Tests with checking metadata or that cannot be run with
the view-protocol are excluded from --view-protocol.
For tests that do not allow the use of an additional connection,
the util connection is disabled with "--disable_service_connection".
Also cases with bugs for --view-protocol are disabled.
* preserve DESC index property in the parser
* store it in the frm (only for HA_KEY_ALG_BTREE)
* read it from the frm
* show it in SHOW CREATE
* skip DESC indexes in opt_range.cc and opt_sum.cc
* ORDER BY test
This includes a fix of MDEV-27432.
For a unique key if all the keyparts are NOT NULL or the predicates involving
the keyparts is NULL rejecting, then we can use EQ_REF access instead of ref
access with the unique key
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.
