- Fix the LooseScan code to support storage engines that return
HA_ERR_END_OF_FILE if the index scan goes out of provided range
bounds
- Add a DBUG_EXECUTE_IF("force_group_by",...) to allow a test to
force a LooseScan
- Adjust rocksdb.group_min_max test not to use features not present
in MariaDB 10.2 (e.g. optimizer_trace. In MariaDB 10.4 it's present
but it doesn't meet the assumptions that the test makes about it
- Adjust the test result file:
= MariaDB doesn't support "Enhanced Loose Scan" that FB/MySQL has
= MariaDB has different cost calculations.
Introduced a print_key_value function to makes sure that the trace prints data in readable format
for readable characters and the rest of the characters are printed as hexadecimal.
Changed the function append_range_all_keyparts to use sel_arg_range_seq_init / sel_arg_range_seq_next to produce ranges.
Also adjusted to print format for the ranges, now the ranges are printed as:
(keypart1_min, keypart2_min,..) OP (keypart1_name,keypart2_name, ..) OP (keypart1_max,keypart2_max, ..)
Also added more tests for range and index merge access for optimizer trace
we had the statistics tables in the FROM list of the select.
The statistics for tables are not read in such cases, so we need
to check this case separately.
With MAX_INDEXIES=64(default), key_map=Bitmap<64> is just a wrapper around
ulonglong and thus "trivial" (can be bzero-ed, or memcpy-ed, and stays
valid still)
With MAX_INDEXES=128, key_map = Bitmap<128> is not a "trivial" type
anymore. The implementation uses MY_BITMAP, and MY_BITMAP contains pointers
which make Bitmap invalid, when it is memcpy-ed/bzero-ed.
The problem in 10.4 is that there are many new key_map members, inside TABLE
or KEY, and those are often memcopied and bzeroed
The fix makes Bitmap "trivial", by inlining most of MY_BITMAP functionality.
pointers/heap allocations are not used anymore.
Do not attempt to set param->table->with_impossible_ranges if the
range optimizer is using pseudo-indexes (which is true when we are
computing EITS selectivity estimates or doing partition pruning).
The MDEV-17262 commit 26432e49d3
was skipped. In Galera 4, the implementation would seem to require
changes to the streaming replication.
In the tests archive.rnd_pos main.profiling, disable_ps_protocol
for SHOW STATUS and SHOW PROFILE commands until MDEV-18974
has been fixed.
There were two newly enabled warnings:
1. cast for a function pointers. Affected sql_analyse.h, mi_write.c
and ma_write.cc, mf_iocache-t.cc, mysqlbinlog.cc, encryption.cc, etc
2. memcpy/memset of nontrivial structures. Fixed as:
* the warning disabled for InnoDB
* TABLE, TABLE_SHARE, and TABLE_LIST got a new method reset() which
does the bzero(), which is safe for these classes, but any other
bzero() will still cause a warning
* Table_scope_and_contents_source_st uses `TABLE_LIST *` (trivial)
instead of `SQL_I_List<TABLE_LIST>` (not trivial) so it's safe to
bzero now.
* added casts in debug_sync.cc and sql_select.cc (for JOIN)
* move assignment method for MDL_request instead of memcpy()
* PARTIAL_INDEX_INTERSECT_INFO::init() instead of bzero()
* remove constructor from READ_RECORD() to make it trivial
* replace some memcpy() with c++ copy assignments
When the chosen execution plan accesses a join table employing a range
rowid filter a quick select to scan this range has to be built. This
quick select is built by a call of SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select().
At this call the function should allow to evaluate only single index
range scans. In order to be able to do this a new parameter was added
to this function.
This task involves the implementation for the optimizer trace.
This feature produces a trace for any SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE/,
which contains information about decisions taken by the optimizer during
the optimization phase (choice of table access method, various costs,
transformations, etc). This feature would help to tell why some decisions were
taken by the optimizer and why some were rejected.
Trace is session-local, controlled by the @@optimizer_trace variable.
To enable optimizer trace we need to write:
set @@optimizer_trace variable= 'enabled=on';
To display the trace one can run:
SELECT trace FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.OPTIMIZER_TRACE;
This task also involves:
MDEV-18489: Limit the memory used by the optimizer trace
introduces a switch optimizer_trace_max_mem_size which limits
the memory used by the optimizer trace. This was implemented by
Sergei Petrunia.
This patch contains a full implementation of the optimization
that allows to use in-memory rowid / primary filters built for range
conditions over indexes. In many cases usage of such filters reduce
the number of disk seeks spent for fetching table rows.
In this implementation the choice of what possible filter to be applied
(if any) is made purely on cost-based considerations.
This implementation re-achitectured the partial implementation of
the feature pushed by Galina Shalygina in the commit
8d5a11122c.
Besides this patch contains a better implementation of the generic
handler function handler::multi_range_read_info_const() that
takes into account gaps between ranges when calculating the cost of
range index scans. It also contains some corrections of the
implementation of the handler function records_in_range() for MyISAM.
This patch supports the feature for InnoDB and MyISAM.
In the function QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::init_ror_merged_scan we create a seperate handler if the handler in
head->file cannot be reused. The flag free_file tells us if we have a seperate handler or not.
There are cases where you might create a handler and then there might be a failure(running ALTER)
and then we have to revert the handler back to the original one. The code does that
but it does not reset the flag 'free_file' in this case.
Also backported f2c418079d.
The problem here is EITS statistics does not calculate statistics for the partitions of the table.
So a temporary solution would be to not read EITS statistics for partitioned tables.
Also disabling reading of EITS for columns that participate in the partition list of a table.
