The ROWNUM() function is for SELECT mapped to JOIN->accepted_rows, which is
incremented for each accepted rows.
For Filesort, update, insert, delete and load data, we map ROWNUM() to
internal variables incremented when the table is changed.
The connection between the row counter and Item_func_rownum is done
in sql_select.cc::fix_items_after_optimize() and
sql_insert.cc::fix_rownum_pointers()
When ROWNUM() is used anywhere in query, the optimization to ignore ORDER
BY in sub queries are disabled. This was done to get the following common
Oracle query to work:
select * from (select * from t1 order by a desc) as t where rownum() <= 2;
MDEV-3926 "Wrong result with GROUP BY ... WITH ROLLUP" contains a discussion
about this topic.
LIMIT optimization is enabled when in a top level WHERE clause comparing
ROWNUM() with a numerical constant using any of the following expressions:
- ROWNUM() < #
- ROWNUM() <= #
- ROWNUM() = 1
ROWNUM() can be also be the right argument to the comparison function.
LIMIT optimization is done in two cases:
- For the current sub query when the ROWNUM comparison is done on the top
level:
SELECT * from t1 WHERE rownum() <= 2 AND t1.a > 0
- For an inner sub query, when the upper level has only a ROWNUM comparison
in the WHERE clause:
SELECT * from (select * from t1) as t WHERE rownum() <= 2
In Oracle mode, one can also use ROWNUM without parentheses.
Other things:
- Fixed bug where the optimizer tries to optimize away sub queries
with RAND_TABLE_BIT set (non-deterministic queries). Now these
sub queries will not be converted to joins. This bug fix was also
needed to get rownum() working inside subqueries.
- In remove_const() remove setting simple_order to FALSE if ROLLUP is
USED. This code was disable a long time ago because of wrong assignment
in the following code. Instead we set simple_order to false if
RAND_TABLE_BIT was used in the SELECT list. This ensures that
we don't delete ORDER BY if the result set is not deterministic, like
in 'SELECT RAND() AS 'r' FROM t1 ORDER BY r';
- Updated parameters for Sort_param::init_for_filesort() to be able
to provide filesort with information where the number of accepted
rows should be stored
- Reordered fields in class Filesort to optimize storage layout
- Added new error messsage to tell that a function can't be used in HAVING
- Added field 'with_rownum' to THD to mark that ROWNUM() is used in the
query.

LIMIT optimization for sub query
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()' -- *.*
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()
SELECT_LEX objects that are "fake_select_lex" (i.e read UNION output)
used both INT_MAX and UINT_MAX as select_number.
- mysql_explain_union() assigned UINT_MAX
- st_select_lex_unit::add_fake_select_lex assigned INT_MAX
This didn't matter initially (before EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON), because the
code had no checks for this value.
EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON and later other features did introduce checks for
select_number values. The check had to check for two constants and
looked really confusing.
This patch joins the two constants into one - FAKE_SELECT_LEX_ID.
The bug caused crashes of the server when processing queries with nested
table value constructors (TVC) . It happened because the grammar rules to
parse TVC used the same global lists for both nested TVC and nesting TVC.
As a result invalid select trees were constructed for queries with nested
TVC and this led to crashes at the prepare stage.
This patch provides its own lists structures for each TVC nest level.
Besides the patch fixes a bug in the function wrap_tvc() that missed
inheritance of the SELECT_LEX::exclude_from_table_unique_test for
selects that wrapped TVCs. This inheritance is critical for specifications
of derived tables that employ nested TVCs.

used in set function
If a subselect is formed by a table value constructor (TVC) then the
following transformation is applied at the prepare stage:
VALUES (v1), ... (vn) => SELECT * FROM (VALUES (v1), ... (vn)) tvc_x.
The transformation is performed by the function wrap_tvc() that resets
THD::LEX::current select to the top level select of the result of the
transformation. After the call of wrap_tvc() in the function
Item_subselect::wrap_tvc_into_select() the field THD::LEX::current must be
reset to the same select as before the call. It was not done. As a result
if the subselect formed by a TVC was an argument of a set function then
an assertion was hit in the function Item_sum::check_sum_func().

This bug caused crashes of the server when processing queries with table
value constructors (TVC) that contained subqueries and were used itself as
subselects. For such TVCs the following transformation is applied at the
prepare stage:
VALUES (v1), ... (vn) => SELECT * FROM (VALUES (v1), ... (vn)) tvc_x.
This transformation allows to reduce the problem of evaluation of TVCs used
as subselects to the problem of evaluation of regular subselects.
The transformation is implemented in the wrap_tvc(). The code the function
to mimic the behaviour of the parser when processing the result of the
transformation. However this imitation was not free of some flaws. First
the function called the method exclude() that completely destroyed the
select tree structures below the transformed TVC. Second the function
used the procedure mysql_new_select to create st_select_lex nodes for
both wrapping select of the transformation and TVC. This also led to
constructing of invalid select tree structures.
The patch actually re-engineers the code of wrap_tvc().

on used subqueries
If a query was based on a table value constructor that contained subqueries
then EXPLAIN for such query did not contain any lines explaining the
execution plans of the subqueries.
This happened because
- no optimize() method was called for any subquery used by the table value
constructor when EXPLAIN command for the query was processed;
- EXPLAIN node created for the table value constructor itself did not
assume that some child nodes could be attached to it.

of two table value costructors
This bug affected queries with a [NOT] IN/ANY/ALL subquery whose top level
unit contained several table value constructors.
The problem appeared because the code of the function
Item_subselect::fix_fields() that was responsible for wrapping table
value constructors encountered at the top level unit of a [NOT] IN/ANY/ALL
subquery did not take into account that the chain of the select objects
comprising the unit were not immutable.

This patch actually fixes the bug MDEV-24675 and the bug MDEV-24618:
Assertion failure when TVC uses a row in the context expecting scalar value
The cause of these bugs is the same wrong call of the function that fixes
value expressions in the value list of a table value constructor.
The assertion failure happened when an expression in the value list is of
the row type. In this case an error message was expected, but it was not
issued because the function fix_fields_if_needed() was called for to
check fields of value expressions in a TVC instead of the function
fix_fields_if_needed_for_scalar() that would also check that the value
expressions are are of a scalar type.
The first bug happened when a table value expression used an expression
returned by single-row subselect. In this case the call of the
fix_fields_if_needed_for_scalar virtual function must be provided with
and address to which the single-row subselect has to be attached.
Test cases were added for each of the bugs.

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.
CREATE PROCEDURE did not detect unknown SP variables in assignments like this:
SET var=a_long_var_name_with_a_typo;
The error happened only during the SP execution time, and only of the control
flow reaches the erroneous statement.
Fixing most expressions to detect unknown identifiers.
This includes simple subqueries without tables:
- Query specification: SELECT list, WHERE,
HAVING (inside aggregate functions) clauses, e.g.
SET var= (SELECT unknown_ident+1);
SET var= (SELECT 1 WHERE unknown_identifier);
SET var= (SELECT 1 HAVING SUM(unknown_identifier);
- Table value constructor: VALUES clause, e.g.:
SET var= (VALUES(unknown_ident));
Note, in some more complex subquery cases unknown variables are still not detected
(this will be fixed separately):
- Derived tables:
SET a=(SELECT unknown_ident FROM (SELECT 1 AS alias) t1);
SET res=(SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT OUTER JOIN (SELECT unknown_ident) t2 USING (c1));
- CTE:
SET a=(WITH cte1 (a) AS (SELECT unknown_ident) SELECT * FROM cte1);
SET a=(WITH cte1 (a,b) AS (VALUES (unknown,2),(3,4)) SELECT * FROM cte1);
SET a=(WITH cte1 (a,b) AS (VALUES (1,2),(3,4)) SELECT unknown_ident FROM cte1);
- SELECT .. GROUP BY unknown_identifier
- SELECT .. ORDER BY unknown_identifier
- HAVING with an unknown identifier outside of any aggregate functions:
SELECT .. HAVING unknown_identifier;
1. Code simplification:
Item_default_value handled all these values:
a. DEFAULT(field)
b. DEFAULT
c. IGNORE
and had various conditions to distinguish (a) from (b) and from (c).
Introducing a new abstract class Item_contextually_typed_value_specification,
to handle (b) and (c), so the hierarchy now looks as follows:
Item
Item_result_field
Item_ident
Item_field
Item_default_value - DEFAULT(field)
Item_contextually_typed_value_specification
Item_default_specification - DEFAULT
Item_ignore_specification - IGNORE
2. Introducing a new virtual method is_evaluable_expression() to
determine if an Item is:
- a normal expression, so its val_xxx()/get_date() methods can be called
- or a just an expression substitute, whose value methods cannot be called.
3. Disallowing Items that are not evalualble expressions in table value
constructors.
Now both offset and limit are stored and do not chenged during execution
(offset is decreased during processing in versions before 10.5).
(Big part of this changes made by Monty)
Shift-Reduce conflicts prevented parsing some queries with subqueries that
used set operations when the subqueries occurred in expressions or in IN
predicands.
The grammar rules for query expression were transformed in order to avoid
these conflicts. New grammar rules employ an idea taken from MySQL 8.0.
query with VALUES()
A table value constructor can be used in all contexts where a select
can be used. In particular an ORDER BY clause or a LIMIT clause or both
of them can be attached to a table value constructor to produce a new
query. Unfortunately execution of such queries was not supported.
This patch fixes the problem.
The MDEV-17262 commit 26432e49d37a37d09b862bb49a021e44bdf4789c
was skipped. In Galera 4, the implementation would seem to require
changes to the streaming replication.
In the tests archive.rnd_pos main.profiling, disable_ps_protocol
for SHOW STATUS and SHOW PROFILE commands until MDEV-18974
has been fixed.
in Field_iterator_table::create_item
When IN predicate is converted to IN subquery we have to ensure that
any item from the select list of the subquery has some name and this name
is unique across the select list.
This was not guaranteed by the code before the patch for MDEV-17222.
If the name of an item of the select list was not set, and this happened
for binary constants, then the server crashed. If the first row in the IN
list contained the same constant in two different positions then the server
returned an error message.
This was fixed by providing all constants in the first row of the IN list
with generated names.
