In an example such as SELECT * FROM i LEFT JOIN LATERAL (SELECT * FROM j WHERE i.n = j.n) j ON true; it is safe to pull up the LATERAL subquery into its parent, but we must then treat the "i.n = j.n" clause as a qual clause of the LEFT JOIN. The previous coding in deconstruct_recurse mistakenly labeled the clause as "is_pushed_down", resulting in wrong semantics if the clause were applied at the join node, as per an example submitted awhile ago by Jeremy Evans. To fix, postpone processing of such clauses until we return back up to the appropriate recursion depth in deconstruct_recurse. In addition, tighten the is-safe-to-pull-up checks in is_simple_subquery; we previously missed the possibility that the LATERAL subquery might itself contain an outer join that makes lateral references in lower quals unsafe. A regression test case equivalent to Jeremy's example was already in my commit of yesterday, but was giving the wrong results because of this bug. This patch fixes the expected output for that, and also adds a test case for the second problem.
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. 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. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. 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. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
