The original coding ensured nbuckets and nbatch didn't exceed INT_MAX,
which while not insane on its own terms did nothing to protect subsequent
code like "palloc(nbatch * sizeof(BufFile *))". Since enormous join size
estimates might well be planner error rather than reality, it seems best
to constrain the initial sizes to be not more than work_mem/sizeof(pointer),
thus ensuring the allocated arrays don't exceed work_mem. We will allow
nbatch to get bigger than that during subsequent ExecHashIncreaseNumBatches
calls, but we should still guard against integer overflow in those palloc
requests. Per bug #5145 from Bernt Marius Johnsen.
Although the given test case only seems to fail back to 8.2, previous
releases have variants of this issue, so patch all supported branches.

The old coding was using a regular snapshot, referenced elsewhere, that was
subject to having its command counter updated. Fix by creating a private copy
of the snapshot exclusively for the cursor.
Backpatch to 8.4, which is when the bug was introduced during the snapshot
management rewrite.

values before they get passed to the index access method. This avoids
repeated detoastings that will otherwise ensue as the comparison value
is examined by various index support functions. We have seen a couple of
reports of cases where repeated detoastings result in an order-of-magnitude
slowdown, so it seems worth adding a bit of extra logic to prevent this.
I had previously proposed trying to avoid duplicate detoastings in general,
but this fix takes care of what seems the most important case in practice
with very little effort or risk.
Back-patch to 8.4 so that the PostGIS folk won't have to wait a year to
have this fix in a production release. (The issue exists further back,
of course, but the code's diverged enough to make backpatching further a
higher-risk action. Also it appears that the possible gains may be limited
in prior releases because of different handling of lossy operators.)

of individually pfree'ing pass-by-reference transition values. This should
be at least as fast as the prior coding, and it has the major advantage of
clearing out any working data an aggregate function may have stored in or
underneath the aggcontext. This avoids memory leakage when an aggregate
such as array_agg() is used in GROUP BY mode. Per report from Chris Spotts.
Back-patch to 8.4. In principle the problem could arise in prior versions,
but since they didn't have array_agg the issue seems not critical.

memory leakage in error recovery. We were calling FreeExprContext, and
therefore invoking ExprContextCallback callbacks, in both normal and error
exits from subtransactions. However this isn't very safe, as shown in
recent trouble report from Frank van Vugt, in which releasing a tupledesc
refcount failed. It's also unnecessary, since the resources that callbacks
might wish to release should be cleaned up by other error recovery mechanisms
(ie the resource owners). We only really want FreeExprContext to release
memory attached to the exprcontext in the error-exit case. So, add a bool
parameter to FreeExprContext to tell it not to call the callbacks.
A more general solution would be to pass the isCommit bool parameter on to
the callbacks, so they could do only safe things during error exit. But
that would make the patch significantly more invasive and possibly break
third-party code that registers ExprContextCallback callbacks. We might want
to do that later in HEAD, but for now I'll just do what seems reasonable to
back-patch.

ArrayBuildState, per trouble report from Merlin Moncure. By adopting
this fix, we are essentially deciding that aggregate final-functions
should not modify their inputs ever. Adjust documentation and comments
to match that conclusion.

aggregated tuple of a run. Per report from Laurenz Albe. This is a new
bug in 8.4, but only because prior versions rejected SRFs in an Agg plan
node altogether.

pg_migrator actually needs and not just a partial solution. We have to be
able to specify the OID that the new toast table should be created with.

function returning setof record. This used to work, more or less
accidentally, but I had broken it while extending the code to allow
materialize-mode functions to be called in select lists. Add a regression
test case so it doesn't get broken again. Per gripe from Greg Davidson.

by extending the ereport() API to cater for pluralization directly. This
is better than the original method of calling ngettext outside the elog.c
code because (1) it avoids double translation, which wastes cycles and in
the worst case could give a wrong result; and (2) it avoids having to use
a different coding method in PL code than in the core backend. The
client-side uses of ngettext are not touched since neither of these concerns
is very pressing in the client environment. Per my proposal of yesterday.

a toast table to be built, even if the sum-of-column-widths calculation
indicates one isn't needed. This is needed by pg_migrator because if the
old table has a toast table, we have to migrate over the toast table since
it might contain some live data, even though subsequent column drops could
mean that no recently-added rows could require toasting.

of discovery, rather than reverse order. This doesn't matter functionally
(I suppose the previous coding dates from the time when lcons was markedly
cheaper than lappend). However now that EXPLAIN is labeling subplans with
IDs that are based on order of creation, this may help produce a slightly
less surprising printout.

for simple Var targetlist entries all the time, even when there are other
entries that are not simple Vars. Also, ensure that we prefetch attributes
(with slot_getsomeattrs) for all Vars in the targetlist, even those buried
within expressions. In combination these changes seem to significantly
reduce the runtime for cases where tlists are mostly but not exclusively
Vars. Per my proposal of yesterday.

TupleTableSlots. We have functions for retrieving a minimal tuple from a slot
after storing a regular tuple in it, or vice versa; but these were implemented
by converting the internal storage from one format to the other. The problem
with that is it invalidates any pass-by-reference Datums that were already
fetched from the slot, since they'll be pointing into the just-freed version
of the tuple. The known problem cases involve fetching both a whole-row
variable and a pass-by-reference value from a slot that is fed from a
tuplestore or tuplesort object. The added regression tests illustrate some
simple cases, but there may be other failure scenarios traceable to the same
bug. Note that the added tests probably only fail on unpatched code if it's
built with --enable-cassert; otherwise the bug leads to fetching from freed
memory, which will not have been overwritten without additional conditions.
Fix by allowing a slot to contain both formats simultaneously; which turns out
not to complicate the logic much at all, if anything it seems less contorted
than before.
Back-patch to 8.2, where minimal tuples were introduced.

mode while callers hold pointers to in-memory tuples. I reported this for
the case of nodeWindowAgg's primary scan tuple, but inspection of the code
shows that all of the calls in nodeWindowAgg and nodeCtescan are at risk.
For the moment, fix it with a rather brute-force approach of copying
whenever one of the at-risk callers requests a tuple. Later we might
think of some sort of reference-count approach to reduce tuple copying.
|

In the backend, I changed only a handful of exemplary or important-looking
instances to make use of the plural support; there is probably more work
there. For the rest of the source, this should cover all relevant cases.

distribution, by creating a special fast path for the (first few) most common
values of the outer relation. Tuples having hashvalues matching the MCVs
are effectively forced to be in the first batch, so that we never write
them out to the batch temp files.

from the source table. This could never happen anyway before 8.4 because
the executor invariably applied a "junk filter" to rows due to be inserted;
but now that we skip doing that when it's not necessary, the case can occur.
Problem noted 2008-11-27 by KaiGai Kohei, though I misunderstood what he
was on about at the time (the opacity of the patch he proposed didn't help).

This allows TOAST tables to have user-defined fillfactor, and will also
enable us to move the autovacuum parameters to reloptions without taking
away the possibility of setting values for TOAST tables.

case that the command is rewritten into another type of command. The old
behavior to return the command tag of the last executed command was
pretty surprising. In PL/pgSQL, for example, it meant that if a command
was rewritten to a utility statement, FOUND wasn't set at all.

worth committing separately, since it's potentially useful independently of
posix_fadvise.

that are set up for execution with ExecPrepareExpr rather than going through
the full planner process. By introducing an explicit notion of "expression
planning", this patch also lays a bit of groundwork for maybe someday
allowing sub-selects in standalone expressions.

OutputFunctionCall, and friends. This allows SPI-using functions to invoke
datatype I/O without concern for the possibility that a SPI-using function
will be called (which could be either the I/O function itself, or a function
used in a domain check constraint). It's a tad ugly, but not nearly as ugly
as what'd be needed to make this work via retail insertion of push/pop
operations in all the PLs.
This reverts my patch of 2007-01-30 that inserted some retail SPI_push/pop
calls into plpgsql; that approach only fixed plpgsql, and not any other PLs.
But the other PLs have the issue too, as illustrated by a recent gripe from
Christian Schröder.
Back-patch to 8.2, which is as far back as this solution will work. It's
also as far back as we need to worry about the domain-constraint case, since
earlier versions did not attempt to check domain constraints within datatype
input. I'm not aware of any old I/O functions that use SPI themselves, so
this should be sufficient for a back-patch.

not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add
#includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of
yesterday.
This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes,
since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.

practically free given prior 8.4 changes in plancache and portal management,

patch. This includes the ability to force the frame to cover the whole
partition, and the ability to make the frame end exactly on the current row
rather than its last ORDER BY peer. Supporting any more of the full SQL
frame-clause syntax will require nontrivial hacking on the window aggregate
code, so it'll have to wait for 8.5 or beyond.

upcoming window-functions patch. First, tuplestore_trim is now an
exported function that must be explicitly invoked by callers at
appropriate times, rather than something that tuplestore tries to do
behind the scenes. Second, a read pointer that is marked as allowing
backward scan no longer prevents truncation. This means that a read pointer
marked as having BACKWARD but not REWIND capability can only safely read
backwards as far as the oldest other read pointer. (The expected use pattern
for this involves having another read pointer that serves as the truncation
fencepost.)

materialize-mode set results. Since it now uses the ReturnSetInfo node
to hold internal state, we need to be sure to set up the node even when
the immediately called function doesn't return set (but does have a set-valued
argument). Per report from Anupama Aherrao.

in 8.3, too, but I'm not back-patching this change since it would break any
extension modules that might be calling that function.

toasted values, since those could get dropped once the cursor's transaction
is over. Per bug #4553 from Andrew Gierth.
Back-patch as far as 8.1. The bug actually exists back to 7.4 when holdable
cursors were introduced, but this patch won't work before 8.1 without
significant adjustments. Given the lack of field complaints, it doesn't seem
worth the work (and risk of introducing new bugs) to try to make a patch for
the older branches.

that a Portal is a useful and sufficient additional argument for
CreateDestReceiver --- it just isn't, in most cases. Instead formalize
the approach of passing any needed parameters to the receiver separately.
One unexpected benefit of this change is that we can declare typedef Portal
in a less surprising location.
This patch is just code rearrangement and doesn't change any functionality.
I'll tackle the HOLD-cursor-vs-toast problem in a follow-on patch.

DestReceiver created during postquel_start needs to be destroyed during
postquel_end. In a moment of brain fade I had assumed this would be taken
care of by FreeQueryDesc, but it's not (and shouldn't be).

* Refactor explain.c slightly to export a convenient-to-use subroutine
for printing EXPLAIN results.
* Provide hooks for plugins to get control at ExecutorStart and ExecutorEnd
as well as ExecutorRun.
* Add some minimal support for tracking the total runtime of ExecutorRun.
This code won't actually do anything unless a plugin prods it to.
* Change the API of the DefineCustomXXXVariable functions to allow nonzero
"flags" to be specified for a custom GUC variable. While at it, also make
the "bootstrap" default value for custom GUCs be explicitly specified as a
parameter to these functions. This is to eliminate confusion over where the
default comes from, as has been expressed in the past by some users of the
custom-variable facility.
* Refactor GUC code a bit to ensure that a custom variable gets initialized to
something valid (like its default value) even if the placeholder value was
invalid.

locate the target row, if the cursor was declared with FOR UPDATE or FOR
SHARE. This approach is more flexible and reliable than digging through the
plan tree; for instance it can cope with join cursors. But we still provide
the old code for use with non-FOR-UPDATE cursors. Per gripe from Robert Haas.

return the tableoid as well as the ctid for any FOR UPDATE targets that
have child tables. All child tables are listed in the ExecRowMark list,
but the executor just skips the ones that didn't produce the current row.
Curiously, this longstanding restriction doesn't seem to have been documented
anywhere; so no doc changes.

and heap_deformtuple in favor of the newer functions heap_form_tuple et al
(which do the same things but use bool control flags instead of arbitrary
char values). Eliminate the former duplicate coding of these functions,
reducing the deprecated functions to mere wrappers around the newer ones.
We can't get rid of them entirely because add-on modules probably still
contain many instances of the old coding style.

it just return void instead of sometimes returning a TupleTableSlot. SQL
functions don't need that anymore, and noplace else does either. Eliminating
the return value also means one less hassle for the ExecutorRun hook functions
that will be supported beginning in 8.4.
