Parameters:

• attempt=1
• race=true
• run=3
• shard=8

Start by reproducing sql/stats.TestCacheAutoRefresh with race=true and reviewing the linked test report. Trace the failure through pkg/sql/colexec/materializer.go and the surrounding vectorized execution entry points shown in the stack trace. Done means the test passes reliably on the affected release branches and the failure is covered by an appropriate regression check.
