Hi Sergei,

Thanks for review.
My comments go inline:

Hi, Alexander!

Thanks! The patch is pretty much ok.
There are only few comments/questions, see below.

    Hi,

Please review my patch for MDEV-5528.

It also fixes a bug:

MDEV-6649 Different warnings for TIME and TIME(N) when
@@old_mode=zero_date_time_cast

Please, try to put different changes in different commit.
In git you can use "git add -p", "git stash",
"git rebase --interactive", and other commands to split all your changes
in logical commits.

Okey.

Hm. So, you've changed the default DATETIME(0) format too?

Yes. There's no reason to spend extra 3 bytes.
Also, I believe MySQL will deprecate support for the old formats sooner
or later. I'd like to deprecate at the same time in Maria.

I think, the change itself is ok - this SELECT uses internal temporary table, it's HEAP,
with HASH indexes, and the hash value of the datetime(0) column has changed when you changed the storage
format. But to keep results stable better add --sorted_result to the test file.

Okey, I will add --sorted_result.

Having this bugfix in this commit means that it'll only go in 10.1.
Is there a good reason for it?

There are no reasons. I will push it into 10.0.

Why is that?
1. quoting
2. (0)

hmm, quoting is ok, I suppose. time values were (and are) quoted, timestamp values were (and are) not quoted,
so it's kind of ok to quote datetime values here

I added '(0)' when implemented the FSP data types MySQL,
so one can distinguish between the old format and the new format
when reading the mysqlbinlog output.

If you don't like this, I can suppress printing the precision
in case of FSP=0.

Hmm. The comment in the test file says

    This test records what *internal type codes* innodb is using for every
    MariaDB data type. THEY MUST ALWAYS BE THE SAME AND NEVER CHANGE!
    Otherwise we create a compatibility problem and possible silent data
    corruption too, see MDEV-5248

I suspect in your case the change is ok, as you've also changed the server type code
for a field. But still please MDEV-5248, and test a scenario from there
(upgrade + online alter) to make sure you didn't break it. And the same scenario
for upgrade from mysql-5.5 and from mysql-5.6

Can you suggest how to test this? I have never done this kind of
tests with InnoDB yet.

I guess I need create InnoDB tables in MariaDB-10.0, MySQL-5.5 and MySQL-5.6, put them into mysql-test/std_data/.
In the new test I'll copy these files into the data directory
and try to do online alter on them.

What I don't understand: should I use innodb_file_per_table=YES and put
individual table files into std_data, or should I use
innodb_file_per_table=NO and put the entire ibdata
file into std_data? Perhaps we need to cover both.
But the minimum ibdata size is quite huge, 10Mb.

Also, what is the proper way to replace the InnoDB files in
a working server? Do I need to do "FLUSH TABLES" before "cp",
or some other command?


By the way, there should not be any problems with MySQL-5.6,
because it has, or course, exactly the same patch about the
InnoDB data type mapping.

If you need to run one test with different settings, you can, of course, include it many times
in different files, but there's also an alternative approach - combinations. It's not always
applicable, but when it is, it's pretty convenient and concise.

Thanks for the tip. Would combinations work for my purposes?
Do you want me to switch the tests to use combinations?

I'd expect that when decimals() == 0, the object would be Field_timestamp, not
Field_timestamp_with_dec. How do you end up here with decimals() == 0?


The actual object that is created is Field_timestampf,
which is derived from Field_timestamp_with_dec.

It is implemented this way in MySQL,
and the idea is to deprecate the old type codes asap.
Why have two type codes?

Are you sure we want this as a session variable?

From my understanding, it has a very low impact on the end user,
because there are no visible behaviour change other than the column
sizes in "EXPLAIN SELECT" output. So the end users does not really care.

This can be important for DBAs only, when they want to upgrade with
a minimum risk.

Why did that change?

This is only for DATETIME, and only for FSP=5.


Tokudb can do ALTER only if binary size of the old and the new column
are the same.

In MariaDB-5.3, binary size of datetime(5) is equal to binary size of datetime(4).

MySQL-5.6, binary size of datetime(5) is equal to binary size of datetime(6).
