Hi all,
Annoying thing, just because that sounded veeery unsual to me. I would expect a different error.
I have seen this “[kghfrempty:ds]” in past a couple times, and if you did see it too you may have noticed, this is almost as much generic as the ORA-600 itself. It happens because this is usually in the top of KGH errors in general. Some examples:
1.
kghnerror <- kghfrempty <- kghfrempty_ex <- qerhjFreeSpace <- qerhjFetch <- qersoProcessULS <- qersoFetch <- opifch2 <- kpoal8 <- opiodr <- kpoodrc <- rpiswu2 <- kpoodr <- upirtrc <- kpurcsc <- kpufch0 <- kpufch <- OCIStmtFetch2 <- qksanExecSql <- qksanAnalyzeSql
2.
kghfrempty <- kghfrempty_partial <- kghgex <- kghfnd <- kghalo <- kghgex <- kghalf <- ktmrProcessCRClone <- ktmbRead <- ktmrget_int <- ktmrget <- kdmsTransGet <- kdst_fetch_imc <- kdsttgr <- qertbFetch
And as being it can be related either to analyze bugs (as per stack 1), In-Memory Column Store – IMC (as per stack 2), create views, rollback over cluster, trigger creation, use function based indexes, or several other generic situations (there is no pattern, as you can see).
So what do to if you get this message? Well, generically, read all the MOS notes available and try to match you case. IF you match, pray to have a bug for your current version, or open an SR to either have a backport or start a new investigation.
A few examples of things to check:

BUUT I just noticed some undocumented scenario causing this and it might help you on fixing this as well.
I noticed I was getting this error for different queries but always from same application. So I addressed a complete review on application layer and noticed the JDBC 7 on this application. Happens we had just upgraded from 12.1 to 19c.
SO, after upgrading jdbc, it started to work again properly and no MOS SR was required. So lesson learned: When you receive this kghfrempty:ds], speacially after migration, also check for your application JDBC version.
For compatibility Matrix: Starting With Oracle JDBC Drivers – Installation, Certification, and More! ( Doc ID 401934.1 )
Hope it helps, cheers!
