/* 
  Fill in the descriptor of a flag field associated with a join cache    

  SYNOPSIS
    add_field_flag_to_join_cache()
      str           position in a record buffer to copy the field from/to
      length        length of the field 
      field  IN/OUT pointer to the field descriptor to fill in 

  DESCRIPTION
    The function fill in the descriptor of a cache flag field to which
    the parameter 'field' points to. The function uses the first two
    parameters to set the position in the record buffer from/to which 
    the field value is to be copied and the length of the copied fragment. 
    Before returning the result the function increments the value of
    *field by 1.
    The function ignores the fields 'blob_length' and 'ofset' of the
    descriptor.

  RETURN VALUE

/* 
  Create descriptors of the record flag fields stored in the join buffer 

  SYNOPSIS
    create_flag_fields()

  DESCRIPTION
    The function creates descriptors of the record flag fields stored
    in the join buffer. These are descriptors for:
    - an optional match flag field,
    - table null bitmap fields, 
    - table null row fields.
    The match flag field is created when 'join_tab' is the first inner
    table of an outer join our a semi-join. A null bitmap field is
    created for any table whose fields are to be stored in the join
    buffer if at least one of these fields is nullable or is a BIT field
    whose bits are partially stored with null bits. A null row flag
    is created for any table assigned to the cache if it is an inner
    table of an outer join.
    The descriptor for flag fields are placed one after another at the
    beginning of the array of field descriptors 'field_descr' that
    contains 'fields' elements. If there is a match flag field the 
    descriptor for it is always first in the sequence of flag fields.
    The descriptors for other flag fields can follow in an arbitrary
    order. 
    The flag field values follow in a record stored in the join buffer
    in the same order as field descriptors, with the match flag always
    following first.
    The function sets the value of 'flag_fields' to the total number
    of the descriptors created for the flag fields.

/* 
  Create descriptors of the fields used to build access keys to the joined table

  SYNOPSIS
    create_key_arg_fields()

  DESCRIPTION
    The function creates descriptors of the record fields stored in the join
    buffer that are used to build access keys to the joined table. These
    fields are put into the buffer ahead of other records fields stored in
    the buffer. Such placement helps to optimize construction of access keys.
    For each field that is used to build access keys to the joined table but
    is stored in some other join cache buffer the function saves a pointer
    to the the field descriptor. The array of such pointers are placed in the
    the join cache structure just before the array of pointers to the
    blob fields blob_ptr.
    Any field stored in a join cache buffer that is used to construct keys
    to access tables associated with other join caches is called a referenced
    field. It receives a unique number that is saved by the function in the
    member 'referenced_field_no' of the CACHE_FIELD descriptor for the field.
    This number is used as index to the array of offsets to the referenced
    fields that are saved and put in the join cache buffer after all record
    fields.
    The function also finds out whether that the keys to access join_tab
    can be considered as embedded and, if so, sets the flag 'use_emb_key' in
    this join cache appropriately. 
     
  NOTES.
    When a key to access the joined table 'join_tab' is constructed the array
    of pointers to the field descriptors for the external fields is looked
    through. For each of this pointers we find out in what previous key cache
    the referenced field is stored. The value of 'referenced_field_no'
    provides us with the index into the array of offsets for referenced 
    fields stored in the join cache. The offset read by the the index allows
    us to read the field without reading all other fields of the record 
    stored the join cache buffer. This optimizes the construction of keys
    to access 'join_tab' when some key arguments are stored in the previous
    join caches.  

  NOTES
    The function does not do anything if no key is used to join the records
    from join_tab.

/* 
  Create descriptors of all remaining data fields stored in the join buffer    

  SYNOPSIS
    create_remaining_fields()

  DESCRIPTION
    The function creates descriptors for all remaining data fields of a
    record from the join buffer. If the value returned by is_key_access() is
    false the function creates fields for all read record fields that
    comprise the partial join record joined with join_tab. Otherwise, 
    for each table tab, the set of the read fields for which the descriptors
    have to be added is determined as the difference between all read fields
    and and those for which the descriptors have been already created.
    The latter are supposed to be marked in the bitmap tab->table->tmp_set.
    The function increases the value of 'length' to the the total length of
    the added fields.
   
  NOTES
    If is_key_access() returns true the function modifies the value of
    tab->table->tmp_set for a each table whose fields are stored in the cache.
    The function calls the method Field::fill_cache_field to figure out
    the type of the cache field and the maximal length of its representation
    in the join buffer. If this is a blob field then additionally a pointer
    to this field is added as an element of the array blob_ptr. For a blob
    field only the size of the length of the blob data is taken into account.
    It is assumed that 'data_field_count' contains the number of descriptors
    for data fields that have been already created and 'data_field_ptr_count'
    contains the number of the pointers to such descriptors having been
    stored up to the moment.

  RETURN VALUE

    used to store record lengths.
    The function also calculates the maximal length of the representation

  Allocate memory for a join buffer      

  SYNOPSIS
    alloc_buffer()

  DESCRIPTION
    The function allocates a lump of memory for the cache join buffer. 
    Initially the function sets the size of the buffer buff_size equal to
    the value returned by get_max_join_buffer_size(). If the total size of
    the space intended to be used for the join buffers employed by the
    tables from the first one through join_tab exceeds the value of the

    to shrink the used buffers to make the occupied space fit the maximum
    memory allowed to be used for all join buffers in total. After
    this the function tries to allocate a join buffer for join_tab.
    If it fails to do so, it decrements the requested size of the join
    buffer, shrinks proportionally the join buffers used for the previous
    tables and tries to allocate a buffer for join_tab. In the case of a
    failure the function repeats its attempts with smaller and smaller
    requested sizes of the buffer, but not more than 4 times.

/* 
  Check the possibility to read the access keys directly from the join buffer       
  SYNOPSIS
    check_emb_key_usage()

  DESCRIPTION
    The function checks some conditions at which the key values can be read
    directly from the join buffer. This is possible when the key values can be
    composed by concatenation of the record fields stored in the join buffer.
    Sometimes when the access key is multi-component the function has to re-order
    the fields written into the join buffer to make keys embedded. If key 
    values for the key access are detected as embedded then 'use_emb_key'
    is set to TRUE.

  EXAMPLE
    Let table t2 has an index defined on the columns a,b . Let's assume also
    that the columns t2.a, t2.b as well as the columns t1.a, t1.b are all
    of the integer type. Then if the query
      SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t1, t2 WHERE t1.a=t2.a and t1.b=t2.b  
    is executed with a join cache in such a way that t1 is the driving
    table then the key values to access table t2 can be read directly
    from the join buffer.
  
  NOTES
    In some cases key values could be read directly from the join buffer but
    we still do not consider them embedded. In the future we'll expand the
    the class of keys which we identify as embedded.

  NOTES
    The function returns FALSE if no key is used to join the records
    from join_tab.

  RETURN VALUE
    TRUE    key values will be considered as embedded,
    FALSE   otherwise.

/* 
  Write record fields and their required offsets into the join cache buffer

  SYNOPSIS
    write_record_data()
      link        a reference to the associated info in the previous cache
      is_full OUT true if it has been decided that no more records will be
                  added to the join buffer

  DESCRIPTION
    This function put into the cache buffer the following info that it reads
    from the join record buffers or computes somehow:
    (1) the length of all fields written for the record (optional)
    (2) an offset to the associated info in the previous cache (if there is any)
        determined by the link parameter
    (3) all flag fields of the tables whose data field are put into the cache:
        - match flag (optional),
        - null bitmaps for all tables,
        - null row flags for all tables
    (4) values of all data fields including
        - full images of those fixed legth data fields that cannot have 
          trailing spaces
        - significant part of fixed length fields that can have trailing spaces
          with the prepanded length 
        - data of non-blob variable length fields with the prepanded data length  
        - blob data from blob fields with the prepanded data length
    (5) record offset values for the data fields that are referred to from 
        other caches
 
    The record is written at the current position stored in the field 'pos'.
    At the end of the function 'pos' points at the position right after the 
    written record data.
    The function increments the number of records in the cache that is stored
    in the 'records' field by 1. The function also modifies the values of
    'curr_rec_pos' and 'last_rec_pos' to point to the written record.
    The 'end_pos' cursor is modified accordingly.
    The 'last_rec_blob_data_is_in_rec_buff' is set on if the blob data 
    remains in the record buffers and not copied to the join buffer. It may
    happen only to the blob data from the last record added into the cache.
    If on_precond is attached to join_tab and it is not evaluated to TRUE
    then MATCH_IMPOSSIBLE is placed in the match flag field of the record
    written into the join buffer.
       
  RETURN VALUE
    length of the written record data

/*
  Join records from the join buffer with records from the next join table    

  SYNOPSIS
    join_records()
      skip_last    do not find matches for the last record from the buffer

  DESCRIPTION
    The functions extends all records from the join buffer by the matched
    records from join_tab. In the case of outer join operation it also
    adds null complementing extensions for the records from the join buffer
    that have no match. 
    No extensions are generated for the last record from the buffer if
    skip_last is true.  

  NOTES
    The function must make sure that if linked join buffers are used then
    a join buffer cannot be refilled again until all extensions in the
    buffers chained to this one are generated.
    Currently an outer join operation with several inner tables always uses
    at least two linked buffers with the match join flags placed in the
    first buffer. Any record composed of rows of the inner tables that
    matches a record in this buffer must refer to the position of the
    corresponding match flag.

  IMPLEMENTATION
    When generating extensions for outer tables of an outer join operation
    first we generate all extensions for those records from the join buffer
    that have matches, after which null complementing extension for all
    unmatched records from the join buffer are generated.

/*   
  Find matches from the next table for records from the join buffer 

  SYNOPSIS
    join_matching_records()
      skip_last    do not look for matches for the last partial join record 

  DESCRIPTION
    The function retrieves rows of the join_tab table and checks whether they
    match partial join records from the join buffer. If a match is found
    the function will call the sub_select function trying to look for matches
    for the remaining join operations.
    This function currently is called only from the function join_records.    
    If the value of skip_last is true the function writes the partial join
    record from the record buffer into the join buffer to save its value for
    the future processing in the caller function.

  NOTES
    If employed by BNL or BNLH join algorithms the function performs a full
    scan of join_tab for each refill of the join buffer. If BKA or BKAH
    algorithms are used then the function iterates only over those records
    from join_tab that can be accessed by keys built over records in the join
    buffer. To apply a proper method of iteration the function just calls
    virtual iterator methods (open, next, close) of the member join_tab_scan.
    The member can be either of the JOIN_TAB_SCAN or JOIN_TAB_SCAN_MMR type.
    The class JOIN_TAB_SCAN provides the iterator methods for BNL/BNLH join
    algorithms. The class JOIN_TAB_SCAN_MRR provides the iterator methods
    for BKA/BKAH join algorithms.
    When the function looks for records from the join buffer that would
    match a record from join_tab it iterates either over all records in
    the buffer or only over selected records. If BNL join operation is
    performed all records are checked for the match. If BNLH or BKAH
    algorithm is employed to join join_tab then the function looks only
    through the records with the same join key as the record from join_tab.
    With the BKA join algorithm only one record from the join buffer is checked
    for a match for any record from join_tab. To iterate over the candidates
    for a match the virtual function get_next_candidate_for_match is used,
    while the virtual function prepare_look_for_matches is called to prepare
    for such iteration proccess.     

  NOTES
    The function produces all matching extensions for the records in the 
    join buffer following the path of the employed blocked algorithm. 
    When an outer join operation is performed all unmatched records from
    the join buffer must be extended by null values. The function 
    'join_null_complements' serves this purpose.

Prepare to read the record from BKA cache matching the current joined record

DESCRIPTION
  The function prepares to iterate over records in the join cache buffer
  matching the record loaded into the record buffer for join_tab when
  performing join operation by BKA join algorithm. With BKA algorithms the
  record loaded into the record buffer for join_tab always has a direct
  reference to the matching records from the join buffer. When the regular
  BKA join algorithm is employed the record from join_tab can refer to
  only one such record.   
  The function sets the counter of the remaining records from the cache 
  buffer that would match the current join_tab record to 1.
  
RETURN VALUE   
  TRUE    there are no records in the buffer to iterate over 
  FALSE   otherwise

Get the key built over the next record from BKA join buffer

SYNOPSIS
  get_next_key()
    key    pointer to the buffer where the key value is to be placed

DESCRIPTION
  The function reads key fields from the current record in the join buffer.
  and builds the key value out of these fields that will be used to access
  the 'join_tab' table. Some of key fields may belong to previous caches.
  They are accessed via record references to the record parts stored in the
  previous join buffers. The other key fields always are placed right after
  the flag fields of the record.
  If the key is embedded, which means that its value can be read directly
  from the join buffer, then *key is set to the beginning of the key in
  this buffer. Otherwise the key is built in the join_tab->ref->key_buff.
  The function returns the length of the key if it succeeds ro read it.
  If is assumed that the functions starts reading at the position of
  the record length which is provided for each records in a BKA cache.
  After the key is built the 'pos' value points to the first position after
  the current record.
  The function just skips the records with MATCH_IMPOSSIBLE in the
  match flag field if there is any. 
  The function returns 0 if the initial position is after the beginning
  of the record fields for last record from the join buffer. 

RETURN VALUE

  the position before the fields for the last record,

/*
Check the index condition of the joined table for a record from the BKA cache

SYNOPSIS
  skip_index_tuple()
    range_info       pointer to the record returned by MRR 
  
DESCRIPTION
  This function is invoked from MRR implementation to check if an index
  tuple matches the index condition. It is used in the case where the index
  condition actually depends on both columns of the used index and columns
  from previous tables.
 
NOTES 
  Accessing columns of the previous tables requires special handling with
  BKA. The idea of BKA is to collect record combinations in a buffer and 
  then do a batch of ref access lookups, i.e. by the time we're doing a
  lookup its previous-records-combination is not in prev_table->record[0]
  but somewhere in the join buffer.    
  We need to get it from there back into prev_table(s)->record[0] before we
  can evaluate the index condition, and that's why we need this function
  instead of regular IndexConditionPushdown.

NOTES
  Possible optimization:
  Before we unpack the record from a previous table
  check if this table is used in the condition.
  If so then unpack the record otherwise skip the unpacking.
  This should be done by a special virtual method
  get_partial_record_by_pos().

RETURN VALUE
  1    the record combination does not satisfies the index condition
  0    otherwise
