* Introduce new extended routines for FDW and foreign server lookupsMichael Paquier2018-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cache lookup routines for foreign-data wrappers and foreign servers are extended with an extra argument to handle a set of flags. The only value which can be used now is to indicate if a missing object should result in an error or not, and are designed to be extensible on need. Those new routines are added into the existing set of user-visible FDW APIs and documented in consequence. They will be used for future patches to improve the SQL interface for object addresses.

* 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.

* Change TRUE/FALSE to true/falsePeter Eisentraut2017-11-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings. The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so those are left as is when using those APIs. In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>
* Abstract logic to allow for multiple kinds of child rels.Robert Haas2017-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the only type of child relation is an "other member rel", which is the child of a baserel, but in the future joins and even upper relations may have child rels. To facilitate that, introduce macros that test to test for particular RelOptKind values, and use them in various places where they help to clarify the sense of a test. (For example, a test may allow RELOPT_OTHER_MEMBER_REL either because it intends to allow child rels, or because it intends to allow simple rels.) Also, remove find_childrel_top_parent, which will not work for a child rel that is not a baserel. Instead, add a new RelOptInfo member top_parent_relids to track the same kind of information in a more generic manner. Ashutosh Bapat, slightly tweaked by me.

* Generate fmgr prototypes automaticallyPeter Eisentraut2017-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | Gen_fmgrtab.pl creates a new file fmgrprotos.h, which contains prototypes for all functions registered in pg_proc.h. This avoids having to manually maintain these prototypes across a random variety of header files. It also automatically enforces a correct function signature, and since there are warnings about missing prototypes, it will detect functions that are defined but not registered in pg_proc.h (or otherwise used).

* Avoid invalidating all foreign-join cached plans when user mappings change.Tom Lane2016-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must not push down a foreign join when the foreign tables involved should be accessed under different user mappings. Previously we tried to enforce that rule literally during planning, but that meant that the resulting plans were dependent on the current contents of the pg_user_mapping catalog, and we had to blow away all cached plans containing any remote join when anything at all changed in pg_user_mapping. This could have been improved somewhat, but the fact that a syscache inval callback has very limited info about what changed made it hard to do better within that design. Instead, let's change the planner to not consider user mappings per se, but to allow a foreign join if both RTEs have the same checkAsUser value. If they do, then they necessarily will use the same user mapping at runtime, and we don't need to know specifically which one that is. Post-plan-time changes in pg_user_mapping no longer require any plan invalidation. This rule does give up some optimization ability, to wit where two foreign table references come from views with different owners or one's from a view and one's directly in the query, but nonetheless the same user mapping would have applied. We'll sacrifice the first case, but to not regress more than we have to in the second case, allow a foreign join involving both zero and nonzero checkAsUser values if the nonzero one is the same as the prevailing effective userID. In that case, mark the plan as only runnable by that userID. The plancache code already had a notion of plans being userID-specific, in order to support RLS. It was a little confused though, in particular lacking clarity of thought as to whether it was the rewritten query or just the finished plan that's dependent on the userID. Rearrange that code so that it's clearer what depends on which, and so that the same logic applies to both RLS-injected role dependency and foreign-join-injected role dependency. Note that this patch doesn't remove the other issue mentioned in the original complaint, which is that while we'll reliably stop using a foreign join if it's disallowed in a new context, we might fail to start using a foreign join if it's now allowed, but we previously created a generic cached plan that didn't use one. It was agreed that the chance of winning that way was not high enough to justify the much larger number of plan invalidations that would have to occur if we tried to cause it to happen. In passing, clean up randomly-varying spelling of EXPLAIN commands in postgres_fdw.sql, and fix a COSTS ON example that had been allowed to leak into the committed tests. This reverts most of commits fbe5a3fb7 and 5d4171d1c, which were the previous attempt at ensuring we wouldn't push down foreign joins that span permissions contexts.

* Only try to push down foreign joins if the user mapping OIDs match.Robert Haas2016-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the foreign join pushdown infrastructure left the question of security entirely up to individual FDWs, but it would be easy for a foreign data wrapper to inadvertently open up subtle security holes that way. So, make it the core code's job to determine which user mapping OID is relevant, and don't attempt join pushdown unless it's the same for all relevant relations. Per a suggestion from Tom Lane.

* Avoid multiple foreign server connections when all use same user mapping.Robert Haas2016-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, postgres_fdw's connection cache was keyed by user OID and server OID, but this can lead to multiple connections when it's not really necessary. In particular, if all relevant users are mapped to the public user mapping, then their connection options are certainly the same, so one connection can be used for all of them. While we're cleaning things up here, drop the "server" argument to GetConnection(), which isn't really needed. This saves a few cycles because callers no longer have to look this up; the function itself does, but only when establishing a new connection, not when reusing an existing one. Ashutosh Bapat, with a few small changes by me.

* Code review for foreign/custom join pushdown patch.Tom Lane2015-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e7cb7ee14555cc9c5773e2c102efd6371f6f2005 included some design decisions that seem pretty questionable to me, and there was quite a lot of stuff not to like about the documentation and comments. Clean up as follows: * Consider foreign joins only between foreign tables on the same server, rather than between any two foreign tables with the same underlying FDW handler function. In most if not all cases, the FDW would simply have had to apply the same-server restriction itself (far more expensively, both for lack of caching and because it would be repeated for each combination of input sub-joins), or else risk nasty bugs. Anyone who's really intent on doing something outside this restriction can always use the set_join_pathlist_hook. * Rename fdw_ps_tlist/custom_ps_tlist to fdw_scan_tlist/custom_scan_tlist to better reflect what they're for, and allow these custom scan tlists to be used even for base relations. * Change make_foreignscan() API to include passing the fdw_scan_tlist value, since the FDW is required to set that. Backwards compatibility doesn't seem like an adequate reason to expect FDWs to set it in some ad-hoc extra step, and anyway existing FDWs can just pass NIL. * Change the API of path-generating subroutines of add_paths_to_joinrel, and in particular that of GetForeignJoinPaths and set_join_pathlist_hook, so that various less-used parameters are passed in a struct rather than as separate parameter-list entries. The objective here is to reduce the probability that future additions to those parameter lists will result in source-level API breaks for users of these hooks. It's possible that this is even a small win for the core code, since most CPU architectures can't pass more than half a dozen parameters efficiently anyway. I kept root, joinrel, outerrel, innerrel, and jointype as separate parameters to reduce code churn in joinpath.c --- in particular, putting jointype into the struct would have been problematic because of the subroutines' habit of changing their local copies of that variable. * Avoid ad-hocery in ExecAssignScanProjectionInfo. It was probably all right for it to know about IndexOnlyScan, but if the list is to grow we should refactor the knowledge out to the callers. * Restore nodeForeignscan.c's previous use of the relcache to avoid extra GetFdwRoutine lookups for base-relation scans. * Lots of cleanup of documentation and missed comments. Re-order some code additions into more logical places.
* Allow FDWs and custom scan providers to replace joins with scans.Robert Haas2015-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Foreign data wrappers can use this capability for so-called "join pushdown"; that is, instead of executing two separate foreign scans and then joining the results locally, they can generate a path which performs the join on the remote server and then is scanned locally. This commit does not extend postgres_fdw to take advantage of this capability; it just provides the infrastructure. Custom scan providers can use this in a similar way. Previously, it was only possible for a custom scan provider to scan a single relation. Now, it can scan an entire join tree, provided of course that it knows how to produce the same results that the join would have produced if executed normally.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
* Split heapam_xlog.h from heapam.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | The heapam XLog functions are used by other modules, not all of which are interested in the rest of the heapam API. With this, we let them get just the XLog stuff in which they are interested and not pollute them with unrelated includes. Also, since heapam.h no longer requires xlog.h, many files that do include heapam.h no longer get xlog.h automatically, including a few headers. This is useful because heapam.h is getting pulled in by execnodes.h, which is in turn included by a lot of files.
