[Analytics-Engine] Decorrelate RexSubQuery before marking in PlannerImpl (opensearch-project#21795)

RyanL1997 · bkhishor · commit 3b27e69995e4 · 2026-07-03T17:16:20.000+05:30
* Decorrelate RexSubQuery before marking in PlannerImpl PPL queries that contain EXISTS / IN / SOME / ANY subqueries (and the `subsearch` shapes the frontend lowers to them) reach the analytics engine as a LogicalFilter / LogicalProject / LogicalJoin holding a RexSubQuery. The downstream marking rules — particularly OpenSearchFilterRule, which resolves leaf predicates through a ScalarFunction table that doesn't (and shouldn't) cover EXISTS — reject the operator at run time: IllegalStateException: Unrecognized filter operator [EXISTS / EXISTS] Add a 'subquery-remove' phase at the top of PlannerImpl.runAllOptimizations that runs Calcite's three SUB_QUERY_TO_CORRELATE rules to lower every RexSubQuery into a LogicalCorrelate, then decorrelates the result back to a straight join shape via RelDecorrelator.decorrelateQuery. Every later phase (reduce / pushdown / decompose / marking / CBO) sees a subquery-free tree. Placement: per the Component Responsibilities table in opensearch-project/sql#5246, logical-plan rewrites are an SQL-plugin concern long-term — but the unified path has no logical-optimizer stage yet, and AE already owns RelNode → physical-execution. Putting the rewrite here lets every AE client (PPL today, ANSI SQL / Spark / future frontends) get correct subquery handling without each frontend having to remember to run SubQueryRemoveRule + RelDecorrelator before handoff. When a UnifiedQueryOptimizer lands SQL-side, this phase can migrate upward. After: CalcitePPLExistsSubqueryIT goes from 19/19 fail (all IllegalStateException at the filter rule) to 6/19 pass + 13/19 AssertionError result mismatches. The remaining 13 failures are downstream analytics-engine semantics for bare-group-by Aggregate inside the decorrelated join — unrelated to subquery removal, tracked separately. Tests: * SubQueryPlanShapeTests — 3 new tests covering uncorrelated EXISTS, correlated EXISTS, and IN-subquery; each asserts no RexSubQuery survives the planner pipeline. * RuleProfilingListenerTests — EXPECTED_PHASES extended with 'subquery-remove' so the profile-listener phase-list assertion still matches the actual phase ordering. * Full :sandbox:plugins:analytics-engine:test — 311 tests, 0 failures. Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jialianl@amazon.com> Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jiallian@amazon.com> * spotlessApply Inline the RelDecorrelator.decorrelateQuery call and reorder the RelHomogeneousShuttle import — fixes the spotlessJavaCheck failure sandbox-check flagged on the prior commit. Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jialianl@amazon.com> Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jiallian@amazon.com> * Flip StreamstatsCommandIT.testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery to positive assertion The subquery-remove phase introduced in PlannerImpl makes the where-in-with-streamstats-subquery shape reachable on the analytics-engine route — RexSubQuery lowers to LogicalCorrelate, then decorrelates into a semi-join that the marking + capability rules already support. The test was previously pinned as assertErrorAny(...) because the query crashed at the filter rule before this phase existed. Flip it to executePpl(...) + assertRowCount(1) — `| head 1` over a non-empty matching set returns one row — and update the class-level 'known limitations' comment so testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery is no longer listed alongside testLeftJoinWithStreamstats. Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jialianl@amazon.com> Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jiallian@amazon.com> * Revert testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery flip — keep assertErrorAny The previous flip to executePpl + assertRowCount(1) was based on a single-node local run where the query succeeded. On the 4-node testcluster that sandbox-check uses, the decorrelated streamstats-inside-correlate shape errors with 'Stage 0 sink feed failed: partition stream receiver dropped before send' rather than producing rows. The subquery-remove phase moves the failure point from plan-time (IllegalStateException at OpenSearchFilterRule) to runtime (sink-feed failure during distributed execution) — same overall outcome from the test's perspective (HTTP 500), just a different message. Restore the original assertErrorAny(...) assertion: it catches any ResponseException so both the old and new error shapes satisfy it. Keep the test on the broad-failure pin until the downstream multi-node correctness gap is closed. Locally verified: integTest --tests testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery passes 1/1 against a 4-node testcluster on this commit. Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jialianl@amazon.com> Signed-off-by: Jialiang Liang <jiallian@amazon.com> * Skip testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery with @AwaitsFix — nondeterministic on multi-node The subquery-remove phase makes this where-in-with-streamstats shape reachable on the analytics-engine route, but the streamstats-inside- decorrelated-correlate execution path races on multi-node clusters: sometimes the Stage 0 sender hits a 'partition stream receiver dropped before send' error, sometimes it returns one row successfully. Neither a positive assertion (executePpl + assertRowCount) nor the prior broad-failure assertion (assertErrorAny) is stable across CI runs. Pin with @AwaitsFix until the downstream multi-node race is closed — re-enable by removing the annotation. The annotation message names the specific failure signature so the next person picking this up knows which subsystem to investigate. Locally verified: integTest --tests testWhereInWithStreamstatsSubquery reports the test as skipped (tests=1 skipped=1 failures=0 errors=0).
