Fix for BUG#20954: avg(keyval) retuns 0.38 but max(keyval) returns an empty set
The problem was in that opt_sum_query() replaced MIN/MAX functions with the corresponding constant found in a key, but due to imprecise representation of float numbers, when evaluating the where clause, this comparison failed. When MIN/MAX optimization detects that all tables can be removed, also remove all conjuncts in a where clause that refer to these tables. As a result of this fix, these conditions are not evaluated twice, and in the case of float number comparisons we do not discard result rows due to imprecise float representation. As a side-effect this fix also corrects an unnoticed problem in bug 12882. mysql-test/r/func_group.result: BUG#20954 - test result adjustment. Adjusted the test result of bug 12882 which was not preperly fixed. The current patch corrects the problem that was fully corrected by the patch for 12882. The problem was that opt_sum_query() indicated that the optimizer may remove all tables because all MIN/MAX/COUNT functions are constants, but this lead to an empty result instead of NULL because the WHERE clause was still evaluated. The current fix removes all conjuncts in the where clause that reference the removed tables, and thus corrects the problem. mysql-test/r/select.result: BUG#20954 - added test mysql-test/r/subselect.result: BUG#20954 - test result adjustment. The fix removes those conditions in a where clause that refer to tables optimized away by MIN/MAX optimization (opt_sum_query()). mysql-test/t/select.test: BUG#20954 - added test sql/sql_select.cc: Fix for BUG#20954: avg(keyval) retuns 0.38 but max(keyval) returns an empty set When MIN/MAX optimization detects that all tables can be removed, also remove all conjuncts in a where clause that refer to these tables. As a result of this fix, these conditions are not evaluated twice, and in the case of float number comparisons we do not discard result rows due to imprecise float representation.
