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;
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()
is not supported
Allowed to use recursive references in derived tables.
As a result usage of recursive references in operands of
INTERSECT / EXCEPT is now supported.
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 "")
MDEV-14957: JOIN::prepare gets unusable "conds" as argument
Do not touch merged derived (it is irreversible)
Fix first argument of in_optimizer for calls possible before fix_fields()
trx_undo_page_report_modify(): For SPATIAL INDEX, keep logging
updated off-page columns twice, so that
the minimum bounding rectangle (MBR) will be logged.
Avoiding the redundant logging would require larger changes
to the undo log format.
row_build_index_entry_low(): Handle SPATIAL_UNKNOWN more robustly,
by refusing to purge the record from the spatial index.
We can get this code when processing old undo log from 10.2.10 or
10.2.11 (the releases affected by MDEV-14799, which was a regression
from MDEV-14051).
If translation table present when we materialize the derived table then
change it to point to the materialized table.
Added debug info to see really what happens with what derived.
TODO:
- Make get_thd_memroot() inline
- To do this, we need to reduce dependence of include files, especially
so that sql_class.h is not depending in item.h
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.
- Fix win64 pointer truncation warnings
(usually coming from misusing 0x%lx and long cast in DBUG)
- Also fix printf-format warnings
Make the above mentioned warnings fatal.
- fix pthread_join on Windows to set return value.
Currently condition pushdown into materialized views / derived tables
is not implemented yet (see mdev-12387) and grouping views are
optimized early when subqueries are converted to semi-joins in
convert_join_subqueries_to_semijoins(). If a subquery that is converted
to a semi-join uses a grouping view this view is optimized in two phases.
For such a view V only the first phase of optimization is done after
the conversion of subqueries of the outer join into semi-joins.
At the same time the reference of the view V appears in the join
expression of the outer join. In fixed code there was an attempt to push
conditions into this view and to optimize it after this. This triggered
the second phase of the optimization of the view and it was done
prematurely. The second phase of the optimization for the materialized
view is supposed to be called after the splitting condition is pushed
into the view in the call of JOIN::improve_chosen_plan for the outer
join.
The fix blocks the attempt to push conditions into splittable views
if they have been already partly optimized and the following
optimization for them.
The test case of the patch shows that the code for mdev-13369
basically supported the splitting technique for materialized views /
derived tables.
The patch also replaces the name of the state JOIN::OPTIMIZATION_IN_STAGE_2
for JOIN::OPTIMIZATION_PHASE_1_DONE and fixes a bug in
TABLE_LIST::fetch_number_of_rows()
- 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
It allows to push conditions into derived with window functions not
only in the cases when the window specifications of these window
functions use the same partition, but also in the cases when the window
functions use partitions that share only some fields. In these
cases only the conditions over the common fields are pushed.
with window functions (mdev-10855).
This patch just modified the function pushdown_cond_for_derived()
to support this feature.
Some test cases demonstrating this optimization were added to
derived_cond_pushdown.test.
"Optimization for equi-joins of derived tables with GROUP BY"
should be considered rather as a 'proof of concept'.
The task itself is targeted at an optimization that employs re-writing
equi-joins with grouping derived tables / views into lateral
derived tables. Here's an example of such transformation:
select t1.a,t.max,t.min
from t1 [left] join
(select a, max(t2.b) max, min(t2.b) min from t2
group by t2.a) as t
on t1.a=t.a;
=>
select t1.a,tl.max,tl.min
from t1 [left] join
lateral (select a, max(t2.b) max, min(t2.b) min from t2
where t1.a=t2.a) as t
on 1=1;
The transformation pushes the equi-join condition t1.a=t.a into the
derived table making it dependent on table t1. It means that for
every row from t1 a new derived table must be filled out. However
the size of any of these derived tables is just a fraction of the
original derived table t. One could say that transformation 'splits'
the rows used for the GROUP BY operation into separate groups
performing aggregation for a group only in the case when there is
a match for the current row of t1.
Apparently the transformation may produce a query with a better
performance only in the case when
- the GROUP BY list refers only to fields returned by the derived table
- there is an index I on one of the tables T used in FROM list of
the specification of the derived table whose prefix covers the
the fields from the proper beginning of the GROUP BY list or
fields that are equal to those fields.
Whether the result of the re-writing can be executed faster depends
on many factors:
- the size of the original derived table
- the size of the table T
- whether the index I is clustering for table T
- whether the index I fully covers the GROUP BY list.
This patch only tries to improve the chosen execution plan using
this transformation. It tries to do it only when the chosen
plan reaches the derived table by a key whose prefix covers
all the fields of the derived table produced by the fields of
the table T from the GROUP BY list.
The code of the patch does not evaluates the cost of the improved
plan. If certain conditions are met the transformation is applied.
The bug is result adding ability to have derived tables inside views.
Fixed checks should be a switch between view/derived or select derived and information schema.
This patch fills in a serious flaw in the
code that supports condition pushdown into
materialized views / derived tables.
If a predicate happened to contain a reference
to a mergeable view / derived table and it does
not depended directly on the target materialized
view / derived table then the predicate was not
considered as a subject to pusdown to this view
/ derived table.
The bug happened when the specification of a recursive CTE had
no recursive references at the top level of the specification.
In this case the regular processing of derived table references
of the select containing a non-recursive reference to this
recursive CTE misses handling the specification unit.
At the preparation stage any non-recursive reference to a
recursive CTE must be handled after the preparation of the
specification unit for this CTE. So we have to force this
preparation when regular handling of derived tables does not
do it.
