* Create a separate oid range for oids assigned by genbki.pl.Andres Freund2018-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The changes I made in 578b229718e assigned oids below FirstBootstrapObjectId to objects in include/catalog/*.dat files that did not have an oid assigned, starting at the max oid explicitly assigned. Tom criticized that for mainly two reasons: 1) It's not clear which values are manually and which explicitly assigned. 2) The space below FirstBootstrapObjectId gets pretty crowded, and some PostgreSQL forks have used oids >= 9000 for their own objects, to avoid conflicting. Thus create a new range for objects not assigned explicit oids, but assigned by genbki.pl. For now 1-9999 is for explicitly assigned oids, FirstGenbkiObjectId (10000) to FirstBootstrapObjectId (1200) -1 is for genbki.pl assigned oids, and < FirstNormalObjectId (16384) is for oids assigned during bootstrap. It's possible that we'll have to adjust these boundaries, but there's some headroom for now. Add a note suggesting that oids in forks should be assigned in the 9000-9999 range. Catversion bump for obvious reasons. Per complaint from Tom Lane. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16845.1544393682@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Repair bogus EPQ plans generated for postgres_fdw foreign joins.Tom Lane2018-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | postgres_fdw's postgresGetForeignPlan() assumes without checking that the outer_plan it's given for a join relation must have a NestLoop, MergeJoin, or HashJoin node at the top. That's been wrong at least since commit 4bbf6edfb (which could cause insertion of a Sort node on top) and it seems like a pretty unsafe thing to Just Assume even without that. Through blind good fortune, this doesn't seem to have any worse consequences today than strange EXPLAIN output, but it's clearly trouble waiting to happen. To fix, test the node type explicitly before touching Join-specific fields, and avoid jamming the new tlist into a node type that can't do projection. Export a new support function from createplan.c to avoid building low-level knowledge about the latter into FDWs. Back-patch to 9.6 where the faulty coding was added. Note that the associated regression test cases don't show any changes before v11, apparently because the tests back-patched with 4bbf6edfb don't actually exercise the problem case before then (there's no top-level Sort in those plans).

* postgres_fdw: Improve cost and size estimation for aggregate pushdown.Etsuro Fujita2018-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 7012b132d07c2b4ea15b0b3cb1ea9f3278801d98, which added aggregate pushdown to postgres_fdw, we didn't account for the evaluation cost and the selectivity of HAVING quals attached to ForeignPaths performing aggregate pushdown, as core had never accounted for that for AggPaths and GroupPaths. And we didn't set these values of the locally-checked quals (ie, fpinfo's local_conds_cost and local_conds_sel), which were initialized to zeros, but since estimate_path_cost_size factors in these to estimate the result size and the evaluation cost of such a ForeignPath when the use_remote_estimate option is enabled, this caused it to produce underestimated results in that case. By commit 7b6c07547190f056b0464098bb5a2247129d7aa2 core was changed so that it accounts for the evaluation cost and the selectivity of HAVING quals in aggregation paths, so change the postgres_fdw's aggregate pushdown code as well as such. This not only fixes the underestimation issue mentioned above, but improves the estimation using local statistics in that function when that option is disabled. This would be a bug fix rather than an improvement, but apply it to HEAD only to avoid destabilizing existing plan choices.

* Fix hstore hash function for empty hstores upgraded from 8.4.Andrew Gierth2018-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hstore data generated on pg 8.4 and pg_upgraded to current versions remains in its original on-disk format unless modified. The same goes for values generated by the addon hstore-new module on pre-9.0 versions. (The hstoreUpgrade function converts old values on the fly when read in, but the on-disk value is not modified by this.) Since old-format empty hstores (and hstore-new hstores) have representations compatible with the new format, hstoreUpgrade thought it could get away without modifying such values; but this breaks hstore_hash (and the new hstore_hash_extended) which assumes bit-perfect matching between semantically identical hstore values. Only one bit actually differs (the "new version" flag in the count field) but that of course is enough to break the hash. Fix by making hstoreUpgrade unconditionally convert all old values to new format. Backpatch all the way, even though this changes a hash value in some cases, because in those cases the hash value is already failing - for example, a hash join between old- and new-format empty hstores will be failing to match, or a hash index on an hstore column containing an old-format empty value will be failing to find the value since it will be searching for a hash derived from a new-format datum. (There are no known field reports of this happening, probably because hashing of hstores has only been useful in limited circumstances and there probably isn't much upgraded data being used this way.) Per concerns arising from discussion of commit eb6f29141be. Original bug is my fault. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/60b1fd3b-7332-40f0-7e7f-f2f04f777747%402ndquadrant.com
* Avoid crashes in contrib/intarray gist__int_ops (bug #15518)Andrew Gierth2018-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Integer overflow in internal_size could result in memory corruption in decompression since a zero-length array would be allocated and then written to. This leads to crashes or corruption when traversing an index which has been populated with sufficiently sparse values. Fix by using int64 for computations and checking for overflow. 2. Integer overflow in g_int_compress could cause pessimal merge choices, resulting in unnecessarily large ranges (which would in turn trigger issue 1 above). Fix by using int64 again. 3. Even without overflow, array sizes could become large enough to cause unexplained memory allocation errors. Fix by capping the sizes to a safe limit and report actual errors pointing at gist__intbig_ops as needed. 4. Large inputs to the compression function always consist of large runs of consecutive integers, and the compression loop was processing these one at a time in an O(N^2) manner with a lot of overhead. The expected runtime of this function could easily exceed 6 months for a single call as a result. Fix by performing a linear-time first pass, which reduces the worst case to something on the order of seconds. Backpatch all the way, since this has been wrong forever.

* Add WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH pseudo-event.Thomas Munro2018-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users of the WaitEventSet and WaitLatch() APIs can now choose between asking for WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH and then handling it explicitly, or asking for WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH to trigger immediate exit on postmaster death. This reduces code duplication, since almost all callers want the latter. Repair all code that was previously ignoring postmaster death completely, or requesting the event but ignoring it, or requesting the event but then doing an unconditional PostmasterIsAlive() call every time through its event loop (which is an expensive syscall on platforms for which we don't have USE_POSTMASTER_DEATH_SIGNAL support). Assert that callers of WaitLatchXXX() under the postmaster remember to ask for either WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH or WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH, to prevent future bugs. The only process that doesn't handle postmaster death is syslogger. It waits until all backends holding the write end of the syslog pipe (including the postmaster) have closed it by exiting, to be sure to capture any parting messages. By using the WaitEventSet API directly it avoids the new assertion, and as a by-product it may be slightly more efficient on platforms that have epoll().

* Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Rejigger materializing and fetching a HeapTuple from a slot.Andres Freund2018-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Still further rethinking of build changes for macOS Mojave.Tom Lane2018-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid the sorts of problems complained of by Jakob Egger, it'd be best if configure didn't emit any references to the sysroot path at all. In the case of PL/Tcl, we can do that just by keeping our hands off the TCL_INCLUDE_SPEC string altogether. In the case of PL/Perl, we need to substitute -iwithsysroot for -I in the compile commands, which is easily handled if we change to using a configure output variable that includes the switch not only the directory name. Since PL/Tcl and PL/Python already do it like that, this seems like good consistency cleanup anyway. Hence, this replaces the advice given to Perl-related extensions in commit 5e2217131; instead of writing "-I$(perl_archlibexp)/CORE", they should just write "$(perl_includespec)". (The old way continues to work, but not on recent macOS.) It's still the case that configure needs to be aware of the sysroot path internally, but that's cleaner than what we had before.

* Fix logical decoding error when system table w/ toast is repeatedly rewritten.Andres Freund2018-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Repeatedly rewriting a mapped catalog table with VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER could cause logical decoding to fail with: ERROR, "could not map filenode \"%s\" to relation OID" To trigger the problem the rewritten catalog had to have live tuples with toasted columns. The problem was triggered as during catalog table rewrites the heap_insert() check that prevents logical decoding information to be emitted for system catalogs, failed to treat the new heap's toast table as a system catalog (because the new heap is not recognized as a catalog table via RelationIsLogicallyLogged()). The relmapper, in contrast to the normal catalog contents, does not contain historical information. After a single rewrite of a mapped table the new relation is known to the relmapper, but if the table is rewritten twice before logical decoding occurs, the relfilenode cannot be mapped to a relation anymore. Which then leads us to error out. This only happens for toast tables, because the main table contents aren't re-inserted with heap_insert(). The fix is simple, add a new heap_insert() flag that prevents logical decoding information from being emitted, and accept during decoding that there might not be tuple data for toast tables. Unfortunately that does not fix pre-existing logical decoding errors. Doing so would require not throwing an error when a filenode cannot be mapped to a relation during decoding, and that seems too likely to hide bugs. If it's crucial to fix decoding for an existing slot, temporarily changing the ERROR in ReorderBufferCommit() to a WARNING appears to be the best fix.

* Remove some unnecessary fields from Plan trees.Tom Lane2018-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the wake of commit f2343653f, we no longer need some fields that were used before to control executor lock acquisitions: * PlannedStmt.nonleafResultRelations can go away entirely. * partitioned_rels can go away from Append, MergeAppend, and ModifyTable. However, ModifyTable still needs to know the RT index of the partition root table if any, which was formerly kept in the first entry of that list. Add a new field "rootRelation" to remember that. rootRelation is partly redundant with nominalRelation, in that if it's set it will have the same value as nominalRelation. However, the latter field has a different purpose so it seems best to keep them distinct.

* Allow btree comparison functions to return INT_MIN.Tom Lane2018-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically we forbade datatype-specific comparison functions from returning INT_MIN, so that it would be safe to invert the sort order just by negating the comparison result. However, this was never really safe for comparison functions that directly return the result of memcmp(), strcmp(), etc, as POSIX doesn't place any such restriction on those library functions. Buildfarm results show that at least on recent Linux on s390x, memcmp() actually does return INT_MIN sometimes, causing sort failures. The agreed-on answer is to remove this restriction and fix relevant call sites to not make such an assumption; code such as "res = -res" should be replaced by "INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT(res)". The same is needed in a few places that just directly negated the result of memcmp or strcmp. To help find places having this problem, I've also added a compile option to nbtcompare.c that causes some of the commonly used comparators to return INT_MIN/INT_MAX instead of their usual -1/+1. It'd likely be a good idea to have at least one buildfarm member running with "-DSTRESS_SORT_INT_MIN". That's far from a complete test of course, but it should help to prevent fresh introductions of such bugs. This is a longstanding portability hazard, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* In the executor, use an array of pointers to access the rangetable.Tom Lane2018-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of doing a lot of list_nth() accesses to es_range_table, create a flattened pointer array during executor startup and index into that to get at individual RangeTblEntrys. This eliminates one source of O(N^2) behavior with lots of partitions. (I'm not exactly convinced that it's the most important source, but it's an easy one to fix.)

* Centralize executor's opening/closing of Relations for rangetable entries.Tom Lane2018-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.) To allow the partition pruning logic to make use of es_relations[] rather than having its own relcache references, adjust PartitionedRelPruneInfo to store an RT index rather than a relation OID.

* Fix issues around EXPLAIN with JIT.Andres Freund2018-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I (Andres) was more than a bit hasty in committing 33001fd7a7072d48327 after last minute changes, leading to a number of problems (jit output was only shown for JIT in parallel workers, and just EXPLAIN without ANALYZE didn't work).

* Fix tuple_data_split() to not open a relation without any lock.Tom Lane2018-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | contrib/pageinspect's tuple_data_split() function thought it could get away with opening the referenced relation with NoLock. In practice there's no guarantee that the current session holds any lock on that rel (even if we just read a page from it), so that this is unsafe. Switch to using AccessShareLock. Also, postpone closing the relation, so that we needn't copy its tupdesc. Also, fix unsafe use of att_isnull() for attributes past the end of the tuple. Per testing with a patch that complains if we open a relation without holding any lock on it. I don't plan to back-patch that patch, but we should close the holes it identifies in all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2038.1538335244@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Split ExecStoreTuple into ExecStoreHeapTuple and ExecStoreBufferHeapTuple.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming changes introduce further types of tuple table slots, in preparation of making table storage pluggable. New storage methods will have different representation of tuples, therefore the slot accessor should refer explicitly to heap tuples. Instead of just renaming the functions, split it into one function that accepts heap tuples not residing in buffers, and one accepting ones in buffers. Previously one function was used for both, but that was a bit awkward already, and splitting will allow us to represent slot types for tuples in buffers and normal memory separately. This is split out from the patch introducing abstract slots, as this largely consists out of mechanical changes.

* Collect JIT instrumentation from workers.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, when using parallel query, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE)'s JIT compilation timings did not include the overhead from doing so on the workers. Fix that. We do so by simply aggregating the cost of doing JIT compilation on workers and the leader together. Arguably that's not quite accurate, because the total time spend doing so is spent in parallel - but it's hard to do much better. For additional detail, when VERBOSE is specified, the stats for workers are displayed separately.

* Make some fixes to allow building Postgres on macOS 10.14 ("Mojave").Tom Lane2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apple's latest rearrangements of the system-supplied headers have broken building of PL/Perl and PL/Tcl. The only practical way to fix PL/Tcl is to start using the "-isysroot" compiler flag to point to SDK-supplied headers, as Apple expects. We must also start distinguishing where to find Perl's headers from where to find its shared library; but that seems like good cleanup anyway. Extensions that formerly did something like -I$(perl_archlibexp)/CORE should now do -I$(perl_includedir)/CORE instead. perl_archlibexp is still the place to look for libperl.so, though. If for some reason you don't like the default -isysroot setting, you can override that by setting PG_SYSROOT in configure's arguments. I don't currently think people would need to do so, unless maybe for cross-version build purposes. In addition, teach configure where to find tclConfig.sh. Our traditional method of searching $auto_path hasn't worked for the last couple of macOS releases, and it now seems clear that Apple's not going to change that. The workaround of manually specifying --with-tclconfig was annoying already, but Mojave's made it a lot more so because the sysroot path now has to be included as well. Let's just wire the knowledge into configure instead. To avoid breaking builds against non-default Tcl installations (e.g. MacPorts) wherein the $auto_path method probably still works, arrange to try the additional case only after all else has failed. Back-patch to all supported versions, since at least the buildfarm cares about that. The changes are set up to not do anything on macOS releases that are old enough to not have functional sysroot trees.

* Fix out-of-tree build for transform modules.Andrew Gierth2018-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Neither plperl nor plpython installed sufficient header files to permit transform modules to be built out-of-tree using PGXS. Fix that by installing all plperl and plpython header files (other than those with special purposes such as generated data tables), and also install plpython's special .mk file for mangling regression tests. (This commit does not fix the windows install, which does not currently install _any_ plperl or plpython headers.) Also fix the existing transform modules for hstore and ltree so that their cross-module #include directives work as anticipated by commit df163230b9 et seq. This allows them to serve as working examples of how to reference other modules when doing separate out-of-tree builds. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/87o9ej8bgl.fsf%40news-spur.riddles.org.uk
* Remove ruleutils.c's special case for BIT [VARYING] literals.Tom Lane2018-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, get_const_expr() insisted on prefixing BIT and VARBIT literals with 'B'. That's not really necessary, because we always append explicit-cast syntax to identify the constant's type. Moreover, it's subtly wrong for VARBIT, because the parser will interpret B'...' as '...'::"bit"; see make_const() which explicitly assigns type BITOID for a T_BitString literal. So what had been a simple VARBIT literal is reconstructed as ('...'::"bit")::varbit, which is not the same thing, at least not before constant folding. This results in odd differences after dump/restore, as complained of by the patch submitter, and it could result in actual failures in partitioning or inheritance DDL operations (see commit 542320c2b, which repaired similar misbehaviors for some other data types). Fixing it is pretty easy: just remove the special case and let the default code path handle these types. We could have kept the special case for BIT only, but there seems little point in that. Like the previous patch, I judge that back-patching this into stable branches wouldn't be a good idea. However, it seems not quite too late for v11, so let's fix it there.

* Make contrib/unaccent's unaccent() function work when not in search path.Tom Lane2018-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the fixes for CVE-2018-1058, we've advised people to schema-qualify function references in order to fix failures in code that executes under a minimal search_path setting. However, that's insufficient to make the single-argument form of unaccent() work, because it looks up the "unaccent" text search dictionary using the search path. The most expedient answer seems to be to remove the search_path dependency by making it look in the same schema that the unaccent() function itself is declared in. This will definitely work for the normal usage of this function with the unaccent dictionary provided by the extension. It's barely possible that there are people who were relying on the search-path-dependent behavior to select other dictionaries with the same name; but if there are any such people at all, they can still get that behavior by writing unaccent('unaccent', ...), or possibly unaccent('unaccent'::text::regdictionary, ...) if the lookup has to be postponed to runtime.

* Improve some error message strings and errcodesMichael Paquier2018-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes a bit less work for translators, by unifying error strings a bit more with what the rest of the code does, this time for three error strings in autoprewarm and one in base backup code. After some code review of slot.c, some file-access errcodes are reported but lead to an incorrect internal error, while corrupted data makes the most sense, similarly to the previous work done in e41d0a1. Also, after calling rmtree(), a WARNING gets reported, which is a duplicate of what the internal call report, so make the code more consistent with all other code paths calling this function.

* Avoid using potentially-under-aligned page buffers.Tom Lane2018-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a project policy against using plain "char buf[BLCKSZ]" local or static variables as page buffers; preferred style is to palloc or malloc each buffer to ensure it is MAXALIGN'd. However, that policy's been ignored in an increasing number of places. We've apparently got away with it so far, probably because (a) relatively few people use platforms on which misalignment causes core dumps and/or (b) the variables chance to be sufficiently aligned anyway. But this is not something to rely on. Moreover, even if we don't get a core dump, we might be paying a lot of cycles for misaligned accesses. To fix, invent new union types PGAlignedBlock and PGAlignedXLogBlock that the compiler must allocate with sufficient alignment, and use those in place of plain char arrays. I used these types even for variables where there's no risk of a misaligned access, since ensuring proper alignment should make kernel data transfers faster. I also changed some places where we had been palloc'ing short-lived buffers, for coding style uniformity and to save palloc/pfree overhead. Since this seems to be a live portability hazard (despite the lack of field reports), back-patch to all supported versions. Patch by me; thanks to Michael Paquier for review.

* Disable support for partitionwise joins in problematic cases.Etsuro Fujita2018-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f49842d, which added support for partitionwise joins, built the child's tlist by applying adjust_appendrel_attrs() to the parent's. So in the case where the parent's included a whole-row Var for the parent, the child's contained a ConvertRowtypeExpr. To cope with that, that commit added code to the planner, such as setrefs.c, but some code paths still assumed that the tlist for a scan (or join) rel would only include Vars and PlaceHolderVars, which was true before that commit, causing errors: * When creating an explicit sort node for an input path for a mergejoin path for a child join, prepare_sort_from_pathkeys() threw the 'could not find pathkey item to sort' error. * When deparsing a relation participating in a pushed down child join as a subquery in contrib/postgres_fdw, get_relation_column_alias_ids() threw the 'unexpected expression in subquery output' error. * When performing set_plan_references() on a local join plan generated by contrib/postgres_fdw for EvalPlanQual support for a pushed down child join, fix_join_expr() threw the 'variable not found in subplan target lists' error. To fix these, two approaches have been proposed: one by Ashutosh Bapat and one by me. While the former keeps building the child's tlist with a ConvertRowtypeExpr, the latter builds it with a whole-row Var for the child not to violate the planner assumption, and tries to fix it up later, But both approaches need more work, so refuse to generate partitionwise join paths when whole-row Vars are involved, instead. We don't need to handle ConvertRowtypeExprs in the child's tlists for now, so this commit also removes the changes to the planner. Previously, partitionwise join computed attr_needed data for each child separately, and built the child join's tlist using that data, which also required an extra step for adding PlaceHolderVars to that tlist, but it would be more efficient to build it from the parent join's tlist through the adjust_appendrel_attrs() transformation. So this commit builds that list that way, and simplifies build_joinrel_tlist() and placeholder.c as well as part of set_append_rel_size() to basically what they were before partitionwise join went in.
