Andres Freund	250bca7fc1	Debugging and profiling support for LLVM JIT provider. ... This currently requires patches to the LLVM codebase to be effective (submitted upstream), the GUCs are available without those patches however.

Andres Freund	b96d550eb0	Support for optimizing and emitting code in LLVM JIT provider. ... This commit introduces the ability to actually generate code using LLVM. In particular, this adds: - Ability to emit code both in heavily optimized and largely unoptimized fashion - Batching facility to allow functions to be defined in small increments, but optimized and emitted in executable form in larger batches (for performance and memory efficiency) - Type and function declaration synchronization between runtime generated code and normal postgres code. This is critical to be able to access struct fields etc. - Developer oriented jit_dump_bitcode GUC, for inspecting / debugging the generated code. - per JitContext statistics of number of functions, time spent generating code, optimizing, and emitting it. This will later be employed for EXPLAIN support. This commit doesn't yet contain any code actually generating functions. That'll follow in later commits. Documentation for GUCs added, and for JIT in general, will be added in later commits.

Andres Freund	432bb9e04d	Basic JIT provider and error handling infrastructure. ... This commit introduces: 1) JIT provider abstraction, which allows JIT functionality to be implemented in separate shared libraries. That's desirable because it allows to install JIT support as a separate package, and because it allows experimentation with different forms of JITing. 2) JITContexts which can be, using functions introduced in follow up commits, used to emit JITed functions, and have them be cleaned up on error. 3) The outline of a LLVM JIT provider, which will be fleshed out in subsequent commits. Documentation for GUCs added, and for JIT in general, will be added in later commits.
