In the initial implementation of plan caching, we saved the active
search_path when a plan was first cached, then reinstalled that path
anytime we needed to reparse or replan. The idea of that was to try to
reselect the same referenced objects, in somewhat the same way that views
continue to refer to the same objects in the face of schema or name
changes. Of course, that analogy doesn't bear close inspection, since
holding the search_path fixed doesn't cope with object drops or renames.
Moreover sticking with the old path seems to create more surprises than
it avoids. So instead of doing that, consider that the cached plan depends
on search_path, and force reparse/replan if the active search_path is
different than it was when we last saved the plan.
This gets us fairly close to having "transparency" of plan caching, in the
sense that the cached statement acts the same as if you'd just resubmitted
the original query text for another execution. There are still some corner
cases where this fails though: a new object added in the search path
schema(s) might capture a reference in the query text, but we'd not realize
that and force a reparse. We might try to fix that in the future, but for
the moment it looks too expensive and complicated.

SPI_execute() and related functions create a CachedPlan, execute it once,
and immediately discard it, so that the functionality offered by
plancache.c is of no value in this code path. And performance measurements
show that the extra data copying and invalidation checking done by
plancache.c slows down simple queries by 10% or more compared to 9.1.
However, enough of the SPI code is shared with functions that do need plan
caching that it seems impractical to bypass plancache.c altogether.
Instead, let's invent a variant version of cached plans that preserves
99% of the API but doesn't offer any of the actual functionality, nor the
overhead. This puts SPI_execute() performance back on par, or maybe even
slightly better, than it was before. This change should resolve recent
complaints of performance degradation from Dong Ye, Pavel Stehule, and
others.
By avoiding data copying, this change also reduces the amount of memory
needed to execute many-statement SPI_execute() strings, as for instance in
a recent complaint from Tomas Vondra.
An additional benefit of this change is that multi-statement SPI_execute()
query strings are now processed fully serially, that is we complete
execution of earlier statements before running parse analysis and planning
on following ones. This eliminates a long-standing POLA violation, in that
DDL that affects the behavior of a later statement will now behave as
expected.
Back-patch to 9.2, since this was a performance regression compared to 9.1.
(In 9.2, place the added struct fields so as to avoid changing the offsets
of existing fields.)

Rewrite plancache.c so that a "cached plan" (which is rather a misnomer
at this point) can support generation of custom, parameter-value-dependent
plans, and can make an intelligent choice between using custom plans and
the traditional generic-plan approach. The specific choice algorithm
implemented here can probably be improved in future, but this commit is
all about getting the mechanism in place, not the policy.
In addition, restructure the API to greatly reduce the amount of extraneous
data copying needed. The main compromise needed to make that possible was
to split the initial creation of a CachedPlanSource into two steps. It's
worth noting in particular that SPI_saveplan is now deprecated in favor of
SPI_keepplan, which accomplishes the same end result with zero data
copying, and no need to then spend even more cycles throwing away the
original SPIPlan. The risk of long-term memory leaks while manipulating
SPIPlans has also been greatly reduced. Most of this improvement is based
on use of the recently-added MemoryContextSetParent primitive.

As proof of concept, modify plpgsql to use the hooks. plpgsql is still
inserting $n symbols textually, but the "back end" of the parsing process now
goes through the ParamRef hook instead of using a fixed parameter-type array,
and then execution only fetches actually-referenced parameters, using a hook
added to ParamListInfo.
Although there's a lot left to be done in plpgsql, this already cures the
"if (TG_OP = 'INSERT' and NEW.foo ...)" problem, as illustrated by the
changed regression test.

we regenerate the SQL query text not merely the plan derived from it. This
is needed to handle contingencies such as renaming of a table or column
used in an FK. Pre-8.3, such cases worked despite the lack of replanning
(because the cached plan needn't actually change), so this is a regression.
Per bug #4417 from Benjamin Bihler.

when user-defined functions used in a plan are modified. Also invalidate
plans when schemas, operators, or operator classes are modified; but for these
cases we just invalidate everything rather than tracking exact dependencies,
since these types of objects seldom change in a production database.

a portal are never NULL, but reliably provide the source text of the query.
It turns out that there was only one place that was really taking a short-cut,
which was the 'EXECUTE' utility statement. That doesn't seem like a
sufficiently critical performance hotspot to justify not offering a guarantee
of validity of the portal source text. Fix it to copy the source text over
from the cached plan. Add Asserts in the places that set up cached plans and
portals to reject null source strings, and simplify a bunch of places that
formerly needed to guard against nulls.
There may be a few places that cons up statements for execution without
having any source text at all; I found one such in ConvertTriggerToFK().
It seems sufficient to inject a phony source string in such a case,
for instance
ProcessUtility((Node *) atstmt,
"(generated ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY command)",
NULL, false, None_Receiver, NULL);
We should take a second look at the usage of debug_query_string,
particularly the recently added current_query() SQL function.

columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer
generate extra index entries for the new version. Instead, index searches
follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version.
In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a
per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space.
VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however.

only needs to be invalidated so that rules affected by the new setting
will be reflected in the new query plans.

SPI facilities create a path whereby queries planned with non-default
options can get into the cache, so it is necessary.

reviewed by Neil Conway. This patch adds the following DDL command
variants: RESET SESSION, RESET TEMP, RESET PLANS, CLOSE ALL, and
DEALLOCATE ALL. RESET SESSION is intended for use by connection
pool software and the like, in order to reset a client session
to something close to its initial state.
Note that while most of these command variants can be executed
inside a transaction block (but are not transaction-aware!),
RESET SESSION cannot. While this is inconsistent, it is intended
to catch programmer mistakes: RESET SESSION in an open transaction
block is probably unintended.

search_path that was active when the plan was first made. To do this,
improve namespace.c to support a stack of "override" search path settings
(we must have a stack since nested replan events are entirely possible).
This facility replaces the "special namespace" hack formerly used by
CREATE SCHEMA, and should be able to support per-function search path
settings as well.

rules to be defined with different, per session controllable, behaviors
for replication purposes.
This will allow replication systems like Slony-I and, as has been stated
on pgsql-hackers, other products to control the firing mechanism of
triggers and rewrite rules without modifying the system catalog directly.
The firing mechanisms are controlled by a new superuser-only GUC
variable, session_replication_role, together with a change to
pg_trigger.tgenabled and a new column pg_rewrite.ev_enabled. Both
columns are a single char data type now (tgenabled was a bool before).
The possible values in these attributes are:
'O' - Trigger/Rule fires when session_replication_role is "origin"
(default) or "local". This is the default behavior.
'D' - Trigger/Rule is disabled and fires never
'A' - Trigger/Rule fires always regardless of the setting of
session_replication_role
'R' - Trigger/Rule fires when session_replication_role is "replica"
The GUC variable can only be changed as long as the system does not have
any cached query plans. This will prevent changing the session role and
accidentally executing stored procedures or functions that have plans
cached that expand to the wrong query set due to differences in the rule
firing semantics.
The SQL syntax for changing a triggers/rules firing semantics is
ALTER TABLE <tabname> <when> TRIGGER|RULE <name>;
<when> ::= ENABLE | ENABLE ALWAYS | ENABLE REPLICA | DISABLE
psql's \d command as well as pg_dump are extended in a backward
compatible fashion.

uses SPI plans, this finally fixes the ancient gotcha that you can't
drop and recreate a temp table used by a plpgsql function.
Along the way, clean up SPI's API a little bit by declaring SPI plan
pointers as "SPIPlanPtr" instead of "void *". This is cosmetic but
helps to forestall simple programming mistakes. (I have changed some
but not all of the callers to match; there are still some "void *"'s
in contrib and the PL's. This is intentional so that we can see if
anyone's compiler complains about it.)

module and teach PREPARE and protocol-level prepared statements to use it.
In service of this, rearrange utility-statement processing so that parse
analysis does not assume table schemas can't change before execution for
utility statements (necessary because we don't attempt to re-acquire locks
for utility statements when reusing a stored plan). This requires some
refactoring of the ProcessUtility API, but it ends up cleaner anyway,
for instance we can get rid of the QueryContext global.
Still to do: fix up SPI and related code to use the plan cache; I'm tempted to
try to make SQL functions use it too. Also, there are at least some aspects
of system state that we want to ensure remain the same during a replan as in
the original processing; search_path certainly ought to behave that way for
instance, and perhaps there are others.
