When processing queries like
INSERT INTO t1 (..) SELECT .. FROM t1, t2 ...,
there is a single query block (i.e., a single SELECT_LEX) for both INSERT and
SELECT parts. During hints resolution, when hints are attached to particular
TABLE_LIST's, the search is performed by table name across the whole
query block.
So, if a table mentioned in an optimizer hint is present in the INSERT part,
the hint is attached to the that table. This is obviously wrong as
optimizer hints are supposed to only affect the SELECT part of
an INSERT..SELECT clause.
This commit disables possible attaching hints to tables in the INSERT part
and fixes some other bugs related to INSERT..SELECT statements processing
This commit implements optimizer hints allowing to affect the order
of joining tables:
- JOIN_FIXED_ORDER similar to existing STRAIGHT_JOIN hint;
- JOIN_ORDER to apply the specified table order;
- JOIN_PREFIX to hint what tables should be first in the join;
- JOIN_SUFFIX to hint what tables should be last in the join.
- remove get_args_printer() from hints printing
- add append_hint_arguments(THD *thd, opt_hints_enum hint, String *str)
- add more comments
- rename st_opt_hint_info::hint_name to hint_type
- add pptimizer trace support for hints
- add dbug_print_hints()
- make print_warn() not be a template
- introduce Printable_parser_rule interface, make grammar rules that
emit warnings implement it and print_warn invokes its function)
- remove Parser::Hint::append_args() as it is not used anywhere
(it used to be necessary call print_warn(... (Parser::Hint*)NULL);
It places a limit N (a timeout value in milliseconds) on how long
a statement is permitted to execute before the server terminates it.
Syntax:
SELECT /*+ MAX_EXECUTION_TIME(milliseconds) */ ...
Only top-level SELECT statements support the hint.
- Using Lex_ident_sys to scan identifiers, like the SQL parser does.
This fixes handling of double-quote-delimited and backtick-delimited identifiers,
as well as handling of non-ASCII identifiers.
Unescaping and converting from the client character set to the system
character set is now done using Lex_ident_cli_st and Lex_ident_sys,
like it's done in the SQL tokenizer/parser.
Adding helper methods to_ident_cli() and to_ident_sys()
in Optimizer_hint_parser::Token.
- Fixing the hint parser to report a syntax error when an empty identifiers:
SELECT /*+ BKA(``) */ * FROM t1;
- Moving a part of the code from opt_hints_parser.h to opt_hints_parser.cc
Moving these method definitions:
- Optimizer_hint_tokenizer::find_keyword()
- Optimizer_hint_tokenizer::get_token()
to avoid huge pieces of the code in the header file.
- A Lex_ident_cli_st cleanup
Fixing a few Lex_ident_cli_st methods to return Lex_ident_cli_st &
instead of void, to use them easier in the caller code.
- Fixing the hint parser to display the correct line number
Adding a new data type Lex_comment_st
(a combination of LEX_CSTRING and a line number)
Using it in sql_yacc.yy
- Getting rid of redundant dependencies on sql_hints_parser.h
Moving void LEX::resolve_optimizer_hints() from sql_lex.h to sql_lex.cc
Adding a class Optimizer_hint_parser_output, deriving from
Optimizer_hint_parser::Hint_list. Fixing the hint parser to
return a pointer to an allocated instance of Optimizer_hint_parser_output
rather than an instance of Optimizer_hint_parser::Hint_list.
This allows to use a forward declaration of Optimizer_hint_parser_output
in sql_lex.h and thus avoid dependencies on sql_hints_parser.h.
This commit introduces:
- the infrastructure for optimizer hints;
- hints for join buffering: BNL(), NO_BNL(), BKA(), NO_BKA();
- NO_ICP() hint for disabling index condition pushdown;
- MRR(), MO_MRR() hint for multi-range reads control;
- NO_RANGE_OPTIMIZATION() for disabling range optimization;
- QB_NAME() for assigning names for query blocks.
