📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR adds debug logging to the VectorizedGroupByOperator::next_batch method. After sorting sorted_indices_ lexicographically, stderr debug output now prints the sorted group count and details of the first up to five groups, with their key values displayed.

Changes

GROUP BY Debug Instrumentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Debug output for sorted GROUP BY groups
include/executor/vectorized_operator.hpp
Debug fprintf statements print sorted group count, first five sorted index positions, and corresponding group-key values to stderr; separate message emitted when hash_group_keys_ is empty.

debug block behind a configurable debug flag (e.g., a static or runtime flag
like vectorized_groupby_debug or executor_debug) and default it to false, so the
printing only occurs when the flag is enabled; additionally sanitize or redact
sensitive values when printing (e.g., replace non-alphanumeric or long values
with placeholders, and keep the limit of first N groups), and ensure the check
uses the flag before accessing sorted_indices_ and hash_group_keys_ to avoid
accidental leakage in production.

Add the proper C stdio header for fprintf/stderr.

include/executor/vectorized_operator.hpp uses fprintf(stderr, ...) in the VectorizedGroupBy debug path (lines 723-734) but does not include <cstdio> (or <stdio.h>), so relying on transitive includes is non-portable—add #include <cstdio> and (optionally) use std::fprintf.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Guard and sanitize this debug logging before merge.

This path now emits raw group-key values to stderr unconditionally on every GROUP BY execution. That is a production reliability/privacy risk (log noise + potential sensitive-value leakage). Please gate this behind a debug flag and keep it disabled by default.
