* Improve EXPLAIN's display of window functions.Tom Lane2025-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now we just punted on showing the window definitions used in a plan, with window function calls represented as "OVER (?)". To improve that, show the window definition implemented by each WindowAgg plan node, and reference their window names in OVER. For nameless window clauses generated by "OVER (...)", assign unique names w1, w2, etc. In passing, re-order the properties shown for a WindowAgg node so that the Run Condition (if any) appears after the Window property and before the Filter (if any). This seems more sensible since the Run Condition is associated with the Window and acts before the Filter. Thanks to David G. Johnston and Álvaro Herrera for design suggestions.

* Implement ALTER TABLE ... SPLIT PARTITION ... commandAlexander Korotkov2024-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new DDL command splits a single partition into several parititions. Just like ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS ... command, new patitions are created using createPartitionTable() function with parent partition as the template. This commit comprises quite naive implementation which works in single process and holds the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE LOCK on the parent table during all the operations including the tuple routing. This is why this new DDL command can't be recommended for large partitioned tables under a high load. However, this implementation come in handy in certain cases even as is. Also, it could be used as a foundation for future implementations with lesser locking and possibly parallel.

* pageinspect: Fix gist_page_items() with included columnsMichael Paquier2023-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non-leaf pages of GiST indexes contain key attributes, leaf pages contain both key and non-key attributes, and gist_page_items() ignored the handling of non-key attributes. This caused a few problems when using gist_page_items() on a GiST index with INCLUDE: - On a non-leaf page, the function would crash. - On a leaf page, the function would work, but miss to display all the values for included attributes. This commit fixes gist_page_items() to handle such cases in a more appropriate way, and now displays the values of key and non-key attributes for each item separately in a style consistent with what ruleutils.c would generate for the attribute list, depending on the page type dealt with. In a way similar to how a record is displayed, values would be double-quoted for key or non-key attributes if required. ruleutils.c did not provide a routine able to control if non-key attributes should be displayed, so an extended() routine for index definitions is added to work around the leaf and non-leaf page differences. While on it, this commit fixes a third problem related to the amount of data reported for key attributes. The code originally relied on BuildIndexValueDescription() (used for error reports on constraints) that would not print all the data stored in the index but the index opclass's input type, so this limited the amount of information available. This switch makes gist_page_items() much cheaper as there is no need to run ACL checks for each item printed, which is not an issue anyway as superuser rights are required to execute the functions of pageinspect. Opclasses whose data cannot be displayed can rely on gist_page_items_bytea(). The documentation of this function was slightly incorrect for the output results generated on HEAD and v15, so adjust it on these branches.

* Add public ruleutils.c entry point to deparse a Query.Tom Lane2022-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This has no in-core callers but will be wanted by extensions. It's just a thin wrapper around get_query_def, so it adds little code. Also, fix get_from_clause_item() to force insertion of an alias for a SUBQUERY RTE item. This is irrelevant to existing uses because RTE_SUBQUERY items made by the parser always have aliases already. However, if one tried to use pg_get_querydef() to inspect a post-rewrite Query, it could be an issue. In any case, get_from_clause_item already contained logic to force alias insertion for VALUES items, so the lack of the same for SUBQUERY is a pretty clear oversight. In passing, replace duplicated code for selection of pretty-print options with a common macro.

* Extended statistics on expressionsTomas Vondra2021-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow defining extended statistics on expressions, not just just on simple column references. With this commit, expressions are supported by all existing extended statistics kinds, improving the same types of estimates. A simple example may look like this: CREATE TABLE t (a int); CREATE STATISTICS s ON mod(a,10), mod(a,20) FROM t; ANALYZE t; The collected statistics are useful e.g. to estimate queries with those expressions in WHERE or GROUP BY clauses: SELECT * FROM t WHERE mod(a,10) = 0 AND mod(a,20) = 0; SELECT 1 FROM t GROUP BY mod(a,10), mod(a,20); This introduces new internal statistics kind 'e' (expressions) which is built automatically when the statistics object definition includes any expressions. This represents single-expression statistics, as if there was an expression index (but without the index maintenance overhead). The statistics is stored in pg_statistics_ext_data as an array of composite types, which is possible thanks to 79f6a942bd. CREATE STATISTICS allows building statistics on a single expression, in which case in which case it's not possible to specify statistics kinds. A new system view pg_stats_ext_exprs can be used to display expression statistics, similarly to pg_stats and pg_stats_ext views. ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN ... TYPE now treats indexes the same way it treats indexes, i.e. it drops and recreates the statistics. This means all statistics are reset, and we no longer try to preserve at least the functional dependencies. This should not be a major issue in practice, as the functional dependencies actually rely on per-column statistics, which were always reset anyway.

* Implement operator class parametersAlexander Korotkov2020-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PostgreSQL provides set of template index access methods, where opclasses have much freedom in the semantics of indexing. These index AMs are GiST, GIN, SP-GiST and BRIN. There opclasses define representation of keys, operations on them and supported search strategies. So, it's natural that opclasses may be faced some tradeoffs, which require user-side decision. This commit implements opclass parameters allowing users to set some values, which tell opclass how to index the particular dataset. This commit doesn't introduce new storage in system catalog. Instead it uses pg_attribute.attoptions, which is used for table column storage options but unused for index attributes. In order to evade changing signature of each opclass support function, we implement unified way to pass options to opclass support functions. Options are set to fn_expr as the constant bytea expression. It's possible due to the fact that opclass support functions are executed outside of expressions, so fn_expr is unused for them. This commit comes with some examples of opclass options usage. We parametrize signature length in GiST. That applies to multiple opclasses: tsvector_ops, gist__intbig_ops, gist_ltree_ops, gist__ltree_ops, gist_trgm_ops and gist_hstore_ops. Also we parametrize maximum number of integer ranges for gist__int_ops. However, the main future usage of this feature is expected to be json, where users would be able to specify which way to index particular json parts. Catversion is bumped.

* Further adjust EXPLAIN's choices of table alias names.Tom Lane2019-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch causes EXPLAIN to always assign a separate table alias to the parent RTE of an append relation (inheritance set); before, such RTEs were ignored if not actually scanned by the plan. Since the child RTEs now always have that same alias to start with (cf. commit 55a1954da), the net effect is that the parent RTE usually gets the alias used or implied by the query text, and the children all get that alias with "_N" appended. (The exception to "usually" is if there are duplicate aliases in different subtrees of the original query; then some of those original RTEs will also have "_N" appended.) This results in more uniform output for partitioned-table plans than we had before: the partitioned table itself gets the original alias, and all child tables have aliases with "_N", rather than the previous behavior where one of the children would get an alias without "_N". The reason for giving the parent RTE an alias, even if it isn't scanned by the plan, is that we now use the parent's alias to qualify Vars that refer to an appendrel output column and appear above the Append or MergeAppend that computes the appendrel. But below the append, Vars refer to some one of the child relations, and are displayed that way. This seems clearer than the old behavior where a Var that could carry values from any child relation was displayed as if it referred to only one of them. While at it, change ruleutils.c so that the code paths used by EXPLAIN deal in Plan trees not PlanState trees. This effectively reverts a decision made in commit 1cc29fe7c, which seemed like a good idea at the time to make ruleutils.c consistent with explain.c. However, it's problematic because we'd really like to allow executor startup pruning to remove all the children of an append node when possible, leaving no child PlanState to resolve Vars against. (That's not done here, but will be in the next patch.) This requires different handling of subplans and initplans than before, but is otherwise a pretty straightforward change.

* 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.

* Fix handling of inherited check constraints in ALTER COLUMN TYPE (again).Tom Lane2015-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous way of reconstructing check constraints was to do a separate "ALTER TABLE ONLY tab ADD CONSTRAINT" for each table in an inheritance hierarchy. However, that way has no hope of reconstructing the check constraints' own inheritance properties correctly, as pointed out in bug #13779 from Jan Dirk Zijlstra. What we should do instead is to do a regular "ALTER TABLE", allowing recursion, at the topmost table that has a particular constraint, and then suppress the work queue entries for inherited instances of the constraint. Annoyingly, we'd tried to fix this behavior before, in commit 5ed6546cf, but we failed to notice that it wasn't reconstructing the pg_constraint field values correctly. As long as I'm touching pg_get_constraintdef_worker anyway, tweak it to always schema-qualify the target table name; this seems like useful backup to the protections installed by commit 5f173040. In HEAD/9.5, get rid of get_constraint_relation_oids, which is now unused. (I could alternatively have modified it to also return conislocal, but that seemed like a pretty single-purpose API, so let's not pretend it has some other use.) It's unused in the back branches as well, but I left it in place just in case some third-party code has decided to use it. In HEAD/9.5, also rename pg_get_constraintdef_string to pg_get_constraintdef_command, as the previous name did nothing to explain what that entry point did differently from others (and its comment was equally useless). Again, that change doesn't seem like material for back-patching. I did a bit of re-pgindenting in tablecmds.c in HEAD/9.5, as well. Otherwise, back-patch to all supported branches.

* Improve performance of EXPLAIN with large range tables.Tom Lane2015-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of 9.3, ruleutils.c goes to some lengths to ensure that table and column aliases used in its output are unique. Of course this takes more time than was required before, which in itself isn't fatal. However, EXPLAIN was set up so that recalculation of the unique aliases was repeated for each subexpression printed in a plan. That results in O(N^2) time and memory consumption for large plan trees, which did not happen in older branches. Fortunately, the expensive work is the same across a whole plan tree, so there is no need to repeat it; we can do most of the initialization just once per query and re-use it for each subexpression. This buys back most (not all) of the performance loss since 9.2. We need an extra ExplainState field to hold the precalculated deparse context. That's no problem in HEAD, but in the back branches, expanding sizeof(ExplainState) seems risky because third-party extensions might have local variables of that struct type. So, in 9.4 and 9.3, introduce an auxiliary struct to keep sizeof(ExplainState) the same. We should refactor the APIs to avoid such local variables in future, but that's material for a separate HEAD-only commit. Per gripe from Alexey Bashtanov. Back-patch to 9.3 where the issue was introduced.
