Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP. This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review. The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

#include "access/tsmapi.h"
Add support for INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING/UPDATE. The newly added ON CONFLICT clause allows to specify an alternative to raising a unique or exclusion constraint violation error when inserting. ON CONFLICT refers to constraints that can either be specified using a inference clause (by specifying the columns of a unique constraint) or by naming a unique or exclusion constraint. DO NOTHING avoids the constraint violation, without touching the pre-existing row. DO UPDATE SET ... [WHERE ...] updates the pre-existing tuple, and has access to both the tuple proposed for insertion and the existing tuple; the optional WHERE clause can be used to prevent an update from being executed. The UPDATE SET and WHERE clauses have access to the tuple proposed for insertion using the "magic" EXCLUDED alias, and to the pre-existing tuple using the table name or its alias. This feature is often referred to as upsert. This is implemented using a new infrastructure called "speculative insertion". It is an optimistic variant of regular insertion that first does a pre-check for existing tuples and then attempts an insert. If a violating tuple was inserted concurrently, the speculatively inserted tuple is deleted and a new attempt is made. If the pre-check finds a matching tuple the alternative DO NOTHING or DO UPDATE action is taken. If the insertion succeeds without detecting a conflict, the tuple is deemed inserted. To handle the possible ambiguity between the excluded alias and a table named excluded, and for convenience with long relation names, INSERT INTO now can alias its target table. Bumps catversion as stored rules change. Author: Peter Geoghegan, with significant contributions from Heikki Linnakangas and Andres Freund. Testing infrastructure by Jeff Janes.

Fix ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN to disallow the same column types that are disallowed by CREATE TABLE (eg, pseudo-types); also disallow these types from being introduced by the range-function syntax. While at it, allow CREATE TABLE to create zero-column tables, per recent pghackers discussion. I am back-patching this into 7.3 since failure to disallow pseudo-types is arguably a security hole.

#include "catalog/heap.h"
Restructure index access method API to hide most of it at the C level. This patch reduces pg_am to just two columns, a name and a handler function. All the data formerly obtained from pg_am is now provided in a C struct returned by the handler function. This is similar to the designs we've adopted for FDWs and tablesample methods. There are multiple advantages. For one, the index AM's support functions are now simple C functions, making them faster to call and much less error-prone, since the C compiler can now check function signatures. For another, this will make it far more practical to define index access methods in installable extensions. A disadvantage is that SQL-level code can no longer see attributes of index AMs; in particular, some of the crosschecks in the opr_sanity regression test are no longer possible from SQL. We've addressed that by adding a facility for the index AM to perform such checks instead. (Much more could be done in that line, but for now we're content if the amvalidate functions more or less replace what opr_sanity used to do.) We might also want to expose some sort of reporting functionality, but this patch doesn't do that. Alexander Korotkov, reviewed by Petr Jelínek, and rather heavily editorialized on by me.

Support XMLTABLE query expression 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.)

#include "catalog/pg_collation.h"
Move pg_constraint.h function declarations to new file pg_constraint_fn.h. A pending patch requires exporting a function returning Bitmapset from catalog/pg_constraint.c. As things stand, that would mean including nodes/bitmapset.h in pg_constraint.h, which might be hazardous for the client-side includability of that header. It's not entirely clear whether any client-side code needs to include pg_constraint.h, but it seems prudent to assume that there is some such code somewhere. Therefore, split off the function definitions into a new file pg_constraint_fn.h, similarly to what we've done for some other catalog header files.

#include "optimizer/tlist.h"
Refactor pull_var_clause's API to make it less tedious to extend. In commit 1d97c19a0f748e94 and later c1d9579dd8bf3c92, we extended pull_var_clause's API by adding enum-type arguments. That's sort of a pain to maintain, though, because it means every time we add a new behavior we must touch every last one of the call sites, even if there's a reasonable default behavior that most of them could use. Let's switch over to using a bitmask of flags, instead; that seems more maintainable and might save a nanosecond or two as well. This commit changes no behavior in itself, though I'm going to follow it up with one that does add a new behavior. In passing, remove flatten_tlist(), which has not been used since 9.1 and would otherwise need the same API changes. Removing these enums means that optimizer/tlist.h no longer needs to depend on optimizer/var.h. Changing that caused a number of C files to need addition of #include "optimizer/var.h" (probably we can thank old runs of pgrminclude for that); but on balance it seems like a good change anyway.

Support multi-argument UNNEST(), and TABLE() syntax for multiple functions. This patch adds the ability to write TABLE( function1(), function2(), ...) as a single FROM-clause entry. The result is the concatenation of the first row from each function, followed by the second row from each function, etc; with NULLs inserted if any function produces fewer rows than others. This is believed to be a much more useful behavior than what Postgres currently does with multiple SRFs in a SELECT list. This syntax also provides a reasonable way to combine use of column definition lists with WITH ORDINALITY: put the column definition list inside TABLE(), where it's clear that it doesn't control the ordinality column as well. Also implement SQL-compliant multiple-argument UNNEST(), by turning UNNEST(a,b,c) into TABLE(unnest(a), unnest(b), unnest(c)). The SQL standard specifies TABLE() with only a single function, not multiple functions, and it seems to require an implicit UNNEST() which is not what this patch does. There may be something wrong with that reading of the spec, though, because if it's right then the spec's TABLE() is just a pointless alternative spelling of UNNEST(). After further review of that, we might choose to adopt a different syntax for what this patch does, but in any case this functionality seems clearly worthwhile.

Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation. All expression nodes now have an explicit output-collation field, unless they are known to only return a noncollatable data type (such as boolean or record). Also, nodes that can invoke collation-aware functions store a separate field that is the collation value to pass to the function. This avoids confusion that arises when a function has collatable inputs and noncollatable output type, or vice versa. Also, replace the parser's on-the-fly collation assignment method with a post-pass over the completed expression tree. This allows us to use a more complex (and hopefully more nearly spec-compliant) assignment rule without paying for it in extra storage in every expression node. Fix assorted bugs in the planner's handling of collations by making collation one of the defining properties of an EquivalenceClass and by converting CollateExprs into discardable RelabelType nodes during expression preprocessing.

Clean up the #include mess a little. walsender.h should depend on xlog.h, not vice versa. (Actually, the inclusion was circular until a couple hours ago, which was even sillier; but Bruce broke it in the expedient rather than logically correct direction.) Because of that poor decision, plus blind application of pgrminclude, we had a situation where half the system was depending on xlog.h to include such unrelated stuff as array.h and guc.h. Clean up the header inclusion, and manually revert a lot of what pgrminclude had done so things build again. This episode reinforces my feeling that pgrminclude should not be run without adult supervision. Inclusion changes in header files in particular need to be reviewed with great care. More generally, it'd be good if we had a clearer notion of module layering to dictate which headers can sanely include which others ... but that's a big task for another day.

I'll work on improving that stuff later. Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.

Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references. A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

There are some unimplemented aspects: recursive queries must use UNION ALL (should allow UNION too), and we don't have SEARCH or CYCLE clauses. These might or might not get done for 8.4, but even without them it's a pretty useful feature. There are also a couple of small loose ends and definitional quibbles, which I'll send a memo about to pgsql-hackers shortly. But let's land the patch now so we can get on with other development.

Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references. A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

Support XMLTABLE query expression 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.)

Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review. The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same way that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch.

This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags.

Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason.

It originally seemed like a good idea to make them act exactly like GROUP BY and ORDER BY, right down to the SQL92-era behavior of accepting output column names or numbers. However, that was not such a great idea, for two reasons: 1. It permits circular references, as exhibited in bug #5018: the output column could be the one containing the window function itself. (We actually had a regression test case illustrating this, but nobody thought twice about how confusing that would be.) 2. It doesn't seem like a good idea for, eg, "lead(foo) OVER (ORDER BY foo)" to potentially use two completely different meanings for "foo". Accordingly, narrow down the behavior of window clauses to use only the SQL99-compliant interpretation that the expressions are simple expressions.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone.

Add support for INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING/UPDATE. The newly added ON CONFLICT clause allows to specify an alternative to raising a unique or exclusion constraint violation error when inserting. ON CONFLICT refers to constraints that can either be specified using a inference clause (by specifying the columns of a unique constraint) or by naming a unique or exclusion constraint. DO NOTHING avoids the constraint violation, without touching the pre-existing row. DO UPDATE SET ... [WHERE ...] updates the pre-existing tuple, and has access to both the tuple proposed for insertion and the existing tuple; the optional WHERE clause can be used to prevent an update from being executed. The UPDATE SET and WHERE clauses have access to the tuple proposed for insertion using the "magic" EXCLUDED alias, and to the pre-existing tuple using the table name or its alias. This feature is often referred to as upsert. This is implemented using a new infrastructure called "speculative insertion". It is an optimistic variant of regular insertion that first does a pre-check for existing tuples and then attempts an insert. If a violating tuple was inserted concurrently, the speculatively inserted tuple is deleted and a new attempt is made. If the pre-check finds a matching tuple the alternative DO NOTHING or DO UPDATE action is taken. If the insertion succeeds without detecting a conflict, the tuple is deemed inserted. To handle the possible ambiguity between the excluded alias and a table named excluded, and for convenience with long relation names, INSERT INTO now can alias its target table. Bumps catversion as stored rules change. Author: Peter Geoghegan, with significant contributions from Heikki Linnakangas and Andres Freund. Testing infrastructure by Jeff Janes.

Teach the system how to use hashing for UNION. (INTERSECT/EXCEPT will follow, but seem like a separate patch since most of the remaining work is on the executor side.) I took the opportunity to push selection of the grouping operators for set operations into the parser where it belongs. Otherwise this is just a small exercise in making prepunion.c consider both alternatives. As with the recent DISTINCT patch, this means we can UNION on datatypes that can hash but not sort, and it means that UNION without ORDER BY is no longer certain to produce sorted output.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search. This seems to eliminate the parse-time bottleneck for deeply nested JOIN structures that was exhibited by phil@vodafone.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

All INSERT-specific processing happens after the SELECT parsing is done. This eliminates many problems, e.g. INSERT ... SELECT ... GROUP BY using the wrong column labels. Ensure that DEFAULT clauses are coerced to the target column type, whether or not stored clause produces the right type. Substantial cleanup of parser's array support.

Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references. A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

Change addRangeTableEntryForRelation() to take a Relation pointer instead of just a relation OID, thereby not having to open the relation for itself.

This allows an RTE specifying, say, INSERT privilege on a view to be copied into a derived UPDATE query without changing meaning. Per recent discussion thread. initdb forced due to change of stored rule representation.

rte->requiredPerms = requiredPerms;
Subselects in FROM clause, per ISO syntax: FROM (SELECT ...) [AS] alias. (Don't forget that an alias is required.) Views reimplemented as expanding to subselect-in-FROM. Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually work now (he says optimistically). No UNION support in subselects/views yet, but I have some ideas about that. Rule-related permissions checking moved out of rewriter and into executor. INITDB REQUIRED!

Change scoping of table and join refnames to conform to SQL92: a JOIN clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references appearing within it, according to the spec. This is the same as the preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct alias name depending on context. I'd rather not have done that, but unless we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.

/*
Merge parser's p_relnamespace and p_varnamespace lists into a single list. Now that we are storing structs in these lists, the distinction between the two lists can be represented with a couple of extra flags while using only a single list. This simplifies the code and should save a little bit of palloc traffic, since the majority of RTEs are represented in both lists anyway.

* If UPDATE/DELETE, add table to joinlist and namespace.
Fix LATERAL references to target table of UPDATE/DELETE. I failed to think much about UPDATE/DELETE when implementing LATERAL :-(. The implemented behavior ended up being that subqueries in the FROM or USING clause (respectively) could access the update/delete target table as though it were a lateral reference; which seems fine if they said LATERAL, but certainly ought to draw an error if they didn't. Fix it so you get a suitable error when you omit LATERAL. Per report from Emre Hasegeli.

Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search. This seems to eliminate the parse-time bottleneck for deeply nested JOIN structures that was exhibited by phil@vodafone.

Clean up the mess around EXPLAIN and materialized views. Revert the matview-related changes in explain.c's API, as per recent complaint from Robert Haas. The reason for these appears to have been principally some ill-considered choices around having intorel_startup do what ought to be parse-time checking, plus a poor arrangement for passing it the view parsetree it needs to store into pg_rewrite when creating a materialized view. Do the latter by having parse analysis stick a copy into the IntoClause, instead of doing it at runtime. (On the whole, I seriously question the choice to represent CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW as a variant of SELECT INTO/CREATE TABLE AS, because that means injecting even more complexity into what was already a horrid legacy kluge. However, I didn't go so far as to rethink that choice ... yet.) I also moved several error checks into matview parse analysis, and made the check for external Params in a matview more accurate. In passing, clean things up a bit more around interpretOidsOption(), and fix things so that we can use that to force no-oids for views, sequences, etc, thereby eliminating the need to cons up "oids = false" options when creating them. catversion bump due to change in IntoClause.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Avoid recursion when processing simple lists of AND'ed or OR'ed clauses. Since most of the system thinks AND and OR are N-argument expressions anyway, let's have the grammar generate a representation of that form when dealing with input like "x AND y AND z AND ...", rather than generating a deeply-nested binary tree that just has to be flattened later by the planner. This avoids stack overflow in parse analysis when dealing with queries having more than a few thousand such clauses; and in any case it removes some rather unsightly inconsistencies, since some parts of parse analysis were generating N-argument ANDs/ORs already. It's still possible to get a stack overflow with weirdly parenthesized input, such as "x AND (y AND (z AND ( ... )))", but such cases are not mainstream usage. The maximum depth of parenthesization is already limited by Bison's stack in such cases, anyway, so that the limit is probably fairly platform-independent.

* We cheat a little bit here by building an untransformed operator tree
Get rid of multiple applications of transformExpr() to the same tree. transformExpr() has for many years had provisions to do nothing when applied to an already-transformed expression tree. However, this was always ugly and of dubious reliability, so we'd be much better off without it. The primary historical reason for it was that gram.y sometimes returned multiple links to the same subexpression, which is no longer true as of my BETWEEN fixes. We'd also grown some lazy hacks in CREATE TABLE LIKE (failing to distinguish between raw and already-transformed index specifications) and one or two other places. This patch removes the need for and support for re-transforming already transformed expressions. The index case is dealt with by adding a flag to struct IndexStmt to indicate that it's already been transformed; which has some benefit anyway in that tablecmds.c can now Assert that transformation has happened rather than just assuming. The other main reason was some rather sloppy code for array type coercion, which can be fixed (and its performance improved too) by refactoring. I did leave transformJoinUsingClause() still constructing expressions containing untransformed operator nodes being applied to Vars, so that transformExpr() still has to allow Var inputs. But that's a much narrower, and safer, special case than before, since Vars will never appear in a raw parse tree, and they don't have any substructure to worry about. In passing fix some oversights in the patch that added CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS (missing processing of IndexStmt.if_not_exists). These appear relatively harmless, but still sloppy coding practice.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Improve parser so that we can show an error cursor position for errors during parse analysis, not only errors detected in the flex/bison stages. This is per my earlier proposal. This commit includes all the basic infrastructure, but locations are only tracked and reported for errors involving column references, function calls, and operators. More could be done later but this seems like a good set to start with. I've also moved the ReportSyntaxErrorPosition logic out of psql and into libpq, which should make it available to more people --- even within psql this is an improvement because warnings weren't handled by ReportSyntaxErrorPosition.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone. (I didn't risk actually removing said dead code, though.)

Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same way that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch. Note: PREPARE statement still insists on exact specification of parameter types, but that could easily be relaxed now, if we wanted to do so.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Replace enum InhOption with simple boolean. Now that it has only INH_NO and INH_YES values, it's just weird that it's not a plain bool, so make it that way. Also rename RangeVar.inhOpt to "inh", to be like RangeTblEntry.inh. My recollection is that we gave it a different name specifically because it had a different representation than the derived bool value, but it no longer does. And this is a good forcing function to be sure we catch any places that are affected by the change. Bump catversion because of possible effect on stored RangeVar nodes. I'm not exactly convinced that we ever store RangeVar on disk, but we have a readfuncs function for it, so be cautious. (If we do do so, then commit e13486eba was in error not to bump catversion.)

Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search.

Support data-modifying commands (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) in WITH. This patch implements data-modifying WITH queries according to the semantics that the updates all happen with the same command counter value, and in an unspecified order. Therefore one WITH clause can't see the effects of another, nor can the outer query see the effects other than through the RETURNING values. And attempts to do conflicting updates will have unpredictable results. We'll need to document all that. This commit just fixes the code; documentation updates are waiting on author.

Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references. A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone.

Make FOR UPDATE/SHARE in the primary query not propagate into WITH queries; for example in WITH w AS (SELECT * FROM foo) SELECT * FROM w, bar ... FOR UPDATE the FOR UPDATE will now affect bar but not foo. This is more useful and consistent than the original 8.4 behavior, which tried to propagate FOR UPDATE into the WITH query but always failed due to assorted implementation restrictions. Even though we are in process of removing those restrictions, it seems correct on philosophical grounds to not let the outer query's FOR UPDATE affect the WITH query. In passing, fix isLockedRel which frequently got things wrong in nested-subquery cases: "FOR UPDATE OF foo" applies to an alias foo in the current query level, not subqueries. This has been broken for a long time, but it doesn't seem worth back-patching further than 8.4 because the actual consequences are minimal. At worst the parser would sometimes get RowShareLock on a relation when it should be AccessShareLock or vice versa. That would only make a difference if someone were using ExclusiveLock concurrently, which no standard operation does, and anyway FOR UPDATE doesn't result in visible changes so it's not clear that the someone would notice any problem. Between that and the fact that FOR UPDATE barely works with subqueries at all in existing releases, I'm not excited about worrying about it.

Change unknown-type literals to type text in SELECT and RETURNING lists. Previously, we left such literals alone if the query or subquery had no properties forcing a type decision to be made (such as an ORDER BY or DISTINCT clause using that output column). This meant that "unknown" could be an exposed output column type, which has never been a great idea because it could result in strange failures later on. For example, an outer query that tried to do any operations on an unknown-type subquery output would generally fail with some weird error like "failed to find conversion function from unknown to text" or "could not determine which collation to use for string comparison". Also, if the case occurred in a CREATE VIEW's query then the view would have an unknown-type column, causing similar failures in queries trying to use the view. To fix, at the tail end of parse analysis of a query, forcibly convert any remaining "unknown" literals in its SELECT or RETURNING list to type text. However, provide a switch to suppress that, and use it in the cases of SELECT inside a set operation or INSERT command. In those cases we already had type resolution rules that make use of context information from outside the subquery proper, and we don't want to change that behavior. Also, change creation of an unknown-type column in a relation from a warning to a hard error. The error should be unreachable now in CREATE VIEW or CREATE MATVIEW, but it's still possible to explicitly say "unknown" in CREATE TABLE or CREATE (composite) TYPE. We want to forbid that because it's nothing but a foot-gun. This change creates a pg_upgrade failure case: a matview that contains an unknown-type column can't be pg_upgraded, because reparsing the matview's defining query will now decide that the column is of type text, which doesn't match the cstring-like storage that the old materialized column would actually have. Add a checking pass to detect that. While at it, we can detect tables or composite types that would fail, essentially for free. Those would fail safely anyway later on, but we might as well fail earlier. This patch is by me, but it owes something to previous investigations by Rahila Syed. Also thanks to Ashutosh Bapat and Michael Paquier for review. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAH2L28uwwbL9HUM-WR=hromW1Cvamkn7O-g8fPY2m=_7muJ0oA@mail.gmail.com

/*
Change representation of statement lists, and add statement location info. This patch makes several changes that improve the consistency of representation of lists of statements. It's always been the case that the output of parse analysis is a list of Query nodes, whatever the types of the individual statements in the list. This patch brings similar consistency to the outputs of raw parsing and planning steps: * The output of raw parsing is now always a list of RawStmt nodes; the statement-type-dependent nodes are one level down from that. * The output of pg_plan_queries() is now always a list of PlannedStmt nodes, even for utility statements. In the case of a utility statement, "planning" just consists of wrapping a CMD_UTILITY PlannedStmt around the utility node. This list representation is now used in Portal and CachedPlan plan lists, replacing the former convention of intermixing PlannedStmts with bare utility-statement nodes. Now, every list of statements has a consistent head-node type depending on how far along it is in processing. This allows changing many places that formerly used generic "Node *" pointers to use a more specific pointer type, thus reducing the number of IsA() tests and casts needed, as well as improving code clarity. Also, the post-parse-analysis representation of DECLARE CURSOR is changed so that it looks more like EXPLAIN, PREPARE, etc. That is, the contained SELECT remains a child of the DeclareCursorStmt rather than getting flipped around to be the other way. It's now true for both Query and PlannedStmt that utilityStmt is non-null if and only if commandType is CMD_UTILITY. That allows simplifying a lot of places that were testing both fields. (I think some of those were just defensive programming, but in many places, it was actually necessary to avoid confusing DECLARE CURSOR with SELECT.) Because PlannedStmt carries a canSetTag field, we're also able to get rid of some ad-hoc rules about how to reconstruct canSetTag for a bare utility statement; specifically, the assumption that a utility is canSetTag if and only if it's the only one in its list. While I see no near-term need for relaxing that restriction, it's nice to get rid of the ad-hocery. The API of ProcessUtility() is changed so that what it's passed is the wrapper PlannedStmt not just the bare utility statement. This will affect all users of ProcessUtility_hook, but the changes are pretty trivial; see the affected contrib modules for examples of the minimum change needed. (Most compilers should give pointer-type-mismatch warnings for uncorrected code.) There's also a change in the API of ExplainOneQuery_hook, to pass through cursorOptions instead of expecting hook functions to know what to pick. This is needed because of the DECLARE CURSOR changes, but really should have been done in 9.6; it's unlikely that any extant hook functions know about using CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK.

Change representation of statement lists, and add statement location info. This patch makes several changes that improve the consistency of representation of lists of statements. It's always been the case that the output of parse analysis is a list of Query nodes, whatever the types of the individual statements in the list. This patch brings similar consistency to the outputs of raw parsing and planning steps: * The output of raw parsing is now always a list of RawStmt nodes; the statement-type-dependent nodes are one level down from that. * The output of pg_plan_queries() is now always a list of PlannedStmt nodes, even for utility statements. In the case of a utility statement, "planning" just consists of wrapping a CMD_UTILITY PlannedStmt around the utility node. This list representation is now used in Portal and CachedPlan plan lists, replacing the former convention of intermixing PlannedStmts with bare utility-statement nodes. Now, every list of statements has a consistent head-node type depending on how far along it is in processing. This allows changing many places that formerly used generic "Node *" pointers to use a more specific pointer type, thus reducing the number of IsA() tests and casts needed, as well as improving code clarity. Also, the post-parse-analysis representation of DECLARE CURSOR is changed so that it looks more like EXPLAIN, PREPARE, etc. That is, the contained SELECT remains a child of the DeclareCursorStmt rather than getting flipped around to be the other way. It's now true for both Query and PlannedStmt that utilityStmt is non-null if and only if commandType is CMD_UTILITY. That allows simplifying a lot of places that were testing both fields. (I think some of those were just defensive programming, but in many places, it was actually necessary to avoid confusing DECLARE CURSOR with SELECT.) Because PlannedStmt carries a canSetTag field, we're also able to get rid of some ad-hoc rules about how to reconstruct canSetTag for a bare utility statement; specifically, the assumption that a utility is canSetTag if and only if it's the only one in its list. While I see no near-term need for relaxing that restriction, it's nice to get rid of the ad-hocery. The API of ProcessUtility() is changed so that what it's passed is the wrapper PlannedStmt not just the bare utility statement. This will affect all users of ProcessUtility_hook, but the changes are pretty trivial; see the affected contrib modules for examples of the minimum change needed. (Most compilers should give pointer-type-mismatch warnings for uncorrected code.) There's also a change in the API of ExplainOneQuery_hook, to pass through cursorOptions instead of expecting hook functions to know what to pick. This is needed because of the DECLARE CURSOR changes, but really should have been done in 9.6; it's unlikely that any extant hook functions know about using CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK. Finally, teach gram.y to save statement boundary locations in RawStmt nodes, and pass those through to Query and PlannedStmt nodes. This allows more intelligent handling of cases where a source query string contains multiple statements. This patch doesn't actually do anything with the information, but a follow-on patch will. (Passing this information through cleanly is the true motivation for these changes; while I think this is all good cleanup, it's unlikely we'd have bothered without this end goal.) catversion bump because addition of location fields to struct Query affects stored rules.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Support multi-argument UNNEST(), and TABLE() syntax for multiple functions. This patch adds the ability to write TABLE( function1(), function2(), ...) as a single FROM-clause entry. The result is the concatenation of the first row from each function, followed by the second row from each function, etc; with NULLs inserted if any function produces fewer rows than others. This is believed to be a much more useful behavior than what Postgres currently does with multiple SRFs in a SELECT list. This syntax also provides a reasonable way to combine use of column definition lists with WITH ORDINALITY: put the column definition list inside TABLE(), where it's clear that it doesn't control the ordinality column as well. Also implement SQL-compliant multiple-argument UNNEST(), by turning UNNEST(a,b,c) into TABLE(unnest(a), unnest(b), unnest(c)). The SQL standard specifies TABLE() with only a single function, not multiple functions, and it seems to require an implicit UNNEST() which is not what this patch does. There may be something wrong with that reading of the spec, though, because if it's right then the spec's TABLE() is just a pointless alternative spelling of UNNEST(). After further review of that, we might choose to adopt a different syntax for what this patch does, but in any case this functionality seems clearly worthwhile.

Make LATERAL implicit for functions in FROM. The SQL standard does not have general functions-in-FROM, but it does allow UNNEST() there (see the <collection derived table> production), and the semantics of that are defined to include lateral references. So spec compliance requires allowing lateral references within UNNEST() even without an explicit LATERAL keyword. Rather than making UNNEST() a special case, it seems best to extend this flexibility to any function-in-FROM. We'll still allow LATERAL to be written explicitly for clarity's sake, but it's now a noise word in this context. In theory this change could result in a change in behavior of existing queries, by allowing what had been an outer reference in a function-in-FROM to be captured by an earlier FROM-item at the same level. However, all pre-9.3 PG releases have a bug that causes them to match variable references to earlier FROM-items in preference to outer references (and then throw an error). So no previously-working query could contain the type of ambiguity that would risk a change of behavior. Per a suggestion from Andrew Gierth, though I didn't use his patch.

Disallow set-returning functions inside CASE or COALESCE. When we reimplemented SRFs in commit 69f4b9c85, our initial choice was to allow the behavior to vary from historical practice in cases where a SRF call appeared within a conditional-execution construct (currently, only CASE or COALESCE). But that was controversial to begin with, and subsequent discussion has resulted in a consensus that it's better to throw an error instead of executing the query differently from before, so long as we can provide a reasonably clear error message and a way to rewrite the query. Hence, add a parser mechanism to allow detection of such cases during parse analysis. The mechanism just requires storing, in the ParseState, a pointer to the set-returning FuncExpr or OpExpr most recently emitted by parse analysis.

Support multi-argument UNNEST(), and TABLE() syntax for multiple functions. This patch adds the ability to write TABLE( function1(), function2(), ...) as a single FROM-clause entry. The result is the concatenation of the first row from each function, followed by the second row from each function, etc; with NULLs inserted if any function produces fewer rows than others. This is believed to be a much more useful behavior than what Postgres currently does with multiple SRFs in a SELECT list. This syntax also provides a reasonable way to combine use of column definition lists with WITH ORDINALITY: put the column definition list inside TABLE(), where it's clear that it doesn't control the ordinality column as well. Also implement SQL-compliant multiple-argument UNNEST(), by turning UNNEST(a,b,c) into TABLE(unnest(a), unnest(b), unnest(c)). The SQL standard specifies TABLE() with only a single function, not multiple functions, and it seems to require an implicit UNNEST() which is not what this patch does. There may be something wrong with that reading of the spec, though, because if it's right then the spec's TABLE() is just a pointless alternative spelling of UNNEST(). After further review of that, we might choose to adopt a different syntax for what this patch does, but in any case this functionality seems clearly worthwhile.

Disallow set-returning functions inside CASE or COALESCE.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

First pass at set-returning-functions in FROM, by Joe Conway with some kibitzing from Tom Lane. Not everything works yet, and there's no documentation or regression test, but let's commit this so Joe doesn't need to cope with tracking changes in so many files ...
2002-05-12 22:10:05 +02:00
Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation. All expression nodes now have an explicit output-collation field, unless they are known to only return a noncollatable data type (such as boolean or record). Also, nodes that can invoke collation-aware functions store a separate field that is the collation value to pass to the function. This avoids confusion that arises when a function has collatable inputs and noncollatable output type, or vice versa. Also, replace the parser's on-the-fly collation assignment method with a post-pass over the completed expression tree. This allows us to use a more complex (and hopefully more nearly spec-compliant) assignment rule without paying for it in extra storage in every expression node. Fix assorted bugs in the planner's handling of collations by making collation one of the defining properties of an EquivalenceClass and by converting CollateExprs into discardable RelabelType nodes during expression preprocessing.

Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation. All expression nodes now have an explicit output-collation field, unless they are known to only return a noncollatable data type (such as boolean or record). Also, nodes that can invoke collation-aware functions store a separate field that is the collation value to pass to the function. This avoids confusion that arises when a function has collatable inputs and noncollatable output type, or vice versa. Also, replace the parser's on-the-fly collation assignment method with a post-pass over the completed expression tree. This allows us to use a more complex (and hopefully more nearly spec-compliant) assignment rule without paying for it in extra storage in every expression node. Fix assorted bugs in the planner's handling of collations by making collation one of the defining properties of an EquivalenceClass and by converting CollateExprs into discardable RelabelType nodes during expression preprocessing.

Make LATERAL implicit for functions in FROM. The SQL standard does not have general functions-in-FROM, but it does allow UNNEST() there (see the <collection derived table> production), and the semantics of that are defined to include lateral references. So spec compliance requires allowing lateral references within UNNEST() even without an explicit LATERAL keyword. Rather than making UNNEST() a special case, it seems best to extend this flexibility to any function-in-FROM. We'll still allow LATERAL to be written explicitly for clarity's sake, but it's now a noise word in this context. In theory this change could result in a change in behavior of existing queries, by allowing what had been an outer reference in a function-in-FROM to be captured by an earlier FROM-item at the same level. However, all pre-9.3 PG releases have a bug that causes them to match variable references to earlier FROM-items in preference to outer references (and then throw an error). So no previously-working query could contain the type of ambiguity that would risk a change of behavior. Per a suggestion from Andrew Gierth, though I didn't use his patch.

Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search.

Support XMLTABLE query expression 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.)

Support XMLTABLE query expression 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.)

Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review. The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

errmsg("tablesample method %s does not support REPEATABLE",
NameListToString(rts->method)),
Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review. The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references. A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Support XMLTABLE query expression 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.)

Redesign tablesample method API, and do extensive code review. The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Restructure representation of join alias variables. An explicit JOIN now has an RTE of its own, and references to its outputs now are Vars referencing the JOIN RTE, rather than CASE-expressions. This allows reverse-listing in ruleutils.c to use the correct alias easily, rather than painfully reverse-engineering the alias namespace as it used to do. Also, nested FULL JOINs work correctly, because the result of the inner joins are simple Vars that the planner can cope with. This fixes a bug reported a couple times now, notably by Tatsuo on 18-Nov-01. The alias Vars are expanded into COALESCE expressions where needed at the very end of planning, rather than during parsing. Also, beginnings of support for showing plan qualifier expressions in EXPLAIN. There are probably still cases that need work. initdb forced due to change of stored-rule representation.

Re-allow duplicate aliases within aliased JOINs. Although the SQL spec forbids duplicate table aliases, historically we've allowed queries like SELECT ... FROM tab1 x CROSS JOIN (tab2 x CROSS JOIN tab3 y) z on the grounds that the aliased join (z) hides the aliases within it, therefore there is no conflict between the two RTEs named "x". The LATERAL patch broke this, on the misguided basis that "x" could be ambiguous if tab3 were a LATERAL subquery. To avoid breaking existing queries, it's better to allow this situation and complain only if tab3 actually does contain an ambiguous reference. We need only remove the check that was throwing an error, because the column lookup code is already prepared to handle ambiguous references. Per bug #8444.

Change scoping of table and join refnames to conform to SQL92: a JOIN clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references appearing within it, according to the spec. This is the same as the preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct alias name depending on context. I'd rather not have done that, but unless we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Merge parser's p_relnamespace and p_varnamespace lists into a single list. Now that we are storing structs in these lists, the distinction between the two lists can be represented with a couple of extra flags while using only a single list. This simplifies the code and should save a little bit of palloc traffic, since the majority of RTEs are represented in both lists anyway.

Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search. This seems to eliminate the parse-time bottleneck for deeply nested JOIN structures that was exhibited by phil@vodafone.

Restructure representation of join alias variables. An explicit JOIN now has an RTE of its own, and references to its outputs now are Vars referencing the JOIN RTE, rather than CASE-expressions. This allows reverse-listing in ruleutils.c to use the correct alias easily, rather than painfully reverse-engineering the alias namespace as it used to do. Also, nested FULL JOINs work correctly, because the result of the inner joins are simple Vars that the planner can cope with. This fixes a bug reported a couple times now, notably by Tatsuo on 18-Nov-01. The alias Vars are expanded into COALESCE expressions where needed at the very end of planning, rather than during parsing. Also, beginnings of support for showing plan qualifier expressions in EXPLAIN. There are probably still cases that need work. initdb forced due to change of stored-rule representation.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Phase 2 of pgindent updates. 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.

Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same way that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch. Note: PREPARE statement still insists on exact specification of parameter types, but that could easily be relaxed now, if we wanted to do so.

Implement SQL-standard LATERAL subqueries. This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM, since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal use-cases. The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed. Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight. In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.) The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though. catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.

Merge parser's p_relnamespace and p_varnamespace lists into a single list. Now that we are storing structs in these lists, the distinction between the two lists can be represented with a couple of extra flags while using only a single list. This simplifies the code and should save a little bit of palloc traffic, since the majority of RTEs are represented in both lists anyway.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

From: David Hartwig <daybee@bellatlantic.net> I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or expressions. Note worthy items: 1. The expression or function need not be in the target list. Example: SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name); 2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only. 3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing utility functions. 3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The original data members were redundant with the new expression node. (MUST do a "make clean" now) 4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality. 5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY, and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example: SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase; *** BOOM *** --Also when not in target list SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a); *** BOOM AGAIN ***

The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Improve parser so that we can show an error cursor position for errors during parse analysis, not only errors detected in the flex/bison stages. This is per my earlier proposal. This commit includes all the basic infrastructure, but locations are only tracked and reported for errors involving column references, function calls, and operators. More could be done later but this seems like a good set to start with. I've also moved the ReportSyntaxErrorPosition logic out of psql and into libpq, which should make it available to more people --- even within psql this is an improvement because warnings weren't handled by ReportSyntaxErrorPosition.

Tweak GROUP BY so that it will still accept result-column names, but only after trying to resolve the item as an input-column name. This allows us to be compliant with the SQL92 spec for queries that fall within the spec, while still accepting the same out-of-spec queries as 6.5 did. You'll only lose if there is an output column name that is the same as an input column name, but doesn't refer to the same value. 7.0 will interpret such a GROUP BY spec differently than 6.5 did. No way around that, because 6.5 was clearly not spec compliant.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone. (I didn't risk actually removing said dead code, though.)

It originally seemed like a good idea to make them act exactly like GROUP BY and ORDER BY, right down to the SQL92-era behavior of accepting output column names or numbers. However, that was not such a great idea, for two reasons: 1. It permits circular references, as exhibited in bug #5018: the output column could be the one containing the window function itself. (We actually had a regression test case illustrating this, but nobody thought twice about how confusing that would be.) 2. It doesn't seem like a good idea for, eg, "lead(foo) OVER (ORDER BY foo)" to potentially use two completely different meanings for "foo".

Tweak findTargetlistEntry so that bare names occurring in GROUP BY clauses are sought first as local FROM columns, then as local SELECT-list aliases, and finally as outer FROM columns; the former behavior made outer FROM columns take precedence over aliases. This does not change spec conformance because SQL99 allows only the first case anyway, and it seems more useful and self-consistent. Per gripe from Dennis Bjorklund 2004-04-05.

From: David Hartwig <daybee@bellatlantic.net> I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or expressions. Note worthy items: 1. The expression or function need not be in the target list. Example: SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name); 2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only. 3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing utility functions. 3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The original data members were redundant with the new expression node. (MUST do a "make clean" now) 4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality. 5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY, and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example: SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase; *** BOOM *** --Also when not in target list SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a); *** BOOM AGAIN ***

errmsg("%s position %d is not in select list",
Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone. (I didn't risk actually removing said dead code, though.)

ParseExprKindName(exprKind), target_pos),
Extend the parser location infrastructure to include a location field in most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types. Per my proposal of a few days ago.

All INSERT-specific processing happens after the SELECT parsing is done. This eliminates many problems, e.g. INSERT ... SELECT ... GROUP BY using the wrong column labels.

From: David Hartwig <daybee@bellatlantic.net> I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or expressions. Note worthy items: 1. The expression or function need not be in the target list. Example: SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name); 2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only. 3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing utility functions. 3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The original data members were redundant with the new expression node. (MUST do a "make clean" now) 4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality. 5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY, and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example: SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase; *** BOOM *** --Also when not in target list SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a); *** BOOM AGAIN ***

Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP. This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP. This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

Per recent discussion on -hackers, we should sometimes reorder the columns of the grouping clause to avoid redundant sorts. The optimizer is not currently capable of doing this, so this patch implements a simple hack in the analysis phase (transformGroupClause): if any subset of the GROUP BY clause matches a prefix of the ORDER BY list, that prefix is moved to the front of the GROUP BY clause. This shouldn't change the semantics of the query, and allows a redundant sort to be avoided for queries like "GROUP BY a, b ORDER BY b".

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Remove vestigial resolveUnknown arguments from transformSortClause etc. There's really no situation where we don't want these unknown-to-text conversions to happen. The alternative is failure anyway, and the one caller that was passing "false" did so only because it expected the case could not arise. Might as well simplify the code.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Modify the definition of window-function PARTITION BY and ORDER BY clauses so that their elements are always taken as simple expressions over the query's input columns. It originally seemed like a good idea to make them act exactly like GROUP BY and ORDER BY, right down to the SQL92-era behavior of accepting output column names or numbers.

(We actually had a regression test case illustrating this, but nobody thought twice about how confusing that would be.) 2. It doesn't seem like a good idea for, eg, "lead(foo) OVER (ORDER BY foo)" to potentially use two completely different meanings for "foo".

Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of query sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top level of the planner. This fixes many things.

List *sortlist = NIL;
Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

partitionClause = transformGroupClause(pstate,
windef->partitionClause,
Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP. This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

Add some basic support for window frame clauses to the window-functions 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.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Support ORDER BY within aggregate function calls, at long last providing a non-kluge method for controlling the order in which values are fed to an aggregate function. At the same time eliminate the old implementation restriction that DISTINCT was only supported for single-argument aggregates. Possibly release-notable behavioral change: formerly, agg(DISTINCT x) dropped null values of x unconditionally. Now, it does so only if the agg transition function is strict; otherwise nulls are treated as DISTINCT normally would, ie, you get one copy. Andrew Gierth, reviewed by Hitoshi Harada

Allow empty target list in SELECT. This fixes a problem noted as a followup to bug #8648: if a query has a semantically-empty target list, e.g. SELECT * FROM zero_column_table, ruleutils.c will dump it as a syntactically-empty target list, which was not allowed. There doesn't seem to be any reliable way to fix this by hacking ruleutils (note in particular that the originally zero-column table might since have had columns added to it); and even if we had such a fix, it would do nothing for existing dump files that might contain bad syntax. The best bet seems to be to relax the syntactic restriction. Also, add parse-analysis errors for SELECT DISTINCT with no columns (after *-expansion) and RETURNING with no columns. These cases previously produced unexpected behavior because the parsed Query looked like it had no DISTINCT or RETURNING clause, respectively. If anyone ever offers a plausible use-case for this, we could work a bit harder on making the situation distinguishable. Arguably this is a bug fix that should be back-patched, but I'm worried that there may be client apps or PLs that expect "SELECT ;" to throw a syntax error. The issue doesn't seem important enough to risk changing behavior in minor releases.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Modify the definition of window-function PARTITION BY and ORDER BY clauses so that their elements are always taken as simple expressions over the query's input columns. It originally seemed like a good idea to make them act exactly like GROUP BY and ORDER BY, right down to the SQL92-era behavior of accepting output column names or numbers. However, that was not such a great idea, for two reasons: 1. It permits circular references, as exhibited in bug #5018: the output column could be the one containing the window function itself. (We actually had a regression test case illustrating this, but nobody thought twice about how confusing that would be.) 2. It doesn't seem like a good idea for, eg, "lead(foo) OVER (ORDER BY foo)" to potentially use two completely different meanings for "foo". Accordingly, narrow down the behavior of window clauses to use only the SQL99-compliant interpretation that the expressions are simple expressions.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit. Also, rewrite checking of aggregate arguments so that it requires only one traversal of the arguments, rather than up to three as before. In passing, clean up some more comments left over from add_missing_from support, and annotate some tests that I think are dead code now that that's gone. (I didn't risk actually removing said dead code, though.)

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Fix parser so that we don't modify the user-written ORDER BY list in order to represent DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This gets rid of a longstanding annoyance that a view or rule using SELECT DISTINCT will be dumped out with an overspecified ORDER BY list, and is one small step along the way to decoupling DISTINCT and ORDER BY enough so that hash-based implementation of DISTINCT will be possible. In passing, improve transformDistinctClause so that it doesn't reject duplicate DISTINCT ON items, as was reported by Steve Midgley a couple weeks ago.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Allow empty target list in SELECT. This fixes a problem noted as a followup to bug #8648: if a query has a semantically-empty target list, e.g. SELECT * FROM zero_column_table, ruleutils.c will dump it as a syntactically-empty target list, which was not allowed. There doesn't seem to be any reliable way to fix this by hacking ruleutils (note in particular that the originally zero-column table might since have had columns added to it); and even if we had such a fix, it would do nothing for existing dump files that might contain bad syntax. The best bet seems to be to relax the syntactic restriction. Also, add parse-analysis errors for SELECT DISTINCT with no columns (after *-expansion) and RETURNING with no columns. These cases previously produced unexpected behavior because the parsed Query looked like it had no DISTINCT or RETURNING clause, respectively. If anyone ever offers a plausible use-case for this, we could work a bit harder on making the situation distinguishable. Arguably this is a bug fix that should be back-patched, but I'm worried that there may be client apps or PLs that expect "SELECT ;" to throw a syntax error. The issue doesn't seem important enough to risk changing behavior in minor releases.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

The newly added ON CONFLICT clause allows to specify an alternative to raising a unique or exclusion constraint violation error when inserting. ON CONFLICT refers to constraints that can either be specified using a inference clause (by specifying the columns of a unique constraint) or by naming a unique or exclusion constraint. DO NOTHING avoids the constraint violation, without touching the pre-existing row. DO UPDATE SET ... [WHERE ...] updates the pre-existing tuple, and has access to both the tuple proposed for insertion and the existing tuple; the optional WHERE clause can be used to prevent an update from being executed. The UPDATE SET and WHERE clauses have access to the tuple proposed for insertion using the "magic" EXCLUDED alias, and to the pre-existing tuple using the table name or its alias. This feature is often referred to as upsert. This is implemented using a new infrastructure called "speculative insertion". It is an optimistic variant of regular insertion that first does a pre-check for existing tuples and then attempts an insert. If a violating tuple was inserted concurrently, the speculatively inserted tuple is deleted and a new attempt is made. If the pre-check finds a matching tuple the alternative DO NOTHING or DO UPDATE action is taken. If the insertion succeeds without detecting a conflict, the tuple is deemed inserted. To handle the possible ambiguity between the excluded alias and a table named excluded, and for convenience with long relation names, INSERT INTO now can alias its target table.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of query sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes on functions, backwards. It's just so cool... CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES. You will need to initdb.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Support ordered-set (WITHIN GROUP) aggregates. This patch introduces generic support for ordered-set and hypothetical-set aggregate functions, as well as implementations of the instances defined in SQL:2008 (percentile_cont(), percentile_disc(), rank(), dense_rank(), percent_rank(), cume_dist()). We also added mode() though it is not in the spec, as well as versions of percentile_cont() and percentile_disc() that can compute multiple percentile values in one pass over the data. Unlike the original submission, this patch puts full control of the sorting process in the hands of the aggregate's support functions. To allow the support functions to find out how they're supposed to sort, a new API function AggGetAggref() is added to nodeAgg.c. This allows retrieval of the aggregate call's Aggref node, which may have other uses beyond the immediate need. There is also support for ordered-set aggregates to install cleanup callback functions, so that they can be sure that infrastructure such as tuplesort objects gets cleaned up. In passing, make some fixes in the recently-added support for variadic aggregates, and make some editorial adjustments in the recent FILTER additions for aggregates. Also, simplify use of IsBinaryCoercible() by allowing it to succeed whenever the target type is ANY or ANYELEMENT. It was inconsistent that it dealt with other polymorphic target types but not these.

Provide hashing support for arrays. The core of this patch is hash_array() and associated typcache infrastructure, which works just about exactly like the existing support for array comparison. In addition I did some work to ensure that the planner won't think that an array type is hashable unless its element type is hashable, and similarly for sorting. This includes adding a datatype parameter to op_hashjoinable and op_mergejoinable, and adding an explicit "hashable" flag to SortGroupClause. The lack of a cross-check on the element type was a pre-existing bug in mergejoin support --- but it didn't matter so much before, because if you couldn't sort the element type there wasn't any good alternative to failing anyhow. Now that we have the alternative of hashing the array type, there are cases where we can avoid a failure by being picky at the planner stage, so it's time to be picky. The issue of exactly how to combine the per-element hash values to produce an array hash is still open for discussion, but the rest of this is pretty solid, so I'll commit it as-is.

There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types.

/*
Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

Phase 3 of pgindent updates. Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. 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.

Provide hashing support for arrays. The core of this patch is hash_array() and associated typcache infrastructure, which works just about exactly like the existing support for array comparison. In addition I did some work to ensure that the planner won't think that an array type is hashable unless its element type is hashable, and similarly for sorting. This includes adding a datatype parameter to op_hashjoinable and op_mergejoinable, and adding an explicit "hashable" flag to SortGroupClause. The lack of a cross-check on the element type was a pre-existing bug in mergejoin support --- but it didn't matter so much before, because if you couldn't sort the element type there wasn't any good alternative to failing anyhow. Now that we have the alternative of hashing the array type, there are cases where we can avoid a failure by being picky at the planner stage, so it's time to be picky. The issue of exactly how to combine the per-element hash values to produce an array hash is still open for discussion, but the rest of this is pretty solid, so I'll commit it as-is.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

I took the opportunity to push selection of the grouping operators for set operations into the parser where it belongs. Otherwise this is just a small exercise in making prepunion.c consider both alternatives. As with the recent DISTINCT patch, this means we can UNION on datatypes that can hash but not sort, and it means that UNION without ORDER BY is no longer certain to produce sorted output.

This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types.

Now that we have the alternative of hashing the array type, there are cases where we can avoid a failure by being picky at the planner stage, so it's time to be picky.

Phase 2 of pgindent updates. 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.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Remove optimization whereby parser would make only one sort-list entry when two equal() targetlist items were to be added to an ORDER BY or DISTINCT list. Although indeed this would make sorting fractionally faster by sometimes saving a comparison, it confuses the heck out of later stages of processing, because it makes it look like the user wrote DISTINCT ON rather than DISTINCT. Bug reported by joe@piscitella.com.

Support ORDER BY ... NULLS FIRST/LAST, and add ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LAST per-column options for btree indexes. The planner's support for this is still pretty rudimentary; it does not yet know how to plan mergejoins with nondefault ordering options. The documentation is pretty rudimentary, too. I'll work on improving that stuff later. Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.

* If sortop is not InvalidOid, also test for a match to the sortop.
*
* It is not an oversight that this function ignores the nulls_first flag.
* We check sortop when determining if an ORDER BY item is redundant with
* earlier ORDER BY items, because it's conceivable that "ORDER BY
* foo USING <, foo USING <<<" is not redundant, if <<< distinguishes
* values that < considers equal. We need not check nulls_first
* however, because a lower-order column with the same sortop but
* opposite nulls direction is redundant. Also, we can consider
* ORDER BY foo ASC, foo DESC redundant, so check for a commutator match.
Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of query sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes on functions, backwards.

Rearrange the querytree representation of ORDER BY/GROUP BY/DISTINCT items as per my recent proposal: 1. Fold SortClause and GroupClause into a single node type SortGroupClause. We were already relying on them to be struct-equivalent, so using two node tags wasn't accomplishing much except to get in the way of comparing items with equal(). 2. Add an "eqop" field to SortGroupClause to carry the associated equality operator. This is cheap for the parser to get at the same time it's looking up the sort operator, and storing it eliminates the need for repeated not-so-cheap lookups during planning. In future this will also let us represent GROUP/DISTINCT operations on datatypes that have hash opclasses but no btree opclasses (ie, they have equality but no natural sort order). The previous representation simply didn't work for that, since its only indicator of comparison semantics was a sort operator. 3. Add a hasDistinctOn boolean to struct Query to explicitly record whether the distinctClause came from DISTINCT or DISTINCT ON. This allows removing some complicated and not 100% bulletproof code that attempted to figure that out from the distinctClause alone. This patch doesn't in itself create any new capability, but it's necessary infrastructure for future attempts to use hash-based grouping for DISTINCT and UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT.

* Works for both ordering and grouping lists (sortop would normally be
* InvalidOid when considering grouping). Note that the main reason we need
* this routine (and not just a quick test for nonzeroness of ressortgroupref)
* is that a TLE might be in only one of the lists.

Adjust subquery qual pushdown rules to be more forgiving: if a qual refers to a non-DISTINCT output column of a DISTINCT ON subquery, or if it refers to a function-returning-set, we cannot push it down. But the old implementation refused to push down *any* quals if the subquery had any such 'dangerous' outputs. Now we just look at the output columns actually referenced by each qual expression. More code than before, but probably no slower since we don't make unnecessary checks.

Merge Resdom nodes into TargetEntry nodes to simplify code and save a few palloc's. I also chose to eliminate the restype and restypmod fields entirely, since they are redundant with information stored in the node's contained expression; re-examining the expression at need seems simpler and more reliable than trying to keep restype/restypmod up to date. initdb forced due to change in contents of stored rules.

Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend. In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

Centralize the logic for detecting misplaced aggregates, window funcs, etc. Formerly we relied on checking after-the-fact to see if an expression contained aggregates, window functions, or sub-selects when it shouldn't. This is grotty, easily forgotten (indeed, we had forgotten to teach DefineIndex about rejecting window functions), and none too efficient since it requires extra traversals of the parse tree. To improve matters, define an enum type that classifies all SQL sub-expressions, store it in ParseState to show what kind of expression we are currently parsing, and make transformAggregateCall, transformWindowFuncCall, and transformSubLink check the expression type and throw error if the type indicates the construct is disallowed. This allows removal of a large number of ad-hoc checks scattered around the code base. The enum type is sufficiently fine-grained that we can still produce error messages of at least the same specificity as before. Bringing these error checks together revealed that we'd been none too consistent about phrasing of the error messages, so standardize the wording a bit.
