From 898eb25431847e2c79ba6a9c93e36b2bd75a25bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2006 21:32:17 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix best_inner_indexscan to actually enforce that an "inner indexscan" use at least one join condition as an indexqual. Before bitmap indexscans, this oversight didn't really cost much except for redundantly considering the same join paths twice; but as of 8.1 it could result in silly bitmap scans that would do the same BitmapOr twice and then BitmapAnd these together :-( --- src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++--------------- 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c b/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c index c740a89b9d..1184a047c1 100644 --- a/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c +++ b/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c @@ -9,7 +9,7 @@ * * * IDENTIFICATION - * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c,v 1.202 2006/03/05 15:58:28 momjian Exp $ + * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/optimizer/path/indxpath.c,v 1.203 2006/04/08 21:32:17 tgl Exp $ * *------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ @@ -253,6 +253,10 @@ find_usable_indexes(PlannerInfo *root, RelOptInfo *rel, List *all_clauses = NIL; /* not computed till needed */ ListCell *ilist; + /* quick exit if no available clauses */ + if (clauses == NIL) + return NIL; + foreach(ilist, rel->indexlist) { IndexOptInfo *index = (IndexOptInfo *) lfirst(ilist); @@ -1370,16 +1374,20 @@ best_inner_indexscan(PlannerInfo *root, RelOptInfo *rel, } /* - * Find all the relevant restriction and join clauses. + * Find all the relevant join clauses. */ clause_list = find_clauses_for_join(root, rel, outer_relids, isouterjoin); /* * Find all the index paths that are usable for this join, except for - * stuff involving OR and ScalarArrayOpExpr clauses. + * stuff involving OR and ScalarArrayOpExpr clauses.
