The problem was that if after FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK the user
issued DROP/ALTER PROCEDURE/FUNCTION the operation would fail (as
expected), but after UNLOCK TABLE any attempt to execute the same
operation would lead to the error 1305 "PROCEDURE/FUNCTION does not
exist", and an attempt to execute any stored function will also fail.

This happened because under FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK we couldn't open
and lock mysql.proc table for update, and this fact was erroneously
remembered by setting mysql_proc_table_exists to false, so subsequent
statements believed that mysql.proc doesn't exist, and thus that there
are no functions and procedures in the database.

As a solution, we remove mysql_proc_table_exists flag completely.  The
reason is that this optimization didn't work most of the time anyway.
Even if open of mysql.proc failed for some reason when we were trying to
call a function or a procedure, we were setting mysql_proc_table_exists
back to true to force table reopen for the sake of producing the same
error message (the open can fail for number of reasons).  The solution
could have been to remember the reason why open failed, but that's a lot
of code for optimization of a rare case.  Hence we simply remove this
optimization.

erroneous check

Problem: Actually there were two problems in the server code. The check
for SQLCOM_FLUSH in SF/Triggers were not according to the existing
architecture which uses sp_get_flags_for_command() from sp_head.cc .
This function was also missing a check for SQLCOM_FLUSH which has a
problem combined with prelocking. This changeset fixes both of these
deficiencies as well as the erroneous check in
sp_head::is_not_allowed_in_function() which was a copy&paste error.

The following procedure was not possible if max_sp_recursion_depth is 0
create procedure show_proc() show create procedure show_proc;
  
Actually there is no recursive call but the limit is checked.
  
Solved by temporarily increasing the thread's limit just before the fetch from cache
and decreasing after that.

Changed trigger-handling code so that there will be the one
place for generate statement string for replication log
and for trigger file.

Changes in an item tree done by optimizer weren't properly
registered and went unnoticed, which resulted in preliminary freeing
of used memory.

  
User name (host name) has limit on length. The server code relies on these
limits when storing the names. The problem was that sometimes these limits
were not checked properly, so that could lead to buffer overflow.

The fix is to check length of user/host name in parser and if string is too
long, throw an error.

There were two problems: RESET QUERY CACHE took a long time to complete
and other threads were blocked during this time.

The patch does three things:
  1 fixes a bug with improper use of test-lock-test_again technique.
      AKA Double-Checked Locking is applicable here only in few places.
  2 Somewhat improves performance of RESET QUERY CACHE.
      Do my_hash_reset() instead of deleting elements one by one.  Note
      however that the slowdown also happens when inserting into sorted
      list of free blocks, should be rewritten using balanced tree.
  3 Makes RESET QUERY CACHE non-blocking.
      The patch adjusts the locking protocol of the query cache in the
      following way: it introduces a flag flush_in_progress, which is
      set when Query_cache::flush_cache() is in progress.  This call
      sets the flag on enter, and then releases the lock.  Every other
      call is able to acquire the lock, but does nothing if
      flush_in_progress is set (as if the query cache is disabled).
      The only exception is the concurrent calls to
      Query_cache::flush_cache(), that are blocked until the flush is
      over.  When leaving Query_cache::flush_cache(), the lock is
      acquired and the flag is reset, and one thread waiting on
      Query_cache::flush_cache() (if any) is notified that it may
      proceed.

server to crash".

Crash caused by assertion failure happened when one ran SHOW OPEN TABLES
while concurrently doing DROP TABLE (or RENAME TABLE, CREATE TABLE LIKE
or any other command that takes name-lock) in other connection.
For non-debug version of server problem exposed itself as wrong output
of SHOW OPEN TABLES statement (it was missing name-locked tables).
Finally in 5.1 both debug and non-debug versions simply crashed in
this situation due to NULL-pointer dereference.

This problem was caused by the fact that table placeholders which were
added to table cache in order to obtain name-lock had TABLE_SHARE::table_name
set to 0. Therefore they broke assumption that this member is non-0 for
all tables in table cache which was checked by assert in list_open_tables()
(in 5.1 this function simply relies on it).
The fix simply sets this member for such placeholders to appropriate value
making this assumption true again.

This patch also includes test for similar bug 12212 "Crash that happens
during removing of database name from cache" reappeared in 5.1 as bug 19403.

Corrected build issues : the build can not be conditional.
to keep a unique source .tar.gz distribution.

Changed the automake build process :
- ./configure.in
- ./sql/Makefile.am
to compile an instrumented parser for debug=yes or debug=full builds

Changed the (primary) runtime invocation of the parser :
- sql/sql_parse.cc
to generate bison traces in stderr when the DBUG "parser_debug" flag is set.

Before this fix,
- a runtime error in a statement in a stored procedure with no error handlers
was properly detected (as expected)
- a runtime error in a statement with an error handler inherited from a non
local runtime context (i.e., proc a with a handler, calling proc b) was
properly detected (as expected)
- a runtime error in a statement with a *local* error handler was executed
as follows :
a) the statement would succeed, regardless of the error condition, (bug)
b) the error handler would be called (as expected).

The root cause is that functions like my_messqge_sql would "forget" to set
the thread flag thd->net.report_error to 1, because of the check involving
sp_rcontext::found_handler_here().
Failure to set this flag would cause, later in the call stack,
in Item_func::fix_fields() at line 190, the code to return FALSE and consider
that executing the statement was successful.

With this fix :
- error handling code, that was duplicated in different places in the code,
is now implemented in sp_rcontext::handle_error(),
- handle_error() correctly sets thd->net.report_error when a handler is
present, regardless of the handler location (local, or in the call stack).

A test case, bug8153_subselect, has been written to demonstrate the change
of behavior before and after the fix.

Another test case, bug8153_function_a, as also been writen.
This test has the same behavior before and after the fix.
This test has been written to demonstrate that the previous expected
result of procedure bug18787, was incorrect, since select no_such_function()
should fail and therefore not produce a result.

The incorrect result for bug18787 has the same root cause as Bug#8153,
and the expected result has been adjusted.
