PostgreSQL源码解读(33)-查询语句#18(查询优化-表达式预处理#3)

本节简单介绍了PG查询优化表达式预处理中的规范化过程。规范化具体的做法一是忽略NULL以及OR中的False,And中的True(实现函数find_duplicate_ors),二是拉平谓词(实现函数:pull_ors/pull_ands),三是清除重复的ORs(实现函数process_duplicate_ors)。这些函数位于文件src/backend/optimizer/prep/prepqual.c中。

一、布尔代数基础

规范化处理基于布尔/逻辑代数运算的相关基本定律:
幂等律 
A∪A = A
A∩A = A
交换律
A∪B = B∪A
A∩B = B∩A
结合律 
A∪(B∪С) = (A∪B) ∪ С
A∩(B∩С) = (A∩B)∩ С
吸收律 
A∪(A∩B) = A
A∩(A∪B) = A
分配律 
A∪(B∩С)=(A∪B)∩(A∪С)
A∩(B∪С)=(A∩B)∪(A∩С)
幺元律 
0∪A = A
1∩A = A
1∪A = 1
0∩A = 0
补余律 
A∪A' = 1
A∩A' = 0

二、基本概念

PG源码对规范化表达式的注释如下:

 /*
  * canonicalize_qual
  *    Convert a qualification expression to the most useful form.
  *    转换为最常规形式的表达式
  *
  * This is primarily intended to be used on top-level WHERE (or JOIN/ON)
  * clauses.  It can also be used on top-level CHECK constraints, for which
  * pass is_check = true.  DO NOT call it on any expression that is not known
  * to be one or the other, as it might apply inappropriate simplifications.
  * 规范化注意用于最高层的Where/Check(输入参数:is_check = true)语句中,如果不是这类语句,不要使用否则会产生不匹配的简化(PG这里加入了DEBUG信息)
  * 
  * The name of this routine is a holdover from a time when it would try to
  * force the expression into canonical AND-of-ORs or OR-of-ANDs form.
  * Eventually, we recognized that that had more theoretical purity than
  * actual usefulness, and so now the transformation doesn't involve any
  * notion of reaching a canonical form.
  *
  * NOTE: we assume the input has already been through eval_const_expressions
  * and therefore possesses AND/OR flatness.  Formerly this function included
  * its own flattening logic, but that requires a useless extra pass over the
  * tree.
  *
  * Returns the modified qualification.
  */

忽略NULL以及OR中的False/AND中的TRUE
Where条件语句中的NULL/FALSE/TRUE,如能忽略,忽略之.如:NULL OR FALSE OR dwbh = '1001',则忽略NULL/ FALSE

testdb=# explain verbose select * from t_dwxx where NULL OR FALSE OR dwbh = '1001' ;
                           QUERY PLAN                           
----------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on public.t_dwxx  (cost=0.00..12.00 rows=1 width=474)
   Output: dwmc, dwbh, dwdz
   Filter: ((t_dwxx.dwbh)::text = '1001'::text)
(3 rows)

拉平谓词
SQL语句中的X1 OR/AND (X2 OR/AND X3),拉平简化为OR/AND(X1,X2,X3)
X1 OR/AND (X2 OR/AND X3),在查询树中为树状结构,第一层节点是BoolExpr,该Node中的args链表有2个元素,args->1=X1,args->2=BoolExpr,args->2->1=X2,args->2->2=X3,组成树状结构.简化后args->1/2/3=X1/X2/X3,所有条件处于同一个层次上,并不是树状结构.

testdb=# explain select * from t_dwxx where dwbh = '1001' OR (dwbh = '1002' OR dwbh = '1003');
                                                 QUERY PLAN                                                  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on t_dwxx  (cost=0.00..12.80 rows=3 width=474)
   Filter: (((dwbh)::text = '1001'::text) OR ((dwbh)::text = '1002'::text) OR ((dwbh)::text = '1003'::text))
(2 rows)

清除重复ORs
清除重复ORs的数学基础是布尔(逻辑)代数:
(X1 AND X2) OR (X1 AND X3) 应用分配律可以改写为 X1 AND (X2 OR X3),这样改写的目的是把X1抽取出来,为后续下推谓词X1作准备.
如(dwbh = '1001' AND dwbh = '1002') OR (dwbh = '1001' AND dwbh = '1003')条件,会改写为dwbh = '1001' AND (dwbh = '1002' OR dwbh = '1003')

testdb=# explain verbose select * from t_dwxx where (dwbh = '1001' AND dwbh = '1002')  OR (dwbh = '1001' AND dwbh = '1003');
                                                             QUERY PLAN                                                      
        
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------
 Seq Scan on public.t_dwxx  (cost=0.00..12.80 rows=1 width=474)
   Output: dwmc, dwbh, dwdz
   Filter: (((t_dwxx.dwbh)::text = '1001'::text) AND (((t_dwxx.dwbh)::text = '1002'::text) OR ((t_dwxx.dwbh)::text = '1003'::
text)))

五、小结

1、优化的数学基础:布尔代数以及相关的定律;
2、表达式规范化的过程:表达式扁平化处理以及公共谓词提取等的处理逻辑。
