1. Transformation of row IN subquery made the same as single value.
2. replace_where_subcondition() made working on several layers of OR/AND because it called on expression before fix_fields().
Singular Item_equal support added.
The problem was that during constant table substitution Item_equal become containing only one constant which was not supported internally.
Objects of the classes Item_func_isnull and Item_func_isnotnull
must have the flag sargable set to TRUE.
Set the value of the flag sargable only in constructors of the
classes inherited from Item_int_func.
The bug caused a memory overwrite in the function update_ref_and_keys()
It happened due to a wrong value of SELECT_LEX::cond_count. This value
historically was calculated by the fix_fields method. Now the logic of
calling this method became too complicated and, as a result, this value
is calculated not always correctly.
The patch changes the way how and when the values of SELECT_LEX::cond_count
and of SELECT_LEX::between_count are calculated. The new code does it just at
the beginning of update_ref_and_keys().
Other fix of maybe_null problem and revert of revno: 3608 "MDEV-3873 & MDEV-3876 & MDEV-3912 : Wrong result (extra rows) with ALL subquery from a MERGE view."
Analysis:
The cause of the valgrind warning was an attempt to evaluate a Field that was not yet read.
The reason was that on one hand Item_func_isnotnull was marked as constant by
Item_func_isnotnull::update_used_tables, and this allowed eval_const_cond() to be called.
On the other hand Item_func_isnotnull::val_int() evaluated its argument as if it was not
constant.
Solution:
The fix make sure that Item_func_isnotnull::val_int() doesn't evaluate its argument when
it is constant and cannot be NULL, because the result is known in this case.
This patch almost totally revised the patch for bug mdev-4177.
The latter had too many defects. In particular, it did not
propagate multiple equalities formed when merging a degenerate
disjunct into underlying AND formula.
- Modify the way Item_cond::fix_fields() and Item_cond::eval_not_null_tables()
calculate bitmap for Item_cond_or::not_null_tables():
if they see a "... OR inexpensive_const_false_item OR ..." then the item can
be ignored.
- Updated test results. There can be more warnings produced since parts of WHERE
are evaluated more times.
includes:
* remove some remnants of "Bug#14521864: MYSQL 5.1 TO 5.5 BUGS PARTITIONING"
* introduce LOCK_share, now LOCK_ha_data is strictly for engines
* rea_create_table() always creates .par file (even in "frm-only" mode)
* fix a 5.6 bug, temp file leak on dummy ALTER TABLE
Cleanup: remove TIME_FUZZY_DATE.
Introduce TIME_FUZZY_DATES which means "very fuzzy, the resulting
value is only used for comparison. It can be invalid date, fine, as long as it can be
compared".
Updated many tests results (they're better now).
