optimize_straight_join and best_extension_by_limited_search()
use 0.001 to make choice between plans with identical cost deterministic.
Use COST_EPS instead of 0.001, like it's done in newer versions.
Variant for 11.2+:
In recompute_join_cost_with_limit(), do not subtract the cost of checking
the WHERE:
pos->records_read* WHERE_COST_THD(join->thd)
It is already included in pos->read_time.
Also added comments about difference between this fix and the pre-11.2
variant.
Stop skipping const items when selecting but skip them when storing
their results to spider row to avoid storing in mismatching temporary
table fields.
Skip auxiliary fields in SELECTing, and do not store
the (non-existing) results to the corresponding temporary table
accordingly.
When there are BOTH auxiliary fields AND const items in the auxiliary
field items, do not use the spider GBH. This is a rare occasion if it
happens at all and not worth the added complexity to cover it.
Use the original item (item_ptr) in constructing GROUP BY and ORDER
BY, which also means using item->name instead of field->field_name as
aliases in constructing SELECT items. This fixes spurious regressions
caused by the above changes in some tests using ORDER BY, such as
mdev_24517.test. As a by-product, this also fixes MDEV-29546.
Therefore we update mdev_29008.test to include the MDEV-29546 case.
Extend derived table syntax to support column name assignment.
(subquery expression) [as|=] ident [comma separated column name list].
Prior to this patch, the optional comma separated column name list is
not supported.
Processing within the unit of the subquery expression will use
original column names, outside the unit will use the new names.
For example, in the query
select a1, a2 from
(select c1, c2, c3 from t1 where c2 > 0) as dt (a1, a2, a3)
where a2 > 10;
we see the second column of the derived table dt being used both within,
(where c2 > 0), and outside, (where a2 > 10), the specification.
Both conditions apply to t1.c2.
When multiple unit preparations are required, such as when being used within
a prepared statement or procedure, original column names are needed for
correct resolution. Original names are reset within mysql_derived_reinit().
Item_holder items, used for result tables in both TVC and union preparations
are renamed before use within st_select_lex_unit::prepare().
During wildcard expansion, if column names are present, items names are
set directly after creation.

Field_blob::store() has special code for GROUP_CONCAT temporary table
(to store blob values in Blob_mem_storage - this prevents them
from being freed/overwritten when a next row is read).
Field_geom and Field_blob_compressed inherit from Field_blob but they
have their own ::store() method without this special Blob_mem_storage
support.
Considering that non-grouping CONCAT() of such fields converts
them to plain BLOB, let's do the same for GROUP_CONCAT. To do it,
Item_func_group_concat::setup will signal that it's creating
a temporary table for GROUP_CONCAT, and Field_blog::make_new_field()
override will create base Field_blob when under group concat.
Search conditions were evaluated using val_int(), which was wrong.
Fixing the code to use val_bool() instead.
Details:
- Adding a new item_base_t::IS_COND flag which marks Items used
as <search condition> in WHERE, HAVING, JOIN ON, CASE WHEN clauses.
The flag is at the parse time.
These expressions must be evaluated using val_bool() rather than val_int().
Note, the optimizer creates more Items which are used as search conditions.
Most of these items are not marked with IS_COND yet. This is OK for now,
but eventually these Items can also be fixed to have the flag.
- Adding a method Item::is_cond() which tests if the Item has the IS_COND flag.
- Implementing Item_cache_bool. It evaluates the cached expression using
val_bool() rather than val_int().
Overriding Type_handler_bool::Item_get_cache() to create Item_cache_bool.
- Implementing Item::save_bool_in_field(). It uses val_bool() rather than
val_int() to evaluate the expression.
- Implementing Type_handler_bool::Item_save_in_field()
using Item::save_bool_in_field().
- Fixing all Item_bool_func descendants to implement a virtual val_bool()
rather than a virtual val_int().
- To find places where val_int() should be fixed to val_bool(), a few
DBUG_ASSERT(!is_cond()) where added into val_int() implementations
of selected (most frequent) classes:
Item_field
Item_str_func
Item_datefunc
Item_timefunc
Item_datetimefunc
Item_cache_bool
Item_bool_func
Item_func_hybrid_field_type
Item_basic_constant descendants
- Fixing all places where DBUG_ASSERT() happened during an "mtr" run
to use val_bool() instead of val_int().
A call to
dbug_print_join_prefix(join_positions, idx, s)
returns a const char* ponter to string with current join prefix,
including the table being added to it.
(Variant 4, with @@optimizer_adjust_secondary_key_costs, reuse in two
places, and conditions are replaced with equivalent simpler forms in two more)
In best_access_path(), ReuseRangeEstimateForRef-3, the check
for whether
"all used key_part_i used key_part_i=const"
was incorrect: it may produced a "NO" answer for cases when we
had:
key_part1= const // some key parts are usable
key_part2= value_not_in_join_prefix //present but unusable
key_part3= non_const_value // unusable due to gap in key parts.
This caused the optimizer to fail to apply ReuseRangeEstimateForRef
heuristics. The consequence is poor query plan choice when the index
in question has very skewed data distribution.
The fix is enabled if its @@optimizer_adjust_secondary_key_costs flag
is set.
The memory leak happened on second execution of a prepared statement
that runs UPDATE statement with correlated subquery in right hand side of
the SET clause. In this case, invocation of the method
table->stat_records()
could return the zero value that results in going into the 'if' branch
that handles impossible where condition. The issue is that this condition
branch missed saving of leaf tables that has to be performed as first
condition optimization activity. Later the PS statement memory root
is marked as read only on finishing first time execution of the prepared
statement. Next time the same statement is executed it hits the assertion
on attempt to allocate a memory on the PS memory root marked as read only.
This memory allocation takes place by the sequence of the following
invocations:
Prepared_statement::execute
mysql_execute_command
Sql_cmd_dml::execute
Sql_cmd_update::execute_inner
Sql_cmd_update::update_single_table
st_select_lex::save_leaf_tables
List<TABLE_LIST>::push_back
To fix the issue, add the flag SELECT_LEX::leaf_tables_saved to control
whether the method SELECT_LEX::save_leaf_tables() has to be called or
it has been already invoked and no more invocation required.
Similar issue could take place on running the DELETE statement with
the LIMIT clause in PS/SP mode. The reason of memory leak is the same as for
UPDATE case and be fixed in the same way.
(Variant 2b: call greedy_search() twice, correct handling for limited
search_depth)
Modify the join optimizer to specifically try to produce join orders that
can short-cut their execution for ORDER BY..LIMIT clause.
The optimization is controlled by @@optimizer_join_limit_pref_ratio.
Default value 0 means don't construct short-cutting join orders.
Other value means construct short-cutting join order, and prefer it only
if it promises speedup of more than #value times.
In Optimizer Trace, look for these names:
* join_limit_shortcut_is_applicable
* join_limit_shortcut_plan_search
* join_limit_shortcut_choice
Discovered this while working on MDEV-34720: test_if_cheaper_ordering()
uses rec_per_key, while the original estimate for the access method
is produced in best_access_path() by using actual_rec_per_key().
Make test_if_cheaper_ordering() also use actual_rec_per_key().
Also make several getter function "const" to make this compile.
Also adjusted the testcase to handle this (the change backported from
11.0)
Before this patch the crash occured when a single row dataset is used and
Item::remove_eq_conds() is called for HAVING. This function is not supposed
to be called after the elimination of multiple equalities.
To fix this problem instead of Item::remove_eq_conds() Item::val_int() is
used. In this case the optimizer tries to evaluate the condition for the
single row dataset and discovers impossible HAVING immediately. So, the
execution phase is skipped.

New runtime diagnostic introduced with MDEV-34490 has detected
that `Item_int_with_ref` incorrectly returns an instance of its ancestor
class `Item_int`. This commit fixes that.
In addition, this commit reverts a part of the diagnostic related
to `clone_item()` checks. As it turned out, `clone_item()` is not required
to return an object of the same class as the cloned one. For example,
look at `Item_param::clone_item()`: it can return objects of `Item_null`,
`Item_int`, `Item_string`, etc, depending on the object state.
So the runtime type diagnostic is not applicable to `clone_item()` and
is disabled with this commit.
As the similar diagnostic failures are expected to appear again
in the future, this commit introduces a new test file in the main suite:
item_types.test, and new test cases may be added to this file
