- Tabular EXPLAIN now prints "RECURSIVE UNION".
- There is a basic implementation of EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON.
- it produces "recursive_union" JSON struct
- No other details or ANALYZE support, yet.
Fixes over the original patch:
- Fix variable/class/other names
- Fix the JSON output to be in line with the output of other JSON
constructs we produce
- Remove ANALYZE's timing code off the the execution path of regular
SELECTs.
- Improve the tracker that tracks counts/execution times of SELECTs or
DML statements:
= regular execution just increments counters
= ANALYZE will also collect timings.
Show total execution time (r_total_time_ms) for various parts of the
query:
1. time spent in SELECTs
2. time spent reading rows from storage engines
#2 currently gets the data from P_S.
- Changed 0x%lx -> %p
array.c:
- Static (preallocated) buffer can now be anywhere
my_sys.h
- Define MY_INIT_BUFFER_USED
sql_delete.cc & sql_lex.cc
- Use memroot when allocating classes (avoids call to current_thd)
sql_explain.h:
- Use preallocated buffers
sql_explain.cc:
- Use preallocated buffers and memroot
sql_select.cc:
- Use multi_alloc_root() instead of many alloc_root()
- Update calls to Explain
- Switch Explain data structure from "flat" representation of
SJ-Materialization into nested one.
- Update functions that print tabular output to operate on the
nested structure.
- Add function to generate JSON output.
- Basic support for JOIN buffering
- The output is not polished but catches the main point:
tab->select_cond and tab->cache_select->cond are printed separately.
- Hash join support is poor still.
- Also fixed identation in JOIN_TAB::save_explain_data
Writing JSON:
- Fix a bug in Single_line_formatting_helper
- Add Json_writer_nesting_guard - safety class
EXPLAIN JSON support
- Add basic subquery support
- Add tests for UNION/UNION ALL.
- In print_explain_row(), do not forget to print r_rows.
- Switch Explain_update from using its own counters to re-using
Table_access_tracker.
- Make ANALYZE UPDATE code structure uniform with ANALYZE DELETE.
- "ANALYZE $stmt" should discard select's output, but it should still
evaluate the output columns (otherwise, subqueries in select list
are not executed)
- SHOW EXPLAIN's code practice of calling JOIN::save_explain_data()
after JOIN::exec() is disastrous for ANALYZE, because it resets
all counters after the first execution. It is stopped
= "Late" test_if_skip_sort_order() calls explicitly update their part
of the query plan.
= Also, I had to rewrite I_S optimization to actually have optimization
and execution stages.
