Bug #80293 INSERT ... SELECT * FROM does not work for tables with generated columns

Description:
INSERT INTO ... SELECT * FROM ... does not work with generated columns.

How to repeat:
CREATE TABLE `asource` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `generated` tinyint(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (id = 2) STORED NOT NULL
);

CREATE TABLE `adestination` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `generated` tinyint(1) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (id = 2) STORED NOT NULL
);

INSERT INTO adestination 
SELECT asource.* FROM asource;

Results in 

Error Code: 3105. The value specified for generated column 'generated' in table 'adestination' is not allowed.

Fixed title.

Thank you for the bug report.

This is not a bug.

According to the manual http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-table.html, only DEFAULT may be specified as a source for a generated column:

"For INSERT, REPLACE, and UPDATE, if a generated column is inserted into, replaced, or updated explicitly, the only permitted value is DEFAULT."

This is in compliance with the SQL standard for generated columns.

A workaround for your problem is to specify an INSERT column list naming the base columns only:

INSERT INTO adestination(id)
SELECT id FROM asource;

(DEFAULT is only supported in a SELECT ... VALUES statement).
