When there is no bounds on the upper or lower part of the window,
it doesn't matter if the type is numeric.
It also doesn't matter how many ORDER BY items there are in the
query.
Reviewers: Sergei Petrunia and Oleg Smirnov
Two new variables added:
- max_tmp_space_usage : Limits the the temporary space allowance per user
- max_total_tmp_space_usage: Limits the temporary space allowance for
all users.
New status variables: tmp_space_used & max_tmp_space_used
New field in information_schema.process_list: TMP_SPACE_USED
The temporary space is counted for:
- All SQL level temporary files. This includes files for filesort,
transaction temporary space, analyze, binlog_stmt_cache etc.
It does not include engine internal temporary files used for repair,
alter table, index pre sorting etc.
- All internal on disk temporary tables created as part of resolving a
SELECT, multi-source update etc.
Special cases:
- When doing a commit, the last flush of the binlog_stmt_cache
will not cause an error even if the temporary space limit is exceeded.
This is to avoid giving errors on commit. This means that a user
can temporary go over the limit with up to binlog_stmt_cache_size.
Noteworthy issue:
- One has to be careful when using small values for max_tmp_space_limit
together with binary logging and with non transactional tables.
If a the binary log entry for the query is bigger than
binlog_stmt_cache_size and one hits the limit of max_tmp_space_limit
when flushing the entry to disk, the query will abort and the
binary log will not contain the last changes to the table.
This will also stop the slave!
This is also true for all Aria tables as Aria cannot do rollback
(except in case of crashes)!
One way to avoid it is to use @@binlog_format=statement for
queries that updates a lot of rows.
Implementation:
- All writes to temporary files or internal temporary tables, that
increases the file size, are routed through temp_file_size_cb_func()
which updates and checks the temp space usage.
- Most of the temporary file monitoring is done inside IO_CACHE.
Temporary file monitoring is done inside the Aria engine.
- MY_TRACK and MY_TRACK_WITH_LIMIT are new flags for ini_io_cache().
MY_TRACK means that we track the file usage. TRACK_WITH_LIMIT means
that we track the file usage and we give an error if the limit is
breached. This is used to not give an error on commit when
binlog_stmp_cache is flushed.
- global_tmp_space_used contains the total tmp space used so far.
This is needed quickly check against max_total_tmp_space_usage.
- Temporary space errors are using EE_LOCAL_TMP_SPACE_FULL and
handler errors are using HA_ERR_LOCAL_TMP_SPACE_FULL.
This is needed until we move general errors to it's own error space
so that they cannot conflict with system error numbers.
- Return value of my_chsize() and mysql_file_chsize() has changed
so that -1 is returned in the case my_chsize() could not decrease
the file size (very unlikely and will not happen on modern systems).
All calls to _chsize() are updated to check for > 0 as the error
condition.
- At the destruction of THD we check that THD::tmp_file_space == 0
- At server end we check that global_tmp_space_used == 0
- As a precaution against errors in the tmp_space_used code, one can set
max_tmp_space_usage and max_total_tmp_space_usage to 0 to disable
the tmp space quota errors.
- truncate_io_cache() function added.
- Aria tables using static or dynamic row length are registered in 8K
increments to avoid some calls to update_tmp_file_size().
Other things:
- Ensure that all handler errors are registered. Before, some engine
errors could be printed as "Unknown error".
- Fixed bug in filesort() that causes a assert if there was an error
when writing to the temporay file.
- Fixed that compute_window_func() now takes into account write errors.
- In case of parallel replication, rpl_group_info::cleanup_context()
could call trans_rollback() with thd->error set, which would cause
an assert. Fixed by resetting the error before calling trans_rollback().
- Fixed bug in subselect3.inc which caused following test to use
heap tables with low value for max_heap_table_size
- Fixed bug in sql_expression_cache where it did not overflow
heap table to Aria table.
- Added Max_tmp_disk_space_used to slow query log.
- Fixed some bugs in log_slow_innodb.test

- Removing the virtual function strnncoll() from MY_COLLATION_HANDLER
- Adding a wrapper function CHARSET_INFO::streq(), to compare
two strings for equality. For now it calls strnncoll() internally.
In the future it will turn into a virtual function.
- Adding new accent sensitive case insensitive collations:
- utf8mb4_general1400_as_ci
- utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci
They implement accent sensitive case insensitive comparison.
The weight of a character is equal to the code point of its
upper case variant. These collations use Unicode-14.0.0 casefolding data.
The result of
my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci.strcoll()
is very close to the former
my_charset_utf8mb3_general_ci.strcasecmp()
There is only a difference in a couple dozen rare characters, because:
- the switch from "tolower" to "toupper" comparison, to make
utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci closer to utf8mb3_general_ci
- the switch from Unicode-3.0.0 to Unicode-14.0.0
This difference should be tolarable. See the list of affected
characters in the MDEV description.
Note, utf8mb4_general1400_as_ci correctly handles non-BMP characters!
Unlike utf8mb4_general_ci, it does not treat all BMP characters
as equal.
- Adding classes representing names of the file based database objects:
Lex_ident_db
Lex_ident_table
Lex_ident_trigger
Their comparison collation depends on the underlying
file system case sensitivity and on --lower-case-table-names
and can be either my_charset_bin or my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci.
- Adding classes representing names of other database objects,
whose names have case insensitive comparison style,
using my_charset_utf8mb3_general1400_as_ci:
Lex_ident_column
Lex_ident_sys_var
Lex_ident_user_var
Lex_ident_sp_var
Lex_ident_ps
Lex_ident_i_s_table
Lex_ident_window
Lex_ident_func
Lex_ident_partition
Lex_ident_with_element
Lex_ident_rpl_filter
Lex_ident_master_info
Lex_ident_host
Lex_ident_locale
Lex_ident_plugin
Lex_ident_engine
Lex_ident_server
Lex_ident_savepoint
Lex_ident_charset
engine_option_value::Name
- All the mentioned Lex_ident_xxx classes implement a method streq():
if (ident1.streq(ident2))
do_equal();
This method works as a wrapper for CHARSET_INFO::streq().
- Changing a lot of "LEX_CSTRING name" to "Lex_ident_xxx name"
in class members and in function/method parameters.
- Replacing all calls like
system_charset_info->coll->strcasecmp(ident1, ident2)
to
ident1.streq(ident2)
- Taking advantage of the c++11 user defined literal operator
for LEX_CSTRING (see m_strings.h) and Lex_ident_xxx (see lex_ident.h)
data types. Use example:
const Lex_ident_column primary_key_name= "PRIMARY"_Lex_ident_column;
is now a shorter version of:
const Lex_ident_column primary_key_name=
Lex_ident_column({STRING_WITH_LEN("PRIMARY")});
The function setup_windows() called at the prepare phase of processing a
select builds a list of all window specifications used in the select. This list
is built on the statement memory and it must be done only once.

Before this patch, the code in Item_field::print() used
this convention (described in sql_explain.h:ExplainDataStructureLifetime):
- By default, the table that Item_field refers to is accessible.
- ANALYZE and SHOW {EXPLAIN|ANALYZE} may print Items after some
temporary tables have been dropped. They use
QT_DONT_ACCESS_TMP_TABLES flag. When it is ON, Item_field::print
will not access the table it refers to, if it is a temp.table
The bug was that EXPLAIN statement also may compute subqueries (depending
on subquery context and @@expensive_subquery_limit setting). After the
computation, the subquery calls JOIN::cleanup(true) which drops some of
its temporary tables. Calling Item_field::print() that refer to such table
will cause an access to free'd memory.
In this patch, we take into account that query optimization can compute
a subquery and discard its temporary tables. Item_field::print() now
assumes that any temporary table might have already been dropped.
This means QT_DONT_ACCESS_TMP_TABLES flag is not needed - we imply it is
always present.
But we also make one exception: derived tables are not freed in
JOIN::cleanup() call. They are freed later in close_thread_tables(),
at the same time when regular tables are closed.
Because of that, Item_field::print may assume that temp.tables
representing derived tables are available.

The problematic query outlined a bug in window functions sorting
optimization. When multiple window functions are present in a query,
we sort the sorting key (as defined by PARTITION BY and ORDER BY) from
generic to specific.
SELECT RANK() OVER (ORDER BY const_col) as r1,
RANK() OVER (ORDER BY const_col, a) as r2,
RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY c) as r3,
RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY c ORDER BY b) as r4
FROM table;
For these functions, the sorting we need to do for window function
computations are: [(const_col), (const_col, a)] and [(c), (c, b)].
Instead of doing 4 different sort order, the sorts grouped within [] are
compatible and we can use the most *specific* sort to cover both window
functions.
The bug was caused by an incorrect flagging of which sort is most
specific for a compatible group of functions. In our specific test case,
instead of picking (const_col, a) as the most specific sort, it would
only sort by (const_col), which lead to wrong results for rank function.
By ensuring that we pick the last sort key before an "incompatible sort"
flag is met in our "ordered array of sorting specifications", we
guarantee correct results.
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".
Window Functions code tries to minimize the number of times it
needs to sort the select's resultset by finding "compatible"
OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...) clauses.
This employs compare_order_elements(). That function assumed that
the order expressions are Item_field-derived objects (that refer
to a temp.table). But this is not always the case: one can
construct queries order expressions are arbitrary item expressions.
Add handling for such expressions: sort them according to the window
specification they appeared in.
This means we cannot detect that two compatible PARTITION BY clauses
that use expressions can share the sorting step.
But at least we won't crash.
SHOW EXPLAIN/ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON tries to access items that have already been
freed by a call to free_items() during THD::cleanup_after_query().
The solution is to disallow APC calls including SHOW EXPLAIN/ANALYZE
just before the call to free_items().
from view
A crash of the server happened when executing a stored procedure whose the
only query calculated window functions over a mergeable view specified
as a select from non-mergeable view. The crash could be reproduced if
the window specifications of the window functions were identical and both
contained PARTITION lists and ORDER BY lists. A crash also happened on
the second execution of the prepared statement created for such query.
If to use derived tables or CTE instead of views the problem still
manifests itself crashing the server.
When optimizing the window specifications of a window function the
server can substitute the partition lists and the order lists for
the corresponding lists from another window specification in the case
when the lists are identical. This substitution is not permanent and should
be rolled back before the second execution. It was not done and this
ultimately led to a crash when resolving the column names at the second
execution of SP/PS.
- Better, easier to read code (no used of 'random' constants).
- All defines are now unique, so it is easier to find bugs if
somethings goes wrong.
Other things:
- Created sub function of common code in Aggregator_distinct::setup() and
Item_func_group_concat::setup() that set item->marker
- More documentation
- Folded a few long lines.
- Allmost all changes in item.cc, sql_lex.cc and sql_window.cc are done
with 'replace'.
- Added THD argument to functions that calls current_thd() or
new without a mem_root argument:
make_same(), set_comparator_func(), set_cmp_func(), set_cmp_func*(),
set_aggregator() and prepare_sum_aggregators()
- Changed "new Class" to "new (thd->mem_root) Class"
Almost all changes mechanical, no logic changes.
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.
Allocate space for fields inside the window function (arguments, PARTITION BY and ORDER BY clause)
in the ref pointer array. All fields inside the window function are part of the temporary
table that is required for the window function computation.
Currently when both PARTITION BY and ORDER BY clauses are empty then we create a Item
with the first field in the select list and sort with that field.
It should be created as an Item_temptable_field instead of Item_field because the
print() function continues to work even if the table has been dropped.
