Mere existence of an eclass entry ought not cause paths to get built.
It'd be worth looking a bit harder into what's happening there.


It took me a bit of time to create this problem again as I didn't record the actual query where I hit the assert failure the first time. Though, now I have managed to recreate the problem again by removing the code that I had added which removes eclass members for dead rels.

Using the attached patch, the failing test case is:

create table b (id int primary key);
create table a (id int primary key, b_id int references b);
create index on a (b_id); -- add index to create alternative path

explain select a.* from a inner join b on b.id=a.b_id;

What seems to be happening is that generate_implied_equalities_for_column generates a RestrictInfo for the dead rel due to the eclass member still existing. This new rinfo gets matched to the index by match_clauses_to_index()

The code then later fails in get_loop_count:

TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(outer_rel->rows > 0)", File: "src\backend\optimizer\path\indxpath.c", Line: 1861)

The call stack looks like:

So my solution to this was just to add the code that strips out the eclass members that belong to the newly dead rel in join removal.
The only other solution I can think of would be to add a bitmap set of dead rels onto the PlannerInfo struct or perhaps just generate one and passing that in prohibited_rels in generate_implied_equalities_for_column (). I don't really care for this solution very much as it seems better to make the join removal code pay for this extra processing rather than (probably) most queries.

Of course this is my problem as I'm unable to create the same situation with the existing left join removals. The point here is more to justify why I added code to strip eclass members of dead rels.

Any thoughts? Or arguments against me keeping the code that strips out the eclass members of dead rels?
