不论创建何种类型的分区，如果表中存在主键或唯一索引时，分区列必须是唯一索引的一个组成部分
mysql> create table t1(

ERROR 1503 (HY000): A PRIMARY KEY must include all columns in the table's partitioning function

mysql> create table t1(

--LIST分区
MariaDB [test]> CREATE TABLE employees5 (

-> PARTITION pCentral VALUES IN (7,8,15,16)
-> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (5.13 sec)

--COLUMN分区
字段分区是范围分区和列表分区的一种变体，字段分区可以使用多个字段作为分区键。
范围字段分区和列表字段分区支持非整数字段，支持的数据类型如下：

所有整数类型：TINYINT, SMALLINT, MEDIUMINT, INT，BIGINT。
DATE，DATETIME。
CHAR, VARCHAR, BINARY,VARBINARY。

MariaDB [test]> CREATE TABLE rc2 (
-> a INT,
-> b INT
-> )
-> PARTITION BY RANGE COLUMNS(a,b) (
-> PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (0,10),
-> PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN (10,20),

-> );

-> partition p2 values less than (15,30,'sss'),
-> partition p3 values less than (MAXVALUE,MAXVALUE,MAXVALUE)
-> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.32 sec)

--哈希分区
哈希分区主要确保分区表中的数据均匀分布在各个分区之中。
mysql> create table t_hash(a int,b datetime)engine=innodb
-> partition by hash(year(b))
-> partitions 4;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (7.81 sec)

MariaDB [test]> CREATE TABLE employees7 (
-> id INT NOT NULL,
-> fname VARCHAR(30),
-> lname VARCHAR(30),
-> hired DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT '1970-01-01',
-> separated DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT '9999-12-31',
-> job_code INT,
-> store_id INT
-> )
-> PARTITION BY HASH(store_id)
-> PARTITIONS 4;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.22 sec)

MySQL数据库还支持一种称为LINEAR HASH的分区，它使用一个更加复杂的算法来确定新行插入到已经分区的表中的位置
LINEAR HASH分区的优点在于增加、删除、合并和拆分分区将变得更加快捷，这有利于处理含有大量数据的表。LINEAR HASH分区的缺点在于，
与使用HASH分区得到的数据分布相比，各个分区间数据的分布可能不大均衡
mysql> create table t_linear_hash(
-> a int,
-> b datetime
-> )engine=innodb
-> partition by linear hash(year(b))
-> partitions 4;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.23 sec)

--KEY分区
KEY分区类似哈希分区，除了哈希分区使用用户自定义的表达式。分区键列必须包含部分或所有的表的主键。
MariaDB [test]> CREATE TABLE k1 (
-> id INT NOT NULL,
-> name VARCHAR(20),
-> UNIQUE KEY (id)
-> )
-> PARTITION BY KEY()
-> PARTITIONS 2;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.11 sec)

--复合分区
MySQL数据库允许在RANGE和LIST的分区上再进行HASH或KEY的子分区
MariaDB [test]> CREATE TABLE ts (id INT, purchased DATE)
-> PARTITION BY RANGE( YEAR(purchased) )
-> SUBPARTITION BY HASH( TO_DAYS(purchased) ) (
-> PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (1990) (
