In many cases, we can implement a semijoin as a plain innerjoin by first passing the righthand-side relation through a unique-ification step. However, one of the cases where this does NOT work is where the RHS has a LATERAL reference to the LHS; that makes the RHS dependent on the LHS so that unique-ification is meaningless. joinpath.c understood this, and so would not generate any join paths of this kind ... but join_is_legal neglected to check for the case, so it would think that we could do it. The upshot would be a "could not devise a query plan for the given query" failure once we had failed to generate any join paths at all for the bogus join pair. Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL was added.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
