/* defaults for costsize.c's Cost parameters */
New cost model for planning, incorporating a penalty for random page accesses versus sequential accesses, a (very crude) estimate of the effects of caching on random page accesses, and cost to evaluate WHERE- clause expressions. Export critical parameters for this model as SET variables. Also, create SET variables for the planner's enable flags (enable_seqscan, enable_indexscan, etc) so that these can be controlled more conveniently than via PGOPTIONS. Planner now estimates both startup cost (cost before retrieving first tuple) and total cost of each path, so it can optimize queries with LIMIT on a reasonable basis by interpolating between these costs. Same facility is a win for EXISTS(...) subqueries and some other cases. Redesign pathkey representation to achieve a major speedup in planning (I saw as much as 5X on a 10-way join); also minor changes in planner to reduce memory consumption by recycling discarded Path nodes and not constructing unnecessary lists. Minor cleanups to display more-plausible costs in some cases in EXPLAIN output. Initdb forced by change in interface to index cost estimation functions.

Add a GUC parameter seq_page_cost, and use that everywhere we formerly assumed that a sequential page fetch has cost 1.0. This patch doesn't in itself change the system's behavior at all, but it opens the door to people adopting other units of measurement for EXPLAIN costs. Also, if we ever decide it's worth inventing per-tablespace access cost settings, this change provides a workable intellectual framework for that.

Increase the default value of effective_cache_size to 4GB. Per discussion, the old value of 128MB is ridiculously small on modern machines; in fact, it's not even any larger than the default value of shared_buffers, which it certainly should be. Increase to 4GB, which is unlikely to be any worse than the old default for anyone, and should be noticeably better for most. Eventually we might have an autotuning scheme for this setting, but the recent attempt crashed and burned, so for now just do this.

#define DEFAULT_EFFECTIVE_CACHE_SIZE 524288 /* measured in pages */
Revert "Auto-tune effective_cache size to be 4x shared buffers" This reverts commit ee1e5662d8d8330726eaef7d3110cb7add24d058, as well as a remarkably large number of followup commits, which were mostly concerned with the fact that the implementation didn't work terribly well. It still doesn't: we probably need some rather basic work in the GUC infrastructure if we want to fully support GUCs whose default varies depending on the value of another GUC. Meanwhile, it also emerged that there wasn't really consensus in favor of the definition the patch tried to implement (ie, effective_cache_size should default to 4 times shared_buffers). So whack it all back to where it was. In a followup commit, I'll do what was recently agreed to, which is to simply change the default to a higher value.

Support index-only scans using the visibility map to avoid heap fetches. When a btree index contains all columns required by the query, and the visibility map shows that all tuples on a target heap page are visible-to-all, we don't need to fetch that heap page. This patch depends on the previous patches that made the visibility map reliable. There's a fair amount left to do here, notably trying to figure out a less chintzy way of estimating the cost of an index-only scan, but the core functionality seems ready to commit.

Make the planner estimate costs for nestloop inner indexscans on the basis that the Mackert-Lohmann formula applies across all the repetitions of the nestloop, not just each scan independently. We use the M-L formula to estimate the number of pages fetched from the index as well as from the table; that isn't what it was designed for, but it seems reasonably applicable anyway. This makes large numbers of repetitions look much cheaper than before, which accords with many reports we've received of overestimation of the cost of a nestloop. Also, change the index access cost model to charge random_page_cost per index leaf page touched, while explicitly not counting anything for access to metapage or upper tree pages. This may all need tweaking after we get some field experience, but in simple tests it seems to be giving saner results than before. The main thing is to get the infrastructure in place to let cost_index() and amcostestimate functions take repeated scans into account at all. Per my recent proposal. Note: this patch changes pg_proc.h, but I did not force initdb because the changes are basically cosmetic --- the system does not look into pg_proc to decide how to call an index amcostestimate function, and there's no way to call such a function from SQL at all.

Revise parameterized-path mechanism to fix assorted issues. This patch adjusts the treatment of parameterized paths so that all paths with the same parameterization (same set of required outer rels) for the same relation will have the same rowcount estimate. We cache the rowcount estimates to ensure that property, and hopefully save a few cycles too. Doing this makes it practical for add_path_precheck to operate without a rowcount estimate: it need only assume that paths with different parameterizations never dominate each other, which is close enough to true anyway for coarse filtering, because normally a more-parameterized path should yield fewer rows thanks to having more join clauses to apply. In add_path, we do the full nine yards of comparing rowcount estimates along with everything else, so that we can discard parameterized paths that don't actually have an advantage. This fixes some issues I'd found with add_path rejecting parameterized paths on the grounds that they were more expensive than not-parameterized ones, even though they yielded many fewer rows and hence would be cheaper once subsequent joining was considered. To make the same-rowcounts assumption valid, we have to require that any parameterized path enforce *all* join clauses that could be obtained from the particular set of outer rels, even if not all of them are useful for indexing. This is required at both base scans and joins. It's a good thing anyway since the net impact is that join quals are checked at the lowest practical level in the join tree. Hence, discard the original rather ad-hoc mechanism for choosing parameterization joinquals, and build a better one that has a more principled rule for when clauses can be moved. The original rule was actually buggy anyway for lack of knowledge about which relations are part of an outer join's outer side; getting this right requires adding an outer_relids field to RestrictInfo.

Rethink representation of index clauses' mapping to index columns. In commit e2c2c2e8b1df7dfdb01e7e6f6191a569ce3c3195 I made use of nested list structures to show which clauses went with which index columns, but on reflection that's a data structure that only an old-line Lisp hacker could love. Worse, it adds unnecessary complication to the many places that don't much care which clauses go with which index columns. Revert to the previous arrangement of flat lists of clauses, and instead add a parallel integer list of column numbers. The places that care about the pairing can chase both lists with forboth(), while the places that don't care just examine one list the same as before. The only real downside to this is that there are now two more lists that need to be passed to amcostestimate functions in case they care about column matching (which btcostestimate does, so not passing the info is not an option). Rather than deal with 11-argument amcostestimate functions, pass just the IndexPath and expect the functions to extract fields from it. That gets us down to 7 arguments which is better than 11, and it seems more future-proof against likely additions to the information we keep about an index path.

Use parameterized paths to generate inner indexscans more flexibly. This patch fixes the planner so that it can generate nestloop-with- inner-indexscan plans even with one or more levels of joining between the indexscan and the nestloop join that is supplying the parameter. The executor was fixed to handle such cases some time ago, but the planner was not ready. This should improve our plans in many situations where join ordering restrictions formerly forced complete table scans. There is probably a fair amount of tuning work yet to be done, because of various heuristics that have been added to limit the number of parameterized paths considered. However, we are not going to find out what needs to be adjusted until the code gets some real-world use, so it's time to get it in there where it can be tested easily. Note API change for index AM amcostestimate functions. I'm not aware of any non-core index AMs, but if there are any, they will need minor adjustments.

Fix up planner infrastructure to support LATERAL properly. This patch takes care of a number of problems having to do with failure to choose valid join orders and incorrect handling of lateral references pulled up from subqueries. Notable changes: * Add a LateralJoinInfo data structure similar to SpecialJoinInfo, to represent join ordering constraints created by lateral references. (I first considered extending the SpecialJoinInfo structure, but the semantics are different enough that a separate data structure seems better.) Extend join_is_legal() and related functions to prevent trying to form unworkable joins, and to ensure that we will consider joins that satisfy lateral references even if the joins would be clauseless. * Fill in the infrastructure needed for the last few types of relation scan paths to support parameterization. We'd have wanted this eventually anyway, but it is necessary now because a relation that gets pulled up out of a UNION ALL subquery may acquire a reltargetlist containing lateral references, meaning that its paths *have* to be parameterized whether or not we have any code that can push join quals down into the scan. * Compute data about lateral references early in query_planner(), and save in RelOptInfo nodes, to avoid repetitive calculations later. * Assorted corner-case bug fixes. There's probably still some bugs left, but this is a lot closer to being real than it was before.

This patch adjusts the treatment of parameterized paths so that all paths with the same parameterization (same set of required outer rels) for the same relation will have the same rowcount estimate. We cache the rowcount estimates to ensure that property, and hopefully save a few cycles too. Doing this makes it practical for add_path_precheck to operate without a rowcount estimate: it need only assume that paths with different parameterizations never dominate each other, which is close enough to true anyway for coarse filtering, because normally a more-parameterized path should yield fewer rows thanks to having more join clauses to apply. In add_path, we do the full nine yards of comparing rowcount estimates along with everything else, so that we can discard parameterized paths that don't actually have an advantage. This fixes some issues I'd found with add_path rejecting parameterized paths on the grounds that they were more expensive than not-parameterized ones, even though they yielded many fewer rows and hence would be cheaper once subsequent joining was considered. To make the same-rowcounts assumption valid, we have to require that any parameterized path enforce *all* join clauses that could be obtained from the particular set of outer rels, even if not all of them are useful for indexing. This is required at both base scans and joins. It's a good thing anyway since the net impact is that join quals are checked at the lowest practical level in the join tree. Hence, discard the original rather ad-hoc mechanism for choosing parameterization joinquals, and build a better one that has a more principled rule for when clauses can be moved. The original rule was actually buggy anyway for lack of knowledge about which relations are part of an outer join's outer side; getting this right requires adding an outer_relids field to RestrictInfo.

extern void cost_functionscan(Path *path, PlannerInfo *root,
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.

More fixes for planner's handling of LATERAL. Re-allow subquery pullup for LATERAL subqueries, except when the subquery is below an outer join and contains lateral references to relations outside that outer join. If we pull up in such a case, we risk introducing lateral cross-references into outer joins' ON quals, which is something the code is entirely unprepared to cope with right now; and I'm not sure it'll ever be worth coping with. Support lateral refs in VALUES (this seems to be the only additional path type that needs such support as a consequence of re-allowing subquery pullup). Put in a slightly hacky fix for joinpath.c's refusal to consider parameterized join paths even when there cannot be any unparameterized ones. This was causing "could not devise a query plan for the given query" failures in queries involving more than two FROM items. Put in an even more hacky fix for distribute_qual_to_rels() being unhappy with join quals that contain references to rels outside their syntactic scope; which is to say, disable that test altogether. Need to think about how to preserve some sort of debugging cross-check here, while not expending more cycles than befits a debugging cross-check.

RelOptInfo *baserel, ParamPathInfo *param_info);
Fix up planner infrastructure to support LATERAL properly. This patch takes care of a number of problems having to do with failure to choose valid join orders and incorrect handling of lateral references pulled up from subqueries. Notable changes: * Add a LateralJoinInfo data structure similar to SpecialJoinInfo, to represent join ordering constraints created by lateral references. (I first considered extending the SpecialJoinInfo structure, but the semantics are different enough that a separate data structure seems better.) Extend join_is_legal() and related functions to prevent trying to form unworkable joins, and to ensure that we will consider joins that satisfy lateral references even if the joins would be clauseless. * Fill in the infrastructure needed for the last few types of relation scan paths to support parameterization. We'd have wanted this eventually anyway, but it is necessary now because a relation that gets pulled up out of a UNION ALL subquery may acquire a reltargetlist containing lateral references, meaning that its paths *have* to be parameterized whether or not we have any code that can push join quals down into the scan. * Compute data about lateral references early in query_planner(), and save in RelOptInfo nodes, to avoid repetitive calculations later. * Assorted corner-case bug fixes. There's probably still some bugs left, but this is a lot closer to being real than it was before.

Rewrite the planner's handling of materialized plan types so that there is an explicit model of rescan costs being different from first-time costs. The costing of Material nodes in particular now has some visible relationship to the actual runtime behavior, where before it was essentially fantasy. This also fixes up a couple of places where different materialized plan types were treated differently for no very good reason (probably just oversights). A couple of the regression tests are affected, because the planner now chooses to put the other relation on the inside of a nestloop-with-materialize. So far as I can see both changes are sane, and the planner is now more consistently following the expectation that it should prefer to materialize the smaller of two relations.

Use parameterized paths to generate inner indexscans more flexibly. This patch fixes the planner so that it can generate nestloop-with- inner-indexscan plans even with one or more levels of joining between the indexscan and the nestloop join that is supplying the parameter. The executor was fixed to handle such cases some time ago, but the planner was not ready. This should improve our plans in many situations where join ordering restrictions formerly forced complete table scans. There is probably a fair amount of tuning work yet to be done, because of various heuristics that have been added to limit the number of parameterized paths considered. However, we are not going to find out what needs to be adjusted until the code gets some real-world use, so it's time to get it in there where it can be tested easily. Note API change for index AM amcostestimate functions. I'm not aware of any non-core index AMs, but if there are any, they will need minor adjustments.

Arrange to convert EXISTS subqueries that are equivalent to hashable IN subqueries into the same thing you'd have gotten from IN (except always with unknownEqFalse = true, so as to get the proper semantics for an EXISTS). I believe this fixes the last case within CVS HEAD in which an EXISTS could give worse performance than an equivalent IN subquery. The tricky part of this is that if the upper query probes the EXISTS for only a few rows, the hashing implementation can actually be worse than the default, and therefore we need to make a cost-based decision about which way to use. But at the time when the planner generates plans for subqueries, it doesn't really know how many times the subquery will be executed. The least invasive solution seems to be to generate both plans and postpone the choice until execution. Therefore, in a query that has been optimized this way, EXPLAIN will show two subplans for the EXISTS, of which only one will actually get executed. There is a lot more that could be done based on this infrastructure: in particular it's interesting to consider switching to the hash plan if we start out using the non-hashed plan but find a lot more upper rows going by than we expected. I have therefore left some minor inefficiencies in place, such as initializing both subplans even though we will currently only use one.

Turn the rangetable used by the executor into a flat list, and avoid storing useless substructure for its RangeTblEntry nodes. (I chose to keep using the same struct node type and just zero out the link fields for unneeded info, rather than making a separate ExecRangeTblEntry type --- it seemed too fragile to have two different rangetable representations.) Along the way, put subplans into a list in the toplevel PlannedStmt node, and have SubPlan nodes refer to them by list index instead of direct pointers. Vadim wanted to do that years ago, but I never understood what he was on about until now. It makes things a *whole* lot more robust, because we can stop worrying about duplicate processing of subplans during expression tree traversals. That's been a constant source of bugs, and it's finally gone. There are some consequent simplifications yet to be made, like not using a separate EState for subplans in the executor, but I'll tackle that later.

Implement SEMI and ANTI joins in the planner and executor. (Semijoins replace the old JOIN_IN code, but antijoins are new functionality.) Teach the planner to convert appropriate EXISTS and NOT EXISTS subqueries into semi and anti joins respectively. Also, LEFT JOINs with suitable upper-level IS NULL filters are recognized as being anti joins. Unify the InClauseInfo and OuterJoinInfo infrastructure into "SpecialJoinInfo". With that change, it becomes possible to associate a SpecialJoinInfo with every join attempt, which permits some cleanup of join selectivity estimation. That needs to be taken much further than this patch does, but the next step is to change the API for oprjoin selectivity functions, which seems like material for a separate patch. So for the moment the output size estimates for semi and especially anti joins are quite bogus.

Rearrange planner to save the whole PlannerInfo (subroot) for a subquery. Formerly, set_subquery_pathlist and other creators of plans for subqueries saved only the rangetable and rowMarks lists from the lower-level PlannerInfo. But there's no reason not to remember the whole PlannerInfo, and indeed this turns out to simplify matters in a number of places. The immediate reason for doing this was so that the subroot will still be accessible when we're trying to extract column statistics out of an already-planned subquery. But now that I've done it, it seems like a good code-beautification effort in its own right. I also chose to get rid of the transient subrtable and subrowmark fields in SubqueryScan nodes, in favor of having setrefs.c look up the subquery's RelOptInfo. That required changing all the APIs in setrefs.c to pass PlannerInfo not PlannerGlobal, which was a large but quite mechanical transformation. One side-effect not foreseen at the beginning is that this finally broke inheritance_planner's assumption that replanning the same subquery RTE N times would necessarily give interchangeable results each time. That assumption was always pretty risky, but now we really have to make a separate RTE for each instance so that there's a place to carry the separate subroots.

Another round of planner/optimizer work. This is just restructuring and code cleanup; no major improvements yet. However, EXPLAIN does produce more intuitive outputs for nested loops with indexscans now...

Remove planner's private fields from Query struct, and put them into a new PlannerInfo struct, which is passed around instead of the bare Query in all the planning code. This commit is essentially just a code-beautification exercise, but it does open the door to making larger changes to the planner data structures without having to muck with the widely-known Query struct.

Implement SEMI and ANTI joins in the planner and executor. (Semijoins replace the old JOIN_IN code, but antijoins are new functionality.) Teach the planner to convert appropriate EXISTS and NOT EXISTS subqueries into semi and anti joins respectively. Also, LEFT JOINs with suitable upper-level IS NULL filters are recognized as being anti joins. Unify the InClauseInfo and OuterJoinInfo infrastructure into "SpecialJoinInfo". With that change, it becomes possible to associate a SpecialJoinInfo with every join attempt, which permits some cleanup of join selectivity estimation. That needs to be taken much further than this patch does, but the next step is to change the API for oprjoin selectivity functions, which seems like material for a separate patch. So for the moment the output size estimates for semi and especially anti joins are quite bogus.

Another pgindent run. Fixes enum indenting, and improves #endif spacing. Also adds space for one-line comments.
