OVERVIEW
This file contains table elimination module. The idea behind table
elimination is as follows: suppose we have a left join
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN
(t2 JOIN t3) ON t3.primary_key=t1.col AND
t4.primary_key=t2.col
such that
* columns of the inner tables are not used anywhere ouside the outer join
(not in WHERE, not in GROUP/ORDER BY clause, not in select list etc etc),
* inner side of the outer join is guaranteed to produce at most one matching
record combination for each record combination of outer tables.
then the inner side of the outer join can be removed from the query, as it
will always produce only one record combination (either real or
null-complemented one) and we don't care about what that record combination
is.
MODULE INTERFACE
The module has one entry point - eliminate_tables() function, which one
needs to call (once) at some point before the join optimization.
eliminate_tables() operates over the JOIN structures. Logically, it
removes the right sides of outer join nests. Physically, it changes the
following members:
* Eliminated tables are marked as constant and moved to the front of the
join order.
* In addition to this, they are recorded in JOIN::eliminated_tables bitmap.
* Items that became disused because they were in the ON expression of an
eliminated outer join are notified by means of the Item tree walk which
calls Item::mark_as_eliminated_processor for every item
- At the moment the only Item that cares whether it was eliminated is
Item_subselect with its Item_subselect::eliminated flag which is used
by EXPLAIN code to check if the subquery should be shown in EXPLAIN.
Table elimination is redone on every PS re-execution.
TABLE ELIMINATION ALGORITHM
As said above, we can remove inner side of an outer join if it is
1. not referred to from any other parts of the query
2. always produces one matching record combination.
We check #1 by doing a recursive descent down the join->join_list while
maintaining a union of used_tables() attribute of all expressions we've seen
"elsewhere". When we encounter an outer join, we check if the bitmap of
tables on its inner side has an intersection with tables that are used
elsewhere. No intersection means that inner side of the outer join could
potentially be eliminated.
In order to check #2, one needs to prove that inner side of an outer join
is functionally dependent on the outside. We prove dependency by proving
functional dependency of intermediate objects:
- Inner side of outer join is functionally dependent when each of its tables
are functionally dependent. (We assume a table is functionally dependent
when its dependencies allow to uniquely identify one table record, or no
records).
- Table is functionally dependent when it has got a unique key whose columns
are functionally dependent.
- A column is functionally dependent when we could locate an AND-part of a
certain ON clause in form
tblX.columnY= expr
where expr is functionally-depdendent.
Apparently the above rules can be applied recursively. Also, certain entities
depend on multiple other entities. We model this by a bipartite graph which
has two kinds of nodes:
Value nodes:
- Table column values (each is a value of tblX.columnY)
- Table nodes (each node represents a table inside an eliminable join nest).
each value is either bound (i.e. functionally dependent) or not.
Module nodes:
- Nodes representing tblX.colY=expr equalities. Equality node has
= incoming edges from columns used in expr
= outgoing edge to tblX.colY column.
- Nodes representing unique keys. Unique key has
= incoming edges from key component value nodes
= outgoing edge to key's table node
- Inner side of outer join node. Outer join node has
= incoming edges from table value nodes
= No outgoing edges. Once we reach it, we know we can eliminate the
outer join.
A module may depend on multiple values, and hence its primary attribute is
the number of its depedencies that are not bound.
The algorithm starts with equality nodes that don't have any incoming edges
(their expressions are either constant or depend only on tables that are
outside of any outer joins) and proceeds to traverse dependency->dependant
edges until we've other traversed everything (TODO rephrase elaborate), or
we've reached the point where all outer join modules have zero unsatisfied
dependencies.

Perform an OR operation on two (adjacent) Equality_module arrays.
SYNOPSIS
merge_func_deps()
start Start of left OR-part
new_fields Start of right OR-part
end End of right OR-part
and_level AND-level.
DESCRIPTION
This function is invoked for two adjacent arrays of Equality_module elements:
$LEFT_PART $RIGHT_PART
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
start new_fields end
The goal is to produce an array which would correspnd to the combined
$LEFT_PART OR $RIGHT_PART
condition. This is achieved as follows: First, we apply distrubutive law:
(fdep_A_1 AND fdep_A_2 AND ...) OR (fdep_B_1 AND fdep_B_2 AND ...) =
= AND_ij (fdep_A_[i] OR fdep_B_[j])
Then we walk over the obtained "fdep_A_[i] OR fdep_B_[j]" pairs, and
- Discard those that that have left and right part referring to different
columns. We can't infer anything useful from "col1=expr1 OR col2=expr2".
- When left and right parts refer to the same column, we check if they are
essentially the same.
= If they are the same, we keep one copy
"t.col=expr OR t.col=expr" -> "t.col=expr
= if they are different , then we discard both
"t.col=expr1 OR t.col=expr2" -> (nothing useful)
(no per-table or for-index FUNC_DEPS exist yet at this phase).

Perform table elimination
SYNOPSIS
eliminate_tables()
join Join to work on
const_tbl_count INOUT Number of constant tables (this includes
eliminated tables)
const_tables INOUT Bitmap of constant tables
DESCRIPTION
This function is the entry point for table elimination.
The idea behind table elimination is that if we have an outer join:
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN
(t2 JOIN t3) ON t3.primary_key=t1.col AND
t4.primary_key=t2.col
such that
1. columns of the inner tables are not used anywhere ouside the outer
join (not in WHERE, not in GROUP/ORDER BY clause, not in select list
etc etc), and
2. inner side of the outer join is guaranteed to produce at most one
record combination for each record combination of outer tables.
then the inner side of the outer join can be removed from the query.
This is because it will always produce one matching record (either a
real match or a NULL-complemented record combination), and since there
are no references to columns of the inner tables anywhere, it doesn't
matter which record combination it was.
This function primary handles checking #1. It collects a bitmap of
tables that are not used in select list/GROUP BY/ORDER BY/HAVING/etc and
thus can possibly be eliminated.

/*
Perform table elimination in a given join list
SYNOPSIS
eliminate_tables_for_list()
join The join
leaves_arr OUT Store here an array of leaf (base) tables that
are descendants of the join_list, and increment
the pointer to point right above the array.
join_list Join list to work on
its_outer_join TRUE <=> join_list is an inner side of an outer
join
FALSE <=> otherwise (this is top-level join list)
tables_in_list Bitmap of tables embedded in the join_list.
tables_used_elsewhere Bitmap of tables that are referred to from
somewhere outside of the join list (e.g.
select list, HAVING, etc).
DESCRIPTION
Perform table elimination for a join list.
Try eliminating children nests first.
The "all tables in join nest can produce only one matching record
combination" property checking is modeled after constant table detection,
plus we reuse info attempts to eliminate child join nests.
RETURN
Number of children left after elimination. 0 means everything was
eliminated.
