Description:
If ST_SCHEMA_TABLE::fill_table() returns error then MySQL does not return a proper error message to the client and expects next command from client, but the client is waiting for the output of the issued command, for example - "SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.table"

Following is a typescript from a gdb. It starts from a fill_table function that always returns 1

At this ponint the client is hanging, waiting for the output of
SELECT * FROM innodb_trx;

How to repeat:
Create an INFORMATION SCHEMA plugin whose fill table always returns 1
[28 Oct 2007 14:32] Valeriy Kravchuk 
Thank you for a problem report. Please, try to repeat with a newer version, 5.1.22, and inform about the results.
[30 Oct 2007 15:14] Vasil Dimov 
Valeriy, I still get the "deadlock" with 5.1.23-beta.

Do you have some specific changeset in mind that may have fixed this issue?
[2 Nov 2007 15:01] Vasil Dimov 
Fix subject
[29 Dec 2009 5:59] Susanne Ebrecht 
Vasil,

do you still run into this problem?

Also by using MySQL 5.5?

No feedback was provided for this bug for over a month, so it is
being suspended automatically. If you are able to provide the
information that was originally requested, please do so and change
the status of the bug back to "Open".
[1 Feb 2010 10:09] Vasil Dimov 
Hi,

In 5.1-r3315 the return status from the fill function is ignored - no error is returned to the client or anything printed in the error log.

This behavior is bogus, I am setting the status to "Open".
[2 Feb 2010 10:42] Sveta Smirnova 
Thank you for the report.

Verified as described.

To repeat is possible to modify InnoDN Plugin code as follow:

connection addconroot;
