Changes in MySQL 5.6.12 (03 June 2013)

Functionality Added or Changed

   * mysql_upgrade now verifies that the server version matches the
     version against which it was compiled, and exits if there is a
     mismatch. In addiion, a --version-check option permits
     specifying whether to enable version checking (the default),
     or disable checking if given as --skip-version-checking. (Bug
     #16500013)

Bugs Fixed

   * Incompatible Change: When used for an existing MySQL account,
     the GRANT statement could produce unexpected reults if it
     included an IDENTIFIED WITH clause that named an
     authentication plug differing from the plugin named in the
     corresponding mysql.user table row.
     Because IDENTIFIED WITH is intended for GRANT statements that
     create a new user, it is now prohibited if the named account
     already exists. (Bug #16083276)

   * Important Change; Replication: When the server was running
     with --binlog-ignore-db and SELECT DATABASE() returned NULL
     (that is, there was no currently selected database),
     statements using fully qualified table names in dbname.tblname
     format were not written to the binary log. This was because
     the lack of a currently selected database in such cases was
     treated as a match for any possible ignore option rather than
     for no such option; this meant that these statements were
     always ignored.
     Now, if there is no current database, a statement using fully
     qualified table names is always written to the binary log.
     (Bug #11829838, Bug #60188)

   * InnoDB; Partitioning: Joins involving partitioned InnoDB
     tables having one or more BLOB columns were not always handled
     correctly. The BLOB column or columns were not required to be
     join columns, or otherwise to be named or referenced in the
     statement containing the join, for this issue to occur. (Bug
     #16367691)

   * InnoDB: In debug builds, an online ALTER TABLE operation that
     performed a full table copy would raise an assertion. The
     assertion was due to a race condition that would occur during
     BLOB retrieval, when applying the table modification log to
     any log block except for the very last one. This fix modifies
     row_log_table_apply_convert_mrec() to ensure that an index
     B-tree lock is acquired to protect the access to log->blobs
     and the BLOB page. (Bug #16774118)

   * InnoDB: When the function trx_rollback_or_clean_recovered()
     rolls back or cleans up transactions during a crash recovery,
     it removes the trx objects from the trx_sys list without
     freeing up the memory used by those objects. To prevent a
     memory leak, this fix adds trx_free_for_background() calls to
     trx_rollback_resurrected(), the function that removes the trx
     objects. (Bug #16754776)

   * InnoDB: A missing comma in SHOW STATUS output would break
     MySQL Enterprise Monitor parsing. (Bug #16723686)

   * InnoDB: After a clean shutdown, InnoDB does not check .ibd
     file headers at startup. As a result, in a crash recovery
     scenario, InnoDB could load a corrupted tablespace file. This
     fix implements consistency and status checks to avoid loading
     corrupted files. (Bug #16720368)

   * InnoDB: A memory leak would occur in
     dict_check_tablespaces_and_store_max_id() when space_id is
     equal to zero. (Bug #16737332)

   * InnoDB: When ADD PRIMARY KEY columns are reordered in an ALTER
     TABLE statement (for example: ALTER TABLE t1 ADD PRIMARY
     KEY(a,b), CHANGE a a INT AFTER b), the log apply for UPDATE
     operations would fail to find rows. (Bug #16586355)

   * InnoDB: DML operations on compressed temporary tables would
     result in a Valgrind error in the buffer manager stack. (Bug
     #16593331)

   * InnoDB: This fix addresses a race condition that would occur
     between the rollback of a recovered transaction and creation
     of a secondary index in a locked operation. The race condition
     would corrupt the secondary index. (Bug #16593427)

   * InnoDB: For ALTER TABLE operations on InnoDB tables that
     required a table-copying operation, other transactions on the
     table might fail during the copy. However, if such a
     transaction issued a partial rollback, the rollback was
     treated as a full rollback. (Bug #16544143)

   * InnoDB: Under certain circumstances, LRU flushing would take a
     long time possibly affecting all flushing activity and causing
     a shutdown timeout. (Bug #16500209)

   * InnoDB: The recv_writer thread would only start after all redo
     log scans finished. In the case of multiple redo log scans,
     accumulated redo records would be applied after each scan and
     before processing the next scan. The absence of the
     recv_writer thread to help with flushing would slow recovery
     or result in a server startup timeout. This fix ensures that
     the recv_writer thread starts before the first scan batch is
     processed. (Bug #16501172)

   * InnoDB: This fix replaces the IB_ULONGLONG_MAX constant with
     LSN_MAX where the code refers to log sequence numbers, or with
     TRX_ID_MAX where trx->no is initialized to an undefined value.
     This change does not alter the value of the constant. (Bug
     #16458660)

   * InnoDB: This fix corrects the text for InnoDB error 6025,
     which stated, "InnoDB: read can't be opened in ./ib_logfile0
     mode.". The corrected message states, "InnoDB: ./ib_logfile0
     can't be opened in read mode." The variable and mode in the
     message construct were transposed. (Bug #16434398)

   * InnoDB: The page_zip_available function would count some
     fields twice. (Bug #16463505)

   * InnoDB: This fix removes most calls to OS_THREAD_SLEEP from
     InnoDB. (Bug #16472953)

   * InnoDB: Concurrently inserting into a full-text table would
     cause some inserts to fail. Duplicate values would be
     generated for full-text search document IDs when performing
     inserts into a hidden full-text search document ID column.
     (Bug #16469399)

   * InnoDB: FLUSH TABLES FOR EXPORT would sleep too often while
     flushing pages from buffer pools. (Bug #16471701)

   * InnoDB: In cases where threads are forced to do single page
     flushing, fsync() would be triggered for all data files. This
     fix allows for synchronous single page flushing. (Bug
     #16477781)

   * InnoDB: In debug builds, an insert would fail with an invalid
     assertion: sync_thread_levels_g(array, level - 1, TRUE). (Bug
     #16409715)

   * InnoDB: Multiple concurrent calls to dict_update_statistics()
     would result in unnecessary server load. (Bug #16400412)

   * InnoDB: On 64-bit Windows builds, INNODB_BUFFER_POOL_SIZE
     would not accept an allocation of more than 32GB. This
     limitation was due to a bug that truncated the internal value
     for the InnoDB buffer pool size to 32 bits on 64-bit Windows
     builds. (Bug #16391722)

   * InnoDB: Crash recovery would fail with a !recv_no_log_write
     assertion when reading a page. (Bug #16405422)

   * InnoDB: Creating a foreign key constraint using the ALTER
     TABLE INPLACE algorithm requires foreign_key_checks to be set
     to 0 (SET foreign_key_checks = 0;). As a result, an
     appropriate duplicate ID check would not be performed. (Bug
     #16413976)

   * InnoDB: RENAME TABLE would result in a hang due to a MySQL
     mutex acquisition deadlock. (Bug #16305265)

   * InnoDB: DROP DATABASE failed if the database contained an
     InnoDB table that had a data file in an external data
     directory. The external data file had an "InnoDB Symbolic
     Link" file type (.isl) that was not recognized by MySQL. This
     fix adds .isl as a known InnoDB file type. (Bug #16338667)

   * InnoDB: When tables are linked by foreign key constraints,
     loading one table would open other linked tables recursively.
     When numerous tables are linked by foreign key constraints,
     this would sometimes lead to a thread stack overflow causing
     the server to exit. Tables linked by foreign key constraints
     are now loaded iteratively. Cascade operations, which were
     also performed in a recursive manner, are now performed
     iteratively using an explicit stack. (Bug #16244691)

   * InnoDB: When calling the lock_rec_block_validate() function
     after releasing the kernel mutex, there is a chance the lock
     might be invalid and result in a Valgrind error due to an
     invalid read on lock->index. This fix copies the lock->index
     when the kernel mutex is being held and passes the lock->index
     to lock_rec_block_validate(). (Bug #16268289)

   * InnoDB: Under testing, a FLUSH TABLE operation resulted in a
     timeout due to a missing acknowledgement that the purge thread
     had stopped. (Bug #16277387)

   * InnoDB: For a compressed table, the "page reorganize" function
     would ignore the innodb_log_compressed_pages option and always
     log the entire compressed page, which increased the size of
     the redo log. The "page reorganize" function now adheres to
     the innodb_log_compressed_pages option and does not log
     compressed page images to the redo log when
     innodb_log_compressed_pages is set to "OFF". (Bug #16267120)

   * InnoDB: After disabling foreign key checks with SET
     foreign_key_checks=0 and performing a DROP INDEX, the table
     was no longer accessible after restarting the server. This fix
     allows the table with missing foreign key indexes to be
     accessed when SET foreign_key_checks=0. When the table is
     accessible, the user must recreate the missing indexes to
     fulfill the foreign key constraints. (Bug #16208542)

   * InnoDB: When a transaction is in READ COMMITTED isolation
     level, gap locks are still taken in the secondary index when a
     row is inserted. This occurs when the secondary index is
     scanned for duplicates. The function
     row_ins_scan_sec_index_for_duplicate() always calls the
     function row_ins_set_shared_rec_lock() with LOCK_ORDINARY
     irrespective of the transaction isolation level. This fix
     modifies the row_ins_scan_sec_index_for_duplicate() function
     to call row_ins_set_shared_rec_lock() with LOCK_ORDINARY or
     LOCK_REC_NOT_GAP, based on the transaction isolation level.
     (Bug #16133801)

   * InnoDB: Starting mysqld with --innodb_log_buffer_size=50GB
     failed to allocate memory and returned NULL. For non-debug
     builds there was no check in place and a segmentation fault
     occurred. This fix adds a log message stating that memory
     failed to be allocated, and adds an assertion. (Bug #16069598)

   * InnoDB: When UNIV_DEBUG is enabled in debug builds,
     buf_validate() is often called which sometimes results in
     false alarms in tests on semaphore wait timeout. This fix
     increases counter values to reduce false alarms. (Bug
     #16068056)

   * InnoDB: While processing read-write workloads, InnoDB would
     scan more pages than are required for flushing, unnecessarily
     consuming CPU resource. (Bug #16037180)

   * InnoDB: The explain_filename function, which provides
     information about a partition by parsing the file name, would
     return an error when attempting to parse a file name with no
     partition information. (Bug #16051728)

   * InnoDB: Stopping the server, removing a database table (d1.t1)
     .frm file from the data directory, restarting the server, and
     dropping the database (d1), would cause an assertion. (Bug
     #16043216)

   * InnoDB: An active FLUSH TABLE FOR EXPORT thread would cause a
     hang during shutdown. The fix ensures that
     trx_is_interrupted() is checked during ibuf_merge. (Bug
     #15953255)

   * InnoDB: A multi-row INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE insert
     failure, caused by a duplicate key error, would result in
     duplicate auto-increment values. (Bug #14483484)

   * Replication: Point-in-time recovery could fail when trying to
     restore a single database from a binary log in row-based
     format using mysqlbinlog with the --database option. (Bug
     #16698172)

   * Replication: Issuing a FLUSH TABLES statement on a
     GTID-enabled master caused replication to fail. It was found
     that this misbehavior was introduced by the fix for Bug
     #16062608, which disallowed statements that perform an
     implicit commit but whose changes are not logged when
     gtid_next is set to any value other than AUTOMATIC. The
     changes made in that fix have been reverted, and such
     statements are (again) allowed without regard to the value of
     this variable. (Bug #16715809, Bug #69045)

   * Replication: A crash-on-commit error caused InnoDB to lose the
     previous transaction following execution of a RESET MASTER
     statement. This occurred because the prepare phase caused a
     flush to disk, while the commit phase did not perform a
     corresponding flush within InnoDB.
     To fix this problem, RESET MASTER now causes storage engine
     logs to be flushed on commit. (Bug #16666456, Bug #68932)

   * Replication: When used with the options --dump-slave
     --include-master-host-port, mysqldump printed the port number
     within quotation marks, as if it were a string value rather
     than an integer. (Bug #16615117)

   * Replication: When processing an Update_rows_log_event or
     Delete_rows_log_event from the binary log, the before image is
     hashed and stored in a hash table. Following this, the
     original table is scanned for the desired records; subsequent
     processing hashes each record fetched from the original table
     and performs a lookup for it in the hash table. However,
     columns read from the image that had originally been set to
     NULL could instead contain random or "garbage" data, causing
     the lookup (and thus replication) to fail with an error such
     as Could not execute Update_rows event on table.... (Bug
     #16621923)
     References: See also Bug #11766865. This bug was introduced by
     Bug #16566658.

   * Replication: Due to time resolution issues on some systems,
     the time to be taken by the dump thread for a reply from the
     slave could be calculated to be less than zero, leading to
     Semi-sync master wait for reply fail to get wait time errors.
     Since this condition does not have a negative impact on
     replication, errors caused by these conditions have been
     reduced to warnings. (Bug #16579028)

   * Replication: When one or more GTID log events but no previous
     GTIDs log events were found in the binary log, the resulting
     error was mishandled and led to a failure of the server. (This
     is an extremely rare condition that should never occur under
     normal circumstances, and likely indicates that the binary log
     file has somehow been corrupted.) Now in such cases, an
     appropriate error is issued, and is handled correctly. (Bug
     #16502579, Bug #68638)

   * Replication: Running the server with both the
     --log-slave-updates and --replicate-wild-ignore-table options
     in some cases caused updates to user variables not to be
     logged. (Bug #16541422)

   * Replication: When using mysqlbinlog and the mysql client to
     roll forward two or more binary logs on a server having GTIDs
     enabled, the gtid_next variable was not properly reset when
     switching from the first to the second binary log, causing
     processing to halt with an error at that point. (Bug
     #16532543)

   * Replication: The mysqlbinlog options --include-gtids,
     --exclude-gtids, and --skip-gtids did not work correctly when
     trying to process multiple files. (Bug #16517775)

   * Replication: When the size of an execution event exceeded the
     maximum set for the buffer (slave_pending_jobs_size_max),
     row-based replication could hang with Waiting for slave
     workers to free pending events. (Bug #16439245, Bug #68462)

   * Replication: Extra binary log rotations were performed due to
     concurrent attempts at rotation when the binary log became
     full, which were allowed to succeed. This could lead to the
     unnecessary creation of many small binary log files. (Bug
     #16443676, Bug #68575)

   * Replication: Attempting to execute START SLAVE after importing
     new slave_master_info and slave_relay_log_info tables failed
     with an empty error message. Now an appropriate error and
     message are issued in such cases. (Bug #16475866, Bug #68605)

   * Replication: Restarting the server after the
     slave_relay_log_info table had been emptied caused mysqld to
     fail while trying to return an error. (Bug #16460978, Bug
     #68604)

   * Replication: Following disconnection from the master, the
     slave could under certain conditions report erroneously on
     reconnection that it had received a packet that was larger
     than slave_max_allowed_packet, causing replication to fail.
     (Bug #16438800, Bug #68490)

   * Replication: An SQL thread error during MTS slave recovery
     caused the slave to fail. (Bug #16407467, Bug #68506)

   * Replication: When using the options --read-from-remote-server
     --stop-never --base64-output=decode-rows --verbose,
     mysqlbinlog failed to reset the counter used to store the
     current position within the file when the binary log on the
     server was rotated. (Bug #16316123, Bug #68347)

   * Replication: When using mysqldump to back up a database
     created with MySQL 5.6.4 or an earlier version, setting
     --set-gtid-purged=AUTO caused the backup to fail, because
     pre-5.6.5 versions of MySQL did not support GTIDs, and it
     could not be determined if GTIDs were enabled for the
     database. This fix makes sure mysqldump does not attempt to
     output a SET @@global.gtid_purged statement when backing up
     any pre-5.6.5 databases. (Bug #16303363, Bug #68314)

   * Replication: Deadlocks could sometimes occur on group commits
     with a high number of concurrent updates, as well as when one
     client held a lock from a commit while another client imposed
     a lock while rotating the binary log. (Bug #16271657, Bug
     #16491597, Bug #68251, Bug #68569)

   * Replication: When semisynchronous replication was enabled, the
     automatic dropping on the master of an event created using ON
     COMPLETION NOT PRESERVE caused the master to fail. (Bug
     #15948818, Bug #67276)

   * Replication: Setting a SET column to NULL inside a stored
     procedure caused replication to fail. (Bug #14593883, Bug
     #66637)

   * Replication: The binary log contents got corrupted sometimes,
     because the function MYSQL_BIN_LOG::write_cache always thought
     it had reached the end-of-cache when the function my_b_fill()
     reported a '0,' while that could also mean an error had
     occurred. This fix makes sure that whenever my_b_fill()
     returns a '0,' an error check is performed on info->error.
     (Bug #14324766, Bug #60173)

   * Replication: PURGE BINARY LOGS by design does not remove
     binary log files that are in use or active, but did not
     provide any notice when this occurred. Now, when log files are
     not removed under such conditions, a warning is issued; this
     warning includes information about the file or files were not
     removed when the statement was issued. (Bug #13727933)

   * Replication: When replicating to a BLACKHOLE table using the
     binary logging format, updates and deletes cannot be applied
     and so are skipped. Now a warning is generated for this
     whenever it occurs.
     Note
     binlog_format=STATEMENT is recommended when replicating to
     tables that use the BLACKHOLE storage engine.
     (Bug #13004581)

   * Overhead for setting PROCESSLIST_STATE values in the
     Performance Schema THREADS table has been reduced. (Bug
     #16633515)

   * The Windows authentication plugin failed to free a context
     buffer for each connection. (Bug #16591288)

   * The DBUG_PRINT() macro unnecessarily evaluated arguments when
     debugging was not enabled. (Bug #16556597)

   * When index condition pushdown was used on a descending range
     scan and the first range interval did not contain any
     qualifying records, the result of the range scan could be
     empty even if other range intervals contained qualifying
     records. (Bug #16483273)

   * The server could attempt a filesort operation for a zero-size
     sort length, causing it to exit. (Bug #16503160)

   * my_load_defaults() was modified to accommodate some problems
     under compilation with gcc 4.7.2 that could cause a client
     crash during option processing. (Bug #16497125)

   * Opening a cursor on a SELECT within a stored procedure could
     cause a segmentation fault. (Bug #16499751)
     References: This bug is a regression of Bug #14740889.

   * SET PASSWORD treated user@'%' and user@'' as referring to the
     same mysql.user table row. (Bug #16488043)

   * Some INFORMATION_SCHEMA queries that used ORDER BY did not use
     a filesort optimization as they did in MySQL 5.5. (Bug
     #16423536)

   * Performance Schema parameter autosizing at startup did not
     take into account later autosizing changes to other startup
     parameters on which the Performance Schema parameters
     depended. (Bug #16430532)

   * The WKB reader for spatial operations could fail and cause a
     server exit. (Bug #16451878)

   * Optimizer heuristics inappropriately preferred range access
     over ref access in cases when the ref access referred to a
     column of a table earlier in the join seqence. (Bug #16437940)

   * Manually-created accounts (using INSERT) with a malformed
     password effectively had no password. (Bug #16414396)

   * Several scripts in the sql-bench directory that were supposed
     to be executable did not have the executable access bit set.
     (Bug #16395606)

   * For debug builds, DBUG_EXPLAIN resulted in a buffer overflow
     when the debug system variable value was more than 255
     characters. (Bug #16402143)

   * Within an XA transaction in ACTIVE state, statements causing
     an implicit commit could result in metadata locks being
     released too early. (Bug #16362832)

   * thread_pool_high_priority_connection could not be set at
     server startup. (Bug #16310373)

   * Re-execution of a stored procedure could cause a server exit
     in Item_field::fix_outer_field. (Bug #16317443)

   * A GROUP_CONCAT() invocation containing subquery having an
     outer reference caused the server to exit. (Bug #16347343)

   * With secure_auth enabled, a user with a password that used the
     pre-4.1 (old) hashing could not update it to use the 4.1 (new)
     hashing. (Bug #16304018)

   * For debug builds, GROUP_CONCAT(... ORDER BY) within an ORDER
     BY clause could cause a server exit. (Bug #16347426)

   * The validate_password plugin did not always enforce
     appropriate constraints against assigning empty passwords.
     (Bug #16346443)

   * For debug builds, the server could exit for queries involving
     a nested subquery, a subquery tranformed into a semi-join and
     using a view. (Bug #16317076)

   * The range optimizer could set up incorrect ranges for queries
     that used XOR operations. (Bug #16272562)

   * mysql_secure_installation could not connect to the server if
     the account used had an expired password. It invoked mysql
     noninteractively, resulting in that program failing to
     connect. Now mysql supports a --connect-expired-password
     option that indicates to the server that it can handle sandbox
     mode for expired-password accounts even if invoked
     noninteractively, and mysql_secure_installation invokes mysql
     with this option. (Bug #16248315)

   * If loose index scan was used on a query that used MIN(), a
     segmentation fault could occur. (Bug #16222245)

   * If multiple statements were sent in a single request, the
     audit log plugin logged only the last one. Now it logs each
     statement separately. (Bug #16169063)

   * For debug builds, an assertion was incorrectly raised for
     queries executed using eq_ref access and filesort. (Bug
     #16164885)

   * An outer join between a regular table and a derived table that
     is implicitly groups could cause a server exit. (Bug
     #16177639)

   * A prepared statement that used GROUP_CONCAT() and an ORDER BY
     clause that named multiple columns could cause the server to
     exit. (Bug #16075310)

   * Creating a FEDERATED table without specifying a connection
     string caused a server exit. (Bug #16048546)

   * ORDER BY MATCH ... AGAINST could cause a server exit. (Bug
     #16073689)

   * Client programs from MySQL 5.6.4 and up could confuse older
     servers during the connection process by using newer protocol
     features not understood by older servers. (Bug #15965409)

   * When a partition is missing, code in ha_innodb.cc would retry
     10 times and sleep for a microsecond each time while holding
     LOCK_open. The retry logic for partitioned tables was
     introduced as a fix for Bug#33349 but did not include a test
     case to validate it. This fix removes the retry logic for
     partitioned tables. If the problem reported in Bug#33349
     reappears, a different solution will be explored. (Bug
     #15973904)

   * The mysql.server script exited with an error if the status
     command was executed with multiple servers running. (Bug
     #15852074)

   * Use of the VALUES() function in the VALUES() clause of an
     INSERT statement could result in Valgrind warnings or an
     unstable server, possibly leading to a server exit. (Bug
     #14789787)

   * In some cases, REVOKE could fail to revoke the GRANT OPTION
     privilege. (Bug #14799187)

   * The mysql client allocated but did not free a string after
     reading each line in interactive mode, resulting in a memory
     leak. (Bug #14685362)

   * Killing a connection while it was in the process of
     disconnecting could lead to an assertion being raised,
     Valgrind warnings, and general unstability. (Bug #14560522)

   * INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE on a view could cause a
     server exit. (Bug #14261010)

   * Grouping by an outer BLOB column in a subquery caused a server
     exit. (Bug #13966809, Bug #14700180)

   * The server could exit due to improper handling of the error
     from an invalid comparison. (Bug #13009341)

   * The CMake check for unsigned time_t failed on all platforms.
     (Bug #11766815)

   * mysqladmin debug causes the server to write debug information
     to the error log. On systems that supported mallinfo(), the
     memory-status part of this output was incorrect in 64-bit
     environments when mysqld consumed more than 4GB memory.
     Now the server uses malloc_info() to obtain memory-status
     information. malloc_info() does not report the memory that the
     glibc malloc() implementation internally allocates using
     mmap(). However, it does provide the memory usage information
     in all the memory arenas.
     This bug fix also involves a change of output format. The
     server now writes memory information in XML format rather than
     as plain text. Example:
      Memory status:
      <malloc version="1">
      <heap nr="0">
      <sizes>
      <size from="33" to="33" total="1056" count="32"/>
      <size from="65" to="65" total="65" count="1"/>
      <size from="113" to="113" total="226" count="2"/>
      <size from="129" to="129" total="2451" count="19"/>
      <size from="145" to="145" total="290" count="2"/>
      <size from="161" to="161" total="1288" count="8"/>
      <size from="209" to="209" total="418" count="2"/>
      </sizes>
      <total type="fast" count="0" size="0"/>
      <total type="rest" count="66" size="5794"/>
      <system type="current" size="10833920"/>
      <system type="max" size="10833920"/>
      <aspace type="total" size="10833920"/>
      <aspace type="mprotect" size="10833920"/>
      </heap>
      <total type="fast" count="0" size="0"/>
      <total type="rest" count="66" size="5794"/>
      <system type="current" size="10833920"/>
      <system type="max" size="10833920"/>
      <aspace type="total" size="10833920"/>
      <aspace type="mprotect" size="10833920"/>
      </malloc>
     (Bug #11746658)

   * On 64-bit Mac OS X systems, CMake used x86 rather than x86_64
     when determining the machine type. (Bug #58462, Bug #11765489)

   * The mysql client incorrectly used latin1 for certain
     comparisons even if started with a multibyte default character
     set, resulting in a client crash. (Bug #68107, Bug #16182919)

   * The url columns in the mysql datatbase help tables were too
     short to hold some of the URLs in the help content. These
     columns are now created as type TEXT to accommodate longer
     URLs. (Bug #61520, Bug #12671635)

   * mysqld --help and mysqld --verbose --help performed
     unnecessary logging. (Bug #68578, Bug #16442113)

   * InnoDB does not support full-text parser plugins, but failed
     to report an error if they were specified. Now an
     ER_INNODB_NO_FT_USES_PARSER error is returned. (Bug #62004,
     Bug #12843070)

   * If Loose Index Scan was used to evaluate a query that compared
     an integer column to an integer specified as a quoted string
     (for example, col_name = '1'), the query could return
     incorrect results. (Bug #68473, Bug #16394084)

   * IF() function evaluations could produce different results when
     executed in a prepared versus nonprepared statement. (Bug
     #45370, Bug #11753852)

   * If a function such as AES_DECRYPT() that requires SSL support
     failed, the error could affect later calls to functions that
     require SSL support. (Bug #68340, Bug #16315767)

   * In a MySQL server newer than MySQL 5.5 using a nonupgraded
     mysql.user table (for which mysql_upgrade had not been run),
     statements to set passwords caused a server exit due to a
     faulty check for the password_expired column. (Bug #68385, Bug
     #16339767)

   * It is now possible to suppress installation of the mysql-test
     directory after compiling MySQL from source by invoking CMake
     with the INSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR option explicitly set to empty:
      cmake . -DINSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR=
     Previously, attempts to do this resulted in an error. (Bug
     #58615, Bug #11765629)

   * When only counting events but not timing them, Performance
     Schema would report MIN_TIMER_WAIT values as a large number
     instead of 0. (Bug #68768, Bug #16552425)

   * Using range access with an index prefix could produce
     incorrect results. (Bug #68750, Bug #16540042)

   * For debug builds, metadata locking for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT
     could raise an assertion. (Bug #68695, Bug #16503173)

   * A new CMake option, WITH_EDITLINE, is provided to indicate
     whether to use the bundled or system libedit/editline library.
     The permitted values are bundled (the default) and system.
     WITH_EDITLINE replaces WITH_LIBEDIT, which has been removed.
     (Bug #68558, Bug #16430208)

   * When specified in an option file, the plugin-dir client option
     was ignored. (Bug #68800, Bug #16680313)

   * Indexes on derived tables that were used during the first
     invocation of a stored procedure were not used in subsequent
     invocations. (Bug #68350, Bug #16346367)

   * For DELETE and UPDATE statements, EXPLAIN displayed NULL in
     the ref column for some cases where const is more appropriate.
     (Bug #68299, Bug #16296268)

   * The optimizer could choose a poor execution plan for queries
     with ORDER BY ... LIMIT. (Bug #69013, Bug #16697792)
