A bogus error message was issued when a condition was pushed into a
materialized derived table or view specified as union of selects with
aggregation when the corresponding columns of the selects had different
names. This happened because the expression pushed into having clauses of
the selects was adjusted for the names of the first select of the union.
The easiest solution was to rename the columns of the other selects to be
name compatible with the columns of the first select.

prepared statement
The method Item_func_in::build_clone() that builds a clone item for an
Item_func_in item first calls a generic method Item_func::build_item()
that builds the the clones for the arguments of the Item_func_in item
to be cloned, creates a copy of the Item_func_in object and attaches the
clones for the arguments to this copy. Then the method Item_func_in::build_clone()
makes the copy fully independent on the copied object in order to
guarantee a proper destruction of the clone. The fact is the copy of the
Item_func_in object is registered as any other item object and should be
destructed as any other item object.
If the method Item_func::build_item fails to build a clone of an argument
then it returns 0. In this case no copy of the Item_func_in object should
be created. Otherwise the finalizing actions for this copy would not be
performed and the copy would remain in a state that would prevent its
proper destruction.
The code of Item_func_in::build_clone() before this patch created the copy
of the Item_func_in object before cloning the argument items. If this
cloning failed the server crashed when trying to destruct the copy item.
The code of Item_row::build_clone() was changed similarly to the code of
Item_func::build_clone though this code could not cause any problems.
This allows one to run the test suite even if any of the following
options are changed:
- character-set-server
- collation-server
- join-cache-level
- log-basename
- max-allowed-packet
- optimizer-switch
- query-cache-size and query-cache-type
- skip-name-resolve
- table-definition-cache
- table-open-cache
- Some innodb options
etc
Changes:
- Don't print out the value of system variables as one can't depend on
them to being constants.
- Don't set global variables to 'default' as the default may not
be the same as the test was started with if there was an additional
option file. Instead save original value and reset it at end of test.
- Test that depends on the latin1 character set should include
default_charset.inc or set the character set to latin1
- Test that depends on the original optimizer switch, should include
default_optimizer_switch.inc
- Test that depends on the value of a specific system variable should
set it in the test (like optimizer_use_condition_selectivity)
- Split subselect3.test into subselect3.test and subselect3.inc to
make it easier to set and reset system variables.
- Added .opt files for test that required specfic options that could
be changed by external configuration files.
- Fixed result files in rockdsb & tokudb that had not been updated for
a while.
The bug occurs because Item_func_set_user var is allowed to be pushed
into materialized derived table/view.
To fix it excl_dep_on_table() as added to Item_func_set_user_var class
to prevent pushdown.
using Item_cond
This bug is similar to the bug MDEV-16765.
It appears because of the wrong pushdown into HAVING clause while this
pushdown shouldn't be made at all.
This happens because function that checks if Item_cond can be pushed
always returns that it can be pushed.
To fix it new method Item_cond::excl_dep_on_table() was added.
Item_direct_view_ref::derived_field_transformer_for_where
upon updating a view
The condition pushed into a materialized derived / view mast be adjusted
for the new context: its column references must be substituted for
references to the columns of the underlying tables if the condition
is pushed into WHERE. The substitution is performed by the 'transform'
method. If the materialized derived is used in a mergeable view then
the references to the columns of the view are represented by
Item_direct_view_ref objects. The transform method first processes
the item wrapped in such an object and only after this it transforms
the object itself.
The transformation procedure of an Item_direct_view_ref object has
to know whether the item it wraps has been substituted. If so the
procedure does not have to do anything. In the code before this patch
it was not possible for the transformation procedure used by an
Item_direct_view_ref object to find out whether a substitution for
the wrapped item had happened.
upon INSERT .. SELECT
The function Item *Item_direct_view_ref::derived_field_transformer_for_where()
erroneously did not strip off ref wrappers from references to materialized
derived tables / views. As a result the expressions that contained some
references of the type Item_direct_view_ref to columns of a materialized
derived table / view V were pushed into V incorrectly. This could cause
crashes for some INSERT ... SELECT statements.
The bug appears because of the Item_func_in::build_clone() method.
The 'array' field for the Item_func_in item that can be pushed into
the materialized view/derived table was built in the wrong way.
It becomes lame after the pushdown of the condition into the first
SELECT that defines that view/derived table. The server crashes in
the pushdown into the next SELECT while trying to use already lame
'array' field.
To fix it Item_func_in::build_clone() was changed.
The bug appears because of the wrong pushdown into the WHERE clause of the
materialized derived table/view work. For the excl_dep_on_grouping_fields()
method that checks if the condition can be pushed into the WHERE clause
the case when Item_cond is used is missing. For Item_cond elements this
method always returns positive result (that condition can be pushed).
So this condition is pushed even if is shouldn't be pushed.
To fix it new Item_cond::excl_dep_on_grouping_fields() method is added.
using INSERT INTO
This patch allows condition pushdown into a materialized derived / view when
this table is used in INSERT SELECT, multi-table UPDATE and multi-table DELETE.
The problem happened in the derived condition pushdown code:
- When Item_func_regex::build_clone() was called, it created a copy of
the original Item_func_regex, and this copy got registered in free_list.
Class specific additional dynamic members (such as "re") made
a shallow copy, rather than a deep copy, in the cloned Item_func_regex.
As a result, the Regexp_processor_pcre::m_pcre of the cloned Item_func_regex
and of the original Item_func_regex pointed to the same compiled regular
expression.
- On cleanup_items(), both original and cloned copies of Item_func_regex
called re.cleanup(), which called pcre_free(m_pcre). So the same compiled
regular expression was freed two times, which was noticed by ASAN.
The same problem was repeatable for Item_func_regexp_instr.
A similar problem happened for Item_func_sp, for the sp_result_field member.
Both original and cloned copies of Item_func_sp pointed the same Field instance
and both deleted it on cleanup().
A possible solution would be to fix build_clone() to create deep
(instead of shallow) copies for the dynamic members of the affected classes
(Item_func_regex, Item_func_regexp_instr, Item_func sp).
However, this would be too complex.
As agreed with Galina and Igor, this patch disallows using using these
affected classes in derived condition pushdown by overriding get_clone()
to return NULL.
Assertion `used_tables_cache == 0' failed
This bug manifested itself when executing queries
over materialized derived tables /vies and with
conjunctive always true predicates containing
inexpensive single-row subqueries.
This bug disappeared after the patch mdev-15035
had been applied.
IN predicate defined with non-constant values is pushed down
The problem appears because of wrong changes made in MDEV-16090 in the
Item_func_in::build_clone() method.
For the clone of the IN predicate it copied 'cmp_fields' array values
that become dirty after Item::cleanup_excluding_const_fields_processor
has worked in pushdown. That causes crash.
There is no need to copy 'cmp_fields' field, the array values should be
NULLs in order to fix_fields() for the cloned IN predicate can set them
correctly. fix_fields() computes values for 'cmp_fields' array only
if they were not set earlier.
materialized derived table/view that uses aliases is done
The problem appears when a column alias inside the materialized derived
table/view t1 definition coincides with the column name used in the
GROUP BY clause of t1. If the condition that can be pushed into t1
uses that ambiguous column name this column is determined as a column that
is used in the GROUP BY clause instead of the alias used in the projection
list of t1. That causes wrong result.
To prevent it resolve_ref_in_select_and_group() was changed.
failure upon SELECT with impossible condition
The problem appears because of a wrong implementation of the
Item_func_in::build_clone() method. It didn't clone 'array' and 'cmp_fields'
fields for the cloned IN predicate and this could cause crashes.
The Item_func_in::fix_length_and_dec() method was refactored and a new method
named Item_func_in::create_array() was created. It allowed to create 'array'
for cloned IN predicates in a proper way.
work in the IN subqueries
The pushdown into the materialized derived table/view wasn't done because
optimize() for the derived was called before any conditions that can
be pushed down were extracted. So optimize() in
convert_join_subqueries_to_semijoins() method is called too early and is
unnecessary. The second optimize() call in mysql_handle_single_derived()
is enough.
The implementations of the convert_to_basic_const_item() virtual
function for the Item_cache classes should call cache_value() when
value_cached == NULL.
Item::derived_field_transformer_for_having
The crash occurred due to an inappropriate handling of multiple equalities
when pushing conditions into materialized views/derived tables. If equalities
extracted from a multiple equality can be pushed into a materialized
view/derived table they should be plainly conjuncted with other pushed
predicates rather than form a separate AND sub-formula.
It's better to prohibit pushdown of conditions that involve
regexp_substr() and regexp_replace() into materialized derived
tables / views until proper implementations of the get_copy()
virtual method are provided for those functions.
When an equality that can be pushed into a materialized derived
table / view is extracted from multiple equalities and their
operands are cloned then if they have some pointers to Item_equal
objects those pointers must be set to NULL in the clones. Anyway
they are not valid in the pushed predicates.
This patch fills in a serious flaw in the
code that supports condition pushdown into
materialized views / derived tables.
If a predicate happened to contain a reference
to a mergeable view / derived table and it does
not depended directly on the target materialized
view / derived table then the predicate was not
considered as a subject to pusdown to this view
/ derived table.
The fields st_select_lex::cond_pushed_into_where and
st_select_lex::cond_pushed_into_having should be re-initialized
for the unit specifying a derived table at every re-execution
of the query that uses this derived table, because the result
of condition pushdown may be different for different executions.
The fix for bug mdev-11488 introduced the virtual method
convert_to_basic_const_item for the class Item_cache.
The implementation of this method for the class Item_cache_str
was not quite correct: the server could crash if the cached item
was null.
A similar problem could appear for the implementation of
this method for the class Item_cache_decimal. Although I could not
reproduce the problem I decided to change the code appropriately.
When a condition containing NULLIF is pushed into a materialized
view/derived table the clone of the Item_func_nullif item must
be processed in a special way to guarantee that the first argument
points to the same item as the third argument.
The patch for bug mdev-10882 tried to fix it by providing an
implementation of the virtual method build_clone for the class
Item_cache. It's turned out that it is not easy provide a valid
implementation for Item_cache::build_clone(). At the same time
if the condition that can be pushed into a materialized view
contains a cached item this item can be substituted for a basic
constant of the same value. In such a way we can avoid building
proper clones for Item_cache objects when constructing pushdown
conditions.
There were no implementations for the virtual functions
exclusive_dependence_on_table_processor and
exclusive_dependence_on_table_processor. As a result
the procedure pushdown_cond_for_derived erroneously
detected some conditions with outer references as pushable
into materialized view / derived table.
The class Item_func_nop_all missed an implementation
of the virtual method get_copy.
As a result if the condition that can be pushed into
into a materialized view / derived table contained
an ANY subselect then the pushdown condition was built
incorrectly.
In a general case the conditions with outer fields cannot
be pushed into materialized views / derived tables.
However if the outer field in the condition refers to a
single row table then the condition may be pushable.
In this case a special care should be taken for outer
fields when pushing the condition into a materialized view /
derived table.
If a materialized derived table / view is specified by a unit
with SELECTs containing ORDER BY ... LIMIT then condition pushdown
cannot be done for these SELECTs.
If a materialized derived table / view is specified by a unit
containing global ORDER BY ... LIMIT then condition pushdown
cannot be done for this unit.
The condition pushed into WHERE/HAVING of a materialized
view/derived table may differ for different executions of
the same prepared statement. That's why the should be
ANDed with the existing WHERE/HAVING conditions only after all
permanent transformations of these conditions has been
performed.
This bug in the code of Item_ref::build_clone could
cause corruption of items in where conditions.
Also made sure that equality predicates extracted
from multiple equality items to be pushed into
materialized views were cloned.
for materialized views and derived tables: there were no
push-down if the view was defined as union of selects
without aggregation. Added test cases with such unions.
Adjusted result files after the merge of the code for mdev-9197.
