Fields belonging to views in general cannot be substituted for
equal items, in particular for constants, because all references
to a view field refer to the same Item_field object while they
could be used in different OR parts of the where condition and
belong to different equivalence classes (to different Item_equals).
That's why substitution for equal items in any context is allowed
only in place of Item_direct_view_ref objects, but not in place of
Item_fields these objects refer to.
Due to some erroneous code in the patch for bug 717577 substitution
for view fields were allowed in some context.This could lead
to wrong results returned by queries using views.
The fix prohibits substitution of view fields for equal items
in any context.
The patch also changes slightly the compile method for the Item_func
class. Now if the analyze method returns NULL in his parameter the
compile method is not called for the arguments of the function
at all. A similar change was made for the Item_ref class.
sql/sql_select.cc:
- Threat all clustered indexes equal in test_if_skip_sort_order().
This is a temporary fix as the current code doesn't do proper cost analyizes for which index to use.
I will address this later as the change required is not trivial.
- Fixed a bug where select_limit was changed in the loop, which made different indexes see diferent values of select_limit
- Added a lot of code comments
- Updated get_best_ror_intersec() to prefer index scan on not clustered keys before clustered keys.
- Use HA_CLUSTERED_INDEX to define if one should use HA_MRR_INDEX_ONLY
- For test of using index or filesort to resolve ORDER BY, use HA_CLUSTERED_INDEX flag instead of primary_key_is_clustered()
- Use HA_TABLE_SCAN_ON_INDEX instead of primary_key_is_clustered() to decide if ALTER TABLE ... ORDER BY will have any effect.

When a view is merged into a select all the depended_from fields
pointing to the select of the view should have been corrected to
point to the select where the view is used. It was not done yet.
This could lead to wrong results returned by queries such as
one from the test case for bug 33389.
Correction of outer references required walking through all items
of the proccesed qurery. To avoid this the following solution was
implemented.
Each select now contains a pointer to the select it is merged into
(if there is any). Such pointers allow to get the corrected value
of depended_from on the fly. The function Item_ident::get_depended_from
was introduced for this purpose.
Resolved all conflicts, bad merges and fixed a few minor bugs in the code.
Commented out the queries from multi_update, view, subselect_sj, func_str,
derived_view, view_grant that failed either with crashes in ps-protocol or
with wrong results.
The failures are clear indications of some bugs in the code and these bugs
are to be fixed.
Analysis:
The subquery is evaluated first during ref-optimization of the outer
query because the subquery is considered constant from the perspective
of the outer query. Thus an attempt is made to evaluate the MAX subquery
and use the new constant to drive an index nested loops join.
During this evaluation the inner-most subquery replaces the JOIN_TAB
with a new one that fetches the data from a temp table.
The function select_describe crashes at the lines:
TABLE_LIST *real_table= table->pos_in_table_list;
item_list.push_back(new Item_string(real_table->alias,
strlen(real_table->alias),
cs));
because 'table' is a temp table, and it has no corresponding table
reference. This 'real_table' is NULL, and real_table->alias results
in a crash.
Solution:
In the spirit of MWL#89 prevent the evaluation of expensive predicates
during optimization. This patch prevents the evaluation of expensive
predicates during ref optimization.
sql/item_subselect.h:
Remove unused class member. Not needed for the fix, but noticed now and removed.
RESULT CONSISTED OF MORE THAN ONE ROW
MySQL converts incorrect DATEs and DATETIMEs to '0000-00-00' on
insertion by default. This means that this sequence is possible:
CREATE TABLE t1(date_notnull DATE NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO t1 values (NULL);
SELECT * FROM t1;
0000-00-00
At the same time, ODBC drivers do not (or at least did not in the
90's) understand the DATE and DATETIME value '0000-00-00'. Thus,
to be able to query for the value 0000-00-00 it was decided in
MySQL 4.x (or maybe even before that) that for the special case
of DATE/DATETIME NOT NULL columns, the query "SELECT ... WHERE
date_notnull IS NULL" should return rows with date_notnull ==
'0000-00-00'. This is documented misbehavior that we do not want
to change.
The hack used to make MySQL return these rows is to convert
"date_notnull IS NULL" to "date_notnull = 0". This is, however,
only done if the table date_notnull belongs to is not an inner
table of an outer join. The rationale for this seems to be that
if there is no join match for the row in the outer table,
null-complemented rows would otherwise not be returned because
the null-complemented DATE value is actually NULL. On the other
hand, this means that the "return rows with 0000-00-00 when the
query asks for IS NULL"-hack is not in effect for outer joins.
In this bug, we have a LEFT JOIN that does not misbehave like
the documentation says it should. The fix is to rewrite
"date_notnull IS NULL" to "date_notnull IS NULL OR
date_notnull = 0"
if dealing with an OUTER JOIN, otherwise
"date_notnull IS NULL" to "date_notnull = 0"
as was done before.
Note:
The bug was originally reported as different result on first
and second execution of SP. The reason was that during first
execution the query was correctly rewritten to an inner join
due to a null-rejecting predicate. On second execution the
"IS NULL" -> "= 0" rewrite was done because there was no outer
join. The real problem, though, was incorrect date/datetime
IS NULL handling for OUTER JOINs.

- In eliminate_item_equal(), we could end up in a situation where:
= The multiple equality has a constant C1 (and so it is the "head item")
= The join order was such that we've generated "sj_inner_table1=C1" equality,
and now are looking to generate "sj_inner_table2_=..." equality.
When looking for what should be the other member of equality, we run
Item *head_item= current_sjm? current_sjm_head: head;
which sees current_sjm!=NULL, and takes current_sjm_head (which is NULL because
the constant C1 is the head for all cases).
- Fixed in a trivial way: take current_sjm_head if we don't have constant.
Analysis:
The method st_select_lex::optimize_unflattened_subqueries()
incorrectly propagated to each subquery the complete
select_options flag set for the whole query. Among other
flags in select_options, this propagated incorrectly the
STRAIGHT_JOIN flag from the upper query to the subquery.
Solution:
During EXPLAIN set only the SELECT_DESCRIBE bit in the
select_options of the subquery.
The third parameter in the call of make_cond_for_table() that
built the pushed condition containing only outer references
was incorrect. This condition appeared for the first time in
the patch fixing bug 729039.

Both these two bugs happened due to the following problem.
When a view column is referenced in the query an Item_direct_view_ref
object is created that is refers to the Item_field for the column.
All references to the same view column refer to the same Item_field.
Different references can belong to different AND/OR levels and,
as a result, can be included in different Item_equal object.
These Item_equal objects may include different constant objects.
If these constant objects are substituted for the Item_field created
for a view column we have a conflict situation when the second
substitution annuls the first substitution. This leads to
wrong result sets returned by the query. Bug #724942 demonstrates
such an erroneous behaviour.
Test case of the bug #717577 produces wrong result sets because best
equal fields of the multiple equalities built for different OR levels
of the WHERE condition differs. The subsitution for the best equal field
in the second OR branch overwrites the the substitution made for the
first branch.
To avoid such conflicts we have to substitute for the references
to the view columns rather than for the underlying field items.
To make such substitutions possible we have to include into
multiple equalities references to view columns rather than
field items created for such columns.
This patch modifies the Item_equal class to include references
to view columns into multiple equality objects. It also performs
a clean up of the class methods and adds more comments. The methods
of the Item_direct_view_ref class that assist substitutions for
references to view columns has been also added by this patch.
Analysis:
The wrong result is a consquence of sorting the subquery
result and then selecting only the first row due to the
artificial LIMIT 1 introduced by the fix_fields phase.
Normally, if there is an ORDER BY in a subquery, the ORDER
is removed (Item_in_subselect::select_in_like_transformer),
however if a GROUP BY is transformed into ORDER, this happens
later, after the removal of the ORDER clause of subqueries, so
we end up with a subquery with an ORDER clause, and an artificially
added LIMIT 1.
The reason why the same works in the main 5.3 without MWL#89, is
that the 5.3 performs all subquery transformations, including
IN->EXISTS before JOIN::optimize(). The beginning of JOIN::optimize
does:
if (having || (select_options & OPTION_FOUND_ROWS))
select_limit= HA_POS_ERROR;
which sets the limit back to infinity, thus 5.3 sorts the whole
subquery result, and IN performs the lookup into all subquery result
rows.
Solution:
Sorting of subqueries without LIMIT is meaningless. Since LIMIT in
subqueries is not supported, the patch removes sorting by setting
join->skip_sort_order= true
for each subquery JOIN object. This improves a number of execution
plans to not perform unnecessary sorting at all.
Before sorting HAVING condition is split into two parts,
first part is a table related condition and the rest of is
HAVING part. Extraction of HAVING part does not take into account
the fact that some of conditions might be non-const but
have 'used_tables' == 0 (independent subqueries)
and because of that these conditions are cut off by
make_cond_for_table() function.
The fix is to use (table_map) 0 instead of used_tables in
third argument for make_cond_for_table() function.
It allows to extract elements which belong to sorted
table and in addition elements which are independend
subqueries.

There are two problems with ANALYSE():
1. Memory leak
it happens because do_select() can overwrite
JOIN::procedure field(with zero value in our case) and
JOIN destructor don't free the memory allocated for
JOIN::procedure. The fix is to save original JOIN::procedure
before do_select() call and restore it after do_select
execution.
2. Wrong result
If ANALYSE() procedure is used for the statement with LIMIT clause
it could retrun empty result set. It happens because of missing
analyse::end_of_records() call. First end_send() function call
returns NESTED_LOOP_QUERY_LIMIT and second call of end_send() with
end_of_records flag enabled does not happen. The fix is to return
NESTED_LOOP_OK from end_send() if procedure is active.
