* SubLink
*
2003-06-25 23:30:34 +02:00
* A SubLink represents a subselect appearing in an expression, and in some
* cases also the combining operator(s) just above it. The subLinkType
* indicates the form of the expression represented:
* EXISTS_SUBLINK EXISTS(SELECT ...)
* ALL_SUBLINK (lefthand) op ALL (SELECT ...)
* ANY_SUBLINK (lefthand) op ANY (SELECT ...)
* ROWCOMPARE_SUBLINK (lefthand) op (SELECT ...)
* EXPR_SUBLINK (SELECT with single targetlist item ...)
* ARRAY_SUBLINK ARRAY(SELECT with single targetlist item ...)
* CTE_SUBLINK WITH query (never actually part of an expression)
* For ALL, ANY, and ROWCOMPARE, the lefthand is a list of expressions of the
* same length as the subselect's targetlist. ROWCOMPARE will *always* have
* a list with more than one entry; if the subselect has just one target
* then the parser will create an EXPR_SUBLINK instead (and any operator
* above the subselect will be represented separately). Note that both
* ROWCOMPARE and EXPR require the subselect to deliver only one row.
* ALL, ANY, and ROWCOMPARE require the combining operators to deliver boolean
* results. ALL and ANY combine the per-row results using AND and OR
* semantics respectively.
* ARRAY requires just one target column, and creates an array of the target
* column's type using any number of rows resulting from the subselect.
*
* SubLink is classed as an Expr node, but it is not actually executable;
* it must be replaced in the expression tree by a SubPlan node during
* planning.
*
* NOTE: in the raw output of gram.y, testexpr contains just the raw form
* of the lefthand expression (if any), and operName is the String name of
2006-10-04 02:30:14 +02:00
* the combining operator. Also, subselect is a raw parsetree. During parse
* analysis, the parser transforms testexpr into a complete boolean expression
* that compares the lefthand value(s) to PARAM_SUBLINK nodes representing the
* output columns of the subselect. And subselect is transformed to a Query.
* This is the representation seen in saved rules and in the rewriter.
*
* In EXISTS, EXPR, and ARRAY SubLinks, testexpr and operName are unused and
* are always null.
*
* The CTE_SUBLINK case never occurs in actual SubLink nodes, but it is used
* in SubPlans generated for WITH subqueries.

* SubPlan - executable expression node for a subplan (sub-SELECT)
*
* The planner replaces SubLink nodes in expression trees with SubPlan
* nodes after it has finished planning the subquery. SubPlan references
* a sub-plantree stored in the subplans list of the toplevel PlannedStmt.
* (We avoid a direct link to make it easier to copy expression trees
* without causing multiple processing of the subplan.)
*
* In an ordinary subplan, testexpr points to an executable expression
* (OpExpr, an AND/OR tree of OpExprs, or RowCompareExpr) for the combining
* operator(s); the left-hand arguments are the original lefthand expressions,
* and the right-hand arguments are PARAM_EXEC Param nodes representing the
* outputs of the sub-select. (NOTE: runtime coercion functions may be
* inserted as well.) This is just the same expression tree as testexpr in
* the original SubLink node, but the PARAM_SUBLINK nodes are replaced by
* suitably numbered PARAM_EXEC nodes.
*
* If the sub-select becomes an initplan rather than a subplan, the executable
* expression is part of the outer plan's expression tree (and the SubPlan
* node itself is not, but rather is found in the outer plan's initPlan
* list). In this case testexpr is NULL to avoid duplication.
*
* The planner also derives lists of the values that need to be passed into
2003-08-04 02:43:34 +02:00
* and out of the subplan. Input values are represented as a list "args" of
* expressions to be evaluated in the outer-query context (currently these
* args are always just Vars, but in principle they could be any expression).
* The values are assigned to the global PARAM_EXEC params indexed by parParam
* (the parParam and args lists must have the same ordering). setParam is a
* list of the PARAM_EXEC params that are computed by the sub-select, if it
* is an initplan; they are listed in order by sub-select output column
* position. (parParam and setParam are integer Lists, not Bitmapsets,
* because their ordering is significant.)
*
* Also, the planner computes startup and per-call costs for use of the
* SubPlan. Note that these include the cost of the subquery proper,
* evaluation of the testexpr if any, and any hashtable management overhead.

* TargetEntry -
* a target entry (used in query target lists)
*
* Strictly speaking, a TargetEntry isn't an expression node (since it can't
* be evaluated by ExecEvalExpr). But we treat it as one anyway, since in
* very many places it's convenient to process a whole query targetlist as a
* single expression tree.
*
* In a SELECT's targetlist, resno should always be equal to the item's
* ordinal position (counting from 1). However, in an INSERT or UPDATE
* targetlist, resno represents the attribute number of the destination
* column for the item; so there may be missing or out-of-order resnos.
* It is even legal to have duplicated resnos; consider
* UPDATE table SET arraycol[1] = ..., arraycol[2] = ..., ...
* The two meanings come together in the executor, because the planner
* transforms INSERT/UPDATE tlists into a normalized form with exactly
* one entry for each column of the destination table. Before that's
* happened, however, it is risky to assume that resno == position.
* Generally get_tle_by_resno() should be used rather than list_nth()
* to fetch tlist entries by resno, and only in SELECT should you assume
* that resno is a unique identifier.
*
* resname is required to represent the correct column name in non-resjunk
* entries of top-level SELECT targetlists, since it will be used as the
* column title sent to the frontend. In most other contexts it is only
* a debugging aid, and may be wrong or even NULL. (In particular, it may
* be wrong in a tlist from a stored rule, if the referenced column has been
* renamed by ALTER TABLE since the rule was made. Also, the planner tends
* to store NULL rather than look up a valid name for tlist entries in
* non-toplevel plan nodes.) In resjunk entries, resname should be either
* a specific system-generated name (such as "ctid") or NULL; anything else
* risks confusing ExecGetJunkAttribute!
*
* ressortgroupref is used in the representation of ORDER BY, GROUP BY, and
* DISTINCT items. Targetlist entries with ressortgroupref=0 are not
* sort/group items. If ressortgroupref>0, then this item is an ORDER BY,
* GROUP BY, and/or DISTINCT target value. No two entries in a targetlist
* may have the same nonzero ressortgroupref --- but there is no particular
* meaning to the nonzero values, except as tags. (For example, one must
* not assume that lower ressortgroupref means a more significant sort key.)
* The order of the associated SortGroupClause lists determine the semantics.
*
* resorigtbl/resorigcol identify the source of the column, if it is a
* simple reference to a column of a base table (or view). If it is not
* a simple reference, these fields are zeroes.
*
* If resjunk is true then the column is a working column (such as a sort key)
* that should be removed from the final output of the query. Resjunk columns
* must have resnos that cannot duplicate any regular column's resno. Also
* note that there are places that assume resjunk columns come after non-junk
* columns.

* node types for join trees

* Even if the jointree contains no rels, there will be a FromExpr.

* NOTE: the qualification expressions present in JoinExpr nodes are
* *in addition to* the query's main WHERE clause, which appears as the
2001-03-22 05:01:46 +01:00
* qual of the top-level FromExpr. The reason for associating quals with
* specific nodes in the jointree is that the position of a qual is critical
* when outer joins are present. (If we enforce a qual too soon or too late,
* that may cause the outer join to produce the wrong set of NULL-extended
* rows.) If all joins are inner joins then all the qual positions are
* semantically interchangeable.
*
* NOTE: in the raw output of gram.y, a join tree contains RangeVar,
* RangeSubselect, and RangeFunction nodes, which are all replaced by
* RangeTblRef nodes during the parse analysis phase. Also, the top-level
* FromExpr is added during parse analysis; the grammar regards FROM and
