Bug#11766642: crash in Item_field::register_field_in_read_map 
              with view

(Former 59793)

Prior to the refactoring in this patch, Item_cond_xor behaved 
partially as an Item_cond and partially as an Item_func. The
reasoning behind this was that XOR is currently not optimized
(thus should be Item_func instead of Item_cond), but it was 
planned optimize it in the future (thus, made Item_cond anyway 
to ease optimization later). 

Even though Item_cond inherits from Item_func, there are 
differences between these two. One difference is that the 
arguments are stored differently. Item_cond stores them in a 
list while Item_func store them in an args[]. 

BUG no 45221 was caused by Item_cond_xor storing arguments in 
the list while users of the objects would look for them in 
args[]. The fix back then was to store the arguments in both 
locations.

In this bug, Item_cond_xor initially gets two Item_field 
arguments. These are stored in the list inherited from 
Item_cond and in args[] inherited from Item_func. During
resolution, find_field_in_view() replaces the Item_fields 
stored in the list with Item_direct_view_refs, but args[] 
still points to the unresolved Item_fields. This shows that 
the fix for 45221 was incorrect.

The refactoring performed in this patch removes the confusion
by making the XOR item an Item_func period. A neg_transformer() 
is also implemented for Item_func_xor to improve performance 
when negating XOR expressions. An XOR is negated by negating 
one of the operands.

4128ec4852 Fix bug lp:806943
Analysis:
This bug is yet another incarnation of the generic problem
where optimization of the outer query triggers evaluation
of a subquery, and this evaluation performs a destructive
change to the subquery plan. Specifically a temp table is
created for the DISTINCT operation that replaces the
original subquery table. Later, select_describe() attempts
to print the table name, however, there is no corresponding
TABLE_LIST object to the internal temp table, so we get a
crash. Execution works fine because it is not interested in
the corresponding TABLE_LIST object (or its name).

Solution:
Similar to other such bugs, block the evaluation of expensive
Items in convert_const_to_int().

1018c90107 Fixed LP bug #784281.
When a view is merged into a select all the depended_from fields
pointing to the select of the view should have been corrected to
point to the select where the view is used. It was not done yet.
This could lead to wrong results returned by queries such as
one from the test case for bug 33389.
Correction of outer references required walking through all items
of the proccesed qurery. To avoid this the following solution was
implemented.
Each select now contains a pointer to the select it is merged into
(if there is any). Such pointers allow to get the corrected value
of depended_from on the fly. The function Item_ident::get_depended_from
was introduced for this purpose.

4a9c027ad8 Fix LP BUG#778413
Analysis:
The subquery is evaluated first during ref-optimization of the outer
query because the subquery is considered constant from the perspective
of the outer query. Thus an attempt is made to evaluate the MAX subquery
and use the new constant to drive an index nested loops join.
During this evaluation the inner-most subquery replaces the JOIN_TAB
with a new one that fetches the data from a temp table.
The function select_describe crashes at the lines:
        TABLE_LIST *real_table= table->pos_in_table_list; 
	item_list.push_back(new Item_string(real_table->alias,
					    strlen(real_table->alias),
					    cs));
because 'table' is a temp table, and it has no corresponding table
reference. This 'real_table' is NULL, and real_table->alias results
in a crash.

Solution:
In the spirit of MWL#89 prevent the evaluation of expensive predicates
during optimization. This patch prevents the evaluation of expensive
predicates during ref optimization.


sql/item_subselect.h:
  Remove unused class member. Not needed for the fix, but noticed now and removed.

b757f73492 Fix LP BUG#777597
Analysis:
During optimization of the subquery, in the call chain:

update_ref_and_keys -> add_key_fields ->
merge_key_fields -> Item_direct_ref::is_null -> Item_cache::is_null

The call to Item_cache::is_null() returns TRUE, which is wrong.
This results in Item_null replacing the field 'f3' in the KEY_FIELD,
then this Item_null is used for index access, producing a wrong result.

The reason why Item_cache::is_null returns wrong result is that
this Item_cache object is a cache of the left operand of IN, and was
updated in Item_in_optimizer::val_int. In MWL#89 the latter method is
called during the execution phase, which is after we optimize the subquery.
Therefore during the optization phase the left operand cache of IN was
not updated.

Solution:
Update the left operand cache during optimization if it is a constant.

This bug fix also discoveres and fixes a wrong IF statement in
convert_constant_item().

8d9dd21d85 Fixed LP bugs #717577, #724942.
Both these two bugs happened due to the following problem.
When a view column is referenced in the query an Item_direct_view_ref
object is created that is refers to the Item_field for the column.
All references to the same view column refer to the same Item_field.
Different references can belong to different AND/OR levels and,
as a result, can be included in different Item_equal object.
These Item_equal objects may include different constant objects.
If these constant objects are substituted for the Item_field created
for a view column we have a conflict situation when the second
substitution annuls the first substitution. This leads to
wrong result sets returned by the query. Bug #724942 demonstrates
such an erroneous behaviour.
Test case of the bug #717577 produces wrong result sets because best
equal fields of the multiple equalities built for different OR levels
of the WHERE condition differs. The subsitution for the best equal field
in the second OR branch overwrites the the substitution made for the
first branch.

To avoid such conflicts we have to substitute for the references
to the view columns rather than for the underlying field items.
To make such substitutions possible we have to include into
multiple equalities references to view columns rather than 
field items created for such columns.

This patch modifies the Item_equal class to include references
to view columns into multiple equality objects. It also performs
a clean up of the class methods and adds more comments. The methods

33c2a5e7e3 Bug#11766212 59270: NOT IN (YEAR( ... ), ... ) PRODUCES MANY VALGRIND WARNINGS
Valgrind warning happens due to early null values check
in Item_func_in::fix_length_and_dec(before item evaluation).
As result null value items with uninitialized values are
placed into array and it leads to valgrind warnings during
value array sorting.
The fix is to check null value after item evaluation, item
is evaluated in in_array::set() method.

ec23949158 Fix LP BUG#715738
Analysis:
A query with implicit grouping is one with aggregate functions and
no GROUP BY clause. MariaDB inherits from MySQL an SQL extenstion
that allows mixing aggregate functions with non-aggregate fields.
If a query with such mixed select clause produces an empty result
set, the meaning of aggregate functions is well defined - either
NULL (MIN, MAX, etc.), or 0 (count(*)). However the non-aggregated
fields must also have some value, and the only reasonable value in
the case of empty result is NULL.

The cause of the many wrong results was that if a field is declared
as non-nullable (e.g. because it is a PK or NOT NULL), the semantic
analysis and the optimization phases treat this field as non-nullable,
and generate all related query plan elements based on this assumption.

Later during execution, these incorrectly configured/generated query
plan elements result in a wrong result because the selected fields
are not null due to the not-null assumption during optimization.

Solution:
Detect before the context analysys phase that a query uses implicit
grouping with mixed aggregates/non-aggregates, and set all fields
as nullable. The parser already walks the SELECT clause, and
already sets Item::with_sum_func for Items that reference aggreagate
functions. The patch adds a symmetric Item::with_field so that all
Items that reference an Item_field are marked during their
construction at parse time in the same way as with aggregate function
use.

many changes:
* NOT_FIXED_DEC now create hires fields, not old ones.
  As a result, temp tables preserve microseconds (on DISTINCT, GROUP BY)
* I_S tables force decimals=0 on temporal types (backward compatibility)
* Item_func_coalesce calculates decimals for temporal types
* no precision for TIME/DATETIME in CAST means 0, not NOT_FIXED_DEC
* addtime/timediff calculate decimals from arguments (not NOT_FIXED_DEC)

sql/field.h:
  NOT_FIXED_DEC now create hires fields, not old ones
sql/item.h:
  force decimals=0 for I_S tables
sql/item_cmpfunc.cc:
