* Don't include heapam.h from others headers.Andres Freund2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | heapam.h previously was included in a number of widely used headers (e.g. execnodes.h, indirectly in executor.h, ...). That's problematic on its own, as heapam.h contains a lot of low-level details that don't need to be exposed that widely, but becomes more problematic with the upcoming introduction of pluggable table storage - it seems inappropriate for heapam.h to be included that widely afterwards. heapam.h was largely only included in other headers to get the HeapScanDesc typedef (which was defined in heapam.h, even though HeapScanDescData is defined in relscan.h). The better solution here seems to be to just use the underlying struct (forward declared where necessary). Similar for BulkInsertState. Another problem was that LockTupleMode was used in executor.h - parts of the file tried to cope without heapam.h, but due to the fact that it indirectly included it, several subsequent violations of that goal were not not noticed. We could just reuse the approach of declaring parameters as int, but it seems nicer to move LockTupleMode to lockoptions.h - that's not a perfect location, but also doesn't seem bad. As a number of files relied on implicitly included heapam.h, a significant number of files grew an explicit include. It's quite probably that a few external projects will need to do the same.

* Detach postmaster process from pg_ctl's session at server startup.Heikki Linnakangas2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_ctl is supposed to daemonize the postmaster process, so that it's not affected by signals to the launching process group. Before this patch, if you had a shell script that used "pg_ctl start", and you interrupted the shell script after postmaster had been launched, postmaster was also killed. To fix, call setsid() after forking the postmaster process. Long time ago, we had a 'silent_mode' option, which daemonized the postmaster process by calling setsid(), but that was removed back in 2011 (commit f7ea6beaf4). We discussed bringing that back in some form, but pg_ctl is the documented way of launching postmaster to the background, so putting the setsid() call in pg_ctl itself seems appropriate. Just putting postmaster in a separate session would change the behavior when you interrupt "pg_ctl -w start", e.g. with CTRL-C, while it's waiting for postmaster to start. The historical behavior has been that interrupting pg_ctl aborts the server launch, which is handy if the server is stuck in recovery, for example, and won't fully start up. To keep that behavior, install a signal handler in pg_ctl, to explicitly kill postmaster, if pg_ctl is interrupted while it's waiting for the server to start up. This isn't 100% watertight, there is a small window after forking the postmaster process, where the signal handler doesn't know the postmaster's PID yet, but seems good enough. Arguably this is a long-standing bug, but I refrained from back-batching, out of fear of breaking someone's scripts that depended on the old behavior. Reviewed by Tom Lane.

* Avoid sharing PARAM_EXEC slots between different levels of NestLoop.Tom Lane2019-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, createplan.c attempted to share PARAM_EXEC slots for NestLoopParams across different plan levels, if the same underlying Var was being fed down to different righthand-side subplan trees by different NestLoops. This was, I think, more of an artifact of using subselect.c's PlannerParamItem infrastructure than an explicit design goal, but anyway that was the end result. This works well enough as long as the plan tree is executing synchronously, but the feature whereby Gather can execute the parallelized subplan locally breaks it. An upper NestLoop node might execute for a row retrieved from a parallel worker, and assign a value for a PARAM_EXEC slot from that row, while the leader's copy of the parallelized subplan is suspended with a different active value of the row the Var comes from. When control eventually returns to the leader's subplan, it gets the wrong answers if the same PARAM_EXEC slot is being used within the subplan, as reported in bug #15577 from Bartosz Polnik. This is pretty reminiscent of the problem fixed in commit 46c508fbc, and the proper fix seems to be the same: don't try to share PARAM_EXEC slots across different levels of controlling NestLoop nodes. This requires decoupling NestLoopParam handling from PlannerParamItem handling, although the logic remains somewhat similar. To avoid bizarre division of labor between subselect.c and createplan.c, I decided to move all the param-slot-assignment logic for both cases out of those files and put it into a new file paramassign.c. Hopefully it's a bit better documented now, too. A regression test case for this might be nice, but we don't know a test case that triggers the problem with a suitably small amount of data. Back-patch to 9.6 where we added Gather nodes. It's conceivable that related problems exist in older branches; but without some evidence for that, I'll leave the older branches alone.

* Use perfect hashing, instead of binary search, for keyword lookup.Tom Lane2019-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We've been speculating for a long time that hash-based keyword lookup ought to be faster than binary search, but up to now we hadn't found a suitable tool for generating the hash function. Joerg Sonnenberger provided the inspiration, and sample code, to show us that rolling our own generator wasn't a ridiculous idea. Hence, do that. The method used here requires a lookup table of approximately 4 bytes per keyword, but that's less than what we saved in the predecessor commit afb0d0712, so it's not a big problem. The time savings is indeed significant: preliminary testing suggests that the total time for raw parsing (flex + bison phases) drops by ~20%.

* Reduce the size of the fmgr_builtin_oid_index[] array.Tom Lane2019-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This index array was originally defined to have 10000 entries (ranging up to FirstGenbkiObjectId), but we really only need entries up to the last existing builtin function OID, currently 6121. That saves close to 8K of never-accessed space in the server executable, at the small price of one more fetch in fmgr_isbuiltin(). We could reduce the array size still further by renumbering a few of the highest-numbered builtin functions; but there's a small risk of breaking clients that have chosen to hardwire those function OIDs, so it's not clear if it'd be worth the trouble. (We should, however, discourage future patches from choosing function OIDs above 6K as long as there's still lots of space below that.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/12359.1547063064@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Update docs & tests to reflect that unassigned OLD/NEW are now NULL.Tom Lane2019-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time, plpgsql has allowed trigger functions to parse references to OLD and NEW even if the current trigger event type didn't assign a value to one or the other variable; but actually executing such a reference would fail. The v11 changes to use "expanded records" for DTYPE_REC variables changed the behavior so that the unassigned variable now reads as a null composite value. While this behavioral change was more or less unintentional, it seems that leaving it like this is better than adding code and complexity to be bug-compatible with the old way. The change doesn't break any code that worked before, and it eliminates a gotcha that often required extra code to work around. Hence, update the docs to say that these variables are "null" not "unassigned" when not relevant to the event type. And add a regression test covering the behavior, so that we'll notice if we ever break it again. Per report from Kristjan Tammekivi.

* Replace the data structure used for keyword lookup.Tom Lane2019-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, ScanKeywordLookup was passed an array of string pointers. This had some performance deficiencies: the strings themselves might be scattered all over the place depending on the compiler (and some quick checking shows that at least with gcc-on-Linux, they indeed weren't reliably close together). That led to very cache-unfriendly behavior as the binary search touched strings in many different pages. Also, depending on the platform, the string pointers might need to be adjusted at program start, so that they couldn't be simple constant data. And the ScanKeyword struct had been designed with an eye to 32-bit machines originally; on 64-bit it requires 16 bytes per keyword, making it even more cache-unfriendly. Redesign so that the keyword strings themselves are allocated consecutively (as part of one big char-string constant), thereby eliminating the touch-lots-of-unrelated-pages syndrome. And get rid of the ScanKeyword array in favor of three separate arrays: uint16 offsets into the keyword array, uint16 token codes, and uint8 keyword categories. That reduces the overhead per keyword to 5 bytes instead of 16 (even less in programs that only need one of the token codes and categories); moreover, the binary search only touches the offsets array, further reducing its cache footprint. This also lets us put the token codes somewhere else than the keyword strings are, which avoids some unpleasant build dependencies. While we're at it, wrap the data used by ScanKeywordLookup into a struct that can be treated as an opaque type by most callers. That doesn't change things much right now, but it will make it less painful to switch to a hash-based lookup method, as is being discussed in the mailing list thread. Most of the change here is associated with adding a generator script that can build the new data structure from the same list-of-PG_KEYWORD header representation we used before. The PG_KEYWORD lists that plpgsql and ecpg used to embed in their scanner .c files have to be moved into headers, and the Makefiles have to be taught to invoke the generator script. This work is also necessary if we're to consider hash-based lookup, since the generator script is what would be responsible for constructing a hash table. Aside from saving a few kilobytes in each program that includes the keyword table, this seems to speed up raw parsing (flex+bison) by a few percent. So it's worth doing even as it stands, though we think we can gain even more with a follow-on patch to switch to hash-based lookup.

* Support plpgsql variable names that conflict with unreserved SQL keywords.Tom Lane2019-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A variable name matching a statement-introducing keyword, such as "comment" or "update", caused parse failures if one tried to write a statement using that keyword. Commit bb1b8f69 already addressed this scenario for the case of variable names matching unreserved plpgsql keywords, but we didn't think about unreserved core-grammar keywords. The same heuristic (viz, it can't be a variable name unless the next token is assignment or '[') should work fine for that case too, and as a bonus the code gets shorter and less duplicative. Per bug #15555 from Feike Steenbergen. Since this hasn't been complained of before, and is easily worked around anyway, I won't risk a back-patch.

* Move the built-in conversions into the initial catalog data.Tom Lane2019-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of running a SQL script to create the standard conversion functions and pg_conversion entries, put those entries into the initial data in postgres.bki. This shaves a few percent off the runtime of initdb, and also allows accurate comments to be attached to the conversion functions; the previous script labeled them with machine-generated comments that were not quite right for multi-purpose conversion functions. Also, we can get rid of the duplicative Makefile and MSVC perl implementations of the generation code for that SQL script. A functional change is that these pg_proc and pg_conversion entries are now "pinned" by initdb. Leaving them unpinned was perhaps a good thing back while the conversions feature was under development, but there seems no valid reason for it now. Also, the conversion functions are now marked as immutable, where before they were volatile by virtue of lacking any explicit specification. That seems like it was just an oversight. To avoid using magic constants in pg_conversion.dat, extend genbki.pl to allow encoding names to be converted, much as it does for language, access method, etc names.

* Use symbolic references for pg_language OIDs in the bootstrap data.Tom Lane2019-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch teaches genbki.pl to replace pg_language names by OIDs in much the same way as it already does for pg_am names etc, and converts pg_proc.dat to use such symbolic references in the prolang column. Aside from getting rid of a few more magic numbers in the initial catalog data, this means that Gen_fmgrtab.pl no longer needs to read pg_language.dat, since it doesn't have to know the OID of the "internal" language; now it's just looking for the string "internal". No need for a catversion bump, since the contents of postgres.bki don't actually change at all.

* Improve ANALYZE's handling of concurrent-update scenarios.Tom Lane2019-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the rule for whether or not a tuple seen by ANALYZE should be included in its sample. When we last touched this logic, in commit 51e1445f1, we weren't thinking very hard about tuples being UPDATEd by a long-running concurrent transaction. In such a case, we might see the pre-image as either LIVE or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS depending on timing; and we might see the post-image not at all, or as INSERT_IN_PROGRESS. Since the existing code will not sample either DELETE_IN_PROGRESS or INSERT_IN_PROGRESS tuples, this leads to concurrently-updated rows being omitted from the sample entirely. That's not very helpful, and it's especially the wrong thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back. The right thing seems to be to sample DELETE_IN_PROGRESS rows just as if they were live. This makes the "sample it" and "count it" decisions the same, which seems good for consistency. It's clearly the right thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back; in effect, we are sampling as though IN_PROGRESS transactions haven't happened yet. Also, this combination of choices ensures maximum robustness against the different combinations of whether and in which state we might see the pre- and post-images of an update. It's slightly annoying that we end up recording immediately-out-of-date stats in the case where the transaction does commit, but on the other hand the stats are fine for columns that didn't change in the update. And the alternative of sampling INSERT_IN_PROGRESS rows instead seems like a bad idea, because then the sampling would be inconsistent with the way rows are counted for the stats report. Per report from Mark Chambers; thanks to Jeff Janes for diagnosing what was happening. Back-patch to all supported versions.
