Search conditions were evaluated using val_int(), which was wrong.
Fixing the code to use val_bool() instead.
Details:
- Adding a new item_base_t::IS_COND flag which marks Items used
as <search condition> in WHERE, HAVING, JOIN ON, CASE WHEN clauses.
The flag is at the parse time.
These expressions must be evaluated using val_bool() rather than val_int().
Note, the optimizer creates more Items which are used as search conditions.
Most of these items are not marked with IS_COND yet. This is OK for now,
but eventually these Items can also be fixed to have the flag.
- Adding a method Item::is_cond() which tests if the Item has the IS_COND flag.
- Implementing Item_cache_bool. It evaluates the cached expression using
val_bool() rather than val_int().
Overriding Type_handler_bool::Item_get_cache() to create Item_cache_bool.
- Implementing Item::save_bool_in_field(). It uses val_bool() rather than
val_int() to evaluate the expression.
- Implementing Type_handler_bool::Item_save_in_field()
using Item::save_bool_in_field().
- Fixing all Item_bool_func descendants to implement a virtual val_bool()
rather than a virtual val_int().
- To find places where val_int() should be fixed to val_bool(), a few
DBUG_ASSERT(!is_cond()) where added into val_int() implementations
of selected (most frequent) classes:
Item_field
Item_str_func
Item_datefunc
Item_timefunc
Item_datetimefunc
Item_cache_bool
Item_bool_func
Item_func_hybrid_field_type
Item_basic_constant descendants
- Fixing all places where DBUG_ASSERT() happened during an "mtr" run
to use val_bool() instead of val_int().
Review followup: RANGE_OPT_PARAM statement_should_be_aborted()
checks for thd->is_fatal_error and thd->is_error(). The first is
redundant when the second is present.
Enable unusable key notes for non-equality predicates:
<, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE
Note, in some scenarios it displays duplicate notes, e.g.
for queries with ORDER BY:
SELECT * FROM t1
WHERE indexed_string_column >= 10
ORDER BY indexed_string_column
LIMIT 5;
This should be tolarable. Getting rid of the diplicate note
completely would need a much more complex patch, which is
not desiable in 10.6.
Details:
- Changing RANGE_OPT_PARAM::note_unusable_keys from bool
to a new data type Item_func::Bitmap, so the caller can
choose with a better granuality which predicates
should raise unusable key notes inside the range optimizer:
a. all predicates (=, <=>, <, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE)
b. all predicates except equality (=, <=>)
c. none of the predicates
"b." is needed because in some scenarios equality predicates (=, <=>)
send unusable key notes at an earlier stage, before the range optimizer,
during update_ref_and_keys(). Calling the range optimizer with
"all predicates" would produce duplicate notes for = and <=> in such cases.
- Fixing get_quick_record_count() to call the range optimizer
with "all predicates except equality" instead of "none of the predicates".
Before this change the range optimizer suppressed all notes for
non-equality predicates: <, <=, =>, >, BETWEEN, IN, LIKE.
This actually fixes the reported problem.
- Fixing JOIN::make_range_rowid_filters() to call the range optimizer
with "all predicates except equality" instead of "all predicates".
Before this change the range optimizer produced duplicate notes
for = and <=> during a rowid_filter optimization.
- Cleanup:
Adding the op_collation argument to Field::raise_note_cannot_use_key_part()
and displaying the operation collation rather than the argument collation
in the unusable key note. This is important for operations with more than
two arguments: BETWEEN and IN, e.g.:
SELECT * FROM t1
WHERE column_utf8mb3_general_ci
BETWEEN 'a' AND 'b' COLLATE utf8mb3_unicode_ci;
SELECT * FROM t1
WHERE column_utf8mb3_general_ci
IN ('a', 'b' COLLATE utf8mb3_unicode_ci);
The note for 'a' now prints utf8mb3_unicode_ci as the collation.
which is the collation of the entire operation:
Cannot use key key1 part[0] for lookup:
"`column_utf8mb3_general_ci`" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci` >=
"'a'" of collation `utf8mb3_unicode_ci`
Before this change it printed the collation of 'a',
so the note was confusing:
Cannot use key key1 part[0] for lookup:
"`column_utf8mb3_general_ci`" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci` >=
"'a'" of collation `utf8mb3_general_ci`"
When QUICK_GROUP_MIN_MAX_SELECT is initialized or being reset
it stores the prefix of the last group of the index chosen for
retrieving data (last_value). Later, when looping through records
at get_next() method, the server checks whether the retrieved
group is the last, and if so, it finishes processing.
At the same time, it looks like there is no need for that additional
check since method next_prefix() returns HA_ERR_KEY_NOT_FOUND
or HA_ERR_END_OF_FILE when there are no more satisfying records.
If we do not perform the check, we do not need to retrieve and
store last_value either.
This commit removes using of last_value from QUICK_GROUP_MIN_MAX_SELECT.

...errors, then failing ASSERT.
UPDATE queries treat warnings as errors. In this case, an invalid
condition "datetime_key_col >= '2012-01'" caused warning-as-error inside
SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select().
The code that called test_quick_select() ignored this error and continued
join optimization. Then it eventually reached a thd->is_error() check
and failed to setup SJ-Materialization which failed an assert.
Fixed this by making SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select() return error in
its return value, and making any code that calls it to check for error
condition and abort the query if the error is returned.
Places in the code that didn't check for errors from
SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select but now do:
- get_quick_record_count() call in make_join_statistics(),
- test_if_skip_sort_order(),
- "Range checked for each record" code.

in the rare case where they neeed more generated SEL_ARGS (as part of
the range optimizer)
Raise notes if indexes cannot be used:
- in case of data type or collation mismatch (diferent error messages).
- in case if a table field was replaced to something else
(e.g. Item_func_conv_charset) during a condition rewrite.
Added option to write warnings and notes to the slow query log for
slow queries.
New variables added/changed:
- note_verbosity, with is a set of the following options:
basic - All old notes
unusable_keys - Print warnings about keys that cannot be used
for select, delete or update.
explain - Print unusable_keys warnings for EXPLAIN querys.
The default is 'basic,explain'. This means that for old installations
the only notable new behavior is that one will get notes about
unusable keys when one does an EXPLAIN for a query. One can turn all
of all notes by either setting note_verbosity to "" or setting sql_notes=0.
- log_slow_verbosity has a new option 'warnings'. If this is set
then warnings and notes generated are printed in the slow query log
(up to log_slow_max_warnings times per statement).
- log_slow_max_warnings - Max number of warnings written to
slow query log.
Other things:
- One can now use =ALL for any 'set' variable to set all options at once.
For example using "note_verbosity=ALL" in a config file or
"SET @@note_verbosity=ALL' in SQL.
- mysqldump will in the future use @@note_verbosity=""' instead of
@sql_notes=0 to disable notes.
- Added "enum class Data_type_compatibility" and changing the return type
of all Field::can_optimize*() methods from "bool" to this new data type.

This patch is the result of running
run-clang-tidy -fix -header-filter=.* -checks='-*,modernize-use-equals-default' .
Code style changes have been done on top. The result of this change
leads to the following improvements:
1. Binary size reduction.
* For a -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release build, the binary size is reduced by
~400kb.
* A raw -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release reduces the binary size by ~1.4kb.
2. Compiler can better understand the intent of the code, thus it leads
to more optimization possibilities. Additionally it enabled detecting
unused variables that had an empty default constructor but not marked
so explicitly.
Particular change required following this patch in sql/opt_range.cc
result_keys, an unused template class Bitmap now correctly issues
unused variable warnings.
Setting Bitmap template class constructor to default allows the compiler
to identify that there are no side-effects when instantiating the class.
Previously the compiler could not issue the warning as it assumed Bitmap
class (being a template) would not be performing a NO-OP for its default
constructor. This prevented the "unused variable warning".
(addressed review input)
The issue was introduced by @@optimizer_max_sel_arg_weight code.
key_or() calls SEL_ARG::update_weight_locally(). That function
takes O(tree->elements) time.
Without that call, key_or(big_tree, one_element_tree) would take
O(log(big_tree)) when one_element_tree doesn't overlap with elements
of big_tree.
This means, update_weight_locally() can cause a big slowdown.
The fix:
1. key_or() actually doesn't need to call update_weight_locally().
It calls SEL_ARG::tree_delete() and SEL_ARG::insert(). These functions
update SEL_ARG::weight.
It also manipulates the SEL_ARG objects directly, but these
modifications do not change the weight of the tree.
I've just removed the update_weight_locally() call.
2. and_all_keys() also calls update_weight_locally(). It manipulates the
SEL_ARG graph directly.
Removed that call and added the code to update the SEL_ARG graph weight.
Tests main.range and main.range_not_embedded already contain the queries
that have test coverage for the affected code.
The problem was in and_all_keys(), the code of MDEV-9759 which calculates
the new tree weight:
First, it didn't take into account the case when
(next->next_key_part=tmp) == NULL
and dereferenced a NULL pointer when getting tmp->weight.
Second, "if (param->alloced_sel_args > SEL_ARG::MAX_SEL_ARGS) break"
could leave the loop with incorrect value of weight.
Fixed by introducing SEL_ARG::update_weight_locally() and calling it
at the end of the function. This allows to avoid caring about all the
above cases.
(Variant #5, full patch, for 10.5)
Do not produce SEL_ARG graphs that would yield huge numbers of ranges.
Introduce a concept of SEL_ARG graph's "weight". If we are about to
produce a graph whose "weight" exceeds the limit, remove the parts
of SEL_ARG graph that represent the biggest key parts. Do so until
the graph's is within the limit.
Includes
- debug code to verify SEL_ARG graph weight
- A user-visible @@optimizer_max_sel_arg_weight to control the optimization
- Logging the optimization into the optimizer trace.
For a key with keyparts (k1,k2,k3) , if we are building a range over the keyparts
we should make sure that if min_value/max_value for a keypart is not added to
key buffer then the keyparts following should also not be allowed.
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
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 introduces support for the system variable eq_range_index_dive_limit
that existed in MySQL starting from 5.6. The variable sets a limit for
index dives into equality ranges. Index dives are performed by optimizer
to estimate the number of rows in range scans. Index dives usually provide
good estimate but they are pretty expensive. To estimate the number of rows
in equality ranges statistical data on indexes can be employed. Its usage gives
not so good estimates but it's cheap. So if the number of equality dives
required by an index scan exceeds the set limit no dives for equality
ranges are performed by the optimizer for this index.
As the new system variable is introduced in a stable version the default
value for it is set to a special value meaning there is no limit for the number
of index dives performed by the optimizer.
The patch partially uses the MySQL code for WL 5957
'Statistics-based Range optimization for many ranges'.
Other things:
- Cleanup of allocated bitmaps done in open(), which
simplifies init_partition_bitmaps()
- Add needed defines in ha_spider.cc to enable new spider code
- Fixed some DBUG_PRINT() to be consistent with normal code
- Removed end space
- The changes in test cases partition_innodb, partition_range,
partition_pruning etc are becasue partitions can now more exactly

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.
Found and fixed 2 problems:
- Filesort addon fields didn't mark virtual columns properly
- multi-range-read calculated vcol bitmap but was not using it.
This caused wrong vcol field to be calculated on read, which caused the assert.
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.
The crash was caused by range optimizer using RANGE_OPT_PARAM::min_key
(and max_key) to store keys. Buffer size was a good upper bound for
range analysis and partition pruning, but not for EITS selectivity
calculations.
Fixed by making these buffers variable-size. The sizes are calculated
from [pseudo]indexes used for range analysis.
- 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.
sql_alloc() has additional costs compared to direct mem_root allocation:
- function call: it is defined in a separate translation unit and can't be
inlined
- it needs to call pthread_getspecific() to get THD::mem_root
It is called dozens of times implicitely at least by:
- List<>::push_back()
- List<>::push_front()
- new (for Sql_alloc derived classes)
- sql_memdup()
Replaced lots of implicit sql_alloc() calls with direct mem_root allocation,
passing through THD pointer whenever it is needed.
Number of sql_alloc() calls reduced 345 -> 41 per OLTP RO transaction.
pthread_getspecific() overhead dropped 0.76 -> 0.59
sql_alloc() overhed dropped 0.25 -> 0.06
