The function mysql_derived_merge() erroneously did not mark newly formed
AND formulas in ON conditions with the flag abort_on_null. As a result
not_null_tables() calculated incorrectly for these conditions. This
could prevent conversion of embedded outer joins into inner joins.
Changed a test case from table_elim.test to preserve the former execution
plan.
DOING BAD DDL IN PREPARED STATEMENT
Analysis
========
A repeat execution of the prepared statement 'ALTER TABLE v1
CHECK PARTITION' where v1 is a view leads to server exit.
ALTER TABLE ... CHECK PARTITION is not applicable for views
and check for the same check is missing. This leads to
further execution and creation of derived table for the view
(Allocated under temp_table mem_root). Any reference to open
view or related pointers from second execution leads to
server exit as the same was freed at previous execution closure.
Fix:
======
Added check for view in mysql_admin_table() on PARTITION
operation. This will prevent mysql_admin_table() from
going ahead and creating temp table and related issues.
Changed message on admin table view operation error to
be more appropriate.
THD::>save_prep_leaf_list was set to true by multi-table update
statements with mergeable selects and never reset.
Make every statement reset it at start.
IS REJECTED.
Analysis
========
View creation with named columns over UNION is rejected.
Consider the following view definition:
CREATE VIEW v1 (fld1, fld2) AS SELECT 1 AS a, 2 AS b
UNION ALL SELECT 1 AS a, 1 AS a;
A 'duplicate column' error was reported due to the duplicate
alias name in the secondary SELECT. The VIEW column names
are either explicitly specified or determined from the
first SELECT (which can be auto generated if not specified).
Since a duplicate column name check was performed even
for the secondary SELECTs, an error was reported.
Fix
====
Check for duplicate column names only for the named
columns if specified or only for the first SELECT.
Do not use merge_for_insert for commands which use SELECT because optimizer can't work with such tables.
Fixes which makes multi-delete working with normally merged views.

It is triple bug with one test suite:
1. Incorrect outer table detection
2. Incorrect leaf table processing for multi-update (should be full like for usual updates and inserts)
3. ON condition fix_fields() fould be called for all tables of the query.
update_used_tables for the the where condition to update cached
indicators of constant subexpressions. It should be done before further
possible simplification of the where condition.
This change caused simplification of the executed where conditions
in many test cases.
Materialization forced in case if rand() used in view or derived table to avoud several calls of rand for gting value of a field.
Fixed set variable uncachable flag from - it shouldbe a side effect not a random value.
1. Transformation of row IN subquery made the same as single value.
2. replace_where_subcondition() made working on several layers of OR/AND because it called on expression before fix_fields().
MDEV-5034:Wrong result on LEFT JOIN with a SELECT SQ or a merge view, UNION in IN subquery
Make reset null_row same as it was set in evaluate_null_complemented_join_record().
The problem was that view firlds detect null_row by not-yet-reset table.
After single row substitutions there might appear new equalities.
They should be properly propagated to all AND/OR levels the WHERE
condition. It's done now with an additional call of remove_eq_conds().
mysql_derived_merge_for_insert() should not be called for views or derived tables which are not put (directly or via other views) in main SELECT_LEX "join list".
This bug in the legacy code could manifest itself in queries with
semi-join materialized subqueries.
When a subquery is materialized all conditions that are imposed
only on the columns belonging to the tables from the subquery
are taken into account.The code responsible for subquery optimizations
that employes subquery materialization makes sure to remove these
conditions from the WHERE conditions of the query obtained after
it has transformed the original query into a query with a semi-join.
If the condition to be removed is an equality condition it could
be added to ON expressions and/or conditions from disjunctive branches
(parts of OR conditions) in an attempt to generate better access keys
to the tables of the query. Such equalities are supposed to be removed
later from all the formulas where they have been added to.
However, erroneously, this was not done in some cases when an ON
expression and/or a disjunctive part of the OR condition could
be converted into one multiple equality. As a result some equality
predicates over columns belonging to the tables of the materialized
subquery remained in the ON condition and/or the a disjunctive
part of the OR condition, and the excuter later, when trying to
evaluate them, returned wrong answers as the values of the fields
from these equalities were not valid.
This happened because any standalone multiple equality (a multiple
equality that are not ANDed with any other predicates) lacked
the information about equality predicates inherited from upper
levels (in particular, inherited from the WHERE condition).
The fix adds a reference to such information to any standalone
multiple equality.
The wrong result set returned by the left join query from
the bug test case happened due to several inconsistencies
and bugs of the legacy mysql code.
The bug test case uses an execution plan that employs a scan
of a materialized IN subquery from the WHERE condition.
When materializing such an IN- subquery the optimizer injects
additional equalities into the WHERE clause. These equalities
express the constraints imposed by the subquery predicate.
The injected equality of the query in the test case happens
to belong to the same equality class, and a new equality
imposing a condition on the rows of the materialized subquery
is inferred from this class. Simultaneously the multiple
equality is added to the ON expression of the LEFT JOIN
used in the main query.
The inferred equality of the form f1=f2 is taken into account
when optimizing the scan of the rows the temporary table
that is the result of the subquery materialization: only the
values of the field f1 are read from the table into the record
buffer. Meanwhile the inferred equality is removed from the
WHERE conditions altogether as a constraint on the fields
of the temporary table that has been used when filling this table.
This equality is supposed to be removed from the ON expression
when the multiple equalities of the ON expression are converted
into an optimal set of equality predicates. It supposed to be
removed from the ON expression as an equality inferred from only
equalities of the WHERE condition. Yet, it did not happened
due to the following bug in the code.
Erroneously the code tried to build multiple equality for ON
expression twice: the first time, when it called optimize_cond()
for the WHERE condition, the second time, when it called
this function for the HAVING condition. When executing
optimize_con() for the WHERE condition a reference
to the multiple equality of the WHERE condition is set
in the multiple equality of the ON expression. This reference
would allow later to convert multiple equalities of the
ON expression into equality predicates. However the
the second call of build_equal_items() for the ON expression
that happened when optimize_cond() was called for the
HAVING condition reset this reference to NULL.
This bug fix blocks calling build_equal_items() for ON
expressions for the second time. In general, it will be
beneficial for many queries as it removes from ON
expressions any equalities that are to be checked for the
WHERE condition.
The patch also fixes two bugs in the list manipulation
operations and a bug in the function
substitute_for_best_equal_field() that resulted
in passing wrong reference to the multiple equalities
of where conditions when processing multiple
equalities of ON expressions.
The code of substitute_for_best_equal_field() and
the code the helper function eliminate_item_equal()
were also streamlined and cleaned up.
Now the conversion of the multiple equalities into
an optimal set of equality predicates first produces
the sequence of the all equalities processing multiple
equalities one by one, and, only after this, it inserts
the equalities at the beginning of the other conditions.
The multiple changes in the output of EXPLAIN
EXTENDED are mainly the result of this streamlining,
but in some cases is the result of the removal of
unneeded equalities from ON expressions. In
some test cases this removal were reflected in the
output of EXPLAIN resulted in disappearance of
“Using where” in some rows of the execution plans.
from a MERGE view.
The problem was in the lost ability to be null for the table of a left join if it
is a view/derived table.
It hapenned because setup_table_map(), was called earlier then we merged
the view or derived.
Fixed by propagating new maybe_null flag during Item::update_used_tables().
Change in join_outer.test and join_outer_jcl6.test appeared because
IS NULL reported no used tables (i.e. constant) for argument which could not be
NULL and new maybe_null flag was propagated for IS NULL argument (Item_field)
because table the Item_field belonged to changed its maybe_null status.
The problem was that in debugging binaries it try to print item to assign human readable name to the item.
But subquery item was already freed (join_free/cleanup with full cleanup) so Item_field refers to temporary
table which memory had been already freed.
