When a query does implicit grouping and join operation produces an empty
result set, a NULL-complemented row combination is generated.
However, constant table fields still show non-NULL values.
What happens in the is that end_send_group() is called with a
const row but without any rows matching the WHERE clause.
This last part is shown by 'join->first_record' not being set.
This causes item->no_rows_in_result() to be called for all items to reset
all sum functions to their initial state. However fields are not set
to NULL.
The used fix is to produce NULL-complemented records for constant tables
as well. Also, reset the constant table's records back in case we're
in a subquery which may get re-executed.
An alternative fix would have item->no_rows_in_result() also work
with Item_field objects.
There is some other issues with the code:
- join->no_rows_in_result_called is used but never set.
- Tables that are used with group functions are not properly marked as
maybe_null, which is required if the table rows should be regarded as
null-complemented (not existing).
- The code that tries to detect if mixed_implicit_grouping should be set
didn't take into account all usage of fields and sum functions.
- Item_func::restore_to_before_no_rows_in_result() called the wrong
function.
- join->clear() does not use a table_map argument to clear_tables(),
which caused it to ignore constant tables.
- unclear_tables() does not correctly restore status to what is
was before clear_tables().
Main bug fix was to always use a table_map argument to clear_tables() and
always use join->clear() and clear_tables() together with unclear_tables().
Other fixes:
- Fixed Item_func::restore_to_before_no_rows_in_result()
- Set 'join->no_rows_in_result_called' when no_rows_in_result_set()
is called.
- Removed not used argument from setup_end_select_func().
- More code comments
- Ensure that end_send_group() modifies the same fields as are in the
result set.
- Changed return_zero_rows() to use pointers instead of references,
similar to the rest of the code.

The problem was trying to access JOIN_TAB::select which is set to NULL
when using the filesort. The correct way is accessing either
JOIN_TAB::select or JOIN_TAB::filesort->select depending on whether
the filesort is used.
This commit introduces member function JOIN_TAB::get_sql_select()
encapsulating that check so the code duplication is eliminated.
The new condition (s->table->quick_keys.is_set(best_key->key))
was added to best_access_path() to eliminate a Valgrind error.
The cause of that error was using TRASH_ALLOC(quick_key_parts)
instead of bzero(quick_key_parts); hence, accessing
s->table->quick_key_parts[best_key->key]) without prior checking
for quick_keys.is_set() might have caused reading "dirty" memory
The problem was that join_buffer_size conflicted with
join_buffer_space_limit, which caused the query to be run without join
buffer. However this caused wrong results as the optimizer assumed
that hash+join buffer would ensure that the equi-join condition
would be satisfied, and didn't check it itself.
Fixed by not using join_buffer_space_limit when
optimize_join_buffer_size=off. This matches the documentation at
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/block-based-join-algorithms
Other things:
- Removed not used variable JOIN_TAB::join_buffer_size_limit
- Give an error if we cannot allocate a join buffer. This can
only happen if the join_buffer variables are wrongly configured or
we are running out of memory.
In the future, instead of returning an error, we could properly
convert the query plan that uses BNL-H join into one that doesn't
use join buffering:
make sure the equi-join condition is checked where appropriate.

This patch optimizes the number of refills for the lateral derived table
to which a materialized derived table subject to split optimization is
is converted. This optimized number of refills is now considered as the
expected number of refills of the materialized derived table when searching
for the best possible splitting of the table.

In block-nl-join, add:
- r_loops - this shows how many incoming record combinations this
query plan node had.
- r_effective_rows - this shows the average number of matching rows
that this table had for each incoming record combination. This is
comparable with r_rows in non-blocked access methods.
For BNL-joins, it is always equal to
$.table.r_rows * $.table.r_filtered
For BNL-H joins the value cannot be computed from other values

This patch is the result of running
run-clang-tidy -fix -header-filter=.* -checks='-*,modernize-use-equals-default' .
Code style changes have been done on top. The result of this change
leads to the following improvements:
1. Binary size reduction.
* For a -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release build, the binary size is reduced by
~400kb.
* A raw -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release reduces the binary size by ~1.4kb.
2. Compiler can better understand the intent of the code, thus it leads
to more optimization possibilities. Additionally it enabled detecting
unused variables that had an empty default constructor but not marked
so explicitly.
Particular change required following this patch in sql/opt_range.cc
result_keys, an unused template class Bitmap now correctly issues
unused variable warnings.
Setting Bitmap template class constructor to default allows the compiler
to identify that there are no side-effects when instantiating the class.
Previously the compiler could not issue the warning as it assumed Bitmap
class (being a template) would not be performing a NO-OP for its default
constructor. This prevented the "unused variable warning".
The problem was that federated engine does not support comparable rowids
which was not taken into account by semijoin code.
Fixed by checking that we don't use semijoin with tables that does not
support comparable rowids.
Other things:
- Fixed some typos in the code comments
The cause of regression was handling for ROWNUM() function.
For queries like
SELECT ROWNUM() FROM ... ORDER BY ...
ROWNUM() should be computed before the ORDER BY.
The computation was moved to be before the ORDER BY for any entries in
the select list that had RAND_TABLE_BIT set.
This had a negative impact on queries in form:
SELECT sp_func() FROM t1 ORDER BY ... LIMIT n
where sp_func() is NOT declared as DETERMINISTIC (and so has
RAND_TABLE_BIT set).
The fix is to require evaluation for sorting only for the ROWNUM()
function. Functions that just have RAND_TABLE_BIT() can be computed
after ORDER BY ... LIMIT is applied.
(think about a possible index that satisfies the ORDER BY clause. In
that case, the the rows would be read in the needed order and we would
stop after reading LIMIT rows, achieving the same effect).
