Problem:
Field_timestampf implementations differ in MySQL and MariaDB:
- MariaDB sets the UNSIGNED_FLAG in Field::flags
- MySQL does not
The reference table structures
(defined in table_stats_schema and index_stats_schema)
expected the last_update column to have the DATA_UNSIGNED flag,
because MariaDB's Field_timestampf has the UNSIGNED_FLAG.
It worked fine on pure MariaDB installations.
However, if a MariaDB server starts over a MySQL-5.7 data directory during
a migration, the last_update column does not have DATA_UNSIGNED flag,
because MySQL's Field_timestampf does not have the UNSIGNED_FLAG.
This made InnoDB (after the migration from MySQL) complain into the server
error log about the unexpected data type.
The actual fix is done in storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc:
It removes DATA_UNSIGNED from the prtype_mask member of the reference columns,
so now it does not require the underlying columns to have this flag.
The rest of the fix is needed for MTR tests.
The new data type plugin TYPE_MYSQL_TIMESTAMP implements a slightly modified
version of Field_timestampf, which removes the unsigned flag, so
it works like MySQL's Field_timestampf.
The MTR test ALTERs the data type of the columns
table_stats_schema.last_update and index_stats_schema.last_update
from TIMESTAMP to TYPE_MYSQL_TIMESTAMP, then makes InnoDB
verify the structure of the two statistics tables by creating
and populating an InnoDB table t1.
Without the fix made storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc,
MTR complains about unexpected warnings in the server error log:
[ERROR] InnoDB: Column last_update in table mysql.innodb_table_stats is ...
[ERROR] InnoDB: Column last_update in table mysql.innodb_index_stats is ...
With the fix made storage/innobase/dict/dict0stats.cc these warnings
go away.
Type_handler::partition_field_append_value() erroneously
passed the address of my_collation_contextually_typed_binary
to conversion functions copy_and_convert() and my_convert().
This happened because generate_partition_syntax_for_frm()
was called from mysql_create_frm_image() in the stage when
the fields in List<Create_field> can still contain unresolved
contextual collations, like "binary" in the reported crash scenario:
ALTER TABLE t CHANGE COLUMN a a CHAR BINARY;
Fix:
1. Splitting mysql_prepare_create_table() into two parts:
- mysql_prepare_create_table_stage1() interates through
List<Create_field> and calls Create_field::prepare_stage1(),
which performs basic attribute initialization, including
context collation resolution.
- mysql_prepare_create_table_finalize() - the rest of the
old mysql_prepare_create_table() code.
2. Changing mysql_create_frm_image():
It now calls:
- mysql_prepare_create_table_stage1() in the very
beginning, before the partition related code.
- mysql_prepare_create_table_finalize() in the end,
instead of the old mysql_prepare_create_table() call
3. Adding mysql_prepare_create_table() as a wrapper
for two calls:
mysql_prepare_create_table_stage1() ||
mysql_prepare_create_table_finalize()
so the code stays unchanged in the other places
where mysql_prepare_create_table() was used.
4. Changing prototype for Type_handler::Column_definition_prepare_stage1()
Removing arguments:
- handler *file
- ulonglong table_flags
Adding a new argument instead:
- column_definition_type_t type
This allows to call Column_definition_prepare_stage1() and
therefore to call mysql_prepare_create_table_stage1()
before instantiation of a handler.
This simplifies the code, because in case of a partitioned table,
mysql_create_frm_image() creates a handler of the underlying
partition first, the frees it and created a ha_partition
instance instead.
mysql_prepare_create_table() before the fix was called with the final
(ha_partition) handler.
5. Moving parts of Column_definition_prepare_stage1() which
need a pointer to handler and table_flags to
Column_definition_prepare_stage2().
SELECT DISTINCT did not work with expressions with sum functions.
Distinct was only done on the values stored in the intermediate temporary
tables, which only stored the value of each sum function.
In other words:
SELECT DISTINCT sum(a),sum(b),avg(c) ... worked.
SELECT DISTINCT sum(a),sum(b) > 2,sum(c)+sum(d) would not work.
The later query would do ONLY apply distinct on the sum(a) part.
Reviewer: Sergei Petrunia <sergey@mariadb.com>
This was fixed by extending remove_dup_with_hash_index() and
remove_dup_with_compare() to take into account the columns in the result
list that where not stored in the temporary table.
Note that in many cases the above dup removal functions are not used as
the optimizer may be able to either remove duplicates early or it will
discover that duplicate remove is not needed. The later happens for
example if the group by fields is part of the result.
Other things:
- Backported from 11.0 the change of Sort_param.tmp_buffer from char* to
String.
- Changed Type_handler::make_sort_key() to take String as a parameter
instead of Sort_param. This was done to allow make_sort_key() functions
to be reused by distinct elimination functions.
This makes Type_handler_string_result::make_sort_key() similar to code
in 11.0
- Simplied error handling in remove_dup_with_compare() to remove code
duplication.
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".
This patch also fixes:
MDEV-27690 Crash on `CHARACTER SET csname COLLATE DEFAULT` in column definition
MDEV-27853 Wrong data type on column `COLLATE DEFAULT` and table `COLLATE some_non_default_collation`
MDEV-28067 Multiple conflicting column COLLATE clauses are not rejected
MDEV-28118 Wrong collation of `CAST(.. AS CHAR COLLATE DEFAULT)`
MDEV-28119 Wrong column collation on MODIFY + CONVERT
Hybrid functions (IF, COALESCE, etc) did not preserve the JSON property
from their arguments. The same problem was repeatable for single row subselects.
The problem happened because the method Item::is_json_type() was inconsistently
implemented across the Item hierarchy. For example, Item_hybrid_func
and Item_singlerow_subselect did not override is_json_type().
Solution:
- Removing Item::is_json_type()
- Implementing specific JSON type handlers:
Type_handler_string_json
Type_handler_varchar_json
Type_handler_tiny_blob_json
Type_handler_blob_json
Type_handler_medium_blob_json
Type_handler_long_blob_json
- Reusing the existing data type infrastructure to pass JSON
type handlers across all item types, including classes Item_hybrid_func
and Item_singlerow_subselect. Note, these two classes themselves do not
need any changes!
- Extending the data type infrastructure so data types can inherit
their properties (e.g. aggregation rules) from their base data types.
E.g. VARCHAR/JSON acts as VARCHAR, LONGTEXT/JSON acts as LONGTEXT
when mixed to a non-JSON data type. This is done by:
- adding virtual method Type_handler::type_handler_base()
- adding a helper class Type_handler_pair
- refactoring Type_handler_hybrid_field_type methods
aggregate_for_result(), aggregate_for_min_max(),
aggregate_for_num_op() to use Type_handler_pair.
This change also fixes:
MDEV-27361 Hybrid functions with JSON arguments do not send format metadata
Also, adding mtr tests for JSON replication. It was not covered yet.
And the current patch changes the replication code slightly.
- Moved out creating StringBuffers in loops and instead create them
outside and just reset the buffer if it was not allocated (to avoid
a possible malloc/free for every entry)
Other things related to set_buffer_if_not_allocated()
- Changed Valuebuffer to not call set_buffer_if_not_allocated() when
it is created.
- Fixed geometry functions to reset string length before calling
String::reserve(). This is because one should not access length()
of an undefined.
- Added Item_func_conv_charset::save_in_field() as the item is using
str_value to store cached values, which conflicts with
Item::save_str_in_field().
- Changed Item_proc_string to not store the string value in sql_string
as this clashes with Item::save_str_in_field().
- Locally store value of full_name_cstring() in analyse::end_of_records()
as Item::save_str_in_field() may overwrite it.
- Marked some strings as set_thread_specific()
- Added String::free_buffer() to be used internally in String functions
to just free the buffer but not reset other String values.
- Fixed uses_buffer_owned_by() to check for allocated length instead of
strlength, which could be marked MEM_UNDEFINED().
Changes:
- To detect automatic strlen() I removed the methods in String that
uses 'const char *' without a length:
- String::append(const char*)
- Binary_string(const char *str)
- String(const char *str, CHARSET_INFO *cs)
- append_for_single_quote(const char *)
All usage of append(const char*) is changed to either use
String::append(char), String::append(const char*, size_t length) or
String::append(LEX_CSTRING)
- Added STRING_WITH_LEN() around constant string arguments to
String::append()
- Added overflow argument to escape_string_for_mysql() and
escape_quotes_for_mysql() instead of returning (size_t) -1 on overflow.
This was needed as most usage of the above functions never tested the
result for -1 and would have given wrong results or crashes in case
of overflows.
- Added Item_func_or_sum::func_name_cstring(), which returns LEX_CSTRING.
Changed all Item_func::func_name()'s to func_name_cstring()'s.
The old Item_func_or_sum::func_name() is now an inline function that
returns func_name_cstring().str.
- Changed Item::mode_name() and Item::func_name_ext() to return
LEX_CSTRING.
- Changed for some functions the name argument from const char * to
to const LEX_CSTRING &:
- Item::Item_func_fix_attributes()
- Item::check_type_...()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_item_collations()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_item_set_converter()
- Type_std_attributes::agg_arg_charsets...()
- Type_handler_hybrid_field_type::aggregate_for_result()
- Type_handler_geometry::check_type_geom_or_binary()
- Type_handler::Item_func_or_sum_illegal_param()
- Predicant_to_list_comparator::add_value_skip_null()
- Predicant_to_list_comparator::add_value()
- cmp_item_row::prepare_comparators()
- cmp_item_row::aggregate_row_elements_for_comparison()
- Cursor_ref::print_func()
- Removes String_space() as it was only used in one cases and that
could be simplified to not use String_space(), thanks to the fixed
my_vsnprintf().
- Added some const LEX_CSTRING's for common strings:
- NULL_clex_str, DATA_clex_str, INDEX_clex_str.
- Changed primary_key_name to a LEX_CSTRING
- Renamed String::set_quick() to String::set_buffer_if_not_allocated() to
clarify what the function really does.
- Rename of protocol function:
bool store(const char *from, CHARSET_INFO *cs) to
bool store_string_or_null(const char *from, CHARSET_INFO *cs).
This was done to both clarify the difference between this 'store' function
and also to make it easier to find unoptimal usage of store() calls.
- Added Protocol::store(const LEX_CSTRING*, CHARSET_INFO*)
- Changed some 'const char*' arrays to instead be of type LEX_CSTRING.
- class Item_func_units now used LEX_CSTRING for name.
Other things:
- Fixed a bug in mysql.cc:construct_prompt() where a wrong escape character
in the prompt would cause some part of the prompt to be duplicated.
- Fixed a lot of instances where the length of the argument to
append is known or easily obtain but was not used.
- Removed some not needed 'virtual' definition for functions that was
inherited from the parent. I added override to these.
- Fixed Ordered_key::print() to preallocate needed buffer. Old code could
case memory overruns.
- Simplified some loops when adding char * to a String with delimiters.
- 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.
aspects of decimals and integers
For fields and Item's uint8 should be good enough. After
discussions with Alexander Barkov we choose uint16 (for now)
as some format functions may accept +256 digits.
The reason for this patch was to make the usage and storage of decimal
digits simlar. Before this patch decimals was stored/used as uint8,
int and uint. The lengths for numbers where also using a lot of
different types.
Changed most decimal variables and functions to use the new typedef.
squash! af7f09106b6c1dc20ae8c480bff6fd22d266b184
Use decimal_digits_t for all aspects of digits (total, precision
and scale), both for decimals and integers.
Problem:
The problem happened because of a conceptual flaw in the server code:
a. The table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause affected all data types,
including numeric and temporal ones:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT) CHARACTER SET utf8 [COLLATE utf8_general_ci];
In the above example, the Column_definition_attributes
(and then the FRM record) for the column "a" erroneously inherited
"utf8" as its character set.
b. The "ALTER TABLE t1 CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET csname" statement
also erroneously affected Column_definition_attributes::charset
for numeric and temporal data types and wrote "csname" as their
character set into FRM files.
So now we have arbitrary non-relevant charset ID values for numeric
and temporal data types in all FRM files in the world :)
The code in the server and the other engines did not seem to be affected
by this flaw. Only InnoDB inplace ALTER was affected.
Solution:
Fixing the code in the way that only character string data types
(CHAR,VARCHAR,TEXT,ENUM,SET):
- inherit the table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause
- get the charset value according to "CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET csname".
Numeric and temporal data types now always get &my_charset_numeric
in Column_definition_attributes::charset and always write its ID into FRM files:
- no matter what the table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause is, and
- no matter what "CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET" says.
Details:
1. Adding helper classes to pass small parts of HA_CREATE_INFO
into Type_handler methods:
- Column_derived_attributes - to pass table level CHARSET/COLLATE,
so columns that do not have explicit CHARSET/COLLATE clauses
can derive them from the table level, e.g.
CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARCHAR(1), b CHAR(1)) CHARACTER SET utf8;
- Column_bulk_alter_attributes - to pass bulk attribute changes
generated by the ALTER related code. These bulk changes affect
multiple columns at the same time:
ALTER TABLE ... CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET csname;
Note, passing the whole HA_CREATE_INFO directly to Type_handler
would not be good: HA_CREATE_INFO is huge and would need not desired
dependencies in sql_type.h and sql_type.cc. The Type_handler API should
use smallest possible data types!
2. Type_handler::Column_definition_prepare_stage1() is now responsible
to set Column_definition::charset properly, according to the data type,
for example:
- For string data types, Column_definition_attributes::charset is set from
the table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause (if not specified explicitly in
the column definition).
- For numeric and temporal fields, Column_definition_attributes::charset is
set to &my_charset_numeric, no matter what the table level
CHARSET/COLLATE says.
- For GEOMETRY, Column_definition_attributes::charset is set to
&my_charset_bin, no matter what the table level CHARSET/COLLATE says.
Previously this code (setting `charset`) was outside of of
Column_definition_prepare_stage1(), namely in
mysql_prepare_create_table(), and was erroneously called for
all data types.
3. Adding Type_handler::Column_definition_bulk_alter(), to handle
"ALTER TABLE .. CONVERT TO". Previously this code was inside
get_sql_field_charset() and was erroneously called for all data types.
4. Removing the Schema_specification_st parameter from
Type_handler::Column_definition_redefine_stage1().
Column_definition_attributes::charset is now fully properly initialized by
Column_definition_prepare_stage1(). So we don't need access to the
table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause in Column_definition_redefine_stage1()
any more.
5. Other changes:
- Removing global function get_sql_field_charset()
- Moving the part of the former get_sql_field_charset(), which was
responsible to inherit the table level CHARSET/COLLATE clause to
new methods:
-- Column_definition_attributes::explicit_or_derived_charset() and
-- Column_definition::prepare_charset_for_string().
This code is only needed for string data types.
Previously it was erroneously called for all data types.
- Moving another part, which was responsible to apply the
"CONVERT TO" clause, to
Type_handler_general_purpose_string::Column_definition_bulk_alter().
- Replacing the call for get_sql_field_charset() in sql_partition.cc
to sql_field->explicit_or_derived_charset() - it is perfectly enough.
The old code was redundant: get_sql_field_charset() was called from
sql_partition.cc only when there were no a "CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET"
clause involved, so its purpose was only to inherit the table
level CHARSET/COLLATE clause.
- Moving the code handling the BINCMP_FLAG flag from
mysql_prepare_create_table() to
Column_definition::prepare_charset_for_string():
This code is responsible to resolve the BINARY comparison style
into the corresponding _bin collation, to do the following transparent
rewrite:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARCHAR(10) BINARY) CHARSET utf8; ->
CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARCHAR(10) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin);
This code is only needed for string data types.
Previously it was erroneously called for all data types.
6. Renaming Table_scope_and_contents_source_pod_st::table_charset
to alter_table_convert_to_charset, because the only purpose it's used for
is handlering "ALTER .. CONVERT". The new name is much more self-descriptive.
Allow materialization strategy when collations on the
inner and outer sides of an IN subquery are the same and the
character set of the inner side is a proper subset of the character
set on the outer side.
This allows conversion from utf8mb3 to utf8mb4
as the former is a subset of the later.
This is only allowed when IN predicate is converted to an IN subquery
Backported part of the patch (d6a00d9b18f) of MDEV-17905.
