Variables added:
- optimizer_index_block_copy_cost
- optimizer_key_copy_cost
- optimizer_key_next_find_cost
- optimizer_key_compare_cost
- optimizer_row_copy_cost
- optimizer_where_compare_cost
Some rename of defines was done to make the internal defines similar to
the visible ones:
TIME_FOR_COMPARE -> WHERE_COST; WHERE_COST was also "inverted" to be
a number between 0 and 1 that is multiply with accepted records
(similar to other optimizer variables).
TIME_FOR_COMPARE_IDX -> KEY_COMPARE_COST. This is also inverted,
similar to TIME_FOR_COMPARE.
TIME_FOR_COMPARE_ROWID -> ROWID_COMPARE_COST. This is also inverted,
similar to TIME_FOR_COMPARE.
All default costs are identical to what they where before this patch.
Other things:
- Compare factor in get_merge_buffers_cost() was inverted.
- Changed namespace to static in filesort_utils.cc
Before this patch, when calculating the cost of fetching and using a
row/key from the engine, we took into account the cost of finding a
row or key from the engine, but did not consistently take into account
index only accessed, clustered key or covered keys for all access
paths.
The cost of the WHERE clause (TIME_FOR_COMPARE) was not consistently
considered in best_access_path(). TIME_FOR_COMPARE was used in
calculation in other places, like greedy_search(), but was in some
cases (like scans) done an a different number of rows than was
accessed.
The cost calculation of row and index scans didn't take into account
the number of rows that where accessed, only the number of accepted
rows.
When using a filter, the cost of index_only_reads and cost of
accessing and disregarding 'filtered rows' where not taken into
account, which made filters cost less than there actually where.
To remedy the above, the following key & row fetch related costs
has been added:
- The cost of fetching and using a row is now split into different costs:
- key + Row fetch cost (as before) but multiplied with the variable
'optimizer_cache_cost' (default to 0.5). This allows the user to
tell the optimizer the likehood of finding the key and row in the
engine cache.
- ROW_COPY_COST, The cost copying a row from the engine to the
sql layer or creating a row from the join_cache to the record
buffer. Mostly affects table scan costs.
- ROW_LOOKUP_COST, the cost of fetching a row by rowid.
- KEY_COPY_COST the cost of finding the next key and copying it from
the engine to the SQL layer. This is used when we calculate the cost
index only reads. It makes index scans more expensive than before if
they cover a lot of rows. (main.index_merge_myisam)
- KEY_LOOKUP_COST, the cost of finding the first key in a range.
This replaces the old define IDX_LOOKUP_COST, but with a higher cost.
- KEY_NEXT_FIND_COST, the cost of finding the next key (and rowid).
when doing a index scan and comparing the rowid to the filter.
Before this cost was assumed to be 0.
All of the above constants/variables are now tuned to be somewhat in
proportion of executing complexity to each other. There is tuning
need for these in the future, but that can wait until the above are
made user variables as that will make tuning much easier.
To make the usage of the above easy, there are new (not virtual)
cost calclation functions in handler:
- ha_read_time(), like read_time(), but take optimizer_cache_cost into
account.
- ha_read_and_copy_time(), like ha_read_time() but take into account
ROW_COPY_TIME
- ha_read_and_compare_time(), like ha_read_and_copy_time() but take
TIME_FOR_COMPARE into account.
- ha_rnd_pos_time(). Read row with row id, taking ROW_COPY_COST
into account. This is used with filesort where we don't need
to execute the WHERE clause again.
- ha_keyread_time(), like keyread_time() but take
optimizer_cache_cost into account.
- ha_keyread_and_copy_time(), like ha_keyread_time(), but add
KEY_COPY_COST.
- ha_key_scan_time(), like key_scan_time() but take
optimizer_cache_cost nto account.
- ha_key_scan_and_compare_time(), like ha_key_scan_time(), but add
KEY_COPY_COST & TIME_FOR_COMPARE.
I also added some setup costs for doing different types of scans and
creating temporary tables (on disk and in memory). This encourages
the optimizer to not use these for simple 'a few row' lookups if
there are adequate key lookup strategies.
- TABLE_SCAN_SETUP_COST, cost of starting a table scan.
- INDEX_SCAN_SETUP_COST, cost of starting an index scan.
- HEAP_TEMPTABLE_CREATE_COST, cost of creating in memory
temporary table.
- DISK_TEMPTABLE_CREATE_COST, cost of creating an on disk temporary
table.
When calculating cost of fetching ranges, we had a cost of
IDX_LOOKUP_COST (0.125) for doing a key div for a new range. This is
now replaced with 'io_cost * KEY_LOOKUP_COST (1.0) *
optimizer_cache_cost', which matches the cost we use for 'ref' and
other key lookups. The effect is that the cost is now a bit higher
when we have many ranges for a key.
Allmost all calculation with TIME_FOR_COMPARE is now done in
best_access_path(). 'JOIN::read_time' now includes the full
cost for finding the rows in the table.
In the result files, many of the changes are now again close to what
they where before the "Update cost for hash and cached joins" commit,
as that commit didn't fix the filter cost (too complex to do
everything in one commit).
The above changes showed a lot of a lot of inconsistencies in
optimizer cost calculation. The main objective with the other changes
was to do calculation as similar (and accurate) as possible and to make
different plans more comparable.
Detailed list of changes:
- Calculate index_only_cost consistently and correctly for all scan
and ref accesses. The row fetch_cost and index_only_cost now
takes into account clustered keys, covered keys and index
only accesses.
- cost_for_index_read now returns both full cost and index_only_cost
- Fixed cost calculation of get_sweep_read_cost() to match other
similar costs. This is bases on the assumption that data is more
often stored on SSD than a hard disk.
- Replaced constant 2.0 with new define TABLE_SCAN_SETUP_COST.
- Some scan cost estimates did not take into account
TIME_FOR_COMPARE. Now all scan costs takes this into
account. (main.show_explain)
- Added session variable optimizer_cache_hit_ratio (default 50%). By
adjusting this on can reduce or increase the cost of index or direct
record lookups. The effect of the default is that key lookups is now
a bit cheaper than before. See usage of 'optimizer_cache_cost' in
handler.h.
- JOIN_TAB::scan_time() did not take into account index only scans,
which produced a wrong cost when index scan was used. Changed
JOIN_TAB:::scan_time() to take into consideration clustered and
covered keys. The values are now cached and we only have to call
this function once. Other calls are changed to use the cached
values. Function renamed to JOIN_TAB::estimate_scan_time().
- Fixed that most index cost calculations are done the same way and
more close to 'range' calculations. The cost is now lower than
before for small data sets and higher for large data sets as we take
into account how many keys are read (main.opt_trace_selectivity,
main.limit_rows_examined).
- Ensured that index_scan_cost() ==
range(scan_of_all_rows_in_table_using_one_range) +
MULTI_RANGE_READ_INFO_CONST. One effect of this is that if there
is choice of doing a full index scan and a range-index scan over
almost the whole table then index scan will be preferred (no
range-read setup cost). (innodb.innodb, main.show_explain,
main.range)
- Fixed the EQ_REF and REF takes into account clustered and covered
keys. This changes some plans to use covered or clustered indexes
as these are much cheaper. (main.subselect_mat_cost,
main.state_tables_innodb, main.limit_rows_examined)
- Rowid filter setup cost and filter compare cost now takes into
account fetching and checking the rowid (KEY_NEXT_FIND_COST).
(main.partition_pruning heap.heap_btree main.log_state)
- Added KEY_NEXT_FIND_COST to
Range_rowid_filter_cost_info::lookup_cost to account of the time
to find and check the next key value against the container
- Introduced ha_keyread_time(rows) that takes into account finding
the next row and copying the key value to 'record'
(KEY_COPY_COST).
- Introduced ha_key_scan_time() for calculating an index scan over
all rows.
- Added IDX_LOOKUP_COST to keyread_time() as a startup cost.
- Added index_only_fetch_cost() as a convenience function to
OPT_RANGE.
- keyread_time() cost is slightly reduced to prefer shorter keys.
(main.index_merge_myisam)
- All of the above caused some index_merge combinations to be
rejected because of cost (main.index_intersect). In some cases
'ref' where replaced with index_merge because of the low
cost calculation of get_sweep_read_cost().
- Some index usage moved from PRIMARY to a covering index.
(main.subselect_innodb)
- Changed cost calculation of filter to take KEY_LOOKUP_COST and
TIME_FOR_COMPARE into account. See sql_select.cc::apply_filter().
filter parameters and costs are now written to optimizer_trace.
- Don't use matchings_records_in_range() to try to estimate the number
of filtered rows for ranges. The reason is that we want to ensure
that 'range' is calculated similar to 'ref'. There is also more work
needed to calculate the selectivity when using ranges and ranges and
filtering. This causes filtering column in EXPLAIN EXTENDED to be
100.00 for some cases where range cannot use filtering.
(main.rowid_filter)
- Introduced ha_scan_time() that takes into account the CPU cost of
finding the next row and copying the row from the engine to
'record'. This causes costs of table scan to slightly increase and
some test to changed their plan from ALL to RANGE or ALL to ref.
(innodb.innodb_mysql, main.select_pkeycache)
In a few cases where scan time of very small tables have lower cost
than a ref or range, things changed from ref/range to ALL.
(main.myisam, main.func_group, main.limit_rows_examined,
main.subselect2)
- Introduced ha_scan_and_compare_time() which is like ha_scan_time()
but also adds the cost of the where clause (TIME_FOR_COMPARE).
- Added small cost for creating temporary table for
materialization. This causes some very small tables to use scan
instead of materialization.
- Added checking of the WHERE clause (TIME_FOR_COMPARE) of the
accepted rows to ROR costs in get_best_ror_intersect()
- Removed '- 0.001' from 'join->best_read' and optimize_straight_join()
to ensure that the 'Last_query_cost' status variable contains the
same value as the one that was calculated by the optimizer.
- Take avg_io_cost() into account in handler::keyread_time() and
handler::read_time(). This should have no effect as it's 1.0 by
default, except for heap that overrides these functions.
- Some 'ref_or_null' accesses changed to 'range' because of cost
adjustments (main.order_by)
- Added scan type "scan_with_join_cache" for optimizer_trace. This is
just to show in the trace what kind of scan was used.
- When using 'scan_with_join_cache' take into account number of
preceding tables (as have to restore all fields for all previous
table combination when checking the where clause)
The new cost added is:
(row_combinations * ROW_COPY_COST * number_of_cached_tables).
This increases the cost of join buffering in proportion of the
number of tables in the join buffer. One effect is that full scans
are now done earlier as the cost is then smaller.
(main.join_outer_innodb, main.greedy_optimizer)
- Removed the usage of 'worst_seeks' in cost_for_index_read as it
caused wrong plans to be created; It prefered JT_EQ_REF even if it
would be much more expensive than a full table scan. A related
issue was that worst_seeks only applied to full lookup, not to
clustered or index only lookups, which is not consistent. This
caused some plans to use index scan instead of eq_ref (main.union)
- Changed federated block size from 4096 to 1500, which is the
typical size of an IO packet.
- Added costs for reading rows to Federated. Needed as there is no
caching of rows in the federated engine.
- Added ha_innobase::rnd_pos_time() cost function.
- A lot of extra things added to optimizer trace
- More costs, especially for materialization and index_merge.
- Make lables more uniform
- Fixed a lot of minor bugs
- Added 'trace_started()' around a lot of trace blocks.
- When calculating ORDER BY with LIMIT cost for using an index
the cost did not take into account the number of row retrivals
that has to be done or the cost of comparing the rows with the
WHERE clause. The cost calculated would be just a fraction of
the real cost. Now we calculate the cost as we do for ranges
and 'ref'.
- 'Using index for group-by' is used a bit more than before as
now take into account the WHERE clause cost when comparing
with 'ref' and prefer the method with fewer row combinations.
(main.group_min_max).
Bugs fixed:
- Fixed that we don't calculate TIME_FOR_COMPARE twice for some plans,
like in optimize_straight_join() and greedy_search()
- Fixed bug in save_explain_data where we could test for the wrong
index when displaying 'Using index'. This caused some old plans to
show 'Using index'. (main.subselect_innodb, main.subselect2)
- Fixed bug in get_best_ror_intersect() where 'min_cost' was not
updated, and the cost we compared with was not the one that was
used.
- Fixed very wrong cost calculation for priority queues in
check_if_pq_applicable(). (main.order_by now correctly uses priority
queue)
- When calculating cost of EQ_REF or REF, we added the cost of
comparing the WHERE clause with the found rows, not all row
combinations. This made ref and eq_ref to be regarded way to cheap
compared to other access methods.
- FORCE INDEX cost calculation didn't take into account clustered or
covered indexes.
- JT_EQ_REF cost was estimated as avg_io_cost(), which is half the
cost of a JT_REF key. This may be true for InnoDB primary key, but
not for other unique keys or other engines. Now we use handler
function to calculate the cost, which allows us to handle
consistently clustered, covered keys and not covered keys.
- ha_start_keyread() didn't call extra_opt() if keyread was already
enabled but still changed the 'keyread' variable (which is wrong).
Fixed by not doing anything if keyread is already enabled.
- multi_range_read_info_cost() didn't take into account io_cost when
calculating the cost of ranges.
- fix_semijoin_strategies_for_picked_join_order() used the wrong
record_count when calling best_access_path() for SJ_OPT_FIRST_MATCH
and SJ_OPT_LOOSE_SCAN.
- Hash joins didn't provide correct best_cost to the upper level, which
means that the cost for hash_joins more expensive than calculated
in best_access_path (a difference of 10x * TIME_OF_COMPARE).
This is fixed in the new code thanks to that we now include
TIME_OF_COMPARE cost in 'read_time'.
Other things:
- Added some 'if (thd->trace_started())' to speed up code
- Removed not used function Cost_estimate::is_zero()
- Simplified testing of HA_POS_ERROR in get_best_ror_intersect().
(No cost changes)
- Moved ha_start_keyread() from join_read_const_table() to join_read_const()
to enable keyread for all types of JT_CONST tables.
- Made a few very short functions inline in handler.h
Notes:
- In main.rowid_filter the join order of order and lineitem is swapped.
This is because the cost of doing a range fetch of lineitem(98 rows) is
almost as big as the whole join of order,lineitem. The filtering will
also ensure that we only have to do very small key fetches of the rows
in lineitem.
- main.index_merge_myisam had a few changes where we are now using
less keys for index_merge. This is because index scans are now more
expensive than before.
- handler->optimizer_cache_cost is updated in ha_external_lock().
This ensures that it is up to date per statements.
Not an optimal solution (for locked tables), but should be ok for now.
- 'DELETE FROM t1 WHERE t1.a > 0 ORDER BY t1.a' does not take cost of
filesort into consideration when table scan is chosen.
(main.myisam_explain_non_select_all)
- perfschema.table_aggregate_global_* has changed because an update
on a table with 1 row will now use table scan instead of key lookup.
TODO in upcomming commits:
- Fix selectivity calculation for ranges with and without filtering and
when there is a ref access but scan is chosen.
For this we have to store the lowest known value for
'accepted_records' in the OPT_RANGE structure.
- Change that records_read does not include filtered rows.
- test_if_cheaper_ordering() needs to be updated to properly calculate
costs. This will fix tests like main.order_by_innodb,
main.single_delete_update
- Extend get_range_limit_read_cost() to take into considering
cost_for_index_read() if there where no quick keys. This will reduce
the computed cost for ORDER BY with LIMIT in some cases.
(main.innodb_ext_key)
- Fix that we take into account selectivity when counting the number
of rows we have to read when considering using a index table scan to
resolve ORDER BY.
- Add new calculation for rnd_pos_time() where we take into account the
benefit of reading multiple rows from the same page.
- Before any multiple add() calls, always use (if trace_started()).
- Add unlikely() around all tests of trace_started().
- Change trace.add(); trace.add(); to trace.add().add();
- When trace.add() goes over several line, use the following formating:
trace.
add(xxx).
add(yyy).
add(zzz);
This format was choosen after a discussion between Sergei Petrunia and
me as it looks similar indepedent if 'trace' is an object or a
pointer. It also more suitable for an editors auto-indentation.
Other things:
Added DBUG_ASSERT(thd->trace_started()) to a few functions that should
only be called if trace is enabled.
"use_roworder_index_merge: true" changed to "use_sort_index_merge: false"
As the original output was often not correct.
Also fixed the related 'cause' to be correct.
In best_access_path() print the cost (and number of rows) before
checking if it the plan should be used. This removes the need to print
the cost in two places.
Changed a few "read_time" tags to "cost".
- Updated comments
- Added some extra DEBUG
- Indentation changes and break long lines
- Trivial code changes like:
- Combining 2 statements in one
- Reorder DBUG lines
- Use a variable to store a pointer that is used multiple times
- Moved declaration of variables to start of loop/function
- Removed dead or commented code
- Removed wrong DBUG_EXECUTE code in best_extension_by_limited_search()
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
Replaced Cost_estimate prefix_cost with a double as prefix_cost was
only used to store and retrive total prefix cost.
This also speeds up things (a bit) as don't have to call
Cost_estimate::total_cost() for every access to the prefix_cost.
Sizeof POSITION decreased from 304 to 256.
optimize_semi_joins() calls update_sj_state() to update semi-join
optimization state in the JOIN class.
greedy_search() algorithm considers different join prefixes,
and then picks one table to put into the join prefix.
Most of the semi-join optimization state is in the table's entry
in the join->positions[cur_prefix_size].
However, it also needs to call update_sj_state() to update the
semi-join optimization state in the JOIN class.
There is one exception, which is the cause of this bug: when we're
inside optimize_semi_join_nests() and are optimizing a subquery,
optimize_semi_joins() does nothing, it doesn't call update_sj_state().
greedy_search() must not do that either.
(Try 2)
The code that updates semi-join optimization state for a join order prefix
had several bugs. The visible effect was bad optimization for FirstMatch or
LooseScan strategies: they either weren't considered when they should have
been, or considered when they shouldn't have been.
In order to hit the bug, the optimizer needs to consider several different
join prefixes in a certain order. Queries with "obvious" query plans which
prune all join orders except one are not affected.
Internally, the bugs in updates of semi-join state were:
1. restore_prev_sj_state() assumed that
"we assume remaining_tables doesnt contain @tab"
which wasn't true.
2. Another bug in this function: it did remove bits from
join->cur_sj_inner_tables but never added them.
3. greedy_search() adds tables into the join prefix but neglects to update
the semi-join optimization state. (It does update nested outer join
state, see this call:
check_interleaving_with_nj(best_table)
but there's no matching call to update the semi-join state.
(This wasn't visible because most of the state is in the POSITION
structure which is updated. But there is also state in JOIN, too)
The patch:
- Fixes all of the above
- Adds JOIN::dbug_verify_sj_inner_tables() which is used to verify the
state is correct at every step.
- Renames advance_sj_state() to optimize_semi_joins().
= Introduces update_sj_state() which ideally should have been called
"advance_sj_state" but I didn't reuse the name to not create confusion.

The Item_in_subselect::in_strategy keeps the value and as the error
happens the condition isn't modified. That leads to wrong ::fix_fields
execution on second PS run. Also the select->table_list is merged
but not restored if an error happens, which causes hanging loops on
the third PS execution.

in about a hundred of users of MY_BITMAP, only two were using its
built-in mutex, and only one of those two was actually needing it.
Remove the mutex from MY_BITMAP, remove all associated conditions
and checks in bitmap functions. Use an external LOCK_temp_pool
mutex and temp_pool_set_next/temp_pool_clear_bit acccessors.
Remove bitmap_init/bitmap_free, always use my_* versions.
This was done to simplify copying of with_* flags
Other things:
- Changed Flags to C++ enums, which enables gdb to print
out bit values for the flags. This also enables compiler
errors if one tries to manipulate a non existing bit in
a variable.
- Added set_maybe_null() as a shortcut as setting the
MAYBE_NULL flags was used in a LOT of places.
- Renamed PARAM flag to SP_VAR to ensure it's not confused with persistent
statement parameters.
One should instead use Item::fixed() and Item::with_subquery()
Removed Item::is_fixed() and has_subquery() and did the following replace:
replace is_fixed() fixed() -- *.*
replace 'has_subquery()' 'with_subquery()' -- *.*
The reason for the change is that neither clang or gcc can do efficient
code when several bit fields are change at the same time or when copying
one or more bits between identical bit fields.
Updated bits explicitely with & and | is MUCH more efficient than what
current compilers can do.
Added back variable 'with_subquery' to Item class as a bit field.
This made the code shorter, faster (removed some virtual methods,
less code to create an initialized item etc) and made many Item's 7 bytes
smaller.
This is the last set of my patches the decreases the size of Item.
Some examples from gdb:
sizeof(Item): 144 -> 120
sizeof(Item_func) 208 -> 184
sizeof(Item_sum_max) 368 -> 344
Replace
* select_lex::offset_limit
* select_lex::select_limit
* select_lex::explicit_limit
with select_lex::Lex_select_limit
The Lex_select_limit already existed with the same elements and was used in
by the yacc parser.
This commit is in preparation for FETCH FIRST implementation, as it
simplifies a lot of the code.
Additionally, the parser is simplified by making use of the stack to
return Lex_select_limit objects.
Cleanup of init_query() too. Removes explicit_limit= 0 as it's done a bit later
in init_select() with limit_params.empty()
The easiest way to compile and test the server with UBSAN is to run:
./BUILD/compile-pentium64-ubsan
and then run mysql-test-run.
After this commit, one should be able to run this without any UBSAN
warnings. There is still a few compiler warnings that should be fixed
at some point, but these do not expose any real bugs.
The 'special' cases where we disable, suppress or circumvent UBSAN are:
- ref10 source (as here we intentionally do some shifts that UBSAN
complains about.
- x86 version of optimized int#korr() methods. UBSAN do not like unaligned
memory access of integers. Fixed by using byte_order_generic.h when
compiling with UBSAN
- We use smaller thread stack with ASAN and UBSAN, which forced me to
disable a few tests that prints the thread stack size.
- Verifying class types does not work for shared libraries. I added
suppression in mysql-test-run.pl for this case.
- Added '#ifdef WITH_UBSAN' when using integer arithmetic where it is
safe to have overflows (two cases, in item_func.cc).
Things fixed:
- Don't left shift signed values
(byte_order_generic.h, mysqltest.c, item_sum.cc and many more)
- Don't assign not non existing values to enum variables.
- Ensure that bool and enum values are properly initialized in
constructors. This was needed as UBSAN checks that these types has
correct values when one copies an object.
(gcalc_tools.h, ha_partition.cc, item_sum.cc, partition_element.h ...)
- Ensure we do not called handler functions on unallocated objects or
deleted objects.
(events.cc, sql_acl.cc).
- Fixed bugs in Item_sp::Item_sp() where we did not call constructor
on Query_arena object.
- Fixed several cast of objects to an incompatible class!
(Item.cc, Item_buff.cc, item_timefunc.cc, opt_subselect.cc, sql_acl.cc,
sql_select.cc ...)
- Ensure we do not do integer arithmetic that causes over or underflows.
This includes also ++ and -- of integers.
(Item_func.cc, Item_strfunc.cc, item_timefunc.cc, sql_base.cc ...)
- Added JSON_VALUE_UNITIALIZED to json_value_types and ensure that
value_type is initialized to this instead of to -1, which is not a valid
enum value for json_value_types.
- Ensure we do not call memcpy() when second argument could be null.
- Fixed that Item_func_str::make_empty_result() creates an empty string
instead of a null string (safer as it ensures we do not do arithmetic
on null strings).
Other things:
- Changed struct st_position to an OBJECT and added an initialization
function to it to ensure that we do not copy or use uninitialized
members. The change to a class was also motived that we used "struct
st_position" and POSITION randomly trough the code which was
confusing.
- Notably big rewrite in sql_acl.cc to avoid using deleted objects.
- Changed in sql_partition to use '^' instead of '-'. This is safe as
the operator is either 0 or 0x8000000000000000ULL.
- Added check for select_nr < INT_MAX in JOIN::build_explain() to
avoid bug when get_select() could return NULL.
- Reordered elements in POSITION for better alignment.
- Changed sql_test.cc::print_plan() to use pointers instead of objects.
- Fixed bug in find_set() where could could execute '1 << -1'.
- Added variable have_sanitizer, used by mtr. (This variable was before
only in 10.5 and up). It can now have one of two values:
ASAN or UBSAN.
- Moved ~Archive_share() from ha_archive.cc to ha_archive.h and marked
it virtual. This was an effort to get UBSAN to work with loaded storage
engines. I kept the change as the new place is better.
- Added in CONNECT engine COLBLK::SetName(), to get around a wrong cast
in tabutil.cpp.
- Added HAVE_REPLICATION around usage of rgi_slave, to get embedded
server to compile with UBSAN. (Patch from Marko).
- Added #ifdef for powerpc64 to avoid a bug in old gcc versions related
to integer arithmetic.
Changes that should not be needed but had to be done to suppress warnings
from UBSAN:
- Added static_cast<<uint16_t>> around shift to get rid of a LOT of
compiler warnings when using UBSAN.
- Had to change some '/' of 2 base integers to shift to get rid of
some compile time warnings.
