2017-07-30Move ExecProcNode from dispatch to function pointer based model.Andres Freund
This allows us to add stack-depth checks the first time an executor node is called, and skip that overhead on following calls. Additionally it yields a nice speedup. While it'd probably have been a good idea to have that check all along, it has become more important after the new expression evaluation framework in b8d7f053c5c2bf2a7e - there's no stack depth check in common paths anymore now. We previously relied on ExecEvalExpr() being executed somewhere. We should move towards that model for further routines, but as this is required for v10, it seems better to only do the necessary (which already is quite large).

2017-07-30Move interrupt checking from ExecProcNode() to executor nodes.Andres Freund
In a followup commit ExecProcNode(), and especially the large switch it contains, will largely be replaced by a function pointer directly to the correct node. The node functions will then get invoked by a thin inline function wrapper. To avoid having to include miscadmin.h in headers - CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() - move the interrupt checks into the individual executor routines. While looking through all executor nodes, I noticed a number of arguably missing interrupt checks, add these too.

2017-06-21Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
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.

2017-06-21Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

2016-12-16Unbreak Finalize HashAggregate over Partial HashAggregate.Robert Haas
Commit 5dfc198146b49ce7ecc8a1fc9d5e171fb75f6ba5 introduced the use of a new type of hash table with linear reprobing for hash aggregates. Such a hash table behaves very poorly if keys are inserted in hash order, which does in fact happen in the case where a query use a Finalize HashAggregate node fed (via Gather) by a Partial HashAggregate node. In fact, queries with this type of plan tend to run effectively forever. Fix that by seeding the hash value differently in each worker (and in the leader, if it participates). Andres Freund and Robert Haas
2016-10-14Use more efficient hashtable for execGrouping.c to speed up hash aggregation.Andres Freund
The more efficient hashtable speeds up hash-aggregations with more than a few hundred groups significantly. Improvements of over 120% have been measured. Due to the the different hash table queries that not fully determined (e.g. GROUP BY without ORDER BY) may change their result order. The conversion is largely straight-forward, except that, due to the static element types of simplehash.h type hashes, the additional data some users store in elements (e.g. the per-group working data for hash aggregaters) is now stored in TupleHashEntryData->additional. The meaning of BuildTupleHashTable's entrysize (renamed to additionalsize) has been changed to only be about the additionally stored size. That size is only used for the initial sizing of the hash-table. Reviewed-By: Tomas Vondra Discussion: <20160727004333.r3e2k2y6fvk2ntup@alap3.anarazel.de>
2016-08-27Add macros to make AllocSetContextCreate() calls simpler and safer.Tom Lane
I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies, and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases. Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts; those two calls can be left as-is, I think. While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can gradually adopt the simplified notation over time. In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts. Back-patch to 9.6, mostly because that's still close enough to HEAD that it's easy to do so, and keeping the branches in sync can be expected to avoid some future back-patching pain. The bugs fixed by these changes don't seem to be significant enough to justify fixing them further back. Discussion: <21072.1472321324@sss.pgh.pa.us>

2012-08-30Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera
This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.

2010-07-12Make NestLoop plan nodes pass outer-relation variables into their innerTom Lane
relation using the general PARAM_EXEC executor parameter mechanism, rather than the ad-hoc kluge of passing the outer tuple down through ExecReScan. The previous method was hard to understand and could never be extended to handle parameters coming from multiple join levels. This patch doesn't change the set of possible plans nor have any significant performance effect, but it's necessary infrastructure for future generalization of the concept of an inner indexscan plan. ExecReScan's second parameter is now unused, so it's removed.

2008-08-07Improve INTERSECT/EXCEPT hashing by realizing that we don't need to make anyTom Lane
hashtable entries for tuples that are found only in the second input: they can never contribute to the output. Furthermore, this implies that the planner should endeavor to put first the smaller (in number of groups) input relation for an INTERSECT. Implement that, and upgrade prepunion's estimation of the number of rows returned by setops so that there's some amount of sanity in the estimate of which one is smaller.
2008-08-07Support hashing for duplicate-elimination in INTERSECT and EXCEPT queries.Tom Lane
This completes my project of improving usage of hashing for duplicate elimination (aggregate functions with DISTINCT remain undone, but that's for some other day). As with the previous patches, this means we can INTERSECT/EXCEPT on datatypes that can hash but not sort, and it means that INTERSECT/EXCEPT without ORDER BY are no longer certain to produce sorted output.

2007-01-10Change the planner-to-executor API so that the planner tells the executorTom Lane
which comparison operators to use for plan nodes involving tuple comparison (Agg, Group, Unique, SetOp). Formerly the executor looked up the default equality operator for the datatype, which was really pretty shaky, since it's possible that the data being fed to the node is sorted according to some nondefault operator class that could have an incompatible idea of equality. The planner knows what it has sorted by and therefore can provide the right equality operator to use. Also, this change moves a couple of catalog lookups out of the executor and into the planner, which should help startup time for pre-planned queries by some small amount. Modify the planner to remove some other cavalier assumptions about always being able to use the default operators. Also add "nulls first/last" info to the Plan node for a mergejoin --- neither the executor nor the planner can cope yet, but at least the API is in place.

bits indicating which optional capabilities can actually be exercised at runtime. This will allow Sort and Material nodes, and perhaps later other nodes, to avoid unnecessary overhead in common cases. This commit just adds the infrastructure and arranges to pass the correct flag values down to plan nodes; none of the actual optimizations are here yet. I'm committing this separately in case anyone wants to measure the added overhead. (It should be negligible.) Simon Riggs and Tom Lane
2005-11-23Get rid of ExecAssignResultTypeFromOuterPlan() and make all plan node typesTom Lane
generate their output tuple descriptors from their target lists (ie, using ExecAssignResultTypeFromTL()). We long ago fixed things so that all node types have minimally valid tlists, so there's no longer any good reason to have two different ways of doing it. This change is needed to fix bug reported by Hayden James: the fix of 2005-11-03 to emit the correct column names after optimizing away a SubqueryScan node didn't work if the new top-level plan node used ExecAssignResultTypeFromOuterPlan to generate its tupdesc, since the next plan node down won't have the correct column labels.

2005-03-16Revise TupleTableSlot code to avoid unnecessary construction and disassemblyTom Lane
of tuples when passing data up through multiple plan nodes. A slot can now hold either a normal "physical" HeapTuple, or a "virtual" tuple consisting of Datum/isnull arrays. Upper plan levels can usually just copy the Datum arrays, avoiding heap_formtuple() and possible subsequent nocachegetattr() calls to extract the data again. This work extends Atsushi Ogawa's earlier patch, which provided the key idea of adding Datum arrays to TupleTableSlots. (I believe however that something like this was foreseen way back in Berkeley days --- see the old comment on ExecProject.) A test case involving many levels of join of fairly wide tables (about 80 columns altogether) showed about 3x overall speedup, though simple queries will probably not be helped very much. I have also duplicated some code in heaptuple.c in order to provide versions of heap_formtuple and friends that use "bool" arrays to indicate null attributes, instead of the old convention of "char" arrays containing either 'n' or ' '. This provides a better match to the convention used by ExecEvalExpr. While I have not made a concerted effort to get rid of uses of the old routines, I think they should be deprecated and eventually removed.

The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway. No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.
