POSSIBLE INCORRECT RESULTS FROM A GROUP OF LEFT JOIN, INNER JOIN, AND COALESCE EXPRESSION IN AN ON PREDICATE | |
Produkt: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 | |
Problembeschreibung: | |
DB2 may return an incorrect result set if the query has all of the following patterns: 1. A group of multiple LEFT OUTER JOIN and INNER JOIN. 2. There is an INNER JOIN as a right side table of another LEFT OUTER JOIN. 3. There is a COALESCE expression in the ON predicate and this ON predicate is not the last join of the group. 4. The first non-null column of the COALESCE expression is from the tables of the INNER JOIN in (2). Example: CREATE TABLE A1 ( A1_ID BIGINT NOT NULL) ; CREATE TABLE A2 ( A2_ID BIGINT NOT NULL) ; CREATE TABLE A3 ( A3_ID BIGINT NOT NULL) ; CREATE TABLE B1 ( B1_SRC BIGINT NOT NULL , B1_DEST BIGINT NOT NULL ) ; CREATE TABLE B2 ( B2_SRC BIGINT NOT NULL , B2_DEST BIGINT NOT NULL ) ; CREATE TABLE B3 ( B3_SRC BIGINT NOT NULL , B3_DEST BIGINT NOT NULL ) ; INSERT INTO A1(A1_ID) VALUES 1,2; INSERT INTO A2(A2_ID) VALUES 1; INSERT INTO A3(A3_ID) VALUES 1; INSERT INTO B1(B1_SRC, B1_DEST) VALUES (1,1),(2,2); INSERT INTO B2(B2_SRC, B2_DEST) VALUES (1,1),(2,2); INSERT INTO B3(B3_SRC, B3_DEST) VALUES (1,1),(2,2); -- Pattern 1: A group of LEFT JOINs and INNER JOINs SELECT B1.B1_SRC FROM B1 INNER JOIN A1 ON B1.B1_DEST=A1.A1_ID LEFT JOIN (B2 INNER JOIN -- Pattern 2: An INNER JOIN on the right side table of a LEFT JOIN A2 ON B2.B2_DEST=A2.A2_ID) ON A1.A1_ID=B2.B2_SRC INNER JOIN B3 ON COALESCE(A2.A2_ID, A1.A1_ID)=B3.B3_SRC -- Pattern 3: COALESCE expression but not the last ON predicate -- Pattern 4: The first non-null column A2_ID is from the table in (2) INNER JOIN A3 ON 1=1 ; The correct result set is: B1_SRC -------------------- 1 2 2 record(s) selected. To observe that a query has hit this problem, inspect the Optimized Statement section of the db2exfmt output of the query. If there is no COALESCE in the statement text, it is possible that the query has hit this problem. | |

Local-Fix: | |
You can obtain the correct result set by manually reordering the LEFT JOIN/INNER JOIN in the query. To ensure that the rewrite is correct, observe that the COALESCE is in the statement text of the Optimized Statement section of the db2exfmt output. | |
