* Introduce CompactAttribute array in TupleDesc, take 2David Rowley2024-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new compact_attrs array stores a few select fields from FormData_pg_attribute in a more compact way, using only 16 bytes per column instead of the 104 bytes that FormData_pg_attribute uses. Using CompactAttribute allows performance-critical operations such as tuple deformation to be performed without looking at the FormData_pg_attribute element in TupleDesc which means fewer cacheline accesses. For some workloads, tuple deformation can be the most CPU intensive part of processing the query. Some testing with 16 columns on a table where the first column is variable length showed around a 10% increase in transactions per second for an OLAP type query performing aggregation on the 16th column. However, in certain cases, the increases were much higher, up to ~25% on one AMD Zen4 machine. This also makes pg_attribute.attcacheoff redundant. A follow-on commit will remove it, thus shrinking the FormData_pg_attribute struct by 4 bytes.

* Fix incorrect accessing of pfree'd memory in MemoizeDavid Rowley2024-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For pass-by-reference types, the code added in 0b053e78b, which aimed to resolve a memory leak, was overly aggressive in resetting the per-tuple memory context which could result in pfree'd memory being accessed resulting in failing to find previously cached results in the hash table. What was happening was prepare_probe_slot() was switching to the per-tuple memory context and calling ExecEvalExpr(). ExecEvalExpr() may have required a memory allocation. Both MemoizeHash_hash() and MemoizeHash_equal() were aggressively resetting the per-tuple context and after determining the hash value, the context would have gotten reset before MemoizeHash_equal() was called. This could have resulted in MemoizeHash_equal() looking at pfree'd memory. This is less likely to have caused issues on a production build as some other allocation would have had to have reused the pfree'd memory to overwrite it. Otherwise, the original contents would have been intact. However, this clearly caused issues on MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds.

* Delay build of Memoize hash table until executor runDavid Rowley2024-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | Previously this hash table was built during executor startup. This could cause long delays in EXPLAIN (without ANALYZE) when the planner opts to use a large Memoize hash table.

* Remove obsolete executor cleanup codeAmit Langote2023-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit removes unnecessary ExecExprFreeContext() calls in ExecEnd* routines because the actual cleanup is managed by FreeExecutorState(). With no callers remaining for ExecExprFreeContext(), this commit also removes the function. This commit also drops redundant ExecClearTuple() calls, because ExecResetTupleTable() in ExecEndPlan() already takes care of resetting and dropping all TupleTableSlots initialized with ExecInitScanTupleSlot() and ExecInitExtraTupleSlot(). After these modifications, the ExecEnd*() routines for ValuesScan, NamedTuplestoreScan, and WorkTableScan became redundant. So, this commit removes them.

* Fix memory leak in Memoize cache key evaluationDavid Rowley2023-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When probing the Memoize cache to check if the current cache key values exist in the cache, we perform an evaluation of the expressions making up the cache key before probing the hash table for those values. This operation could leak memory as it is possible that the cache key is an expression which requires allocation of memory, as was the case in bug 17844. Here we fix this by correctly switching to the per tuple context before evaluating the cache expressions so that the memory is freed next time the per tuple context is reset.

* Harmonize parameter names in storage and AM code.Peter Geoghegan2022-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make sure that function declarations use names that exactly match the corresponding names from function definitions in storage, catalog, access method, executor, and logical replication code, as well as in miscellaneous utility/library code. Like other recent commits that cleaned up function parameter names, this commit was written with help from clang-tidy. Later commits will do the same for other parts of the codebase.

* Harden Memoization code against broken data typesDavid Rowley2022-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug #17512 highlighted that a suitably broken data type could cause the backend to crash if either the hash function or equality function were in someway non-deterministic based on their input values. Such a data type could cause a crash of the backend due to some code which assumes that we'll always find a hash table entry corresponding to an item in the Memoize LRU list. Here we remove the assumption that we'll always find the entry corresponding to the given LRU list item and add run-time checks to verify we have found the given item in the cache. This is not a fix for bug #17512, but it will turn the crash reported by that bug report into an internal ERROR.

* Use bitwise rotate functions in more placesJohn Naylor2022-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There were a number of places in the code that used bespoke bit-twiddling expressions to do bitwise rotation. While we've had pg_rotate_right32() for a while now, we hadn't gotten around to standardizing on that. Do so now. Since many potential call sites look more natural with the "left" equivalent, add that function too.

* Flush Memoize cache when non-key parameters change, take 2David Rowley2021-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's possible that a subplan below a Memoize node contains a parameter from above the Memoize node. If this parameter changes then cache entries may become out-dated due to the new parameter value. Previously Memoize was mistakenly not aware of this.

* Allow Memoize to operate in binary comparison modeDavid Rowley2021-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Memoize would always use the hash equality operator for the cache key types to determine if the current set of parameters were the same as some previously cached set. Certain types such as floating points where -0.0 and +0.0 differ in their binary representation but are classed as equal by the hash equality operator may cause problems as unless the join uses the same operator it's possible that whichever join operator is being used would be able to distinguish the two values. In which case we may accidentally return in the incorrect rows out of the cache. To fix this here we add a binary mode to Memoize to allow it to the current set of parameters to previously cached values by comparing bit-by-bit rather than logically using the hash equality operator. This binary mode is always used for LATERAL joins and it's used for normal joins when any of the join operators are not hashable.

* Get rid of artificial restriction on hash table sizes on Windows.Tom Lane2021-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The point of introducing the hash_mem_multiplier GUC was to let users reproduce the old behavior of hash aggregation, i.e. that it could use more than work_mem at need. However, the implementation failed to get the job done on Win64, where work_mem is clamped to 2GB to protect various places that calculate memory sizes using "long int". As written, the same clamp was applied to hash_mem. This resulted in severe performance regressions for queries requiring a bit more than 2GB for hash aggregation, as they now spill to disk and there's no way to stop that. Getting rid of the work_mem restriction seems like a good idea, but it's a big job and could not conceivably be back-patched. However, there's only a fairly small number of places that are concerned with the hash_mem value, and it turns out to be possible to remove the restriction there without too much code churn or any ABI breaks. So, let's do that for now to fix the regression, and leave the larger task for another day. This patch does introduce a bit more infrastructure that should help with the larger task, namely pg_bitutils.h support for working with size_t values. Per gripe from Laurent Hasson. Back-patch to v13 where the behavior change came in.

* Change the name of the Result Cache node to MemoizeDavid Rowley2021-07-14
"Result Cache" was never a great name for this node, but nobody managed to come up with another name that anyone liked enough. That was until David Johnston mentioned "Node Memoization", which Tom Lane revised to just "Memoize". People seem to like "Memoize", so let's do the rename.
