I'm afraid this is still not correct :-(
The following code is not doing the right thing:
+ case COMBINE_UNION:
+ foreach(lc1, cstep->source_stepids)
+ {
+ int step_id = lfirst_int(lc1);
+ PruneStepResult *step_result;
+
+ /*
+ * step_results[step_id] must contain a valid result,
+ * which is confirmed by the fact that cstep's step_id is
+ * greater than step_id and the fact that results of the
+ * individual steps are evaluated in sequence of their
+ * step_ids.
+ */
+ if (step_id >= cstep->step.step_id)
+ elog(ERROR, "invalid pruning combine step argument");
+ step_result = step_results[step_id];
+ Assert(step_result != NULL);
+
+ result->scan_all_nonnull = step_result->scan_all_nonnull;
The last line there is not properly performing a union, it just sets
the result_scan_all_nonnull to whatever the last step's value was.
At the very least it should be |= but I don't really like this new code.
Why did you move away from just storing the matching partitions in a
Bitmapset? If you want to store all non-null partitions, then why not
just set the bits for all non-null partitions? That would cut down on
bugs like this since the combining of step results would just be
simple unions or intersects.
Also, the following code could be made a bit nicer
+ result = (PruneStepResult *) palloc0(sizeof(PruneStepResult));
+
+ switch (context->strategy)
+ {
+ case PARTITION_STRATEGY_HASH:
+ result->bound_offsets = get_matching_hash_bound(context,
+ opstep->opstrategy,
+ values, nvalues,
+ partsupfunc,
+ opstep->nullkeys,
+ &result->scan_all_nonnull);
Why not allocate the PruneStepResult inside the get_matching_*_bound,
that way you wouldn't need all those out parameters to set the bool
fields.
