79 * In some cases, although we cannot convert a clause into EquivalenceClass
80 * knowledge, we can still modify it to a more useful form than the original.
81 * Then, *p_restrictinfo will be replaced by a new RestrictInfo, which is what
82 * the caller should use for further processing.
84 * If below_outer_join is true, then the clause was found below the nullable
85 * side of an outer join, so its sides might validly be both NULL rather than
86 * strictly equal. We can still deduce equalities in such cases, but we take
87 * care to mark an EquivalenceClass if it came from any such clauses. Also,
88 * we have to check that both sides are either pseudo-constants or strict
89 * functions of Vars, else they might not both go to NULL above the outer
90 * join. (This is the main reason why we need a failure return. It's more
91 * convenient to check this case here than at the call sites...)
93 * We also reject proposed equivalence clauses if they contain leaky functions
94 * and have security_level above zero. The EC evaluation rules require us to
95 * apply certain tests at certain joining levels, and we can't tolerate
96 * delaying any test on security_level grounds. By rejecting candidate clauses
97 * that might require security delays, we ensure it's safe to apply an EC
98 * clause as soon as it's supposed to be applied.
100 * On success return, we have also initialized the clause's left_ec/right_ec

462 * canonicalize_ec_expression
464 * This function ensures that the expression exposes the expected type and
465 * collation, so that it will be equal() to other equivalence-class expressions
466 * that it ought to be equal() to.
468 * The rule for datatypes is that the exposed type should match what it would
469 * be for an input to an operator of the EC's opfamilies; which is usually
470 * the declared input type of the operator, but in the case of polymorphic
471 * operators no relabeling is wanted (compare the behavior of parse_coerce.c).
472 * Expressions coming in from quals will generally have the right type
473 * already, but expressions coming from indexkeys may not (because they are
474 * represented without any explicit relabel in pg_index), and the same problem
475 * occurs for sort expressions (because the parser is likewise cavalier about
476 * putting relabels on them). Such cases will be binary-compatible with the
477 * real operators, so adding a RelabelType is sufficient.
479 * Also, the expression's exposed collation must match the EC's collation.
480 * This is important because in comparisons like "foo < bar COLLATE baz",
481 * only one of the expressions has the correct exposed collation as we receive
482 * it from the parser. Forcing both of them to have it ensures that all
483 * variant spellings of such a construct behave the same. Again, we can
484 * stick on a RelabelType to force the right exposed collation. (It might
485 * work to not label the collation at all in EC members, but this is risky
486 * since some parts of the system expect exprCollation() to deliver the
487 * right answer for a sort key.)

587 * expr is the expression, and nullable_relids is the set of base relids
588 * that are potentially nullable below it. We actually only care about
589 * the set of such relids that are used in the expression; but for caller
590 * convenience, we perform that intersection step here. The caller need
591 * only be sure that nullable_relids doesn't omit any nullable rels that
592 * might appear in the expr.
594 * sortref is the SortGroupRef of the originating SortGroupClause, if any,
595 * or zero if not. (It should never be zero if the expression is volatile!)
597 * If rel is not NULL, it identifies a specific relation we're considering
598 * a path for, and indicates that child EC members for that relation can be
599 * considered. Otherwise child members are ignored. (Note: since child EC
600 * members aren't guaranteed unique, a non-NULL value means that there could
601 * be more than one EC that matches the expression; if so it's order-dependent
602 * which one you get. This is annoying but it only happens in corner cases,
603 * so for now we live with just reporting the first match. See also
604 * generate_implied_equalities_for_column and match_pathkeys_to_index.)
606 * If create_it is true, we'll build a new EquivalenceClass when there is no
607 * match. If create_it is false, we just return NULL when no match.
609 * This can be used safely both before and after EquivalenceClass merging;
610 * since it never causes merging it does not invalidate any existing ECs
611 * or PathKeys. However, ECs added after path generation has begun are
612 * of limited usefulness, so usually it's best to create them beforehand.

753 * generate_base_implied_equalities
754 * Generate any restriction clauses that we can deduce from equivalence
757 * When an EC contains pseudoconstants, our strategy is to generate
758 * "member = const1" clauses where const1 is the first constant member, for
759 * every other member (including other constants). If we are able to do this
760 * then we don't need any "var = var" comparisons because we've successfully
761 * constrained all the vars at their points of creation. If we fail to
762 * generate any of these clauses due to lack of cross-type operators, we fall
763 * back to the "ec_broken" strategy described below. (XXX if there are
764 * multiple constants of different types, it's possible that we might succeed
765 * in forming all the required clauses if we started from a different const
766 * member; but this seems a sufficiently hokey corner case to not be worth
767 * spending lots of cycles on.)
769 * For ECs that contain no pseudoconstants, we generate derived clauses
770 * "member1 = member2" for each pair of members belonging to the same base
771 * relation (actually, if there are more than two for the same base relation,
772 * we only need enough clauses to link each to each other). This provides
773 * the base case for the recursion: each row emitted by a base relation scan
774 * will constrain all computable members of the EC to be equal. As each
775 * join path is formed, we'll add additional derived clauses on-the-fly
776 * to maintain this invariant (see generate_join_implied_equalities).
778 * If the opfamilies used by the EC do not provide complete sets of cross-type
779 * equality operators, it is possible that we will fail to generate a clause
780 * that must be generated to maintain the invariant. (An example: given
781 * "WHERE a.x = b.y AND b.y = a.z", the scheme breaks down if we cannot
782 * generate "a.x = a.z" as a restriction clause for A.) In this case we mark
783 * the EC "ec_broken" and fall back to regurgitating its original source
784 * RestrictInfos at appropriate times. We do not try to retract any derived
785 * clauses already generated from the broken EC, so the resulting plan could
786 * be poor due to bad selectivity estimates caused by redundant clauses. But
787 * the correct solution to that is to fix the opfamilies ...
789 * Equality clauses derived by this function are passed off to
790 * process_implied_equality (in plan/initsplan.c) to be inserted into the
791 * restrictinfo datastructures. Note that this must be called after initial
792 * scanning of the quals and before Path construction begins.
794 * We make no attempt to avoid generating duplicate RestrictInfos here: we
795 * don't search ec_sources for matches, nor put the created RestrictInfos
796 * into ec_derives. Doing so would require some slightly ugly changes in
797 * initsplan.c's API, and there's no real advantage, because the clauses
798 * generated here can't duplicate anything we will generate for joins anyway.

1032 * generate_join_implied_equalities
1033 * Generate any join clauses that we can deduce from equivalence classes.
1035 * At a join node, we must enforce restriction clauses sufficient to ensure
1036 * that all equivalence-class members computable at that node are equal.
1037 * Since the set of clauses to enforce can vary depending on which subset
1038 * relations are the inputs, we have to compute this afresh for each join
1039 * relation pair. Hence a fresh List of RestrictInfo nodes is built and
1040 * passed back on each call.
1042 * In addition to its use at join nodes, this can be applied to generate
1043 * eclass-based join clauses for use in a parameterized scan of a base rel.
1044 * The reason for the asymmetry of specifying the inner rel as a RelOptInfo
1045 * and the outer rel by Relids is that this usage occurs before we have
1046 * built any join RelOptInfos.
1048 * An annoying special case for parameterized scans is that the inner rel can
1049 * be an appendrel child (an "other rel"). In this case we must generate
1050 * appropriate clauses using child EC members. add_child_rel_equivalences
1051 * must already have been done for the child rel.
1053 * The results are sufficient for use in merge, hash, and plain nestloop join
1054 * methods. We do not worry here about selecting clauses that are optimal
1055 * for use in a parameterized indexscan. indxpath.c makes its own selections
1056 * of clauses to use, and if the ones we pick here are redundant with those,
1057 * the extras will be eliminated at createplan time, using the parent_ec
1058 * markers that we provide (see is_redundant_derived_clause()).
1060 * Because the same join clauses are likely to be needed multiple times as
1061 * we consider different join paths, we avoid generating multiple copies:
1062 * whenever we select a particular pair of EquivalenceMembers to join,
1063 * we check to see if the pair matches any original clause (in ec_sources)
1064 * or previously-built clause (in ec_derives). This saves memory and allows
1065 * re-use of information cached in RestrictInfos.
1067 * join_relids should always equal bms_union(outer_relids, inner_rel->relids).
1068 * We could simplify this function's API by computing it internally, but in
1069 * most current uses, the caller has the value at hand anyway.

1495 * reconsider_outer_join_clauses
1496 * Re-examine any outer-join clauses that were set aside by
1497 * distribute_qual_to_rels(), and see if we can derive any
1498 * EquivalenceClasses from them. Then, if they were not made
1499 * redundant, push them out into the regular join-clause lists.
1501 * When we have mergejoinable clauses A = B that are outer-join clauses,
1502 * we can't blindly combine them with other clauses A = C to deduce B = C,
1503 * since in fact the "equality" A = B won't necessarily hold above the
1504 * outer join (one of the variables might be NULL instead). Nonetheless
1505 * there are cases where we can add qual clauses using transitivity.
1507 * One case that we look for here is an outer-join clause OUTERVAR = INNERVAR
1508 * for which there is also an equivalence clause OUTERVAR = CONSTANT.
1509 * It is safe and useful to push a clause INNERVAR = CONSTANT into the
1510 * evaluation of the inner (nullable) relation, because any inner rows not
1511 * meeting this condition will not contribute to the outer-join result anyway.
1512 * (Any outer rows they could join to will be eliminated by the pushed-down
1513 * equivalence clause.)
1515 * Note that the above rule does not work for full outer joins; nor is it
1516 * very interesting to consider cases where the generated equivalence clause
1517 * would involve relations outside the outer join, since such clauses couldn't
1518 * be pushed into the inner side's scan anyway. So the restriction to
1519 * outervar = pseudoconstant is not really giving up anything.
1521 * For full-join cases, we can only do something useful if it's a FULL JOIN
1522 * USING and a merged column has an equivalence MERGEDVAR = CONSTANT.
1523 * By the time it gets here, the merged column will look like
1524 * COALESCE(LEFTVAR, RIGHTVAR)
1525 * and we will have a full-join clause LEFTVAR = RIGHTVAR that we can match
1526 * the COALESCE expression to. In this situation we can push LEFTVAR = CONSTANT
1527 * and RIGHTVAR = CONSTANT into the input relations, since any rows not
1528 * meeting these conditions cannot contribute to the join result.
1530 * Again, there isn't any traction to be gained by trying to deal with
1531 * clauses comparing a mergedvar to a non-pseudoconstant. So we can make
1532 * use of the EquivalenceClasses to search for matching variables that were
1533 * equivalenced to constants. The interesting outer-join clauses were
1534 * accumulated for us by distribute_qual_to_rels.
1536 * When we find one of these cases, we implement the changes we want by
1537 * generating a new equivalence clause INNERVAR = CONSTANT (or LEFTVAR, etc)
1538 * and pushing it into the EquivalenceClass structures. This is because we
1539 * may already know that INNERVAR is equivalenced to some other var(s), and
1540 * we'd like the constant to propagate to them too. Note that it would be
1541 * unsafe to merge any existing EC for INNERVAR with the OUTERVAR's EC ---
1542 * that could result in propagating constant restrictions from
1543 * INNERVAR to OUTERVAR, which would be very wrong.
1545 * It's possible that the INNERVAR is also an OUTERVAR for some other
1546 * outer-join clause, in which case the process can be repeated. So we repeat
1547 * looping over the lists of clauses until no further deductions can be made.
1548 * Whenever we do make a deduction, we remove the generating clause from the
1549 * lists, since we don't want to make the same deduction twice.
1551 * If we don't find any match for a set-aside outer join clause, we must
1552 * throw it back into the regular joinclause processing by passing it to
1553 * distribute_restrictinfo_to_rels(). If we do generate a derived clause,
1554 * however, the outer-join clause is redundant. We still throw it back,
1555 * because otherwise the join will be seen as a clauseless join and avoided
1556 * during join order searching; but we mark it as redundant to keep from
1557 * messing up the joinrel's size estimate. (This behavior means that the
1558 * API for this routine is uselessly complex: we could have just put all
1559 * the clauses into the regular processing initially. We keep it because
1560 * someday we might want to do something else, such as inserting "dummy"
1561 * joinclauses instead of real ones.)
1563 * Outer join clauses that are marked outerjoin_delayed are special: this
1564 * condition means that one or both VARs might go to null due to a lower
1565 * outer join. We can still push a constant through the clause, but only
1566 * if its operator is strict; and we *have to* throw the clause back into
1567 * regular joinclause processing. By keeping the strict join clause,
1568 * we ensure that any null-extended rows that are mistakenly generated due
1569 * to suppressing rows not matching the constant will be rejected at the
1570 * upper outer join. (This doesn't work for full-join clauses.)
