This feature adds the functionality of ignorability for indexes.
Indexes are not ignored be default.
To control index ignorability explicitly for a new index,
use IGNORE or NOT IGNORE as part of the index definition for
CREATE TABLE, CREATE INDEX, or ALTER TABLE.
Primary keys (explicit or implicit) cannot be made ignorable.
The table INFORMATION_SCHEMA.STATISTICS get a new column named IGNORED that
would store whether an index needs to be ignored or not.
The default keyread_time() was optimized for blocks and not suitable for
HEAP. The effect was the HEAP prefered table scans over ranges for btree
indexes.
Fixed also get_sweep_read_cost() for HEAP tables.
This patch implements engine independent unique hash index.
Usage:- Unique HASH index can be created automatically for blob/varchar/test column whose key
length > handler->max_key_length()
or it can be explicitly specified.
Automatic Creation:-
Create TABLE t1 (a blob unique);
Explicit Creation:-
Create TABLE t1 (a int , unique(a) using HASH);
Internal KEY_PART Representations:-
Long unique key_info will have 2 representations.
(lets understand this with an example create table t1(a blob, b blob , unique(a, b)); )
1. User Given Representation:- key_info->key_part array will be similar to what user has defined.
So in case of example it will have 2 key_parts (a, b)
2. Storage Engine Representation:- In this case there will be only one key_part and it will point to
HASH_FIELD. This key_part will be always after user defined key_parts.
So:- User Given Representation [a] [b] [hash_key_part]
key_info->key_part ----^
Storage Engine Representation [a] [b] [hash_key_part]
key_info->key_part ------------^
Table->s->key_info will have User Given Representation, While table->key_info will have Storage Engine
Representation.Representation can be changed into each other by calling re/setup_keyinfo_hash function.
Working:-
1. So when user specifies HASH_INDEX or key_length is > handler->max_key_length(), In mysql_prepare_create_table
One extra vfield is added (for each long unique key). And key_info->algorithm is set to HA_KEY_ALG_LONG_HASH.
2. In init_from_binary_frm_image values for hash_keypart is set (like fieldnr , field and flags)
3. In parse_vcol_defs, HASH_FIELD->vcol_info is created. Item_func_hash is used with list of Item_fields,
When Explicit length is given by user then Item_left is used to concatenate Item_field values.
4. In ha_write_row/ha_update_row check_duplicate_long_entry_key is called which will create the hash key from
table->record[0] and then call ha_index_read_map , if we found duplicated hash , we will compare the result
field by field.
