Exprssion root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_FINAL] is used to access the
target.
I think create_ordered_paths() should actually set the target so that
postgresGetForeignUpperPaths() can simply find it in
output_rel->reltarget. This is how postgres_fdw already retrieves the
target
for grouped paths. Small patch is attached that makes this possible.
Seems like a good idea. Thanks for the patch! Will review.
Here are my review comments:
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_FINAL] = final_target;
+ root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_ORDERED] = final_target;
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_WINDOW] = sort_input_target;
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_GROUP_AGG] = grouping_target;
I think that's a good idea. I think we'll soon need the PathTarget for
UPPERREL_DISTINCT, so how about saving that as well like this?
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_FINAL] = final_target;
+ root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_ORDERED] = final_target;
+ root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_DISTINCT] = sort_input_target;
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_WINDOW] = sort_input_target;
root->upper_targets[UPPERREL_GROUP_AGG] = grouping_target;
Another is about this:
/*
+ * Set reltarget so that it's consistent with the paths. Also it's more
+ * convenient for FDW to find the target here.
+ */
+ ordered_rel->reltarget = target;
I think this is correct if there are no SRFs in the targetlist, but
otherwise I'm not sure this is really correct because the relation's
reltarget would not match the target of paths added to the relation
after adjust_paths_for_srfs(). Having said that, my question here is:
do we really need this (and the same for UPPERREL_FINAL you added)? For
the purpose of the FDW convenience, the upper_targets[] change seems to
me to be enough.
