* llvmjit: Work around bug in LLVM 3.9 causing crashes after 72559438f92.Andres Freund2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately in LLVM 3.9 LLVMGetAttributeCountAtIndex(func, index) crashes when called with an index that has 0 attributes. Since there's no way to work around this in the C API, add a small C++ wrapper doing so. The only reason this didn't fail before 72559438f92 is that there always are function attributes...

* llvmjit: Also copy parameter / return value attributes from template functions.Andres Freund2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we only copied the function attributes. That caused problems at least on s390x: Because we didn't copy the 'zeroext' attribute for ExecAggTransReparent()'s *IsNull parameters, expressions invoking it didn't ensure that the upper bytes of the registers were zeroed. In the - relatively rare - cases where not, ExecAggTransReparent() wrongly ended up in the newValueIsNull branch due to the register not being zero. Subsequently causing a crash. It's quite possible that this would cause problems on other platforms, and in other places than just ExecAggTransReparent() on s390x. Thanks to Christoph (and the Debian project) for providing me with access to a s390x machine, allowing me to debug this.

* Kluge slot_compile_deform() to ignore incorrect attnotnull markings.Tom Lane2020-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we mustn't force an initdb in released branches, there is no simple way to correct the markings of pg_subscription.subslotname and pg_subscription_rel.srsublsn as attnotnull in existing pre-v13 installations. Fortunately, released branches don't rely on attnotnull being correct for much. The planner looks at it in relation_excluded_by_constraints, but it'd be difficult to get that to matter for a query on a system catalog. The only place where it's really problematic is in JIT's slot_compile_deform(), which can produce incorrect code that crashes if there are NULLs in an allegedly not-null column. Hence, hack up slot_compile_deform() to be specifically aware of these two incorrect markings and not trust them. This applies to v11 and v12; the JIT code didn't exist before that, and we've fixed the markings in v13. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/229396.1595191345@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Fix jit compilation bug on wide tables.Andres Freund2018-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function generated to perform JIT compiled tuple deforming failed when HeapTupleHeader's t_hoff was bigger than a signed int8. I'd failed to realize that LLVM's getelementptr would treat an int8 index argument as signed, rather than unsigned. That means that a hoff larger than 127 would result in a negative offset being applied. Fix that by widening the index to 32bit. Add a testcase with a wide table. Don't drop it, as it seems useful to verify other tools deal properly with wide tables. Thanks to Justin Pryzby for both reporting a bug and then reducing it to a reproducible testcase!

* Prevent generating EEOP_AGG_STRICT_INPUT_CHECK operations when nargs == 0.Andres Freund2018-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This only became a problem with 4c640f4f38, which didn't synchronize the value agg_strict_input_check.nargs is set to, with the guard condition for emitting the operation. Besides such instructions being unnecessary overhead, currently the LLVM JIT provider doesn't support them. It seems more sensible to avoid generating such instruction than supporting them. Add assertions to make it easier to debug a potential further occurance. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2a505161-2727-2473-7c46-591ed108ac52@email.cz Backpatch: 11-, like 4c640f4f38.
* Collect JIT instrumentation from workers.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, when using parallel query, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE)'s JIT compilation timings did not include the overhead from doing so on the workers. Fix that. We do so by simply aggregating the cost of doing JIT compilation on workers and the leader together. Arguably that's not quite accurate, because the total time spend doing so is spent in parallel - but it's hard to do much better. For additional detail, when VERBOSE is specified, the stats for workers are displayed separately.

* Fix partial-build problems introduced by having more generated headers.Tom Lane2018-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 372728b0d created some problems for usages like building a subdirectory without having first done "make all" at the top level, or for proceeding directly to "make install" without "make all". The only reasonably clean way to fix this seems to be to force the submake-generated-headers rule to fire in *any* "make all" or "make install" command anywhere in the tree. To avoid lots of redundant work, as well as parallel make jobs possibly clobbering each others' output, we still need to be sure that the rule fires only once in a recursive build. For that, adopt the same MAKELEVEL hack previously used for "temp-install". But try to document it a bit better. The submake-errcodes mechanism previously used in src/port/ and src/common/ is subsumed by this, so we can get rid of those special cases. It was inadequate for src/common/ anyway after the aforesaid commit, and it always risked parallel attempts to build errcodes.h.

* Add inlining support to LLVM JIT provider.Andres Freund2018-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides infrastructure to allow JITed code to inline code implemented in C. This e.g. can be postgres internal functions or extension code. This already speeds up long running queries, by allowing the LLVM optimizer to optimize across function boundaries. The optimization potential currently doesn't reach its full potential because LLVM cannot optimize the FunctionCallInfoData argument fully away, because it's allocated on the heap rather than the stack. Fixing that is beyond what's realistic for v11. To be able to do that, use CLANG to convert C code to LLVM bitcode, and have LLVM build a summary for it. That bitcode can then be used to to inline functions at runtime. For that the bitcode needs to be installed. Postgres bitcode goes into $pkglibdir/bitcode/postgres, extensions go into equivalent directories. PGXS has been modified so that happens automatically if postgres has been compiled with LLVM support. Currently this isn't the fastest inline implementation, modules are reloaded from disk during inlining. That's to work around an apparent LLVM bug, triggering an apparently spurious error in LLVM assertion enabled builds. Once that is resolved we can remove the superfluous read from disk. Docs will follow in a later commit containing docs for the whole JIT feature. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170901064131.tazjxwus3k2w3ybh@alap3.anarazel.de
* Quick adaption of JIT tuple deforming to the fast default patch.Andres Freund2018-03-27

* JIT tuple deforming in LLVM JIT provider.Andres Freund2018-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Performing JIT compilation for deforming gains performance benefits over unJITed deforming from compile-time knowledge of the tuple descriptor. Fixed column widths, NOT NULLness, etc can be taken advantage of. Right now the JITed deforming is only used when deforming tuples as part of expression evaluation (and obviously only if the descriptor is known). It's likely to be beneficial in other cases, too. By default tuple deforming is JITed whenever an expression is JIT compiled. There's a separate boolean GUC controlling it, but that's expected to be primarily useful for development and benchmarking. Docs will follow in a later commit containing docs for the whole JIT feature. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170901064131.tazjxwus3k2w3ybh@alap3.anarazel.de
* Adapt expression JIT to stdbool.h introduction.Andres Freund2018-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The LLVM JIT provider uses clang to synchronize types between normal C code and runtime generated code. Clang represents stdbool.h style booleans in return values & parameters differently from booleans stored in variables. Thus the expression compilation code from 2a0faed9d needs to be adapted to 9a95a77d9. Instead of hardcoding i8 as the type for booleans (which already was wrong on some edge case platforms!), use postgres' notion of a boolean as used for storage and for parameters. Per buildfarm animal xenodermus. Author: Andres Freund
* Add expression compilation support to LLVM JIT provider.Andres Freund2018-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to the interpretation of expressions (which back evaluation of WHERE clauses, target list projection, aggregates transition values etc) support compiling expressions to native code, using the infrastructure added in earlier commits. To avoid duplicating a lot of code, only support emitting code for cases that are likely to be performance critical. For expression steps that aren't deemed that, use the existing interpreter. The generated code isn't great - some architectural changes are required to address that. But this already yields a significant speedup for some analytics queries, particularly with WHERE clauses filtering a lot, or computing multiple aggregates.

* 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.

* Basic JIT provider and error handling infrastructure.Andres Freund2018-03-21
This commit introduces: 1) JIT provider abstraction, which allows JIT functionality to be implemented in separate shared libraries. That's desirable because it allows to install JIT support as a separate package, and because it allows experimentation with different forms of JITing. 2) JITContexts which can be, using functions introduced in follow up commits, used to emit JITed functions, and have them be cleaned up on error. 3) The outline of a LLVM JIT provider, which will be fleshed out in subsequent commits.
