Prototype change:
- virtual ha_rows records_in_range(uint inx, key_range *min_key,
- key_range *max_key)
+ virtual ha_rows records_in_range(uint inx, const key_range *min_key,
+ const key_range *max_key,
+ page_range *res)
The handler can ignore the page_range parameter. In the case the handler
updates the parameter, the optimizer can deduce the following:
- If previous range's last key is on the same block as next range's first
key
- If the current key range is in one block
- We can also assume that the first and last block read are cached!
This can be used for a better calculation of IO seeks when we
estimate the cost of a range index scan.
The parameter is fully implemented for MyISAM, Aria and InnoDB.
A separate patch will update handler::multi_range_read_info_const() to
take the benefits of this change and also remove the double
records_in_range() calls that are not anymore needed.
e.g.
- dont -> don't
- occurence -> occurrence
- succesfully -> successfully
- easyly -> easily
Also remove trailing space in selected files.
These changes span:
- server core
- Connect and Innobase storage engine code
- OQgraph, Sphinx and TokuDB storage engines
Related to MDEV-21769.
There's an annoying bug that prevents a Sphinx table to connect to a searchd using a host name.
So the example table in the documentation https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/about-sphinxse/#basic-usage that point's to "localhost" actually doesn't work.
After some investigation I found two errors. The first one is a wrong check after the getaddrinfo call. The second is a wrong usage of the returned struct.
Use thd_get_ha_data()/thd_set_ha_data() which protect against plugin
removal until it has THD ha_data.
Do not reset THD ha_data in sphinx_close_connection(), cleaner approach
is to let ha_close_connection() do it.
Part of MDEV-19515 - Improve connect speed
- Removed test if HA_FT_WTYPE == HA_KEYTYPE_FLOAT as this never worked
(HA_KEYTYPE_FLOAT is an enum)
- Define HA_FT_MAXLEN to 126 (was tested before but never defined)
This was done in, among other things:
- thd->db and thd->db_length
- TABLE_LIST tablename, db, alias and schema_name
- Audit plugin database name
- lex->db
- All db and table names in Alter_table_ctx
- st_select_lex db
Other things:
- Changed a lot of functions to take const LEX_CSTRING* as argument
for db, table_name and alias. See init_one_table() as an example.
- Changed some function arguments from LEX_CSTRING to const LEX_CSTRING
- Changed some lists from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING
- threads_mysql.result changed because process list_db wasn't always
correctly updated
- New append_identifier() function that takes LEX_CSTRING* as arguments
- Added new element tmp_buff to Alter_table_ctx to separate temp name
handling from temporary space
- Ensure we store the length after my_casedn_str() of table/db names
- Removed not used version of rename_table_in_stat_tables()
- Changed Natural_join_column::table_name and db_name() to never return
NULL (used for print)
- thd->get_db() now returns db as a printable string (thd->db.str or "")
- Added sql/mariadb.h file that should be included first by files in sql
directory, if sql_plugin.h is not used (sql_plugin.h adds SHOW variables
that must be done before my_global.h is included)
- Removed a lot of include my_global.h from include files
- Removed include's of some files that my_global.h automatically includes
- Removed duplicated include's of my_sys.h
- Replaced include my_config.h with my_global.h
Benefits of this patch:
- Removed a lot of calls to strlen(), especially for field_string
- Strings generated by parser are now const strings, less chance of
accidently changing a string
- Removed a lot of calls with LEX_STRING as parameter (changed to pointer)
- More uniform code
- Item::name_length was not kept up to date. Now fixed
- Several bugs found and fixed (Access to null pointers,
access of freed memory, wrong arguments to printf like functions)
- Removed a lot of casts from (const char*) to (char*)
Changes:
- This caused some ABI changes
- lex_string_set now uses LEX_CSTRING
- Some fucntions are now taking const char* instead of char*
- Create_field::change and after changed to LEX_CSTRING
- handler::connect_string, comment and engine_name() changed to LEX_CSTRING
- Checked printf() related calls to find bugs. Found and fixed several
errors in old code.
- A lot of changes from LEX_STRING to LEX_CSTRING, especially related to
parsing and events.
- Some changes from LEX_STRING and LEX_STRING & to LEX_CSTRING*
- Some changes for char* to const char*
- Added printf argument checking for my_snprintf()
- Introduced null_clex_str, star_clex_string, temp_lex_str to simplify
code
- Added item_empty_name and item_used_name to be able to distingush between
items that was given an empty name and items that was not given a name
This is used in sql_yacc.yy to know when to give an item a name.
- select table_name."*' is not anymore same as table_name.*
- removed not used function Item::rename()
- Added comparision of item->name_length before some calls to
my_strcasecmp() to speed up comparison
- Moved Item_sp_variable::make_field() from item.h to item.cc
- Some minimal code changes to avoid copying to const char *
- Fixed wrong error message in wsrep_mysql_parse()
- Fixed wrong code in find_field_in_natural_join() where real_item() was
set when it shouldn't
- ER_ERROR_ON_RENAME was used with extra arguments.
- Removed some (wrong) ER_OUTOFMEMORY, as alloc_root will already
give the error.
TODO:
- Check possible unsafe casts in plugin/auth_examples/qa_auth_interface.c
- Change code to not modify LEX_CSTRING for database name
(as part of lower_case_table_names)
This was done to make it clear that a update_row() should not change the
row.
This was not done for handler::write_row() as this function still needs
to update auto_increment values in the row. This should at some point
be moved to handler::ha_write_row() after which write_row can also have
const arguments.
