If a query with implicit grouping contains in MIN/MAX set function in the
select list over a column that is a part of an index then the query
might be subject to MIN/MAX optimization. With this optimization the
server performs a look-up into an index, fetches a value of the column C
used in the MIN/MAX function and substitute the MIN/MAX expression for this
value. This allows to eliminate the table containing C from further join
processing. In order the optimization to be applied the WHERE condition
must be a conjunction of simple equality/inequality predicates or/and
BETWEEN predicates.
The bug fixed in the patch resulted in fetching a wrong value from the
index used for MIN/MAX optimization. It may happened when a BETWEEN
predicate containing the MIN/MAX value followed a strict inequality.

Implement a different fix for
"MDEV-19232: Floating point precision / value comparison problem"
Instead of truncating decimal values after every division,
truncate them for comparison purposes.
This reverts commit 62d73df6b2 but keeps the test.
The issue occurs when the subquery_cache is enabled.
When there is a cache miss the division was leading to a value with scale 9.
In the case of cache hit the value returned was of scale 9 and due to the different
values for the scales the where condition evaluated to FALSE, hence the output
was incomplete.
To fix this problem we need to round up the decimal to the limit mentioned in
Item::decimals. This would make sure the values are compared with the same
scale.
and WHERE filter afterwards
This patch complements the patch fixing the bug MDEV-6892. The latter
properly handled queries that used mergeable views returning constant
columns as inner tables of outer joins and whose where clause contained
predicates referring to these columns if the predicates of happened not
to be equality predicates. Otherwise the server still could return wrong
result sets for such queries. Besides the fix for MDEV-6892 prevented
some possible conversions of outer joins to inner joins for such queries.
This patch corrected the function check_simple_equality() to handle
properly conjunctive equalities of the where clause that refer to the
constant columns of mergeable views used as inner tables of an outer join.
The patch also changed the code of Item_direct_view_ref::not_null_tables().
This change allowed to take into account predicates containing references
to constant columns of mergeable views when converting outer joins into
inner joins.
This is another attempt to fix the bug mdev-12992.
This patch introduces st_select_lex::context_analysis_place for
the place in SELECT where context analysis is currently performed.
It's similar to st_select_lex::parsing_place, but it is used at
the preparation stage.
We assume all around the code that null_value==true is in sync
with NULL value returned by val_str()/val_decimal().
Item_sum_sum::val_decimal() erroneously returned a non-NULL value together
with null_value set to true. Fixing to return NULL instead.
- Moving Item_xxx_field declarations after Item_sum_xxx declarations,
so Item_xxx_field constructors can be defined directly in item_sum.h
rather than item_sum.cc. This removes some duplicate code, e.g.
initialization of the following members at constructor time:
name, decimals, max_length, unsigned_flag, field, maybe_null.
- Adding Item_sum_field as a common parent for Item_avg_field and
Item_variance_field
- Deriving Item_sum_field directly from Item rather that Item_result_field,
as Item_sum_field descendants do not need anything from Item_result_field.
- Removing hybrid infrastructure from Item_avg_field,
adding Item_avg_field_decimal and Item_avg_field_double instead,
as desired result type is already known at constructor time
(not only at fix_fields time). This simplifies the code.
- Changing Item_avg_field_decimal::val_int() to call val_int_from_decimal()
instead of doing { return (longlong) rint(val_real()); }
This is the fix itself.
In original code, sometimes one got an automatic DEFAULT value in some cases, in other cases not.
For example:
create table t1 (a int primary key) - No default
create table t2 (a int, primary key(a)) - DEFAULT 0
create table t1 SELECT .... - Default for all fields, even if they where defined as NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE ... MODIFY could sometimes add an unexpected DEFAULT value.
The patch is quite big because we had some many test cases that used
CREATE ... SELECT or CREATE ... (...PRIMARY KEY(xxx)) which doesn't have an automatic DEFAULT anymore.
Other things:
- Removed warnings from InnoDB when waiting from semaphore (got this when testing things with --big)
Problem was that we used cache_table in some cases where it was not initialized
mysql-test/r/func_group.result:
Added test case
mysql-test/t/func_group.test:
Added test case
sql/item.cc:
Don't use cached_table if not set
sql/item_sum.cc:
Don't use cached_table
- MIN/MAX optimizer does a check whether a "field CMP const" comparison uses a constant
that's longer than the field it is compared to. Make this check only for string columns,
also compare character lengths, not byte lengths.
- 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.
Analysis:
The reason for the inefficent plan was that Item_subselect::is_expensive()
didn't detect the special case when a subquery was optimized, but had no
join plan because it either has no table, or its tables have been optimized
away, or the optimizer detected that the result set is empty.
Solution:
Identify the special cases above in the Item_subselect::is_expensive(),
and consider such degenerate subqueries inexpensive.
The wrong result set returned by the left join query from
the bug test case happened due to several inconsistencies
and bugs of the legacy mysql code.
The bug test case uses an execution plan that employs a scan
of a materialized IN subquery from the WHERE condition.
When materializing such an IN- subquery the optimizer injects
additional equalities into the WHERE clause. These equalities
express the constraints imposed by the subquery predicate.
The injected equality of the query in the test case happens
to belong to the same equality class, and a new equality
imposing a condition on the rows of the materialized subquery
is inferred from this class. Simultaneously the multiple
equality is added to the ON expression of the LEFT JOIN
used in the main query.
The inferred equality of the form f1=f2 is taken into account
when optimizing the scan of the rows the temporary table
that is the result of the subquery materialization: only the
values of the field f1 are read from the table into the record
buffer. Meanwhile the inferred equality is removed from the
WHERE conditions altogether as a constraint on the fields
of the temporary table that has been used when filling this table.
This equality is supposed to be removed from the ON expression
when the multiple equalities of the ON expression are converted
into an optimal set of equality predicates. It supposed to be
removed from the ON expression as an equality inferred from only
equalities of the WHERE condition. Yet, it did not happened
due to the following bug in the code.
Erroneously the code tried to build multiple equality for ON
expression twice: the first time, when it called optimize_cond()
for the WHERE condition, the second time, when it called
this function for the HAVING condition. When executing
optimize_con() for the WHERE condition a reference
to the multiple equality of the WHERE condition is set
in the multiple equality of the ON expression. This reference
would allow later to convert multiple equalities of the
ON expression into equality predicates. However the
the second call of build_equal_items() for the ON expression
that happened when optimize_cond() was called for the
HAVING condition reset this reference to NULL.
This bug fix blocks calling build_equal_items() for ON
expressions for the second time. In general, it will be
beneficial for many queries as it removes from ON
expressions any equalities that are to be checked for the
WHERE condition.
The patch also fixes two bugs in the list manipulation
operations and a bug in the function
substitute_for_best_equal_field() that resulted
in passing wrong reference to the multiple equalities
of where conditions when processing multiple
equalities of ON expressions.
The code of substitute_for_best_equal_field() and
the code the helper function eliminate_item_equal()
were also streamlined and cleaned up.
Now the conversion of the multiple equalities into
an optimal set of equality predicates first produces
the sequence of the all equalities processing multiple
equalities one by one, and, only after this, it inserts
the equalities at the beginning of the other conditions.
The multiple changes in the output of EXPLAIN
EXTENDED are mainly the result of this streamlining,
but in some cases is the result of the removal of
unneeded equalities from ON expressions. In
some test cases this removal were reflected in the
output of EXPLAIN resulted in disappearance of
“Using where” in some rows of the execution plans.
two tests still fail:
main.innodb_icp and main.range_vs_index_merge_innodb
call records_in_range() with both range ends being open
(which triggers an assert)
