Robert Haas	585e31fcb6	Don't generate fake "*SELECT*" or "*SELECT* %d" subquery aliases. ... rte->alias should point only to a user-written alias, but in these cases that principle was violated. Fixing this causes some regression test output changes: wherever rte->alias previously had a value and is now NULL, rte->eref is now set to a generated name rather than to rte->alias; and the scheme used to generate eref names differs from what we were doing for aliases. The upshot is that instead of "*SELECT*" or "*SELECT* %d", EXPLAIN will now emit "unnamed_subquery" or "unnamed_subquery_%d". But that's a reasonable descriptor, and we were already producing that in yet other cases, so this seems not too objectionable.

Michael Paquier	36aed19fd9	postgres_fdw: Use psql variables for connection parameters ... Several statements need to reference the current connection's current database name and current port value. Until now, this has been accomplished by creating dynamic SQL statements inside of a DO block, which is not as easy to parse. It also takes away some of the granularity of any error messages that might occur, making debugging harder. By capturing the connection-specific settings into psql variables, it becomes possible to write simpler SQL statements for the FDW objects. This eliminates most of DO blocks used in this test, making it a bit more readable and shorter.

Michael Paquier	783cbb6d5e	postgres_fdw: Fix tests with ANALYZE and remote sampling ... The tests fixed in this commit were changing the sampling setting of a foreign server, but then were analyzing a local table instead of a foreign table, meaning that the test was not running for its original purpose. This commit changes the ANALYZE commands to analyze the foreign table, and changes the foreign table definition to point to a valid remote table. Attempting to analyze the foreign table "analyze_ftable" would have failed before this commit, because "analyze_rtable1" is not defined on the remote side. Issue introduced by 8ad51b5f44.

Etsuro Fujita	62a1211d33	Disallow collecting transition tuples from child foreign tables. ... Commit 9e6104c66 disallowed transition tables on foreign tables, but failed to account for cases where a foreign table is a child table of a partitioned/inherited table on which transition tables exist, leading to incorrect transition tuples collected from such foreign tables for queries on the parent table triggering transition capture. This occurred not only for inherited UPDATE/DELETE but for partitioned INSERT later supported by commit 3d956d956, which should have handled it at least for the INSERT case, but didn't. To fix, modify ExecAR*Triggers to throw an error if the given relation is a foreign table requesting transition capture. Also, this commit fixes make_modifytable so that in case of an inherited UPDATE/DELETE triggering transition capture, FDWs choose normal operations to modify child foreign tables, not DirectModify; which is needed because they would otherwise skip the calls to ExecAR*Triggers at execution, causing unexpected behavior.

Tom Lane	74e121c8dc	Split up pgfdw_report_error so that we can mark it pg_noreturn. ... pgfdw_report_error has the same design fault as elog/ereport do, namely that it might or might not return depending on elevel. While those functions are too widely used to redesign, there are only about 30 call sites for pgfdw_report_error, and it's not exposed for extension use. So let's rethink it. Split it into pgfdw_report_error() which hard-wires ERROR elevel and is marked pg_noreturn, and pgfdw_report() which allows only elevels less than ERROR. (Thanks to Álvaro Herrera for suggesting this naming.) The motivation for doing this now is that in the wake of commit 80aa9848b, which removed a bunch of PG_TRYs from postgres_fdw, we're seeing more thorough flow analysis there from C compilers and Coverity. Marking pgfdw_report_error as noreturn where appropriate should help prevent false-positive complaints. We could alternatively have invented a macro wrapper similar to what we use for elog/ereport, but that code is sufficiently fragile that I didn't find it appetizing to make another copy. Since 80aa9848b already changed pgfdw_report_error's signature, this won't make back-patching any harder than it was already.

Tom Lane	0f9d4d7c12	Silence leakage complaint about postgres_fdw's InitPgFdwOptions. ... Valgrind complains that the PQconninfoOption array returned by libpq is leaked. We apparently believed that we could suppress that warning by storing that array's address in a static variable. However, modern C compilers are bright enough to optimize the static variable away. We could escalate that arms race by making the variable global. But on the whole it seems better to revise the code so that it can free libpq's result properly. The only thing that costs us is copying the parameter-name keywords; which seems like a pretty negligible cost in a function that runs at most once per process.

Tom Lane	7d8f595779	Create infrastructure to reliably prevent leakage of PGresults. ... Commit 232d8caea fixed a case where postgres_fdw could lose track of a PGresult object, resulting in a process-lifespan memory leak. But I have little faith that there aren't other potential PGresult leakages, now or in future, in the backend modules that use libpq. Therefore, this patch proposes infrastructure that makes all PGresults returned from libpq act as though they are palloc'd in the CurrentMemoryContext (with the option to relocate them to another context later). This should greatly reduce the risk of careless leaks, and it also permits removal of a bunch of code that attempted to prevent such leaks via PG_TRY blocks. This patch adds infrastructure that wraps each PGresult in a "libpqsrv_PGresult" that provides a memory context reset callback to PQclear the PGresult. Code using this abstraction is inherently memory-safe to the same extent as we are accustomed to in most backend code. Furthermore, we add some macros that automatically redirect calls of the libpq functions concerned with PGresults to use this infrastructure, so that almost no source-code changes are needed to wheel this infrastructure into place in all the backend code that uses libpq. Perhaps in future we could create similar infrastructure for PGconn objects, but there seems less need for that. This patch just creates the infrastructure and makes relevant code use it, including reverting 232d8caea in favor of this mechanism. A good deal of follow-on simplification is possible now that we don't have to be so cautious about freeing PGresults, but I'll put that in a separate patch.

Richard Guo	e2debb6438	Reduce "Var IS [NOT] NULL" quals during constant folding ... In commit b262ad440, we introduced an optimization that reduces an IS [NOT] NULL qual on a NOT NULL column to constant true or constant false, provided we can prove that the input expression of the NullTest is not nullable by any outer joins or grouping sets. This deduction happens quite late in the planner, during the distribution of quals to rels in query_planner. However, this approach has some drawbacks: we can't perform any further folding with the constant, and it turns out to be prone to bugs. Ideally, this deduction should happen during constant folding. However, the per-relation information about which columns are defined as NOT NULL is not available at that point. This information is currently collected from catalogs when building RelOptInfos for base or "other" relations. This patch moves the collection of NOT NULL attribute information for relations before pull_up_sublinks, storing it in a hash table keyed by relation OID. It then uses this information to perform the NullTest deduction for Vars during constant folding. This also makes it possible to leverage this information to pull up NOT IN subqueries. Note that this patch does not get rid of restriction_is_always_true and restriction_is_always_false. Removing them would prevent us from reducing some IS [NOT] NULL quals that we were previously able to reduce, because (a) the self-join elimination may introduce new IS NOT NULL quals after constant folding, and (b) if some outer joins are converted to inner joins, previously irreducible NullTest quals may become reducible.

Etsuro Fujita	e5a3c9d9b5	postgres_fdw: Inherit the local transaction's access/deferrable modes. ... Previously, postgres_fdw always 1) opened a remote transaction in READ WRITE mode even when the local transaction was READ ONLY, causing a READ ONLY transaction using it that references a foreign table mapped to a remote view executing a volatile function to write in the remote side, and 2) opened the remote transaction in NOT DEFERRABLE mode even when the local transaction was DEFERRABLE, causing a SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY DEFERRABLE transaction using it to abort due to a serialization failure in the remote side. To avoid these, modify postgres_fdw to open a remote transaction in the same access/deferrable modes as the local transaction.

Tom Lane	232d8caeaa	Fix memory leakage in postgres_fdw's DirectModify code path. ... postgres_fdw tries to use PG_TRY blocks to ensure that it will eventually free the PGresult created by the remote modify command. However, it's fundamentally impossible for this scheme to work reliably when there's RETURNING data, because the query could fail in between invocations of postgres_fdw's DirectModify methods. There is at least one instance of exactly this situation in the regression tests, and the ensuing session-lifespan leak is visible under Valgrind. We can improve matters by using a memory context reset callback attached to the ExecutorState context. That ensures that the PGresult will be freed when the ExecutorState context is torn down, even if control never reaches postgresEndDirectModify. I have little faith that there aren't other potential PGresult leakages in the backend modules that use libpq. So I think it'd be a good idea to apply this concept universally by creating infrastructure that attaches a reset callback to every PGresult generated in the backend. However, that seems too invasive for v18 at this point, let alone the back branches. So for the moment, apply this narrow fix that just makes DirectModify safe. I have a patch in the queue for the more general idea, but it will have to wait for v19.

Richard Guo	773db22269	Suppress unnecessary explicit sorting for EPQ mergejoin path ... When building a ForeignPath for a joinrel, if there's a possibility that EvalPlanQual will be executed, we must identify a suitable path for EPQ checks. If the outer or inner path of the chosen path is a ForeignPath representing a pushed-down join, we replace it with its fdw_outerpath to ensure that the EPQ check path consists entirely of local joins. If the chosen path is a MergePath, and its outer or inner path is a ForeignPath that is not already well enough ordered, the MergePath will have non-NIL outersortkeys or innersortkeys indicating the desired ordering to be created by an explicit Sort node. If we then replace the outer or inner path with its corresponding fdw_outerpath, and that path is already sufficiently ordered, we end up in an inconsistent state: the MergePath has non-NIL outersortkeys or innersortkeys, and its input path is already properly ordered. This inconsistency can result in an Assert failure or the addition of a redundant Sort node. To fix, check if the new outer or inner path of a MergePath is already properly sorted, and set its outersortkeys or innersortkeys to NIL if so.

David Rowley	d69d45a5a9	Speedup child EquivalenceMember lookup in planner ... When planning queries to partitioned tables, we clone all EquivalenceMembers belonging to the partitioned table into em_is_child EquivalenceMembers for each non-pruned partition. For partitioned tables with large numbers of partitions, this meant the ec_members list could become large and code searching that list would become slow. Effectively, the more partitions which were present, the more searches needed to be performed for operations such as find_ec_member_matching_expr() during create_plan() and the more partitions present, the longer these searches would take, i.e., a quadratic slowdown. To fix this, here we adjust how we store EquivalenceMembers for em_is_child members. Instead of storing these directly in ec_members, these are now stored in a new array of Lists in the EquivalenceClass, which is indexed by the relid. When we want to find EquivalenceMembers belonging to a certain child relation, we can narrow the search to the array element for that relation. To make EquivalenceMember lookup easier and to reduce the amount of code change, this commit provides a pair of functions to allow iteration over the EquivalenceMembers of an EC which also handles finding the child members, if required. Callers that never need to look at child members can remain using the foreach loop over ec_members, which will now often be faster due to only parent-level members being stored there. The actual performance increases here are highly dependent on the number of partitions and the query being planned. Performance increases can be visible with as few as 8 partitions, but the speedup is marginal for such low numbers of partitions. The speedups become much more visible with a few dozen to hundreds of partitions. With some tested queries using 56 partitions, the planner was around 3x faster than before. For use cases with thousands of partitions, these are likely to become significantly faster. Some testing has shown planner speedups of 60x or more with 8192 partitions.

There was some discussion about using semantic versioning conventions, but that doesn't seem terribly helpful for modules with no SQL-level presence; and for those that do have SQL objects, we typically expect them to support multiple revisions of the SQL definitions, so it'd still not be very helpful.

Peter Eisentraut	76563f88cf	postgres_fdw: improve security checks ... SCRAM pass-through should not bypass the FDW security check as it was implemented for postgres_fdw in commit 761c79508e. This commit improves the security check by adding new SCRAM pass-through checks to ensure that the required SCRAM connection options are not overwritten by the user mapping or foreign server options. This is meant to match the security requirements for a password-using connection. Since libpq has no SCRAM-specific equivalent of PQconnectionUsedPassword(), we enforce this instead by making the use_scram_passthrough option of postgres_fdw imply require_auth=scram-sha-256. This means that if use_scram_passthrough is set, some situations that might otherwise have worked are preempted, for example GSSAPI with delegated credentials. This could be enhanced in the future if there is desire for more flexibility.

Peter Eisentraut	618c64ffd3	Revert workarounds for -Wmissing-braces false positives on old GCC ... We have collected several instances of a workaround for GCC bug 53119, which caused false-positive compiler warnings. This bug has long been fixed, but was still seen on the buildfarm, most recently on lapwing with gcc (Debian 4.7.2-5). (The GCC bug tracker mentions that a fix was backported to 4.7.4 and 4.8.3.) That compiler no longer runs warning-free since commit 6fdd5d9563, so we don't need to keep these workarounds.

Robert Haas	95dbd827f2	EXPLAIN: Always use two fractional digits for row counts. ... Commit ddb17e387a attempted to avoid confusing users by displaying digits after the decimal point only when nloops > 1, since it's impossible to have a fraction row count after a single iteration. However, this made the regression tests unstable since parallal queries will have nloops>1 for all nodes below the Gather or Gather Merge in normal cases, but if the workers don't start in time and the leader finishes all the work, they will suddenly have nloops==1, making it unpredictable whether the digits after the decimal point would be displayed or not. Although 44cbba9a7f seemed to fix the immediate failures, it may still be the case that there are lower-probability failures elsewhere in the regression tests. Various fixes are possible here. For example, it has previously been proposed that we should try to display the digits after the decimal point only if rows/nloops is an integer, but currently rows is storead as a float so it's not theoretically an exact quantity -- precision could be lost in extreme cases. It has also been proposed that we should try to display the digits after the decimal point only if we're under some sort of construct that could potentially cause looping regardless of whether it actually does. While such ideas are not without merit, this patch adopts the much simpler solution of always display two decimal digits. If that approach stands up to scrutiny from the buildfarm and human users, it spares us the trouble of doing anything more complex; if not, we can reassess. This commit incidentally reverts 44cbba9a7f, which should no longer be needed.

Peter Eisentraut	83ea6c5402	Virtual generated columns ... This adds a new variant of generated columns that are computed on read (like a view, unlike the existing stored generated columns, which are computed on write, like a materialized view). The syntax for the column definition is ... GENERATED ALWAYS AS (...) VIRTUAL and VIRTUAL is also optional. VIRTUAL is the default rather than STORED to match various other SQL products. (The SQL standard makes no specification about this, but it also doesn't know about VIRTUAL or STORED.) (Also, virtual views are the default, rather than materialized views.) Virtual generated columns are stored in tuples as null values. (A very early version of this patch had the ambition to not store them at all. But so much stuff breaks or gets confused if you have tuples where a column in the middle is completely missing. This is a compromise, and it still saves space over being forced to use stored generated columns. If we ever find a way to improve this, a bit of pg_upgrade cleverness could allow for upgrades to a newer scheme.) The capabilities and restrictions of virtual generated columns are mostly the same as for stored generated columns. In some cases, this patch keeps virtual generated columns more restricted than they might technically need to be, to keep the two kinds consistent. Some of that could maybe be relaxed later after separate careful considerations. Some functionality that is currently not supported, but could possibly be added as incremental features, some easier than others: - index on or using a virtual column - hence also no unique constraints on virtual columns - extended statistics on virtual columns - foreign-key constraints on virtual columns - not-null constraints on virtual columns (check constraints are supported) - ALTER TABLE / DROP EXPRESSION - virtual column cannot have domain type - virtual columns are not supported in logical replication The tests in generated_virtual.sql have been copied over from generated_stored.sql with the keyword replaced. This way we can make sure the behavior is mostly aligned, and the differences can be visible. Some tests for currently not supported features are currently commented out.

Tom Lane	0da39aa766	Handle default NULL insertion a little better. ... If a column is omitted in an INSERT, and there's no column default, the code in preptlist.c generates a NULL Const to be inserted. Furthermore, if the column is of a domain type, we wrap the Const in CoerceToDomain, so as to throw a run-time error if the domain has a NOT NULL constraint. That's fine as far as it goes, but there are two problems: 1. We're being sloppy about the type/typmod that the Const is labeled with. It really should have the domain's base type/typmod, since it's the input to CoerceToDomain not the output. This can result in coerce_to_domain inserting a useless length-coercion function (useless because it's being applied to a null). The coercion would typically get const-folded away later, but it'd be better not to create it in the first place. 2. We're not applying expression preprocessing (specifically, eval_const_expressions) to the resulting expression tree. The planner's primary expression-preprocessing pass already happened, so that means the length coercion step and CoerceToDomain node miss preprocessing altogether. This is at the least inefficient, since it means the length coercion and CoerceToDomain will actually be executed for each inserted row, though they could be const-folded away in most cases. Worse, it seems possible that missing preprocessing for the length coercion could result in an invalid plan (for example, due to failing to perform default-function-argument insertion). I'm not aware of any live bug of that sort with core datatypes, and it might be unreachable for extension types as well because of restrictions of CREATE CAST, but I'm not entirely convinced that it's unreachable. Hence, it seems worth back-patching the fix (although I only went back to v14, as the patch doesn't apply cleanly at all in v13). There are several places in the rewriter that are building null domain constants the same way as preptlist.c. While those are before the planner and hence don't have any reachable bug, they're still applying a length coercion that will be const-folded away later, uselessly wasting cycles. Hence, make a utility routine that all of these places can call to do it right. Making this code more careful about the typmod assigned to the generated NULL constant has visible but cosmetic effects on some of the plans shown in contrib/postgres_fdw's regression tests.

Tom Lane	c431986de1	postgres_fdw: re-issue cancel requests a few times if necessary. ... Despite the best efforts of commit 0e5c82380, we're still seeing occasional failures of postgres_fdw's query_cancel test in the buildfarm. Investigation suggests that its 100ms timeout is still not enough to reliably ensure that the remote side starts the query before receiving the cancel request --- and if it hasn't, it will just discard the request because it's idle. We discussed allowing a cancel request to kill the next-received query, but that would have wide and perhaps unpleasant side-effects. What seems safer is to make postgres_fdw do what a human user would likely do, which is issue another cancel request if the first one didn't seem to do anything. We'll keep the same overall 30 second grace period before concluding things are broken, but issue additional cancel requests after 1 second, then 2 more seconds, then 4, then 8. (The next one in series is 16 seconds, but we'll hit the 30 second timeout before that.) Having done that, revert the timeout in query_cancel.sql to 10 ms. That will still be enough on most machines, most of the time, for the remote query to start; but now we're intentionally risking the race condition occurring sometimes in the buildfarm, so that the repeat-cancel code path will get some testing. As before, back-patch to v17. We might eventually contemplate back-patching this further, and/or adding similar logic to dblink. But given the lack of field complaints to date, this feels like mostly an exercise in test case stabilization, so v17 is enough.

David Rowley	5983a4cffc	Introduce CompactAttribute array in TupleDesc, take 2 ... The new compact_attrs array stores a few select fields from FormData_pg_attribute in a more compact way, using only 16 bytes per column instead of the 104 bytes that FormData_pg_attribute uses. Using CompactAttribute allows performance-critical operations such as tuple deformation to be performed without looking at the FormData_pg_attribute element in TupleDesc which means fewer cacheline accesses. For some workloads, tuple deformation can be the most CPU intensive part of processing the query. Some testing with 16 columns on a table where the first column is variable length showed around a 10% increase in transactions per second for an OLAP type query performing aggregation on the 16th column. However, in certain cases, the increases were much higher, up to ~25% on one AMD Zen4 machine. This also makes pg_attribute.attcacheoff redundant. A follow-on commit will remove it, thus shrinking the FormData_pg_attribute struct by 4 bytes.
