query with VALUES()
A table value constructor can be used in all contexts where a select
can be used. In particular an ORDER BY clause or a LIMIT clause or both
of them can be attached to a table value constructor to produce a new
query. Unfortunately execution of such queries was not supported.
This patch fixes the problem.
The problem described in the bug report happened because the code
did not test check_cols(1) after fix_fields() in a few places.
Additionally, fix_fields() could be called multiple times for SP variables,
because they are all fixed at a early stage in append_for_log().
Solution:
1. Adding a few helper methods
- fix_fields_if_needed()
- fix_fields_if_needed_for_scalar()
- fix_fields_if_needed_for_bool()
- fix_fields_if_needed_for_order_by()
and using it in many cases instead of fix_fields() where
the "fixed" status is not definitely known to be "false".
2. Adding DBUG_ASSERT(!fixed) into Item_splocal*::fix_fields()
to catch double execution.
3. Adding tests.
As a good side effect, the patch removes a lot of duplicate code (~60 lines):
if (!item->fixed &&
item->fix_fields(..) &&
item->check_cols(1))
return true;
set the pointer to NULL to avoid double-free
when the item is cleaned up many times
(once in JOIN_TAB::cleanup(): tmp->jtbm_subselect->cleanup()
and once at the end of the query, with all other items)
Make sure that SELECT_LEX_UNIT::derived, behaves as documented
(points to the "TABLE_LIST representing this union in the
embedding select"). For recursive CTE this was not necessarily
the case, it could've pointed to the TABLE_LIST inside the CTE,
not in the embedding select.
To fix:
* don't update unit->derived in mysql_derived_prepare(), pass derived
as an argument to st_select_lex_unit::prepare()
* prefer to set unit->derived in TABLE_LIST::init_derived()
to the TABLE_LIST in the embedding select, not to the recursive
reference. Fail if there are many TABLE_LISTs in the embedding
select with conflicting FOR SYSTEM_TIME clauses.
cleanup:
* remove redundant THD* argument from st_select_lex_unit::prepare()
For the query having an IN subquery with no tables, we were converting the subquery with an expression between
the left part and the select list of the subquery . This can give incorrect results when we have a condition
in the subquery with a dual table (as this is treated as a no table).
The fix is that we don't do this conversion when we have conds in the subquery with a dual table.
Handle string length as size_t, consistently (almost always:))
Change function prototypes to accept size_t, where in the past
ulong or uint were used. change local/member variables to size_t
when appropriate.
This fix excludes rocksdb, spider,spider, sphinx and connect for now.
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 "")
caused an error
The function subselect_single_select_engine::print() did not print
the WITH clause attached to a subselect with single select engine.
As a result views using suqueries with attached WITH clauses lost
these clauses when saved in frm files.
Make differentiation between pullout for merge and pulout of outer field during exists2in transformation.
In last case the field was outer and so we can safely start from name resolution context of the SELECT where it was pulled.
Old behavior lead to inconsistence between list of tables and outer name resolution context (which skips one SELECT for merge purposes) which creates problem vor name resolution.
As a result of this merge the code for the following tasks appears in 10.3:
- MDEV-12172 Implement tables specified by table value constructors
- MDEV-12176 Transform [NOT] IN predicate with long list of values INTO
[NOT] IN subquery.
