Analysis and fix:
=================
This issue was fixed as part of Bug#20459363 fix in 5.6 and
above. Hence backporting the fix to MySQL-5.5.

    Problem:
    ========
    1) Drop table queries are re-generated by server
    before writing the events(queries) into binlog
    for various reasons. If table name/db name contains
    a non regular characters (like latin characters),
    the generated query is wrong. Hence it breaks the
    replication.
    2) In the edge case, when table name/db name contains
    64 characters, server is throwing an assert
    assert(M_TBLLEN < 128)
    3) In the edge case, when db name contains 64 latin
    characters, binlog content is interpreted badly
    which is leading replication failure.

    Analysis & Fix :
    ================
    1) Parser reads the table name from the query and converts
    it to standard charset(utf8) and stores it in table_name variable.
    When drop table query is regenerated with the same table_name
    variable, it should be converted back to the original charset
    from standard charset(utf8).

    2) Latin character takes two bytes for each character. Limit
    of the identifier is 64. SYSTEM_CHARSET_MBMAXLEN is set to '3'.
    So there is a possiblity that tablename/dbname contains 3 * 64.
    Hence assert is changed to
    (M_TBLLEN <= NAME_CHAR_LEN*SYSTEM_CHARSET_MBMAXLEN)

    3) db_len in the binlog event header is taking 1 byte.
       db_len is ranged from 0 to 192 bytes (3 * 64).
       While reading the db_len from the event, server
       is casting to uint instead of uchar which is leading
       to bad db_len. This problem is fixed by changing the
       cast type to uchar.

Fixing pb2 valgrind failure
Missed a 'if condition' check while moving the logic
from one place to another place.

Problem:
At the end of first execution select_lex->prep_where is pointing to
a runtime created object (temporary table field). As a result
server exits trying to access a invalid pointer during second
execution.

Analysis:
While optimizing the join conditions for the query, after the
permanent transformation, optimizer makes a copy of the new
where conditions in select_lex->prep_where. "prep_where" is what
is used as the "where condition" for the query at the start of execution.
W.r.t the query in question, "where" condition is actually pointing
to a field in the temporary table. As a result, for the  second
execution the pointer is no more valid resulting in server exit.

Fix:
At the end of the first execution, select_lex->where will have the
original item of the where condition.
Make prep_where the new place where the original item of select->where
has to be rolled back.
Fixed in 5.7 with the wl#7082 - Move permanent transformations from
JOIN::optimize to JOIN::prepare

Patch for 5.5 includes the following backports from 5.6:

Bugfix for Bug12603141 - This makes the first execute statement in the testcase
pass in 5.5

However it was noted later in in Bug16163596 that the above bugfix needed to
be modified. Although Bug16163596 is reproducible only with changes done for
Bug12582849, we have decided include the fix.

Considering that Bug12582849 is related to Bug12603141, the fix is
also included here. However this results in Bug16317817, Bug16317685,
Bug16739050. So fix for the above three bugs is also part of this patch.

               WITH NEW VALGRIND

Issue:
------
Function signature in valgrind.supp requires a change with
valgrind 3.11. Static function is replaced with wild card.

    Problem & Analysis: If DML invokes a trigger or a
    stored function that inserts into an AUTO_INCREMENT column,
    that DML has to be marked as 'unsafe' statement. If the
    tables are locked in the transaction prior to DML statement
    (using LOCK TABLES), then the same statement is not marked as
    'unsafe' statement. The logic of checking whether unsafeness
    is protected with if (!thd->locked_tables_mode). Hence if
    we lock the tables prior to DML statement, it is *not* entering
    into this if condition. Hence the statement is not marked
    as unsafe statement.

    Fix: Irrespective of locked_tables_mode value, the unsafeness
    check should be done. Now with this patch, the code is moved
    out to 'decide_logging_format()' function where all these checks
    are happening and also with out 'if(!thd->locked_tables_mode)'.
    Along with the specified test case in the bug scenario
    (BINLOG_STMT_UNSAFE_AUTOINC_COLUMNS), we also identified that
    other cases BINLOG_STMT_UNSAFE_AUTOINC_NOT_FIRST,
    BINLOG_STMT_UNSAFE_WRITE_AUTOINC_SELECT, BINLOG_STMT_UNSAFE_INSERT_TWO_KEYS
    are also protected with thd->locked_tables_mode which is not right. All
    of those checks also moved to 'decide_logging_format()' function.

               FAILURE WITH VALGRIND FOR RELEASE BUILD

Issue:
------

valgrind 3.11.

SOLUTION:
---------
Initialize the variable to 0.

HA_MYISAMMRG.CC:631

Analysis
========
Any attempt to open a temporary MyISAM merge table consisting
of a view in its list of tables (not the last table in the list)
under LOCK TABLES causes the server to exit.

Current implementation doesn't perform sanity checks during
merge table creation. This allows merge table to be created
with incompatible tables (table with non-myisam engine),
views or even with table doesn't exist in the system.

During view open, check to verify whether requested view
is part of a merge table is missing under LOCK TABLES path
in open_table(). This leads to opening of underlying table
with parent_l having NULL value. Later when attaching child
tables to parent, this hits an ASSERT as all child tables
should have parent_l pointing to merge parent. If the operation
does not happen under LOCK TABLES mode, open_table() checks
for view's parent_l and returns error.

Fix:
======
Check added before opening view Under LOCK TABLES in open_table()
to verify whether it is part of merge table. Error is returned
if the view is part of a merge table.

DOING BAD DDL IN PREPARED STATEMENT

Analysis
========
A repeat execution of the prepared statement 'ALTER TABLE v1
CHECK PARTITION' where v1 is a view leads to server exit.

ALTER TABLE ... CHECK PARTITION is not applicable for views
and check for the same check is missing. This leads to
further execution and creation of derived table for the view
(Allocated under temp_table mem_root). Any reference to open
 view or related pointers from second execution leads to
server exit as the same was freed at previous execution closure.

Fix:
======
Added check for view in mysql_admin_table() on PARTITION
operation. This will prevent mysql_admin_table() from
going ahead and creating temp table and related issues.
Changed message on admin table view operation error to
be more appropriate.

Issue:
-----
When a varchar column is used to fill the record in an
internal temporary table, the length of the string stored
in the column is not taken into account. Instead the
default length of packed data is used to copy with memmove.
This will cause valgrind issues since some bytes are
uninitialized.

SOLUTION:
---------
The solution is to take into account the length of the
string stored in the column while filling the record.

This fix is a backport of BUG#13389854.

Issue
-----
This problem occurs when varchar columns are used in a
internal temporary table. The type of the field is set
incorrectly to the generic FIELD_NORMAL type. This in turn
results in an inaccurate calculation of the record length.
Valgrind issues will occur since initialization has not
happend for some bytes.

Fix
----
While creating the temporary table, the type of the field
needs to be to set FIELD_VARCHAR. This will allow myisam
to calculate the record length accurately.

This fix is a backport of BUG#13350136.

               2ND EXECUTION OF PS

Description:
------------
When MySQL calls 'EXECUTE stmt' firstly to deal with ORDER BY clause which is
similar with 'ORDER BY 1,(t2a.f2+1)' in find_order_in_list(), it believes the
first expression is a position, the function replaces the pointer of the first
expression with Item_field object associated with a temporary table field,
then releases it after the end of the execution, that behavior destroys the
pointer of first expression.

After that, when MySQL calls 'EXECUTE stmt' once more, the first expression
points to an invalid pointer, so it crashed.

Fix:
----
If an item of ORDER clause is a location, reset 'args' with a original value.

===========
When doing an upgrade, you execute mysql_upgrade. If

In main() and check_version_match(), the condition for
errors are clubbed together and throw the same error msg.
The functions need to be splitted up and the corresponding
error msgs have to be displayed.

FIX
===
Splitted the functions and added the specific error msg.

Issue:
======
While re-preparing the statement in
Prepared_statement::swap_prepared_statement for swapping
the database of PS we only swapped the db string but not
its length. This resulted in mismatch between the actual
string and its length. In one particular case where db
of PS was dropped, we have db as null pointer and length
as non-zero. strdup which used above values resulted in
invalid memory access.

Solution:
=========
In Prepared_statement::swap_prepared_statement also swap
db_length along with db variable. Also, remove
DBUG_ASSERT(db_length == copy->db_length) as this have
no meaning if they are 2 different entities.

Move date 10 years forward to let test pass for some more years.

                CRASHES IN WILD_CASE_COMPARE!

Description:- Executing FLUSH PRIVILEGES and REVOKE/
GRANT concurrently crashes the server.

Analysis:- Concurrent FLUSH PRIVILEGES and REVOKE/GRANT
might trigger a small time frame in which REVOKE/GRANT
fetches the "acl_proxy_user" information as a part of
"acl_check_proxy_grant_access()". Meanwhile FLUSH PRIVILEGES
deletes the old acl structures as a part of "acl_reload()".
After which REVOKE/GRANT tries to access the hostname in
"wild_case_compare()" which leads to a crash because of the
invalid memory access.

Fix:- Mutex lock on "acl_cache" is acquired before fetching
"acl_proxy_user" information in
"acl_check_proxy_grant_access()".

Issue:
======

not be used as argument of the MATCH function. Added check for
outer reference.

               CONVERT_CHARSET_PARTITION_CONSTANT:
               SQL/SQL_PARTITION..CC:202

Issue:
-----
This problem happens under the following conditions:
1) A table partitioned with a character column as the key.
2) The expressions specified in the partition definition
   requires a charset conversion. This can happen when the
   server's default collation is different from the
   expression's collation.
3) INSERT DELAYED is used to insert data into the table.

SOLUTION:
---------
While creating the delayed_insert object, initialize it
with the relevant select_lex.

               UPDATE VIEW USING OUTER SUBQUERY

Issue:
-----
While resolving a column which refers to a table/view in an
outer query, it's respecitve item object is marked with the
outer query's select_lex object. But when the column refers
to a view or if the column is part of a subquery in the
HAVING clause, an Item_ref object is created. While the
reference to the outer query is stored by the Item_ref
object, the same is not stored in it's real_item.

This creates a problem with the IN-TO-EXISTS optmization.
When there is an index over the column in the inner query,
it will be considered since the column's real_item object
will be mistaken for a local field. This will lead to a
crash.

SOLUTION:
---------
Under the current design, the only way to fix this issue is
to check the reginfo.join_tab for a NULL value. If yes, the
query should not be worrying about the key use.

Bug#17766653 have been backported.

                FILE

PROBLEM

In 5.5 when doing doing a rename of a column ,we ignore the case between
old and new column names while comparing them,so if the change is just
the case then we don't even mark the field FIELD_IS_RENAMED ,we just update
the frm file ,but don't recreate the table as is the norm when alter is
used.This leads to inconsistency in the innodb data dictionary which causes
index creation to fail.

FIX

According to the documentation any innodb column rename should trigger
rebuild of the table. Therefore for innodb tables we will do a strcmp()
between the column names and if there is case change in column name
we will trigger a rebuild.

Description: The command FLUSH DES_KEY_FILE is expected to
reload the DES keys from the file that was specified with
the "--des-key-file" option at server startup. But it is not
behaving as expected.

Analysis: The des file reload is defined within a wrong
conditional directive, rendering the command ineffective.
Macro "OPENSSL" was used instead of "HAVE_OPENSSL" macro.

Fix: "OPENSSL" macro is changed to "HAVE_OPENSSL".

Note: Backporting the patch from mysql-5.6.

Problem:

A CREATE TABLE with an invalid table name is detected
at SQL layer. So the table name is reset to an empty
string.  But the storage engine is called with this
empty table name.  The table name is specified as
"database/table".  So, in the given scenario we get
only "database/".

Solution:

Within InnoDB, detect this error and report it to
higher layer.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Crash occurs when daemon_example plugin is uninstalled
immediately after its installed. This can be reproduced
by installing and uninstalling the plugin repeatedly.

ANALYSIS
========
The daemon_example_plugin_deinit() function of the daemon
example plugin calls pthread_cancel() but doesn't wait for
the worker thread to actually complete before deallocating
the data buffer and closing the file that it writes to.
This is causing SEGFAULT!

FIX
===
Added a pthread_join() to wait for the thread to complete
before doing the cleanup work.

Removed a stray 'x' variable from the example code.

NOTE
====
Have made an entry in .opt file as given below:
--plugin-dir=$DAEMONEXAMPLE_DIR

This is done so that the program takes plugin directory as
../<dbg>/plugin/daemon_example/ instead of
../lib/plugin/

                PID_FILE CHECK LEADS TO OOM SIG 11

Description:- A server started with 'query_alloc_block_size'
option set to a certain range of negative values on a
machine without enough memory may lead to OOM.

Analysis:- Server uses 'strtoull()' to convert server
variable values of type 'GET_UINT', 'GET_ULONG' or 'GET_ULL'
from string to unsigned long long. According to the man
page, 'strtoull()' function returns either the result of the
conversion or, if there was a leading minus sign, the
negation of the result of the conversion represented as an
unsigned value, unless the original(nonnegated) value would
overflow; in the latter case, strtoull() returns ULLONG_MAX
and sets errno to ERANGE. So 'strtoull()' converts a small
negative value to a larger postive value. For example string
'-1125899906842624' will be converted to an unsigned value,
'18445618173802708992' (ulonglong typecast of
'-1125899906842624'). So a
server started with 'query_alloc_block_size' set to
"-1125899906842624" on a machine without enough memory will
lead to OOM since server allocates '18445618173802708992'
bytes(17178820608 GB) for query allocation block.

Fix:- When server is started with any server variable, of
type "GET_UINT", "GET_ULONG" or "GET_ULL", set to a negative
value, a warning, "option xxx: value -yyy adjusted to zzz"
is thrown and the value is adjusted to the lowest possible
value for that variable. The dynamic server variable which
is configured through the client exhibit the same behavior
as fix made for variables configured during the server
start up.
