* Allow plugins to set a 64-bit plan identifier in PlannedStmtMichael Paquier2025-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This field can be optionally set in a PlannedStmt through the planner hook, giving extensions the possibility to assign an identifier related to a computed plan. The backend is changed to report it in the backend entry of a process running (including the extended query protocol), with semantics and APIs to set or get it similar to what is used for the existing query ID (introduced in the backend via 4f0b0966c8). The plan ID is reset at the same timing as the query ID. Currently, this information is not added to the system view pg_stat_activity; extensions can access it through PgBackendStatus. Some patches have been proposed to provide some features in the planning area, where a plan identifier is used as a key to know the plan involved (for statistics, plan storage and manipulations, etc.), and the point of this commit is to provide an anchor in the backend that extensions can rely on for future work. The reset of the plan identifier is controlled by core and follows the same pattern as the query identifier added in 4f0b0966c8. The contents of this commit are extracted from a larger set proposed originally by Lukas Fittl, that Sami Imseih has proposed as an independent change, with a few tweaks sprinkled by me.

* Show index search count in EXPLAIN ANALYZE, take 2.Peter Geoghegan2025-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Expose the count of index searches/index descents in EXPLAIN ANALYZE's output for index scan/index-only scan/bitmap index scan nodes. This information is particularly useful with scans that use ScalarArrayOp quals, where the number of index searches can be unpredictable due to implementation details that interact with physical index characteristics (at least with nbtree SAOP scans, since Postgres 17 commit 5bf748b8). The information shown also provides useful context when EXPLAIN ANALYZE runs a plan with an index scan node that successfully applied the skip scan optimization (set to be added to nbtree by an upcoming patch). The instrumentation works by teaching all index AMs to increment a new nsearches counter whenever a new index search begins. The counter is incremented at exactly the same point that index AMs already increment the pg_stat_*_indexes.idx_scan counter (we're counting the same event, but at the scan level rather than the relation level). Parallel queries have workers copy their local counter struct into shared memory when an index scan node ends -- even when it isn't a parallel aware scan node. An earlier version of this patch that only worked with parallel aware scans became commit 5ead85fb (though that was quickly reverted by commit d00107cd following "debug_parallel_query=regress" buildfarm failures). Our approach doesn't match the approach used when tracking other index scan related costs (e.g., "Rows Removed by Filter:"). It is comparable to the approach used in similar cases involving costs that are only readily accessible inside an access method, not from the executor proper (e.g., "Heap Blocks:" output for a Bitmap Heap Scan, which was recently enhanced to show per-worker costs by commit 5a1e6df3, using essentially the same scheme as the one used here). It is necessary for index AMs to have direct responsibility for maintaining the new counter, since the counter might need to be incremented multiple times per amgettuple call (or per amgetbitmap call). But it is also necessary for the executor proper to manage the shared memory now used to transfer each worker's counter struct to the leader.

* Don't lock partitions pruned by initial pruningAmit Langote2025-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before executing a cached generic plan, AcquireExecutorLocks() in plancache.c locks all relations in a plan's range table to ensure the plan is safe for execution. However, this locks runtime-prunable relations that will later be pruned during "initial" runtime pruning, introducing unnecessary overhead. This commit defers locking for such relations to executor startup and ensures that if the CachedPlan is invalidated due to concurrent DDL during this window, replanning is triggered. Deferring these locks avoids unnecessary locking overhead for pruned partitions, resulting in significant speedup, particularly when many partitions are pruned during initial runtime pruning. * Changes to locking when executing generic plans: AcquireExecutorLocks() now locks only unprunable relations, that is, those found in PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids (introduced in commit cbc127917e), to avoid locking runtime-prunable partitions unnecessarily. The remaining locks are taken by ExecDoInitialPruning(), which acquires them only for partitions that survive pruning. This deferral does not affect the locks required for permission checking in InitPlan(), which takes place before initial pruning. ExecCheckPermissions() now includes an Assert to verify that all relations undergoing permission checks, none of which can be in the set of runtime-prunable relations, are properly locked. * Plan invalidation handling: Deferring locks introduces a window where prunable relations may be altered by concurrent DDL, invalidating the plan. A new function, ExecutorStartCachedPlan(), wraps ExecutorStart() to detect and handle invalidation caused by deferred locking. If invalidation occurs, ExecutorStartCachedPlan() updates CachedPlan using the new UpdateCachedPlan() function and retries execution with the updated plan. To ensure all code paths that may be affected by this handle invalidation properly, all callers of ExecutorStart that may execute a PlannedStmt from a CachedPlan have been updated to use ExecutorStartCachedPlan() instead. UpdateCachedPlan() replaces stale plans in CachedPlan.stmt_list. A new CachedPlan.stmt_context, created as a child of CachedPlan.context, allows freeing old PlannedStmts while preserving the CachedPlan structure and its statement list. This ensures that loops over statements in upstream callers of ExecutorStartCachedPlan() remain intact. ExecutorStart() and ExecutorStart_hook implementations now return a boolean value indicating whether plan initialization succeeded with a valid PlanState tree in QueryDesc.planstate, or false otherwise, in which case QueryDesc.planstate is NULL. Hook implementations are required to call standard_ExecutorStart() at the beginning, and if it returns false, they should do the same without proceeding. * Testing: To verify these changes, the delay_execution module tests scenarios where cached plans become invalid due to changes in prunable relations after deferred locks. * Note to extension authors: ExecutorStart_hook implementations must verify plan validity after calling standard_ExecutorStart(), as explained earlier. For example: if (prev_ExecutorStart) plan_valid = prev_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags); else plan_valid = standard_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags); if (!plan_valid) return false; <extension-code> return true; Extensions accessing child relations, especially prunable partitions, via ExecGetRangeTableRelation() must now ensure their RT indexes are present in es_unpruned_relids (introduced in commit cbc127917e), or they will encounter an error. This is a strict requirement after this change, as only relations in that set are locked. The idea of deferring some locks to executor startup, allowing locks for prunable partitions to be skipped, was first proposed by Tom Lane.

* Track unpruned relids to avoid processing pruned relationsAmit Langote2025-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces changes to track unpruned relations explicitly, making it possible for top-level plan nodes, such as ModifyTable and LockRows, to avoid processing partitions pruned during initial pruning. Scan-level nodes, such as Append and MergeAppend, already avoid the unnecessary processing by accessing partition pruning results directly via part_prune_index. In contrast, top-level nodes cannot access pruning results directly and need to determine which partitions remain unpruned. To address this, this commit introduces a new bitmapset field, es_unpruned_relids, which the executor uses to track the set of unpruned relations. This field is referenced during plan initialization to skip initializing certain nodes for pruned partitions. It is initialized with PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids, a new field that the planner populates with RT indexes of relations that cannot be pruned during runtime pruning. These include relations not subject to partition pruning and those required for execution regardless of pruning. PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids is computed during set_plan_refs() by removing the RT indexes of runtime-prunable relations, identified from PartitionPruneInfos, from the full set of relation RT indexes. ExecDoInitialPruning() then updates es_unpruned_relids by adding partitions that survive initial pruning. To support this, PartitionedRelPruneInfo and PartitionedRelPruningData now include a leafpart_rti_map[] array that maps partition indexes to their corresponding RT indexes. The former is used in set_plan_refs() when constructing unprunableRelids, while the latter is used in ExecDoInitialPruning() to convert partition indexes returned by get_matching_partitions() into RT indexes, which are then added to es_unpruned_relids. These changes make it possible for ModifyTable and LockRows nodes to process only relations that remain unpruned after initial pruning. ExecInitModifyTable() trims lists, such as resultRelations, withCheckOptionLists, returningLists, and updateColnosLists, to consider only unpruned partitions. It also creates ResultRelInfo structs only for these partitions. Similarly, child RowMarks for pruned relations are skipped. By avoiding unnecessary initialization of structures for pruned partitions, these changes improve the performance of updates and deletes on partitioned tables during initial runtime pruning. Due to ExecInitModifyTable() changes as described above, EXPLAIN on a plan for UPDATE and DELETE that uses runtime initial pruning no longer lists partitions pruned during initial pruning.

* Move PartitionPruneInfo out of plan nodes into PlannedStmtAmit Langote2025-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves PartitionPruneInfo from plan nodes to PlannedStmt, simplifying traversal by centralizing all PartitionPruneInfo structures in a single list in it, which holds all instances for the main query and its subqueries. Instead of plan nodes (Append or MergeAppend) storing PartitionPruneInfo pointers, they now reference an index in this list. A bitmapset field is added to PartitionPruneInfo to store the RT indexes corresponding to the apprelids field in Append or MergeAppend. This allows execution pruning logic to verify that it operates on the correct plan node, mainly to facilitate debugging. Duplicated code in set_append_references() and set_mergeappend_references() is refactored into a new function, register_pruneinfo(). This updates RT indexes by applying rtoffet and adds PartitionPruneInfo to the global list in PlannerGlobal. By allowing pruning to be performed without traversing the plan tree, this change lays the groundwork for runtime initial pruning to occur independently of plan tree initialization.

* Simplify executor's determination of whether to use parallelism.Tom Lane2024-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our parallel-mode code only works when we are executing a query in full, so ExecutePlan must disable parallel mode when it is asked to do partial execution. The previous logic for this involved passing down a flag (variously named execute_once or run_once) from callers of ExecutorRun or PortalRun. This is overcomplicated, and unsurprisingly some of the callers didn't get it right, since it requires keeping state that not all of them have handy; not to mention that the requirements for it were undocumented. That led to assertion failures in some corner cases. The only state we really need for this is the existing QueryDesc.already_executed flag, so let's just put all the responsibility in ExecutePlan. (It could have been done in ExecutorRun too, leading to a slightly shorter patch -- but if there's ever more than one caller of ExecutePlan, it seems better to have this logic in the subroutine than the callers.) This makes those ExecutorRun/PortalRun parameters unnecessary. In master it seems okay to just remove them, returning the API for those functions to what it was before parallelism. Such an API break is clearly not okay in stable branches, but for them we can just leave the parameters in place after documenting that they do nothing. Per report from Yugo Nagata, who also reviewed and tested this patch. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20241206062549.710dc01cf91224809dd6c0e1@sraoss.co.jp
* Show Parallel Bitmap Heap Scan worker stats in EXPLAIN ANALYZEDavid Rowley2024-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nodes like Memoize report the cache stats for each parallel worker, so it makes sense to show the exact and lossy pages in Parallel Bitmap Heap Scan in a similar way. Likewise, Sort shows the method and memory used for each worker. There was some discussion on whether the leader stats should include the totals for each parallel worker or not. I did some analysis on this to see what other parallel node types do and it seems only Parallel Hash does anything like this. All the rest, per what's supported by ExecParallelRetrieveInstrumentation() are consistent with each other.

* Remove redundant snapshot copying from parallel leader to workersHeikki Linnakangas2024-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The parallel query infrastructure copies the leader backend's active snapshot to the worker processes. But BitmapHeapScan node also had bespoken code to pass the snapshot from leader to the worker. That was redundant, so remove it. The removed code was analogous to the snapshot serialization in table_parallelscan_initialize(), but that was the wrong role model. A parallel bitmap heap scan is more like an independent non-parallel bitmap heap scan in each parallel worker as far as the table AM is concerned, because the coordination is done in nodeBitmapHeapscan.c, and the table AM doesn't need to know anything about it. This relies on the assumption that es_snapshot == GetActiveSnapshot(). That's not a new assumption, things would get weird if you used the QueryDesc's snapshot for visibility checks in the scans, but the active snapshot for evaluating quals, for example. This could use some refactoring and cleanup, but for now, just add some assertions.

* Rework query relation permission checkingAlvaro Herrera2022-12-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, information about the permissions to be checked on relations mentioned in a query is stored in their range table entries. So the executor must scan the entire range table looking for relations that need to have permissions checked. This can make the permission checking part of the executor initialization needlessly expensive when many inheritance children are present in the range range. While the permissions need not be checked on the individual child relations, the executor still must visit every range table entry to filter them out. This commit moves the permission checking information out of the range table entries into a new plan node called RTEPermissionInfo. Every top-level (inheritance "root") RTE_RELATION entry in the range table gets one and a list of those is maintained alongside the range table. This new list is initialized by the parser when initializing the range table. The rewriter can add more entries to it as rules/views are expanded. Finally, the planner combines the lists of the individual subqueries into one flat list that is passed to the executor for checking. To make it quick to find the RTEPermissionInfo entry belonging to a given relation, RangeTblEntry gets a new Index field 'perminfoindex' that stores the corresponding RTEPermissionInfo's index in the query's list of the latter. ExecutorCheckPerms_hook has gained another List * argument; the signature is now: typedef bool (*ExecutorCheckPerms_hook_type) (List *rangeTable, List *rtePermInfos, bool ereport_on_violation); The first argument is no longer used by any in-core uses of the hook, but we leave it in place because there may be other implementations that do. Implementations should likely scan the rtePermInfos list to determine which operations to allow or deny.

What gets set instead in the latter is an index field which points to the list element of PlannedStmt.partPruneInfos containing the PartitioPruneInfo belonging to the plan node. A later commit will make AcquireExecutorLocks() do the initial partition pruning to determine a minimal set of partitions to be locked when validating a plan tree and it will need to consult the PartitioPruneInfos referenced therein to do so. It would be better for the PartitioPruneInfos to be accessible directly than requiring a walk of the plan tree to find them, which is easier when it can be done by simply iterating over PlannedStmt.partPruneInfos.

* Add Result Cache executor node (take 2)David Rowley2021-04-02

The planner can include this node type in the plan to have the executor cache the results from the inner side of parameterized nested loop joins. This allows caching of tuples for sets of parameters so that in the event that the node sees the same parameter values again, it can just return the cached tuples instead of rescanning the inner side of the join all over again. Internally, result cache uses a hash table in order to quickly find tuples that have been previously cached. For certain data sets, this can significantly improve the performance of joins. The best cases for using this new node type are for join problems where a large portion of the tuples from the inner side of the join have no join partner on the outer side of the join. In such cases, hash join would have to hash values that are never looked up, thus bloating the hash table and possibly causing it to multi-batch. Merge joins would have to skip over all of the unmatched rows. If we use a nested loop join with a result cache, then we only cache tuples that have at least one join partner on the outer side of the join. The benefits of using a parameterized nested loop with a result cache increase when there are fewer distinct values being looked up and the number of lookups of each value is large. Also, hash probes to lookup the cache can be much faster than the hash probe in a hash join as it's common that the result cache's hash table is much smaller than the hash join's due to result cache only caching useful tuples rather than all tuples from the inner side of the join. This variation in hash probe performance is more significant when the hash join's hash table no longer fits into the CPU's L3 cache, but the result cache's hash table does. The apparent "random" access of hash buckets with each hash probe can cause a poor L3 cache hit ratio for large hash tables. Smaller hash tables generally perform better. The hash table used for the cache limits itself to not exceeding work_mem * hash_mem_multiplier in size. We maintain a dlist of keys for this cache and when we're adding new tuples and realize we've exceeded the memory budget, we evict cache entries starting with the least recently used ones until we have enough memory to add the new tuples to the cache. For parameterized nested loop joins, we now consider using one of these result cache nodes in between the nested loop node and its inner node. We determine when this might be useful based on cost, which is primarily driven off of what the expected cache hit ratio will be. Estimating the cache hit ratio relies on having good distinct estimates on the nested loop's parameters. For now, the planner will only consider using a result cache for parameterized nested loop joins. This works for both normal joins and also for LATERAL type joins to subqueries. It is possible to use this new node for other uses in the future. For example, to cache results from correlated subqueries. However, that's not done here due to some difficulties obtaining a distinct estimation on the outer plan to calculate the estimated cache hit ratio. Currently we plan the inner plan before planning the outer plan so there is no good way to know if a result cache would be useful or not since we can't estimate the number of times the subplan will be called until the outer plan is generated. The functionality being added here is newly introducing a dependency on the return value of estimate_num_groups() during the join search. Previously, during the join search, we only ever needed to perform selectivity estimations. With this commit, we need to use estimate_num_groups() in order to estimate what the hit ratio on the result cache will be. In simple terms, if we expect 10 distinct values and we expect 1000 outer rows, then we'll estimate the hit ratio to be 99%. Since cache hits are very cheap compared to scanning the underlying nodes on the inner side of the nested loop join, then this will significantly reduce the planner's cost for the join. However, it's fairly easy to see here that things will go bad when estimate_num_groups() incorrectly returns a value that's significantly lower than the actual number of distinct values. If this happens then that may cause us to make use of a nested loop join with a result cache instead of some other join type, such as a merge or hash join. Our distinct estimations have been known to be a source of trouble in the past, so the extra reliance on them here could cause the planner to choose slower plans than it did previous to having this feature. Distinct estimations are also fairly hard to estimate accurately when several tables have been joined already or when a WHERE clause filters out a set of values that are correlated to the expressions we're estimating the number of distinct value for. For now, the costing we perform during query planning for result caches does put quite a bit of faith in the distinct estimations being accurate. When these are accurate then we should generally see faster execution times for plans containing a result cache. However, in the real world, we may find that we need to either change the costings to put less trust in the distinct estimations being accurate or perhaps even disable this feature by default. There's always an element of risk when we teach the query planner to do new tricks that it decides to use that new trick at the wrong time and causes a regression. Users may opt to get the old behavior by turning the feature off using the enable_resultcache GUC. Currently, this is enabled by default. It remains to be seen if we'll maintain that setting for the release. Additionally, the name "Result Cache" is the best name I could think of for this new node at the time I started writing the patch. Nobody seems to strongly dislike the name. A few people did suggest other names but no other name seemed to dominate in the brief discussion that there was about names.

It's not yet clear what the problem is as other parts of the plan indicate that the cache did work correctly, it's just the hits and misses that were being reported as 0. This is especially a bad time to have the buildfarm so broken, so reverting before too many more animals go red.

* Add Result Cache executor nodeDavid Rowley2021-04-01

The planner can include this node type in the plan to have the executor cache the results from the inner side of parameterized nested loop joins. This allows caching of tuples for sets of parameters so that in the event that the node sees the same parameter values again, it can just return the cached tuples instead of rescanning the inner side of the join all over again. Internally, result cache uses a hash table in order to quickly find tuples that have been previously cached. For certain data sets, this can significantly improve the performance of joins. The best cases for using this new node type are for join problems where a large portion of the tuples from the inner side of the join have no join partner on the outer side of the join. In such cases, hash join would have to hash values that are never looked up, thus bloating the hash table and possibly causing it to multi-batch. Merge joins would have to skip over all of the unmatched rows. If we use a nested loop join with a result cache, then we only cache tuples that have at least one join partner on the outer side of the join. The benefits of using a parameterized nested loop with a result cache increase when there are fewer distinct values being looked up and the number of lookups of each value is large.

* Create ResultRelInfos later in InitPlan, index them by RT index.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of allocating all the ResultRelInfos upfront in one big array, allocate them in ExecInitModifyTable(). es_result_relations is now an array of ResultRelInfo pointers, rather than an array of structs, and it is indexed by the RT index. This simplifies things: we get rid of the separate concept of a "result rel index", and don't need to set it in setrefs.c anymore. This also allows follow-up optimizations (not included in this commit yet) to skip initializing ResultRelInfos for target relations that were not needed at runtime, and removal of the es_result_relation_info pointer. The EState arrays of regular result rels and root result rels are merged into one array. Similarly, the resultRelations and rootResultRelations lists in PlannedStmt are merged into one. It's not actually clear to me why they were kept separate in the first place, but now that the es_result_relations array is indexed by RT index, it certainly seems pointless. The PlannedStmt->resultRelations list is now only needed for ExecRelationIsTargetRelation(). One visible effect of this change is that ExecRelationIsTargetRelation() will now return 'true' also for the partition root, if a partitioned table is updated. That seems like a good thing, although the function isn't used in core code, and I don't see any reason for an FDW to call it on a partition root.

* Implement Incremental SortTomas Vondra2020-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Incremental Sort is an optimized variant of multikey sort for cases when the input is already sorted by a prefix of the requested sort keys. For example when the relation is already sorted by (key1, key2) and we need to sort it by (key1, key2, key3) we can simply split the input rows into groups having equal values in (key1, key2), and only sort/compare the remaining column key3. This has a number of benefits: - Reduced memory consumption, because only a single group (determined by values in the sorted prefix) needs to be kept in memory. This may also eliminate the need to spill to disk. - Lower startup cost, because Incremental Sort produce results after each prefix group, which is beneficial for plans where startup cost matters (like for example queries with LIMIT clause). We consider both Sort and Incremental Sort, and decide based on costing. The implemented algorithm operates in two different modes: - Fetching a minimum number of tuples without check of equality on the prefix keys, and sorting on all columns when safe. - Fetching all tuples for a single prefix group and then sorting by comparing only the remaining (non-prefix) keys. We always start in the first mode, and employ a heuristic to switch into the second mode if we believe it's beneficial - the goal is to minimize the number of unnecessary comparions while keeping memory consumption below work_mem. This is a very old patch series. The idea was originally proposed by Alexander Korotkov back in 2013, and then revived in 2017. In 2018 the patch was taken over by James Coleman, who wrote and rewrote most of the current code. There were many reviewers/contributors since 2013 - I've done my best to pick the most active ones, and listed them in this commit message.

* Add infrastructure to track WAL usage.Amit Kapila2020-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows gathering the WAL generation statistics for each statement execution. The three statistics that we collect are the number of WAL records, the number of full page writes and the amount of WAL bytes generated. This helps the users who have write-intensive workload to see the impact of I/O due to WAL. This further enables us to see approximately what percentage of overall WAL is due to full page writes. In the future, we can extend this functionality to allow us to compute the the exact amount of WAL data due to full page writes. This patch in itself is just an infrastructure to compute WAL usage data. The upcoming patches will expose this data via explain, auto_explain, pg_stat_statements and verbose (auto)vacuum output.

* Further adjust EXPLAIN's choices of table alias names.Tom Lane2019-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch causes EXPLAIN to always assign a separate table alias to the parent RTE of an append relation (inheritance set); before, such RTEs were ignored if not actually scanned by the plan. Since the child RTEs now always have that same alias to start with (cf. commit 55a1954da), the net effect is that the parent RTE usually gets the alias used or implied by the query text, and the children all get that alias with "_N" appended. (The exception to "usually" is if there are duplicate aliases in different subtrees of the original query; then some of those original RTEs will also have "_N" appended.) This results in more uniform output for partitioned-table plans than we had before: the partitioned table itself gets the original alias, and all child tables have aliases with "_N", rather than the previous behavior where one of the children would get an alias without "_N". The reason for giving the parent RTE an alias, even if it isn't scanned by the plan, is that we now use the parent's alias to qualify Vars that refer to an appendrel output column and appear above the Append or MergeAppend that computes the appendrel. But below the append, Vars refer to some one of the child relations, and are displayed that way. This seems clearer than the old behavior where a Var that could carry values from any child relation was displayed as if it referred to only one of them. While at it, change ruleutils.c so that the code paths used by EXPLAIN deal in Plan trees not PlanState trees. This effectively reverts a decision made in commit 1cc29fe7c, which seemed like a good idea at the time to make ruleutils.c consistent with explain.c. However, it's problematic because we'd really like to allow executor startup pruning to remove all the children of an append node when possible, leaving no child PlanState to resolve Vars against. (That's not done here, but will be in the next patch.) This requires different handling of subplans and initplans than before, but is otherwise a pretty straightforward change.

* Enable parallel query with SERIALIZABLE isolation.Thomas Munro2019-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the SERIALIZABLE isolation level prevented parallel query from being used. Allow the two features to be used together by sharing the leader's SERIALIZABLEXACT with parallel workers. An extra per-SERIALIZABLEXACT LWLock is introduced to make it safe to share, and new logic is introduced to coordinate the early release of the SERIALIZABLEXACT required for the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE optimization, as follows: The first backend to observe the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE flag (set by some other transaction) will 'partially release' the SERIALIZABLEXACT, meaning that the conflicts and locks it holds are released, but the SERIALIZABLEXACT itself will remain active because other backends might still have a pointer to it. Whenever any backend notices the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE flag, it clears its own MySerializableXact variable and frees local resources so that it can skip SSI checks for the rest of the transaction. In the special case of the leader process, it transfers the SERIALIZABLEXACT to a new variable SavedSerializableXact, so that it can be completely released at the end of the transaction after all workers have exited. Remove the serializable_okay flag added to CreateParallelContext() by commit 9da0cc35, because it's now redundant.

This is intended to provide the whole planner API seen by most of the rest of the system; although FDWs still need to use additional stuff, and more thought is also needed about just what selfuncs.c should rely on. The main point of doing this now is to limit the amount of new #include baggage that will be needed by "planner support functions", which I expect to introduce later, and which will be in relevant datatype modules rather than anywhere near the planner. This commit just moves relevant declarations into optimizer.h from other header files (a couple of which go away because everything got moved), and adjusts #include lists to match. There's further cleanup that could be done if we want to decide that some stuff being exposed by optimizer.h doesn't belong in the planner at all, but I'll leave that for another day.

* Fix failure with initplans used conditionally during EvalPlanQual rechecks.Tom Lane2018-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The EvalPlanQual machinery assumes that any initplans (that is, uncorrelated sub-selects) used during an EPQ recheck would have already been evaluated during the main query; this is implicit in the fact that execPlan pointers are not copied into the EPQ estate's es_param_exec_vals. But it's possible for that assumption to fail, if the initplan is only reached conditionally. For example, a sub-select inside a CASE expression could be reached during a recheck when it had not been previously, if the CASE test depends on a column that was just updated. This bug is old, appearing to date back to my rewrite of EvalPlanQual in commit 9f2ee8f28, but was not detected until Kyle Samson reported a case. To fix, force all not-yet-evaluated initplans used within the EPQ plan subtree to be evaluated at the start of the recheck, before entering the EPQ environment. This could be inefficient, if such an initplan is expensive and goes unused again during the recheck --- but that's piling one layer of improbability atop another. It doesn't seem worth adding more complexity to prevent that, at least not in the back branches. It was convenient to use the new-in-v11 ExecEvalParamExecParams function to implement this, but I didn't like either its name or the specifics of its API, so revise that. Back-patch all the way. Rather than rewrite the patch to avoid depending on bms_next_member() in the oldest branches, I chose to back-patch that function into 9.4 and 9.3. (This isn't the first time back-patches have needed that, and it exhausted my patience.) I also chose to back-patch some test cases added by commits 71404af2a and 342a1ffa2 into 9.4 and 9.3, so that the 9.x versions of eval-plan-qual.spec are all the same. Andrew Gierth diagnosed the problem and contributed the added test cases, though the actual code changes are by me.

* Match the buffer usage tracking for leader and worker backends.Amit Kapila2018-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In the leader backend, we don't track the buffer usage for ExecutorStart phase whereas in worker backend we track it for ExecutorStart phase as well. This leads to different value for buffer usage stats for the parallel and non-parallel query. Change the code so that worker backend also starts tracking buffer usage after ExecutorStart.

* Basic planner and executor integration for JIT.Andres Freund2018-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds simple cost based plan time decision about whether JIT should be performed. jit_above_cost, jit_optimize_above_cost are compared with the total cost of a plan, and if the cost is above them JIT is performed / optimization is performed respectively. For that PlannedStmt and EState have a jitFlags (es_jit_flags) field that stores information about what JIT operations should be performed. EState now also has a new es_jit field, which can store a JitContext. When there are no errors the context is released in standard_ExecutorEnd(). It is likely that the default values for jit_[optimize_]above_cost will need to be adapted further, but in my test these values seem to work reasonably.
