Before this patch mergeable derived tables / view used in a multi-table
update / delete were merged before the preparation stage.
When the merge of a derived table / view is performed the on expression
attached to it is fixed and ANDed with the where condition of the select S
containing this derived table / view. It happens after the specification of
the derived table / view has been merged into S. If the ON expression refers
to a non existing field an error is reported and some other mergeable derived
tables / views remain unmerged. It's not a problem if the multi-table
update / delete statement is standalone. Yet if it is used in a stored
procedure the select with incompletely merged derived tables / views may
cause a problem for the second call of the procedure. This does not happen
for select queries using derived tables / views, because in this case their
specifications are merged after the preparation stage at which all ON
expressions are fixed.
This patch makes sure that merging of the derived tables / views used in a
multi-table update / delete statement is performed after the preparation
stage.

Analysis
========
Point in time recovery using mysqlbinlog containing queries
operating on temporary tables results in an error.
While writing the query log event in the binary log, the
thread id used for execution of DROP TABLE and DELETE commands
were incorrect. The thread variable 'thread_specific_used'
is used to determine whether a specific thread id is to used
while executing the statements i.e using 'SET
@@session.pseudo_thread_id'. This variable was not set
correctly for DROP TABLE query and was never set for DELETE
query. The thread id is important for temporary tables
since the tables are session specific. DROP TABLE and DELETE
queries executed using a wrong thread id resulted in errors
while applying the queries generated by mysqlbinlog utility.
Fix
===
Set the 'thread_specific_used' THD variable for DROP TABLE and
DELETE queries.

st_select_lex::handle_derived() and mysql_handle_list_of_derived() had
exactly the same implementations.
- Adding a new method LEX::handle_list_of_derived() instead
- Removing public function mysql_handle_list_of_derived()
- Reusing LEX::handle_list_of_derived() in st_select_lex::handle_derived()
Fixed by extending unique_table() with a flag to not allow usage of
the replaced table.
I also cleaned up find_dup_table() to not use goto next.
I also added more comments to the code in find_dup_table()
In this issue we hit the assert because we are adding addition fields to the field JOIN::all_fields list. This
is done because HEAP tables can't index BIT fields so we need to use an additional hidden field for grouping because later it will be
converted to a LONG field. Original field will remain of the BIT type and will be returned. This happens when we convert DISTINCT to
GROUP BY.
The solution is to take into account the number of such hidden fields that would be added to the field
JOIN::all_fields list while calculating the size of the ref_pointer_array.
move TABLE::key_read into handler. Because in index merge and DS-MRR
there can be many handlers per table, and some of them use
key read while others don't. "keyread" is really per handler,
not per TABLE property.
- Changed error handlers interface so that they can change error level in
the handler
- Give warnings and errors when calculating virtual columns
- On insert/update error is fatal in strict mode.
- SELECT and DELETE will only give a warning if a virtual field generates an error
- Added VCOL_UPDATE_FOR_DELETE and VCOL_UPDATE_INDEX_FOR_REPLACE to be able to
easily detect in update_virtual_fields() if we should use an error
handler to mask errors or not.
multi-update was setting up read_set/vcol_set in
multi_update::initialize_tables() that is invoked after
the optimizer (JOIN::optimize_inner()). But some rows - if they're from
const tables - will be read already in the optimizer, and these rows
will not have all necessary column/vcol values.
* multi_update::initialize_tables() uses results from the optimizer
and cannot be moved to be called earlier.
* multi_update::prepare() is called before the optimizer, but
it cannot set up read_set/vcol_set, because the optimizer
might reset them (see SELECT_LEX::update_used_tables()).
As a fix I've added a new method, select_result::prepare_to_read_rows(),
it's called from inside the optimizer just before make_join_statistics().
This fixes a bug where handler::read_range_first (for example)
needed to compare vcol values that were not calculated yet.
As a bonus it fixes few cases where vcols were calculated twice
Variant #4 of the fix.
Make ORDER BY optimization functions take into account multiple
equalities. This is done in several places:
- remove_const() checks whether we can sort the first table in the
join, or we need to put rows into temp.table and then sort.
- test_if_order_by_key() checks whether there are indexes that
can be used to produce the required ordering
- make_unireg_sortorder() constructs sort criteria for filesort.
filesort and init_read_record() for the same table.
This will simplify code for WINDOW FUNCTIONS (MDEV-6115)
- Filesort_info renamed to SORT_INFO and moved to filesort.h
- filesort now returns SORT_INFO
- init_read_record() now takes a SORT_INFO parameter.
- unique declaration is moved to uniques.h
- subselect caching of buffers is now more explicit than before
- filesort_buffer is now reusable even if rec_length has changed.
- filsort_free_buffers() and free_io_cache() calls are removed
- Remove one malloc() when using get_addon_fields()
Other things:
- Added --debug-assert-on-not-freed-memory option to make it easier to
debug some not-freed-memory issues.
Assertion `inited==INDEX' failed in int handler::ha_index_first(uchar*)
The crash was because errors from init_read_record_idx() was not taken care of.
- Part 4: Removing calls to sql_alloc() and sql_calloc()
Other things:
- Added current_thd in some places to make it clear that it's called (easier to remove later)
- Move memory allocation from Item_func_case::fix_length_and_dec() to Item_func_case::fix_fields()
- Added mem_root to some new calls
- Fixed some wrong UNINIT_VAR() calls
- Fixed a bug in generate_partition_syntax() in case of errors
- Added mem_root to argument to new thread_info
- Simplified my_parse_error() call in sql_yacc.yy
- Changed ER(ER_...) to ER_THD(thd, ER_...) when thd was known or if there was many calls to current_thd in the same function.
- Changed ER(ER_..) to ER_THD_OR_DEFAULT(current_thd, ER...) in some places where current_thd is not necessary defined.
- Removing calls to current_thd when we have access to thd
Part of this is optimization (not calling current_thd when not needed),
but part is bug fixing for error condition when current_thd is not defined
(For example on startup and end of mysqld)
Notable renames done as otherwise a lot of functions would have to be changed:
- In JOIN structure renamed:
examined_rows -> join_examined_rows
record_count -> join_record_count
- In Field, renamed new_field() to make_new_field()
Other things:
- Added DBUG_ASSERT(thd == tmp_thd) in Item_singlerow_subselect() just to be safe.
- Removed old 'tab' prefix in JOIN_TAB::save_explain_data() and use members directly
- Added 'thd' as argument to a few functions to avoid calling current_thd.
Handle the case where the optimizer decides to use
handler->delete_all_rows(), but then this call returns
HA_ERR_UNSUPPORTED and execution switches to regular
row-by-row deletion.
When detecting a statement that can make use of ha_delete_all_rows(),
we refrained from running the statement when being presented
with the analyze or explain prefix.
