* fix the truncate-by-handler variant, used by InnoDB * test that insert works after truncate, meaning graph table was emptied * test that the vector index size is zero after truncate in MyISAM

This patch fixes only TRUNCATE by recreate variant, there seem to be no reasonable engine that uses TRUNCATE by handler method for testing. Reset index_cinfo so that mi_create is not confused by garbage passed via index_file_name and sets MY_DELETE_OLD flag. Review question: can we add a test case to make sure VECTOR index is empty indeed?

This commit introduces two utility functions meant to make working with vectors simpler. Vec_ToText converts a binary vector into a json array of numbers (floats). Vec_FromText takes in a json array of numbers and converts it into a little-endian IEEE float sequence of bytes (4 bytes per float).

This method will write out a float to a String object, keeping the charset of the original string. Also have Float::to_string make use of String::append_float

introduced a generosity factor that makes the search less greedy. it dramatically improves the recall by making the search a bit slower (for the same recall one can use half the M and smaller ef). had to add Queue::safe_push() method that removes one of the furthest elements (not necessarily the furthest) in the queue to keep it from overflowing.

to return only as many elements as needed, the caller no longer needs to overallocate result arrays for throwaway nodes

use int16_t instead of floats, they're faster and smaller. but perform intermediate SIMD calculations with floats to avoid overflows. recall drop with such scheme is below 0.002, often none. int8_t would've been better but the precision loss is too big and recall degrades too much.

make handler::prepare_for_insert() to be called to prepare the handler for writes, INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE.

When the source row is deleted, mark the corresponding node in HNSW index by setting `tref` to null. An index is added for the `tref` in secondary table for faster searching of the to-be-marked nodes. The nodes marked as deleted will still be used for search, but will not be included in the final query results. As skipping deleted nodes and not adding deleted nodes for new-inserted nodes' neighbor list could impact the performance, we now only skip these nodes in search results. - for some reason the bitmap is not set for hlindex during the delete so I had to temporarily comment out one line All new code of the whole pull request, including one or several files that are either new files or modified ones, are contributed under the BSD-new license.

* preserve the graph in memory between statements * keep it in a TABLE_SHARE, available for concurrent searches * nodes are generally read-only, walking the graph doesn't change them * distance to target is cached, calculated only once * SIMD-optimized bloom filter detects visited nodes * nodes are stored in an array, not List, to better utilize bloom filter * auto-adjusting heuristic to estimate the number of visited nodes (to configure the bloom filter) * many threads can concurrently walk the graph. MEM_ROOT and Hash_set are protected with a mutex, but walking doesn't need them * up to 8 threads can concurrently load nodes into the cache, nodes are partitioned into 8 mutexes (8 is chosen arbitrarily, might need tuning) * concurrent editing is not supported though * this is fine for MyISAM, TL_WRITE protects the TABLE_SHARE and the graph (note that TL_WRITE_CONCURRENT_INSERT is not allowed, because an INSERT into the main table means multiple UPDATEs in the graph) * InnoDB uses secondary transaction-level caches linked in a list in in thd->ha_data via a fake handlerton * on rollback the secondary cache is discarded, on commit nodes from the secondary cache are invalidated in the shared cache while it is exclusively locked * on savepoint rollback both caches are flushed. this can be improved in the future with a row visibility callback * graph size is controlled by @@mhnsw_cache_size, the cache is flushed when it reaches the threshold

instead of one row per node per layer, have one row per node. store all neighbors for all layers in that row, and the vector itself too it completely avoids searches in the graph table and will allow to implement deletions in the future

1. introduce alpha. the value of 1.1 is optimal, so hard-code it. 2. hard-code ef_construction=10, best by test 3. rename hnsw_max_connection_per_layer to mhnsw_max_edges_per_node (max_connection is rather ambiguous in MariaDB) and add a help text 4. rename hnsw_ef_search to mhnsw_min_limit and add a help text

* mhnsw: * use primary key, innodb loves and (and the index cannot have dupes anyway) * MyISAM is ok with that, performance-wise * must be ha_rnd_init(0) because we aren't going to scan * MyISAM resets the position on ha_rnd_init(0) so query it before * oh, and use the correct handler, just in case * HA_ERR_RECORD_IS_THE_SAME is no error * innodb: * return ref_length on create * don't assume table->pos_in_table_list is set * ok, assume away, but only for system versioned tables * set alter_info on create (InnoDB needs to check for FKs) * pair external_lock/external_unlock correctly

Now there's an FVector class which is a pure vector, an array of floats. It doesn't necessarily corresponds to a row in the table, and usually there is only one FVector instance - the one we're searching for. And there's an FVectorNode class, which is a node in the graph. It has a ref (identifying a row in the source table), possibly an array of floats (or not — in which case it will be read lazily from the source table as needed). There are many FVectorNodes and they're cached to avoid re-reading them from the disk.

move everything into a query-local memroot which is freed at the end

Sergei Golubchik authored
instead of pointers to FVectorRef's (which are stored elsewhere) let's return one big array of all refs. Freeing this array will free the complete result set.

* sysvars should be REQUIRED_ARG * fix a mix of US and UK spelling (use US) * use consistent naming * work if VEC_DISTANCE arguments are in the swapped order (const, col) * work if VEC_DISTANCE argument is NULL/invalid or wrong length * abort INSERT if the value is invalid or wrong length * store the "number of neighbors" in a blob in endianness-independent way * use field->store(longlong, bool) not field->store(double) * a lot more error checking everywhere * cleanup after errors * simplify calling conventions, remove reinterpret_cast's * todo/XXX comments * whitespaces * use float consistently memory management is still totally PoC quality Initial HNSW implementation

This commit includes the work done in collaboration with Hugo Wen from Amazon: MDEV-33408 Alter HNSW graph storage and fix memory leak This commit changes the way HNSW graph information is stored in the second table. Instead of storing connections as separate records, it now stores neighbors for each node, leading to significant performance improvements and storage savings. Comparing with the previous approach, the insert speed is 5 times faster, search speed improves by 23%, and storage usage is reduced by 73%, based on ann-benchmark tests with random-xs-20-euclidean and random-s-100-euclidean datasets. Additionally, in previous code, vector objects were not released after use, resulting in excessive memory consumption (over 20GB for building the index with 90,000 records), preventing tests with large datasets. Now ensure that vectors are released appropriately during the insert and search functions. Note there are still some vectors that need to be cleaned up after search query completion.
