Bug#16691598 - ORDER BY LOWER(COLUMN) PRODUCES OUT-OF-ORDER RESULTS
Problem:- We have created a table with UTF8_BIN collation. In case, when in our query we have ORDER BY clause over a function call we are getting result in incorrect order. Note:the bug is not there in 5.5. Analysis: In 5.5, for UTF16_BIN, we have min and max multi-byte length is 2 and 4 respectively.In make_sortkey(),for 2 byte character character we are assuming that the resultant length will be 2 byte/character. But when we use my_strnxfrm_unicode_full_bin(), we store sorting weights using 3 bytes per character.This result in truncated result. Same thing happen for UTF8MB4, where we have 1 byte min multi-byte and 4 byte max multi-byte.We will accsume resultant data as 1 byte/character, which result in truncated result. Solution:- use strnxfrm(means use of MY_CS_STRNXFRM macro) is used for sort, in which the resultant length is not dependent on source length.
