Flash: validate DAG expressions, sizes, and concurrency (#11233) - #11239
Malformed IN and GROUP_CONCAT expressions can reach unchecked child access. A zero DAG response chunk size can make encoding loop without advancing the row index while accumulating chunks. Join traversal assumes two children without checking their count, and tunnel/threshold calculations can divide by zero for empty receiver lists or zero concurrency.
What is changed and how it works?
Flash: validate DAG expressions, sizes, and concurrency
Validate GROUP_CONCAT and IN arguments before child access, normalize
invalid response chunk sizes, reject malformed Join and ExchangeSender
inputs, and guard zero concurrency in average threshold calculations.
Require GROUP_CONCAT to contain at least one value and a separator before building its arguments, including the ORDER BY path.
Reject IN expressions without a left operand in both function construction and exprToString, preserving the existing behavior for an empty right-hand set.
Normalize chunk sizes of 0 or less than -1 to DEFAULT_DAG_RECORDS_PER_CHUNK (1024), preserving the existing -1 sentinel and CHBlock behavior.
Reject Join executors unless they have a Join payload and exactly two children before accessing either child.
Reject an ExchangeSender with no encoded receiver task metadata before registering tunnels or computing per-tunnel limits.
Replace the debug-only concurrency assertion in getAverageThreshold with a runtime exception check.

Validation:
Configured with cmake --preset dev and built gtests_dbms with cmake --build --preset unit-tests -j 8.
All 20 selected tests passed with the filter below. The full test suite was not run.
Expression tests cover all six supported IN signatures, both unsafe IN entry points, empty/nonempty IN sets, and malformed/valid GROUP_CONCAT arguments with and without ORDER BY.
Response tests compare 1025 rows encoded with invalid chunk sizes (0, -2, and INT64_MIN) against default-sized output for unary and streaming writers across all three encodings.
Join tests cover missing Join payloads, child counts of 0/1/3, valid traversal order, and output field collection. MPP preparation tests cover empty receiver lists with zero and positive memory thresholds; threshold tests cover zero concurrency and normal rounding/unlimited-threshold semantics.
clang-format 17.0.6 validation and git diff --check passed.
Fix potential TiFlash hangs and crashes caused by malformed GROUP_CONCAT or IN expressions, invalid response chunk sizes, malformed Join executors, and zero receiver or concurrency counts.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Invalid IN, GROUP_CONCAT, join, and exchange expressions now return clear bad-request errors instead of proceeding with missing or malformed inputs.
Invalid record-count chunk sizes now use the default chunking behavior for supported encodings.
Zero concurrency in threshold calculations now triggers a runtime error.
Tests
Added coverage for malformed and valid expressions, executor traversal, threshold calculations, and chunk-size handling.

Explanation
The title names the three areas the changeset validates: DAG expressions, response chunk sizes, and concurrency. The changeset adds input validation for GROUP_CONCAT, IN, Join, and ExchangeSender, normalizes chunk sizes, and guards zero concurrency in getAverageThreshold. The title is specific and matches the main change, though it omits the Join and ExchangeSender validation.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template. It fills in the problem summary, the change description with a commit message, the unit test checkbox, the side-effects and documentation checkboxes, and a release note. It also gives concrete validation steps and test coverage. The integration and manual test boxes are unchecked, which is acceptable because at least one test type is marked. The description states it is an automated cherry-pick, and it links the issue (#11234) that the PR closes.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The reported changes address the historical failure cases from #11234: malformed expressions, invalid chunk sizes, malformed Join executors, empty receiver metadata, and zero concurrency. The added tests support these changes. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Explanation
Docstring coverage is 5.56% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 18 functions across 12 files.

Skip the empty chunk before the first row in streaming -1 mode.
With records_per_chunk = -1 and a non-CHBlock encoding, encodeThenWriteBlocks() adds an empty chunk before it encodes any rows. The unary writer returns only the encoded rows for the same input. The check at StreamingDAGResponseWriter.cpp:142 is the cause. Require a nonempty current chunk before the flush, as in the proposed change.

Review comment at @dbms/src/Flash/Coprocessor/DAGResponseWriter.cpp around lines
29 - 31:
Update the flush condition in StreamingDAGResponseWriter’s encodeThenWriteBlocks
flow to require current_records_num to be greater than zero before flushing,
while preserving the existing records_per_chunk threshold check. This prevents
an empty chunk from being emitted before the first encoded row in streaming -1
mode.
AllowsNonzeroRecordsPerChunk checks only that construction does not throw. A constructor that replaced 1 or -1 with DEFAULT_DAG_RECORDS_PER_CHUNK would still pass. A reference writer built with the same size would not detect this either, because it goes through the same normalization. Assert the expected chunk count from the row count instead.
For TypeDefault and TypeChunk, UnaryDAGResponseWriter writes a block as one chunk for -1 and one chunk per row for 1. The constructor always forces -1 for CHBlock, so CHBlock is excluded. Leave StreamingDAGResponseWriter with size -1 out of this check. Its empty-chunk behavior is a separate issue.
