########## datafusion/physical-plan/src/union.rs: ########## @@ -431,7 +431,12 @@ impl ExecutionPlan for InterleaveExec { self: Arc<Self>, children: Vec<Arc<dyn ExecutionPlan>>, ) -> Result<Arc<dyn ExecutionPlan>> { - Ok(Arc::new(InterleaveExec::try_new(children)?)) + // New children may not be able to interleave; in that case, we fall back to UnionExec. Review Comment: I see how this particular change is beneficial as now the plan runs where it didn't before, so that is hard to argue with and I would be ok merging it in However, I feel like this might be silently masking some bug in the planner. My personal preference would be to make this an error ```rust if !can_interleave(children.iter()) { return internal_err!("Can not create InterleaveExec: new children can not be interleaved"); } ``` And then track down / fix whatever optimizer pass is causing the children to no longer be interleavable FYI @mustafasrepo -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
