             Summary: PushFilterIntoTableSourceScanRule misses predicate 
pushdowns
                 Key: FLINK-14533
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14533
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Table SQL / Planner
    Affects Versions: 1.9.1, 1.9.0, 1.8.2, 1.8.1
            Reporter: Yuval Itzchakov


When Flink attempts to perform predicate pushdown via 
`PushFilterIntoTableSourceScanRule`, it first checks the RexNodes to see if 
they can actually be pushed down to the source. It does that via 
`RexNodeToExpressionConverter.visitCall`, which traverses the nodes and 
eventually checks to see if it's a condition it knows:
{code:scala}
call.getOperator match { 
  case SqlStdOperatorTable.OR => Option(operands.reduceLeft { (l, r) => 
Or(l.asInstanceOf[PlannerExpression], r.asInstanceOf[PlannerExpression]) }) 
  case SqlStdOperatorTable.AND => Option(operands.reduceLeft { (l, r) => 
And(l.asInstanceOf[PlannerExpression], r.asInstanceOf[PlannerExpression]) }) 
  case function: SqlFunction => lookupFunction(replace(function.getName), 
operands)  
  case postfix: SqlPostfixOperator => lookupFunction(replace(postfix.getName), 
operands) 
  case operator@_ => lookupFunction(replace(s"${operator.getKind}"), operands) 
}
{code}
If we take as an example the following query:
{code:sql}
SELECT a, b, c 
FROM d 
WHERE LOWER(a) LIKE '%%foo%%' AND LOWER(b) LIKE '%%python%%'
{code}
When we hit the above pattern match, we fall to the case matching 
`SqlFunction`, as `LOWER` is of that type. Inside `lookupFunction`, we have a 
call to `functionCatalog.lookupFunction(name)` which looks up the given 
function in the function catalog. Eventually, we reach a static class called 
`BuiltInFunctionDefinitions`, which defines all of Flink's built in functions. 
When we iterate the list of built in functions as follows:
{code:java}
foundDefinition = BuiltInFunctionDefinitions.getDefinitions()
                                .stream()
                                .filter(f -> 
functionName.equals(normalizeName(f.getName())))
                                .findFirst()
                                .map(Function.identity());
{code}
 This doesn't yield a result, because `LOWER`, inside 
`BuiltInFunctionDefinitions`, is defined as follows:


{code:java}
public static final BuiltInFunctionDefinition LOWER =
                new BuiltInFunctionDefinition.Builder()
                        .name("lowerCase")
                        .kind(SCALAR)
                        .outputTypeStrategy(TypeStrategies.MISSING)
                        .build();
{code}
 
And since we're using String to do the lookups, this fails to match, hence 
returning `null` and causing the entire pushdown to fail.
