This patch improves handling of NULLs in textual fields in ColumnStore.
Previously empty strings were considered NULLs and it could be a problem
if data scheme allows for empty strings. It was also one of major
reasons of behavior difference between ColumnStore and other engines in
MariaDB family.
Also, this patch fixes some other bugs and incorrect behavior, for
example, incorrect comparison for "column <= ''" which evaluates to
constant True for all purposes before this patch.
* more build dependencies
* fix for cmake < 3.11
It cannot do ADD_LIBRARY(... ALIAS ...) on IMPORTED targets
* another fix for cmake 3.10.2
It doesn't know about CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=20,
let's add the correct flag manually
* gcc 8 on aarch64
utils/common/simd_arm.h:241:16: error: need ‘typename’ before ‘simd::TypeToVecWrapperType<T>::WrapperType’ because ‘simd::TypeToVecWrapperType<T>’ is a dependent scope
* MCOL-5092 Ensure column width is correct for datatype
Change MODA return type to STRING
Modify MODA to handle every numeric type
* MCOL-5162 MODA to support char and varchar with collation support
Fixes to the aggregate bit functions
When we fixed the storage sign issue for MCOL-5092, it uncovered a problem in the bit aggregates (bit_and, bit_or and bit_xor). These aggregates should always return UBIGINT, but they relied on the type of the argument column, which gave bad results.
* Fix clang warnings
* Remove vim tab guides
* initialize variables
* 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length
* Fix ISO C++17 does not allow 'register' storage class specifier for outdated bison
* chars are unsigned on ARM, having if (ival < 0) always false
* chars are unsigned by default on ARM and comparison with -1 if always true
WF::percentile runtime threw an exception b/c of wrong DT deduced from its argument
Replaced literals with constants
Tought WF_sum_avg::checkSumLimit to use refs instead of values
Rename packages to MariaDB-columnstore-engine, MariaDB-columnstore-libs
and MariaDB-columnstore-platform.
Also add the "columnstore-" prefix the the components so that MariaDB's
packaging system understands then and add a line to include them in
MariaDB's packaging.
In addition
* Fix S3 building for dist source build
* Fix Debian 10 dependency issue
* Fix git handling for dist builds
* Add support for MariaDB's RPM building
* Use MariaDB's PCRE and readline
* Removes a few dead files
* Fix Boost noncopyable includes
ColumnStore now uses standard bin/lib paths for pretty much everything.
Data path is now hard-coded to /var/lib/columnstore.
This patch also:
* Removes v1 decompression
* Removes a bunch of unneeded files
* Removes COLUMNSTORE_INSTALL_DIR / $INSTALLDIR
* Makes my.cnf.d work for all platforms (MCOL-3558)
* Changes configcpp to use recursive mutex (fixes possible config write deadlock)
* Fixes MCOL-3599 Fix regr functions, The library was installed in the wrong location
* Fixes a bunch of Ubuntu packaging issues
* Changes the binary names of several of the executables so as not to
clash with potential executables from other packages
