* Fix potential use-after-free for BEFORE UPDATE row triggers on non-core AMs.Andres Freund2019-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When such a trigger returns the old row version, it naturally get stored in the slot for the trigger result. When a table AMs doesn't store HeapTuples internally, ExecBRUpdateTriggers() frees the old row version passed to triggers - but before this fix it might still be referenced by the slot holding the new tuple. Noticed when running the out-of-core zheap AM against the in-core version of tableam. Author: Andres Freund
* Generated columnsPeter Eisentraut2019-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an SQL-standard feature that allows creating columns that are computed from expressions rather than assigned, similar to a view or materialized view but on a column basis. This implements one kind of generated column: stored (computed on write). Another kind, virtual (computed on read), is planned for the future, and some room is left for it.

* tableam: Add and use table_fetch_row_version().Andres Freund2019-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is essentially the tableam version of heapam_fetch(), i.e. fetching a tuple identified by a tid, performing visibility checks. Note that this different from table_index_fetch_tuple(), which is for index lookups. It therefore has to handle a tid pointing to an earlier version of a tuple if the AM uses an optimization like heap's HOT. Add comments to that end. This commit removes the stats_relation argument from heap_fetch, as it's been unused for a long time.

* tableam: Add tuple_{insert, delete, update, lock} and use.Andres Freund2019-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds new, required, table AM callbacks for insert/delete/update and lock_tuple. To be able to reasonably use those, the EvalPlanQual mechanism had to be adapted, moving more logic into the AM. Previously both delete/update/lock call-sites and the EPQ mechanism had to have awareness of the specific tuple format to be able to fetch the latest version of a tuple. Obviously that needs to be abstracted away. To do so, move the logic that find the latest row version into the AM. lock_tuple has a new flag argument, TUPLE_LOCK_FLAG_FIND_LAST_VERSION, that forces it to lock the last version, rather than the current one. It'd have been possible to do so via a separate callback as well, but finding the last version usually also necessitates locking the newest version, making it sensible to combine the two. This replaces the previous use of EvalPlanQualFetch(). Additionally HeapTupleUpdated, which previously signaled either a concurrent update or delete, is now split into two, to avoid callers needing AM specific knowledge to differentiate. The move of finding the latest row version into tuple_lock means that encountering a row concurrently moved into another partition will now raise an error about "tuple to be locked" rather than "tuple to be updated/deleted" - which is accurate, as that always happens when locking rows. While possible slightly less helpful for users, it seems like an acceptable trade-off. As part of this commit HTSU_Result has been renamed to TM_Result, and its members been expanded to differentiated between updating and deleting. HeapUpdateFailureData has been renamed to TM_FailureData. The interface to speculative insertion is changed so nodeModifyTable.c does not have to set the speculative token itself anymore. Instead there's a version of tuple_insert, tuple_insert_speculative, that performs the speculative insertion (without requiring a flag to signal that fact), and the speculative insertion is either made permanent with table_complete_speculative(succeeded = true) or aborted with succeeded = false). Note that multi_insert is not yet routed through tableam, nor is COPY. Changing multi_insert requires changes to copy.c that are large enough to better be done separately. Similarly, although simpler, CREATE TABLE AS and CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW are also only going to be adjusted in a later commit.

* Use slots in trigger infrastructure, except for the actual invocation.Andres Freund2019-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for abstracting table storage, convert trigger.c to track tuples in slots. Which also happens to make code calling triggers simpler. As the calling interface for triggers themselves is not changed in this patch, HeapTuples still are extracted from the slot at that time. But that's handled solely inside trigger.c, not visible to callers. It's quite likely that we'll want to revise the external trigger interface, but that's a separate large project. As part of this work the slots used for old/new/return tuples are moved from EState into ResultRelInfo, as different updated tables might need different slots. The slots are now also now created on-demand, which is good both from an efficiency POV, but also makes the modifying code simpler.

* Redesign the partition dependency mechanism.Tom Lane2019-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original setup for dependencies of partitioned objects had serious problems: 1. It did not verify that a drop cascading to a partition-child object also cascaded to at least one of the object's partition parents. Now, normally a child object would share all its dependencies with one or another parent (e.g. a child index's opclass dependencies would be shared with the parent index), so that this oversight is usually harmless. But if some dependency failed to fit this pattern, the child could be dropped while all its parents remain, creating a logically broken situation. (It's easy to construct artificial cases that break it, such as attaching an unrelated extension dependency to the child object and then dropping the extension. I'm not sure if any less-artificial cases exist.) 2. Management of partition dependencies during ATTACH/DETACH PARTITION was complicated and buggy; for example, after detaching a partition table it was possible to create cases where a formerly-child index should be dropped and was not, because the correct set of dependencies had not been reconstructed. Less seriously, because multiple partition relationships were represented identically in pg_depend, there was an order-of-traversal dependency on which partition parent was cited in error messages. We also had some pre-existing order-of-traversal hazards for error messages related to internal and extension dependencies. This is cosmetic to users but causes testing problems. To fix #1, add a check at the end of the partition tree traversal to ensure that at least one partition parent got deleted. To fix #2, establish a new policy that partition dependencies are in addition to, not instead of, a child object's usual dependencies; in this way ATTACH/DETACH PARTITION need not cope with adding or removing the usual dependencies. To fix the cosmetic problem, distinguish between primary and secondary partition dependency entries in pg_depend, by giving them different deptypes. (They behave identically except for having different priorities for being cited in error messages.) This means that the former 'I' dependency type is replaced with new 'P' and 'S' types. This also fixes a longstanding bug that after handling an internal dependency by recursing to the owning object, findDependentObjects did not verify that the current target was now scheduled for deletion, and did not apply the current recursion level's objflags to it. Perhaps that should be back-patched; but in the back branches it would only matter if some concurrent transaction had removed the internal-linkage pg_depend entry before the recursive call found it, or the recursive call somehow failed to find it, both of which seem unlikely. Catversion bump because the contents of pg_depend change for partitioning relationships. Patch HEAD only. It's annoying that we're not fixing #2 in v11, but there seems no practical way to do so given that the problem is exactly a poor choice of what entries to put in pg_depend. We can't really fix that while staying compatible with what's in pg_depend in existing v11 installations.

* Fix heap_getattr() handling of fast defaults.Andres Freund2019-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously heap_getattr() returned NULL for attributes with a fast default value (c.f. 16828d5c0273), as it had no handling whatsoever for that case. A previous fix, 7636e5c60f, attempted to fix issues caused by this oversight, but just expanding OLD tuples for triggers doesn't actually solve the underlying issue. One known consequence of this bug is that the check for HOT updates can return the wrong result, when a previously fast-default'ed column is set to NULL. Which in turn means that an index over a column with fast default'ed columns might be corrupt if the underlying column(s) allow NULLs. Fix by handling fast default columns in heap_getattr(), remove now superfluous expansion in GetTupleForTrigger().

* Refactor planner's header files.Tom Lane2019-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a new header optimizer/optimizer.h, which exposes just the planner functions that can be used "at arm's length", without need to access Paths or the other planner-internal data structures defined in nodes/relation.h. This is intended to provide the whole planner API seen by most of the rest of the system; although FDWs still need to use additional stuff, and more thought is also needed about just what selfuncs.c should rely on. The main point of doing this now is to limit the amount of new #include baggage that will be needed by "planner support functions", which I expect to introduce later, and which will be in relevant datatype modules rather than anywhere near the planner. This commit just moves relevant declarations into optimizer.h from other header files (a couple of which go away because everything got moved), and adjusts #include lists to match. There's further cleanup that could be done if we want to decide that some stuff being exposed by optimizer.h doesn't belong in the planner at all, but I'll leave that for another day.

* Change function call information to be variable length.Andres Freund2019-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this change FunctionCallInfoData, the struct arguments etc for V1 function calls are stored in, always had space for FUNC_MAX_ARGS/100 arguments, storing datums and their nullness in two arrays. For nearly every function call 100 arguments is far more than needed, therefore wasting memory. Arg and argnull being two separate arrays also guarantees that to access a single argument, two cachelines have to be touched. Change the layout so there's a single variable-length array with pairs of value / isnull. That drastically reduces memory consumption for most function calls (on x86-64 a two argument function now uses 64bytes, previously 936 bytes), and makes it very likely that argument value and its nullness are on the same cacheline. Arguments are stored in a new NullableDatum struct, which, due to padding, needs more memory per argument than before. But as usually far fewer arguments are stored, and individual arguments are cheaper to access, that's still a clear win. It's likely that there's other places where conversion to NullableDatum arrays would make sense, e.g. TupleTableSlots, but that's for another commit. Because the function call information is now variable-length allocations have to take the number of arguments into account. For heap allocations that can be done with SizeForFunctionCallInfoData(), for on-stack allocations there's a new LOCAL_FCINFO(name, nargs) macro that helps to allocate an appropriately sized and aligned variable. Some places with stack allocation function call information don't know the number of arguments at compile time, and currently variably sized stack allocations aren't allowed in postgres. Therefore allow for FUNC_MAX_ARGS space in these cases. They're not that common, so for now that seems acceptable. Because of the need to allocate FunctionCallInfo of the appropriate size, older extensions may need to update their code. To avoid subtle breakages, the FunctionCallInfoData struct has been renamed to FunctionCallInfoBaseData. Most code only references FunctionCallInfo, so that shouldn't cause much collateral damage. This change is also a prerequisite for more efficient expression JIT compilation (by allocating the function call information on the stack, allowing LLVM to optimize it away); previously the size of the call information caused problems inside LLVM's optimizer.

* Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

* Introduce notion of different types of slots (without implementing them).Andres Freund2018-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming work intends to allow pluggable ways to introduce new ways of storing table data. Accessing those table access methods from the executor requires TupleTableSlots to be carry tuples in the native format of such storage methods; otherwise there'll be a significant conversion overhead. Different access methods will require different data to store tuples efficiently (just like virtual, minimal, heap already require fields in TupleTableSlot). To allow that without requiring additional pointer indirections, we want to have different structs (embedding TupleTableSlot) for different types of slots. Thus different types of slots are needed, which requires adapting creators of slots. The slot that most efficiently can represent a type of tuple in an executor node will often depend on the type of slot a child node uses. Therefore we need to track the type of slot is returned by nodes, so parent slots can create slots based on that. Relatedly, JIT compilation of tuple deforming needs to know which type of slot a certain expression refers to, so it can create an appropriate deforming function for the type of tuple in the slot. But not all nodes will only return one type of slot, e.g. an append node will potentially return different types of slots for each of its subplans. Therefore add function that allows to query the type of a node's result slot, and whether it'll always be the same type (whether it's fixed). This can be queried using ExecGetResultSlotOps(). The scan, result, inner, outer type of slots are automatically inferred from ExecInitScanTupleSlot(), ExecInitResultSlot(), left/right subtrees respectively. If that's not correct for a node, that can be overwritten using new fields in PlanState. This commit does not introduce the actually abstracted implementation of different kind of TupleTableSlots, that will be left for a followup commit. The different types of slots introduced will, for now, still use the same backing implementation. While this already partially invalidates the big comment in tuptable.h, it seems to make more sense to update it later, when the different TupleTableSlot implementations actually exist.

* Rejigger materializing and fetching a HeapTuple from a slot.Andres Freund2018-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously materializing a slot always returned a HeapTuple. As current work aims to reduce the reliance on HeapTuples (so other storage systems can work efficiently), that needs to change. Thus split the tasks of materializing a slot (i.e. making it independent from the underlying storage / other memory contexts) from fetching a HeapTuple from the slot. For brevity, allow to fetch a HeapTuple from a slot and materializing the slot at the same time, controlled by a parameter. For now some callers of ExecFetchSlotHeapTuple, with materialize = true, expect that changes to the heap tuple will be reflected in the underlying slot. Those places will be adapted in due course, so while not pretty, that's OK for now. Also rename ExecFetchSlotTuple to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum and ExecFetchSlotTupleDatum to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum, as it's likely that future storage methods will need similar methods. There already is ExecFetchSlotMinimalTuple, so the new names make the naming scheme more coherent.

* Use slots more widely in tuple mapping code and make naming more consistent.Andres Freund2018-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's inefficient to use a single slot for mapping between tuple descriptors for multiple tuples, as previously done when using ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), as that means the slot's tuple descriptors change for every tuple. Previously we also, via ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), built new tuples after the mapping even in cases where we, immediately afterwards, access individual columns again. Refactor the code so one slot, on demand, is used for each partition. That avoids having to change the descriptor (and allows to use the more efficient "fixed" tuple slots). Then use slot->slot mapping, to avoid unnecessarily forming a tuple. As the naming between the tuple and slot mapping functions wasn't consistent, rename them to execute_attr_map_{tuple,slot}. It's likely that we'll also rename convert_tuples_by_* to denote that these functions "only" build a map, but that's left for later.

* Split ExecStoreTuple into ExecStoreHeapTuple and ExecStoreBufferHeapTuple.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming changes introduce further types of tuple table slots, in preparation of making table storage pluggable. New storage methods will have different representation of tuples, therefore the slot accessor should refer explicitly to heap tuples. Instead of just renaming the functions, split it into one function that accepts heap tuples not residing in buffers, and one accepting ones in buffers. Previously one function was used for both, but that was a bit awkward already, and splitting will allow us to represent slot types for tuples in buffers and normal memory separately. This is split out from the patch introducing abstract slots, as this largely consists out of mechanical changes.

* Clean up warnings from -Wimplicit-fallthrough.Tom Lane2018-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent gcc can warn about switch-case fall throughs that are not explicitly labeled as intentional. This seems like a good thing, so clean up the warnings exposed thereby by labeling all such cases with comments that gcc will recognize. In files that already had one or more suitable comments, I generally matched the existing style of those. Otherwise I went with /* FALLTHROUGH */, which is one of the spellings approved at the more-restrictive-than-default level -Wimplicit-fallthrough=4. (At the default level you can also spell it /* FALL ?THRU */, and it's not picky about case. What you can't do is include additional text in the same comment, so some existing comments containing versions of this aren't good enough.) Testing with gcc 8.0.1 (Fedora 28's current version), I found that I also had to put explicit "break"s after elog(ERROR) or ereport(ERROR); apparently, for this purpose gcc doesn't recognize that those don't return. That seems like possibly a gcc bug, but it's fine because in most places we did that anyway; so this amounts to a visit from the style police.

* Reorganize partitioning codeAlvaro Herrera2018-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's been a massive addition of partitioning code in PostgreSQL 11, with little oversight on its placement, resulting in a catalog/partition.c with poorly defined boundaries and responsibilities. This commit tries to set a couple of distinct modules to separate things a little bit. There are no code changes here, only code movement. There are three new files: src/backend/utils/cache/partcache.c src/include/partitioning/partdefs.h src/include/utils/partcache.h The previous arrangement of #including catalog/partition.h almost everywhere is no more.

* Merge catalog/pg_foo_fn.h headers back into pg_foo.h headers.Tom Lane2018-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally, include/catalog/pg_foo.h contains extern declarations for functions in backend/catalog/pg_foo.c, in addition to its function as the authoritative definition of the pg_foo catalog's rowtype. In some cases, we'd been forced to split out those extern declarations into separate pg_foo_fn.h headers so that the catalog definitions could be #include'd by frontend code.

* Raise error when affecting tuple moved into different partition.Andres Freund2018-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an update moves a row between partitions (supported since 2f178441044b), our normal logic for following update chains in READ COMMITTED mode doesn't work anymore. Cross partition updates are modeled as an delete from the old and insert into the new partition. No ctid chain exists across partitions, and there's no convenient space to introduce that link. Not throwing an error in a partitioned context when one would have been thrown without partitioning is obviously problematic. This commit introduces infrastructure to detect when a tuple has been moved, not just plainly deleted. That allows to throw an error when encountering a deletion that's actually a move, while attempting to following a ctid chain. The row deleted as part of a cross partition update is marked by pointing it's t_ctid to an invalid block, instead of self as a normal update would. That was deemed to be the least invasive and most future proof way to represent the knowledge, given how few infomask bits are there to be recycled (there's also some locking issues with using infomask bits). External code following ctid chains should be updated to check for moved tuples. The most likely consequence of not doing so is a missed error.

* Indexes with INCLUDE columns and their support in B-treeTeodor Sigaev2018-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces INCLUDE clause to index definition. This clause specifies a list of columns which will be included as a non-key part in the index. The INCLUDE columns exist solely to allow more queries to benefit from index-only scans. Also, such columns don't need to have appropriate operator classes. Expressions are not supported as INCLUDE columns since they cannot be used in index-only scans. Index access methods supporting INCLUDE are indicated by amcaninclude flag in IndexAmRoutine. For now, only B-tree indexes support INCLUDE clause. In B-tree indexes INCLUDE columns are truncated from pivot index tuples (tuples located in non-leaf pages and high keys). Therefore, B-tree indexes now might have variable number of attributes. This patch also provides generic facility to support that: pivot tuples contain number of their attributes in t_tid.ip_posid. Free 13th bit of t_info is used for indicating that. This facility will simplify further support of index suffix truncation. The changes of above are backward-compatible, pg_upgrade doesn't need special handling of B-tree indexes for that.

* MERGE SQL Command following SQL:2016Simon Riggs2018-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MERGE performs actions that modify rows in the target table using a source table or query. MERGE provides a single SQL statement that can conditionally INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rows a task that would other require multiple PL statements. e.g. MERGE INTO target AS t USING source AS s ON t.tid = s.sid WHEN MATCHED AND t.balance > s.delta THEN UPDATE SET balance = t.balance - s.delta WHEN MATCHED THEN DELETE WHEN NOT MATCHED AND s.delta > 0 THEN INSERT VALUES (s.sid, s.delta) WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN DO NOTHING; MERGE works with regular and partitioned tables, including column and row security enforcement, as well as support for row, statement and transition triggers. MERGE is optimized for OLTP and is parameterizable, though also useful for large scale ETL/ELT. MERGE is not intended to be used in preference to existing single SQL commands for INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE since there is some overhead. MERGE can be used statically from PL/pgSQL. MERGE does not yet support inheritance, write rules, RETURNING clauses, updatable views or foreign tables. MERGE follows SQL Standard per the most recent SQL:2016. Includes full tests and documentation, including full isolation tests to demonstrate the concurrent behavior. This version written from scratch in 2017 by Simon Riggs, using docs and tests originally written in 2009.

* Prevent dangling-pointer access when update trigger returns old tuple.Tom Lane2018-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A before-update row trigger may choose to return the "new" or "old" tuple unmodified. ExecBRUpdateTriggers failed to consider the second possibility, and would proceed to free the "old" tuple even if it was the one returned, leading to subsequent access to already-deallocated memory. In debug builds this reliably leads to an "invalid memory alloc request size" failure; in production builds it might accidentally work, but data corruption is also possible. This is a very old bug. There are probably a couple of reasons it hasn't been noticed up to now. It would be more usual to return NULL if one wanted to suppress the update action; returning "old" is significantly less efficient since the update will occur anyway. Also, none of the standard PLs would ever cause this because they all returned freshly-manufactured tuples even if they were just copying "old". But commit 4b93f5799 changed that for plpgsql, making it possible to see the bug with a plpgsql trigger. Still, this is certainly legal behavior for a trigger function, so it's ExecBRUpdateTriggers's fault not plpgsql's. It seems worth creating a test case that exercises returning "old" directly with a C-language trigger; testing this through plpgsql seems unreliable because its behavior might change again. Report and fix by Rushabh Lathia; regression test case by me. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAGPqQf1P4pjiNPrMof=P_16E-DFjt457j+nH2ex3=nBTew7tXw@mail.gmail.com
* Allow tupleslots to have a fixed tupledesc, use in executor nodes.Andres Freund2018-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reason for doing so is that it will allow expression evaluation to optimize based on the underlying tupledesc. In particular it will allow to JIT tuple deforming together with the expression itself. For that expression initialization needs to be moved after the relevant slots are initialized - mostly unproblematic, except in the case of nodeWorktablescan.c. After doing so there's no need for ExecAssignResultType() and ExecAssignResultTypeFromTL() anymore, as all former callers have been converted to create a slot with a fixed descriptor. When creating a slot with a fixed descriptor, tts_values/isnull can be allocated together with the main slot, reducing allocation overhead and increasing cache density a bit.

* Allow UPDATE to move rows between partitions.Robert Haas2018-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an UPDATE causes a row to no longer match the partition constraint, try to move it to a different partition where it does match the partition constraint. In essence, the UPDATE is split into a DELETE from the old partition and an INSERT into the new one. This can lead to surprising behavior in concurrency scenarios because EvalPlanQual rechecks won't work as they normally did; the known problems are documented.

* Remove unnecessary PG_TRY overhead for CurrentResourceOwner changes.Tom Lane2017-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | resowner/README contained advice to use a PG_TRY block to restore the old CurrentResourceOwner value anywhere that that variable is transiently changed. That advice was only inconsistently followed, however, and on reflection it seems like unnecessary overhead. We don't bother with such a convention for transient CurrentMemoryContext changes, on the grounds that any (sub)transaction abort will start out by resetting CurrentMemoryContext to what it wants. But the same is true of CurrentResourceOwner, so there seems no need to treat it differently. Hence, remove PG_TRY blocks that exist only to restore CurrentResourceOwner before re-throwing the error. There are a couple of places that restore it along with some other actions, and I left those alone; the restore is probably unnecessary but no noticeable gain will result from removing it.

* Fix possible dangling pointer dereference in trigger.c.Tom Lane2017-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AfterTriggerEndQuery correctly notes that the query_stack could get repalloc'd during a trigger firing, but it nonetheless passes the address of a query_stack entry to afterTriggerInvokeEvents, so that if such a repalloc occurs, afterTriggerInvokeEvents is already working with an obsolete dangling pointer while it scans the rest of the events. Oops. The only code at risk is its "delete_ok" cleanup code, so we can prevent unsafe behavior by passing delete_ok = false instead of true. However, that could have a significant performance penalty, because the point of passing delete_ok = true is to not have to re-scan possibly a large number of dead trigger events on the next time through the loop. There's more than one way to skin that cat, though. What we can do is delete all the "chunks" in the event list except the last one, since we know all events in them must be dead. Deleting the chunks is work we'd have had to do later in AfterTriggerEndQuery anyway, and it ends up saving rescanning of just about the same events we'd have gotten rid of with delete_ok = true. In v10 and HEAD, we also have to be careful to mop up any per-table after_trig_events pointers that would become dangling. This is slightly annoying, but I don't think that normal use-cases will traverse this code path often enough for it to be a performance problem. It's pretty hard to hit this in practice because of the unlikelihood of the query_stack getting resized at just the wrong time. Nonetheless, it's definitely a live bug of ancient standing, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2891.1505419542@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Ensure that BEFORE STATEMENT triggers fire the right number of times.Tom Lane2017-09-17

* Fix SQL-spec incompatibilities in new transition table feature.Tom Lane2017-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The standard says that all changes of the same kind (insert, update, or delete) caused in one table by a single SQL statement should be reported in a single transition table; and by that, they mean to include foreign key enforcement actions cascading from the statement's direct effects. It's also reasonable to conclude that if the standard had wCTEs, they would say that effects of wCTEs applying to the same table as each other or the outer statement should be merged into one transition table. We weren't doing it like that. Hence, arrange to merge tuples from multiple update actions into a single transition table as much as we can. There is a problem, which is that if the firing of FK enforcement triggers and after-row triggers with transition tables is interspersed, we might need to report more tuples after some triggers have already seen the transition table. It seems like a bad idea for the transition table to be mutable between trigger calls. There's no good way around this without a major redesign of the FK logic, so for now, resolve it by opening a new transition table each time this happens. Also, ensure that AFTER STATEMENT triggers fire just once per statement, or once per transition table when we're forced to make more than one. Previous versions of Postgres have allowed each FK enforcement query to cause an additional firing of the AFTER STATEMENT triggers for the referencing table, but that's certainly not per spec. (We're still doing multiple firings of BEFORE STATEMENT triggers, though; is that something worth changing?) Also, forbid using transition tables with column-specific UPDATE triggers. The spec requires such transition tables to show only the tuples for which the UPDATE trigger would have fired, which means maintaining multiple transition tables or else somehow filtering the contents at readout. Maybe someday we'll bother to support that option, but it looks like a lot of trouble for a marginal feature. The transition tables are now managed by the AfterTriggers data structures, rather than being directly the responsibility of ModifyTable nodes. This removes a subtransaction-lifespan memory leak introduced by my previous band-aid patch 3c4359521. In passing, refactor the AfterTriggers data structures to reduce the management overhead for them, by using arrays of structs rather than several parallel arrays for per-query-level and per-subtransaction state. I failed to resist the temptation to do some copy-editing on the SGML docs about triggers, above and beyond merely documenting the effects of this patch. Back-patch to v10, because we don't want the semantics of transition tables to change post-release. Patch by me, with help and review from Thomas Munro.
