* Custom reloptions for table AMAlexander Korotkov2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let table AM define custom reloptions for its tables. This allows specifying AM-specific parameters by the WITH clause when creating a table. The reloptions, which could be used outside of table AM, are now extracted into the CommonRdOptions data structure. These options could be by decision of table AM directly specified by a user or calculated in some way. The new test module test_tam_options evaluates the ability to set up custom reloptions and calculate fields of CommonRdOptions on their base. The code may use some parts from prior work by Hao Wu.

* Fix the intermittent buildfarm failures in 040_standby_failover_slots_sync.Amit Kapila2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible that even if the primary waits for the subscriber to catch up and then disables the subscription, the XLOG_RUNNING_XACTS record gets inserted between the two steps by bgwriter and walsender processes it. This can move the restart_lsn of the corresponding slot in an unpredictable way which further leads to slot sync failure. To ensure predictable behaviour, we drop the subscription and manually create the slot before the test. The other idea we discussed to write a predictable test is to use injection points to control the bgwriter logging XLOG_RUNNING_XACTS but that needs more analysis. We can add a separate test using injection points.

* Use bump context for TID bitmaps stored by vacuumJohn Naylor2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vacuum does not pfree individual entries, and only frees the entire storage space when finished with it. This allows using a bump context, eliminating the chunk header in each leaf allocation. Most leaf allocations will be 16 to 32 bytes, so that's a significant savings. TidStoreCreateLocal gets a boolean parameter to indicate that the created store is insert-only. This requires a separate tree context for iteration, since we free the iteration state after iteration completes.

* JSON_TABLE: Add support for NESTED paths and columnsAmit Langote2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A NESTED path allows to extract data from nested levels of JSON objects given by the parent path expression, which are projected as columns specified using a nested COLUMNS clause, just like the parent COLUMNS clause. Rows comprised from a NESTED columns are "joined" to the row comprised from the parent columns. If a particular NESTED path evaluates to 0 rows, then the nested COLUMNS will emit NULLs, making it an OUTER join. NESTED columns themselves may include NESTED paths to allow extracting data from arbitrary nesting levels, which are likewise joined against the rows at the parent level. Multiple NESTED paths at a given level are called "sibling" paths and their rows are combined by UNIONing them, that is, after being joined against the parent row as described above.

* Fix JsonExpr deparsing to emit QUOTES and WRAPPER correctlyAmit Langote2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, get_json_expr_options() does not emit the default values for QUOTES (KEEP QUOTES) and WRAPPER (WITHOUT WRAPPER). That causes the deparsed JSON_TABLE() columns, such as those contained in a a view's query, to behave differently when executed than the original definition. That's because the rules encoded in transformJsonTableColumns() will choose either JSON_VALUE() or JSON_QUERY() as implementation to execute a given column's path expression depending on the QUOTES and WRAPPER specificationd and they have slightly different semantics.

* Add pg_buffercache_evict() function for testing.Thomas Munro2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When testing buffer pool logic, it is useful to be able to evict arbitrary blocks. This function can be used in SQL queries over the pg_buffercache view to set up a wide range of buffer pool states. Of course, buffer mappings might change concurrently so you might evict a block other than the one you had in mind, and another session might bring it back in at any time. That's OK for the intended purpose of setting up developer testing scenarios, and more complicated interlocking schemes to give stronger guararantees about that would likely be less flexible for actual testing work anyway.

It is also more friendly to generic TLS proxies that don't understand the PostgreSQL protocol. This is disabled by default in libpq, because the direct TLS handshake will fail with old server versions. It can be enabled with the sslnegotation=direct option. It will still fall back to the negotiated TLS handshake if the server rejects the direct attempt, either because it is an older version or the server doesn't support TLS at all, but the fallback can be disabled with the sslnegotiation=requiredirect option.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new SQL function injection_points_set_local() that can be used to force injection points to be run only in the process where they are attached. This is handy for SQL tests to: - Detach automatically injection points when the process exits. - Allow tests with injection points to run concurrently with other test suites, so as such modules do not have to be marked with NO_INSTALLCHECK. Currently, the only condition that can be registered is for a PID. This could be extended to more kinds later, if required, like database names/OIDs, roles, or more concepts I did not consider.

* Enhance libpq encryption negotiation tests with new GUCHeikki Linnakangas2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new "log_connection_negotiation" server option causes the server to print messages to the log when it receives a SSLRequest or GSSENCRequest packet from the client. Together with "log_connections", it gives a trace of how a connection and encryption is negotiatated. Use the option in the libpq_encryption test, to verify in more detail how libpq negotiates encryption with different gssencmode and sslmode options. This revealed a couple of cases where libpq retries encryption or authentication, when it should already know that it cannot succeed. I marked them with XXX comments in the test tables. They only happen when the connection was going to fail anyway, and only with rare combinations of options, so they're not serious.

* With gssencmode='require', check credential cache before connectingHeikki Linnakangas2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, libpq would establish the TCP connection, and then immediately disconnect if the credentials were not available. The same thing happened if you tried to use a Unix domain socket with gssencmode=require. Check those conditions before establishing the TCP connection. This is a very minor issue, but my motivation to do this now is that I'm about to add more detail to the tests for encryption negotiation. This makes the case of gssencmode=require but no credentials configured fail at the same stage as with gssencmode=require and GSSAPI support not compiled at all. That avoids having to deal with variations in expected output depending on build options.

This is in preparation for refactoring that code in libpq, and for adding a new option for "direct SSL" connections, which adds another dimension to the logic. If we add even more options in the future, testing all combinations will become unwieldy and we'll need to rethink this, but for now an exhaustive test is nice.

Here Cn is a n-th constant expression, 'expr' is non-constant expression, 'op' is an operator which returns boolean result and has a commuter (for the case of reverse order of constant and non-constant parts of the expression, like 'Cn op expr'). Sometimes it can lead to not optimal plan. This is why there is a or_to_any_transform_limit GUC. It specifies a threshold value of length of arguments in an OR expression that triggers the OR-to-ANY transformation. Generally, more groupable OR arguments mean that transformation will be more likely to win than to lose.

While we're at it, improve the error message when the tests are skipped, to specify whether the OS is supported at all, or if we just didn't find the installation directory. This was accidentally "working" without this, i.e. we were skipping the tests if the OpenLDAP installation was not found, because of a bug in the LdapServer test module: the END block clobbered the exit code so if the script die()s before running the first subtest, the whole test script was marked as SKIPped. The next commit will fix that bug, but we need to fix the setup code first.

(However, more infrastructure is needed in order to actually use WAL after the flush point, since it could be lost.) The value is also useful in WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() itself, since we can now exit quickly when all WAL has been already inserted, without even having to take any locks.
* Introduce a bump memory allocatorDavid Rowley2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a bump MemoryContext type. The bump context is best suited for short-lived memory contexts which require only allocations of memory and never a pfree or repalloc, which are unsupported. Memory palloc'd into a bump context has no chunk header. This makes bump a useful context type when lots of small allocations need to be done without any need to pfree those allocations. Allocation sizes are rounded up to the next MAXALIGN boundary, so with this and no chunk header, allocations are very compact indeed. Allocations are also very fast as bump does not check any freelists to try and make use of previously free'd chunks. It just checks if there is enough room on the current block, and if so it bumps the freeptr beyond this chunk and returns the value that the freeptr was previously pointing to. Simple and fast. A new block is malloc'd when there's not enough space in the current block. Code using the bump allocator must take care never to call any functions which could try to call realloc() (or variants), pfree(), GetMemoryChunkContext() or GetMemoryChunkSpace() on a bump allocated chunk. Due to lack of chunk headers, these operations are unsupported. To increase the chances of catching such issues, when compiled with MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING, bump allocated chunks are given a header and any attempt to perform an unsupported operation will result in an ERROR. Without MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING, code attempting an unsupported operation could result in a segfault. A follow-on commit will implement the first user of bump.

* Enlarge bit-space for MemoryContextMethodIDDavid Rowley2024-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reserve 4 bits for MemoryContextMethodID rather than 3. 3 bits did technically allow a maximum of 8 memory context types, however, we've opted to reserve some bit patterns which left us with only 4 slots, all of which were used. Here we add another bit which frees up 8 slots for future memory context types. In passing, adjust the enum names in MemoryContextMethodID to make it more clear which ones can be used and which ones are reserved.

* Avoid needless large memcpys in libpq socket writingDavid Rowley2024-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, when calling pq_putmessage to write new data to a libpq socket, all writes are copied into a buffer and that buffer gets flushed when full to avoid having to perform small writes to the socket. There are cases where we must write large amounts of data to the socket, sometimes larger than the size of the buffer. In this case, it's wasteful to memcpy this data into the buffer and flush it out, instead, we can send it directly from the memory location that the data is already stored in. Here we adjust internal_putbytes() so that after having just flushed the buffer to the socket, if the remaining bytes to send is as big or bigger than the buffer size, we just send directly rather than needlessly copying into the PqSendBuffer buffer first. Examples of operations that write large amounts of data in one message are; outputting large tuples with SELECT or COPY TO STDOUT and pg_basebackup.

* Reduce branches in heapgetpage()'s per-tuple loopAndres Freund2024-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, heapgetpage()'s loop over all tuples performed some conditional checks for each tuple, even though condition did not change across the loop. This commit fixes that by moving the loop into an inline function. By calling it with different constant arguments, the compiler can generate an optimized loop for the different conditions, at the price of two per-page checks. For cases of all-visible tables and an isolation level other than serializable, speedups of up to 25% have been measured.

* Optimize visibilitymap_count() with AVX-512 instructions.Nathan Bossart2024-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 792752af4e added infrastructure for using AVX-512 intrinsic functions, and this commit uses that infrastructure to optimize visibilitymap_count(). Specificially, a new pg_popcount_masked() function is introduced that applies a bitmask to every byte in the buffer prior to calculating the population count, which is used to filter out the all-visible or all-frozen bits as needed. Platforms without AVX-512 support should also see a nice speedup due to the reduced number of calls to a function pointer.

* Optimize pg_popcount() with AVX-512 instructions.Nathan Bossart2024-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Presently, pg_popcount() processes data in 32-bit or 64-bit chunks when possible. Newer hardware that supports AVX-512 instructions can use 512-bit chunks, which provides a nice speedup, especially for larger buffers. This commit introduces the infrastructure required to detect compiler and CPU support for the required AVX-512 intrinsic functions, and it adds a new pg_popcount() implementation that uses these functions. If CPU support for this optimized implementation is detected at runtime, a function pointer is updated so that it is used by subsequent calls to pg_popcount(). Most of the existing in-tree calls to pg_popcount() should benefit from these instructions, and calls with smaller buffers should at least not regress compared to v16. The new infrastructure introduced by this commit can also be used to optimize visibilitymap_count(), but that is left for a follow-up commit.

* Fix if/while thinko in read_stream.c edge case.Thomas Munro2024-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we determine that a wanted block can't be combined with the current pending read, it's time to start that read to get it out of the way. An "if" in that code path should have been a "while", because it might take more than one go in case of partial reads. This was only broken for smaller ranges, as the more common case of io_combine_limit-sized ranges is handled earlier in the code and knows how to loop, hiding the bug for a while. Discovered while testing large parallel sequential scans of partially cached tables. The ramp-up-and-down block allocator for parallel scans could hit the problem case and skip some blocks near the end that should have been streamed. Defect in commit b5a9b18c.

* Disable parallel query in psql error-with-FETCH_COUNT test.Tom Lane2024-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | The buildfarm members using debug_parallel_query = regress are mostly unhappy with this test. I guess what is happening is that rows generated by a parallel worker are buffered, and might or might not get to the leader before the expected error occurs. We did not see any variability in the old version of this test because each FETCH would succeed or fail atomically, leading to a predictable number of rows emitted before failure. I don't find this to be a bug, just unspecified behavior, so let's disable parallel query for this one test case to make the results stable.
