* Need to do SPI_push/SPI_pop around expression evaluation in plpgsql.Tom Lane2016-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must do this in case the expression evaluation results in calling another plpgsql function (or, really, anything using SPI). I missed the need for this when I converted exec_cast_value() from doing a simple InputFunctionCall() to doing ExecEvalExpr() in commit 1345cc67b. There is a SPI_push_conditional in InputFunctionCall(), so that there was no bug before that. Per bug #14414 from Marcos Castedo. Add a regression test based on his example, which was that a plpgsql function in a domain check constraint didn't work when assigning to a domain-type variable within plpgsql.

* More zic cleanup.Tom Lane2016-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The workaround the IANA guys chose to get rid of the clang warning we'd silenced in commit 23ed2ba81 turns out not to satisfy Coverity. Go back to the previous solution, ie, remove the useless comparison to SIZE_MAX. (In principle, there could be machines out there where it's not useless because ptrdiff_t is wider than size_t. But the whole thing is pretty academic anyway, as we could never approach this limit for any sane estimate of the amount of data that zic will ever be asked to work with.) Also, s/lineno/lineno_t/g, because if we accept their decision to start using "lineno" as a typedef, it is going to have very unpleasant consequences in our next pgindent run. Noted that while fooling with pltcl yesterday.
* Improve minor error-handling details in pltcl.Tom Lane2016-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't ask Tcl_GetIndexFromObj to store an error message in the interpreter in cases where the next argument isn't necessarily one of the options we're asking it to check for. At best that is a waste of time, and at worst it might cause an inappropriate error result to get left behind. Be sure to check for valid syntax (ie, no command arguments) in pltcl_SPI_lastoid.

* Adjust cost_merge_append() to reflect use of binaryheap_replace_first().Tom Lane2016-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7a2fe9bd0 improved merge append so that replacement of a tuple takes log(N) operations, not twice log(N). Since cost_merge_append knew about that explicitly, we should adjust it. This probably makes little difference in practice, but the obsolete comment is confusing. Ideally this would have been put in in 9.3 with the underlying behavior change; but I'm not going to back-patch it, since there's some small chance of changing a plan choice that somebody's optimized for.

* Provide DLLEXPORT markers for C functions via PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro.Tom Lane2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Second try at the change originally made in commit 8518583cd; this time with contrib updates so that manual extern declarations are also marked with PGDLLEXPORT. The release notes should point this out as a significant source-code change for extension authors, since they'll have to make similar additions to avoid trouble on Windows.

* Delete contrib/xml2's legacy implementation of xml_is_well_formed().Tom Lane2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function is unreferenced in modern usage; it was superseded in 9.1 by a core function of the same name. It has been left in place in the C code only so that pre-9.1 SQL definitions of the contrib/xml2 functions would continue to work. Six years seems like enough time for people to have updated to the extension-style version of the xml2 module, so let's drop this. The key reason for not keeping it any longer is that we want to stick an explicit PGDLLEXPORT into PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(), and the similarity of name to the core function creates a conflict that compilers will complain about. Extracted from a larger patch for that purpose. I'm committing this change separately to give it more visibility in the commit logs. While at it, remove the documentation entry that claimed that xml_is_well_formed() is a function provided by contrib/xml2, and instead mention the even more ancient alias xml_valid().

* Be more consistent about masking xl_info with ~XLR_INFO_MASK.Tom Lane2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Generally, WAL resource managers are only supposed to examine the top 4 bits of a WAL record's xl_info; the rest are reserved for the WAL mechanism itself. A few places were not consistent about doing this with respect to XLOG_CHECKPOINT and XLOG_SWITCH records. There's no bug currently, since no additional bits ever get set in these specific record types, but that might not be true forever. Let's follow the generic coding rule here too. Michael Paquier
* Fix gin_leafpage_items().Tom Lane2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | On closer inspection, commit 84ad68d64 broke gin_leafpage_items(), because the aligned copy of the page got palloc'd in a short-lived context whereas it needs to be in the SRF's multi_call_memory_ctx. This was not exposed by the regression test, because the regression test doesn't actually exercise the function in a meaningful way. Fix the code bug, and extend the test in what I hope is a portable fashion.
* Improve tab completion for CREATE TRIGGER.Kevin Grittner2016-11-04
| | | | This includes support for the new REFERENCING clause.
* Implement syntax for transition tables in AFTER triggers.Kevin Grittner2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is infrastructure for the complete SQL standard feature. No support is included at this point for execution nodes or PLs. The intent is to add that soon. As this patch leaves things, standard syntax can create tuplestores to contain old and/or new versions of rows affected by a statement. References to these tuplestores are in the TriggerData structure. C triggers can access the tuplestores directly, so they are usable, but they cannot yet be referenced within a SQL statement.

* pageinspect: Fix unaligned struct access in GIN functionsPeter Eisentraut2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | The raw page data that is passed into the functions will not be aligned at 8-byte boundaries. Casting that to a struct and accessing int64 fields will result in unaligned access. On most platforms, you get away with it, but it will result on a crash on pickier platforms such as ia64 and sparc64.
* Add API to check if an existing exclusive lock allows cleanup.Robert Haas2016-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | LockBufferForCleanup() acquires a cleanup lock unconditionally, and ConditionalLockBufferForCleanup() acquires a cleanup lock if it is possible to do so without waiting; this patch adds a new API, IsBufferCleanupOK(), which tests whether an exclusive lock already held happens to be a cleanup lock. This is possible because a cleanup lock simply means an exclusive lock plus the assurance any other pins on the buffer are newer than our own pin. Therefore, just as the existing functions decide that the exclusive lock that they've just taken is a cleanup lock if they observe the pin count to be 1, this new function allows us to observe that the pin count is 1 on a buffer we've already locked. This is useful in situations where a backend definitely wishes to modify the buffer and also wishes to perform cleanup operations if possible. The patch to eliminate heavyweight locking by hash indexes uses this, and it may have other applications as well. Amit Kapila, per a suggestion from me. Some comment adjustments by me as well.

* Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA tzcode master.Tom Lane2016-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch absorbs some unreleased fixes for symlink manipulation bugs introduced in tzcode 2016g. Ordinarily I'd wait around for a released version, but in this case it seems like we could do with extra testing, in particular checking whether it works in EDB's VMware build environment. This corresponds to commit aec59156abbf8472ba201b6c7ca2592f9c10e077 in https://github.com/eggert/tz. Per a report from Sandeep Thakkar, building in an environment where hard links are not supported in the timezone data installation directory failed, because upstream code refactoring had broken the case of symlinking from an existing symlink. Further experimentation also showed that the symlinks were sometimes made incorrectly, with too many or too few "../"'s in the symlink contents. This should get back-patched, but first let's see what the buildfarm makes of it. I'm not too sure about the new dependency on linkat(2).

* Don't make FK-based selectivity estimates in inheritance situations.Tom Lane2016-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The foreign-key-aware logic for estimation of join sizes (added in commit 100340e2d) blindly tried to apply the concept to rels that are actually parents of inheritance trees. This is just plain wrong so far as the referenced relation is concerned, since the inheritance scan may well produce lots of rows that are not participating in the constraint. It's wrong for the referencing relation too, for the same reason; although on that end we could conceivably detect whether all members of the inheritance tree have equivalent FK constraints pointing to the same referenced rel, and then proceed more or less as we do now. But pending somebody writing code to do that, we must disable this, because it's producing completely silly estimates when there's an FK linking the heads of inheritance trees. Per bug #14404 from Clinton Adams. Back-patch to 9.6 where the new estimation logic came in. Report: <20161028200412.15987.96482@wrigleys.postgresql.org>
* Don't convert Consts into Vars during setrefs.c processing.Tom Lane2016-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While converting expressions in an upper-level plan node so that they reference Vars and expressions provided by the input plan node(s), don't convert plain Const items, even if there happens to be a matching Const in the input. It's silly to do so because a Var is more expensive to execute than a Const. Moreover, converting can fool ExecCheckPlanOutput's check that an insert or update query inserts nulls into dropped columns, leading to "query provides a value for a dropped column" errors during INSERT or UPDATE on a table with a dropped column. We could solve this by making that check more complicated, but I don't see the point; this fix should save a marginal number of cycles, and it also makes for less messy EXPLAIN output, as shown by the ensuing regression test result changes. Per report from Pavel HanĂ¡k. I have not incorporated a test case based on that example, as there doesn't seem to be a simple way of checking this in isolation without making a bunch of assumptions about other planner and SQL-function behavior. Back-patch to 9.6. This setrefs.c behavior exists much further back, but there is not currently reason to think that it causes problems before 9.6. Discussion: <83shraampf.fsf@is-it.eu>

* Fix nasty performance problem in tsquery_rewrite().Tom Lane2016-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tsquery_rewrite() tries to find matches to subsets of AND/OR conditions; for example, in the query 'a | b | c' the substitution subquery 'a | c' should match and lead to replacement of the first and third items. That's fine, but the matching algorithm apparently takes about O(2^N) for an N-clause query (I say "apparently" because the code is also both unintelligible and uncommented). We could probably do better than that even without any extra assumptions --- but actually, we know that the subclauses are sorted, indeed are depending on that elsewhere in this very same function. So we can just scan the two lists a single time to detect matches, as though we were doing a merge join. Also do a re-flattening call (QTNTernary()) in tsquery_rewrite_query, just to make sure that the tree fits the expectations of the next search cycle. I didn't try to devise a test case for this, but I'm pretty sure that the oversight could have led to failure to match in some cases where a match would be expected. Improve comments, and also stick a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into dofindsubquery, just in case it's still too slow for somebody. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix bogus tree-flattening logic in QTNTernary().Tom Lane2016-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | QTNTernary() contains logic to flatten, eg, '(a & b) & c' into 'a & b & c', which is all well and good, but it tries to do that to NOT nodes as well, so that '!!a' gets changed to '!a'. Explicitly restrict the conversion to be done only on AND and OR nodes, and add a test case illustrating the bug. In passing, provide some comments for the sadly naked functions in tsquery_util.c, and simplify some baroque logic in QTNFree(), which I think may have been leaking some items it intended to free. Noted while investigating a complaint from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported versions.
* Improve speed of aggregates that use array_append as transition function.Tom Lane2016-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the previous coding, if an aggregate's transition function returned an expanded array, nodeAgg.c and nodeWindowAgg.c would always copy it and thus force it into the flat representation. This led to ping-ponging between flat and expanded formats, which costs a lot. For an aggregate using array_append as transition function, I measured about a 15X slowdown compared to the pre-9.5 code, when working on simple int[] arrays. Of course, the old code was already O(N^2) in this usage due to copying flat arrays all the time, but it wasn't quite this inefficient. To fix, teach nodeAgg.c and nodeWindowAgg.c to allow expanded transition values without copying, so long as the transition function takes care to return the transition value already properly parented under the aggcontext. That puts a bit of extra responsibility on the transition function, but doing it this way allows us to not need any extra logic in the fast path of advance_transition_function (ie, with a pass-by-value transition value, or with a modified-in-place pass-by-reference value). We already know that that's a hot spot so I'm loath to add any cycles at all there. Also, while only array_append currently knows how to follow this convention, this solution allows other transition functions to opt-in without needing to have a whitelist in the core aggregation code. (The reason we would need a whitelist is that currently, if you pass a R/W expanded-object pointer to an arbitrary function, it's allowed to do anything with it including deleting it; that breaks the core agg code's assumption that it should free discarded values. Returning a value under aggcontext is the transition function's signal that it knows it is an aggregate transition function and will play nice. Possibly the API rules for expanded objects should be refined, but that would not be a back-patchable change.) With this fix, an aggregate using array_append is no longer O(N^2), so it's much faster than pre-9.5 code rather than much slower. It's still a bit slower than the bespoke infrastructure for array_agg, but the differential seems to be only about 10%-20% rather than orders of magnitude. Discussion: <6315.1477677885@sss.pgh.pa.us>

* pgstattuple: Don't take heavyweight locks when examining a hash index.Robert Haas2016-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's currently necessary to take a heavyweight lock when scanning a hash bucket, but pgstattuple only examines individual pages, so it doesn't need to do this. If, for some hypothetical reason, it did need to do any heavyweight locking here, this logic would probably still be incorrect, because most of the locks that it is taking are meaningless. Only a heavyweight lock on a primary bucket page has any meaning, but this takes heavyweight locks on all pages regardless of function - and in particular overflow pages, where you might imagine that we'd want to lock the primary bucket page if we needed to lock anything at all. This is arguably a bug that has existed since this code was added in commit dab42382f483c3070bdce14a4d93c5d0cf61e82b, but I'm not going to bother back-patching it because in most cases the only consequence is that running pgstattuple() on a hash index is a little slower than it otherwise might be, which is no big deal. Extracted from a vastly larger patch by Amit Kapila which heavyweight locking for hash indexes entirely; analysis of why this can be done independently of the rest by me.
