[branch-53] fix: SanityCheckPlan error with window functions and NVL filter (#20231)#20932
Conversation
## Which issue does this PR close? Closes #20194 ## Rationale for this change A query with `ROW_NUMBER() OVER (... ORDER BY CASE WHEN col='0' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)` combined with a filter `nvl(t2.value_2_3,'0')='0'` fails with a `SanityCheckPlan` error. This worked in 50.3.0 but broke in 52.1.0. ## What changes are included in this PR? **Root cause**: `collect_columns_from_predicate_inner` was extracting equality pairs where neither side was a `Column` (e.g. `nvl(col, '0') = '0'`), creating equivalence classes between complex expressions and literals. `normalize_expr`'s deep traversal would then replace the literal `'0'` inside unrelated sort/window CASE WHEN expressions with the complex NVL expression, corrupting the sort ordering and causing a mismatch between `SortExec`'s reported output ordering and `BoundedWindowAggExec`'s expected ordering. **Fix** (two changes in `filter.rs`): 1. **`collect_columns_from_predicate_inner`**: Only extract equality pairs where at least one side is a `Column` reference. This matches the function's documented intent ("Column-Pairs") and prevents complex-expression-to-literal equivalence classes from being created. 2. **`extend_constants`**: Recognize `Literal` expressions as inherently constant (previously only checked `is_expr_constant` on the input's equivalence properties, which doesn't know about literals). This ensures constant propagation still works for `complex_expr = literal` predicates — e.g. `nvl(col, '0')` is properly marked as constant after the filter. ## How was this tested? - Unit test `test_collect_columns_skips_non_column_pairs` verifying the filtering logic - Sqllogictest reproducing the exact query from the issue - Full test suites: equivalence tests (51 passed), physical-plan tests (1255 passed), physical-optimizer tests (20 passed) - Manual verification with datafusion-cli running the reproduction query ## Test plan - [x] Unit test for `collect_columns_from_predicate_inner` column filtering - [x] Sqllogictest regression test for #20194 - [x] Existing test suites pass - [x] Manual reproduction query succeeds --------- Co-authored-by: Andrew Lamb <andrew@nerdnetworks.org>
