* Fix CLUSTER tuplesorts on abbreviated expressions.Peter Geoghegan2022-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CLUSTER sort won't use the datum1 SortTuple field when clustering against an index whose leading key is an expression. This makes it unsafe to use the abbreviated keys optimization, which was missed by the logic that sets up SortSupport state. Affected tuplesorts output tuples in a completely bogus order as a result (the wrong SortSupport based comparator was used for the leading attribute). This issue is similar to the bug fixed on the master branch by recent commit cc58eecc5d. But it's a far older issue, that dates back to the introduction of the abbreviated keys optimization by commit 4ea51cdfe8. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* set_deparse_plan: Reuse variable to appease CoverityAlvaro Herrera2022-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Coverity complains that dpns->outer_plan is deferenced (to obtain ->targetlist) when possibly NULL. We can avoid this by using dpns->outer_tlist instead, which was already obtained a few lines up. The fact that we end up with dpns->inner_tlist = dpns->outer_tlist is a bit suspicious-looking and maybe worthy of more investigation, but I'll leave that for another day.

* Fix extract epoch from interval calculationPeter Eisentraut2022-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new numeric code for extract epoch from interval accidentally truncated the DAYS_PER_YEAR value to an integer, leading to results that mismatched the floating-point interval_part calculations. The commit a2da77cdb4661826482ebf2ddba1f953bc74afe4 that introduced this actually contains the regression test change that this reverts. I suppose this was missed at the time.

* pgstat: Use correct lock level in pgstat_drop_all_entries().Andres Freund2022-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we didn't, which lead to an assertion failure when resetting partially loaded statistics. This was encountered on the buildfarm, for as-of-yet unknown reasons. Ttighten up a validity check when reading the stats file, verifying 'E' signals the end of the file (rather than just stopping reading).

* Teach planner and executor about monotonic window funcsDavid Rowley2022-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Window functions such as row_number() always return a value higher than the previously returned value for tuples in any given window partition. Traditionally queries such as; SELECT * FROM ( SELECT *, row_number() over (order by c) rn FROM t ) t WHERE rn <= 10; were executed fairly inefficiently. Neither the query planner nor the executor knew that once rn made it to 11 that nothing further would match the outer query's WHERE clause. It would blindly continue until all tuples were exhausted from the subquery. Here we implement means to make the above execute more efficiently. This is done by way of adding a pg_proc.prosupport function to various of the built-in window functions and adding supporting code to allow the support function to inform the planner if the window function is monotonically increasing, monotonically decreasing, both or neither. The planner is then able to make use of that information and possibly allow the executor to short-circuit execution by way of adding a "run condition" to the WindowAgg to allow it to determine if some of its execution work can be skipped. This "run condition" is not like a normal filter. These run conditions are only built using quals comparing values to monotonic window functions. For monotonic increasing functions, quals making use of the btree operators for <, <= and = can be used (assuming the window function column is on the left). You can see here that once such a condition becomes false that a monotonic increasing function could never make it subsequently true again. For monotonically decreasing functions the >, >= and = btree operators for the given type can be used for run conditions. The best-case situation for this is when there is a single WindowAgg node without a PARTITION BY clause. Here when the run condition becomes false the WindowAgg node can simply return NULL. No more tuples will ever match the run condition. It's a little more complex when there is a PARTITION BY clause. In this case, we cannot return NULL as we must still process other partitions. To speed this case up we pull tuples from the outer plan to check if they're from the same partition and simply discard them if they are. When we find a tuple belonging to another partition we start processing as normal again until the run condition becomes false or we run out of tuples to process. When there are multiple WindowAgg nodes to evaluate then this complicates the situation. For intermediate WindowAggs we must ensure we always return all tuples to the calling node. Any filtering done could lead to incorrect results in WindowAgg nodes above. For all intermediate nodes, we can still save some work when the run condition becomes false. We've no need to evaluate the WindowFuncs anymore. Other WindowAgg nodes cannot reference the value of these and these tuples will not appear in the final result anyway. The savings here are small in comparison to what can be saved in the top-level WingowAgg, but still worthwhile. Intermediate WindowAgg nodes never filter out tuples, but here we change WindowAgg so that the top-level WindowAgg filters out tuples that don't match the intermediate WindowAgg node's run condition. Such filters appear in the "Filter" clause in EXPLAIN for the top-level WindowAgg node. Here we add prosupport functions to allow the above to work for; row_number(), rank(), dense_rank(), count(*) and count(expr). It appears technically possible to do the same for min() and max(), however, it seems unlikely to be useful enough, so that's not done here.

* Rewrite some RI code to avoid using SPIAlvaro Herrera2022-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the subroutines called by RI trigger functions that want to check if a given referenced value exists in the referenced relation to simply scan the foreign key constraint's unique index, instead of using SPI to execute SELECT 1 FROM referenced_relation WHERE ref_key = $1 This saves a lot of work, especially when inserting into or updating a referencing relation. This rewrite allows to fix a PK row visibility bug caused by a partition descriptor hack which requires ActiveSnapshot to be set to come up with the correct set of partitions for the RI query running under REPEATABLE READ isolation. We now set that snapshot indepedently of the snapshot to be used by the PK index scan, so the two no longer interfere. The buggy output in src/test/isolation/expected/fk-snapshot.out of the relevant test case added by commit 00cb86e75d6d has been corrected.

* Prefetch data referenced by the WAL, take II.Thomas Munro2022-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a new GUC recovery_prefetch. When enabled, look ahead in the WAL and try to initiate asynchronous reading of referenced data blocks that are not yet cached in our buffer pool. For now, this is done with posix_fadvise(), which has several caveats. Since not all OSes have that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where available. Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later work. Set to "try" for now for test coverage. Default setting to be finalized before release. The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in bytes of decoded data. The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to infer that I/Os have begun and completed. We'll also not look more than maintenance_io_concurrency * 4 block references ahead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful statistics. Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory. The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture. The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it. By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite expensive. Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down replica. Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add tests. Bumps PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID.

* pgstat: scaffolding for transactional stats creation / drop.Andres Freund2022-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One problematic part of the current statistics collector design is that there is no reliable way of getting rid of statistics entries. Because of that pgstat_vacuum_stat() (called by [auto-]vacuum) matches all stats for the current database with the catalog contents and tries to drop now-superfluous entries. That's quite expensive. What's worse, it doesn't work on physical replicas, despite physical replicas collection statistics entries. This commit introduces infrastructure to create / drop statistics entries transactionally, together with the underlying catalog objects (functions, relations, subscriptions). pgstat_xact.c maintains a list of stats entries created / dropped transactionally in the current transaction. To ensure the removal of statistics entries is durable dropped statistics entries are included in commit / abort (and prepare) records, which also ensures that stats entries are dropped on standbys. Statistics entries created separately from creating the underlying catalog object (e.g. when stats were previously lost due to an immediate restart) are *not* WAL logged. However that can only happen outside of the transaction creating the catalog object, so it does not lead to "leaked" statistics entries. For this to work, functions creating / dropping functions / relations / subscriptions need to call into pgstat. For subscriptions this was already done when dropping subscriptions, via pgstat_report_subscription_drop() (now renamed to pgstat_drop_subscription()). This commit does not actually drop stats yet, it just provides the infrastructure. It is however a largely independent piece of infrastructure, so committing it separately makes sense.

Resetting all SLRUs/slots goes through the generic pgstat_reset_of_kind(). Previously pg_stat_reset_replication_slot() used SearchNamedReplicationSlot() to check if a slot exists. API wise it seems better to move that to pgstat_replslot.c. This is done separately from the - quite large - shared memory statistics patch to make review easier.

* Remove exclusive backup modeStephen Frost2022-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Exclusive-mode backups have been deprecated since 9.6 (when non-exclusive backups were introduced) due to the issues they can cause should the system crash while one is running and generally because non-exclusive provides a much better interface. Further, exclusive backup mode wasn't really being tested (nor was most of the related code- like being able to log in just to stop an exclusive backup and the bits of the state machine related to that) and having to possibly deal with an exclusive backup and the backup_label file existing during pg_basebackup, pg_rewind, etc, added other complexities that we are better off without. This patch removes the exclusive backup mode, the various special cases for dealing with it, and greatly simplifies the online backup code and documentation.

* Allow granting SET and ALTER SYSTEM privileges on GUC parameters.Tom Lane2022-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows "PGC_SUSET" parameters to be set by non-superusers if they have been explicitly granted the privilege to do so. The privilege to perform ALTER SYSTEM SET/RESET on a specific parameter can also be granted. Such privileges are cluster-wide, not per database. They are tracked in a new shared catalog, pg_parameter_acl. Granting and revoking these new privileges works as one would expect. One caveat is that PGC_USERSET GUCs are unaffected by the SET privilege --- one could wish that those were handled by a revocable grant to PUBLIC, but they are not, because we couldn't make it robust enough for GUCs defined by extensions.

* Use Generation memory contexts to store tuples in sortsDavid Rowley2022-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The general usage pattern when we store tuples in tuplesort.c is that we store a series of tuples one by one then either perform a sort or spill them to disk. In the common case, there is no pfreeing of already stored tuples. For the common case since we do not individually pfree tuples, we have very little need for aset.c memory allocation behavior which maintains freelists and always rounds allocation sizes up to the next power of 2 size. Here we conditionally use generation.c contexts for storing tuples in tuplesort.c when the sort will never be bounded. Unfortunately, the memory context to store tuples is already created by the time any calls would be made to tuplesort_set_bound(), so here we add a new sort option that allows callers to specify if they're going to need a bounded sort or not. We'll use a standard aset.c allocator when this sort option is not set. Extension authors must ensure that the TUPLESORT_ALLOWBOUNDED flag is used when calling tuplesort_begin_* for any sorts that make a call to tuplesort_set_bound().

* Adjust tuplesort API to have bitwise option flagsDavid Rowley2022-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the bool flag for randomAccess. An upcoming patch requires adding another option, so instead of breaking the API for that, then breaking it again one day if we add more options, let's just break it once. Any boolean options we add in the future will just make use of an unused bit in the flags. Any extensions making use of tuplesorts will need to update their code to pass TUPLESORT_RANDOMACCESS instead of true for randomAccess. TUPLESORT_NONE can be used for a set of empty options.

* Improve the generation memory allocatorDavid Rowley2022-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we make a series of improvements to the generation memory allocator, namely: 1. Allow generation contexts to have a minimum, initial and maximum block sizes. The standard allocator allows this already but when the generation context was added, it only allowed fixed-sized blocks. The problem with fixed-sized blocks is that it's difficult to choose how large to make the blocks. If the chosen size is too small then we'd end up with a large number of blocks and a large number of malloc calls. If the block size is made too large, then memory is wasted. 2. Add support for "keeper" blocks. This is a special block that is allocated along with the context itself but is never freed. Instead, when the last chunk in the keeper block is freed, we simply mark the block as empty to allow new allocations to make use of it. 3. Add facility to "recycle" newly empty blocks instead of freeing them and having to later malloc an entire new block again. We do this by recording a single GenerationBlock which has become empty of any chunks. When we run out of space in the current block, we check to see if there is a "freeblock" and use that if it contains enough space for the allocation.
