* Add optimizer and executor support for parallel index-only scans.Robert Haas2017-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5262f7a4fc44f651241d2ff1fa688dd664a34874 added similar support for parallel index scans; this extends that work to index-only scans. As with parallel index scans, this requires support from the index AM, so currently parallel index-only scans will only be possible for btree indexes.

* Make dsa_allocate interface more like MemoryContextAlloc.Robert Haas2017-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new function dsa_allocate_extended now takes flags which indicate that huge allocations should be permitted, that out-of-memory conditions should not throw an error, and/or that the returned memory should be zero-filled, just like MemoryContextAllocateExtended. Commit 9acb85597f1223ac26a5b19a9345849c43d0ff54, which added dsa_allocate0, was broken because it failed to account for the possibility that dsa_allocate() might return InvalidDsaPointer. This fixes that problem along the way. Thomas Munro, with some comment changes by me. Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/CA+Tgmobt7CcF_uQP2UQwWmu4K9qCHehMJP9_9m1urwP8hbOeHQ@mail.gmail.com

* Optimize query for information_schema.constraint_column_usagePeter Eisentraut2017-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | The way the old query was written prevented some join optimizations because the join conditions were hidden inside a CASE expression. With a large number of constraints, the query became unreasonably slow. The new query performs much better.

* Make sure that hash join's bulk-tuple-transfer loops are interruptible.Tom Lane2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The loops in ExecHashJoinNewBatch(), ExecHashIncreaseNumBatches(), and ExecHashRemoveNextSkewBucket() are all capable of iterating over many tuples without ever doing a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS, so that the backend might fail to respond to SIGINT or SIGTERM for an unreasonably long time. Fix that. In the case of ExecHashJoinNewBatch(), it seems useful to put the added CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into ExecHashJoinGetSavedTuple() rather than directly in the loop, because that will also ensure that both principal code paths through ExecHashJoinOuterGetTuple() will do a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS, which seems like a good idea to avoid surprises. Back-patch to all supported branches. Tom Lane and Thomas Munro Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/6044.1487121720@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Doc: fix syntax synopsis for INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.Tom Lane2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | Commit 906bfcad7 adjusted the syntax synopsis for UPDATE, but missed the fact that the INSERT synopsis now contains a duplicate of that. In passing, improve wording and markup about using a table alias to dodge the conflict with use of "excluded" as a special table name.
* Fix tab completion for "ALTER SYSTEM SET variable ...".Tom Lane2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It wouldn't complete "TO" after the variable name, which is certainly minor enough. But since we do complete "TO" after "SET variable ...", and since this case used to work pre-9.6, I think this is a bug. Also, fix the query used to collect the variable names; whoever last touched it evidently didn't understand how the pieces are supposed to fit together. It accidentally worked anyway, because readline ignores irrelevant completions, but it was randomly unlike the ones around it, and could be a source of actual bugs if someone copied it as a prototype for another query.
* Fix YA unwanted behavioral difference with operator_precedence_warning.Tom Lane2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jeff Janes noted that the error cursor position shown for some errors would vary when operator_precedence_warning is turned on. We'd prefer that option to have no undocumented effects, so this isn't desirable. To fix, make sure that an AEXPR_PAREN node has the same exprLocation as its child node. (Note: it would be a little cheaper to use @2 here instead of an exprLocation call, but there are cases where that wouldn't produce the identical answer, so don't do it like that.) Back-patch to 9.5 where this feature was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAMkU=1ykK+VhhcQ4Ky8KBo9FoaUJH3f3rDQB8TkTXi-ZsBRUkQ@mail.gmail.com
* Add optimizer and executor support for parallel index scans.Robert Haas2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | In combination with 569174f1be92be93f5366212cc46960d28a5c5cd, which taught the btree AM how to perform parallel index scans, this allows parallel index scan plans on btree indexes. This infrastructure should be general enough to support parallel index scans for other index AMs as well, if someone updates them to support parallel scans.

* Replace min_parallel_relation_size with two new GUCs.Robert Haas2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When min_parallel_relation_size was added, the only supported type of parallel scan was a parallel sequential scan, but there are pending patches for parallel index scan, parallel index-only scan, and parallel bitmap heap scan. Those patches introduce two new types of complications: first, what's relevant is not really the total size of the relation but the portion of it that we will scan; and second, index pages and heap pages shouldn't necessarily be treated in exactly the same way. Typically, the number of index pages will be quite small, but that doesn't necessarily mean that a parallel index scan can't pay off. Therefore, we introduce min_parallel_table_scan_size, which works out a degree of parallelism for scans based on the number of table pages that will be scanned (and which is therefore equivalent to min_parallel_relation_size for parallel sequential scans) and also min_parallel_index_scan_size which can be used to work out a degree of parallelism based on the number of index pages that will be scanned.

* btree: Support parallel index scans.Robert Haas2017-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This isn't exposed to the optimizer or the executor yet; we'll add support for those things in a separate patch. But this puts the basic mechanism in place: several processes can attach to a parallel btree index scan, and each one will get a subset of the tuples that would have been produced by a non-parallel scan. Each index page becomes the responsibility of a single worker, which then returns all of the TIDs on that page.

* Allow parallel workers to execute subplans.Robert Haas2017-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This doesn't do anything to make Param nodes anything other than parallel-restricted, so this only helps with uncorrelated subplans, and it's not necessarily very cheap because each worker will run the subplan separately (just as a Hash Join will build a separate copy of the hash table in each participating process), but it's a first step toward supporting cases that are more likely to help in practice, and is occasionally useful on its own.

* Split index xlog headers from other private index headers.Robert Haas2017-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The xlog-specific headers need to be included in both frontend code - specifically, pg_waldump - and the backend, but the remainder of the private headers for each index are only needed by the backend. By splitting the xlog stuff out into separate headers, pg_waldump pulls in fewer backend headers, which is a good thing.

* Remove contrib/tsearch2.Robert Haas2017-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | This module was intended to ease migrations of applications that used the pre-8.3 version of text search to the in-core version introduced in that release. However, since all pre-8.3 releases of the database have been out of support for more than 5 years at this point, we expect that few people are depending on it at this point. If some people still need it, nothing prevents it from being maintained as a separate extension, outside of core.

* Ignore tablespace ACLs when ignoring schema ACLs.Noah Misch2017-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | The ALTER TABLE ALTER TYPE implementation can issue DROP INDEX and CREATE INDEX to refit existing indexes for the new column type. Since this CREATE INDEX is an implementation detail of an index alteration, the ensuing DefineIndex() should skip ACL checks specific to index creation. It already skips the namespace ACL check. Make it skip the tablespace ACL check, too. Back-patch to 9.2 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Tom Lane.
* Add CREATE SEQUENCE AS <data type> clausePeter Eisentraut2017-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This stores a data type, required to be an integer type, with the sequence. The sequences min and max values default to the range supported by the type, and they cannot be set to values exceeding that range. The internal implementation of the sequence is not affected. Change the serial types to create sequences of the appropriate type. This makes sure that the min and max values of the sequence for a serial column match the range of values supported by the table column. So the sequence can no longer overflow the table column. This also makes monitoring for sequence exhaustion/wraparound easier, which currently requires various contortions to cross-reference the sequences with the table columns they are used with. This commit also effectively reverts the pg_sequence column reordering in f3b421da5f4addc95812b9db05a24972b8fd9739, because the new seqtypid column allows us to fill the hole in the struct and create a more natural overall column ordering.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The S/390 members of the buildfarm are showing failures indicating that they're having trouble with the rint() calls I added yesterday. There's no good reason for that, and I wonder if it is a compiler bug similar to the one we worked around in d9476b838. Try to fix it using the same method as before, namely to store the result of rint() back into a "double" variable rather than immediately converting to int64. (This isn't entirely waving a dead chicken, since on machines with wider-than-double float registers, the extra store forces a width conversion. I don't know if S/390 is like that, but it seems worth trying.) In passing, merge duplicate ereport() calls in float8_timestamptz(). Per buildfarm.
