- multi_range_read_info_const now uses the new records_in_range interface
- Added handler::avg_io_cost()
- Don't calculate avg_io_cost() in get_sweep_read_cost if avg_io_cost is
not 1.0. In this case we trust the avg_io_cost() from the handler.
- Changed test_quick_select to use TIME_FOR_COMPARE instead of
TIME_FOR_COMPARE_IDX to align this with the rest of the code.
- Fixed bug when using test_if_cheaper_ordering where we didn't use
keyread if index was changed
- Fixed a bug where we didn't use index only read when using order-by-index
- Added keyread_time() to HEAP.
The default keyread_time() was optimized for blocks and not suitable for
HEAP. The effect was the HEAP prefered table scans over ranges for btree
indexes.
- Fixed get_sweep_read_cost() for HEAP tables
- Ensure that range and ref have same cost for simple ranges
Added a small cost (MULTI_RANGE_READ_SETUP_COST) to ranges to ensure
we favior ref for range for simple queries.
- Fixed that matching_candidates_in_table() uses same number of records
as the rest of the optimizer
- Added avg_io_cost() to JT_EQ_REF cost. This helps calculate the cost for
HEAP and temporary tables better. A few tests changed because of this.
- heap::read_time() and heap::keyread_time() adjusted to not add +1.
This was to ensure that handler::keyread_time() doesn't give
higher cost for heap tables than for normal tables. One effect of
this is that heap and derived tables stored in heap will prefer
key access as this is now regarded as cheap.
- Changed cost for index read in sql_select.cc to match
multi_range_read_info_const(). All index cost calculation is now
done trough one function.
- 'ref' will now use quick_cost for keys if it exists. This is done
so that for '=' ranges, 'ref' is prefered over 'range'.
- scan_time() now takes avg_io_costs() into account
- get_delayed_table_estimates() uses block_size and avg_io_cost()
- Removed default argument to test_if_order_by_key(); simplifies code
This task deals with packing the non-sorted fields (or addon fields).
This would lead to efficient usage of the memory allocated for the sort buffer.
The changes brought by this feature are
1) Sort buffers would have records of variable length
2) Each record in the sort buffer would be stored like
<sort_key1><sort_key2>....<addon_length><null_bytes><field1><field2>....
addon_length is the extra bytes that are required to store the variable
length of addon field across different records.
3) Changes in rr_unpack_from_buffer and rr_from_tempfile to take into account
the variable length of records.

Modern compilers (such as GCC 8) emit warnings that the
'register' keyword is deprecated and not valid C++17.
Let us remove most use of the 'register' keyword.
Code in 'extra/' is not touched.
filesort and init_read_record() for the same table.
This will simplify code for WINDOW FUNCTIONS (MDEV-6115)
- Filesort_info renamed to SORT_INFO and moved to filesort.h
- filesort now returns SORT_INFO
- init_read_record() now takes a SORT_INFO parameter.
- unique declaration is moved to uniques.h
- subselect caching of buffers is now more explicit than before
- filesort_buffer is now reusable even if rec_length has changed.
- filsort_free_buffers() and free_io_cache() calls are removed
- Remove one malloc() when using get_addon_fields()
Other things:
- Added --debug-assert-on-not-freed-memory option to make it easier to
debug some not-freed-memory issues.
