      Bug#27415 Text Variables in stored procedures · ed43ceb1
      thek@adventure.(none) authored
       - Problem was reported as a SP variable using itself as 
         right value inside SUBSTR caused corruption of data. 
       - This bug could not be verified in either 5.0bk or 5.1bk
       - Added test case to prevent future regressions.

      A fix and a test case for · 747842e1
      kostja@vajra.(none) authored
      Bug#21483 "Server abort or deadlock on INSERT DELAYED with another
      implicit insert"
      Also fixes and adds test cases for bugs:
      20497 "Trigger with INSERT DELAYED causes Error 1165"
      21714 "Wrong NEW.value and server abort on INSERT DELAYED to a
      table with a trigger".
      Post-review fixes.
      
      Problem:
      In MySQL INSERT DELAYED is a way to pipe all inserts into a
      given table through a dedicated thread. This is necessary for
      simplistic storage engines like MyISAM, which do not have internal
      concurrency control or threading and thus can not
      achieve efficient INSERT throughput without support from SQL layer.
      DELAYED INSERT works as follows:
      For every distinct table, which can accept DELAYED inserts and has
      pending data to insert, a dedicated thread is created to write data
      to disk. All user connection threads that attempt to
      delayed-insert into this table interact with the dedicated thread in
      producer/consumer fashion: all records to-be inserted are pushed
      into a queue of the dedicated thread, which fetches the records and 
      writes them.
      In this design, client connection threads never open or lock
      the delayed insert table.
      This functionality was introduced in version 3.23 and does not take 
      into account existence of triggers, views, or pre-locking.
      E.g. if INSERT DELAYED is called from a stored function, which,
      in turn, is called from another stored function that uses the delayed
      table, a deadlock can occur, because delayed locking by-passes
      pre-locking. Besides:
       * the delayed thread works directly with the subject table through
         the storage engine API and does not invoke triggers
       * even if it was patched to invoke triggers, if triggers,
         in turn, used other tables, the delayed thread would
         have to open and lock involved tables (use pre-locking).
       * even if it was patched to use pre-locking, without deadlock
         detection the delayed thread could easily lock out user 
         connection threads in case when the same table is used both
         in a trigger and on the right side of the insert query: 
         the delayed thread would not release locks until all inserts 
         are complete, and user connection can not complete inserts 
         without having locks on the tables used on the right side of the
         query.
      
      Solution:
      
      These considerations suggest two general alternatives for the
      future of INSERT DELAYED:
       * it is considered a full-fledged alternative to normal INSERT
       * it is regarded as an optimisation that is only relevant 
         for simplistic engines.
      Since we missed our chance to provide complete support of new
      features when 5.0 was in development, the first alternative
      currently renders infeasible.
      However, even the second alternative, which is to detect
      new features and convert DELAYED insert into a normal insert, 
      is not easy to implement.
      The catch-22 is that we don't know if the subject table has triggers
      or is a view before we open it, and we only open it in the
      delayed thread. We don't know if the query involves pre-locking
      until we have opened all tables, and we always first create
      the delayed thread, and only then open the remaining tables.
      This patch detects the problematic scenarios and converts
      DELAYED INSERT to a normal INSERT using the following approach:
       * if the statement is executed under pre-locking (e.g. from
         within a stored function or trigger) or the right
         side may require pre-locking, we detect the situation
         before creating a delayed insert thread and convert the statement
         to a conventional INSERT.
        * if the subject table is a view or has triggers, we shutdown
         the delayed thread and convert the statement to a conventional
         INSERT.
