    Description

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a TINYINT) ENGINE=ColumnStore;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (-1);
      SELECT LEFT('abc',a) FROM t1;
      

      +---------------+
      | LEFT('abc',a) |
      +---------------+
      | abc           |
      +---------------+
      

      Looks wrong. The expected result is:

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a TINYINT) ENGINE=InnoDB;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (-1);
      SELECT LEFT('abc',a) FROM t1;
      

      +---------------+
      | LEFT('abc',a) |
      +---------------+
      |               |
      +---------------+
      

      The same problem is repeatable with functions:

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a TINYINT) ENGINE=ColumnStore;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (-1);
      SELECT LEFT('abc',COALESCE(a,a)) FROM t1;
      

      +---------------------------+
      | LEFT('abc',COALESCE(a,a)) |
      +---------------------------+
      | abc                       |
      +---------------------------+
