the
file to one of the above locations and retry.

NOTE
====
The location paths and their precedence are not documented
for this tool. It needs to be noted as part of the

BUG#13969578: TEMPORARY TABLE IN A DATABASE ON A READ-ONLY
                  INSTANCE CAN BE OVERWRITTEN

Analysis:
========

Creation or modification of a persistent table by a non-super user
is NOT ALLOWED in read_only mode. Only TEMPORARY tables are allowed
to be created or modified in read_only mode. But the creation of
a persistent table was being allowed when a temporary table of
the same name existed.

The routine which denies updating a non-temporary table in a
read_only mode does not handle the case of creation of a regular
table when a temporary table of the same exists.

Fix:
===
Handled the condition where an attempt is made to create a persistent
table having the same name as that of the temporary table. Hence
the creation of a persistent table by a non-super user when a
temporary table of the same exists is denied under read_only mode.

Use cmake variable to adjust shebang to platform.
