Notable changes

In addition to the MariaDB-5.5.43 fixes and improvements, the following fixes and improvements have been made to MariaDB 10.0.18.

Parser

  • Fixed unrecognised column quoted with backticks in a function in a HAVING clause (MDEV-7301).
  • ALTER TABLE with conflicting CHARACTER SET and CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET arguments now reports error (MDEV-7386).
  • Fixed Regression (from 10.0.14): Bit and hex string literals changed column names (MDEV-7629).

Optimizer

Alter Table

  • Some symbols in table name can cause to Error Code: 1050 when created FK. Table name is on filename charset but foreign key identifiers are not. This lead incorrect foreign key identifier number to be used (MDEV-7627).
  • ALTER [ONLINE] TABLE with no options no longer requires a table copy (MDEV-7390).
  • Fixed a case where it was impossible to create copy of a table if the table contained a default value for timestamp field in sql_mode="NO_ZERO_DATE" (MDEV-7778).

Other SQL Commands

  • INSTALL PLUGIN can now be done in bootstrap mode where authentication is disabled (MDEV-7781).
  • Corrected error handing in AES_ENCRYPT/AES_DECRYPT where incorrect data could result in a SSL client connection being terminated (MDEV-7697).
  • Corrected Assertion `status_var.memory_used == 0' failed in THD::THD() on disconnect after executing EXPLAIN for multi-table UPDATE (MDEV-7038).
  • Fixed crash when dropping user within rebuild_role_grants which occurs in some cases in SHOW GRANTS and DROP ROLE (MDEV-7774).
  • SHOW GRANTS now shows the password for users that have the password field set, auth_string field empty, plugin=mysql_native_password (MDEV-7985).

Innodb

  • In Debug builds, an assertion could be triggered on really large blobs (MDEV-7754).
  • Fixed segfault when a virtual column used on an Innodb table and an index was created on a field after the virtual column (MDEV-7367).
  • Fixed server crash when inserting more rows than available space on disk (MDEV-7685).
  • Now possible to get Innodb internal primary key for wrapper type storage engines (MDEV-7714).

Replication

Platforms

  • PowerPC - fixed Innodb locking issue under high load - (MDEV-7148).
  • BigEndian now builds in Cassandra storage engine (MDEV-7839).
  • Fixed crash when running MariaDB Debug with InnoDB on Windows (MDEV-8079).

Connect Engine

  • CONNECT Engine Column names are now retrieved properly when field values are not latin1 characters (MDEV-7521).
  • Fixed problem where connecting to missing remote table caused error that was re-reported when SHOW TABLE STATUS on a correctly formed table (MDEV-7636).
  • Fixed problem where CONNECT returned error 174 on query to MS SQL Server 2012 involving timestamp column when the condition is given as a date literal (MDEV-7840).
  • CONNECT now works with if(exists(select * from test)) statement in procedures (MDEV-7852).
  • Fixed user variable assignment with SET @var = that resulted in ERROR 1148 (42000): CONNECT Unsupported command (MDEV-7616).
  • Removed assertion in delete_or_rename_table that caused crashes on (XML) HTML tables (MDEV-7935).
  • Added UDF Json_Array_Delete (MDEV-7935).
  • Fixed a problem where defining indexes on a connect engine caused wrong results (MDEV-8090).

OQ Graph Engine

Other

  • SSL connections increased from 512 to 1024 bits in Diffie-Hellman exchange to support fips (MDEV-7794).
  • Fixed problem where SSL read/write timeouts were 1000 times too high due to seconds/milliseconds error (MDEV-8096).
  • OpenSSL now uses MD5 even if FIPS prohibited it, fixing a previous crash. This is fine as MD5 is not used for cryptographical purposes (md5 is used internally for P_S message digests and for view checksums) (MDEV-7788).
  • Fixed problem where Initialization of status variables was not invoked for embedded (no bug reference. code change)
  • Corrected wrong results with bigint when compiled with gcc 5.0 (MDEV-7973).
  • Fixed assertion in Protocol::end_statement where CREATE VIEW occured after another connection aborted (MDEV-8045).

Client

  • Fixed MariaDB client where it could hang in an infinite loop based on no IO data returned (MDEV-8014).
