PARTITION STATISTICS Problem was the fix for bug#11756867; It always used the first partitions, and stopped after it checked 10 [sub]partitions. (or until it found a partition which would contain a match). This results in bad statistics for tables where the first 10 partitions don't represent the majority of the data (like when the first 10 partitions only contained a few rows in total). The solution was to take statisics from the partitions containing the most rows instead: Added an array of partition ids which is sorted by number of records in descending order. this array is used in records_in_range to cover as many records as possible in as few calls as possible. Also changed the limit of how many partitions to use for the statistics from a static max of 10 partitions, into a dynamic model: Maximum number of partitions is now log2(total number of partitions) taken from the ordered array. It will continue calling partitions records_in_range until it has checked: (total rows in matching partitions) * (maximum number of partitions) / (number of used partitions) Also reverted the changes for ha_partition::scan_time() and ha_partition::estimate_rows_upper_bound() to before the fix of bug#11756867. Since they are not as slow as records_in_range.
This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it. Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not conflict with it. All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the problem: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-test-suite.html If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests, use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode, the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run. For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests with an external server: mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and other relevant options. With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some tests cannot run with an external server. You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test extension. For example: xemacs t/test_case_name.test In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables, load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it. We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not conflict too much with existing tables). Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and end by dropping them again. This ensures that you can run the test over and over again. If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your test case, you should create the result file as follows: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name or mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify that the bug is corrected in future releases. To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail to bugs@lists.mysql.com
