Commit 1dc5ebc90 allowed PL/pgSQL to perform in-place updates
of expanded-object variables that are being updated with
assignments like "x := f(x, ...)". However this was allowed
only for a hard-wired list of functions f(), since we need to
be sure that f() will not modify the variable if it fails.
It was always envisioned that we should make that extensible,
but at the time we didn't have a good way to do so. Since
then we've invented the idea of "support functions" to allow
attaching specialized optimization knowledge to functions,
and that is a perfect mechanism for doing this.
Hence, adjust PL/pgSQL to use a support function request instead
of hard-wired logic to decide if in-place update is safe.
Preserve the previous optimizations by creating support functions
for the three functions that were previously hard-wired.

If a read/write expanded variable is declared locally to the
assignment statement that is updating it, and it is referenced
exactly once in the assignment RHS, then we can optimize the
operation as a direct update of the expanded value, whether
or not the function(s) operating on it can be trusted not to
modify the value before throwing an error. This works because
if an error does get thrown, we no longer care what value the
variable has.
In cases where that doesn't work, fall back to the previous
rule that checks for safety of the top-level function.
In any case, postpone determination of whether these optimizations
are feasible until we are executing a Param referencing the target
variable and that variable holds a R/W expanded object. While the
previous incarnation of exec_check_rw_parameter was pretty cheap,
this is a bit less so, and our plan to invoke support functions
will make it even less so. So avoiding the check for variables
where it couldn't be useful should be a win.

As highlighted by the prior commit, writing correct escape functions is less
trivial than one might hope.
This test module tries to verify that different escaping functions behave
reasonably. It e.g. tests:
- Invalidly encoded input to an escape function leads to invalidly encoded
output
- Trailing incomplete multi-byte characters are handled sensibly
- Escaped strings are parsed as single statement by psql's parser (which
derives from the backend parser)
There are further tests that would be good to add. But even in the current
state it was rather useful for writing the fix in the prior commit.

If a time zone abbreviation used in datetime input is defined in
the currently active timezone, use that definition in preference
to looking in the timezone_abbreviations list. That allows us to
correctly handle abbreviations that have different meanings in
different timezones. Also, it eliminates an inconsistency between
datetime input and datetime output: the non-ISO datestyles for
timestamptz have always printed abbreviations taken from the IANA
data, not from timezone_abbreviations. Before this fix, it was
possible to demonstrate cases where casting a timestamp to text
and back fails or changes the value significantly because of that
inconsistency.
While this change removes the ability to override the IANA data about
an abbreviation known in the current zone, it's not clear that there's
any real use-case for doing so. But it is clear that this makes life
a lot easier for dealing with abbreviations that have conflicts across
different time zones.
Also update the pg_timezone_abbrevs view to report abbreviations
that are recognized via the IANA data, and *not* report any
timezone_abbreviations entries that are thereby overridden.
Under the hood, there are now two SRFs, one that pulls the IANA
data and one that pulls timezone_abbreviations entries. They're
combined by logic in the view. This approach was useful for
debugging (since the functions can be called on their own).
While I don't intend to document the functions explicitly,
they might be useful to call directly.
Also improve DecodeTimezoneAbbrev's caching logic so that it can
cache zone abbreviations found in the IANA data. Without that,
this patch would have caused a noticeable degradation of the
runtime of timestamptz_in.

This allows the RETURNING list of INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE/MERGE queries
to explicitly return old and new values by using the special aliases
"old" and "new", which are automatically added to the query (if not
already defined) while parsing its RETURNING list, allowing things
like:
RETURNING old.colname, new.colname, ...
RETURNING old.*, new.*
Additionally, a new syntax is supported, allowing the names "old" and
"new" to be changed to user-supplied alias names, e.g.:
RETURNING WITH (OLD AS o, NEW AS n) o.colname, n.colname, ...
This is useful when the names "old" and "new" are already defined,
such as inside trigger functions, allowing backwards compatibility to
be maintained -- the interpretation of any existing queries that
happen to already refer to relations called "old" or "new", or use
those as aliases for other relations, is not changed.
For an INSERT, old values will generally be NULL, and for a DELETE,
new values will generally be NULL, but that may change for an INSERT
with an ON CONFLICT ... DO UPDATE clause, or if a query rewrite rule
changes the command type. Therefore, we put no restrictions on the use
of old and new in any DML queries.

The original design for set operations involved appending the two
input relations into one and adding a flag column that allows
distinguishing which side each row came from. Then the SetOp node
pries them apart again based on the flag. This is bizarre. The
only apparent reason to do it is that when sorting, we'd only need
one Sort node not two. But since sorting is at least O(N log N),
sorting all the data is actually worse than sorting each side
separately --- plus, we have no chance of taking advantage of
presorted input. On top of that, adding the flag column frequently
requires an additional projection step that adds cycles, and then
the Append node isn't free either. Let's get rid of all of that
and make the SetOp node have two separate children, using the
existing outerPlan/innerPlan infrastructure.
This initial patch re-implements nodeSetop.c and does a bare minimum
of work on the planner side to generate correctly-shaped plans.
In particular, I've tried not to change the cost estimates here,
so that the visible changes in the regression test results will only
involve removal of useless projection steps and not any changes in
whether to use sorted vs hashed mode.
For SORTED mode, we combine successive identical tuples from each
input into groups, and then merge-join the groups. The tuple
comparisons now use SortSupport instead of simple equality, but
the group-formation part should involve roughly the same number of
tuple comparisons as before. The cross-comparisons between left and
right groups probably add to that, but I'm not sure to quantify how
many more comparisons we might need.
For HASHED mode, nodeSetop's logic is almost the same as before,
just refactored into two separate loops instead of one loop that
has an assumption that it will see all the left-hand inputs first.
In both modes, I added early-exit logic to not bother reading the
right-hand relation if the left-hand input is empty, since neither
INTERSECT nor EXCEPT modes can produce any output if the left input
is empty. This could have been done before in the hashed mode, but
not in sorted mode. Sorted mode can also stop as soon as it exhausts
the left input; any remaining right-hand tuples cannot have matches.
Also, this patch adds some infrastructure for detecting whether
child plan nodes all output the same type of tuple table slot.
If they do, the hash table logic can use slightly more efficient
code based on assuming that that's the input slot type it will see.
We'll make use of that infrastructure in other plan node types later.
Patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo and David Rowley for review.

This adds a new variable-numbered statistics kind in pgstats, where the
object ID key of the stats entries is based on the proc number of the
backends. This acts as an upper-bound for the number of stats entries
that can exist at once. The entries are created when a backend starts
after authentication succeeds, and are removed when the backend exits,
making the stats entry exist for as long as their backend is up and
running. These are not written to the pgstats file at shutdown (note
that write_to_file is disabled, as a safety measure).
Currently, these stats include only information about the I/O generated
by a backend, using the same layer as pg_stat_io, except that it is now
possible to know how much activity is happening in each backend rather
than an overall aggregate of all the activity. A function called
pg_stat_get_backend_io() is added to access this data depending on the
PID of a backend. The existing structure could be expanded in the
future to add more information about other statistics related to
backends, depending on requirements or ideas.
Auxiliary processes are not included in this set of statistics. These
are less interesting to have than normal backends as they have dedicated
entries in pg_stat_io, and stats kinds of their own.
This commit includes also pg_stat_reset_backend_stats(), function able
to reset all the stats associated to a single backend.

When optimizer generates bitmap paths, it considers breaking OR-clause
arguments one-by-one. But now, a group of similar OR-clauses can be
transformed into SAOP during index matching. So, bitmap paths should
keep up.
This commit teaches bitmap paths generation machinery to group similar
OR-clauses into dedicated RestrictInfos. Those RestrictInfos are considered
both to match index as a whole (as SAOP), or to match as a set of individual
OR-clause argument one-by-one (the old way).
Therefore, bitmap path generation will takes advantage of OR-clauses to SAOP's
transformation. The old way of handling them is also considered. So, there
shouldn't be planning regression.

Supply a new memory manager for RuntimeDyld, to avoid crashes in
generated code caused by memory placement that can overflow a 32 bit
data type. This is a drop-in replacement for the
llvm::SectionMemoryManager class in the LLVM library, with Michael
Smith's proposed fix from
https://www.github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/71968.
We hereby slurp it into our own source tree, after moving into a new
namespace llvm::backport and making some minor adjustments so that it
can be compiled with older LLVM versions as far back as 12. It's harder
to make it work on even older LLVM versions, but it doesn't seem likely
that people are really using them so that is not investigated for now.
The problem could also be addressed by switching to JITLink instead of
RuntimeDyld, and that is the LLVM project's recommended solution as
the latter is about to be deprecated. We'll have to do that soon enough
anyway, and then when the LLVM version support window advances far
enough in a few years we'll be able to delete this code. Unfortunately
that wouldn't be enough for PostgreSQL today: in most relevant versions
of LLVM, JITLink is missing or incomplete.
Several other projects have already back-ported this fix into their fork
of LLVM, which is a vote of confidence despite the lack of commit into
LLVM as of today. We don't have our own copy of LLVM so we can't do
exactly what they've done; instead we have a copy of the whole patched
class so we can pass an instance of it to RuntimeDyld.
The LLVM project hasn't chosen to commit the fix yet, and even if it
did, it wouldn't be back-ported into the releases of LLVM that most of
our users care about, so there is not much point in waiting any longer
for that. If they make further changes and commit it to LLVM 19 or 20,
we'll still need this for older versions, but we may want to
resynchronize our copy and update some comments.
The changes that we've had to make to our copy can be seen by diffing
our SectionMemoryManager.{h,cpp} files against the ones in the tree of
the pull request. Per the LLVM project's license requirements, a copy
is in SectionMemoryManager.LICENSE.
This should fix the spate of crash reports we've been receiving lately

We had been using "diff -upd", which evidently works for most people,
but Solaris's diff doesn't like it. (We'd not noticed because the
Solaris buildfarm animals weren't running this test until they were
upgraded to the latest buildfarm client script.) Change to "diff -U3"
which is what pg_regress has used for ages.
Per buildfarm (and off-list discussion with Noah Misch).
Back-patch to v16 where this test was added. In v16,
also back-patch the relevant part of 628c1d1f2 so that
the test script looks about the same in all branches.
"meson test" used to ignore the PG_TEST_EXTRA environment variable,
which meant that in order to run additional tests, you had to run
"meson setup -DPG_TEST_EXTRA=...". That's somewhat expensive, and not
consistent with autoconf builds. Allow PG_TEST_EXTRA environment
variable to override the setup-time option at run time, so that you
can do "PG_TEST_EXTRA=... meson test".
To implement this, the configuration time value is passed as an extra
"--pg-test-extra" argument to testwrap instead of adding it to the
test environment. If the environment variable is set at the time of
running test, testwrap uses the value from the environment variable
and ignores the --pg-test-extra option.
Now that "meson test" obeys the environment variable, we can remove it
from the "meson setup" steps in the CI script. It will now be picked
up from the environment variable like with "make check".

The inplace update survives ROLLBACK. The inval didn't, so another
backend's DDL could then update the row without incorporating the
inplace update. In the test this fixes, a mix of CREATE INDEX and ALTER
TABLE resulted in a table with an index, yet relhasindex=f. That is a
source of index corruption. Back-patch to v12 (all supported versions).
The back branch versions don't change WAL, because those branches just
added end-of-recovery SIResetAll(). All branches change the ABI of
extern function PrepareToInvalidateCacheTuple(). No PGXN extension
calls that, and there's no apparent use case in extensions.

Currently, WaitForLSNReplay() immediately throws an error if waiting for LSN
replay is not successful. This commit teaches WaitForLSNReplay() to return
the result of waiting, while making pg_wal_replay_wait() responsible for
throwing an appropriate error.
This is preparation to adding 'no_error' argument to pg_wal_replay_wait() and
new function pg_wal_replay_wait_status(), which returns the last wait result
status.
Additionally, we stop distinguishing situations when we find our instance to
be not in a recovery state before entering the waiting loop and inside
the waiting loop. Standby promotion may happen at any moment, even between
issuing a procedure call statement and pg_wal_replay_wait() doing a first
check of recovery status. Thus, there is no pointing distinguishing these
situations.
Also, since we may exit the waiting loop and see our instance not in recovery
without throwing an error, we need to deleteLSNWaiter() in that case. We do
this unconditionally for the sake of simplicity, even if standby was already
promoted after reaching the target LSN, the startup process surely already
deleted us.

Currently, when a single relcache entry gets invalidated,
TypeCacheRelCallback() has to loop over all type cache entries to find
appropriate typentry to invalidate. Unfortunately, using the syscache here
is impossible, because this callback could be called outside a transaction
and this makes impossible catalog lookups. This is why present commit
introduces RelIdToTypeIdCacheHash to map relation OID to its composite type
OID.
We are keeping RelIdToTypeIdCacheHash entry while corresponding type cache
entry have something to clean. Therefore, RelIdToTypeIdCacheHash shouldn't
get bloat in the case of temporary tables flood.
There are many places in lookup_type_cache() where syscache invalidation,
user interruption, or even error could occur. In order to handle this, we
keep an array of in-progress type cache entries. In the case of
lookup_type_cache() interruption this array is processed to keep
RelIdToTypeIdCacheHash in a consistent state.

Previously, CREATE/ALTER EXTENSION gave basically no useful
context about errors reported while executing script files.
I think the idea was that you could run the same commands
manually to see the error, but that's often quite inconvenient.
Let's improve that.
If we get an error during raw parsing, we won't have a current
statement identified by a RawStmt node, but we should always get
a syntax error position. Show the portion of the script from
the last semicolon-newline before the error position to the first
one after it. There are cases where this might show only a
fragment of a statement, but that should be uncommon, and it
seems better than showing the whole script file.
Without an error cursor, if we have gotten past raw parsing (which
we probably have), we can report just the current SQL statement as
an item of error context.
In any case also report the script file name as error context,
since it might not be entirely obvious which of a series of
update scripts failed. We can also show an approximate script
line number in case whatever we printed of the query isn't
sufficiently identifiable.
The error-context code path is already exercised by some
test_extensions test cases, but add tests for the syntax-error
path.

... to fix bugs when the referenced table is partitioned.
The catalog representation we chose for foreign keys connecting
partitioned tables (in commit f56f8f8da6) is inconvenient, in the
sense that a standalone table has a different way to represent the
constraint when referencing a partitioned table, than when the same
table becomes a partition (and vice versa). Because of this, we need to
create additional catalog rows on detach (pg_constraint and pg_trigger),
and remove them on attach. We were doing some of those things, but not
all of them, leading to missing catalog rows in certain cases.
The worst problem seems to be that we are missing action triggers after
detaching a partition, which means that you could update/delete rows
from the referenced partitioned table that still had referencing rows on
that table, the server failing to throw the required errors.
!!!
Note that this means existing databases with FKs that reference
partitioned tables might have rows that break relational integrity, on
tables that were once partitions on the referencing side of the FK.
Another possible problem is that trying to reattach a table
that had been detached would fail indicating that internal triggers
cannot be found, which from the user's point of view is nonsensical.
In branches 15 and above, we fix this by creating a new helper function
addFkConstraint() which is in charge of creating a standalone
pg_constraint row, and repurposing addFkRecurseReferencing() and
addFkRecurseReferenced() so that they're only the recursive routine for
each side of the FK, and they call addFkConstraint() to create
pg_constraint at each partitioning level and add the necessary triggers.
These new routines can be used during partition creation, partition
attach and detach, and foreign key creation. This reduces redundant
code and simplifies the flow.
In branches 14 and 13, we have a much simpler fix that consists on
simply removing the constraint on detach. The reason is that those
branches are missing commit f4566345cf, which reworked the way this
works in a way that we didn't consider back-patchable at the time.
We opted to leave branch 12 alone, because it's different from branch 13
enough that the fix doesn't apply; and because it is going in EOL mode
very soon, patching it now might be worse since there's no way to undo
the damage if it goes wrong.
Existing databases might need to be repaired.
In the future we might want to rethink the catalog representation to
avoid this problem, but for now the code seems to do what's required to
make the constraints operate correctly.

Invent a notion of "local" storage that will automatically be
reclaimed at the end of each statement. Use this for location
strings as well as other visibly short-lived data within the parser.
Also, make cat_str and make_str return local storage and not free
their inputs, which allows dispensing with a whole lot of retail
mm_strdup calls. We do have to add some new ones in places where
a local-lifetime string needs to be added to a longer-lived data
structure, but on balance there are a lot less mm_strdup calls than
before.
In hopes of flushing out places where changes were necessary,
I changed YYLTYPE from "char *" to "const char *", which forced
const-ification of various function arguments that probably
should've been like that all along.
This still leaks somewhat more memory than v17, but that will be
cleaned up in future commits.

Backpatch-through: v12
Separate out psql_completion's giant else-if chain of *Matches
tests into a new function. Add the infrastructure needed for
table-driven checking of the initial match of each completion
rule. As-is, however, the code continues to operate as it did.
The new behavior applies only if SWITCH_CONVERSION_APPLIED
is #defined, which it is not here. (The preprocessor added
in the next patch will add a #define for that.)
The first and last couple of bits of psql_completion are not
based on HeadMatches/TailMatches/Matches tests, so they stay
where they are; they won't become part of the switch.
This patch also fixes up a couple of if-conditions that didn't meet
the conditions enumerated in the comment for match_previous_words().
Those restrictions exist to simplify the preprocessor.

In the PostgreSQL C type naming schema, the type PageData should be
what the pointer of type Page points to. But in this case it's
actually an unrelated type local to generic_xlog.c. Rename that to a
more specific name. This makes room to possible add a PageData type
with the mentioned meaning, but this is not done here.
