    Description

      The JSON_KEY_VALUE() (in 11.2) , JSON_QUERY() and JSON_VALUE() function does not print a warning about syntax error if variable is combined with string.
      JSON_EXTRACT() does. So the behaviour is non consistent.

      11.1.0-dbg>set @json = '{"a":1, "b":2, "c" : 3}';
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.000 sec)
       
      11.1.0-dbg>select @json;
      +-------------------------+
      | @json                   |
      +-------------------------+
      | {"a":1, "b":2, "c" : 3} |
      +-------------------------+
      1 row in set (0.000 sec)
       
      11.1.0-dbg>select  JSON_KEY_VALUE('{"key1": @json}', '$.key1');
      +---------------------------------------------+
      | JSON_KEY_VALUE('{"key1": @json}', '$.key1') |
      +---------------------------------------------+
      | NULL                                        |
      +---------------------------------------------+
      1 row in set (0.001 sec)
       
      11.1.0-dbg>
      

      Expected syntax error message

      11.1.0-dbg>select  JSON_KEY_VALUE('{"key1": @json}', '$.key1');
      ERROR 4038 (HY000): Syntax error in JSON text in argument 1 to function 'JSON_KEY_VALUE' at position x
      11.1.0-dbg>
      

      JSON_KEY_VALUE function should also print syntax error if the curly braces are not properly closed

      11.1.0-dbg>SELECT JSON_KEY_VALUE('{"key1":{"a":1, "b":2}', '$.key1');
      +------------------------------------------------------+
      | JSON_KEY_VALUE('{"key1":{"a":1, "b":2}', '$.key1')   |
      +------------------------------------------------------+
      | [{"key": "a", "value": 1}, {"key": "b", "value": 2}] |
      +------------------------------------------------------+
      1 row in set (0.000 sec)
       
      11.1.0-dbg>
      

      in 10.4:

      MariaDB [test]> select json_extract('

      {"key1": @json}

      ', '$.key1');
      -------------------------------------------

      json_extract(' {"key1": @json}

      ', '$.key1')

      -------------------------------------------

      NULL

      -------------------------------------------
      1 row in set, 1 warning (0.001 sec)

      Warning (Code 4038): Syntax error in JSON text in argument 1 to function 'json_extract' at position 10
