(the crash happened, because thd->lex->query_tables was NULL)
Analysis:
The fix for lp:944706 introduces early subquery optimization.
While a subquery is being optimized some of its predicates may be
removed. In the test case, the EXISTS subquery is constant, and is
evaluated to TRUE. As a result the whole OR is TRUE, and thus the
correlated condition "b = alias1.b" is optimized away. The subquery
becomes non-correlated.
The subquery cache is designed to work only for correlated subqueries.
If constant subquery optimization is disallowed, then the constant
subquery is not evaluated, the subquery remains correlated, and its
execution is cached. As a result execution is fast.
However, when the constant subquery was optimized away, it was neither
cached by the subquery cache, nor it was cached by the internal subquery
caching. The latter was due to the fact that the subquery still appeared
as correlated to the subselect_XYZ_engine::exec methods, and they
re-executed the subquery on each call to Item_subselect::exec.
Solution:
The solution is to update the correlated status of the subquery after it has
been optimized. This status consists of:
- st_select_lex::is_correlated
- Item_subselect::is_correlated
- SELECT_LEX::uncacheable
- SELECT_LEX_UNIT::uncacheable
The status is updated by st_select_lex::update_correlated_cache(), and its
caller st_select_lex::optimize_unflattened_subqueries. The solution relies
on the fact that the optimizer already called
st_select_lex::update_used_tables() for each subquery. This allows to
efficiently update the correlated status of each subquery without walking
the whole subquery tree.
Notice that his patch is an improvement over MySQL 5.6 and older, where
subqueries are not pre-optimized, and the above analysis is not possible.
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.
fixed several defects in the greedy optimization:
1) The greedy optimizer calculated the 'compare-cost' (CPU-cost)
for iterating over the partial plan result at each level in
the query plan as 'record_count / (double) TIME_FOR_COMPARE'
This cost was only used locally for 'best' calculation at each
level, and *not* accumulated into the total cost for the query plan.
This fix added the 'CPU-cost' of processing 'current_record_count'
records at each level to 'current_read_time' *before* it is used as
'accumulated cost' argument to recursive
best_extension_by_limited_search() calls. This ensured that the
cost of a huge join-fanout early in the QEP was correctly
reflected in the cost of the final QEP.
To get identical cost for a 'best' optimized query and a
straight_join with the same join order, the same change was also
applied to optimize_straight_join() and get_partial_join_cost()
2) Furthermore to get equal cost for 'best' optimized query and a
straight_join the new code substrcated the same '0.001' in
optimize_straight_join() as it had been already done in
best_extension_by_limited_search()
3) When best_extension_by_limited_search() aggregated the 'best' plan a
plan was 'best' by the check :
'if ((search_depth == 1) || (current_read_time < join->best_read))'
The term '(search_depth == 1' incorrectly caused a new best plan to be
collected whenever the specified 'search_depth' was reached - even if
this partial query plan was more expensive than what we had already
found.
The patch differs from the original MySQL patch as follows:
- All test case differences have been reviewed one by one, and
care has been taken to restore the original plan so that each
test case executes the code path it was designed for.
- A bug was found and fixed in MariaDB 5.3 in
Item_allany_subselect::cleanup().
- ORDER BY is not removed because we are unsure of all effects,
and it would prevent enabling ORDER BY ... LIMIT subqueries.
- ref_pointer_array.m_size is not adjusted because we don't do
array bounds checking, and because it looks risky.
Original comment by Jorgen Loland:
-------------------------------------------------------------
WL#5953 - Optimize away useless subquery clauses
For IN/ALL/ANY/SOME/EXISTS subqueries, the following clauses are
meaningless:
* ORDER BY (since we don't support LIMIT in these subqueries)
* DISTINCT
* GROUP BY if there is no HAVING clause and no aggregate
functions
This WL detects and optimizes away these useless parts of the
query during JOIN::prepare()
If the optimizer switch 'semijoin_with_cache' is set to 'off' then
join cache cannot be used to join inner tables of a semijoin.
Also fixed a bug in the function check_join_cache_usage() that led
to wrong output of the EXPLAIN commands for some test cases.

For ANY subqueries NULLs should be ignored (if there is other values) when finding max min.
For ALL subqueries NULLs should be saved if they found.

- Set the default
- Adjust the testcases so that 'new' tests are run with optimizations turned on.
- Pull out relevant tests from "irrelevant" tests and run them with optimizations on.
- Run range.test and innodb.test with both mrr=on and mrr=off

to
semijoin=off,firstmatch=off,loosescan=off
Adjust the testcases:
- Modify subselect*.test and join_cache.test so that all tests
use the same execution paths as before (i.e. optimizations that
are being tested are enabled)
- Let all other test files run with the new default settings (i.e.
with new optimizations disabled)
- Copy subquery testcases from these files into t/subselect_extra.test
which will run them with new optimizations enabled.

Analysis:
The wrong result is a consquence of sorting the subquery
result and then selecting only the first row due to the
artificial LIMIT 1 introduced by the fix_fields phase.
Normally, if there is an ORDER BY in a subquery, the ORDER
is removed (Item_in_subselect::select_in_like_transformer),
however if a GROUP BY is transformed into ORDER, this happens
later, after the removal of the ORDER clause of subqueries, so
we end up with a subquery with an ORDER clause, and an artificially
added LIMIT 1.
The reason why the same works in the main 5.3 without MWL#89, is
that the 5.3 performs all subquery transformations, including
IN->EXISTS before JOIN::optimize(). The beginning of JOIN::optimize
does:
if (having || (select_options & OPTION_FOUND_ROWS))
select_limit= HA_POS_ERROR;
which sets the limit back to infinity, thus 5.3 sorts the whole
subquery result, and IN performs the lookup into all subquery result
rows.
Solution:
Sorting of subqueries without LIMIT is meaningless. Since LIMIT in
subqueries is not supported, the patch removes sorting by setting
join->skip_sort_order= true
for each subquery JOIN object. This improves a number of execution
plans to not perform unnecessary sorting at all.
This is a backport of
