             Summary: Volcano.register should not return stale/merged subset
                 Key: CALCITE-3981
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-3981
             Project: Calcite
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Botong Huang


When a subset is registered, registerImpl() and registerSubset() currently 
simply returns the subset itself. The problem is that subset can become stale 
when relSets get merged (for example in registerSubset() "merge(set, 
subset.set)"). As a result, a stale/merged subset might be returned from 
registerImpl, and the newly registering subtree might get registered 
recursively on top of the stale subset. 

With CALCITE-3755, subsets can now be directly matched by rules. This opens 
another source of stale subset leak: (1) An active subset gets matched, the 
RuleMatch gets queued in RuleQueue. (2) The subset becomes stale due to relSet 
merge. (3) The rule match in (1) is popped from queue and fired. (4) In OnMatch 
the rule gets the stale subset, builds new rels on top of it and regsiter the 
new rels. In this case, the entire new rel subtree will be registered on top of 
the stale subset as is.

Rather than returning the subset as it, register should always use canonize() 
to find the equivalent active subset and return it instead.
