Bug Report

Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

1. Minimal reproduce step (Required)

mysql --connect-timeout 15 -u '3sDg3oSF1k7eu15.root' -h [gateway01.ap-northeast-1.prod.aws.tidbcloud.com](http://gateway01.ap-northeast-1.prod.aws.tidbcloud.com/) -P 4000 -D test -p

You can use your own tidb-cloud dev_tier.

use gharchive_dev;
create view v1 as select * from github_events;
explain select /*+ use_index(github_events, index_github_events_on_actor_id) */ * from v1 where id = 1;

2. What did you expect to see? (Required)

The plan should use index index_github_events_on_actor_id.

3. What did you see instead (Required)

mysql> explain select /*+ use_index(github_events, index_github_events_on_actor_id) */ * from v1 where id = 1;

We can impl the same grammar mentioned in this chapter. It's a reasonable solution that is not hard to impl. But we need to extend our parser to support the grammar.

The current

// HintTable is table in the hint. It may have query block info.
type HintTable struct {
        DBName        model.CIStr
        TableName     model.CIStr
        QBName        model.CIStr
        PartitionList []model.CIStr
}

should become

// HintTable is table in the hint. It may have query block info.
type HintTable struct {
        DBName        model.CIStr
        TableName     model.CIStr
        QBNameList   []model.CIStr
        PartitionList []model.CIStr
}

Not only the index hint, we will fail if we want to use hint to choose the physical algorithm of join/agg.
Thus, modify the title of the issue.
