This is an automated cherry-pick of #11089

What problem does this PR solve?

Issue Number: close #11088

Problem Summary:

A pipeline task can stop after a global LIMIT is satisfied while sibling V1 HashJoin probe workers are waiting for every probe input to reach EOF before scanning unmatched build rows or restoring spilled partitions. The early termination was local to one probe worker, leaving peers waiting indefinitely.

What is changed and how it works?

fix: stop hash join probes on pipeline early termination

Add a small shared stopProbePhase() path to V1 HashJoin. A probe operator stopped by pipeline suffix publishes the stop, wakes workers waiting for the normal probe barrier, and closes an in-progress unmatched-build scan. Peer probe operators check the shared stop state at their operator boundaries and finish without starting scan or restore work.

Normal input EOF keeps the existing finishOneProbe()/finalizeProbe() barrier and remains responsible for normal spill finalization.

Add a pipeline regression test that reproduces a right outer join whose LIMIT causes one probe worker to stop before observing input EOF.

Check List

Tests

  • Unit test
  • Integration test
  • Manual test (add detailed scripts or steps below)
  • No code

Side effects

  • Performance regression: Consumes more CPU
  • Performance regression: Consumes more Memory
  • Breaking backward compatibility

Documentation

  • Affects user behaviors
  • Contains syntax changes
  • Contains variable changes
  • Contains experimental features
  • Changes MySQL compatibility

Release note

Fix a potential MPP query hang when a global LIMIT terminates a right or full outer hash join probe early.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved hash join behavior when execution stops early, including queries using LIMIT, preventing unnecessary probe-side processing and ensuring clean cancellation.
    • Improved handling of empty, null-only, or fully filtered build inputs across supported join types.
    • Added broader support and validation for null-safe join conditions, including mixed nullable key scenarios.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for hash join early termination, probe skipping, and null-safe join behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared probe-stop state for hash joins, propagates early termination through restore joins, aborts post-probe scans, updates probe completion tracking, and adds regression coverage for empty builds, null-safe joins, and pipeline LIMIT behavior.

Changes

Hash join probe-stop handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Probe state and shared stop context
dbms/src/Interpreters/Join.h, dbms/src/Interpreters/Join.cpp, dbms/src/Operators/SharedQueue.h
Join now tracks active, normally finished, and stopped probe states. ProbeStopContext completes wait futures and cancels registered restore queues.
Restore probe stop propagation
dbms/src/Operators/HashProbeTransformExec.h, dbms/src/Operators/HashProbeTransformExec.cpp
Restore execution checks shared stop state, registers restore queues, and returns whether restore probing can start.
Probe operator stop handling
dbms/src/Operators/HashJoinProbeTransformOp.h, dbms/src/Operators/HashJoinProbeTransformOp.cpp, dbms/src/DataStreams/ScanHashMapAfterProbeBlockInputStream.cpp, dbms/src/Common/FailPoint.cpp
Probe transforms finish early when the phase stops, abort scan-after-probe work, and use the new fail point and pending probe stream counter.
Probe skip and early-stop regression tests
dbms/src/Flash/tests/gtest_join_executor.cpp
Tests cover empty or filtered build inputs, anti-semi probe reading, and right-outer completion after a pipeline LIMIT. The test block no longer contains merge-conflict markers.
Null-safe equality join tests
dbms/src/Interpreters/tests/gtest_join_null_eq.cpp
Tests cover nullable key map selection, validation, join results, filters, mixed equality modes, outer scan behavior, and probe-stop propagation.

Explanation

The probe-stop changes and the right-outer-join regression test are within [#11088]. The new dbms/src/Interpreters/tests/gtest_join_null_eq.cpp also adds a 1,624-line null-safe equality test suite. The suite covers join-map selection, nullable-key semantics, filters, and join matching across multiple join types. These objectives do not concern early probe termination or the probe-finished wait. The probe-stop tests in that file are relevant, but the null-equality-only tests are unrelated.
