If we're inside a lateral subquery, there may be no unparameterized paths for a particular child relation of an appendrel, in which case we *must* be able to create similarly-parameterized paths for each other child relation, else the planner will fail with "could not devise a query plan for the given query". This means that there are situations where we'd better be able to reparameterize at least one path for each child. This calls into question the assumption in reparameterize_path() that it can just punt if it feels like it. However, the only case that is known broken right now is where the child is itself an appendrel so that all its paths are AppendPaths. (I think possibly I disregarded that in the original coding on the theory that nested appendrels would get folded together --- but that only happens *after* reparameterize_path(), so it's not excused from handling a child AppendPath.) Given that this code's been like this since 9.3 when LATERAL was introduced, it seems likely we'd have heard of other cases by now if there were a larger problem. Per report from Elvis Pranskevichus. Back-patch to 9.3. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5981018.zdth1YWmNy@hammer.magicstack.net
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: https://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. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
