2017-03-28Remove direct uses of ItemPointer.{ip_blkid,ip_posid}Alvaro Herrera
There are no functional changes here; this simply encapsulates knowledge of the ItemPointerData struct so that a future patch can change things without more breakage. All direct users of ip_blkid and ip_posid are changed to use existing macros ItemPointerGetBlockNumber and ItemPointerGetOffsetNumber respectively. For callers where that's inappropriate (because they Assert that the itempointer is is valid-looking), add ItemPointerGetBlockNumberNoCheck and ItemPointerGetOffsetNumberNoCheck, which lack the assertion but are otherwise identical.

2017-03-27Fix thinko in estimate_num_groupsAlvaro Herrera
The code for the reworked n-distinct estimation on commit 7b504eb282 was written differently in a previous version of the patch, prior to commit; on rewriting it, we missed updating an initializer. This caused the code to (mistakenly) apply a fudge factor even in the case where a single value is applied, leading to incorrect results. This means that the 'relvarcount' variable name is now wrong. Add a comment to try and make the situation clearer, and remove an incorrect comment I added. Problem noticed, and code patch, by Tomas Vondra. Additional commentary by Álvaro.
2017-03-27Fix a couple of problems in pg_get_statisticsextdefAlvaro Herrera
There was a thinko whereby we tested the wrong tuple after fetching it from cache; avoid that by using generate_relation_name instead, which is simpler. Also, the statistics name was not qualified, so add that. (It could be argued that qualification should be conditional on the schema not being on search path. We can add that later, but at least this form is correct.) Author: David Rowley, Álvaro Herrera Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAKJS1f8RjLeVZJ2+93pdQGuZJeBF-ifsHaFMR-q-6-Z0qxA8cA@mail.gmail.com
2017-03-26Show more processes in pg_stat_activity.Robert Haas
Previously, auxiliary processes and background workers not connected to a database (such as the logical replication launcher) weren't shown. Include them, so that we can see the associated wait state information. Add a new column to identify the processes type, so that people can filter them out easily using SQL if they wish. Before this patch was written, there was discussion about whether we should expose this information in a separate view, so as to avoid contaminating pg_stat_activity with things people might not want to see. But putting everything in pg_stat_activity was a more popular choice, so that's what the patch does. Kuntal Ghosh, reviewed by Amit Langote and Michael Paquier. Some revisions and bug fixes by me.

2017-03-25Faster expression evaluation and targetlist projection.Andres Freund
This replaces the old, recursive tree-walk based evaluation, with non-recursive, opcode dispatch based, expression evaluation. Projection is now implemented as part of expression evaluation. This both leads to significant performance improvements, and makes future just-in-time compilation of expressions easier. The speed gains primarily come from: - non-recursive implementation reduces stack usage / overhead - simple sub-expressions are implemented with a single jump, without function calls - sharing some state between different sub-expressions - reduced amount of indirect/hard to predict memory accesses by laying out operation metadata sequentially; including the avoidance of nearly all of the previously used linked lists - more code has been moved to expression initialization, avoiding constant re-checks at evaluation time Future just-in-time compilation (JIT) has become easier, as demonstrated by released patches intended to be merged in a later release, for primarily two reasons: Firstly, due to a stricter split between expression initialization and evaluation, less code has to be handled by the JIT. Secondly, due to the non-recursive nature of the generated "instructions", less performance-critical code-paths can easily be shared between interpreted and compiled evaluation. The new framework allows for significant future optimizations. E.g.: - basic infrastructure for to later reduce the per executor-startup overhead of expression evaluation, by caching state in prepared statements. That'd be helpful in OLTPish scenarios where initialization overhead is measurable. - optimizing the generated "code". A number of proposals for potential work has already been made. - optimizing the interpreter. Similarly a number of proposals have been made here too. The move of logic into the expression initialization step leads to some backward-incompatible changes: - Function permission checks are now done during expression initialization, whereas previously they were done during execution. In edge cases this can lead to errors being raised that previously wouldn't have been, e.g. a NULL array being coerced to a different array type previously didn't perform checks. - The set of domain constraints to be checked, is now evaluated once during expression initialization, previously it was re-built every time a domain check was evaluated. For normal queries this doesn't change much, but e.g. for plpgsql functions, which caches ExprStates, the old set could stick around longer. The behavior around might still change.

2017-03-24Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficientsAlvaro Herrera
Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex combinations that individual table columns. Companion commands DROP STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are added too. All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions. This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient on user-specified sets of columns in a single table. This is useful to estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses; estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve. A new special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used. (num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi: https://postgr.es/m/20150828.173334.114731693.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp though this commit does not use that code.)

2017-03-23ICU supportPeter Eisentraut
Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library provides the collation data. The existing choices are default and libc, and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library. The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the provider-specific locale handles. Users of locale information are changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use. Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same. This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt indexes and other structures. This is currently only supported by ICU-provided collations. initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale -a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu" appended. Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named collations. The global database locales are still always libc-provided. ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

2017-03-23Logical replication support for initial data copyPeter Eisentraut
Add functionality for a new subscription to copy the initial data in the tables and then sync with the ongoing apply process. For the copying, add a new internal COPY option to have the COPY source data provided by a callback function. The initial data copy works on the subscriber by receiving COPY data from the publisher and then providing it locally into a COPY that writes to the destination table. A WAL receiver can now execute full SQL commands. This is used here to obtain information about tables and publications. Several new options were added to CREATE and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION to control whether and when initial table syncing happens. Change pg_dump option --no-create-subscription-slots to --no-subscription-connect and use the new CREATE SUBSCRIPTION ... NOCONNECT option for that.

2017-03-16Be more careful about signed vs. unsigned charStephen Frost
The buildfarm has reminded me that not all systems consider char to be signed and we need to be explicit. Adjust the various bits of mac8.c for what we intend, mostly using casts to unsigned char as suggested by Tom, and adjust the tests for valid input accordingly. Explicitly make the hexlookup table signed as it's useful to use -1 there to indicate an invalid value.
2017-03-15Clean up overly paranoid checks in mac8.cStephen Frost
Andres' compiler points out, quite correctly, that there's no need for some of the overly paranoid checks which were put into mac8.c. Remove those, as they're useless, add some comments and make a few other minor improvements- reduce the size of hexlookup by making it a char array instead of an int array, and pass in the ptr location directly instead of making hex2_to_uchar re-calculate the location based off the offset every time.
2017-03-15Add support for EUI-64 MAC addresses as macaddr8Stephen Frost
This adds in support for EUI-64 MAC addresses by adding a new data type called 'macaddr8' (using our usual convention of indicating the number of bytes stored). This was largely a copy-and-paste from the macaddr data type, with appropriate adjustments for having 8 bytes instead of 6 and adding support for converting a provided EUI-48 (6 byte format) to the EUI-64 format. Conversion from EUI-48 to EUI-64 inserts FFFE as the 4th and 5th bytes but does not perform the IPv6 modified EUI-64 action of flipping the 7th bit, but we add a function to perform that specific action for the user as it may be commonly done by users who wish to calculate their IPv6 address based on their network prefix and 48-bit MAC address.

2017-03-12Use wrappers of PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED() more.Noah Misch
This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the previous commit. Specific decisions: - Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt maintainers of non-core text search code will notice. - Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return values of SendFunctionCall(). - Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment. - For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside GBT_VARKEY, on disk. - For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple credible implementation strategies to consider.

2017-03-08Support XMLTABLE query expressionAlvaro Herrera
XMLTABLE is defined by the SQL/XML standard as a feature that allows turning XML-formatted data into relational form, so that it can be used as a <table primary> in the FROM clause of a query. This new construct provides significant simplicity and performance benefit for XML data processing; what in a client-side custom implementation was reported to take 20 minutes can be executed in 400ms using XMLTABLE. (The same functionality was said to take 10 seconds using nested PostgreSQL XPath function calls, and 5 seconds using XMLReader under PL/Python). The implemented syntax deviates slightly from what the standard requires. First, the standard indicates that the PASSING clause is optional and that multiple XML input documents may be given to it; we make it mandatory and accept a single document only. Second, we don't currently support a default namespace to be specified. This implementation relies on a new executor node based on a hardcoded method table. (Because the grammar is fixed, there is no extensibility in the current approach; further constructs can be implemented on top of this such as JSON_TABLE, but they require changes to core code.)

While at it, also fix some places that were ignoring our standard pattern of "include postgres[_fe].h, then system header files, then other Postgres header files". While there's not any great magic in doing it that way rather than system headers last, it's silly to have just a few files deviating from the general pattern. (But I didn't attempt to enforce this globally, only in files I was touching anyway.) I'd be the first to say that this is mostly compulsive neatnik-ism, but over time it might save enough compile cycles to be useful.

2017-02-23Consistently declare timestamp variables as TimestampTz.Tom Lane
Twiddle the replication-related code so that its timestamp variables are declared TimestampTz, rather than the uninformative "int64" that was previously used for meant-to-be-always-integer timestamps. This resolves the int64-vs-TimestampTz declaration inconsistencies introduced by commit 7c030783a, though in the opposite direction to what was originally suggested. This required including datatype/timestamp.h in a couple more places than before. I decided it would be a good idea to slim down that header by not having it pull in <float.h> etc, as those headers are no longer at all relevant to its purpose. Unsurprisingly, a small number of .c files turn out to have been depending on those inclusions, so add them back in the .c files as needed.

The S/390 members of the buildfarm are showing failures indicating that they're having trouble with the rint() calls I added yesterday. There's no good reason for that, and I wonder if it is a compiler bug similar to the one we worked around in d9476b838. Try to fix it using the same method as before, namely to store the result of rint() back into a "double" variable rather than immediately converting to int64. (This isn't entirely waving a dead chicken, since on machines with wider-than-double float registers, the extra store forces a width conversion. I don't know if S/390 is like that, but it seems worth trying.) In passing, merge duplicate ereport() calls in float8_timestamptz(). Per buildfarm.
2017-02-08Fix roundoff problems in float8_timestamptz() and make_interval().Tom Lane
When converting a float value to integer microseconds, we should be careful to round the value to the nearest integer, typically with rint(); simply assigning to an int64 variable will truncate, causing apparently off-by-one values in cases that should work. Most places in the datetime code got this right, but not these two. float8_timestamptz() is new as of commit e511d878f (9.6). Previous versions effectively depended on interval_mul() to do roundoff correctly, which it does, so this fixes an accuracy regression in 9.6. The problem in make_interval() dates to its introduction in 9.4. Aside from being careful to round not truncate, let's incorporate the hours and minutes inputs into the result with exact integer arithmetic, rather than risk introducing roundoff error where there need not have been any. float8_timestamptz() problem reported by Erik Nordström, though this is not his proposed patch. make_interval() problem found by me.

!foo means "the tsvector does not contain foo", and therefore it should match an empty tsvector. ts_match_vq() overenthusiastically supposed that an empty tsvector could never match any query, so it forcibly returned FALSE, the wrong answer. Remove the premature optimization. Our behavior on this point was inconsistent, because while seqscans and GIST index searches both failed to match empty tsvectors, GIN index searches would find them, since GIN scans don't rely on ts_match_vq().
