HintsArchitecture
== Parsing ==
Hints have a separate parser, see sql/opt_hint_parser.{h,cc}
The parser is invoked separately for each occurence of
SELECT / *+ hint_body * / ...
in the query. The result of parsing is saved in
SELECT_LEX::parsed_optimizer_hints.
== Hint Resolution ==
This is done using "resolve" method of parsed data structures
This process
- Creates interpreted hint structures: Opt_hints_global, Opt_hints_qb,
Opt_hints_table, Opt_hints_key.
- Interprets QB_NAME hints and assigns Opt_hints_qb objects their names.
- Table-level hints are put into their Query Block's Opt_hints_qb object.
- Index-level hints are put into their table's Opt_hints_table object.
Currently, this process is done right after the parsing. It's done before
the views are opened. This is why hints cannot control anything inside
VIEWs, either in MariaDB or in MySQL.
Occurrences of hints are resolved in the order their SELECTs are parsed.
This is important as query block name declarations like
/ *+ QB_NAME(foo) * /
must be resolved before we try to resolve any references to foo, like
/ *+ SOME_HINT(table@foo ...) * /
On the other hand, references that use implicit query block names:
/ *+ SOME_HINT(table@`select#5`) * /
can only be resolved when select numbers are ready. When one uses CTEs,
proper select numbers are assigned in LEX::fix_first_select_number()
which is called after parsing has been finished.
Beause of that, LEX::handle_parsed_optimizer_hints_in_last_select() builds a
todo list for resolution and LEX::resolve_optimizer_hints() does the hint
resolution.
Query-block level hints can be reached through SELECT_LEX::opt_hints_qb.
== Hint "fixing" ==
During Name Resolution, hints are attached the real objects they control:
- table-level hints find their tables,
- index-level hints find their indexes.
This is done in setup_tables() which calls fix_hints_for_table() for
each table, as a result TABLE_LIST::opt_hints_table points to the table's
hints.
Non-index hints may be fixed before TABLE instances are available, by
calling fix_hints_for_derived_table and using a TABLE_LIST instance; as
the name implies, this is the case for derived tables (and such tables
are the only use case at this point).
== Hint hierarchy ==
Hints have this hierarchy, less specific to more specific:
Opt_hints_global
Opt_hints_qb
Opt_hints_table
Opt_hints_key
Opt_hints_key_bitmap
Some hints can be specified at a specific level (e.g. per-index) or at a
more general level (e.g. per-table). When checking the hint, we need
to check for per-index commands and then maybe per-table command.
== API for checking hints ==
The optimizer checks hints' instructions using these calls for table/index
level hints:
hint_table_state()
hint_table_state_or_fallback()
hint_key_state()
For query block-level hints:
opt_hints_qb->semijoin_enabled()
opt_hints_qb->sj_enabled_strategies()
opt_hints_qb->apply_join_order_hints(join) - This adds extra dependencies
between tables that ensure that the optimizer picks a join order
prescribed by the hints.
