  1. BUG #18114: FULL JOIN is replaced by LEFT JOIN in plan

    The Post Office <noreply@postgresql.org> — 2023-09-16T12:35:58Z

    The following bug has been logged on the website:
    
    Bug reference:      18114
    Logged by:          crvv
    Email address:      crvv.mail@gmail.com
    PostgreSQL version: 16.0
    Operating system:   Linux
    Description:        
    
    SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1)) AS t(id)
        CROSS JOIN unnest('{1,2}'::int[]) AS a(x)
        FULL JOIN unnest('{2,3}'::int[]) AS b(x) ON a.x = b.x
    WHERE t.id = 1
    
    Execute this SQL, I get the result 
     id | x | x
    ----+---+---
      1 | 1 |
      1 | 2 | 2
    
    My expection is
     id | x | x
    ----+---+---
      1 | 1 |
      1 | 2 | 2
        |   | 3
    
    The query plan is
                                QUERY PLAN
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nested Loop Left Join  (cost=0.01..0.08 rows=1 width=12)
       Join Filter: (a.x = b.x)
       ->  Function Scan on unnest a  (cost=0.00..0.03 rows=1 width=8)
             Filter: (1 = 1)
       ->  Function Scan on unnest b  (cost=0.00..0.02 rows=2 width=4)
    
    So I think the FULL JOIN is replaced by LEFT JOIN.
    
    The following SQL statements both give me the expected result.
    SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1)) AS t(id)
        CROSS JOIN unnest('{1,2}'::int[]) AS a(x)
        FULL JOIN unnest('{2,3}'::int[]) AS b(x) ON a.x = b.x;
    
    SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1)) AS t(id), unnest('{1,2}'::int[]) AS a(x)
        FULL JOIN unnest('{2,3}'::int[]) AS b(x) ON a.x = b.x
    WHERE t.id = 1;
    
    I can reproduce on PostgreSQL 16.0, 15.4 and 14.9.

    This is not a bug. The row is filtered by the WHERE clause.
    Sorry for disturbing.

     Your expectation is incorrect.
     Last record has null t.id (not 1), so it was
    filtered out by WHERE.

    Yes, I also realized it.
    The result depends on the JOIN order and the comma changed the order.
