* prepunion.c
* Routines to plan set-operation queries. The filename is a leftover
* from a time when only UNIONs were implemented.
*
* There are two code paths in the planner for set-operation queries.
* If a subquery consists entirely of simple UNION ALL operations, it
* is converted into an "append relation". Otherwise, it is handled
* by the general code in this module (plan_set_operations and its
* subroutines). There is some support code here for the append-relation
* case, but most of the heavy lifting for that is done elsewhere,
* notably in prepjointree.c and allpaths.c.
*
* There is also some code here to support planning of queries that use
* inheritance (SELECT FROM foo*). Inheritance trees are converted into
* append relations, and thenceforth share code with the UNION ALL case.

Make the upper part of the planner work by generating and comparing Paths. I've been saying we needed to do this for more than five years, and here it finally is. This patch removes the ever-growing tangle of spaghetti logic that grouping_planner() used to use to try to identify the best plan for post-scan/join query steps. Now, there is (nearly) independent consideration of each execution step, and entirely separate construction of Paths to represent each of the possible ways to do that step. We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

Now, there is (nearly) independent consideration of each execution step, and entirely separate construction of Paths to represent each of the possible ways to do that step. We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

Fix PARAM_EXEC assignment mechanism to be safe in the presence of WITH. The planner previously assumed that parameter Vars having the same absolute query level, varno, and varattno could safely be assigned the same runtime PARAM_EXEC slot, even though they might be different Vars appearing in different subqueries. This was (probably) safe before the introduction of CTEs, but the lazy-evalution mechanism used for CTEs means that a CTE can be executed during execution of some other subquery, causing the lifespan of Params at the same syntactic nesting level as the CTE to overlap with use of the same slots inside the CTE. In 9.1 we created additional hazards by using the same parameter-assignment technology for nestloop inner scan parameters, but it was broken before that, as illustrated by the added regression test. To fix, restructure the planner's management of PlannerParamItems so that items having different semantic lifespans are kept rigorously separated. This will probably result in complex queries using more runtime PARAM_EXEC slots than before, but the slots are cheap enough that this hardly matters. Also, stop generating PlannerParamItems containing Params for subquery outputs: all we really need to do is reserve the PARAM_EXEC slot number, and that now only takes incrementing a counter. The planning code is simpler and probably faster than before, as well as being more correct. Per report from Vik Reykja. These changes will mostly also need to be made in the back branches, but I'm going to hold off on that until after 9.2.0 wraps.

Refactor planning of projection steps that don't need a Result plan node. The original upper-planner-pathification design (commit 3fc6e2d7f5b652b4) assumed that we could always determine during Path formation whether or not we would need a Result plan node to perform projection of a targetlist. That turns out not to work very well, though, because createplan.c still has some responsibilities for choosing the specific target list associated with sorting/grouping nodes (in particular it might choose to add resjunk columns for sorting). We might not ever refactor that --- doing so would push more work into Path formation, which isn't attractive --- and we certainly won't do so for 9.6. So, while create_projection_path and apply_projection_to_path can tell for sure what will happen if the subpath is projection-capable, they can't tell for sure when it isn't. This is at least a latent bug in apply_projection_to_path, which might think it can apply a target to a non-projecting node when the node will end up computing something different. Also, I'd tied the creation of a ProjectionPath node to whether or not a Result is needed, but it turns out that we sometimes need a ProjectionPath node anyway to avoid modifying a possibly-shared subpath node. Callers had to use create_projection_path for such cases, and we added code to them that knew about the potential omission of a Result node and attempted to adjust the cost estimates for that. That was uncertainly correct and definitely ugly/unmaintainable. To fix, have create_projection_path explicitly check whether a Result is needed and adjust its cost estimate accordingly, though it creates a ProjectionPath in either case. apply_projection_to_path is now mostly just an optimized version that can avoid creating an extra Path node when the input is known to not be shared with any other live path. (There is one case that create_projection_path doesn't handle, which is pushing parallel-safe expressions below a Gather node. We could make it do that by duplicating the GatherPath, but there seems no need as yet.) create_projection_plan still has to recheck the tlist-match condition, which means that if the matching situation does get changed by createplan.c then we'll have made a slightly incorrect cost estimate. But there seems no help for that in the near term, and I doubt it occurs often enough, let alone would change planning decisions often enough, to be worth stressing about. I added a "dummypp" field to ProjectionPath to track whether create_projection_path thinks a Result is needed. This is not really necessary as-committed because create_projection_plan doesn't look at the flag; but it seems like a good idea to remember what we thought when forming the cost estimate, if only for debugging purposes. In passing, get rid of the target_parallel parameter added to apply_projection_to_path by commit 54f5c5150. I don't think that's a good idea because it involves callers in what should be an internal decision, and opens us up to missing optimization opportunities if callers think they don't need to provide a valid flag, as most don't. For the moment, this just costs us an extra has_parallel_hazard call when planning a Gather. If that starts to look expensive, I think a better solution would be to teach PathTarget to carry/cache knowledge of parallel-safety of its contents.

Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP. This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

Refactor planning of projection steps that don't need a Result plan node. The original upper-planner-pathification design (commit 3fc6e2d7f5b652b4) assumed that we could always determine during Path formation whether or not we would need a Result plan node to perform projection of a targetlist. That turns out not to work very well, though, because createplan.c still has some responsibilities for choosing the specific target list associated with sorting/grouping nodes (in particular it might choose to add resjunk columns for sorting). We might not ever refactor that --- doing so would push more work into Path formation, which isn't attractive --- and we certainly won't do so for 9.6. So, while create_projection_path and apply_projection_to_path can tell for sure what will happen if the subpath is projection-capable, they can't tell for sure when it isn't. This is at least a latent bug in apply_projection_to_path, which might think it can apply a target to a non-projecting node when the node will end up computing something different. Also, I'd tied the creation of a ProjectionPath node to whether or not a Result is needed, but it turns out that we sometimes need a ProjectionPath node anyway to avoid modifying a possibly-shared subpath node. Callers had to use create_projection_path for such cases, and we added code to them that knew about the potential omission of a Result node and attempted to adjust the cost estimates for that. That was uncertainly correct and definitely ugly/unmaintainable. To fix, have create_projection_path explicitly check whether a Result is needed and adjust its cost estimate accordingly, though it creates a ProjectionPath in either case. apply_projection_to_path is now mostly just an optimized version that can avoid creating an extra Path node when the input is known to not be shared with any other live path. (There is one case that create_projection_path doesn't handle, which is pushing parallel-safe expressions below a Gather node. We could make it do that by duplicating the GatherPath, but there seems no need as yet.) create_projection_plan still has to recheck the tlist-match condition, which means that if the matching situation does get changed by createplan.c then we'll have made a slightly incorrect cost estimate. But there seems no help for that in the near term, and I doubt it occurs often enough, let alone would change planning decisions often enough, to be worth stressing about. I added a "dummypp" field to ProjectionPath to track whether create_projection_path thinks a Result is needed. This is not really necessary as-committed because create_projection_plan doesn't look at the flag; but it seems like a good idea to remember what we thought when forming the cost estimate, if only for debugging purposes. In passing, get rid of the target_parallel parameter added to apply_projection_to_path by commit 54f5c5150. I don't think that's a good idea because it involves callers in what should be an internal decision, and opens us up to missing optimization opportunities if callers think they don't need to provide a valid flag, as most don't. For the moment, this just costs us an extra has_parallel_hazard call when planning a Gather. If that starts to look expensive, I think a better solution would be to teach PathTarget to carry/cache knowledge of parallel-safety of its contents.

This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

Make the upper part of the planner work by generating and comparing Paths. I've been saying we needed to do this for more than five years, and here it finally is. This patch removes the ever-growing tangle of spaghetti logic that grouping_planner() used to use to try to identify the best plan for post-scan/join query steps. Now, there is (nearly) independent consideration of each execution step, and entirely separate construction of Paths to represent each of the possible ways to do that step. We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here.

We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

Make the upper part of the planner work by generating and comparing Paths. I've been saying we needed to do this for more than five years, and here it finally is. This patch removes the ever-growing tangle of spaghetti logic that grouping_planner() used to use to try to identify the best plan for post-scan/join query steps. Now, there is (nearly) independent consideration of each execution step, and entirely separate construction of Paths to represent each of the possible ways to do that step. We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.) There is a great deal left to do here. This patch unblocks a lot of planner work that was basically impractical in the old code structure, such as allowing FDWs to implement remote aggregation, or rewriting plan_set_operations() to allow consideration of multiple implementation orders for set operations. (The latter will likely require a full rewrite of plan_set_operations(); what I've done here is only to fix it to return Paths not Plans.) I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

I have also left unfinished some localized refactoring in createplan.c and planner.c, because it was not necessary to get this patch to a working state.

Make the upper part of the planner work by generating and comparing Paths. I've been saying we needed to do this for more than five years, and here it finally is. This patch removes the ever-growing tangle of spaghetti logic that grouping_planner() used to use to try to identify the best plan for post-scan/join query steps. Now, there is (nearly) independent consideration of each execution step, and entirely separate construction of Paths to represent each of the possible ways to do that step. We choose the best Path or set of Paths using the same add_path() logic that's been used inside query_planner() for years. In addition, this patch removes the old restriction that subquery_planner() could return only a single Plan. It now returns a RelOptInfo containing a set of Paths, just as query_planner() does, and the parent query level can use each of those Paths as the basis of a SubqueryScanPath at its level. This allows finding some optimizations that we missed before, wherein a subquery was capable of returning presorted data and thereby avoiding a sort in the parent level, making the overall cost cheaper even though delivering sorted output was not the cheapest plan for the subquery in isolation. (A couple of regression test outputs change in consequence of that. However, there is very little change in visible planner behavior overall, because the point of this patch is not to get immediate planning benefits but to create the infrastructure for future improvements.)

Allow foreign tables to participate in inheritance. Foreign tables can now be inheritance children, or parents. Much of the system was already ready for this, but we had to fix a few things of course, mostly in the area of planner and executor handling of row locks. As side effects of this, allow foreign tables to have NOT VALID CHECK constraints (and hence to accept ALTER ... VALIDATE CONSTRAINT), and to accept ALTER SET STORAGE and ALTER SET WITH/WITHOUT OIDS. Continuing to disallow these things would've required bizarre and inconsistent special cases in inheritance behavior.

Improve RLS planning by marking individual quals with security levels. In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view. Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the rest of the query. To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order, except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node, and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation (i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go ahead of other quals at the scan node. This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch. Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise. This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies. Patch by me, reviewed by Stephen Frost and Dean Rasheed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8185.1477432701@sss.pgh.pa.us

Improve RLS planning by marking individual quals with security levels. In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view. Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the rest of the query. To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order, except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node, and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation (i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go ahead of other quals at the scan node. This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch. Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise. This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies. Patch by me, reviewed by Stephen Frost and Dean Rasheed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8185.1477432701@sss.pgh.pa.us

Fix subquery pullup to wrap a PlaceHolderVar around the entire RowExpr that's generated for a whole-row Var referencing the subquery, when the subquery is in the nullable side of an outer join. The previous coding instead put PlaceHolderVars around the elements of the RowExpr. The effect was that when the outer join made the subquery outputs go to null, the whole-row Var produced ROW(NULL,NULL,...) rather than just NULL. There are arguments afoot about whether those things ought to be semantically indistinguishable, but for the moment they are not entirely so, and the planner needs to take care that its machinations preserve the difference. Per bug #5025. Making this feasible required refactoring ResolveNew() to allow more caller control over what is substituted for a Var. I chose to make ResolveNew() a wrapper around a new general-purpose function replace_rte_variables(). I also fixed the ancient bogosity that ResolveNew might fail to set a query's hasSubLinks field after inserting a SubLink in it. Although all current callers make sure that happens anyway, we've had bugs of that sort before, and it seemed like a good time to install a proper solution. Back-patch to 8.4. The problem can be demonstrated clear back to 8.0, but the fix would be too invasive in earlier branches; not to mention that people may be depending on the subtly-incorrect behavior. The 8.4 series is new enough that fixing this probably won't cause complaints, but it might in older branches. Also, 8.4 shows the incorrect behavior in more cases than older branches do, because it is able to flatten subqueries in more cases.

Improve RLS planning by marking individual quals with security levels. In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view. Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the rest of the query. To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order, except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node, and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation (i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go ahead of other quals at the scan node. This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch. Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise. This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies. Patch by me, reviewed by Stephen Frost and Dean Rasheed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8185.1477432701@sss.pgh.pa.us

Avoid out-of-memory in a hash join with many duplicate inner keys. The executor is capable of splitting buckets during a hash join if too much memory is being used by a small number of buckets. However, this only helps if a bucket's population is actually divisible; if all the hash keys are alike, the tuples still end up in the same new bucket. This can result in an OOM failure if there are enough inner keys with identical hash values. The planner's cost estimates will bias it against choosing a hash join in such situations, but not by so much that it will never do so. To mitigate the OOM hazard, explicitly estimate the hash bucket space needed by just the inner side's most common value, and if that would exceed work_mem then add disable_cost to the hash cost estimate. This approach doesn't account for the possibility that two or more common values would share the same hash value. On the other hand, work_mem is normally a fairly conservative bound, so that eating two or more times that much space is probably not going to kill us. If we have no stats about the inner side, ignore this consideration. There was some discussion of making a conservative assumption, but that would effectively result in disabling hash join whenever we lack stats, which seems like an overreaction given how seldom the problem manifests in the field. Per a complaint from David Hinkle. Although this could be viewed as a bug fix, the lack of similar complaints weighs against back- patching; indeed we waited for v11 because it seemed already rather late in the v10 cycle to be making plan choice changes like this one.

Fix some more problems with nested append relations. As of commit a87c72915 (which later got backpatched as far as 9.1), we're explicitly supporting the notion that append relations can be nested; this can occur when UNION ALL constructs are nested, or when a UNION ALL contains a table with inheritance children. Bug #11457 from Nelson Page, as well as an earlier report from Elvis Pranskevichus, showed that there were still nasty bugs associated with such cases: in particular the EquivalenceClass mechanism could try to generate "join" clauses connecting an appendrel child to some grandparent appendrel, which would result in assertion failures or bogus plans. Upon investigation I concluded that all current callers of find_childrel_appendrelinfo() need to be fixed to explicitly consider multiple levels of parent appendrels. The most complex fix was in processing of "broken" EquivalenceClasses, which are ECs for which we have been unable to generate all the derived equality clauses we would like to because of missing cross-type equality operators in the underlying btree operator family. That code path is more or less entirely untested by the regression tests to date, because no standard opfamilies have such holes in them. So I wrote a new regression test script to try to exercise it a bit, which turned out to be quite a worthwhile activity as it exposed existing bugs in all supported branches. The present patch is essentially the same as far back as 9.2, which is where parameterized paths were introduced. In 9.0 and 9.1, we only need to back-patch a small fragment of commit 5b7b5518d, which fixes failure to propagate out the original WHERE clauses when a broken EC contains constant members. (The regression test case results show that these older branches are noticeably stupider than 9.2+ in terms of the quality of the plans generated; but we don't really care about plan quality in such cases, only that the plan not be outright wrong. A more invasive fix in the older branches would not be a good idea anyway from a plan-stability standpoint.)
