Do not attempt to produce "r_engine_stats" on the temporary (=work) tables.
These tables may be
- re-created during the query execution
- freed during the query execution (This is done e.g. in JOIN::cleanup(),
before we produce ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON output).
- (Also, make save_explain_data() functions not set handler_for_stats
to point to handler objects that do not have handler->handler_stats set.
If the storage engine is not collecting handler_stats, it will not have
them when we're producing ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON output, either).
ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON output now includes table.r_engine_stats which
has the engine statistics. Only non-zero members are printed.
Internally: EXPLAIN data structures Explain_table_acccess and
Explain_update now have handler* handler_for_stats pointer.
It is used to read statistics from handler_for_stats->handler_stats.
The following applies only to 10.9+, backport doesn't use it:
Explain data structures exist after the tables are closed. We avoid
walking invalid pointers using this:
- SQL layer calls Explain_query::notify_tables_are_closed() before
closing tables.
- After that call, printing of JSON output is disabled. Non-JSON output
can be printed but we don't access handler_for_stats when doing that.
