DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2

An SQL might cause instance crash at sqlrifis2. An example stack 
trace might be like below: 
 
sqlrifis2 
sqlifnxt 
sqlirdk 
sqldIndexFetch 
sqldRowFetch 
 
This problem can happen if all the following conditions are met: 
a) SORT memory is low 
 
b) The query is run and it fails with sql0973 due to lack of 
sort memory. 
   Users can see the out of memory error in the db2diag.log as 
below:

          "No memory available in 'Shared Sort Heap'" 
          DIA8300C A memory heap error has occurred. 
DATA #1 : String, 52 bytes 
Unable to allocate memory for the initial pool size. 
 
c) The same query is run again soon after (while it is still 
cached in the SQL workspace). 
 
The problem is most likely to be seen for a query with an access 
plan that contains a RIDSCAN over SORT.  The typical example 
here would be a plan that has something like this (example exfmt 
output): 
 
      RIDSCN 
      (  14) 
      319827 
         1 
        | 
      3000 
      SORT 
      (  15) 
      319827 
         1 
        | 
      3000 
      IXSCAN 
      (  16) 
      10.0149 
         1 
 
However, the problem is not limited to just plans like the 
above.  Any SORT that is "simple", like a RID sort as above, or 
a sort of just an integer column, has a chance to encounter the 
issue.
