The trouble with doing this is that an apparently-constant subquery output column isn't really constant if it is a grouping column that appears in only some of the grouping sets. A qual using such a column would be subject to incorrect const-folding after push-down, as seen in bug #16585 from Paul Sivash. To fix, just disable qual pushdown altogether if the sub-query has nonempty groupingSets. While we could imagine far less restrictive solutions, there is not much point in working harder right now, because subquery_planner() won't move HAVING clauses to WHERE within such a subquery. If the qual stays in HAVING it's not going to be a lot more useful than if we'd kept it at the outer level. Having said that, this restriction could be removed if we used a parsetree representation that distinguished such outputs from actual constants, which is something I hope to do in future. Hence, make the patch a minimal addition rather than integrating it more tightly (e.g. by renumbering the existing items in subquery_is_pushdown_safe's comment). Back-patch to 9.5 where grouping sets were introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16585-9d8c340d23ade8c1@postgresql.org

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.
