WHERE predicates containing references to empty tables in a
subquery were handled incorrectly by the optimizer when
executing EXPLAIN. As a result, the optimizer could try to
evaluate such predicates rather than just stop with
"Impossible WHERE noticed after reading const tables" as 
it would do in a non-subquery case. This led to valgrind 
errors and crashes.

Fixed the code checking the above condition so that subqueries
are not excluded and hence are handled in the same way as top
level SELECTs.

When making sure that the directory path ends up with a 
slash/backslash we need to check for the correct length of 
the buffer and trim at the appropriate location so we don't
write past the end of the buffer.

The crash is the result of an attempt made by JOIN::optimize to evaluate
the WHERE condition when no records have been actually read.
The fix is to remove erroneous 'outer_join' variable check.

The crash happens because greedy_serach
can not determine best plan due to
wrong inner table dependences. These
dependences affects join table sorting
which performs before greedy_search starting.
In our case table which has real 'no dependences'
should be put on top of the list but it does not
happen as inner tables have no dependences as well.
The fix is to exclude RAND_TABLE_BIT mask from
condition which checks if table dependences
should be updated.

When making sure that the directory path ends up with a

the buffer and trim at the appropriate location so we don't
write past the end of the buffer.

CHECK_FIELD_IGNORE was treated as CHECK_FIELD_ERROR_FOR_NULL;
UPDATE...SET...NULL on NOT NULL fields behaved differently after
a trigger.

Now distinguishes between IGNORE and ERROR_FOR_NULL and save/restores
check-field options.

When mysqlbinlog was given the --database=X flag, it always printed
'ROLLBACK TO', but the corresponding 'SAVEPOINT' statement was not
printed. The replicated filter(replicated-do/ignore-db) and binlog
filter (binlog-do/ignore-db) has the same problem. They are solved
in this patch together.

After this patch, We always check whether the query is 'SAVEPOINT'
statement or not. Because this is a literal check, 'SAVEPOINT' and
'ROLLBACK TO' statements are also binlogged in uppercase with no
any comments.

The binlog before this patch can be handled correctly except one case
that any comments are in front of the keywords. for example:
 /* bla bla */ SAVEPOINT a;
 /* bla bla */ ROLLBACK TO a;

The log event of 'CREATE EVENT' was being binlogged with garbage
at the end of the query if 'CREATE EVENT' is followed by another SQL statement
and they were executed as one command.
for example:
    DELIMITER |;
    CREATE EVENT e1 ON EVERY DAY DO SELECT 1; SELECT 'a';
    DELIMITER ;|
When binlogging 'CREATE EVENT', we always create a new statement with definer
and write it into the log event. The new statement is made from cpp_buf(preprocessed buffer).
which is not a c string(end with '\0'), but it is copied as a c string.

In this patch, cpp_buf is copied with its length.

Fix a non-determinism in innodb_bug38231.

Reported by:	Sergey Vojtovich <svoj@Sun.COM>

The crash happens because of incorrect max_length calculation
in QUOTE function(due to overflow). max_length is set
to 0 and it leads to assert failure.
The fix is to cast expression result to
ulonglong variable and adjust it if the
result exceeds MAX_BLOB_WIDTH.

There was no way to repair corrupt ARCHIVE data file,
when unrecoverable data loss is inevitable.

With this fix REPAIR ... EXTENDED attempts to restore
as much rows as possible, ignoring unrecoverable data.

Normal REPAIR is still able to repair meta-data file
only.

by sort and fulltext keys.

Min value for myisam_sort_buffer_size is 4096.

Repairing MyISAM table with fulltext indexes and low
myisam_sort_buffer_size may crash the server.

Estimation of number of index entries was done incorrectly,
causing further assertion failure or server crash.

Docs note: min value for myisam_sort_buffer_size has been
changed from 4 to 4096.

Invalid memory read if HANDLER ... READ NEXT is executed
after failed (e.g. empty table) HANDLER ... READ FIRST.

The problem was that we attempted to perform READ NEXT,
whereas there is no pivot available from failed READ FIRST.

With this fix READ NEXT after failed READ FIRST equals
to READ FIRST.

This bug affects MyISAM tables only.

When MyISAM writes newly created index page it may be
initialized partially. In other words some bytes of
sensible data and uninitialized tail of the page may
go into index file.

Under certain rare circumstances these hunks of memory
may contain data that would be otherwise inaccessible
to user, like passwords or data from other tables.

Fixed by initializing memory for temporary MyISAM key
buffer to '\0'.

No test case for this fix as it is heavily covered by
existing tests.

branches/5.1: fix bug#51653: outdated reference to set-variable
Non functional change.

If the listed columns in the view definition of 
the table used in a 'INSERT .. SELECT ..'
statement mismatched, a debug assertion would
trigger in the cache invalidation code
following the failing statement.

Although the find_field_in_view() function
correctly generated ER_BAD_FIELD_ERROR during
setup_fields(), the error failed to propagate
further than handle_select(). This patch fixes
the issue by adding a check for the return
value.

  col equal to itself!

There's no need to copy the value of a field into itself.
While generally harmless (except for some performance penalties)
it may be dangerous when the copy code doesn't expect this.
Fixed by checking if the source field is the same as the destination
field before copying the data.
Note that we must preserve the order of assignment of the null 
flags (hence the null_value assignment addition).

The reason of the failure was apparent flaw in that a pointer to an uninitialized buffer was
passed to DBUG_PRINT of Protocol_text::store().

Fixed with splitting the print-out into two branches: 
one with length zero of the problematic arg and the rest.

            myisam tables

Queries following TRUNCATE of partitioned MyISAM table
may crash server if myisam_use_mmap is true.

Internally this is MyISAM bug, but limited to partitioned
tables, because MyISAM doesn't use ::delete_all_rows()
method for TRUNCATE, but goes via table recreate instead.

MyISAM didn't properly fall back to non-mmaped I/O after
mmap() failure. Was not repeatable on linux before, likely
because (quote from man mmap):
  SUSv3  specifies  that  mmap() should fail if length is 0.
  However, in kernels before 2.6.12, mmap() succeeded in
  this case: no mapping was created and the call returned
  addr. Since kernel 2.6.12, mmap() fails with the error
  EINVAL for this case.
