* Improve code inferring length of bitmap for JITed tuple deforming.Andres Freund2019-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While discussing comment improvements (see next commit) by Justin Pryzby, Tom complained about a few details of the logic to infer the length of the NULL bitmap when building the JITed tuple deforming function. That bitmap allows to avoid checking the tuple header's natts, a check which often causes a pipeline stall Improvements: a) As long as missing columns aren't taken into account, we can continue to infer the length of the NULL bitmap from NOT NULL columns following it. Previously we stopped at the first missing column. It's unlikely to matter much in practice, but the alternative would have been to document why we stop. b) For robustness reasons it seems better to also check against attisdropped - RemoveAttributeById() sets attnotnull to false, but an additional check is trivial. c) Improve related comments Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20637.1555957068@sss.pgh.pa.us Backpatch: -

* 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.

* Make naming of tupdesc related structs more consistent with the rest of PG.Andres Freund2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We usually don't change the name of structs between the struct name itself and the name of the typedef. Additionally, structs that are usually used via a typedef that hides being a pointer, are commonly suffixed Data. Change tupdesc code to follow those convention. This is triggered by a future patch that intends to forward declare TupleDescData in another header - keeping with the naming scheme makes that easier to understand.

* Fix jit compilation bug on wide tables.Andres Freund2018-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function generated to perform JIT compiled tuple deforming failed when HeapTupleHeader's t_hoff was bigger than a signed int8. I'd failed to realize that LLVM's getelementptr would treat an int8 index argument as signed, rather than unsigned. That means that a hoff larger than 127 would result in a negative offset being applied. Fix that by widening the index to 32bit. Add a testcase with a wide table. Don't drop it, as it seems useful to verify other tools deal properly with wide tables. Thanks to Justin Pryzby for both reporting a bug and then reducing it to a reproducible testcase!

* Make TupleTableSlots extensible, finish split of existing slot type.Andres Freund2018-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit completes the work prepared in 1a0586de36, splitting the old TupleTableSlot implementation (which could store buffer, heap, minimal and virtual slots) into four different slot types. As described in the aforementioned commit, this is done with the goal of making tuple table slots extensible, to allow for pluggable table access methods. To achieve runtime extensibility for TupleTableSlots, operations on slots that can differ between types of slots are performed using the TupleTableSlotOps struct provided at slot creation time. That includes information from the size of TupleTableSlot struct to be allocated, initialization, deforming etc. See the struct's definition for more detailed information about callbacks TupleTableSlotOps. I decided to rename TTSOpsBufferTuple to TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple and ExecCopySlotTuple to ExecCopySlotHeapTuple, as that seems more consistent with other naming introduced in recent patches. There's plenty optimization potential in the slot implementation, but according to benchmarking the state after this commit has similar performance characteristics to before this set of changes, which seems sufficient. There's a few changes in execReplication.c that currently need to poke through the slot abstraction, that'll be repaired once the pluggable storage patchset provides the necessary infrastructure.

* Don't generate tuple deforming functions for virtual slots.Andres Freund2018-11-15

But the information is useful for assertions in the non-JIT case too (for assertions), therefore it makes sense to move it. This will, in a followup commit, allow to treat different slot types differently. E.g. for virtual slots there's no need to generate a JIT function to deform the slot.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | This mainly de-duplicates code. As evaluating a system variable isn't the hottest path and the current inline implementation ends up calling out to an external function anyway, this is OK from a performance POV.

* Move TupleTableSlots boolean member into one flag variable.Andres Freund2018-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's several reasons for this change: 1) It reduces the total size of TupleTableSlot / reduces alignment padding, making the commonly accessed members fit into a single cacheline (but we currently do not force proper alignment, so that's not yet guaranteed to be helpful) 2) Combining the booleans into a flag allows to combine read/writes from memory. 3) With the upcoming slot abstraction changes, it allows to have core and extended flags, in a memory efficient way.

* Fix partial-build problems introduced by having more generated headers.Tom Lane2018-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 372728b0d created some problems for usages like building a subdirectory without having first done "make all" at the top level, or for proceeding directly to "make install" without "make all". The only reasonably clean way to fix this seems to be to force the submake-generated-headers rule to fire in *any* "make all" or "make install" command anywhere in the tree. To avoid lots of redundant work, as well as parallel make jobs possibly clobbering each others' output, we still need to be sure that the rule fires only once in a recursive build. For that, adopt the same MAKELEVEL hack previously used for "temp-install". But try to document it a bit better. The submake-errcodes mechanism previously used in src/port/ and src/common/ is subsumed by this, so we can get rid of those special cases. It was inadequate for src/common/ anyway after the aforesaid commit, and it always risked parallel attempts to build errcodes.h.

* Add inlining support to LLVM JIT provider.Andres Freund2018-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides infrastructure to allow JITed code to inline code implemented in C. This e.g. can be postgres internal functions or extension code. This already speeds up long running queries, by allowing the LLVM optimizer to optimize across function boundaries. The optimization potential currently doesn't reach its full potential because LLVM cannot optimize the FunctionCallInfoData argument fully away, because it's allocated on the heap rather than the stack. Fixing that is beyond what's realistic for v11. To be able to do that, use CLANG to convert C code to LLVM bitcode, and have LLVM build a summary for it. That bitcode can then be used to to inline functions at runtime. For that the bitcode needs to be installed. Postgres bitcode goes into $pkglibdir/bitcode/postgres, extensions go into equivalent directories. PGXS has been modified so that happens automatically if postgres has been compiled with LLVM support. Currently this isn't the fastest inline implementation, modules are reloaded from disk during inlining. That's to work around an apparent LLVM bug, triggering an apparently spurious error in LLVM assertion enabled builds. Once that is resolved we can remove the superfluous read from disk. Docs will follow in a later commit containing docs for the whole JIT feature. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170901064131.tazjxwus3k2w3ybh@alap3.anarazel.de

* JIT tuple deforming in LLVM JIT provider.Andres Freund2018-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Performing JIT compilation for deforming gains performance benefits over unJITed deforming from compile-time knowledge of the tuple descriptor. Fixed column widths, NOT NULLness, etc can be taken advantage of. Right now the JITed deforming is only used when deforming tuples as part of expression evaluation (and obviously only if the descriptor is known). It's likely to be beneficial in other cases, too. By default tuple deforming is JITed whenever an expression is JIT compiled. There's a separate boolean GUC controlling it, but that's expected to be primarily useful for development and benchmarking. Docs will follow in a later commit containing docs for the whole JIT feature. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170901064131.tazjxwus3k2w3ybh@alap3.anarazel.de

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The LLVM JIT provider uses clang to synchronize types between normal C code and runtime generated code.

Thus the expression compilation code from 2a0faed9d needs to be adapted to 9a95a77d9.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to the interpretation of expressions (which back evaluation of WHERE clauses, target list projection, aggregates transition values etc) support compiling expressions to native code, using the infrastructure added in earlier commits. To avoid duplicating a lot of code, only support emitting code for cases that are likely to be performance critical. For expression steps that aren't deemed that, use the existing interpreter. The generated code isn't great - some architectural changes are required to address that. But this already yields a significant speedup for some analytics queries, particularly with WHERE clauses filtering a lot, or computing multiple aggregates.

That's desirable because it allows to install JIT support as a separate package, and because it allows experimentation with different forms of JITing. 2) JITContexts which can be, using functions introduced in follow up commits, used to emit JITed functions, and have them be cleaned up on error. 3) The outline of a LLVM JIT provider, which will be fleshed out in subsequent commits. Documentation for GUCs added, and for JIT in general, will be added in later commits.
