Assertion `used_tables_cache == 0' failed
This bug manifested itself when executing queries
over materialized derived tables /vies and with
conjunctive always true predicates containing
inexpensive single-row subqueries.
This bug disappeared after the patch mdev-15035
had been applied.
This patch fixes another problem introduced by the patch for mdev-4817.
The latter changed Item_cond::fix_fields() in such a way that it could
call the virtual method is_expensive(). With the first its call
the method saves the result in Item::is_expensive_cache. For all next
calls the method returns the result from this cache. So if the item
once was determined as expensive the method always returns true.
For subqueries it's not good, because non-optimized subqueries always
is considered as expensive.
It means that the cache should be invalidated after the call of
optimize_constant_subqueries().

During muliple equality propagation for a query in which we have an IN subquery, the items in the select list of the
subquery may not be part of the multiple equality because there might be another occurence of the same field in the
where clause of the subquery.
So we keyuse_is_valid_for_access_in_chosen_plan function which expects the items in the select list of the subquery to
be same to the ones in the multiple equality (through these multiple equalities we create keyuse array).
The solution would be that we expect the same field not the same Item because when we have SEMI JOIN MATERIALIZATION SCAN,
we use copy back technique to copies back the materialised table fields to the original fields of the base tables.

Due to a legacy bug in the code of make_join_statistics() detecting
so-called constant tables could miss some of them in rare queries
that used RIGHT JOIN. As a result these queries had execution plans
different from the execution plans of the equivalent queries with
LEFT JOIN.
Besides starting from 10.2 this could trigger an assertion failure.
When the definition of the index used for hash join was created
in create_hj_key_for_table() it could cause memory overwrite
due to a bug that led to an underestimation of the number of
the index component.
In this case we are accessing incorrect memory when we have mergeable semi-joins.
In the case when we have mergeable semi joins parent select will have a table count
of all the tables in that select plus all the tables involved in the IN-subquery.
But this table count does not include the "sjm table" (only includes the inner and outer tables)
denotes as <subquery#> in explain.
materialized derived table/view that uses aliases is done
The problem appears when a column alias inside the materialized derived
table/view t1 definition coincides with the column name used in the
GROUP BY clause of t1. If the condition that can be pushed into t1
uses that ambiguous column name this column is determined as a column that
is used in the GROUP BY clause instead of the alias used in the projection
list of t1. That causes wrong result.
To prevent it resolve_ref_in_select_and_group() was changed.
For non-semi-join subquery optimization we do a cost based decision between
Materialisation and IN -> EXIST transformation. The issue in this case is that for IN->EXIST transformation
we run JOIN::reoptimize with the IN->EXISt conditions and we come up with a new query plan. But when we compare
the cost with Materialization, we make the decision to chose Materialization so we need to restore the query plan
for Materilization.
The saving and restoring for keyuse array and join_tab keyuse is only done when we have atleast
one element in the keyuse_array , we are now changing to do it even for 0 elements to main the generality.
upon SELECT .. LIMIT 0
The code must differentiate between a SELECT with contradictory
WHERE/HAVING and one with LIMIT 0.
Also for the latter printed 'Zero limit' instead of 'Impossible where'
in the EXPLAIN output.
Explain_query must be created in the execution arena.
But JOIN::optimize_inner temporarily switches to the statement arena
under `if (sel->first_cond_optimization)`. This might cause
Explain_query to be allocated in the statement arena. Usually it is
harmless (although technically incorrect and a waste of memory), but
in case of EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, Prepared_statement object and its
statement arena are destroyed before log_slow_statement() call,
which uses Explain_query.
Fix:
1. Create Explain_query before switching arenas.
2. Before filling earlier-created Explain_query with data, set
thd->mem_root from the Explain_query::mem_root
In this issue we hit the assert because we are adding addition fields to the field JOIN::all_fields list. This
is done because HEAP tables can't index BIT fields so we need to use an additional hidden field for grouping because later it will be
converted to a LONG field. Original field will remain of the BIT type and will be returned. This happens when we convert DISTINCT to
GROUP BY.
The solution is to take into account the number of such hidden fields that would be added to the field
JOIN::all_fields list while calculating the size of the ref_pointer_array.
The issue here is that the window function execution is not called for the correct join tab, when we have GROUP BY
where we create extra temporary tables then we need to call window function execution for the last join tab. For doing
so the current code does not take into account the JOIN::aggr_tables.
Fixed by introducing a new function JOIN::total_join_tab_cnt that takes in account the temporary tables also.
multiple times with different arguments.
If the ON expression of an outer join is an OR formula with one
of the disjunct being a constant formula then the expression
cannot be null-rejected if the constant formula is true. Otherwise
it can be null-rejected and if so the outer join can be converted
into inner join. This optimization was added in the patch for
mdev-4817. Yet the code had a defect: if the query was used in
a stored procedure with parameters and the constant item contained
some of them then the value of this constant item depended on the
values of the parameters. With some parameters it may be true,
for others not. The validity of conversion to inner join is checked
only once and it happens only for the first call of procedure.
So if the parameters in the first call allowed the conversion it
was done and next calls used the transformed query though there
could be calls whose parameters made the conversion invalid.
Fixed by cheking whether the constant disjunct in the ON expression
originally contained an SP parameter. If so the expression is not
considered as null-rejected. For this check a new item's attribute
was intruduced: Item::with_param. It is calculated for each item
by fix fields() functions.
Also moved the call of optimize_constant_subqueries() in
JOIN::optimize after the call of simplify_joins(). The reason
for this is that after the optimization introduced by the patch
for mdev-4817 simplify_joins() can use the results of execution
of non-expensive constant subqueries and this is not valid.
It has been done to demonstrate that the fix of this bug is good for 10.3
as well. The previous test case is not good for this purpose because
10.2 and 10.3 use different rules for determining the types of recursive
CTEs.
Modern compilers (such as GCC 8) emit warnings that the
'register' keyword is deprecated and not valid C++17.
Let us remove most use of the 'register' keyword.
Code in 'extra/' is not touched.
Counter for select numbering made stored with the statement (before was global)
So now it does have always accurate value which does not depend on
interruption of statement prepare by errors like lack of table in
a view definition.
MDEV-14957: JOIN::prepare gets unusable "conds" as argument
Do not touch merged derived (it is irreversible)
Fix first argument of in_optimizer for calls possible before fix_fields()
The assertion failure was caused by an incorrectly set read_set for
functions in the ORDER BY clause in part of a union, when we are using
a mergeable view and the order by clause can be skipped (removed).
An order by clause can be skipped if it's part of one part of the UNION as
the result set is not meaningful when multiple SELECT queries are UNIONed. The
server is aware of this optimization and tries to remove the order by
clause before JOIN::prepare. The problem is that we need to throw an
error when the ORDER BY clause contains invalid columns. To do this, we
attempt resolving the ORDER BY expressions, then subsequently drop them
if resolution succeeded. However, ORDER BY resolution had the side
effect of adding the expressions to the all_fields list, which is used
to construct temporary tables to store the result. We may be ignoring
the ORDER BY statement, but the tmp table still tried to compute the
values for the expressions, even if the columns are never used.
The assertion only shows itself if the order by clause contains members
which were not previously in the select list, and are part of a
function.
There is an additional question as to why this only manifests when using
VIEWS and not when using a regular table. The difference lies with the
"reset" of the read_set for the temporary table during
SELECT_LEX::update_used_tables() in JOIN::optimize(). The changes
introduced in fdf789a7ea cleared the
read_set when a mergeable view is encountered in the TABLE_LIST
defintion.
Upon initial order_list resolution, the table's read_set is updated
correctly. JOIN::optimize() will only reset the read_set if it
encounters a VIEW. Since we no longer have ORDER BY clause in
JOIN::optimize() we never get to correctly update the read_set again.

resolution when we "can_skip_sort_order":

Solution:
Don't add the resolved ORDER BY elements to all_fields. We only resolve
them to check if an error should be returned for the query. Ignore them
completely otherwise.
join_tab->distinct=true means "Before doing record read with this
join_tab, call join_tab->remove_duplicates() to eliminate duplicates".
remove_duplicates() assumes that
- there is a temporary table $T with rows that are to be de-duplicated
- there is a previous join_tab (e.g. with join_tab->fields) which was
used to populate the temp.table $T.
When the query has "Impossible WHERE" and window function, then the above
conditions are not met (but we still might need a window function
computation step when the query has implicit grouping).
The fix is to not add remove_duplicates step if the select execution is
degenerate (and we'll have at most one row in the output anyway).
TRASH was mapped to TRASH_FREE and was supposed to be used for memory
that should not be accessed anymore, while TRASH_ALLOC() is to be
used for uninitialized but to-be-used memory.
But sometimes TRASH() was used in the latter sense.
Remove TRASH() macro, always use explicit TRASH_ALLOC() or TRASH_FREE().
In this case we were using the optimization derived_with_keys but we could not create a key
because the length of the key was greater than the max allowed(MI_MAX_KEY_LENGTH).
To do the join we needed to create a hash join key instead, but in the explain output it
showed that we were still referring to derived keys which were created but not used.
