* Provide separate header file for built-in float typesTomas Vondra2018-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some data types under adt/ have separate header files, but most simple ones do not, and their public functions are defined in builtins.h. As the patches improving geometric types will require making additional functions public, this seems like a good opportunity to create a header for floats types. Commit 1acf757255 made _cmp functions public to solve NaN issues locally for GiST indexes. This patch reworks it in favour of a more widely applicable API. The API uses inline functions, as they are easier to use compared to macros, and avoid double-evaluation hazards.

* Make numeric power() handle NaNs according to the modern POSIX spec.Tom Lane2018-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 6bdf1303b, we ensured that power()/^ for float8 would honor the NaN behaviors specified by POSIX standards released in this century, ie NaN ^ 0 = 1 and 1 ^ NaN = 1. However, numeric_power() was not touched and continued to follow the once-common behavior that every case involving NaN input produces NaN. For consistency, let's switch the numeric behavior to the modern spec in the same release that ensures that behavior for float8. (Note that while 6bdf1303b was initially back-patched, we later undid that, concluding that any behavioral change should appear only in v11.)

* Fix assorted compiler warnings seen in the buildfarm.Tom Lane2018-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Failure to use DatumGetFoo/FooGetDatum macros correctly, or at all, causes some warnings about sign conversion. This is just cosmetic at the moment but in principle it's a type violation, so clean up the instances I could find. autoprewarm.c and sharedfileset.c contained code that unportably assumed that pid_t is the same size as int. We've variously dealt with this by casting pid_t to int or to unsigned long for printing purposes; I went with the latter. Fix uninitialized-variable warning in RestoreGUCState. This is a live bug in some sense, but of no great significance given that nobody is very likely to care what "line number" is associated with a GUC that hasn't got a source file recorded.
* 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.

Use them in a significant portion of backend code. There's more to touch in both backend and frontend code, but these were the easily identifiable cases. The old overflow checks are noticeable in integer heavy workloads. A secondary benefit is that getting rid of overflow checks that rely on signed integer overflow wrapping around, will allow us to get rid of -fwrapv in the future.

* Fix behavior when converting a float infinity to numeric.Tom Lane2017-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | float8_numeric() and float4_numeric() failed to consider the possibility that the input is an IEEE infinity. The results depended on the platform-specific behavior of sprintf(): on most platforms you'd get something like ERROR: invalid input syntax for type numeric: "inf" but at least on Windows it's possible for the conversion to succeed and deliver a finite value (typically 1), due to a nonstandard output format from sprintf and lack of syntax error checking in these functions. Since our numeric type lacks the concept of infinity, a suitable conversion is impossible; the best thing to do is throw an explicit error before letting sprintf do its thing. While at it, let's use snprintf not sprintf. Overrunning the buffer should be impossible if sprintf does what it's supposed to, but this is cheap insurance against a stack smash if it doesn't. Problem reported by Taiki Kondo. Patch by me based on fix suggestion from KaiGai Kohei. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Introduce 64-bit hash functions with a 64-bit seed.Robert Haas2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will be useful for hash partitioning, which needs a way to seed the hash functions to avoid problems such as a hash index on a hash partitioned table clumping all values into a small portion of the bucket space; it's also useful for anything that wants a 64-bit hash value rather than a 32-bit hash value. Just in case somebody wants a 64-bit hash value that is compatible with the existing 32-bit hash values, make the low 32-bits of the 64-bit hash value match the 32-bit hash value when the seed is 0.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Use wrappers of PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED() more.Noah Misch2017-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the previous commit. Specific decisions: - Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt maintainers of non-core text search code will notice. - Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return values of SendFunctionCall(). - Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment. - For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside GBT_VARKEY, on disk. - For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple credible implementation strategies to consider.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a numeric sum accumulator, which performs better than repeatedly calling add_var().

* Remove bogus dependencies on NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION.Tom Lane2016-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value, but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed, any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format; which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000. Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code. Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want. In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches. Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches, since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b). Discussion: <2895.1471195721@sss.pgh.pa.us>

* Fix small memory leak in partial-aggregate deserialization functions.Tom Lane2016-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A deserialize function's result is short-lived data during partial aggregation, since we're just going to pass it to the combine function and then it's of no use anymore. However, the built-in deserialize functions allocated their results in the aggregate state context, resulting in a query-lifespan memory leak. It's probably not possible for this to amount to anything much at present, since the number of leaked results would only be the number of worker processes. But it might become a problem in future. To fix, don't use the same convenience subroutine for setting up results that the aggregate transition functions use. David Rowley Report: <10050.1466637736@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Fix type-safety problem with parallel aggregate serial/deserialization.Tom Lane2016-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original specification for this called for the deserialization function to have signature "deserialize(serialtype) returns transtype", which is a security violation if transtype is INTERNAL (which it always would be in practice) and serialtype is not (which ditto). The patch blithely overrode the opr_sanity check for that, which was sloppy-enough work in itself, but the indisputable reason this cannot be allowed to stand is that CREATE FUNCTION will reject such a signature and thus it'd be impossible for extensions to create parallelizable aggregates. The minimum fix to make the signature type-safe is to add a second, dummy argument of type INTERNAL. But to lock it down a bit more and make misuse of INTERNAL-accepting functions less likely, let's get rid of the ability to specify a "serialtype" for an aggregate and just say that the only useful serialtype is BYTEA --- which, in practice, is the only interesting value anyway, due to the usefulness of the send/recv infrastructure for this purpose. That means we only have to allow "serialize(internal) returns bytea" and "deserialize(bytea, internal) returns internal" as the signatures for these support functions. In passing fix bogus signature of int4_avg_combine, which I found thanks to adding an opr_sanity check on combinefunc signatures. catversion bump due to removing pg_aggregate.aggserialtype and adjusting signatures of assorted built-in functions.

* Fix corner-case loss of precision in numeric pow() calculationDean Rasheed2016-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7d9a4737c268f61fb8800957631f12d3f13be218 greatly improved the accuracy of the numeric transcendental functions, however it failed to consider the case where the result from pow() is close to the overflow threshold, for example 0.12 ^ -2345.6. For such inputs, where the result has more than 2000 digits before the decimal point, the decimal result weight estimate was being clamped to 2000, leading to a loss of precision in the final calculation. Fix this by replacing the clamping code with an overflow test that aborts the calculation early if the final result is sure to overflow, based on the overflow limit in exp_var(). This provides the same protection against integer overflow in the subsequent result scale computation as the original clamping code, but it also ensures that precision is never lost and saves compute cycles in cases that are sure to overflow. The new early overflow test works with the initial low-precision result (expected to be accurate to around 8 significant digits) and includes a small fuzz factor to ensure that it doesn't kick in for values that would not overflow exp_var(), so the overall overflow threshold of pow() is unchanged and consistent for all inputs with non-integer exponents.

* Improve div_var_fast(), mostly by making comments better.Tom Lane2015-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The integer overflow situation in div_var_fast() is a great deal more complicated than the pre-existing comments would suggest. Moreover, the comments were also flat out incorrect as to the precise statement of the maxdiv loop invariant. Upon clarifying that, it becomes apparent that the way in which we updated maxdiv after a carry propagation pass was overly slow, complex, and conservative: we can just reset it to one, which is much easier and also reduces the number of times carry propagation occurs. Fix that and improve the relevant comments. Since this is mostly a comment fix, with only a rather marginal performance boost, no need for back-patch. Tom Lane and Dean Rasheed
* Fix possible internal overflow in numeric division.Tom Lane2015-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | div_var_fast() postpones propagating carries in the same way as mul_var(), so it has the same corner-case overflow risk we fixed in 246693e5ae8a36f0, namely that the size of the carries has to be accounted for when setting the threshold for executing a carry propagation step. We've not devised a test case illustrating the brokenness, but the required fix seems clear enough. Like the previous fix, back-patch to all active branches. Dean Rasheed
* Improve type numeric's calculations for ln(), log(), exp(), pow().Tom Lane2015-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set the "rscales" for intermediate-result calculations to ensure that suitable numbers of significant digits are maintained throughout. The previous coding hadn't thought this through in any detail, and as a result could deliver results with many inaccurate digits, or in the worst cases even fail with divide-by-zero errors as a result of losing all nonzero digits of intermediate results. In exp_var(), get rid entirely of the logic that separated the calculation into integer and fractional parts: that was neither accurate nor particularly fast. The existing range-reduction method of dividing by 2^n can be applied across the full input range instead of only 0..1, as long as we are careful to set an appropriate rscale for each step. Also fix the logic in mul_var() for shortening the calculation when the caller asks for fewer output digits than an exact calculation would require. This bug doesn't affect simple multiplications since that code path asks for an exact result, but it does contribute to accuracy issues in the transcendental math functions. In passing, improve performance of mul_var() a bit by forcing the shorter input to be on the left, thus reducing the number of iterations of the outer loop and probably also reducing the number of carry-propagation steps needed. This is arguably a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints, it does not seem worth the risk of back-patching. Dean Rasheed
* Fix possible internal overflow in numeric multiplication.Tom Lane2015-09-21

| | | | | It's unlikely that using PG_GETARG_INT16 instead of PG_GETARG_INT32 in this pace can cause actual problems, but this still should be fixed.
* Use 128-bit math to accelerate some aggregation functions.Andres Freund2015-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms where we support 128bit integers, use them to implement faster transition functions for sum(int8), avg(int8), var_*(int2/int4),stdev_*(int2/int4). Where not supported continue to use numeric as a transition type. In some synthetic benchmarks this has been shown to provide significant speedups. Bumps catversion.
