- Initialize variables that could be used uninitialized
- Added extra end space to DbugStringItemTypeValue to get rid of warnings
from c_ptr()
- Session_sysvars_tracker::update() accessed unitialized memory if called
with NULL value.
- get_schema_stat_record() accessed unitialized memory if HA_KEY_LONG_HASH
was used
- parse_vcol_defs() accessed random memory for tables without keys.
and WHERE filter afterwards
This patch complements the patch fixing the bug MDEV-6892. The latter
properly handled queries that used mergeable views returning constant
columns as inner tables of outer joins and whose where clause contained
predicates referring to these columns if the predicates of happened not
to be equality predicates. Otherwise the server still could return wrong
result sets for such queries. Besides the fix for MDEV-6892 prevented
some possible conversions of outer joins to inner joins for such queries.
This patch corrected the function check_simple_equality() to handle
properly conjunctive equalities of the where clause that refer to the
constant columns of mergeable views used as inner tables of an outer join.
The patch also changed the code of Item_direct_view_ref::not_null_tables().
This change allowed to take into account predicates containing references
to constant columns of mergeable views when converting outer joins into
inner joins.
The bug appears because not all conditions are found to be knowingly
true or false in WHERE after HAVING pushdown optimization.
Impossible WHERE can be found much earlier compared with how it is done now.
To fix it and_new_conditions_to_optimized_cond() is changed.
When pushing a condition from HAVING into WHERE the function
st_select_lex::pushdown_from_having_into_where() transforms column
references in the pushed condition then performs cleanup of
items of the condition and finally calls fix_fields() for the condition
items. The cleanup is performed by a call of the method walk() with
cleanup_processor as the first parameter. Unfortunately this sequence
of calls does not work if the condition contains cached items, because
fix_fields() cannot go through Item_cache items and this leaves
underlying items unfixed.
The solution of this problem used in this patch is just does not allow
to process Item_cache objects when performing cleanup of the pushed
condition. In order to let the traversal procedure walk() not to process
Item_cache objects the third parameter of the used call of walk()
is set to a fictitious pointer (void *) 1. And Item_cache::walk() is
changed to prevent any action when it gets such value as the third
parameter.
Temporary table is defined with the view field in HAVING.
Item_direct_view_ref for this field is dropped and that causes error.
To fix it Item_direct_view_ref::remove_item_direct_ref() is added.
This bug is caused by pushdown from HAVING into WHERE.
It appears because condition that is pushed wasn't fixed.
It is also discovered that condition pushdown from HAVING into
WHERE is done wrong. There is no need to build clones for some
conditions that can be pushed. They can be simply moved from HAVING
into WHERE without cloning.
build_pushable_cond_for_having_pushdown(),
remove_pushed_top_conjuncts_for_having() methods are changed.
It is found that there is no transformation made for fields of
pushed condition.
field_transformer_for_having_pushdown transformer is added.
New tests are added. Some comments are changed.
The problem happened because Item_ident_for_show did not implement val_native().
Solution:
- Removing class Item_ident_for_show
- Implementing a new method Protocol::send_list_fields() instead,
which accepts a List<Field> instead of List<Item> as input.
Now no any Item creation is done during mysqld_list_fields().
Adding helper methods, to reuse the code easier:
- Moved a part of Protocol::send_result_set_metadata(),
responsible for sending an individual field metadata,
into a new method Protocol_text::store_field_metadata().
Reusing it in both send_list_fields() and send_result_set_metadata().
- Adding Protocol_text::store_field_metadata()
- Adding Protocol_text::store_field_metadata_for_list_fields()
Note, this patch also automatically fixed another bug:
MDEV-18685 mysql_list_fields() returns DEFAULT 0 instead of DEFAULT NULL for view columns
The reason for this bug was that Item_ident_for_show::val_xxx() and get_date()
did not check field->is_null() before calling field->val_xxx()/get_date().
Now the default value is correctly sent by Protocol_text::store(Field*).
Optimized the code that removed multiple equalities pushed from HAVING
into WHERE. Now this removal is postponed until all multiple equalities
are eliminated in substitute_for_best_equal_field().
Condition can be pushed from the HAVING clause into the WHERE clause
if it depends only on the fields that are used in the GROUP BY list
or depends on the fields that are equal to grouping fields.
Aggregate functions can't be pushed down.
How the pushdown is performed on the example:
SELECT t1.a,MAX(t1.b)
FROM t1
GROUP BY t1.a
HAVING (t1.a>2) AND (MAX(c)>12);
=>
SELECT t1.a,MAX(t1.b)
FROM t1
WHERE (t1.a>2)
GROUP BY t1.a
HAVING (MAX(c)>12);
The implementation scheme:
1. Extract the most restrictive condition cond from the HAVING clause of
the select that depends only on the fields that are used in the GROUP BY
list of the select (directly or indirectly through equalities)
2. Save cond as a condition that can be pushed into the WHERE clause
of the select
3. Remove cond from the HAVING clause if it is possible
The optimization is implemented in the function
st_select_lex::pushdown_from_having_into_where().
New test file having_cond_pushdown.test is created.
Find indexes of one table which parts participate in one constraint.
These indexes are called constraint correlated.
New methods: TABLE::find_constraint_correlated_indexes() and
virtual method check_index_dependence() were added.
For each index it's own constraint correlated index map was created
where all indexes that are constraint correlated with the current are
marked.
The results of this task are used for MDEV-16188 (Use in-memory
PK filters built from range index scans).
The error message modified.
Then the TABLE_SHARE::error_table_name() implementation taken from 10.3,
to be used as a name of the table in this message.
