reparameterize_path_by_child() failed to reparameterize BitmapAnd and BitmapOr paths. This matters only if such a path is chosen as the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join, where we have to pass in parameters from the outside of the nestloop. If that did happen, we generated a bad plan that would likely lead to crashes at execution. This is not entirely reparameterize_path_by_child()'s fault though; it's the victim of an ancient decision (my ancient decision, I think) to not bother filling in param_info in BitmapAnd/Or path nodes. That caused the function to believe that such nodes and their children contain no parameter references and so need not be processed. In hindsight that decision looks pretty penny-wise and pound-foolish: while it saves a few cycles during path node setup, we do commonly need the information later. In particular, by reversing the decision and requiring valid param_info data in all nodes of a bitmap path tree, we can get rid of indxpath.c's get_bitmap_tree_required_outer() function, which computed the data on-demand. It's not unlikely that that nets out as a savings of cycles in many scenarios. A couple of other things in indxpath.c can be simplified as well. While here, get rid of some cases in reparameterize_path_by_child() that are visibly dead or useless, given that we only care about reparameterizing paths that can be on the inside of a parameterized nestloop. This case reminds one of the maxim that untested code probably does not work, so I'm unwilling to leave unreachable code in this function. (I did leave the T_Gather case in place even though it's not reached in the regression tests. It's not very clear to me when the planner might prefer to put Gather below rather than above a nestloop, but at least in principle the case might be interesting.) Per bug #16536, originally from Arne Roland but with a test case by Andrew Gierth. Back-patch to v11 where this code came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16536-2213ee0b3aad41fd@postgresql.org |

PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see which tests get run automatically. authentication/ Tests for authentication examples/ Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via "make check" isolation/ Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level locale/ Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc mb/ Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support modules/ Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable for installing in production databases perl/ Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests recovery/ Test suite for recovery and replication regress/ PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress ssl/ Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling subscription/ Tests for logical replication thread/ A thread-safety-testing utility used by configure
