During optimization stage the WHERE conditions can be changed or even
be removed at all if they know for sure to be true of false. Thus they aren't
showed in the EXPLAIN EXTENDED which prints conditions after optimization.
Now if all elements of an Item_cond were removed this Item_cond is substituted
for an Item_int with the int value of the Item_cond.
If there were conditions that were totally optimized away then values of the
saved cond_value and having_value will be printed instead.
Functions over sum functions wasn't set up correctly for the ORDER BY clause
which leads to a wrong order of the result set.
The split_sum_func() function is called now for each ORDER BY item that
contains a sum function to set it up correctly.
The flag alias_name_used was not set on for the outer references
in subqueries. It resulted in replacement of any outer reference
resolved against an alias for a full field name when the frm
representation of a view with a subquery was generated.
If the subquery and the outer query referenced the same table in
their from lists this replacement effectively changed the meaning
of the view and led to wrong results for selects from this view.
Modified several functions to ensure setting the right value of
the alias_name_used flag for outer references resolved against
aliases.
When the ORDER BY clause gets fixed it's allowed to search in the current
item_list in order to find aliased fields and expressions. This is ok for a
SELECT but wrong for an UPDATE statement. If the ORDER BY clause will
contain a non-existing field which is mentioned in the UPDATE set list
then the server will crash due to using of non-existing (0x0) field.
When an Item_field is getting fixed it's allowed to search item list for
aliased expressions and fields only for selects.
created for sorting.
Any outer reference in a subquery was represented by an Item_field object.
If the outer select employs a temporary table all such fields should be
replaced with fields from that temporary table in order to point to the
actual data. This replacement wasn't done and that resulted in a wrong
subquery evaluation and a wrong result of the whole query.
Now any outer field is represented by two objects - Item_field placed in the
outer select and Item_outer_ref in the subquery. Item_field object is
processed as a normal field and the reference to it is saved in the
ref_pointer_array. Thus the Item_outer_ref is always references the correct
field. The original field is substituted for a reference in the
Item_field::fix_outer_field() function.
New function called fix_inner_refs() is added to fix fields referenced from
inner selects and to fix references (Item_ref objects) to these fields.
The new Item_outer_ref class is a descendant of the Item_direct_ref class.
It additionally stores a reference to the original field and designed to
behave more like a field.
UPDATE contains wrong data if the SELECT employs a temporary table.
If the UPDATE values of the INSERT .. SELECT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
statement contains fields from the SELECT part and the select employs a
temporary table then those fields will contain wrong values because they
aren't corrected to get data from the temporary table.
The solution is to add these fields to the selects all_fields list,
to store pointers to those fields in the selects ref_pointer_array and
to access them via Item_ref objects.
The substitution for Item_ref objects is done in the new function called
Item_field::update_value_transformer(). It is called through the
item->transform() mechanism at the end of the select_insert::prepare()
function.
were evaluated.
According to the new rules for string comparison partial indexes on text
columns can be used in the same cases when partial indexes on varchar
columns can be used.
The crash happens because second filling of the same I_S table happens in
case of subselect with order by. table->sort.io_cache previously allocated
in create_sort_index() is deleted during second filling
(function get_schema_tables_result). There are two places where
I_S table can be filled: JOIN::exec and create_sort_index().
To fix the bug we should check if the table was already filled
in one of these places and skip processing of the table in second.
The function make_unireg_sortorder ignored the fact that any
view field is represented by a 'ref' object.
This could lead to wrong results for the queries containing
both GROUP BY and ORDER BY clauses.
The optimizer takes away columns from GROUP BY/DISTINCT if they constitute
all the parts of an unique index.
However if some of the columns can contain NULLs this cannot be done
(because an UNIQUE index can have multiple rows with NULL values).
Fixed by not using UNIQUE indexes with nullable columns to remove
grouping columns from GROUP BY/DISTINCT.
Depending on the queries we use different data processing methods
and can lose some data in case of double (and decimal in 4.1) fields.
The fix consists of two parts:
1. double comparison changed, now double a is equal to double b
if (a-b) is less than 5*0.1^(1 + max(a->decimals, b->decimals)).
For example, if a->decimals==1, b->decimals==2, a==b if (a-b)<0.005
2. if we use a temporary table, store double values there as is
to avoid any data conversion (rounding).
Made the function opt_sum_query to return HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND when
no matches were found (instead of -1 it returned prior this patch).
This changes allow us to avoid possible conflicts with return values
from user-defined handler methods which also may return -1.
No particular test cases are provided with this fix.
The bug report has demonstrated the following two problems.
1. If an ORDER/GROUP BY list includes a constant expression being
optimized away and, at the same time, containing single-row
subselects that return more that one row, no error is reported.
Strictly speaking the standard allows to ignore error in this case.
Yet, now a corresponding fatal error is reported in this case.
2. If a query requires sorting by expressions containing single-row
subselects that, however, return more than one row, then the execution
of the query may cause a server crash.
To fix this some code has been added that blocks execution of a subselect
item in case of a fatal error in the method Item_subselect::exec.
After fix for bug#21798 JOIN stores the pointer to the buffer for sorting
fields. It is used while sorting for grouping and for ordering. If ORDER BY
clause has more elements then the GROUP BY clause then a memory overrun occurs.
Now the length of the ORDER BY list is always passed to the
make_unireg_sortorder() function and it allocates buffer big enough to be
used for bigger list.
of untouched rows in full table scans".
SELECT ... FOR UPDATE/LOCK IN SHARE MODE statements as well as
UPDATE/DELETE statements which were executed using full table
scan were not releasing locks on rows which didn't satisfy
WHERE condition.
This bug surfaced in 5.0 and affected NDB tables. (InnoDB tables
intentionally don't support such unlocking in default mode).
This problem occured because code implementing join didn't call
handler::unlock_row() for rows which didn't satisfy part of condition
attached to this particular table/level of nested loop. So we solve
the problem adding this call.
Note that we already had this call in place in 4.1 but it was lost
(actually not quite correctly placed) when we have introduced nested
joins.
Also note that additional QA should be requested once this patch is
pushed as interaction between handler::unlock_row() and many recent
MySQL features such as subqueries, unions, views is not tested enough.
- Make the code produce correct result: use an array of triggers to turn on/off equalities for each
compared column. Also turn on/off optimizations based on those equalities.
- Make EXPLAIN output show "Full scan on NULL key" for tables for which we switch between
ref/unique_subquery/index_subquery and ALL access.
- index_subquery engine now has HAVING clause when it is needed, and it is
displayed in EXPLAIN EXTENDED
- Fix incorrect presense of "Using index" for index/unique-based subqueries (BUG#22930)
// bk trigger note: this commit refers to BUG#24127
Currently in the ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY mode no hidden fields are allowed in the
select list. To ensure this each expression in the select list is checked
to be a constant, an aggregate function or to occur in the GROUP BY list.
The last two requirements are wrong and doesn't allow valid expressions like
"MAX(b) - MIN(b)" or "a + 1" in a query with grouping by a.
The correct check implemented by the patch will ensure that:
any field reference in the [sub]expressions of the select list
is under an aggregate function or
is mentioned as member of the group list or
is an outer reference or
is part of the select list element that coincide with a grouping element.
The Item_field objects now can contain the position of the select list
expression which they belong to. The position is saved during the
field's Item_field::fix_fields() call.
The non_agg_fields list for non-aggregated fields is added to the SELECT_LEX
class. The SELECT_LEX::cur_pos_in_select_list now contains the position in the
select list of the expression being currently fixed.
The optimizer removes expressions from GROUP BY/DISTINCT
if they happen to participate in a <expression> = <const>
predicates of the WHERE clause (the idea being that if
it's always equal to a constant it can't have multiple
values).
However for predicates where the expression and the
constant item are of different result type this is not
valid (e.g. a string column compared to 0).
Fixed by additional check of the result types of the
expression and the constant and if they differ the
expression don't get removed from the group by list.
