Make SEL_ARG::make_root() maintain SEL_ARG::weight.
Also, an unrelated change: fix dbug_print_sel_arg() to correctly
print SQL NULL for the right endpoint.
Note they key_or() may call tree_delete(), which will cause the weight
asserts to be checked. In order to avoid them from firing, update key1
tree's weight after we've changed key1->some_local_child->next_key_part.
Having done that, do we still need this at the function end:
/* Re-compute the result tree's weight. */
key1->update_weight_locally();
?
The problem was in and_all_keys(), the code of MDEV-9759 which calculates
the new tree weight:
First, it didn't take into account the case when
(next->next_key_part=tmp) == NULL
and dereferenced a NULL pointer when getting tmp->weight.
Second, "if (param->alloced_sel_args > SEL_ARG::MAX_SEL_ARGS) break"
could leave the loop with incorrect value of weight.
Fixed by introducing SEL_ARG::update_weight_locally() and calling it
at the end of the function. This allows to avoid caring about all the
above cases.
Also update the SEL_ARG graph weight in:
- sel_add()
- SEL_ARG::clone()
Make key_{and,or}_with_limit() to also verify weight for the arguments
(There is no single point to verify SEL_ARG graphs constructed from
conditions that are not AND-OR formulas, so we hope that those are
connected with AND/OR and do it here).
(Variant #5, full patch, for 10.5)
Do not produce SEL_ARG graphs that would yield huge numbers of ranges.
Introduce a concept of SEL_ARG graph's "weight". If we are about to
produce a graph whose "weight" exceeds the limit, remove the parts
of SEL_ARG graph that represent the biggest key parts. Do so until
the graph's is within the limit.
Includes
- debug code to verify SEL_ARG graph weight
- A user-visible @@optimizer_max_sel_arg_weight to control the optimization
- Logging the optimization into the optimizer trace.
