Tom Lane	c7b7311f61	Avoid doing catalog lookups in postgres_fdw's conversion_error_callback. ... As in 50371df26, this is a bad idea since the callback can't really know what error is being thrown and thus whether or not it is safe to attempt catalog accesses. Rather than pushing said accesses into the mainline code where they'd usually be a waste of cycles, we can look at the query's rangetable instead. This change does mean that we'll be printing query aliases (if any were used) rather than the table or column's true name. But that doesn't seem like a bad thing: it's certainly a more useful definition in self-join cases, for instance. In any case, it seems unlikely that any applications would be depending on this detail, so it seems safe to change. Patch by me. Original complaint by Andres Freund; Bharath Rupireddy noted the connection to conversion_error_callback. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20210106020229.ne5xnuu6wlondjpe@alap3.anarazel.de	4 years ago
Tomas Vondra	cb92703384	Adjust batch size in postgres_fdw to not use too many parameters ... The FE/BE protocol identifies parameters with an Int16 index, which limits the maximum number of parameters per query to 65535. With batching added to postges_fdw this limit is much easier to hit, as the whole batch is essentially a single query, making this error much easier to hit. The failures are a bit unpredictable, because it also depends on the number of columns in the query. So instead of just failing, this patch tweaks the batch_size to not exceed the maximum number of parameters.

Tom Lane	f61db909df	Fix postgres_fdw failure with whole-row Vars of type RECORD. ... Commit 86dc90056 expects that FDWs can cope with whole-row Vars for their tables, even if the Vars are marked with vartype RECORDOID. Previously, whole-row Vars generated by the planner had vartype equal to the relevant table's rowtype OID. (The point behind this change is to enable sharing of resjunk columns across inheritance child tables.) It turns out that postgres_fdw fails to cope with this, though through bad fortune none of its test cases exposed that. Things mostly work, but when we try to read back a value of such a Var, the expected rowtype is not available to record_in(). Fortunately, it's not difficult to hack up the tupdesc that controls this process to substitute the foreign table's rowtype for RECORDOID. Thus we can solve the runtime problem while still sharing the resjunk column with other tables. Per report from Alexander Pyhalov.

Etsuro Fujita	a784859f44	Prevent asynchronous execution of direct foreign-table modifications. ... Commits 27e1f1456 and 86dc90056, which were independently discussed, cause a crash when executing an inherited foreign UPDATE/DELETE query with asynchronous execution enabled, where children of an Append node that is the direct/indirect child of the ModifyTable node are rewritten so as to modify foreign tables directly by postgresPlanDirectModify(); as in that case the direct modifications are executed asynchronously, which is not currently supported by asynchronous execution.

Etsuro Fujita	a363bc6da9	Fix EXPLAIN ANALYZE for async-capable nodes. ... EXPLAIN ANALYZE for an async-capable ForeignScan node associated with postgres_fdw is done just by using instrumentation for ExecProcNode() called from the node's callbacks, causing the following problems: 1) If the remote table to scan is empty, the node is incorrectly considered as "never executed" by the command even if the node is executed, as ExecProcNode() isn't called from the node's callbacks at all in that case. 2) The command fails to collect timings for things other than ExecProcNode() done in the node, such as creating a cursor for the node's remote query. To fix these problems, add instrumentation for async-capable nodes, and modify postgres_fdw accordingly. My oversight in commit 27e1f1456. While at it, update a comment for the AsyncRequest struct in execnodes.h and the documentation for the ForeignAsyncRequest API in fdwhandler.sgml to match the code in ExecAsyncAppendResponse() in nodeAppend.c, and fix typos in comments in nodeAppend.c.

Fujii Masao	8e9ea08bae	Don't pass "ONLY" options specified in TRUNCATE to foreign data wrapper. ... Commit 8ff1c94649 allowed TRUNCATE command to truncate foreign tables. Previously the information about "ONLY" options specified in TRUNCATE command were passed to the foreign data wrapper. Then postgres_fdw constructed the TRUNCATE command to issue the remote server and included "ONLY" options in it based on the passed information. On the other hand, "ONLY" options specified in SELECT, UPDATE or DELETE have no effect when accessing or modifying the remote table, i.e., are not passed to the foreign data wrapper. So it's inconsistent to make only TRUNCATE command pass the "ONLY" options to the foreign data wrapper. Therefore this commit changes the TRUNCATE command so that it doesn't pass the "ONLY" options to the foreign data wrapper, for the consistency with other statements. Also this commit changes postgres_fdw so that it always doesn't include "ONLY" options in the TRUNCATE command that it constructs.

Fujii Masao	8ff1c94649	Allow TRUNCATE command to truncate foreign tables. ... This commit introduces new foreign data wrapper API for TRUNCATE. It extends TRUNCATE command so that it accepts foreign tables as the targets to truncate and invokes that API. Also it extends postgres_fdw so that it can issue TRUNCATE command to foreign servers, by adding new routine for that TRUNCATE API. The information about options specified in TRUNCATE command, e.g., ONLY, CACADE, etc is passed to FDW via API. The list of foreign tables to truncate is also passed to FDW. FDW truncates the foreign data sources that the passed foreign tables specify, based on those information. For example, postgres_fdw constructs TRUNCATE command using them and issues it to the foreign server. For performance, TRUNCATE command invokes the FDW routine for TRUNCATE once per foreign server that foreign tables to truncate belong to.

Fujii Masao	a3740c48eb	postgres_fdw: Allow partitions specified in LIMIT TO to be imported. ... Commit f49bcd4ef3 disallowed postgres_fdw to import table partitions. Because all data can be accessed through the partitioned table which is the root of the partitioning hierarchy, importing only partitioned table should allow access to all the data without creating extra objects. This is a reasonable default when importing a whole schema. But there may be the case where users want to explicitly import one of a partitioned tables' partitions. For that use case, this commit allows postgres_fdw to import tables or foreign tables which are partitions of some other table only when they are explicitly specified in LIMIT TO clause. It doesn't change the behavior that any partitions not specified in LIMIT TO are automatically excluded in IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA command.

Tom Lane	86dc90056d	Rework planning and execution of UPDATE and DELETE. ... This patch makes two closely related sets of changes: 1. For UPDATE, the subplan of the ModifyTable node now only delivers the new values of the changed columns (i.e., the expressions computed in the query's SET clause) plus row identity information such as CTID. ModifyTable must re-fetch the original tuple to merge in the old values of any unchanged columns. The core advantage of this is that the changed columns are uniform across all tables of an inherited or partitioned target relation, whereas the other columns might not be. A secondary advantage, when the UPDATE involves joins, is that less data needs to pass through the plan tree. The disadvantage of course is an extra fetch of each tuple to be updated. However, that seems to be very nearly free in context; even worst-case tests don't show it to add more than a couple percent to the total query cost. At some point it might be interesting to combine the re-fetch with the tuple access that ModifyTable must do anyway to mark the old tuple dead; but that would require a good deal of refactoring and it seems it wouldn't buy all that much, so this patch doesn't attempt it. 2. For inherited UPDATE/DELETE, instead of generating a separate subplan for each target relation, we now generate a single subplan that is just exactly like a SELECT's plan, then stick ModifyTable on top of that. To let ModifyTable know which target relation a given incoming row refers to, a tableoid junk column is added to the row identity information. This gets rid of the horrid hack that was inheritance_planner(), eliminating O(N^2) planning cost and memory consumption in cases where there were many unprunable target relations. Point 2 of course requires point 1, so that there is a uniform definition of the non-junk columns to be returned by the subplan. We can't insist on uniform definition of the row identity junk columns however, if we want to keep the ability to have both plain and foreign tables in a partitioning hierarchy. Since it wouldn't scale very far to have every child table have its own row identity column, this patch includes provisions to merge similar row identity columns into one column of the subplan result. In particular, we can merge the whole-row Vars typically used as row identity by FDWs into one column by pretending they are type RECORD. (It's still okay for the actual composite Datums to be labeled with the table's rowtype OID, though.) There is more that can be done to file down residual inefficiencies in this patch, but it seems to be committable now. FDW authors should note several API changes: * The argument list for AddForeignUpdateTargets() has changed, and so has the method it must use for adding junk columns to the query. Call add_row_identity_var() instead of manipulating the parse tree directly. You might want to reconsider exactly what you're adding, too. * PlanDirectModify() must now work a little harder to find the ForeignScan plan node; if the foreign table is part of a partitioning hierarchy then the ForeignScan might not be the direct child of ModifyTable. See postgres_fdw for sample code. * To check whether a relation is a target relation, it's no longer sufficient to compare its relid to root->parse->resultRelation. Instead, check it against all_result_relids or leaf_result_relids, as appropriate.

Etsuro Fujita	27e1f14563	Add support for asynchronous execution. ... This implements asynchronous execution, which runs multiple parts of a non-parallel-aware Append concurrently rather than serially to improve performance when possible. Currently, the only node type that can be run concurrently is a ForeignScan that is an immediate child of such an Append. In the case where such ForeignScans access data on different remote servers, this would run those ForeignScans concurrently, and overlap the remote operations to be performed simultaneously, so it'll improve the performance especially when the operations involve time-consuming ones such as remote join and remote aggregation. We may extend this to other node types such as joins or aggregates over ForeignScans in the future. This also adds the support for postgres_fdw, which is enabled by the table-level/server-level option "async_capable". The default is false. Robert Haas, Kyotaro Horiguchi, Thomas Munro, and myself.

David Rowley	ed934d4fa3	Allow estimate_num_groups() to pass back further details about the estimation ... Here we add a new output parameter to estimate_num_groups() to allow it to inform the caller of additional, possibly useful information about the estimation. The new output parameter is a struct that currently contains just a single field with a set of flags. This was done rather than having the flags as an output parameter to allow future fields to be added without having to change the signature of the function at a later date when we want to pass back further information that might not be suitable to store in the flags field. It seems reasonable that one day in the future that the planner would want to know more about the estimation. For example, how many individual sets of statistics was the estimation generated from? The planner may want to take that into account if we ever want to consider risks as well as costs when generating plans. For now, there's only 1 flag we set in the flags field. This is to indicate if the estimation fell back on using the hard-coded constants in any part of the estimation. Callers may like to change their behavior if this is set, and this gives them the ability to do so. Callers may pass the flag pointer as NULL if they have no interest in obtaining any additional information about the estimate. We're not adding any actual usages of these flags here. Some follow-up commits will make use of this feature. Additionally, we're also not making any changes to add support for clauselist_selectivity() and clauselist_selectivity_ext(). However, if this is required in the future then the same struct being added here should be fine to use as a new output argument for those functions too.

Tomas Vondra	927f453a94	Fix tuple routing to initialize batching only for inserts ... A cross-partition update on a partitioned table is implemented as a delete followed by an insert. With foreign partitions, this was however causing issues, because the FDW and core may disagree on when to enable batching. postgres_fdw was only allowing batching for plain inserts (CMD_INSERT) while core was trying to batch the insert component of the cross-partition update. Fix by restricting core to apply batching only to plain CMD_INSERT queries. It's possible to allow batching for cross-partition updates, but that will require more extensive changes, so better to leave that for a separate patch.

Heikki Linnakangas	6214e2b228	Fix permission checks on constraint violation errors on partitions. ... If a cross-partition UPDATE violates a constraint on the target partition, and the columns in the new partition are in different physical order than in the parent, the error message can reveal columns that the user does not have SELECT permission on. A similar bug was fixed earlier in commit 804b6b6db4. The cause of the bug is that the callers of the ExecBuildSlotValueDescription() function got confused when constructing the list of modified columns. If the tuple was routed from a parent, we converted the tuple to the parent's format, but the list of modified columns was grabbed directly from the child's RTE entry. ExecUpdateLockMode() had a similar issue. That lead to confusion on which columns are key columns, leading to wrong tuple lock being taken on tables referenced by foreign keys, when a row is updated with INSERT ON CONFLICT UPDATE. A new isolation test is added for that corner case. With this patch, the ri_RangeTableIndex field is no longer set for partitions that don't have an entry in the range table. Previously, it was set to the RTE entry of the parent relation, but that was confusing. NOTE: This modifies the ResultRelInfo struct, replacing the ri_PartitionRoot field with ri_RootResultRelInfo. That's a bit risky to backpatch, because it breaks any extensions accessing the field. The change that ri_RangeTableIndex is not set for partitions could potentially break extensions, too. The ResultRelInfos are visible to FDWs at least, and this patch required small changes to postgres_fdw. Nevertheless, this seem like the least bad option. I don't think these fields widely used in extensions; I don't think there are FDWs out there that uses the FDW "direct update" API, other than postgres_fdw. If there is, you will get a compilation error, so hopefully it is caught quickly. Backpatch to 11, where support for both cross-partition UPDATEs, and unique indexes on partitioned tables, were added. Reviewed-by: Amit Langote Security: CVE-2021-3393	4 years ago

Tom Lane	55dc86eca7	Fix pull_varnos' miscomputation of relids set for a PlaceHolderVar. ... Previously, pull_varnos() took the relids of a PlaceHolderVar as being equal to the relids in its contents, but that fails to account for the possibility that we have to postpone evaluation of the PHV due to outer joins. This could result in a malformed plan. The known cases end up triggering the "failed to assign all NestLoopParams to plan nodes" sanity check in createplan.c, but other symptoms may be possible. The right value to use is the join level we actually intend to evaluate the PHV at. We can get that from the ph_eval_at field of the associated PlaceHolderInfo. However, there are some places that call pull_varnos() before the PlaceHolderInfos have been created; in that case, fall back to the conservative assumption that the PHV will be evaluated at its syntactic level. (In principle this might result in missing some legal optimization, but I'm not aware of any cases where it's an issue in practice.) Things are also a bit ticklish for calls occurring during deconstruct_jointree(), but AFAICS the ph_eval_at fields should have reached their final values by the time we need them. The main problem in making this work is that pull_varnos() has no way to get at the PlaceHolderInfos. We can fix that easily, if a bit tediously, in HEAD by passing it the planner "root" pointer. In the back branches that'd cause an unacceptable API/ABI break for extensions, so leave the existing entry points alone and add new ones with the additional parameter. (If an old entry point is called and encounters a PHV, it'll fall back to using the syntactic level, again possibly missing some valid optimization.) Back-patch to v12. The computation is surely also wrong before that, but it appears that we cannot reach a bad plan thanks to join order restrictions imposed on the subquery that the PlaceHolderVar came from. The error only became reachable when commit 4be058fe9 allowed trivial subqueries to be collapsed out completely, eliminating their join order restrictions. Per report from Stephan Springl.

Tom Lane	3d351d916b	Redefine pg_class.reltuples to be -1 before the first VACUUM or ANALYZE. ... Historically, we've considered the state with relpages and reltuples both zero as indicating that we do not know the table's tuple density. This is problematic because it's impossible to distinguish "never yet vacuumed" from "vacuumed and seen to be empty". In particular, a user cannot use VACUUM or ANALYZE to override the planner's normal heuristic that an empty table should not be believed to be empty because it is probably about to get populated. That heuristic is a good safety measure, so I don't care to abandon it, but there should be a way to override it if the table is indeed intended to stay empty. Hence, represent the initial state of ignorance by setting reltuples to -1 (relpages is still set to zero), and apply the minimum-ten-pages heuristic only when reltuples is still -1. If the table is empty, VACUUM or ANALYZE (but not CREATE INDEX) will override that to reltuples = relpages = 0, and then we'll plan on that basis. This requires a bunch of fiddly little changes, but we can get rid of some ugly kluges that were formerly needed to maintain the old definition. One notable point is that FDWs' GetForeignRelSize methods will see baserel->tuples = -1 when no ANALYZE has been done on the foreign table. That seems like a net improvement, since those methods were formerly also in the dark about what baserel->tuples = 0 really meant. Still, it is an API change. I bumped catversion because code predating this change would get confused by seeing reltuples = -1. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/F02298E0-6EF4-49A1-BCB6-C484794D9ACC@thebuild.com	5 years ago

After the code rearrangement of commit 4526951d5, we do have that info available at the right time, so make this output follow the normal rule.

Tom Lane	4526951d56	Make postgres_fdw's "Relations" output agree with the rest of EXPLAIN. ... The relation aliases shown in the "Relations" line for a foreign scan didn't always agree with those used in the rest of EXPLAIN's output. The regression test result changes appearing here provide examples. It's really impossible for postgres_fdw to duplicate EXPLAIN's alias assignment logic during postgresGetForeignRelSize(), because of the de-duplication that EXPLAIN does on a global basis --- and anyway, trying to duplicate that would be unmaintainable. Instead, just put numeric rangetable indexes into the string, and convert those to table names/aliases in postgresExplainForeignScan, which does have access to the results of ruleutils.c's alias assignment logic. Aside from being more reliable, this shifts some work from planning to EXPLAIN, which is a good tradeoff for performance. (I also changed from using StringInfo to using psprintf, which makes the code slightly simpler and reduces its memory consumption.) A kluge required by this solution is that we have to reverse-engineer the rtoffset applied by setrefs.c. If that logic ever fails (presumably because the member tables of a join got offset by different amounts), we'll need some more cooperation with setrefs.c to keep things straight. But for now, there's no need for that. Arguably this is a back-patchable bug fix, but since this is a mostly cosmetic issue and there have been no field complaints, I'll refrain for now.

Tom Lane	5ee190f8ec	Rationalize use of list_concat + list_copy combinations. ... In the wake of commit 1cff1b95a, the result of list_concat no longer shares the ListCells of the second input. Therefore, we can replace "list_concat(x, list_copy(y))" with just "list_concat(x, y)". To improve call sites that were list_copy'ing the first argument, or both arguments, invent "list_concat_copy()" which produces a new list sharing no ListCells with either input. (This is a bit faster than "list_concat(list_copy(x), y)" because it makes the result list the right size to start with.) In call sites that were not list_copy'ing the second argument, the new semantics mean that we are usually leaking the second List's storage, since typically there is no remaining pointer to it. We considered inventing another list_copy variant that would list_free the second input, but concluded that for most call sites it isn't worth worrying about, given the relative compactness of the new List representation. (Note that in cases where such leakage would happen, the old code already leaked the second List's header; so we're only discussing the size of the leak not whether there is one. I did adjust two or three places that had been troubling to free that header so that they manually free the whole second List.) Patch by me; thanks to David Rowley for review.

Etsuro Fujita	08d2d58a2a	postgres_fdw: Fix costing of pre-sorted foreign paths with local stats. ... Commit aa09cd242 modified estimate_path_cost_size() so that it reuses cached costs of a basic foreign path for a given foreign-base/join relation when costing pre-sorted foreign paths for that relation, but it incorrectly re-computed retrieved_rows, an estimated number of rows fetched from the remote side, which is needed for costing both the basic and pre-sorted foreign paths. To fix, handle retrieved_rows the same way as the cached costs: store in that relation's fpinfo the retrieved_rows estimate computed for costing the basic foreign path, and reuse it when costing the pre-sorted foreign paths. Also, reuse the rows/width estimates stored in that relation's fpinfo when costing the pre-sorted foreign paths, to make the code consistent. In commit ffab494a4, to extend the costing mentioned above to the foreign-grouping case, I made a change to add_foreign_grouping_paths() to store in a given foreign-grouped relation's RelOptInfo the rows estimate for that relation for reuse, but this patch makes that change unnecessary since we already store the row estimate in that relation's fpinfo, which this patch reuses when costing a foreign path for that relation with the sortClause ordering; remove that change. In passing, fix thinko in commit 7012b132d: in estimate_path_cost_size(), the width estimate for a given foreign-grouped relation to be stored in that relation's fpinfo was reset incorrectly when costing a basic foreign path for that relation with local stats.

Tom Lane	8cad5adb9c	Avoid postgres_fdw crash for a targetlist entry that's just a Param. ... foreign_grouping_ok() is willing to put fairly arbitrary expressions into the targetlist of a remote SELECT that's doing grouping or aggregation on the remote side, including expressions that have no foreign component to them at all. This is possibly a bit dubious from an efficiency standpoint; but it rises to the level of a crash-causing bug if the expression is just a Param or non-foreign Var. In that case, the expression will necessarily also appear in the fdw_exprs list of values we need to send to the remote server, and then setrefs.c's set_foreignscan_references will mistakenly replace the fdw_exprs entry with a Var referencing the targetlist result. The root cause of this problem is bad design in commit e7cb7ee14: it put logic into set_foreignscan_references that IMV is postgres_fdw-specific, and yet this bug shows that it isn't postgres_fdw-specific enough. The transformation being done on fdw_exprs assumes that fdw_exprs is to be evaluated with the fdw_scan_tlist as input, which is not how postgres_fdw uses it; yet it could be the right thing for some other FDW. (In the bigger picture, setrefs.c has no business assuming this for the other expression fields of a ForeignScan either.) The right fix therefore would be to expand the FDW API so that the FDW could inform setrefs.c how it intends to evaluate these various expressions. We can't change that in the back branches though, and we also can't just summarily change setrefs.c's behavior there, or we're likely to break external FDWs. As a stopgap, therefore, hack up postgres_fdw so that it won't attempt to send targetlist entries that look exactly like the fdw_exprs entries they'd produce. In most cases this actually produces a superior plan, IMO, with less data needing to be transmitted and returned; so we probably ought to think harder about whether we should ship tlist expressions at all when they don't contain any foreign Vars or Aggs. But that's an optimization not a bug fix so I left it for later. One case where this produces an inferior plan is where the expression in question is actually a GROUP BY expression: then the restriction prevents us from using remote grouping. It might be possible to work around that (since that would reduce to group-by-a-constant on the remote side); but it seems like a pretty unlikely corner case, so I'm not sure it's worth expending effort solely to improve that. In any case the right long-term answer is to fix the API as sketched above, and then revert this hack. Per bug #15781 from Sean Johnston. Back-patch to v10 where the problem was introduced.

Etsuro Fujita	5c47049180	postgres_fdw: Fix incorrect handling of row movement for remote partitions. ... Commit 3d956d9562 added support for update row movement in postgres_fdw. This patch fixes the following issues introduced by that commit: * When a remote partition chosen to insert routed rows into was also an UPDATE subplan target rel that would be updated later, the UPDATE that used a direct modification plan modified those routed rows incorrectly because those routed rows were visible to the later UPDATE command. The right fix for this would be to have some way in postgres_fdw in which the later UPDATE command ignores those routed rows, but it seems hard to do so with the current infrastructure. For now throw an error in that case. * When a remote partition chosen to insert routed rows into was also an UPDATE subplan target rel, fmstate created for the UPDATE that used a non-direct modification plan was mistakenly overridden by another fmstate created for inserting those routed rows into the partition. This caused 1) server crash when the partition would be updated later, and 2) resource leak when the partition had been already updated. To avoid that, adjust the treatment of the fmstate for the inserting. As for #1, since we would also have the incorrectness issue as mentioned above, error out in that case as well. Update the docs to mention that postgres_fdw currently does not handle the case where a remote partition chosen to insert a routed row into is also an UPDATE subplan target rel that will be updated later.

Andres Freund	88e6ad3054	Fix two memory leaks around force-storing tuples in slots. ... As reported by Tom, when ExecStoreMinimalTuple() had to perform a conversion to store the minimal tuple in the slot, it forgot to respect the shouldFree flag, and leaked the tuple into the current memory context if true. Fix that by freeing the tuple in that case. Looking at the relevant code made me (Andres) realize that not having the shouldFree parameter to ExecForceStoreHeapTuple() was a bad idea. Some callers had to locally implement the necessary logic, and in one case it was missing, creating a potential per-group leak in non-hashed aggregation. The choice to not free the tuple in ExecComputeStoredGenerated() is not pretty, but not introduced by this commit - I'll start a separate discussion about it.
