Hi,
Sorry, you are right.
Had not seen this line:
firsttupleslot = node->ss.ss_ScanTupleSlot;


OK, no problem. When writing future messages to this list, please

* Make sure you explain why you think a given code is broken. Ideally,
  bug reports come with a reproducer (instructions how to hit it) but
  that may be difficult in some cases.

* Don't top post, but respond in-line. Top posting makes it much harder
  to follow the discussion, in-line replies are customary here.

* Don't mark questions as bugs in the subject.

Otherwise you'll just annoy people to the extent that they'll start
ignoring your posts entirely.

We're OK with answering querstions and helping people learn the code
base, but the other side needs to make a bit of effort too.

regards

Best regards.

dereference?

Hi,
This is real bug? firsttupleslot == NULL.


Ranier, I don't want to be rude, but I personally am getting a bit
annoyed by this torrent of bug reports that are essentially just a bunch
of copy-pasted chunks of code, without any specification of bench,
position in the file, etc.

And more importantly, without any clear explanation why you think it is
a bug (or even a demonstration of an issue), and "Is this a bug?"

\backend\executor\nodeGroup.c
      if (TupIsNull(firsttupleslot))
      {
              outerslot = ExecProcNode(outerPlanState(node));
              if (TupIsNull(outerslot))
              {
                      /* empty input, so return nothing */
                      node->grp_done = true;
                      return NULL;
              }
              /* Copy tuple into firsttupleslot */
              ExecCopySlot(firsttupleslot, outerslot);

include\executor\tuptable.h:
#define TupIsNull(slot) \
      ((slot) == NULL || TTS_EMPTY(slot))

static inline TupleTableSlot *
ExecCopySlot(TupleTableSlot *dstslot, TupleTableSlot *srcslot)
{
      Assert(!TTS_EMPTY(srcslot));

      dstslot->tts_ops->copyslot(dstslot, srcslot);

      return dstslot;
}


And why do you think this is a bug? Immediately before the part of code
you copied we have this:

    /*
     * The ScanTupleSlot holds the (copied) first tuple of each group.
     */
    firsttupleslot = node->ss.ss_ScanTupleSlot;

And node->ss.ss_ScanTupleSlot is expected to be non-NULL. So the initial
assumption that firsttupleslot is NULL is incorrect.
