    Description

      Unique hash keys work fine on the entire LONGTEXT column:

      CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t3 (a LONGTEXT CHARACTER SET utf8, UNIQUE KEY(a) USING HASH);

      However, if I create an Unique hash key using a long prefix, it fails with an error:

      CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t3 (a LONGTEXT CHARACTER SET utf8, UNIQUE KEY(a(35000)) USING HASH);


      ERROR 4159 (42000): Specified key part was too long; max key part length is 65535 bytes

      The above error looks wrong.
