bug lp:611379 Equivalent queries with Impossible where return different results
The following two equivalent queries return different results in maria 5.2 and 5.3 (and identical results in mysql 5.5.5) :
SELECT SUM( DISTINCT table1 .`pk` ) FROM B table1 STRAIGHT_JOIN ( BB table2 JOIN CC ON table2 .`col_varchar_key` ) ON table2 .`pk` ;
SELECT * FROM ( SELECT SUM( DISTINCT table1 .`pk` ) FROM B table1 STRAIGHT_JOIN ( BB table2 JOIN CC ON table2 .`col_varchar_key` ) ON table2 .`pk` );
MariaDB returns 0 on the second query and NULL on the first, whereas MySQL returns NULL on both. In MariaDB, both EXPLAIN plans agree that "Impossible WHERE noticed after reading const tables"
We have some slightly different output in drizzle:
main.bug_lp611379 [ fail ]
drizzletest: At line 9: query 'explain select * from (select sum(distinct t1.a) from t1,t2 where t1.a=t2.a)
as t' failed: 1048: Column 'sum(distinct t1.a)' cannot be null
but the fix gets us the correct query results, although with slightly different execution plans.
This fix is directly ported from MariaDB.
