* Fix crash when logical decoding is invoked from a PL function.Tom Lane2017-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logical decoding functions do BeginInternalSubTransaction and RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction to clean up after themselves. It turns out that AtEOSubXact_SPI has an unrecognized assumption that we always need to cancel the active SPI operation in the SPI context that surrounds the subtransaction (if there is one). That's true when the RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction call is coming from the SPI-using function itself, but not when it's happening inside some unrelated function invoked by a SPI query. In practice the affected callers are the various PLs. To fix, record the current subtransaction ID when we begin a SPI operation, and clean up only if that ID is the subtransaction being canceled. Also, remove AtEOSubXact_SPI's assertion that it must have cleaned up the surrounding SPI context's active tuptable. That's proven wrong by the same test case. Also clarify (or, if you prefer, reinterpret) the calling conventions for _SPI_begin_call and _SPI_end_call. The memory context cleanup in the latter means that these have always had the flavor of a matched resource-management pair, but they weren't documented that way before. Per report from Ben Chobot. Back-patch to 9.4 where logical decoding came in. In principle, the SPI changes should go all the way back, since the problem dates back to commit 7ec1c5a86. But given the lack of field complaints it seems few people are using internal subtransactions in this way. So I don't feel a need to take any risks in 9.2/9.3.

* Fix intra-query memory leakage in nodeProjectSet.c.Tom Lane2017-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | Both ExecMakeFunctionResultSet() and evaluation of simple expressions need to be done in the per-tuple memory context, not per-query, else we leak data until end of query. This is a consideration that was missed while refactoring code in the ProjectSet patch (note that in pre-v10, ExecMakeFunctionResult is called in the per-tuple context). Per bug #14843 from Ben M. Diagnosed independently by Andres and myself. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20171005230321.28561.15927@wrigleys.postgresql.org
* Fix traversal of half-frozen update chainsAlvaro Herrera2017-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When some tuple versions in an update chain are frozen due to them being older than freeze_min_age, the xmax/xmin trail can become broken. This breaks HOT (and probably other things). A subsequent VACUUM can break things in more serious ways, such as leaving orphan heap-only tuples whose root HOT redirect items were removed. This can be seen because index creation (or REINDEX) complain like ERROR: XX000: failed to find parent tuple for heap-only tuple at (0,7) in table "t" Because of relfrozenxid contraints, we cannot avoid the freezing of the early tuples, so we must cope with the results: whenever we see an Xmin of FrozenTransactionId, consider it a match for whatever the previous Xmax value was. This problem seems to have appeared in 9.3 with multixact changes, though strictly speaking it seems unrelated. Since 9.4 we have commit 37484ad2a "Change the way we mark tuples as frozen", so the fix is simple: just compare the raw Xmin (still stored in the tuple header, since freezing merely set an infomask bit) to the Xmax. But in 9.3 we rewrite the Xmin value to FrozenTransactionId, so the original value is lost and we have nothing to compare the Xmax with. To cope with that case we need to compare the Xmin with FrozenXid, assume it's a match, and hope for the best. Sadly, since you can pg_upgrade a 9.3 instance containing half-frozen pages to newer releases, we need to keep the old check in newer versions too, which seems a bit brittle; I hope we can somehow get rid of that. I didn't optimize the new function for performance. The new coding is probably a bit slower than before, since there is a function call rather than a straight comparison, but I'd rather have it work correctly than be fast but wrong. This is a followup after 20b655224249 fixed a few related problems. Apparently, in 9.6 and up there are more ways to get into trouble, but in 9.3 - 9.5 I cannot reproduce a problem anymore with this patch, so there must be a separate bug.

* Support arrays over domains.Tom Lane2017-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allowing arrays with a domain type as their element type was left un-done in the original domain patch, but not for any very good reason. This omission leads to such surprising results as array_agg() not working on a domain column, because the parser can't identify a suitable output type for the polymorphic aggregate. In order to fix this, first clean up the APIs of coerce_to_domain() and some internal functions in parse_coerce.c so that we consistently pass around a CoercionContext along with CoercionForm. Previously, we sometimes passed an "isExplicit" boolean flag instead, which is strictly less information; and coerce_to_domain() didn't even get that, but instead had to reverse-engineer isExplicit from CoercionForm. That's contrary to the documentation in primnodes.h that says that CoercionForm only affects display and not semantics. I don't think this change fixes any live bugs, but it makes things more consistent. The main reason for doing it though is that now build_coercion_expression() receives ccontext, which it needs in order to be able to recursively invoke coerce_to_target_type(). Next, reimplement ArrayCoerceExpr so that the node does not directly know any details of what has to be done to the individual array elements while performing the array coercion. Instead, the per-element processing is represented by a sub-expression whose input is a source array element and whose output is a target array element. This simplifies life in parse_coerce.c, because it can build that sub-expression by a recursive invocation of coerce_to_target_type(). The executor now handles the per-element processing as a compiled expression instead of hard-wired code. The main advantage of this is that we can use a single ArrayCoerceExpr to handle as many as three successive steps per element: base type conversion, typmod coercion, and domain constraint checking. The old code used two stacked ArrayCoerceExprs to handle type + typmod coercion, which was pretty inefficient, and adding yet another array deconstruction to do domain constraint checking seemed very unappetizing. In the case where we just need a single, very simple coercion function, doing this straightforwardly leads to a noticeable increase in the per-array-element runtime cost. Hence, add an additional shortcut evalfunc in execExprInterp.c that skips unnecessary overhead for that specific form of expression. The runtime speed of simple cases is within 1% or so of where it was before, while cases that previously required two levels of array processing are significantly faster. Finally, create an implicit array type for every domain type, as we do for base types, enums, etc. Everything except the array-coercion case seems to just work without further effort.

* Marginal improvement for generated code in execExprInterp.c.Tom Lane2017-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid the coding pattern "*op->resvalue = f();", as some compilers think that requires them to evaluate "op->resvalue" before the function call. Unless there are lots of free registers, this can lead to a useless register spill and reload across the call. I changed all the cases like this in ExecInterpExpr(), but didn't bother in the out-of-line opcode eval subroutines, since those are presumably not as performance-critical.

* Make construct_[md_]array return a valid empty array for zero-size input.Tom Lane2017-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If construct_array() or construct_md_array() were given a dimension of zero, they'd produce an array that contains no elements but has positive dimension. This violates a general expectation that empty arrays should have ndims = 0; in particular, while arrays like this print as empty, they don't compare equal to other empty arrays. Up to now we've expected callers to avoid making such calls and instead be careful to call construct_empty_array() if there would be no elements. But this has always been an easily missed case, and we've repeatedly had to fix callers to do it right. In bug #14826, Erwin Brandstetter pointed out yet another such oversight, in ts_lexize(); and a bit of examination of other call sites found at least two more with similar issues. So let's fix the problem centrally and permanently by changing these two functions to construct a proper zero-D empty array whenever the array would be empty. This renders a few explicit calls of construct_empty_array() redundant, but the only such place I found that really seemed worth changing was in ExecEvalArrayExpr(). Although this fixes some very old bugs, no back-patch: the problem is pretty minor and the risk of changing behavior seems to outweigh the benefit in stable branches.

* Fix SQL-spec incompatibilities in new transition table feature.Tom Lane2017-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The standard says that all changes of the same kind (insert, update, or delete) caused in one table by a single SQL statement should be reported in a single transition table; and by that, they mean to include foreign key enforcement actions cascading from the statement's direct effects. It's also reasonable to conclude that if the standard had wCTEs, they would say that effects of wCTEs applying to the same table as each other or the outer statement should be merged into one transition table. We weren't doing it like that. Hence, arrange to merge tuples from multiple update actions into a single transition table as much as we can. There is a problem, which is that if the firing of FK enforcement triggers and after-row triggers with transition tables is interspersed, we might need to report more tuples after some triggers have already seen the transition table. It seems like a bad idea for the transition table to be mutable between trigger calls. There's no good way around this without a major redesign of the FK logic, so for now, resolve it by opening a new transition table each time this happens. Also, ensure that AFTER STATEMENT triggers fire just once per statement, or once per transition table when we're forced to make more than one. Previous versions of Postgres have allowed each FK enforcement query to cause an additional firing of the AFTER STATEMENT triggers for the referencing table, but that's certainly not per spec. (We're still doing multiple firings of BEFORE STATEMENT triggers, though; is that something worth changing?) Also, forbid using transition tables with column-specific UPDATE triggers. The spec requires such transition tables to show only the tuples for which the UPDATE trigger would have fired, which means maintaining multiple transition tables or else somehow filtering the contents at readout. Maybe someday we'll bother to support that option, but it looks like a lot of trouble for a marginal feature. The transition tables are now managed by the AfterTriggers data structures, rather than being directly the responsibility of ModifyTable nodes. This removes a subtransaction-lifespan memory leak introduced by my previous band-aid patch 3c4359521. In passing, refactor the AfterTriggers data structures to reduce the management overhead for them, by using arrays of structs rather than several parallel arrays for per-query-level and per-subtransaction state. I failed to resist the temptation to do some copy-editing on the SGML docs about triggers, above and beyond merely documenting the effects of this patch. Back-patch to v10, because we don't want the semantics of transition tables to change post-release. Patch by me, with help and review from Thomas Munro.

* Quick-hack fix for foreign key cascade vs triggers with transition tables.Tom Lane2017-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AFTER triggers using transition tables crashed if they were fired due to a foreign key ON CASCADE update. This is because ExecEndModifyTable flushes the transition tables, on the assumption that any trigger that could need them was already fired during ExecutorFinish. Normally that's true, because we don't allow transition-table-using triggers to be deferred. However, foreign key CASCADE updates force any triggers on the referencing table to be deferred to the outer query level, by means of the EXEC_FLAG_SKIP_TRIGGERS flag. I don't recall all the details of why it's like that and am pretty loath to redesign it right now. Instead, just teach ExecEndModifyTable to skip destroying the TransitionCaptureState when that flag is set. This will allow the transition table data to survive until end of the current subtransaction. This isn't a terribly satisfactory solution, because (1) we might be leaking the transition tables for much longer than really necessary, and (2) as things stand, an AFTER STATEMENT trigger will fire once per RI updating query, ie once per row updated or deleted in the referenced table. I suspect that is not per SQL spec. But redesigning this is a research project that we're certainly not going to get done for v10. So let's go with this hackish answer for now. In passing, tweak AfterTriggerSaveEvent to not save the transition_capture pointer into the event record for a deferrable trigger. This is not necessary to fix the current bug, but it avoids letting dangling pointers to long-gone transition tables persist in the trigger event queue. That's at least a safety feature. It might also allow merging shared trigger states in more cases than before. I added a regression test that demonstrates the crash on unpatched code, and also exposes the behavior of firing the AFTER STATEMENT triggers once per row update. Per bug #14808 from Philippe Beaudoin. Back-patch to v10. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170909064853.25630.12825@wrigleys.postgresql.org
* Reduce excessive dereferencing of function pointersPeter Eisentraut2017-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is equivalent in ANSI C to write (*funcptr) () and funcptr(). These two styles have been applied inconsistently. After discussion, we'll use the more verbose style for plain function pointer variables, to make it clear that it's a variable, and the shorter style when the function pointer is in a struct (s.func() or s->func()), because then it's clear that it's not a plain function name, and otherwise the excessive punctuation makes some of those invocations hard to read.

* Improve division of labor between execParallel.c and nodeGather[Merge].c.Tom Lane2017-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the responsibility for creating/destroying TupleQueueReaders into execParallel.c, to avoid duplicative coding in nodeGather.c and nodeGatherMerge.c. Also, instead of having DestroyTupleQueueReader do shm_mq_detach, do it in the caller (which is now only ExecParallelFinish). This means execParallel.c does both the attaching and detaching of the tuple-queue-reader shm_mqs, which seems less weird than the previous arrangement. These changes also eliminate a vestigial memory leak (of the pei->tqueue array). It's now demonstrable that rescans of Gather or GatherMerge don't leak memory.

* Avoid memory leaks when a GatherMerge node is rescanned.Tom Lane2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rescanning a GatherMerge led to leaking some memory in the executor's query-lifespan context, because most of the node's working data structures were simply abandoned and rebuilt from scratch. In practice, this might never amount to much, given the cost of relaunching worker processes --- but it's still pretty messy, so let's fix it. We can rearrange things so that the tuple arrays are simply cleared and reused, and we don't need to rebuild the TupleTableSlots either, just clear them. One small complication is that because we might get a different number of workers on each iteration, we can't keep the old convention that the leader's gm_slots[] entry is the last one; the leader might clobber a TupleTableSlot that we need for a worker in a future iteration. Hence, adjust the logic so that the leader has slot 0 always, while the active workers have slots 1..n. Back-patch to v10 to keep all the existing versions of nodeGatherMerge.c in sync --- because of the renumbering of the slots, there would otherwise be a very large risk that any future backpatches in this module would introduce bugs.

* Clean up shm_mq cleanup.Tom Lane2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic around shm_mq_detach was a few bricks shy of a load, because (contrary to the comments for shm_mq_attach) all it did was update the shared shm_mq state. That left us leaking a bit of process-local memory, but much worse, the on_dsm_detach callback for shm_mq_detach was still armed. That means that whenever we ultimately detach from the DSM segment, we'd run shm_mq_detach again for already-detached, possibly long-dead queues. This accidentally fails to fail today, because we only ever re-use a shm_mq's memory for another shm_mq, and multiple detach attempts on the last such shm_mq are fairly harmless. But it's gonna bite us someday, so let's clean it up. To do that, change shm_mq_detach's API so it takes a shm_mq_handle not the underlying shm_mq. This makes the callers simpler in most cases anyway. Also fix a few places in parallel.c that were just pfree'ing the handle structs rather than doing proper cleanup. Back-patch to v10 because of the risk that the revenant shm_mq_detach callbacks would cause a live bug sometime. Since this is an API change, it's too late to do it in 9.6. (We could make a variant patch that preserves API, but I'm not excited enough to do that.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8670.1504192177@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Code review for nodeGatherMerge.c.Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Comment the fields of GatherMergeState, and organize them a bit more sensibly. Comment GMReaderTupleBuffer more usefully too. Improve assorted other comments that were obsolete or just not very good English. Get rid of the use of a GMReaderTupleBuffer for the leader process; that was confusing, since only the "done" field was used, and that in a way redundant with need_to_scan_locally. In gather_merge_init, avoid calling load_tuple_array for already-known-exhausted workers. I'm not sure if there's a live bug there, but the case is unlikely to be well tested due to timing considerations. Remove some useless code, such as duplicating the tts_isempty test done by TupIsNull. Remove useless initialization of ps.qual, replacing that with an assertion that we have no qual to check. (If we did, the code would fail to check it.) Avoid applying heap_copytuple to a null tuple. While that fails to crash, it's confusing and it makes the code less legible not more so IMO. Propagate a couple of these changes into nodeGather.c, as well. Back-patch to v10, partly because of the possibility that the gather_merge_init change is fixing a live bug, but mostly to keep the branches in sync to ease future bug fixes.
* Separate reinitialization of shared parallel-scan state from ExecReScan.Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the parallel executor logic did reinitialization of shared state within the ExecReScan code for parallel-aware scan nodes. This is problematic, because it means that the ExecReScan call has to occur synchronously (ie, during the parent Gather node's ReScan call). That is swimming very much against the tide so far as the ExecReScan machinery is concerned; the fact that it works at all today depends on a lot of fragile assumptions, such as that no plan node between Gather and a parallel-aware scan node is parameterized. Another objection is that because ExecReScan might be called in workers as well as the leader, hacky extra tests are needed in some places to prevent unwanted shared-state resets. Hence, let's separate this code into two functions, a ReInitializeDSM call and the ReScan call proper. ReInitializeDSM is called only in the leader and is guaranteed to run before we start new workers. ReScan is returned to its traditional function of resetting only local state, which means that ExecReScan's usual habits of delaying or eliminating child rescan calls are safe again. As with the preceding commit 7df2c1f8d, it doesn't seem to be necessary to make these changes in 9.6, which is a good thing because the FDW and CustomScan APIs are impacted.

* Force rescanning of parallel-aware scan nodes below a Gather[Merge].Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ExecReScan machinery contains various optimizations for postponing or skipping rescans of plan subtrees; for example a HashAgg node may conclude that it can re-use the table it built before, instead of re-reading its input subtree. But that is wrong if the input contains a parallel-aware table scan node, since the portion of the table scanned by the leader process is likely to vary from one rescan to the next. This explains the timing-dependent buildfarm failures we saw after commit a2b70c89c. The established mechanism for showing that a plan node's output is potentially variable is to mark it as depending on some runtime Param. Hence, to fix this, invent a dummy Param (one that has a PARAM_EXEC parameter number, but carries no actual value) associated with each Gather or GatherMerge node, mark parallel-aware nodes below that node as dependent on that Param, and arrange for ExecReScanGather[Merge] to flag that Param as changed whenever the Gather[Merge] node is rescanned. This solution breaks an undocumented assumption made by the parallel executor logic, namely that all rescans of nodes below a Gather[Merge] will happen synchronously during the ReScan of the top node itself. But that's fundamentally contrary to the design of the ExecReScan code, and so was doomed to fail someday anyway (even if you want to argue that the bug being fixed here wasn't a failure of that assumption). A follow-on patch will address that issue. In the meantime, the worst that's expected to happen is that given very bad timing luck, the leader might have to do all the work during a rescan, because workers think they have nothing to do, if they are able to start up before the eventual ReScan of the leader's parallel-aware table scan node has reset the shared scan state. Although this problem exists in 9.6, there does not seem to be any way for it to manifest there. Without GatherMerge, it seems that a plan tree that has a rescan-short-circuiting node below Gather will always also have one above it that will short-circuit in the same cases, preventing the Gather from being rescanned. Hence we won't take the risk of back-patching this change into 9.6. But v10 needs it. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAA4eK1JkByysFJNh9M349u_nNjqETuEnY_y1VUc_kJiU0bxtaQ@mail.gmail.com

* Don't lock tables in RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo.Robert Haas2017-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | Instead, lock them in the caller using find_all_inheritors so that they get locked in the standard order, minimizing deadlock risks. Also in RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo, avoid opening tables which are not partitioned; there's no need.

* Move ExecProcNode from dispatch to function pointer based model.Andres Freund2017-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to add stack-depth checks the first time an executor node is called, and skip that overhead on following calls. Additionally it yields a nice speedup. While it'd probably have been a good idea to have that check all along, it has become more important after the new expression evaluation framework in b8d7f053c5c2bf2a7e - there's no stack depth check in common paths anymore now. We previously relied on ExecEvalExpr() being executed somewhere. We should move towards that model for further routines, but as this is required for v10, it seems better to only do the necessary (which already is quite large).

* Move interrupt checking from ExecProcNode() to executor nodes.Andres Freund2017-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a followup commit ExecProcNode(), and especially the large switch it contains, will largely be replaced by a function pointer directly to the correct node. The node functions will then get invoked by a thin inline function wrapper. To avoid having to include miscadmin.h in headers - CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() - move the interrupt checks into the individual executor routines. While looking through all executor nodes, I noticed a number of arguably missing interrupt checks, add these too.

* Be more consistent about errors for opfamily member lookup failures.Tom Lane2017-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add error checks in some places that were calling get_opfamily_member or get_opfamily_proc and just assuming that the call could never fail. Also, standardize the wording for such errors in some other places. None of these errors are expected in normal use, hence they're just elog not ereport. But they may be handy for diagnosing omissions in custom opclasses. Rushabh Lathia found the oversight in RelationBuildPartitionKey(); I found the others by grepping for all callers of these functions.

* Improve comments for execExpr.c's handling of FieldStore subexpressions.Tom Lane2017-07-15
| | | | | | | | Given this code's general eagerness to use subexpressions' output variables as temporary workspace, it's not exactly clear that it is safe for FieldStore to tell a newval subexpression that it can write into the same variable that is being supplied as a potential input. Document the chain of assumptions needed for that to be safe.

* Code review for NextValueExpr expression node type.Tom Lane2017-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add missing infrastructure for this node type, notably in ruleutils.c where its lack could demonstrably cause EXPLAIN to fail. Add outfuncs/readfuncs support. (outfuncs support is useful today for debugging purposes. The readfuncs support may never be needed, since at present it would only matter for parallel query and NextValueExpr should never appear in a parallelizable query; but it seems like a bad idea to have a primnode type that isn't fully supported here.) Teach planner infrastructure that NextValueExpr is a volatile, parallel-unsafe, non-leaky expression node with cost cpu_operator_cost. Given its limited scope of usage, there *might* be no live bug today from the lack of that knowledge, but it's certainly going to bite us on the rear someday. Teach pg_stat_statements about the new node type, too. While at it, also teach cost_qual_eval() that MinMaxExpr, SQLValueFunction, XmlExpr, and CoerceToDomain should be charged as cpu_operator_cost. Failing to do this for SQLValueFunction was an oversight in my commit 0bb51aa96. The others are longer-standing oversights, but no time like the present to fix them. (In principle, CoerceToDomain could have cost much higher than this, but it doesn't presently seem worth trying to examine the domain's constraints here.) Modify execExprInterp.c to execute NextValueExpr as an out-of-line function; it seems quite unlikely to me that it's worth insisting that it be inlined in all expression eval methods. Besides, providing the out-of-line function doesn't stop anyone from inlining if they want to. Adjust some places where NextValueExpr support had been inserted with the aid of a dartboard rather than keeping it in the same order as elsewhere.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.
