2019-05-22Phase 2 pgindent run for v12.Tom Lane
Switch to 2.1 version of pg_bsd_indent. This formats multiline function declarations "correctly", that is with additional lines of parameter declarations indented to match where the first line's left parenthesis is.

2019-03-22Collations with nondeterministic comparisonPeter Eisentraut
This adds a flag "deterministic" to collations. If that is false, such a collation disables various optimizations that assume that strings are equal only if they are byte-wise equal. That then allows use cases such as case-insensitive or accent-insensitive comparisons or handling of strings with different Unicode normal forms. This functionality is only supported with the ICU provider. At least glibc doesn't appear to have any locales that work in a nondeterministic way, so it's not worth supporting this for the libc provider. The term "deterministic comparison" in this context is from Unicode Technical Standard #10 (https://unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Deterministic_Comparison). This patch makes changes in three areas: - CREATE COLLATION DDL changes and system catalog changes to support this new flag. - Many executor nodes and auxiliary code are extended to track collations. Previously, this code would just throw away collation information, because the eventually-called user-defined functions didn't use it since they only cared about equality, which didn't need collation information. - String data type functions that do equality comparisons and hashing are changed to take the (non-)deterministic flag into account. For comparison, this just means skipping various shortcuts and tie breakers that use byte-wise comparison. For hashing, we first need to convert the input string to a canonical "sort key" using the ICU analogue of strxfrm().

2018-01-01Fix EXPLAIN ANALYZE output for Parallel Hash.Andres Freund
In a race case, EXPLAIN ANALYZE could fail to display correct nbatch and size information. Refactor so that participants report only on batches they worked on rather than trying to report on all of them, and teach explain.c to consider the HashInstrumentation object from all participants instead of picking the first one it can find. This should fix an occasional build farm failure in the "join" regression test. Author: Thomas Munro Reviewed-By: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/30219.1514428346%40sss.pgh.pa.us
2017-12-21Add parallel-aware hash joins.Andres Freund
Introduce parallel-aware hash joins that appear in EXPLAIN plans as Parallel Hash Join with Parallel Hash. While hash joins could already appear in parallel queries, they were previously always parallel-oblivious and had a partial subplan only on the outer side, meaning that the work of the inner subplan was duplicated in every worker. After this commit, the planner will consider using a partial subplan on the inner side too, using the Parallel Hash node to divide the work over the available CPU cores and combine its results in shared memory. If the join needs to be split into multiple batches in order to respect work_mem, then workers process different batches as much as possible and then work together on the remaining batches. The advantages of a parallel-aware hash join over a parallel-oblivious hash join used in a parallel query are that it: * avoids wasting memory on duplicated hash tables * avoids wasting disk space on duplicated batch files * divides the work of building the hash table over the CPUs One disadvantage is that there is some communication between the participating CPUs which might outweigh the benefits of parallelism in the case of small hash tables. This is avoided by the planner's existing reluctance to supply partial plans for small scans, but it may be necessary to estimate synchronization costs in future if that situation changes. Another is that outer batch 0 must be written to disk if multiple batches are required. A potential future advantage of parallel-aware hash joins is that right and full outer joins could be supported, since there is a single set of matched bits for each hashtable, but that is not yet implemented. A new GUC enable_parallel_hash is defined to control the feature, defaulting to on.

2017-12-19Try again to fix accumulation of parallel worker instrumentation.Robert Haas
When a Gather or Gather Merge node is started and stopped multiple times, accumulate instrumentation data only once, at the end, instead of after each execution, to avoid recording inflated totals. Commit 778e78ae9fa51e58f41cbdc72b293291d02d8984, the previous attempt at a fix, instead reset the state after every execution, which worked for the general instrumentation data but had problems for the additional instrumentation specific to Sort and Hash nodes. Report by hubert depesz lubaczewski. Analysis and fix by Amit Kapila, following a design proposal from Thomas Munro, with a comment tweak by me.

2017-12-05Fix EXPLAIN ANALYZE of hash join when the leader doesn't participate.Andres Freund
If a hash join appears in a parallel query, there may be no hash table available for explain.c to inspect even though a hash table may have been built in other processes. This could happen either because parallel_leader_participation was set to off or because the leader happened to hit the end of the outer relation immediately (even though the complete relation is not empty) and decided not to build the hash table. Commit bf11e7ee introduced a way for workers to exchange instrumentation via the DSM segment for Sort nodes even though they are not parallel-aware. This commit does the same for Hash nodes, so that explain.c has a way to find instrumentation data from an arbitrary participant that actually built the hash table.

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).

2017-06-21Phase 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.

2010-12-30Support RIGHT and FULL OUTER JOIN in hash joins.Tom Lane
This is advantageous first because it allows us to hash the smaller table regardless of the outer-join type, and second because hash join can be more flexible than merge join in dealing with arbitrary join quals in a FULL join. For merge join all the join quals have to be mergejoinable, but hash join will work so long as there's at least one hashjoinable qual --- the others can be any condition. (This is true essentially because we don't keep per-inner-tuple match flags in merge join, while hash join can do so.) To do this, we need a has-it-been-matched flag for each tuple in the hashtable, not just one for the current outer tuple. The key idea that makes this practical is that we can store the match flag in the tuple's infomask, since there are lots of bits there that are of no interest for a MinimalTuple. So we aren't increasing the size of the hashtable at all for the feature. To write this without turning the hash code into even more of a pile of spaghetti than it already was, I rewrote ExecHashJoin in a state-machine style, similar to ExecMergeJoin. Other than that decision, it was pretty straightforward.

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.

2007-01-30Add support for cross-type hashing in hash index searches and hash joins.Tom Lane

2002-12-05Phase 1 of read-only-plans project: cause executor state nodes to pointTom Lane
to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links). 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.
2002-11-30Upgrade planner and executor to allow multiple hash keys for a hash join,Tom Lane
