2022-10-07meson: Add support for building with precompiled headersAndres Freund
This substantially speeds up building for windows, due to the vast amount of headers included via windows.h. A cross build from linux targetting mingw goes from 994.11user 136.43system 0:31.58elapsed 3579%CPU to 422.41user 89.05system 0:14.35elapsed 3562%CPU The wins on windows are similar-ish (but I don't have a system at hand just now for actual numbers). Targetting other operating systems the wins are far smaller (tested linux, macOS, FreeBSD). For now precompiled headers are disabled by default, it's not clear how well they work on all platforms. E.g. on FreeBSD gcc doesn't seem to have working support, but clang does. When doing a full build precompiled headers are only beneficial for targets with multiple .c files, as meson builds a separate precompiled header for each target (so that different compilation options take effect). This commit therefore only changes target with at least two .c files to use precompiled headers. Because this commit adds b_pch=false to the default_options new build directories will have precompiled headers disabled by default, however existing build directories will continue use the default value of b_pch, which is true. Note that using precompiled headers with ccache requires setting CCACHE_SLOPPINESS=pch_defines,time_macros to get hits.

2022-10-06Remove useless character-length checks in contrib/ltree.Tom Lane
The t_iseq() macro does not need to be guarded by a character length check (at least when the comparison value is an ASCII character, as its documentation requires). Some portions of contrib/ltree hadn't read that memo, so simplify them. The last change in gettoken_query, - else if (charlen == 1 && !t_iseq(state->buf, ' ')) + else if (!t_iseq(state->buf, ' ')) looks like it's actually a bug fix: I doubt that the intention was to silently ignore multibyte characters as if they were whitespace. I'm not tempted to back-patch though, because this will have the effect of tightening what is allowed in ltxtquery strings. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2548310.1664999615@sss.pgh.pa.us
2022-10-06Introduce t_isalnum() to replace t_isalpha() || t_isdigit() tests.Tom Lane
ts_locale.c omitted support for "isalnum" tests, perhaps on the grounds that there were initially no use-cases for that. However, both ltree and pg_trgm need such tests, and we do also have one use-case now in the core backend. The workaround of testing isalpha and isdigit separately seems quite inefficient, especially when dealing with multibyte characters; so let's fill in the missing support.

2022-10-05meson: Add windows resource filesAndres Freund
The generated resource files aren't exactly the same ones as the old buildsystems generate. Previously "InternalName" and "OriginalFileName" were mostly wrong / not set (despite being required), but that was hard to fix in at least the make build. Additionally, the meson build falls back to a "auto-generated" description when not set, and doesn't set it in a few cases - unlikely that anybody looks at these descriptions in detail.

2022-10-03Revert "Optimize order of GROUP BY keys".Tom Lane
This reverts commit db0d67db2401eb6238ccc04c6407a4fd4f985832 and several follow-on fixes. The idea of making a cost-based choice of the order of the sorting columns is not fundamentally unsound, but it requires cost information and data statistics that we don't really have. For example, relying on procost to distinguish the relative costs of different sort comparators is pretty pointless so long as most such comparator functions are labeled with cost 1.0. Moreover, estimating the number of comparisons done by Quicksort requires more than just an estimate of the number of distinct values in the input: you also need some idea of the sizes of the larger groups, if you want an estimate that's good to better than a factor of three or so. That's data that's often unknown or not very reliable. Worse, to arrive at estimates of the number of calls made to the lower-order-column comparison functions, the code needs to make estimates of the numbers of distinct values of multiple columns, which are necessarily even less trustworthy than per-column stats. Even if all the inputs are perfectly reliable, the cost algorithm as-implemented cannot offer useful information about how to order sorting columns beyond the point at which the average group size is estimated to drop to 1. Close inspection of the code added by db0d67db2 shows that there are also multiple small bugs. These could have been fixed, but there's not much point if we don't trust the estimates to be accurate in-principle. Finally, the changes in cost_sort's behavior made for very large changes (often a factor of 2 or so) in the cost estimates for all sorting operations, not only those for multi-column GROUP BY. That naturally changes plan choices in many situations, and there's precious little evidence to show that the changes are for the better. Given the above doubts about whether the new estimates are really trustworthy, it's hard to summon much confidence that these changes are better on the average. Since we're hard up against the release deadline for v15, let's revert these changes for now. We can always try again later. Note: in v15, I left T_PathKeyInfo in place in nodes.h even though it's unreferenced. Removing it would be an ABI break, and it seems a bit late in the release cycle for that.

2022-09-29Restore pg_pread and friends.Thomas Munro
Commits cf112c12 and a0dc8271 were a little too hasty in getting rid of the pg_ prefixes where we use pread(), pwrite() and vectored variants. We dropped support for ancient Unixes where we needed to use lseek() to implement replacements for those, but it turns out that Windows also changes the current position even when you pass in an offset to ReadFile() and WriteFile() if the file handle is synchronous, despite its documentation saying otherwise. Switching to asynchronous file handles would fix that, but have other complications. For now let's just put back the pg_ prefix and add some comments to highlight the non-standard side-effect, which we can now describe as Windows-only.

The previous macro implementations just cast the argument to a target type but did not check whether the input type was appropriate. The function implementation can do better type checking of the input type. For the *GetDatumFast() macros, converting to an inline function doesn't work in the !USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL case, but we can use AssertVariableIsOfTypeMacro() to get a similar level of type checking.

2022-09-27Increase width of RelFileNumbers from 32 bits to 56 bits.Robert Haas
RelFileNumbers are now assigned using a separate counter, instead of being assigned from the OID counter. This counter never wraps around: if all 2^56 possible RelFileNumbers are used, an internal error occurs. As the cluster is limited to 2^64 total bytes of WAL, this limitation should not cause a problem in practice. If the counter were 64 bits wide rather than 56 bits wide, we would need to increase the width of the BufferTag, which might adversely impact buffer lookup performance. Also, this lets us use bigint for pg_class.relfilenode and other places where these values are exposed at the SQL level without worrying about overflow. This should remove the need to keep "tombstone" files around until the next checkpoint when relations are removed. We do that to keep RelFileNumbers from being recycled, but now that won't happen anyway. However, this patch doesn't actually change anything in this area; it just makes it possible for a future patch to do so.

2022-09-22meson: Add initial version of meson based build systemAndres Freund
Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system. After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects. We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of the new build system and mature it in tree. This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but building slower). Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only extensions) are not yet addressed. When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism. The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported versions build with meson.

2022-09-14postgres_fdw: Avoid 'variable not found in subplan target list' error.Etsuro Fujita
The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error. The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan.

2022-09-13Split up guc.c for better build speed and ease of maintenance.Tom Lane
guc.c has grown to be one of our largest .c files, making it a bottleneck for compilation. It's also acquired a bunch of knowledge that'd be better kept elsewhere, because of our not very good habit of putting variable-specific check hooks here. Hence, split it up along these lines: * guc.c itself retains just the core GUC housekeeping mechanisms. * New file guc_funcs.c contains the SET/SHOW interfaces and some SQL-accessible functions for GUC manipulation. * New file guc_tables.c contains the data arrays that define the built-in GUC variables, along with some already-exported constant tables. * GUC check/assign/show hook functions are moved to the variable's home module, whenever that's clearly identifiable. A few hard- to-classify hooks ended up in commands/variable.c, which was already a home for miscellaneous GUC hook functions. To avoid cluttering a lot more header files with #include "guc.h", I also invented a new header file utils/guc_hooks.h and put all the GUC hook functions' declarations there, regardless of their originating module. That allowed removal of #include "guc.h" from some existing headers. The fallout from that (hopefully all caught here) demonstrates clearly why such inclusions are best minimized: there are a lot of files that, for example, were getting array.h at two or more levels of remove, despite not having any connection at all to GUCs in themselves. There is some very minor code beautification here, such as renaming a couple of inconsistently-named hook functions and improving some comments. But mostly this just moves code from point A to point B and deals with the ensuing needs for #include adjustments and exporting a few functions that previously weren't exported. Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund; thanks also to Michael Paquier for the idea to invent guc_funcs.c. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/587607.1662836699@sss.pgh.pa.us

2022-09-02Fix planner to consider matches to boolean columns in extension indexes.Tom Lane
The planner has to special-case indexes on boolean columns, because what we need for an indexscan on such a column is a qual of the shape of "boolvar = pseudoconstant". For plain bool constants, previous simplification will have reduced this to "boolvar" or "NOT boolvar", and we have to reverse that if we want to make an indexqual. There is existing code to do so, but it only fires when the index's opfamily is BOOL_BTREE_FAM_OID or BOOL_HASH_FAM_OID. Thus extension AMs, or extension opclasses such as contrib/btree_gin, are out in the cold. The reason for hard-wiring the set of relevant opfamilies was mostly to avoid a catalog lookup in a hot code path. We can improve matters while not taking much of a performance hit by relying on the hard-wired set when the opfamily OID is visibly built-in, and only checking the catalogs when dealing with an extension opfamily. While here, rename IsBooleanOpfamily to IsBuiltinBooleanOpfamily to remind future users of that macro of its limitations. At some point we might want to make indxpath.c's improved version of the test globally accessible, but it's not presently needed elsewhere.

2022-08-27Avoid casting away const in sepgsql's quote_object_name.Tom Lane
quote_identifier's API is designed on the assumption that it's not worth worrying about a short-term memory leak when we have to produce a quoted version of the given identifier. Whoever wrote quote_object_name took it on themselves to override that judgment, but the only way to do so is to cast away const someplace. We can avoid that and substantially shorten the function by going along with quote_identifier's opinion. AFAICS quote_object_name is not used in any way where this would be unsustainable. Per discussion of commit 45987aae2, which exposed that we had a casting-away-const situation here. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20220827112304.GL2342@telsasoft.com
2022-08-27Be more careful to avoid including system headers after perl.hJohn Naylor
Commit 121d2d3d70 included simd.h into pg_wchar.h. This caused a problem on Windows, since Perl has "#define free" (referring to globals), which breaks the Windows' header. To fix, move the static inline function definitions from plperl_helpers.h, into plperl.h, where we already document the necessary inclusion order. Since those functions were the only reason for the existence of plperl_helpers.h, remove it.

2022-08-18Use correct LSN for error reporting in pg_walinspectJeff Davis
Usage of ReadNextXLogRecord()'s first_record parameter for error reporting isn't always correct. For instance, in GetWALRecordsInfo() and GetWalStats(), we're reading multiple records, and first_record is always passed as the LSN of the first record which is then used for error reporting for later WAL record read failures. This isn't correct. The correct parameter to use for error reports in case of WAL reading failures is xlogreader->EndRecPtr. This change fixes it. While on it, removed an unnecessary Assert in pg_walinspect code.

2022-08-11Fix catalog lookup with the wrong snapshot during logical decoding.Amit Kapila
Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart, if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong snapshot. To fix this problem, this change adds the list of transaction IDs and sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot. After restart or otherwise, when we restore from such a serialized snapshot, the corresponding list is restored in memory. Now, when decoding a COMMIT record, we check both the list and the ReorderBuffer to see if the transaction has modified catalogs. Since this adds additional information to the serialized snapshot, we cannot backpatch it. For back branches, we took another approach. We remember the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. This doesn't require any file format changes but the transaction will end up being added to the snapshot even if it has only relcache invalidations. But that won't be a problem since we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs. This commit bumps SNAPBUILD_VERSION because of a change in SnapBuild.

2022-08-05postgres_fdw: Disable batch insertion when there are WCO constraints.Etsuro Fujita
When inserting a view referencing a foreign table that has WITH CHECK OPTION constraints, in single-insert mode postgres_fdw retrieves the data that was actually inserted on the remote side so that the WITH CHECK OPTION constraints are enforced with the data locally, but in batch-insert mode it cannot currently retrieve the data (except for the row first inserted through the view), resulting in enforcing the WITH CHECK OPTION constraints with the data passed from the core (except for the first-inserted row), which led to incorrect results when inserting into a view referencing a foreign table in which a remote BEFORE ROW INSERT trigger changes the rows inserted through the view so that they violate the view's WITH CHECK OPTION constraint. Also, the query inserting into the view caused an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds. Fix these by disabling batch insertion when inserting into such a view. Back-patch to v14 where batch insertion was added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAPmGK17LpbTZs4m4a_6THP54UBeK9fHvX8aVVA%2BC6yEZDZwQcg%40mail.gmail.com
2022-08-04Remove dead pread and pwrite replacement code.Thomas Munro
pread() and pwrite() are in SUSv2, and all targeted Unix systems have them. Previously, we defined pg_pread and pg_pwrite to emulate these function with lseek() on old Unixen. The names with a pg_ prefix were a reminder of a portability hazard: they might change the current file position. That hazard is gone, so we can drop the prefixes. Since the remaining replacement code is Windows-only, move it into src/port/win32p{read,write}.c, and move the declarations into src/include/port/win32_port.h. No need for vestigial HAVE_PREAD, HAVE_PWRITE macros as they were only used for declarations in port.h which have now moved into win32_port.h.

2022-08-02Be more wary about 32-bit integer overflow in pg_stat_statements.Tom Lane
We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files. It occurred to me that on 32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow of calculations associated with the total query text size. Address that with several changes: 1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX. The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long" is 64 bits. We still need overflow guards on its use, but this helps. 2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to more than MaxAllocHugeSize. If it got that big, qtext_load_file would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it. Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset, and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t. 3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit arithmetic on all platforms. It appears possible that under duress those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table insertion. Per report from Bruno da Silva. I'm not convinced that these issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first place. But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense, and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties. (See also commit 8bbe4cbd9, which addressed some related bugs. The second Discussion: link is the thread that led up to that.) This issue is old, and is primarily a problem for old platforms, so back-patch.

2022-08-02Improve performance of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregatesDavid Rowley
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggreagtes have, since implemented in Postgres, been executed by always performing a sort in nodeAgg.c to sort the tuples in the current group into the correct order before calling the transition function on the sorted tuples. This was not great as often there might be an index that could have provided pre-sorted input and allowed the transition functions to be called as the rows come in, rather than having to store them in a tuplestore in order to sort them once all the tuples for the group have arrived. Here we change the planner so it requests a path with a sort order which supports the most amount of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate functions and add new code to the executor to allow it to support the processing of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates where the tuples are already sorted in the correct order. Since there can be many ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates in any given query level, it's very possible that we can't find an order that suits all of these aggregates. The sort order that the planner chooses is simply the one that suits the most aggregate functions. We take the most strictly sorted variation of each order and see how many aggregate functions can use that, then we try again with the order of the remaining aggregates to see if another order would suit more aggregate functions. For example: SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY a,b) ... would request the sort order to be {a, b} because {a} is a subset of the sort order of {a,b}, but; SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY c) ... would just pick a plan ordered by {a} (we give precedence to aggregates which are earlier in the targetlist). SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY b),agg3(a ORDER BY b) ... would choose to order by {b} since two aggregates suit that vs just one that requires input ordered by {a}.
