- Make the range-et-al optimizer produce E(#table records after table
condition is applied),
- Make the join optimizer use this value,
- Add "filtered" column to EXPLAIN EXTENDED to show
fraction of records left after table condition is applied
- Adjust test results, add comments
The problem was in that opt_sum_query() replaced MIN/MAX functions
with the corresponding constant found in a key, but due to imprecise
representation of float numbers, when evaluating the where clause,
this comparison failed.
When MIN/MAX optimization detects that all tables can be removed,
also remove all conjuncts in a where clause that refer to these
tables. As a result of this fix, these conditions are not evaluated
twice, and in the case of float number comparisons we do not discard
result rows due to imprecise float representation.
As a side-effect this fix also corrects an unnoticed problem in
bug 12882.
An aggregate function reference was resolved incorrectly and
caused a crash in count_field_types.
Must use real_item() to get to the real Item instance through
the reference
The bug report revealed two problems related to min/max optimization:
1. If the length of a constant key used in a SARGable condition for
for the MIN/MAX fields is greater than the length of the field an
unwanted warning on key truncation is issued;
2. If MIN/MAX optimization is applied to a partial index, like INDEX(b(4))
than can lead to returning a wrong result set.

Item equal objects are employed only at the optimize phase. Usually they are not
supposed to be evaluated. Yet in some cases we call the method val_int() for
them. Here we have to take care of restricting the predicate such an object
represents f1=f2= ...=fn to the projection of known fields fi1=...=fik.
Added a check for field's table being const in Item_equal::val_int().
If the field's table is not const val_int() just skips that field when
evaluating Item_equal.
The problem was in that the MIN/MAX optimization in opt_sum_query was
replacing MIN/MAX functions with their constant argument without
taking into account that a query has no result rows.
Added a test case for bug #9210.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #9210.
The function calc_group_buffer did not cover the case
when the GROUP BY expression was decimal.
Slightly optimized the other code.
Logging to logging@openlogging.org accepted
func_group.result, func_group.test:
Added a test case for bug #8893.
opt_sum.cc:
A misplaced initialization for the returned parameter
prefix_len in the function find_key_for_maxmin caused
usage of a wrong key prefix by the min/max optimization
in cases when the matching index was not the first index
that contained the min/max field.
Lots of small fixes to multi-precision-math path
Give Note for '123.4e'
Added helper functions type 'val_string_from_real()
Don't give warnings for end space for string2decimal()
Changed storage of values for SP so that we can detect length of argument without strlen()
Changed interface for str2dec() so that we must supple the pointer to the last character in the buffer
