Tom Lane	f09346a9c6	Refactor planner's header files. ... Create a new header optimizer/optimizer.h, which exposes just the planner functions that can be used "at arm's length", without need to access Paths or the other planner-internal data structures defined in nodes/relation.h. This is intended to provide the whole planner API seen by most of the rest of the system; although FDWs still need to use additional stuff, and more thought is also needed about just what selfuncs.c should rely on. The main point of doing this now is to limit the amount of new #include baggage that will be needed by "planner support functions", which I expect to introduce later, and which will be in relevant datatype modules rather than anywhere near the planner. This commit just moves relevant declarations into optimizer.h from other header files (a couple of which go away because everything got moved), and adjusts #include lists to match. There's further cleanup that could be done if we want to decide that some stuff being exposed by optimizer.h doesn't belong in the planner at all, but I'll leave that for another day.

Tomas Vondra	36a1281f86	Separate per-batch and per-tuple memory contexts in COPY ... In batching mode, COPY was using the same (per-tuple) memory context for allocations with longer lifetime. This was confusing but harmless, until commit 31f3817402 added COPY FROM ... WHERE feature, introducing a risk of memory leak. The "per-tuple" memory context was reset only when starting new batch, but as the rows may be filtered out by the WHERE clauses, that may not happen at all. The WHERE clause however has to be evaluated for all rows, before filtering them out. This commit separates the per-tuple and per-batch contexts, removing the ambiguity. Expressions (both defaults and WHERE clause) are evaluated in the per-tuple context, while tuples are formed in the batch context. This allows resetting the contexts at appropriate times. The main complexity is related to partitioning, in which case we need to reset the batch context after forming the tuple (which happens before routing to leaf partition). Instead of switching between two contexts as before, we simply copy the last tuple aside, reset the context and then copy the tuple back. The performance impact is negligible, and juggling with two contexts is not free either.

Heikki Linnakangas	a5be6e9a1d	Fix comments that claimed that mblen() only looks at first byte. ... GB18030's mblen() function looks at the first and the second byte of the multibyte character, to determine its length. copy.c had made the assumption that mblen() only looks at the first byte, but it turns out to work out fine, because of the way the GB18030 encoding works. COPY will see a 4-byte encoded character as two 2-byte encoded characters, which is enough for COPY's purposes. It cannot mix those up with delimiter or escaping characters, because only single-byte ASCII characters are supported as delimiters or escape characters.

Tom Lane	ade2d61ed0	Improve detection of child-process SIGPIPE failures. ... Commit ffa4cbd62 added logic to detect SIGPIPE failure of a COPY child process, but it only worked correctly if the SIGPIPE occurred in the immediate child process. Depending on the shell in use and the complexity of the shell command string, we might instead get back an exit code of 128 + SIGPIPE, representing a shell error exit reporting SIGPIPE in the child process. We could just hack up ClosePipeToProgram() to add the extra case, but it seems like this is a fairly general issue deserving a more general and better-documented solution. I chose to add a couple of functions in src/common/wait_error.c, which is a natural place to know about wait-result encodings, that will test for either a specific child-process signal type or any child-process signal failure. Then, adjust other places that were doing ad-hoc tests of this type to use the common functions. In RestoreArchivedFile, this fixes a race condition affecting whether the process will report an error or just silently proc_exit(1): before, that depended on whether the intermediate shell got SIGTERM'd itself or reported a child process failing on SIGTERM. Like the previous patch, back-patch to v10; we could go further but there seems no real need to. Per report from Erik Rijkers.

Andres Freund	578b229718	Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility. ... Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

Tom Lane	ffa4cbd623	Handle EPIPE more sanely when we close a pipe reading from a program. ... Previously, any program launched by COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM inherited the server's setting of SIGPIPE handling, i.e. SIG_IGN. Hence, if we were doing COPY FROM PROGRAM and closed the pipe early, the child process would see EPIPE on its output file and typically would treat that as a fatal error, in turn causing the COPY to report error. Similarly, one could get a failure report from a query that didn't read all of the output from a contrib/file_fdw foreign table that uses file_fdw's PROGRAM option. To fix, ensure that child programs inherit SIG_DFL not SIG_IGN processing of SIGPIPE. This seems like an all-around better situation since if the called program wants some non-default treatment of SIGPIPE, it would expect to have to set that up for itself. Then in COPY, if it's COPY FROM PROGRAM and we stop reading short of detecting EOF, treat a SIGPIPE exit from the called program as a non-error condition. This still allows us to report an error for any case where the called program gets SIGPIPE on some other file descriptor. As coded, we won't report a SIGPIPE if we stop reading as a result of seeing an in-band EOF marker (e.g. COPY BINARY EOF marker). It's somewhat debatable whether we should complain if the called program continues to transmit data after an EOF marker. However, it seems like we should avoid throwing error in any questionable cases, especially in a back-patched fix, and anyway it would take additional code to make such an error get reported consistently. Back-patch to v10. We could go further back, since COPY FROM PROGRAM has been around awhile, but AFAICS the only way to reach this situation using core or contrib is via file_fdw, which has only supported PROGRAM sources since v10. The COPY statement per se has no feature whereby it'd stop reading without having hit EOF or an error already. Therefore, I don't see any upside to back-patching further that'd outweigh the risk of complaints about behavioral change. Per bug #15449 from Eric Cyr.

Andres Freund	4da597edf1	Make TupleTableSlots extensible, finish split of existing slot type. ... This commit completes the work prepared in 1a0586de36, splitting the old TupleTableSlot implementation (which could store buffer, heap, minimal and virtual slots) into four different slot types. As described in the aforementioned commit, this is done with the goal of making tuple table slots extensible, to allow for pluggable table access methods. To achieve runtime extensibility for TupleTableSlots, operations on slots that can differ between types of slots are performed using the TupleTableSlotOps struct provided at slot creation time. That includes information from the size of TupleTableSlot struct to be allocated, initialization, deforming etc. See the struct's definition for more detailed information about callbacks TupleTableSlotOps. I decided to rename TTSOpsBufferTuple to TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple and ExecCopySlotTuple to ExecCopySlotHeapTuple, as that seems more consistent with other naming introduced in recent patches. There's plenty optimization potential in the slot implementation, but according to benchmarking the state after this commit has similar performance characteristics to before this set of changes, which seems sufficient. There's a few changes in execReplication.c that currently need to poke through the slot abstraction, that'll be repaired once the pluggable storage patchset provides the necessary infrastructure.

Alvaro Herrera	3f2393edef	Redesign initialization of partition routing structures ... This speeds up write operations (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, COPY, as well as the future MERGE) on partitioned tables. This changes the setup for tuple routing so that it does far less work during the initial setup and pushes more work out to when partitions receive tuples. PartitionDispatchData structs for sub-partitioned tables are only created when a tuple gets routed through it. The possibly large arrays in the PartitionTupleRouting struct have largely been removed. The partitions[] array remains but now never contains any NULL gaps. Previously the NULLs had to be skipped during ExecCleanupTupleRouting(), which could add a large overhead to the cleanup when the number of partitions was large. The partitions[] array is allocated small to start with and only enlarged when we route tuples to enough partitions that it runs out of space. This allows us to keep simple single-row partition INSERTs running quickly. Redesign The arrays in PartitionTupleRouting which stored the tuple translation maps have now been removed. These have been moved out into a PartitionRoutingInfo struct which is an additional field in ResultRelInfo. The find_all_inheritors() call still remains by far the slowest part of ExecSetupPartitionTupleRouting(). This commit just removes the other slow parts. In passing also rename the tuple translation maps from being ParentToChild and ChildToParent to being RootToPartition and PartitionToRoot. The old names mislead you into thinking that a partition of some sub-partitioned table would translate to the rowtype of the sub-partitioned table rather than the root partitioned table.

Andres Freund	1a0586de36	Introduce notion of different types of slots (without implementing them). ... Upcoming work intends to allow pluggable ways to introduce new ways of storing table data. Accessing those table access methods from the executor requires TupleTableSlots to be carry tuples in the native format of such storage methods; otherwise there'll be a significant conversion overhead. Different access methods will require different data to store tuples efficiently (just like virtual, minimal, heap already require fields in TupleTableSlot). To allow that without requiring additional pointer indirections, we want to have different structs (embedding TupleTableSlot) for different types of slots. Thus different types of slots are needed, which requires adapting creators of slots. The slot that most efficiently can represent a type of tuple in an executor node will often depend on the type of slot a child node uses. Therefore we need to track the type of slot is returned by nodes, so parent slots can create slots based on that. Relatedly, JIT compilation of tuple deforming needs to know which type of slot a certain expression refers to, so it can create an appropriate deforming function for the type of tuple in the slot. But not all nodes will only return one type of slot, e.g. an append node will potentially return different types of slots for each of its subplans. Therefore add function that allows to query the type of a node's result slot, and whether it'll always be the same type (whether it's fixed). This can be queried using ExecGetResultSlotOps(). The scan, result, inner, outer type of slots are automatically inferred from ExecInitScanTupleSlot(), ExecInitResultSlot(), left/right subtrees respectively. If that's not correct for a node, that can be overwritten using new fields in PlanState. This commit does not introduce the actually abstracted implementation of different kind of TupleTableSlots, that will be left for a followup commit. The different types of slots introduced will, for now, still use the same backing implementation. While this already partially invalidates the big comment in tuptable.h, it seems to make more sense to update it later, when the different TupleTableSlot implementations actually exist.

Andres Freund	763f2edd92	Rejigger materializing and fetching a HeapTuple from a slot. ... Previously materializing a slot always returned a HeapTuple. As current work aims to reduce the reliance on HeapTuples (so other storage systems can work efficiently), that needs to change. Thus split the tasks of materializing a slot (i.e. making it independent from the underlying storage / other memory contexts) from fetching a HeapTuple from the slot. For brevity, allow to fetch a HeapTuple from a slot and materializing the slot at the same time, controlled by a parameter. For now some callers of ExecFetchSlotHeapTuple, with materialize = true, expect that changes to the heap tuple will be reflected in the underlying slot. Those places will be adapted in due course, so while not pretty, that's OK for now. Also rename ExecFetchSlotTuple to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum and ExecFetchSlotTupleDatum to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum, as it's likely that future storage methods will need similar methods. There already is ExecFetchSlotMinimalTuple, so the new names make the naming scheme more coherent.

Create an array estate->es_relations[] paralleling the es_range_table, and store references to Relations (relcache entries) there, so that any given RT entry is opened and closed just once per executor run. Scan nodes typically still call ExecOpenScanRelation, but ExecCloseScanRelation is no more; relation closing is now done centrally in ExecEndPlan. This is slightly more complex than one would expect because of the interactions with relcache references held in ResultRelInfo nodes. The general convention is now that ResultRelInfo->ri_RelationDesc does not represent a separate relcache reference and so does not need to be explicitly closed; but there is an exception for ResultRelInfos in the es_trig_target_relations list, which are manufactured by ExecGetTriggerResultRel and have to be cleaned up by ExecCleanUpTriggerState. (That much was true all along, but these ResultRelInfos are now more different from others than they used to be.)

Andres Freund	cc2905e963	Use slots more widely in tuple mapping code and make naming more consistent. ... It's inefficient to use a single slot for mapping between tuple descriptors for multiple tuples, as previously done when using ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), as that means the slot's tuple descriptors change for every tuple. Previously we also, via ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), built new tuples after the mapping even in cases where we, immediately afterwards, access individual columns again. Refactor the code so one slot, on demand, is used for each partition. That avoids having to change the descriptor (and allows to use the more efficient "fixed" tuple slots). Then use slot->slot mapping, to avoid unnecessarily forming a tuple. As the naming between the tuple and slot mapping functions wasn't consistent, rename them to execute_attr_map_{tuple,slot}. It's likely that we'll also rename convert_tuples_by_* to denote that these functions "only" build a map, but that's left for later.

Peter Eisentraut	0d5f05cde0	Allow multi-inserts during COPY into a partitioned table ... CopyFrom allows multi-inserts to be used for non-partitioned tables, but this was disabled for partitioned tables. The reason for this appeared to be that the tuple may not belong to the same partition as the previous tuple did. Not allowing multi-inserts here greatly slowed down imports into partitioned tables. These could take twice as long as a copy to an equivalent non-partitioned table. It seems wise to do something about this, so this change allows the multi-inserts by flushing the so-far inserted tuples to the partition when the next tuple does not belong to the same partition, or when the buffer fills. This improves performance when the next tuple in the stream commonly belongs to the same partition as the previous tuple. In cases where the target partition changes on every tuple, using multi-inserts slightly slows the performance. To get around this we track the average size of the batches that have been inserted and adaptively enable or disable multi-inserts based on the size of the batch. Some testing was done and the regression only seems to exist when the average size of the insert batch is close to 1, so let's just enable multi-inserts when the average size is at least 1.3. More performance testing might reveal a better number for, this, but since the slowdown was only 1-2% it does not seem critical enough to spend too much time calculating it. In any case it may depend on other factors rather than just the size of the batch. Allowing multi-inserts for partitions required a bit of work around the per-tuple memory contexts as we must flush the tuples when the next tuple does not belong the same partition. In which case there is no good time to reset the per-tuple context, as we've already built the new tuple by this time. In order to work around this we maintain two per-tuple contexts and just switch between them every time the partition changes and reset the old one. This does mean that the first of each batch of tuples is not allocated in the same memory context as the others, but that does not matter since we only reset the context once the previous batch has been inserted.

This could have been fixed in a very small patch, but on further analysis of the involved function and its callsites, it turns out to be simpler to give the responsibility of checking the partition constraint fully to the caller, and return ExecConstraints to its original (pre-partitioning) shape where it only checked tuple descriptor-related constraints.

Stephen Frost	0fdc8495bf	Add default roles for file/program access ... This patch adds new default roles named 'pg_read_server_files', 'pg_write_server_files', 'pg_execute_server_program' which allow an administrator to GRANT to a non-superuser role the ability to access server-side files or run programs through PostgreSQL (as the user the database is running as). Having one of these roles allows a non-superuser to use server-side COPY to read, write, or with a program, and to use file_fdw (if installed by a superuser and GRANT'd USAGE on it) to read from files or run a program. The existing misc file functions are also changed to allow a user with the 'pg_read_server_files' default role to read any files on the filesystem, matching the privileges given to that role through COPY and file_fdw from above.

Robert Haas	cfbecf8100	Enforce child constraints during COPY TO a partitioned table. ... The previous coding inadvertently checked the constraints for the partitioned table rather than the target partition, which could lead to data in a partition that fails to satisfy some constraint on that partition. This problem seems to date back to when table partitioning was introduced; prior to that, there was only one target table for a COPY, so the problem didn't occur, and the code just didn't get updated.

Alvaro Herrera	6666ee49f4	Fix state reversal after partition tuple routing ... We make some changes to ModifyTableState and the EState it uses whenever we route tuples to partitions; but we weren't restoring properly in all cases, possibly causing crashes when partitions with different tuple descriptors are targeted by tuples inserted in the same command. Refactor some code, creating ExecPrepareTupleRouting, to encapsulate the needed state changing logic, and have it invoked one level above its current place (ie. put it in ExecModifyTable instead of ExecInsert); this makes it all more readable. Add a test case to exercise this. We don't support having views as partitions; and since only views can have INSTEAD OF triggers, there is no point in testing for INSTEAD OF when processing insertions into a partitioned table. Remove code that appears to support this (but which is actually never relevant.) In passing, fix location of some very confusing comments in ModifyTableState.

Robert Haas	edd44738bc	Be lazier about partition tuple routing. ... It's not necessary to fully initialize the executor data structures for partitions to which no tuples are ever routed. Consider, for example, an INSERT statement that inserts only one row: it only cares about the partition to which that one row is routed. The new function ExecInitPartitionInfo performs the initialization in question only when a particular partition is about to receive a tuple. This includes creating, validating, and saving a pointer to the ResultRelInfo, setting up for speculative insertions, translating WCOs and initializing the resulting expressions, translating returning lists and building the appropriate projection information, and setting up a tuple conversion map. One thing that's not deferred is locking the child partitions; that seems desirable but would need more thought. Still, testing shows that this makes single-row inserts significantly faster on a table with many partitions without harming the bulk-insert case.

Andres Freund	ad7dbee368	Allow tupleslots to have a fixed tupledesc, use in executor nodes. ... The reason for doing so is that it will allow expression evaluation to optimize based on the underlying tupledesc. In particular it will allow to JIT tuple deforming together with the expression itself. For that expression initialization needs to be moved after the relevant slots are initialized - mostly unproblematic, except in the case of nodeWorktablescan.c. After doing so there's no need for ExecAssignResultType() and ExecAssignResultTypeFromTL() anymore, as all former callers have been converted to create a slot with a fixed descriptor. When creating a slot with a fixed descriptor, tts_values/isnull can be allocated together with the main slot, reducing allocation overhead and increasing cache density a bit.

Peter Eisentraut	533c5d8bdd	Fix application of identity values in some cases ... Investigation of 2d2d06b7e2 revealed that identity values were not applied in some further cases, including logical replication subscribers, VALUES RTEs, and ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN. To fix all that, apply the identity column expression in build_column_default() instead of repeating the same logic at each call site. For ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN ... IDENTITY, the previous coding completely ignored that existing rows for the new column should have values filled in from the identity sequence. The coding using build_column_default() fails for this because the sequence ownership isn't registered until after ALTER TABLE, and we can't do it before because we don't have the column in the catalog yet. So we specially remember in ColumnDef the sequence name that we decided on and build a custom NextValueExpr using that. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>	8 years ago

When an UPDATE causes a row to no longer match the partition constraint, try to move it to a different partition where it does match the partition constraint.

Tom Lane	0f79440fb0	Fix SQL-spec incompatibilities in new transition table feature. ... The standard says that all changes of the same kind (insert, update, or delete) caused in one table by a single SQL statement should be reported in a single transition table; and by that, they mean to include foreign key enforcement actions cascading from the statement's direct effects. It's also reasonable to conclude that if the standard had wCTEs, they would say that effects of wCTEs applying to the same table as each other or the outer statement should be merged into one transition table. We weren't doing it like that. Hence, arrange to merge tuples from multiple update actions into a single transition table as much as we can. There is a problem, which is that if the firing of FK enforcement triggers and after-row triggers with transition tables is interspersed, we might need to report more tuples after some triggers have already seen the transition table. It seems like a bad idea for the transition table to be mutable between trigger calls. There's no good way around this without a major redesign of the FK logic, so for now, resolve it by opening a new transition table each time this happens. Also, ensure that AFTER STATEMENT triggers fire just once per statement, or once per transition table when we're forced to make more than one. Previous versions of Postgres have allowed each FK enforcement query to cause an additional firing of the AFTER STATEMENT triggers for the referencing table, but that's certainly not per spec. (We're still doing multiple firings of BEFORE STATEMENT triggers, though; is that something worth changing?) Also, forbid using transition tables with column-specific UPDATE triggers. The spec requires such transition tables to show only the tuples for which the UPDATE trigger would have fired, which means maintaining multiple transition tables or else somehow filtering the contents at readout. Maybe someday we'll bother to support that option, but it looks like a lot of trouble for a marginal feature. The transition tables are now managed by the AfterTriggers data structures, rather than being directly the responsibility of ModifyTable nodes. This removes a subtransaction-lifespan memory leak introduced by my previous band-aid patch 3c4359521. In passing, refactor the AfterTriggers data structures to reduce the management overhead for them, by using arrays of structs rather than several parallel arrays for per-query-level and per-subtransaction state. I failed to resist the temptation to do some copy-editing on the SGML docs about triggers, above and beyond merely documenting the effects of this patch. Back-patch to v10, because we don't want the semantics of transition tables to change post-release. Patch by me, with help and review from Thomas Munro.
