Tom Lane	53fe7e6cb8	Harden postgres_fdw tests against unexpected cache flushes. ... postgres_fdw will close its remote session if an sinval cache reset occurs, since it's possible that that means some FDW parameters changed. We had two tests that were trying to ensure that the session remains alive by setting debug_discard_caches = 0; but that's not sufficient. Even though the tests seem stable enough in the buildfarm, they flap a lot under CI. In the first test, which is checking the ability to recover from a lost connection, we can stabilize the results by just not caring whether pg_terminate_backend() finds a victim backend. If a reset did happen, there won't be a session to terminate anymore, but the test can proceed anyway. (Arguably, we are then not testing the unintentional-disconnect case, but as long as that scenario is exercised in most runs I think it's fine; testing the reset-driven case is of value too.) In the second test, which is trying to verify the application_name displayed in pg_stat_activity by a remote session, we had a race condition in that the remote session might go away before we can fetch its pg_stat_activity entry. We can close that race and make the test more certainly test what it intends to by arranging things so that the remote session itself fetches its pg_stat_activity entry (based on PID rather than a somewhat-circular assumption about the application name). Both tests now demonstrably pass under debug_discard_caches = 1, so we can remove that hack. Back-patch into relevant back branches.

Tom Lane	3bef56e116	Invent "join domains" to replace the below_outer_join hack. ... EquivalenceClasses are now understood as applying within a "join domain", which is a set of inner-joined relations (possibly underneath an outer join). We no longer need to treat an EC from below an outer join as a second-class citizen. I have hopes of eventually being able to treat outer-join clauses via EquivalenceClasses, by means of only applying deductions within the EC's join domain. There are still problems in the way of that, though, so for now the reconsider_outer_join_clause logic is still here. I haven't been able to get rid of RestrictInfo.is_pushed_down either, but I wonder if that could be recast using JoinDomains. I had to hack one test case in postgres_fdw.sql to make it still test what it was meant to, because postgres_fdw is inconsistent about how it deals with quals containing non-shippable expressions; see https://postgr.es/m/1691374.1671659838@sss.pgh.pa.us. That should be improved, but I don't think it's within the scope of this patch series. Patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo for review.

Tom Lane	47bb9db759	Get rid of the "new" and "old" entries in a view's rangetable. ... The rule system needs "old" and/or "new" pseudo-RTEs in rule actions that are ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Historically it's put such entries into the ON SELECT rules of views as well, but those are really quite vestigial. The only thing we've used them for is to carry the view's relid forward to AcquireExecutorLocks (so that we can re-lock the view to verify it hasn't changed before re-using a plan) and to carry its relid and permissions data forward to execution-time permissions checks. What we can do instead of that is to retain these fields of the RTE_RELATION RTE for the view even after we convert it to an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE. This requires a tiny amount of extra complication in the planner and AcquireExecutorLocks, but on the other hand we can get rid of the logic that moves that data from one place to another. The principal immediate benefit of doing this, aside from a small saving in the pg_rewrite data for views, is that these pseudo-RTEs no longer trigger ruleutils.c's heuristic about qualifying variable names when the rangetable's length is more than 1. That results in quite a number of small simplifications in regression test outputs, which are all to the good IMO. Bump catversion because we need to dump a few more fields of RTE_SUBQUERY RTEs. While those will always be zeroes anyway in stored rules (because we'd never populate them until query rewrite) they are useful for debugging, and it seems like we'd better make sure to transmit such RTEs accurately in plans sent to parallel workers. I don't think the executor actually examines these fields after startup, but someday it might. This is a second attempt at committing 1b4d280ea. The difference from the first time is that now we can add some filtering rules to AdjustUpgrade.pm to allow cross-version upgrade testing to pass despite all the cosmetic changes in CREATE VIEW outputs.

Tom Lane	8d83a5d0a2	Remove redundant grouping and DISTINCT columns. ... Avoid explicitly grouping by columns that we know are redundant for sorting, for example we need group by only one of x and y in SELECT ... WHERE x = y GROUP BY x, y This comes up more often than you might think, as shown by the changes in the regression tests. It's nearly free to detect too, since we are just piggybacking on the existing logic that detects redundant pathkeys. (In some of the existing plans that change, it's visible that a sort step preceding the grouping step already didn't bother to sort by the redundant column, making the old plan a bit silly-looking.) To do this, build processed_groupClause and processed_distinctClause lists that omit any provably-redundant sort items, and consult those not the originals where relevant. This means that within the planner, one should usually consult root->processed_groupClause or root->processed_distinctClause if one wants to know which columns are to be grouped on; but to check whether grouping or distinct-ing is happening at all, check non-NIL-ness of parse->groupClause or parse->distinctClause. This is comparable to longstanding rules about handling the HAVING clause, so I don't think it'll be a huge maintenance problem. nodeAgg.c also needs minor mods, because it's now possible to generate AGG_PLAIN and AGG_SORTED Agg nodes with zero grouping columns.

Tomas Vondra	8ad51b5f44	Sample postgres_fdw tables remotely during ANALYZE ... When collecting ANALYZE sample on foreign tables, postgres_fdw fetched all rows and performed the sampling locally. For large tables this means transferring and immediately discarding large amounts of data. This commit allows the sampling to be performed on the remote server, transferring only the much smaller sample. The sampling is performed using the built-in TABLESAMPLE methods (system, bernoulli) or random() function, depending on the remote server version. Remote sampling can be enabled by analyze_sampling on the foreign server and/or foreign table, with supported values 'off', 'auto', 'system', 'bernoulli' and 'random'. The default value is 'auto' which uses either 'bernoulli' (TABLESAMPLE method) or 'random' (for remote servers without TABLESAMPLE support).	3 years ago

Etsuro Fujita	594f8d3776	Allow batching of inserts during cross-partition updates. ... Commit 927f453a9 disallowed batching added by commit b663a4136 to be used for the inserts performed as part of cross-partition updates of partitioned tables, mainly because the previous code in nodeModifyTable.c couldn't handle pending inserts into foreign-table partitions that are also UPDATE target partitions. But we don't have such a limitation anymore (cf. commit ffbb7e65a), so let's allow for this by removing from execPartition.c the restriction added by commit 927f453a9 that batching is only allowed if the query command type is CMD_INSERT. In postgres_fdw, since commit 86dc90056 changed it to effectively disable cross-partition updates in the case where a foreign-table partition chosen to insert rows into is also an UPDATE target partition, allow batching in the case where a foreign-table partition chosen to do so is *not* also an UPDATE target partition. This is enabled by the "batch_size" option added by commit b663a4136, which is disabled by default. This patch also adjusts the test case added by commit 927f453a9 to confirm that the inserts performed as part of a cross-partition update of a partitioned table indeed uses batching.

David Rowley	4a29eabd1d	Remove pessimistic cost penalization from Incremental Sort ... When incremental sorts were added in v13 a 1.5x pessimism factor was added to the cost modal. Seemingly this was done because the cost modal only has an estimate of the total number of input rows and the number of presorted groups. It assumes that the input rows will be evenly distributed throughout the presorted groups. The 1.5x pessimism factor was added to slightly reduce the likelihood of incremental sorts being used in the hope to avoid performance regressions where an incremental sort plan was picked and turned out slower due to a large skew in the number of rows in the presorted groups. An additional quirk with the path generation code meant that we could consider both a sort and an incremental sort on paths with presorted keys. This meant that with the pessimism factor, it was possible that we opted to perform a sort rather than an incremental sort when the given path had presorted keys. Here we remove the 1.5x pessimism factor to allow incremental sorts to have a fairer chance at being chosen against a full sort. Previously we would generally create a sort path on the cheapest input path (if that wasn't sorted already) and incremental sort paths on any path which had presorted keys. This meant that if the cheapest input path wasn't completely sorted but happened to have presorted keys, we would create a full sort path *and* an incremental sort path on that input path. Here we change this logic so that if there are presorted keys, we only create an incremental sort path, and create sort paths only when a full sort is required. Both the removal of the cost pessimism factor and the changes made to the path generation make it more likely that incremental sorts will now be chosen. That, of course, as with teaching the planner any new tricks, means an increased likelihood that the planner will perform an incremental sort when it's not the best method. Our standard escape hatch for these cases is an enable_* GUC. enable_incremental_sort already exists for this. This came out of a report by Pavel Luzanov where he mentioned that the master branch was choosing to perform a Seq Scan -> Sort -> Group Aggregate for his query with an ORDER BY aggregate function. The v15 plan for his query performed an Index Scan -> Group Aggregate, of course, the aggregate performed the final sort internally in nodeAgg.c for the aggregate's ORDER BY. The ideal plan would have been to use the index, which provided partially sorted input then use an incremental sort to provide the aggregate with the sorted input. This was not being chosen due to the pessimism in the incremental sort cost modal, so here we remove that and rationalize the path generation so that sort and incremental sort plans don't have to needlessly compete. We assume that it's senseless to ever use a full sort on a given input path where an incremental sort can be performed.

Etsuro Fujita	ffbb7e65a8	Fix handling of pending inserts in nodeModifyTable.c. ... Commit b663a4136, which allowed FDWs to INSERT rows in bulk, added to nodeModifyTable.c code to flush pending inserts to the foreign-table result relation(s) before completing processing of the ModifyTable node, but the code failed to take into account the case where the INSERT query has modifying CTEs, leading to incorrect results. Also, that commit failed to flush pending inserts before firing BEFORE ROW triggers so that rows are visible to such triggers. In that commit we scanned through EState's es_tuple_routing_result_relations or es_opened_result_relations list to find the foreign-table result relations to which pending inserts are flushed, but that would be inefficient in some cases. So to fix, 1) add a List member to EState to record the insert-pending result relations, and 2) modify nodeModifyTable.c so that it adds the foreign-table result relation to the list in ExecInsert() if appropriate, and flushes pending inserts properly using the list where needed. While here, fix a copy-and-pasteo in a comment in ExecBatchInsert(), which was added by that commit. Back-patch to v14 where that commit appeared.

Tom Lane	a5fc46414d	Avoid making commutatively-duplicate clauses in EquivalenceClasses. ... When we decide we need to make a derived clause equating a.x and b.y, we already will re-use a previously-made clause "a.x = b.y". But we might instead have "b.y = a.x", which is perfectly usable because equivclass.c has never promised anything about the operand order in clauses it builds. Saving construction of a new RestrictInfo doesn't matter all that much in itself --- but because we cache selectivity estimates and so on per-RestrictInfo, there's a possibility of saving a fair amount of duplicative effort downstream. Hence, check for commutative matches as well as direct ones when seeing if we have a pre-existing clause. This changes the visible clause order in several regression test cases, but they're all clearly-insignificant changes. Checking for the reverse operand order is simple enough, but if we wanted to check for operator OID match we'd need to call get_commutator here, which is not so cheap. I concluded that we don't really need the operator check anyway, so I just removed it. It's unlikely that an opfamily contains more than one applicable operator for a given pair of operand datatypes; and if it does they had better give the same answers, so there seems little need to insist that we use exactly the one select_equality_operator chose. Using the current core regression suite as a test case, I see this change reducing the number of new join clauses built by create_join_clause from 9673 to 5142 (out of 26652 calls). So not quite 50% savings, but pretty close to it. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/78062.1666735746@sss.pgh.pa.us	3 years ago

Etsuro Fujita	97da48246d	Allow batch insertion during COPY into a foreign table. ... Commit 3d956d956 allowed the COPY, but it's done by inserting individual rows to the foreign table, so it can be inefficient due to the overhead caused by each round-trip to the foreign server. To improve performance of the COPY in such a case, this patch allows batch insertion, by extending the multi-insert machinery in CopyFrom() to the foreign-table case so that we insert multiple rows to the foreign table at once using the FDW callback routine added by commit b663a4136. This patch also allows this for postgres_fdw. It is enabled by the "batch_size" option added by commit b663a4136, which is disabled by default. When doing batch insertion, we update progress of the COPY command after performing the FDW callback routine, to count rows not suppressed by the FDW as well as a BEFORE ROW INSERT trigger. For consistency, this patch changes the timing of updating it for plain tables: previously, we updated it immediately after adding each row to the multi-insert buffer, but we do so only after writing the rows stored in the buffer out to the table using table_multi_insert(), which I think would be consistent even with non-batching mode, because in that mode we update it after writing each row out to the table using table_tuple_insert().

Tom Lane	f4c7c410ee	Revert "Optimize order of GROUP BY keys". ... This reverts commit db0d67db24 and several follow-on fixes. The idea of making a cost-based choice of the order of the sorting columns is not fundamentally unsound, but it requires cost information and data statistics that we don't really have. For example, relying on procost to distinguish the relative costs of different sort comparators is pretty pointless so long as most such comparator functions are labeled with cost 1.0. Moreover, estimating the number of comparisons done by Quicksort requires more than just an estimate of the number of distinct values in the input: you also need some idea of the sizes of the larger groups, if you want an estimate that's good to better than a factor of three or so. That's data that's often unknown or not very reliable. Worse, to arrive at estimates of the number of calls made to the lower-order-column comparison functions, the code needs to make estimates of the numbers of distinct values of multiple columns, which are necessarily even less trustworthy than per-column stats. Even if all the inputs are perfectly reliable, the cost algorithm as-implemented cannot offer useful information about how to order sorting columns beyond the point at which the average group size is estimated to drop to 1. Close inspection of the code added by db0d67db2 shows that there are also multiple small bugs. These could have been fixed, but there's not much point if we don't trust the estimates to be accurate in-principle. Finally, the changes in cost_sort's behavior made for very large changes (often a factor of 2 or so) in the cost estimates for all sorting operations, not only those for multi-column GROUP BY. That naturally changes plan choices in many situations, and there's precious little evidence to show that the changes are for the better. Given the above doubts about whether the new estimates are really trustworthy, it's hard to summon much confidence that these changes are better on the average. Since we're hard up against the release deadline for v15, let's revert these changes for now. We can always try again later. Note: in v15, I left T_PathKeyInfo in place in nodes.h even though it's unreferenced. Removing it would be an ABI break, and it seems a bit late in the release cycle for that.

Etsuro Fujita	9320cfdd06	postgres_fdw: Avoid 'variable not found in subplan target list' error. ... The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error. The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan.

Etsuro Fujita	82593b9a3d	postgres_fdw: Disable batch insertion when there are WCO constraints. ... When inserting a view referencing a foreign table that has WITH CHECK OPTION constraints, in single-insert mode postgres_fdw retrieves the data that was actually inserted on the remote side so that the WITH CHECK OPTION constraints are enforced with the data locally, but in batch-insert mode it cannot currently retrieve the data (except for the row first inserted through the view), resulting in enforcing the WITH CHECK OPTION constraints with the data passed from the core (except for the first-inserted row), which led to incorrect results when inserting into a view referencing a foreign table in which a remote BEFORE ROW INSERT trigger changes the rows inserted through the view so that they violate the view's WITH CHECK OPTION constraint. Also, the query inserting into the view caused an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds. Fix these by disabling batch insertion when inserting into such a view.

David Rowley	1349d2790b	Improve performance of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates ... ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggreagtes have, since implemented in Postgres, been executed by always performing a sort in nodeAgg.c to sort the tuples in the current group into the correct order before calling the transition function on the sorted tuples. This was not great as often there might be an index that could have provided pre-sorted input and allowed the transition functions to be called as the rows come in, rather than having to store them in a tuplestore in order to sort them once all the tuples for the group have arrived. Here we change the planner so it requests a path with a sort order which supports the most amount of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate functions and add new code to the executor to allow it to support the processing of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates where the tuples are already sorted in the correct order. Since there can be many ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates in any given query level, it's very possible that we can't find an order that suits all of these aggregates. The sort order that the planner chooses is simply the one that suits the most aggregate functions. We take the most strictly sorted variation of each order and see how many aggregate functions can use that, then we try again with the order of the remaining aggregates to see if another order would suit more aggregate functions. For example: SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY a,b) ... would request the sort order to be {a, b} because {a} is a subset of the sort order of {a,b}, but; SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY c) ... would just pick a plan ordered by {a} (we give precedence to aggregates which are earlier in the targetlist). SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY b),agg3(a ORDER BY b) ... would choose to order by {b} since two aggregates suit that vs just one that requires input ordered by {a}.

Tom Lane	31e5b50292	postgres_fdw: be more wary about shippability of reg* constants. ... Don't consider a constant of regconfig or other reg* types to be shippable unless it refers to a built-in object, or an object in an extension that's been marked shippable. Without this restriction, we're too likely to send a constant that will fail to parse on the remote server. For the regconfig type only, consider OIDs up to 16383 to be "built in", rather than the normal cutoff of 9999. Otherwise the initdb-created text search configurations will be considered unshippable, which is unlikely to make anyone happy. It's possible that this new restriction will de-optimize queries that were working satisfactorily before. Users can restore any lost performance by making sure that objects that can be expected to exist on the remote side are in shippable extensions. However, that's not a change that people are likely to be happy about having to make after a minor-release update.

Etsuro Fujita	5c854e7a2c	Disable asynchronous execution if using gating Result nodes. ... mark_async_capable_plan(), which is called from create_append_plan() to determine whether subplans are async-capable, failed to take into account that the given subplan created from a given subpath might include a gating Result node if the subpath is a SubqueryScanPath or ForeignPath, causing a segmentation fault there when the subplan created from a SubqueryScanPath includes the Result node, or causing ExecAsyncRequest() to throw an error about an unrecognized node type when the subplan created from a ForeignPath includes the Result node, because in the latter case the Result node was unintentionally considered as async-capable, but we don't currently support executing Result nodes asynchronously. Fix by modifying mark_async_capable_plan() to disable asynchronous execution in such cases. Also, adjust code in the ProjectionPath case in mark_async_capable_plan(), for consistency with other cases, and adjust/improve comments there. is_async_capable_path() added in commit 27e1f1456, which was rewritten to mark_async_capable_plan() in a later commit, has the same issue, causing the error at execution mentioned above, so back-patch to v14 where the aforesaid commit went in.

Tom Lane	f3dd9fe1dd	Fix postgres_fdw to check shippability of sort clauses properly. ... postgres_fdw would push ORDER BY clauses to the remote side without verifying that the sort operator is safe to ship. Moreover, it failed to print a suitable USING clause if the sort operator isn't default for the sort expression's type. The net result of this is that the remote sort might not have anywhere near the semantics we expect, which'd be disastrous for locally-performed merge joins in particular. We addressed similar issues in the context of ORDER BY within an aggregate function call in commit 7012b132d, but failed to notice that query-level ORDER BY was broken. Thus, much of the necessary logic already existed, but it requires refactoring to be usable in both cases. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Tomas Vondra	db0d67db24	Optimize order of GROUP BY keys ... When evaluating a query with a multi-column GROUP BY clause using sort, the cost may be heavily dependent on the order in which the keys are compared when building the groups. Grouping does not imply any ordering, so we're allowed to compare the keys in arbitrary order, and a Hash Agg leverages this. But for Group Agg, we simply compared keys in the order as specified in the query. This commit explores alternative ordering of the keys, trying to find a cheaper one. In principle, we might generate grouping paths for all permutations of the keys, and leave the rest to the optimizer. But that might get very expensive, so we try to pick only a couple interesting orderings based on both local and global information. When planning the grouping path, we explore statistics (number of distinct values, cost of the comparison function) for the keys and reorder them to minimize comparison costs. Intuitively, it may be better to perform more expensive comparisons (for complex data types etc.) last, because maybe the cheaper comparisons will be enough. Similarly, the higher the cardinality of a key, the lower the probability we’ll need to compare more keys. The patch generates and costs various orderings, picking the cheapest ones. The ordering of group keys may interact with other parts of the query, some of which may not be known while planning the grouping. E.g. there may be an explicit ORDER BY clause, or some other ordering-dependent operation, higher up in the query, and using the same ordering may allow using either incremental sort or even eliminate the sort entirely. The patch generates orderings and picks those minimizing the comparison cost (for various pathkeys), and then adds orderings that might be useful for operations higher up in the plan (ORDER BY, etc.). Finally, it always keeps the ordering specified in the query, on the assumption the user might have additional insights. This introduces a new GUC enable_group_by_reordering, so that the optimization may be disabled if needed. The original patch was proposed by Teodor Sigaev, and later improved and reworked by Dmitry Dolgov.

Etsuro Fujita	9e283fc85d	postgres_fdw: Fix handling of a pending asynchronous request in postgresReScanForeignScan(). ... Commit 27e1f1456 failed to process a pending asynchronous request made for a given ForeignScan node in postgresReScanForeignScan() (if any) in cases where we would only reset the next_tuple counter in that function, contradicting the assumption that there should be no pending asynchronous requests that have been made for async-capable subplans for the parent Append node after ReScan. This led to an assert failure in an assert-enabled build. I think this would also lead to mis-rewinding the cursor in that function in the case where we have already fetched one batch for the ForeignScan node and the asynchronous request has been made for the second batch, because even in that case we would just reset the counter when called from that function, so we would fail to execute MOVE BACKWARD ALL.

Fujii Masao	353aa01687	postgres_fdw: Add regression test for postgres_fdw.application_name GUC. ... Commit 449ab63505 added postgres_fdw.application_name GUC that specifies a value for application_name configuration parameter used when postgres_fdw establishes a connection to a foreign server. Also commit 6e0cb3dec1 allowed it to include escape sequences. Both commits added the regression tests for the GUC, but those tests were reverted by commits 98dbef90eb and 5e64ad3697 because they were unstable and caused some buildfarm members to report the failure. This is the third try to add the regression test for postgres_fdw.application_name GUC. One of issues to make the test unstable was to have used postgres_fdw_disconnect_all() to close the existing remote connections. The test expected that the remote connection and its corresponding backend at the remote server disappeared just after postgres_fdw_disconnect_all() was executed, but it could take a bit time for them to disappear. To make sure that they exit, this commit makes the test use pg_terminate_backend() with the timeout at the remote server, instead. If the timeout is set to greater than zero, this function waits until they are actually terminated (or until the given time has passed). Another issue was that the test didn't take into consideration the case where postgres_fdw.application_name containing some escape sequences was converted to the string larger than NAMEDATALEN. In this case it was truncated to less than NAMEDATALEN when it's passed to the remote server, but the test expected wrongly that full string of application_name was always viewable. This commit changes the test so that it can handle that case.

Michael Paquier	2e577c9446	Remove assertion for ALTER TABLE .. DETACH PARTITION CONCURRENTLY ... One code path related to this flavor of ALTER TABLE was checking that the relation to detach has to be a normal table or a partitioned table, which would fail if using the command with a different relation kind. Views, sequences and materialized views cannot be part of a partition tree, so these would cause the command to fail anyway, but the assertion was triggered. Foreign tables can be part of a partition tree, and again the assertion would have failed. The simplest solution is just to remove this assertion, so as we get the same failure as the non-concurrent code path.

David Rowley	e502150f7d	Allow Memoize to operate in binary comparison mode ... 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.

Tom Lane	f8abb0f5e1	postgres_fdw: suppress casts on constants in limited cases. ... When deparsing an expression of the form "remote_var OP constant", we'd normally apply a cast to the constant to make sure that the remote parser thinks it's of the same type we do. However, doing so is often not necessary, and it causes problems if the user has intentionally declared the local column as being of a different type than the remote column. A plausible use-case for that is using text to represent a type that's an enum on the remote side. A comparison on such a column will get shipped as "var = 'foo'::text", which blows up on the remote side because there's no enum = text operator. But if we simply leave off the explicit cast, the comparison will do exactly what the user wants. It's possible to do this without major risk of semantic problems, by relying on the longstanding parser heuristic that "if one operand of an operator is of type unknown, while the other one has a known type, assume that the unknown operand is also of that type". Hence, this patch leaves off the cast only if (a) the operator inputs have the same type locally; (b) the constant will print as a string literal or NULL, both of which are initially taken as type unknown; and (c) the non-Const input is a plain foreign Var. Rule (c) guarantees that the remote parser will know the type of the non-Const input; moreover, it means that if this cast-omission does cause any semantic surprises, that can only happen in cases where the local column has a different type than the remote column. That wasn't guaranteed to work anyway, and this patch should represent a net usability gain for such cases. One point that I (tgl) remain slightly uncomfortable with is that we will ignore an implicit RelabelType when deciding if the non-Const input is a plain Var. That makes it a little squishy to argue that the remote should resolve the Const as being of the same type as its Var, because then our Const is not the same type as our Var. However, if we don't do that, then this hack won't work as desired if the user chooses to use varchar rather than text to represent some remote column. That seems useful, so do it like this for now. We might have to give up the RelabelType-ignoring bit if any problems surface. Dian Fay, with review and kibitzing by me Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/C9LU294V7K4F.34LRRDU449O45@lamia	4 years ago
Fujii Masao	5fedf7417b	Improve HINT message that FDW reports when there are no valid options. ... The foreign data wrapper's validator function provides a HINT message with list of valid options for the object specified in CREATE or ALTER command, when the option given in the command is invalid. Previously postgresql_fdw_validator() and the validator functions for postgres_fdw and dblink_fdw worked in that way even there were no valid options in the object, which could lead to the HINT message with empty list (because there were no valid options). For example, ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER postgres_fdw OPTIONS (format 'csv') reported the following ERROR and HINT messages. This behavior was confusing. ERROR: invalid option "format" HINT: Valid options in this context are: There is no such issue in file_fdw.

Etsuro Fujita	1ec7fca859	postgres_fdw: Fix handling of pending asynchronous requests. ... A pending asynchronous request is handled by process_pending_request(), which previously not only processed an in-progress remote query but performed ExecForeignScan() to produce a tuple to return to the local server asynchronously from the result of the remote query. But that led to a server crash when executing a query or led to an "InstrStartNode called twice in a row" or "InstrEndLoop called on running node" failure when doing EXPLAIN ANALYZE of it, in cases where the plan tree for it contained multiple async-capable nodes accessing the same initplan/subplan that contained multiple async-capable nodes scanning the same foreign tables as for the parent async-capable nodes, as reported by Andrey Lepikhov. The reason is that the second step in process_pending_request() invoked when executing the initplan/subplan for one of the parent async-capable nodes caused recursive execution of the initplan/subplan for another of the parent async-capable nodes. To fix, split process_pending_request() into the two steps and postpone the second step until ForeignAsyncConfigureWait() is called for each of the pending asynchronous requests. Also, in ExecAppendAsyncEventWait() we assumed that FDWs would register at least one wait event in a WaitEventSet created there when they were called from ForeignAsyncConfigureWait() in that function, but allow FDWs to register zero wait events in the WaitEventSet; modify ExecAppendAsyncEventWait() to just return in that case.
