The fix is simple: enable subtotals in single-phase aggregation and
disable parallel processing when there are subtotals and aggregation is
single-phase.
Adds a special column which helps to differentiate data and rollups of
various depts and a simple logic to row aggregation to add processing of
subtotals.
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.
* 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* Fix ISO C++17 does not allow 'register' storage class specifier for outdated bison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
* Introduce multigeneration aggregation
* Do not save unused part of RGDatas to disk
* Add IO error explanation (strerror)
* Reduce memory usage while aggregating
* introduce in-memory generations to better memory utilization
* Try to limit the qty of buckets at a low limit
* Refactor disk aggregation a bit
* pass calculated hash into RowAggregation
* try to keep some RGData with free space in memory
* do not dump more than half of rowgroups to disk if generations are
allowed, instead start a new generation
* for each thread shift the first processed bucket at each iteration,
so the generations start more evenly
* Unify temp data location
* Explicitly create temp subdirectories

mcsconfig.h and my_config.h have the following
pre-processor definitions:
1. Conflicting definitions coming from the standard cmake definitions:
- PACKAGE
- PACKAGE_BUGREPORT
- PACKAGE_NAME
- PACKAGE_STRING
- PACKAGE_TARNAME
- PACKAGE_VERSION
- VERSION
2. Conflicting definitions of other kinds:
- HAVE_STRTOLL - this is a dirt in MariaDB headers.
Should be fixed in the server code. my_config.h erroneously
performs "#define HAVE_STRTOLL" instead of "#define HAVE_STRTOLL 1".
in some cases. The former is not CMake compatible style. The latter is.
3. Non-conflicting definitions:
Otherwise, mcsconfig.h and my_config.h should be mutually compatible,
because both are generated by cmake on the same host machine. So
they should have exactly equal definitions like "HAVE_XXX", "SIZEOF_XXX", etc.
Observations:
- It's OK to include both mcsconfig.h and my_config.h providing that we
suppress duplicate definition of the above conflicting types #1 and #2.
- There is no a need to suppress duplicate definitions mentioned in #3,
as they are compatible!
- my_sys.h and m_ctype.h must always follow a CMake configuation header,
either my_config.h or mcsconfig.h (or both).
They must never be included without any preceeding configuration header.
This change make sure that we resolve conflicts by:
- either disallowing inclusion of mcsconfig.h and my_config.h
at the same time
- or by hiding conflicting definitions #1 and #2
(with their later restoring).
- also, by making sure that my_sys.h and m_ctype.h always follow
a CMake configuration file.
Details:
- idb_mysql.h can now only be included only after my_config.h
An attempt to use idb_mysql.h with mcsconfig.h instead of
my_config.h is caught by the "#error" preprocessor directive.
- mariadb_my_sys.h can now be only included after mcsconfig.h.
An attempt to use mariadb_my_sys.h without mcscofig.h
(e.g. with my_config.h) is also caught by "#error".
- collation.h now can now be included in two ways.
It now has the following effective structure:
#if defined(PREFER_MY_CONFIG_H) && defined(MY_CONFIG_H)
// Remember current conflicting definitions on the preprocessor stack
// Undefine current conflicting definitions
#endif
#include "mcsconfig.h"
#include "m_ctype.h"
#if defined(PREFER_MY_CONFIG_H) && defined(MY_CONFIG_H)
# Restore conflicting definitions from the preprocessor stack
#endif
and can be included as follows:
a. using only mcsconfig.h as a configuration header:
// my_config.h must not be included so far
#include "collation.h"
b. using my_config.h as the first included configuration file:
#define PREFER_MY_CONFIG_H // Force conflict resolution
#include "my_config.h" // can be included directly or indirectly
...
#include "collation.h"
Other changes:
- Adding helper header files
utils/common/mcsconfig_conflicting_defs_remember.h
utils/common/mcsconfig_conflicting_defs_restore.h
utils/common/mcsconfig_conflicting_defs_undef.h
to perform conflict resolution easier.
- Removing `#include "collation.h"` from a number of files,
as it's automatically included from rowgroup.h.
- Removing redundant `#include "utils_utf8.h"`.
This change is not directly related to the problem being fixed,
but it's nice to remove redundant directives for both collation.h
and utils_utf8.h from all the files that do not really need them.
(this change could probably have gone as a separate commit)
- Changing my_init() to MY_INIT(argv[0]) in the MCS services sources.
After the fix of the complitation failure it appeared that ColumnStore
services compiled with the debug build crash due to recent changes in
safemalloc. The crash happened in strcmp() with `my_progname` as an argument
(where my_progname is a mysys global variable). This problem should
probably be fixed on the server side as well to avoid passing NULL.
But, the majority of MariaDB executable programs also use MY_INIT(argv[0])
rather than my_init(). So let's make MCS do like the other programs do.
1. Add wide decimal support to AggregateColumn::evaluate
and TreeNode::getDecimalVal().
2. Use the pm aggregate attributes to determine um aggregate
attributes in TupleAggregateStep::prep2PhasesAggregate.
1. In TupleAggregateStep::configDeliveredRowGroup(), use
jobInfo.projectionCols instead of jobInfo.nonConstCols
for setting scale and precision if the source column is
wide decimal.
2. Tighten rules for wide decimal processing. Specifically:
a. Replace (precision > INT64MAXPRECISION) checks with
(precision > INT64MAXPRECISION && precision <= INT128MAXPRECISION)
b. At places where (colWidth == MAXDECIMALWIDTH) is not enough to
determine if a column is wide decimal or not, also add a check on
type being DECIMAL/UDECIMAL.
1. Perform type promotion to wide decimal if the result
of an arithmetic operation has a precision > 18.
2. Only set the decimal width of an arithmetic operation to wide
if both the LHS and RHS of the operation are decimal types.
TupleAggregateStep class method and buildAggregateColumn() now properly set result data type.
doSum() now handles DECIMAL(38) in approprate manner.
Low-level null related methods for new binary-based datatypes now handles magic values for
binary-based DT.
