Description:
Master-slave replication set up with 4.1.11a.

How to repeat:
On the master, execute:

create temporary table foo (a int); truncate foo; drop temporary table foo;

On the slave, observe that Slave_open_temp_tables increases by 1 for each time your execute that sequence of queries.

[Note that delete from foo does not do this, only truncate foo]

Thank you for a bug report. Verified just as described with 4.1.19-BK (ChangeSet@1.2469, 2006-02-11 23:35:23+01:00) build on Linux.

When the temp table is truncated it will be closed, "regenerated" and then reopened. During this process it forgets to decrease the counter of open temp tables when it closes the temp table, but it will increase when it's repoened. This means that the temp table are closed/opened correctly, but the counter is wrong.

Patch is approved, will just rework it a little before pushing.

Bug existed only in 4.1 and 5.0. Worked without patch in 5.1 although the testcase was pushed there as well.

Noted in 4.1.19, 5.0.20, 5.1.8 changelogs.

Use of <literal>TRUNCATE TABLE</literal> for a
<literal>TEMPORARY</literal> table on a master server was
propagated to slaves properly, but slaves did not decrement
the <literal>Slave_open_temp_tables</literal> counter
properly. (Bug #17137)
