Description:
------------
If execute "explain ..." query with non-existent keys - occure segfault.

(my english very ugly, i from Ukraine)

Test script:
---------------
<?php
	$req = mysqli_connect('127.0.0.1', 'root', 'qwerty'); // <-- must be valid mysql server and user/password
	
	// create db and table for test
	mysqli_query($req, "CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS test42") or die(mysqli_error($req));
	mysqli_select_db($req, 'test42') or die(mysqli_error($req));
	mysqli_query($req, "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS users") or die(mysqli_error($req));
	mysqli_query($req, "CREATE TABLE users (id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT 0)") or die(mysqli_error($req));
	
	// segfault if EXPLAIN + "Unknown column" error
	mysqli_query($req, "EXPLAIN SELECT `id` FROM `users` WHERE `owner_id` = '2' AND `object_id` = '1' AND type = '0'") or die(mysqli_error($req));

I also encountered this crash when dealing with errors in MySQL SELECT queries. I'm running PHP 7.1 (master) on Debian linux. The error seems to caused by a null function table pointer. The result set error_info struct is not initialized with callbacks and segfaults when the COPY_CLIENT_ERROR macro is called.

The patch potentially fixes this issue by copying the error_info struct of the row packet into the the result set error_info struct.

This problem is not isolated to MySQLi but any extension, such as PDO, that uses the mysqlnd backend.

@andrey: The PR (https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/1858) points out that this is likely caused by https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/4bb784cd0d80c330364cdfebc824a434cc27f05a. Could you please take a look at the PR and check if it is correct?

I can't reproduce also with the test script from this bug report (in the previous comment I tested with the test script from the Pull Request)

@andrey

I still get this bug on PHP 7.1. However I'm using Windows 10, previously on Windows 7, and am using PHP 7.1.0alpha3 Thread Safe. I downloaded the build from here: http://windows.php.net/qa/. I also just test the non thread safe build and encounter the same problem.

I will test on linux to eliminate that as a possible cause.

Also I'm using MariaDB and not Oracle's MySQL could this be the reason for segmentation fault?
 [2016-07-19 14:05 UTC] andrey@php.net 
MariaDB might be an issue. I don't know. Keep in mind that mysqlnd supports officially only MySQL and not any forks.

I will try to get MariaDB up and running to test with it.

Best,
Andrey

I confirm a segfault with MariaDB 10.1.16 . Will have to check how it is incompatible with the MySQL client server protocol.
 [2016-07-22 20:03 UTC] andrey@php.net 
MySQL sends an error directly after the query is executed, as it should happen. MariaDB does send OK, meaning that there are fields and sends meta for 10 fields, then EOF (marking end of metadata) and only then it sends an error message. Such sending of errors is not common. It exists when we talk calling stored procedures because they can fail in the middle after some meta is sent.
 [2016-07-22 20:26 UTC] reyad dot attiyat at gmail dot com 
This segfault only happens in PHP 7.1 and not in previous versions of PHP. I understand that mysqlnd only supports the official MySQL implementation, but don't believe we should have a separate driver for MariaDB or other forks (like AWS Aurora). Do you think we should add a quirk/flag to the mysqlnd driver for MariaDB that would handle these errors correctly?
 [2016-07-22 20:42 UTC] andrey@php.net 
MariaDB bends the protocol and this is why this happened. I am preparing a fix for this. The crash happens because of a bug of mine of not initializing correctly callbacks for the error structure. Reporting an error after reporting that there is no error is very rare case, which I saw last time in 2007 (see http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=27876 :)
mysqlnd should not crash, that is for sure.
 [2016-07-22 20:55 UTC] andrey@php.net 
Here is an example of MariaDB. A test from the suite fails. Why? Because they changed a text message, which is not that weird, but they changed the ID of the error.
001+ int(2)
002+ int(1146)
003+ string(39) "Table 'mysql.table_stats' doesn't exist"
001- int(1)
002- int(1051)
003- %unicode|string%(%d) "Unknown table %snot_exists%s"

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Just pushed the fix to 7.1 and master
