Query running forever #4909

It looks like you're missing some parentheses around the
or, which is leading to an unconstrained join (also called a Cartesian product) across multiple tables. In CodeQL,a() or b() and c()is parsed asa() or (b() and c()). In this case, sincefc.getTarget().getQualifiedName() = "accept"doesn't set any requirements for the other variables, you'll get every possible combination ofConvertInstructionand two types, plus the results you were expecting wherefcis a call toaccept4.I'd recommend using the autoformatter (alt+shift+F in the VS Code extension) to make these kinds of mistakes more obvious. In this particular case, the formatted code would look like this:
from ConvertInstruction conv, Type inputType, Type outputType, FunctionCall fc where fc.getTarget().getQualifiedName() = "accept" or fc.getTarget().getQualifiedName() = "accept4" and conv.getEnclosingFunction().calls(fc.getTarget()) and isNarrowingConversion(conv) and
And the fixed code would look like this:
from ConvertInstruction conv, Type inputType, Type outputType, FunctionCall fc where ( fc.getTarget().getQualifiedName() = "accept" or fc.getTarget().getQualifiedName() = "accept4" ) and conv.getEnclosingFunction().calls(fc.getTarget()) and isNarrowingConversion(conv) and
