One more improvement. To underpin code change:
- return cur_ec; /* Match! */
+ {
+ /*
+ * Match!
+ *
+ * Copy the sortref if it wasn't set yet. That may happen if
+ * the ec was constructed from WHERE clause, i.e. it doesn't
+ * have a target reference at all.
+ */
+ if (cur_ec->ec_sortref == 0 && sortref > 0)
+ cur_ec->ec_sortref = sortref;
+ return cur_ec;
+ }
I propose the test (see attachment). It shows why we introduce this
change: GROUP-BY should juggle not only pathkeys generated by explicit
sort operators but also planner-made, likewise in this example, by
MergeJoin.
