你的JoinHint为什么不生效

本文分享自华为云社区《你的JoinHint为什么不生效【绽放吧！GaussDB(DWS)云原生数仓】》，作者：你是猴子请来的救兵吗 。

引言

提起数据库的Hint，几乎每个DBA都知道这一强大功能。在GaussDB(DWS)中，Hint可以被用来干预SQL的执行计划，但是在日常工作中，很多开发人员对Hint的缺乏深入了解，经常遇到Hint失效的情况却又束手无策。
本次针对JoinHint从案例着手深入解析JoinHint不生效的原因，以便读者能“知其所以然”。（本文不讨论Hint的基础语法问题）。

问题案例

内核版本 GaussDB 8.1.3

问题描述 两表关联查询，使用hashjoin hint干预join方式，但hint不生效

问题用例

CREATE TABLE workitem ( language character varying(10), userid character varying(240), opiontype character varying(240), processinstid character varying(240), workitemid character varying(240), type_name character varying(240), type_code character varying(240), createtime timestamp without time zone, endtime timestamp without time zone, notrejecttotal numeric, dws_created_time timestamp without time zone ) WITH (orientation=column, compression=low, colversion=2.0, enable_delta=false) DISTRIBUTE BY HASH(workitemid); CREATE TABLE workday ( mm timestamp with time zone, rn numeric ) WITH (orientation=column, compression=low, colversion=2.0, enable_delta=false) DISTRIBUTE BY HASH(mm); explain SELECT /*+ hashjoin(c d) */ c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code,count(1) num FROM workitem c INNER JOIN workday d ON c.createtime = d.mm WHERE c.createtime >= '2023-09-01' AND c.endtime < '2023-10-01' GROUP BY c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code; WARNING: unused hint: HashJoin(c d) QUERY PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- id | operation | E-rows | E-memory | E-width | E-costs ----+------------------------------------------------------+--------+----------+---------+--------- 1 | -> Row Adapter | 2 | | 1502 | 33.12 2 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 2 | | 1502 | 33.12 3 | -> Vector Streaming (type: GATHER) | 4 | | 1502 | 33.12 4 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 4 | 16MB | 1502 | 27.12 5 | -> Vector Nest Loop (6,8) | 5 | 1MB | 1494 | 27.08 6 | -> Vector Streaming(type: BROADCAST) | 14 | 2MB | 8 | 13.68 7 | -> CStore Scan on workday d | 7 | 1MB | 8 | 13.05 8 | -> Vector Materialize | 5 | 16MB | 1502 | 13.09 9 | -> CStore Scan on workitem c | 5 | 1MB | 1502 | 13.08 RunTime Analyze Information ------------------------------------------- "public.workitem" runtime: 25.794ms "public.workday" runtime: 18.098ms Predicate Information (identified by plan id) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 --Vector Nest Loop (6,8) Join Filter: (c.createtime = d.mm) 7 --CStore Scan on workday d Filter: (mm >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) Pushdown Predicate Filter: (mm >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) 9 --CStore Scan on workitem c Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) Pushdown Predicate Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) ====== Query Summary ===== ------------------------------- System available mem: 4710400KB Query Max mem: 4710400KB Query estimated mem: 5271KB (33 rows)

问题定位

尝试关闭nestloop路径，来验证是否可以生成hash计划

set enable_nestloop = off;

set enable_mergejoin = off;

set enable_hashjoin = on;

WARNING: unused hint: HashJoin(c d) QUERY PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- id | operation | E-rows | E-memory | E-width | E-costs ----+------------------------------------------------------+--------+----------+---------+--------- 1 | -> Row Adapter | 2 | | 1502 | 33.12 2 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 2 | | 1502 | 33.12 3 | -> Vector Streaming (type: GATHER) | 4 | | 1502 | 33.12 4 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 4 | 16MB | 1502 | 27.12 5 | -> Vector Nest Loop (6,8) | 5 | 1MB | 1494 | 27.08 6 | -> Vector Streaming(type: BROADCAST) | 14 | 2MB | 8 | 13.68 7 | -> CStore Scan on workday d | 7 | 1MB | 8 | 13.05 8 | -> Vector Materialize | 5 | 16MB | 1502 | 13.09 9 | -> CStore Scan on workitem c | 5 | 1MB | 1502 | 13.08 Predicate Information (identified by plan id) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 --Vector Nest Loop (6,8) Join Filter: (c.createtime = d.mm) 7 --CStore Scan on workday d Filter: (mm >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) Pushdown Predicate Filter: (mm >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) 9 --CStore Scan on workitem c Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) Pushdown Predicate Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) ====== Query Summary ===== ------------------------------- System available mem: 4710400KB Query Max mem: 4710400KB Query estimated mem: 5271KB (28 rows)

关闭nestloop路径后，仍然生成nestloop计划，且E-costs代价中未添加惩罚代价，说明该场景语句本身不支持hashjoin。

检查关联表达式(c.createtime = d.mm)

，确认是否支持hashjoin。

• 关联表达式为字段关联，不存在函数嵌套
• 关联表达式两边数据类型为timestamp without time zone和timestamp with time zone，通过系统表pg_operator确认是否支持hashjoin。

postgres=# select * from pg_operator where oprname = '=' and oprleft = 'timestamp'::regtype and oprright = 'timestamptz'::regtype; -[ RECORD 1 ]+------------------------- oprname | = oprnamespace | 11 oprowner | 10 oprkind | b oprcanmerge | t oprcanhash | f oprleft | 1114 oprright | 1184 oprresult | 16 oprcom | 2542 oprnegate | 2539 oprcode | timestamp_eq_timestamptz oprrest | eqsel oprjoin | eqjoinsel

• 通过结果确认oprcanhash为false，代表该操作符不支持hash连接；原因是，左边数据不带时区，右边数据带，在比较时要先处理时区问题，不能直接拿存储值进行判断。

改善办法

通过系统表确认timestamp类型的等值关联和timestamptz的等值关联均支持hash连接。

postgres=# select * from pg_operator where oprname = '=' and oprleft = oprright and oprleft in('timestamp'::regtype,'timestamptz'::regtype); -[ RECORD 1 ]+--------------- oprname | = oprnamespace | 11 oprowner | 10 oprkind | b oprcanmerge | t oprcanhash | t oprleft | 1184 oprright | 1184 oprresult | 16 oprcom | 1320 oprnegate | 1321 oprcode | timestamptz_eq oprrest | eqsel oprjoin | eqjoinsel -[ RECORD 2 ]+--------------- oprname | = oprnamespace | 11 oprowner | 10 oprkind | b oprcanmerge | t oprcanhash | t oprleft | 1114 oprright | 1114 oprresult | 16 oprcom | 2060 oprnegate | 2061 oprcode | timestamp_eq oprrest | eqsel oprjoin | eqjoinsel

在关联条件上添加类型转换，保证两边类型一致，即(c.createtime：：timestamptz = d.mm)或(c.createtime = d.mm：：timestamp)。

知识小结

实际使用过程中导致hint生效的原因很多，这里总结排查hashjoin hint步骤以供参考:

• 检查hint中的表名是否正确、是否存在重名、是否在当前层可见，此类场景通常在explain中会给出提示，自行排查即可。
• 判断关联hint中的表名是否被提升导致表名不存在，此类场景通常在explain中会给出提示

postgres=# explain SELECT /*+ hashjoin(c d) */ c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code,count(1) num FROM workitem c INNER JOIN (select * from workday where mm >= '2023-09-01') d ON c.createtime = d.mm::timestamp WHERE c.createtime >= '2023-09-01' AND c.endtime < '2023-10-01' GROUP BY c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code; WARNING: Error hint: HashJoin(c d), relation name "d" is not found.

针对此种情况，8.2.0及以上版本可以通过添加no merge hint来禁用子查询提升从而规避hint失效问题。

通过join路径参数验证目标路径是否可生效。

--如通过关闭其他路径参数来验证某一路径是否可达 set enable_nestloop = off; set enable_mergejoin = off; set enable_hashjoin = on;

检查关联条件中是否存在volatile函数。

postgres=# create or replace function gettimediff(timestamp) returns interval language sql as 'select $1-timeofday()::timestamp' volatile; CREATE FUNCTION postgres=# explain SELECT /*+ hashjoin(c d) */ c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code,count(1) num FROM workitem c INNER JOIN workday d ON gettimediff(c.createtime) = gettimediff(d.mm::timestamp) WHERE c.createtime >= '2023-09-01' AND c.endtime < '2023-10-01' GROUP BY c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code; WARNING: unused hint: HashJoin(c d) QUERY PLAN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- id | operation | E-rows | E-width | E-costs ----+-------------------------------------------------------------+--------+---------+--------- 1 | -> HashAggregate | 5 | 1502 | 3.10 2 | -> Nested Loop (3,4) | 5 | 1494 | 3.00 3 | -> Data Node Scan on workitem "_REMOTE_TABLE_QUERY_" | 5 | 1502 | 0.00 4 | -> Data Node Scan on workday "_REMOTE_TABLE_QUERY_" | 20 | 8 | 0.00 Predicate Information (identified by plan id) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 --Nested Loop (3,4) Join Filter: ((c.createtime - (timeofday())::timestamp without time zone) = ((d.mm)::timestamp without time zone - (timeofday())::timestamp without time zone)) (11 rows)

检查关联条件中两表字段是否在等号两侧，若不是则进行调整。

postgres=# explain SELECT /*+ hashjoin(c d) */ c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code,count(1) num FROM workitem c INNER JOIN workday d ON ifnull(c.createtime,d.mm) = now() WHERE c.createtime >= '2023-09-01' AND c.endtime < '2023-10-01' GROUP BY c.userid,c.type_name,c.type_code; WARNING: unused hint: HashJoin(c d) QUERY PLAN ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- id | operation | E-rows | E-memory | E-width | E-costs ----+------------------------------------------------------+--------+----------+---------+--------- 1 | -> Row Adapter | 1 | | 1502 | 35.37 2 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 1 | | 1502 | 35.37 3 | -> Vector Streaming (type: GATHER) | 2 | | 1502 | 35.37 4 | -> Vector Sonic Hash Aggregate | 2 | 16MB | 1502 | 29.37 5 | -> Vector Nest Loop (6,8) | 2 | 1MB | 1494 | 29.35 6 | -> Vector Streaming(type: BROADCAST) | 40 | 2MB | 8 | 15.06 7 | -> CStore Scan on workday d | 20 | 1MB | 8 | 13.01 8 | -> Vector Materialize | 5 | 16MB | 1502 | 13.09 9 | -> CStore Scan on workitem c | 5 | 1MB | 1502 | 13.08 Predicate Information (identified by plan id) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 --Vector Nest Loop (6,8) Join Filter: (COALESCE((c.createtime)::timestamp with time zone, d.mm) = now()) 9 --CStore Scan on workitem c Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) Pushdown Predicate Filter: ((createtime >= '2023-09-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone) AND (endtime < '2023-10-01 00:00:00'::timestamp without time zone)) ====== Query Summary ===== ------------------------------- System available mem: 4710400KB Query Max mem: 4710400KB Query estimated mem: 5275KB (25 rows)

检查关联关系两侧的数据类型，并通过pg_operator.oprcanhash确认是否支持hash连接，若不支持则需改写为支持的操作符。

检查查询语句中，from表数量是否超出from_collapse_limit，以及join表数量是否超出join_collapse_limit。超出时存在一定概率使hint无法生效。

比默认值小的数值将降低规划时间，但是可能生成差的执行计划。

postgres=# show from_collapse_limit; from_collapse_limit --------------------- 8 (1 row) postgres=# show join_collapse_limit; join_collapse_limit --------------------- 8 (1 row)

检查查询语句中，from表数量是否超出geqo_threshold（geqo开启的前提下），如果超出会使用基因查询优化来生成计划，存在很大概率使hint无法生效。

对于简单的查询，通常用详尽搜索方法，当涉及多个表的查询的时候，用GEQO可以更好的管理查询。

postgres=# show geqo_threshold; geqo_threshold ---------------- 12 (1 row)
