* Stop the executor if no more tuples can be sent from worker to leader.Robert Haas2016-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a Gather node has read as many tuples as it needs (for example, due to Limit) it may detach the queue connecting it to the worker before reading all of the worker's tuples. Rather than let the worker continue to generate and send all of the results, have it stop after sending the next tuple. More could be done here to stop the worker even quicker, but this is about as well as we can hope to do for 9.6. This is in response to a problem report from Andreas Seltenreich. Commit 44339b892a04e94bbb472235882dc6f7023bdc65 should be actually be sufficient to fix that example even without this change, but it seems better to do this, too, since we might otherwise waste quite a large amount of effort in one or more workers.

* Prevent memory leaks from accumulating across printtup() calls.Tom Lane2013-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, printtup() has assumed that it could prevent memory leakage by pfree'ing the string result of each output function and manually managing detoasting of toasted values. This amounts to assuming that datatype output functions never leak any memory internally; an assumption we've already decided to be bogus elsewhere, for example in COPY OUT. range_out in particular is known to leak multiple kilobytes per call, as noted in bug #8573 from Godfried Vanluffelen. While we could go in and fix that leak, it wouldn't be very notationally convenient, and in any case there have been and undoubtedly will again be other leaks in other output functions. So what seems like the best solution is to run the output functions in a temporary memory context that can be reset after each row, as we're doing in COPY OUT. Some quick experimentation suggests this is actually a tad faster than the retail pfree's anyway. This patch fixes all the variants of printtup, except for debugtup() which is used in standalone mode. It doesn't seem worth worrying about query-lifespan leaks in standalone mode, and fixing that case would be a bit tedious since debugtup() doesn't currently have any startup or shutdown functions. While at it, remove manual detoast management from several other output-function call sites that had copied it from printtup(). This doesn't make a lot of difference right now, but in view of recent discussions about supporting "non-flattened" Datums, we're going to want that code gone eventually anyway. Back-patch to 9.2 where range_out was introduced. We might eventually decide to back-patch this further, but in the absence of known major leaks in older output functions, I'll refrain for now.
* Cooperate with the Valgrind instrumentation framework.Noah Misch2013-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Valgrind "client requests" in aset.c and mcxt.c teach Valgrind and its Memcheck tool about the PostgreSQL allocator. This makes Valgrind roughly as sensitive to memory errors involving palloc chunks as it is to memory errors involving malloc chunks. Further client requests in PageAddItem() and printtup() verify that all bits being added to a buffer page or furnished to an output function are predictably-defined. Those tests catch failures of C-language functions to fully initialize the bits of a Datum, which in turn stymie optimizations that rely on _equalConst(). Define the USE_VALGRIND symbol in pg_config_manual.h to enable these additions. An included "suppression file" silences nominal errors we don't plan to fix. Reviewed in earlier versions by Peter Geoghegan and Korry Douglas.

* Clean up the API for DestReceiver objects by eliminating the assumptionTom Lane2008-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | that a Portal is a useful and sufficient additional argument for CreateDestReceiver --- it just isn't, in most cases. Instead formalize the approach of passing any needed parameters to the receiver separately. One unexpected benefit of this change is that we can declare typedef Portal in a less surprising location. This patch is just code rearrangement and doesn't change any functionality. I'll tackle the HOLD-cursor-vs-toast problem in a follow-on patch.

* Fix a bunch of problems with domains by making them use special input functionsTom Lane2006-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | that apply the necessary domain constraint checks immediately. This fixes cases where domain constraints went unchecked for statement parameters, PL function local variables and results, etc. We can also eliminate existing special cases for domains in places that had gotten it right, eg COPY. Also, allow domains over domains (base of a domain is another domain type). This almost worked before, but was disallowed because the original patch hadn't gotten it quite right.
* Modify all callers of datatype input and receive functions so that if theseTom Lane2006-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | functions are not strict, they will be called (passing a NULL first parameter) during any attempt to input a NULL value of their datatype. Currently, all our input functions are strict and so this commit does not change any behavior. However, this will make it possible to build domain input functions that centralize checking of domain constraints, thereby closing numerous holes in our domain support, as per previous discussion. While at it, I took the opportunity to introduce convenience functions InputFunctionCall, OutputFunctionCall, etc to use in code that calls I/O functions. This eliminates a lot of grotty-looking casts, but the main motivation is to make it easier to grep for these places if we ever need to touch them again.

* Merge Resdom nodes into TargetEntry nodes to simplify code and save aTom Lane2005-04-06

I also chose to eliminate the restype and restypmod fields entirely, since they are redundant with information stored in the node's contained expression; re-examining the expression at need seems simpler and more reliable than trying to keep restype/restypmod up to date. initdb forced due to change in contents of stored rules.
* Revise TupleTableSlot code to avoid unnecessary construction and disassemblyTom Lane2005-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of tuples when passing data up through multiple plan nodes. A slot can now hold either a normal "physical" HeapTuple, or a "virtual" tuple consisting of Datum/isnull arrays. Upper plan levels can usually just copy the Datum arrays, avoiding heap_formtuple() and possible subsequent nocachegetattr() calls to extract the data again. This work extends Atsushi Ogawa's earlier patch, which provided the key idea of adding Datum arrays to TupleTableSlots. (I believe however that something like this was foreseen way back in Berkeley days --- see the old comment on ExecProject.) A test case involving many levels of join of fairly wide tables (about 80 columns altogether) showed about 3x overall speedup, though simple queries will probably not be helped very much. I have also duplicated some code in heaptuple.c in order to provide versions of heap_formtuple and friends that use "bool" arrays to indicate null attributes, instead of the old convention of "char" arrays containing either 'n' or ' '. This provides a better match to the convention used by ExecEvalExpr. While I have not made a concerted effort to get rid of uses of the old routines, I think they should be deprecated and eventually removed.

| | | | | | | | | | of a composite type to get that type's OID as their second parameter, in place of typelem which is useless. The actual changes are mostly centralized in getTypeInputInfo and siblings, but I had to fix a few places that were fetching pg_type.typelem for themselves instead of using the lsyscache.c routines. Also, I renamed all the related variables from 'typelem' to 'typioparam' to discourage people from assuming that they necessarily contain array element types.
* Resurrect heap_deformtuple(), this time implemented as a singly nestedTom Lane2004-06-04
| | | | | | | | | | loop over the fields instead of a loop around heap_getattr. This is considerably faster (O(N) instead of O(N^2)) when there are nulls or varlena fields, since those prevent use of attcacheoff. Replace loops over heap_getattr with heap_deformtuple in situations where all or most of the fields have to be fetched, such as printtup and tuptoaster. Profiling done more than a year ago shows that this should be a nice win for situations involving many-column tables.
* Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend.Neil Conway2004-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Depending on the physical tuple's column count is not really correct, since according to heap_getattr() conventions the tuple may be short some columns, which will automatically get read as nulls.

* Restructure command destination handling so that we pass aroundTom Lane2003-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | DestReceiver pointers instead of just CommandDest values. The DestReceiver is made at the point where the destination is selected, rather than deep inside the executor. This cleans up the original kluge implementation of tstoreReceiver.c, and makes it easy to support retrieving results from utility statements inside portals. Thus, you can now do fun things like Bind and Execute a FETCH or EXPLAIN command, and it'll all work as expected (e.g., you can Describe the portal, or use Execute's count parameter to suspend the output partway through). Implementation involves stuffing the utility command's output into a Tuplestore, which would be kind of annoying for huge output sets, but should be quite acceptable for typical uses of utility commands.
