optimize Item_func_conv_charset to avoid conversion if no string result is needed
Analysis:
When a subquery that needs a temp table is executed during
the prepare or optimize phase of the outer query, at the end
of the subquery execution all the JOIN_TABs of the subquery
are replaced by a new JOIN_TAB that selects from the temp table.
However that temp table has no corresponding TABLE_LIST.
Once EXPLAIN execution reaches its last phase, it tries to print
the names of the subquery tables through its TABLE_LISTs, but in
the case of this bug there is no such TABLE_LIST (it is NULL),
hence a crash.
Solution:
The fix is to block subquery evaluation inside
Item_func_like::fix_fields and Item_func_like::select_optimize()
using the Item::is_expensive() test.
Analysis:
The problem in the original MySQL bug is that the range optimizer
performs its analysis in a separate MEM_ROOT object that is freed
after the range optimzier is done. During range analysis get_mm_tree
calls Item_func_like::select_optimize, which in turn evaluates its
right argument. In the test case the right argument is a subquery.
In MySQL, subqueries are optimized lazyly, thus the call to val_str
triggers optimization for the subquery. All objects needed by the
subquery plan end up in the temporary MEM_ROOT used by the range
optimizer. When execution ends, the JOIN::cleanup process tries to
cleanup objects of the subquery plan, but all these objects are gone
with the temporary MEM_ROOT. The solution for MySQL is to switch the
mem_root.
In MariaDB with the patch for bug lp:944706, all constant subqueries
that may be used by the optimization process are preoptimized. Therefore
Item_func_like::select_optimize only triggers subquery execution, and
the above problem is not present.
The patch however adds a test whether the evaluated right argument of
the LIKE predicate is expensive. This is consistent with our approach
not to evaluate expensive expressions during optimization.
The patch enables back constant subquery execution during
query optimization after it was disabled during the development
of MWL#89 (cost-based choice of IN-TO-EXISTS vs MATERIALIZATION).
The main idea is that constant subqueries are allowed to be executed
during optimization if their execution is not expensive.
The approach is as follows:
- Constant subqueries are recursively optimized in the beginning of
JOIN::optimize of the outer query. This is done by the new method
JOIN::optimize_constant_subqueries(). This is done so that the cost
of executing these queries can be estimated.
- Optimization of the outer query proceeds normally. During this phase
the optimizer may request execution of non-expensive constant subqueries.
Each place where the optimizer may potentially execute an expensive
expression is guarded with the predicate Item::is_expensive().
- The implementation of Item_subselect::is_expensive has been extended
to use the number of examined rows (estimated by the optimizer) as a
way to determine whether the subquery is expensive or not.
- The new system variable "expensive_subquery_limit" controls how many
examined rows are considered to be not expensive. The default is 100.
In addition, multiple changes were needed to make this solution work
in the light of the changes made by MWL#89. These changes were needed
to fix various crashes and wrong results, and legacy bugs discovered
during development.
Issue/Cause:
Issue is of memory corruption.During optimization phase, pattern to be matched in where
clause, is prepared. This is done in Item_func_concat::val_str() function which forms the
resultant string (tmp_value) and return its pointer. In caller, Item_func_like::fix_fields,
pattern is made to point to this string (tmp_value). In further processing, tmp_value is
getting modified which causes pattern to have changed/wrong values.
Fix:
Allocate its own memroy location in caller, copy value of resultant string (tmp_value)
into that and make pattern to point to that. This makes sure no further changes to
tmp_value will affect pattern.
- Fix equality propagation to work with SJM nests and OR clauses (full descirption of problem and
solution in the comment in the patch)
(The second commit with post-review fixes)
make sure that stored routines are evaluated (that is, de facto - cached) in convert_const_to_int().
revert the fix for lp:806943 because it cannot be repeated anymore.
add few tests for convert_const_to_int()
Fixed Item* Item_equal::get_first(JOIN_TAB *context, Item *field_item) to work correctly in the case where:
- context!= NO_PARTICULAR_TAB, it points to a table within SJ-Materialization nest
- field_item points to an item_equal that has a constant Item_field but does not have any fields
from tables that are within semi-join nests.
Bug#11758543 50756: BIGINT '100' MATCHES 1.001E2
Expressions of the form
BIGINT_COL <compare> <non-integer constant>
should be done either as decimal, or float.
Currently however, such comparisons are done as int,
which means that the constant may be truncated,
and yield false positives/negatives for all queries
where compare is '>' '<' '>=' '<=' '=' '!='.
BIGINT_COL IN <list of contstants>
and
BIGINT_COL BETWEEN <constant> AND <constant>
are also affected.

sql/item_cmpfunc.cc:
In convert_constant_item() we verify that the constant item
can be stored in the given field.
For BIGINT columns (MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG) we must verify that the
stored constant value is actually comparable as int,
i.e. that the value was not truncated.
For between: compare as int only if both arguments convert correctly to int.
- equality substitution code was geared towards processing WHERE/ON clauses.
that is, it assumed that it was doing substitions on the code that
= wasn't attached to any particular join_tab yet
= was going to be fed to make_join_select() which would take the condition
apart and attach various parts of it to tables inside/outside semi-joins.
- However, somebody added equality substition for ref access. That is, if
we have a ref access on TBL.key=expr, they would do equality substition in
'expr'. This possibility wasn't accounted for.
- Fixed equality substition code by adding a mode that does equality
substition under assumption that the processed expression will be
attached to a certain particular table TBL.

- Provide fix_after_pullout() function for Item_in_optimizer and other Item_XXX classes (basically, all of them
that have eval_not_null_tables, which means they have special rules for calculating not_null_tables_cache value)
ALL subquery should return TRUE if subquery rowa set is empty independently
of left part. The problem was that Item_func_(eq,ne,gt,ge,lt,le) do not
call execution of second argument if first is NULL no in this case subquery
will not be executed and when Item_func_not_all calls any_value() of the
subquery or aggregation function which report that there was rows. So for
NULL < ALL (SELECT...) result was FALSE instead of TRUE.
Fix is just swapping of arguments of Item_func_(eq,ne,gt,ge,lt,le) (with
changing the operation if it is needed) so that result will be the same
(for examole a < b is equal to b > a). This fix exploit the fact that
first argument will be executed in any case.
- The problem was that the code that made the check whether the subquery is an AND-part of the WHERE
clause didn't work correctly for nested subqueries. In particular, grand-child subquery in HAVING was
treated as if it was in the WHERE, which eventually caused an assert when replace_where_subcondition
looked for the subquery predicate in the WHERE and couldn't find it there.
- The fix: Removed implementation of "thd_marker approach". thd->thd_marker was used to determine the
location of subquery predicate: setup_conds() would set accordingly it when making the
{where|on_expr}->fix_fields(...)
call so that AND-parts of the WHERE/ON clauses can determine they are the AND-parts.
Item_cond_or::fix_fields(), Item_func::fix_fields(), Item_subselect::fix_fields (this one was missed),
and all other items-that-contain-items had to reset thd->thd_marker before calling fix_fields() for
their children items, so that the children can see they are not AND-parts of WHERE/ON.
- The "thd_marker approach" required that a lot of code in different locations maintains correct value of
thd->thd_marker, so it was replaced with:
- The new approach with mark_as_condition_AND_part does not keep context in thd->thd_marker. Instead,
setup_conds() now calls
{where|on_expr}->mark_as_condition_AND_part()
and implementations of that function make sure that:
- parts of AND-expressions get the mark_as_condition_AND_part() call
- Item_in_subselect objects record that they are AND-parts of WHERE/ON
Analysis:
During the first execution of the query through the stored
procedure, the optimization phase calls
substitute_for_best_equal_field(), which calls
Item_in_optimizer::transform(). The latter replaces
Item_in_subselect::left_expr with args[0] via assignment.
In this test case args[0] is an Item_outer_ref which is
created/deallocated for each re-execution. As a result,
during the second execution Item_in_subselect::left_expr
pointed to freed memory, which resulted in a crash.
Solution:
The solution is to use change_item_tree(), so that the
origianal left expression is restored after each execution.
The bug is a duplicate of MySQL's Bug#11764086,
however MySQL's fix is incomplete for MariaDB, so
this fix is slightly different.
In addition, this patch renames
Item_func_not_all::top_level() to is_top_level_item()
to make it in line with the analogous methods of
Item_in_optimizer, and Item_subselect.
Analysis:
It is possible to determine whether a predicate is
NULL-rejecting only if it is a top-level one. However,
this was not taken into account for Item_in_optimizer.
As a result, a NOT IN predicate was erroneously
considered as NULL-rejecting, and the NULL-complemented
rows generated by the outer join were rejected before
being checked by the NOT IN predicate.
Solution:
Change Item_in_optimizer to be considered as
NULL-rejecting only if it a top-level predicate.
ALL subquery should return TRUE if subquery rowa set is empty independently
of left part. The problem was that Item_func_(eq,ne,gt,ge,lt,le) do not

NULL < ALL (SELECT...) result was FALSE instead of TRUE.
Fix is just swapping of arguments of Item_func_(eq,ne,gt,ge,lt,le) (with
changing the operation if it is needed) so that result will be the same
(for examole a < b is equal to b > a). This fix exploit the fact that
first argument will be executed in any case.

The problem was that optimizer removes some outer references (it they are
constant for example) and the list of outer items built during prepare phase is
not actual during execution phase when we need it as the cache parameters.
First solution was use pointer on pointer on outer reference Item and
initialize temporary table on demand. This solved most problem except case
when optimiser also reduce Item which contains outer references ('OR' in
this bug test suite).
The solution is to build the list of outer reference items on execution
phase (after optimization) on demand (just before temporary table creation)
by walking Item tree and finding outer references among Item_ident
(Item_field/Item_ref) and Item_sum items.
Removed depends_on list (because it is not neede any mnore for the cache, in the place where it was used it replaced with upper_refs).

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.
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().
