tableam: Add and use scan APIs. Too allow table accesses to be not directly dependent on heap, several new abstractions are needed. Specifically: 1) Heap scans need to be generalized into table scans. Do this by introducing TableScanDesc, which will be the "base class" for individual AMs. This contains the AM independent fields from HeapScanDesc. The previous heap_{beginscan,rescan,endscan} et al. have been replaced with a table_ version. There's no direct replacement for heap_getnext(), as that returned a HeapTuple, which is undesirable for a other AMs. Instead there's table_scan_getnextslot(). But note that heap_getnext() lives on, it's still used widely to access catalog tables. This is achieved by new scan_begin, scan_end, scan_rescan, scan_getnextslot callbacks. 2) The portion of parallel scans that's shared between backends need to be able to do so without the user doing per-AM work. To achieve that new parallelscan_{estimate, initialize, reinitialize} callbacks are introduced, which operate on a new ParallelTableScanDesc, which again can be subclassed by AMs. As it is likely that several AMs are going to be block oriented, block oriented callbacks that can be shared between such AMs are provided and used by heap. table_block_parallelscan_{estimate, intiialize, reinitialize} as callbacks, and table_block_parallelscan_{nextpage, init} for use in AMs. These operate on a ParallelBlockTableScanDesc. 3) Index scans need to be able to access tables to return a tuple, and there needs to be state across individual accesses to the heap to store state like buffers. That's now handled by introducing a sort-of-scan IndexFetchTable, which again is intended to be subclassed by individual AMs (for heap IndexFetchHeap). The relevant callbacks for an AM are index_fetch_{end, begin, reset} to create the necessary state, and index_fetch_tuple to retrieve an indexed tuple. Note that index_fetch_tuple implementations need to be smarter than just blindly fetching the tuples for AMs that have optimizations similar to heap's HOT - the currently alive tuple in the update chain needs to be fetched if appropriate. Similar to table_scan_getnextslot(), it's undesirable to continue to return HeapTuples. Thus index_fetch_heap (might want to rename that later) now accepts a slot as an argument. Core code doesn't have a lot of call sites performing index scans without going through the systable_* API (in contrast to loads of heap_getnext calls and working directly with HeapTuples). Index scans now store the result of a search in IndexScanDesc->xs_heaptid, rather than xs_ctup->t_self. As the target is not generally a HeapTuple anymore that seems cleaner. To be able to sensible adapt code to use the above, two further callbacks have been introduced: a) slot_callbacks returns a TupleTableSlotOps* suitable for creating slots capable of holding a tuple of the AMs type. table_slot_callbacks() and table_slot_create() are based upon that, but have additional logic to deal with views, foreign tables, etc. While this change could have been done separately, nearly all the call sites that needed to be adapted for the rest of this commit also would have been needed to be adapted for table_slot_callbacks(), making separation not worthwhile. b) tuple_satisfies_snapshot checks whether the tuple in a slot is currently visible according to a snapshot. That's required as a few places now don't have a buffer + HeapTuple around, but a slot (which in heap's case internally has that information). Additionally a few infrastructure changes were needed: I) SysScanDesc, as used by systable_{beginscan, getnext} et al. now internally uses a slot to keep track of tuples. While systable_getnext() still returns HeapTuples, and will so for the foreseeable future, the index API (see 1) above) now only deals with slots. The remainder, and largest part, of this commit is then adjusting all scans in postgres to use the new APIs.

Try to ensure that stats collector's receive buffer size is at least 100KB. Since commit 4e37b3e15, buildfarm member frogmouth has been failing occasionally with symptoms indicating that some expected stats data is getting dropped. The reason that that commit changed the behavior seems probably to be that more data is getting shoved at the collector in a short span of time. In current sources, the stats test's first session sends about 9KB of data while exiting, which is probably the same as what was sent just before wait_for_stats() in the previous test design. But now, the test's second session is starting up concurrently, and it sends another 2KB (presumably reflecting its initial catalog accesses). Since frogmouth is running on Windows XP, which reputedly has a default socket receive buffer size of only 8KB, it is not very surprising if this has put us over the threshold where the receive buffer can overflow and drop messages. The same mechanism could very easily explain the intermittent stats test failures we've been seeing for years, since background processes such as the bgwriter will sometimes send data concurrently with all this, and could thus cause occasional buffer overflows. Hence, insert some code into pgstat_init() to increase the stats socket's receive buffer size to 100KB if it's less than that. (On failure, emit a LOG message, but keep going.) Modern systems seem to have default sizes in the range of 100KB-250KB, but older platforms don't. I couldn't find any platforms that wouldn't accept 100KB, so in theory this won't cause any portability problems. If this is successful at reducing the buildfarm failure rate in HEAD, we should back-patch it, because it's certain that similar buffer overflows happen in the field on platforms with small buffer sizes. Going forward, there might be an argument for trying to increase the buffer size even more, but let's take a baby step first. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/22173.1494788088@sss.pgh.pa.us

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Avoid useless closely-spaced writes of statistics files. The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec. Backends will not make requests at all if they see the existing data is newer than that, and the stats collector is supposed to disregard requests having a cutoff_time older than its most recently written data, so that close-together requests don't result in multiple writes. But the latter part of that got broken in commit 187492b6c2e8cafc, so that if two backends concurrently decide the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice. (In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case the window in which it might work would be much shorter than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.) To fix, improve pgstat_recv_inquiry so that it checks whether the cutoff time is too old, and doesn't add a request to the queue if so. This means that we do not need DBWriteRequest.request_time, because the decision is taken before making a queue entry. And that means that we don't really need the DBWriteRequest data structure at all; an OID list of database OIDs will serve and allow removal of some rather verbose and crufty code. In passing, improve the comments in this area, which have been rather neglected. Also change backend_read_statsfile so that it's not silently relying on MyDatabaseId to have some particular value in the autovacuum launcher process. It accidentally worked as desired because MyDatabaseId is zero in that process; but that does not seem like a dependency we want, especially with no documentation about it. Although this patch is mine, it turns out I'd rediscovered a known bug, for which Tomas Vondra had already submitted a patch that's functionally equivalent to the non-cosmetic aspects of this patch. Thanks to Tomas for reviewing this version. Back-patch to 9.3 where the bug was introduced. Prior-Discussion: <1718942738eb65c8407fcd864883f4c8@fuzzy.cz> Patch: <4625.1464202586@sss.pgh.pa.us>

Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility. Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

Try to ensure that stats collector's receive buffer size is at least 100KB. Since commit 4e37b3e15, buildfarm member frogmouth has been failing occasionally with symptoms indicating that some expected stats data is getting dropped. The reason that that commit changed the behavior seems probably to be that more data is getting shoved at the collector in a short span of time. In current sources, the stats test's first session sends about 9KB of data while exiting, which is probably the same as what was sent just before wait_for_stats() in the previous test design. But now, the test's second session is starting up concurrently, and it sends another 2KB (presumably reflecting its initial catalog accesses). Since frogmouth is running on Windows XP, which reputedly has a default socket receive buffer size of only 8KB, it is not very surprising if this has put us over the threshold where the receive buffer can overflow and drop messages. The same mechanism could very easily explain the intermittent stats test failures we've been seeing for years, since background processes such as the bgwriter will sometimes send data concurrently with all this, and could thus cause occasional buffer overflows. Hence, insert some code into pgstat_init() to increase the stats socket's receive buffer size to 100KB if it's less than that. (On failure, emit a LOG message, but keep going.) Modern systems seem to have default sizes in the range of 100KB-250KB, but older platforms don't. I couldn't find any platforms that wouldn't accept 100KB, so in theory this won't cause any portability problems. If this is successful at reducing the buildfarm failure rate in HEAD, we should back-patch it, because it's certain that similar buffer overflows happen in the field on platforms with small buffer sizes. Going forward, there might be an argument for trying to increase the buffer size even more, but let's take a baby step first. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/22173.1494788088@sss.pgh.pa.us

Account explicitly for long-lived FDs that are allocated outside fd.c. The comments in fd.c have long claimed that all file allocations should go through that module, but in reality that's not always practical. fd.c doesn't supply APIs for invoking some FD-producing syscalls like pipe() or epoll_create(); and the APIs it does supply for non-virtual FDs are mostly insistent on releasing those FDs at transaction end; and in some cases the actual open() call is in code that can't be made to use fd.c, such as libpq. This has led to a situation where, in a modern server, there are likely to be seven or so long-lived FDs per backend process that are not known to fd.c. Since NUM_RESERVED_FDS is only 10, that meant we had *very* few spare FDs if max_files_per_process is >= the system ulimit and fd.c had opened all the files it thought it safely could. The contrib/postgres_fdw regression test, in particular, could easily be made to fall over by running it under a restrictive ulimit. To improve matters, invent functions Acquire/Reserve/ReleaseExternalFD that allow outside callers to tell fd.c that they have or want to allocate a FD that's not directly managed by fd.c. Add calls to track all the fixed FDs in a standard backend session, so that we are honestly guaranteeing that NUM_RESERVED_FDS FDs remain unused below the EMFILE limit in a backend's idle state. The coding rules for these functions say that there's no need to call them in code that just allocates one FD over a fairly short interval; we can dip into NUM_RESERVED_FDS for such cases. That means that there aren't all that many places where we need to worry. But postgres_fdw and dblink must use this facility to account for long-lived FDs consumed by libpq connections. There may be other places where it's worth doing such accounting, too, but this seems like enough to solve the immediate problem. Internally to fd.c, "external" FDs are limited to max_safe_fds/3 FDs. (Callers can choose to ignore this limit, but of course it's unwise to do so except for fixed file allocations.) I also reduced the limit on "allocated" files to max_safe_fds/3 FDs (it had been max_safe_fds/2). Conceivably a smarter rule could be used here --- but in practice, on reasonable systems, max_safe_fds should be large enough that this isn't much of an issue, so KISS for now. To avoid possible regression in the number of external or allocated files that can be opened, increase FD_MINFREE and the lower limit on max_files_per_process a little bit; we now insist that the effective "ulimit -n" be at least 64. This seems like pretty clearly a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints, I'll refrain from risking a back-patch. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/E1izCmM-0005pV-Co@gemulon.postgresql.org

Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility. Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

tableam: Add and use scan APIs. Too allow table accesses to be not directly dependent on heap, several new abstractions are needed. Specifically: 1) Heap scans need to be generalized into table scans. Do this by introducing TableScanDesc, which will be the "base class" for individual AMs. This contains the AM independent fields from HeapScanDesc. The previous heap_{beginscan,rescan,endscan} et al. have been replaced with a table_ version. There's no direct replacement for heap_getnext(), as that returned a HeapTuple, which is undesirable for a other AMs. Instead there's table_scan_getnextslot(). But note that heap_getnext() lives on, it's still used widely to access catalog tables. This is achieved by new scan_begin, scan_end, scan_rescan, scan_getnextslot callbacks. 2) The portion of parallel scans that's shared between backends need to be able to do so without the user doing per-AM work. To achieve that new parallelscan_{estimate, initialize, reinitialize} callbacks are introduced, which operate on a new ParallelTableScanDesc, which again can be subclassed by AMs. As it is likely that several AMs are going to be block oriented, block oriented callbacks that can be shared between such AMs are provided and used by heap. table_block_parallelscan_{estimate, intiialize, reinitialize} as callbacks, and table_block_parallelscan_{nextpage, init} for use in AMs. These operate on a ParallelBlockTableScanDesc. 3) Index scans need to be able to access tables to return a tuple, and there needs to be state across individual accesses to the heap to store state like buffers. That's now handled by introducing a sort-of-scan IndexFetchTable, which again is intended to be subclassed by individual AMs (for heap IndexFetchHeap). The relevant callbacks for an AM are index_fetch_{end, begin, reset} to create the necessary state, and index_fetch_tuple to retrieve an indexed tuple. Note that index_fetch_tuple implementations need to be smarter than just blindly fetching the tuples for AMs that have optimizations similar to heap's HOT - the currently alive tuple in the update chain needs to be fetched if appropriate. Similar to table_scan_getnextslot(), it's undesirable to continue to return HeapTuples. Thus index_fetch_heap (might want to rename that later) now accepts a slot as an argument. Core code doesn't have a lot of call sites performing index scans without going through the systable_* API (in contrast to loads of heap_getnext calls and working directly with HeapTuples). Index scans now store the result of a search in IndexScanDesc->xs_heaptid, rather than xs_ctup->t_self. As the target is not generally a HeapTuple anymore that seems cleaner. To be able to sensible adapt code to use the above, two further callbacks have been introduced: a) slot_callbacks returns a TupleTableSlotOps* suitable for creating slots capable of holding a tuple of the AMs type. table_slot_callbacks() and table_slot_create() are based upon that, but have additional logic to deal with views, foreign tables, etc. While this change could have been done separately, nearly all the call sites that needed to be adapted for the rest of this commit also would have been needed to be adapted for table_slot_callbacks(), making separation not worthwhile. b) tuple_satisfies_snapshot checks whether the tuple in a slot is currently visible according to a snapshot.

Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions. Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

tableam: Add and use scan APIs. Too allow table accesses to be not directly dependent on heap, several new abstractions are needed. Specifically: 1) Heap scans need to be generalized into table scans. Do this by introducing TableScanDesc, which will be the "base class" for individual AMs. This contains the AM independent fields from HeapScanDesc. The previous heap_{beginscan,rescan,endscan} et al. have been replaced with a table_ version. There's no direct replacement for heap_getnext(), as that returned a HeapTuple, which is undesirable for a other AMs. Instead there's table_scan_getnextslot(). But note that heap_getnext() lives on, it's still used widely to access catalog tables. This is achieved by new scan_begin, scan_end, scan_rescan, scan_getnextslot callbacks. 2) The portion of parallel scans that's shared between backends need to be able to do so without the user doing per-AM work. To achieve that new parallelscan_{estimate, initialize, reinitialize} callbacks are introduced, which operate on a new ParallelTableScanDesc, which again can be subclassed by AMs. As it is likely that several AMs are going to be block oriented, block oriented callbacks that can be shared between such AMs are provided and used by heap. table_block_parallelscan_{estimate, intiialize, reinitialize} as callbacks, and table_block_parallelscan_{nextpage, init} for use in AMs. These operate on a ParallelBlockTableScanDesc. 3) Index scans need to be able to access tables to return a tuple, and there needs to be state across individual accesses to the heap to store state like buffers. That's now handled by introducing a sort-of-scan IndexFetchTable, which again is intended to be subclassed by individual AMs (for heap IndexFetchHeap). The relevant callbacks for an AM are index_fetch_{end, begin, reset} to create the necessary state, and index_fetch_tuple to retrieve an indexed tuple. Note that index_fetch_tuple implementations need to be smarter than just blindly fetching the tuples for AMs that have optimizations similar to heap's HOT - the currently alive tuple in the update chain needs to be fetched if appropriate. Similar to table_scan_getnextslot(), it's undesirable to continue to return HeapTuples. Thus index_fetch_heap (might want to rename that later) now accepts a slot as an argument. Core code doesn't have a lot of call sites performing index scans without going through the systable_* API (in contrast to loads of heap_getnext calls and working directly with HeapTuples). Index scans now store the result of a search in IndexScanDesc->xs_heaptid, rather than xs_ctup->t_self. As the target is not generally a HeapTuple anymore that seems cleaner. To be able to sensible adapt code to use the above, two further callbacks have been introduced: a) slot_callbacks returns a TupleTableSlotOps* suitable for creating slots capable of holding a tuple of the AMs type. table_slot_callbacks() and table_slot_create() are based upon that, but have additional logic to deal with views, foreign tables, etc. While this change could have been done separately, nearly all the call sites that needed to be adapted for the rest of this commit also would have been needed to be adapted for table_slot_callbacks(), making separation not worthwhile. b) tuple_satisfies_snapshot checks whether the tuple in a slot is currently visible according to a snapshot. That's required as a few places now don't have a buffer + HeapTuple around, but a slot (which in heap's case internally has that information). Additionally a few infrastructure changes were needed: I) SysScanDesc, as used by systable_{beginscan, getnext} et al. now internally uses a slot to keep track of tuples.

Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility. Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Fix VACUUM so that it always updates pg_class.reltuples/relpages. When we added the ability for vacuum to skip heap pages by consulting the visibility map, we made it just not update the reltuples/relpages statistics if it skipped any pages. But this could leave us with extremely out-of-date stats for a table that contains any unchanging areas, especially for TOAST tables which never get processed by ANALYZE. In particular this could result in autovacuum making poor decisions about when to process the table, as in recent report from Florian Helmberger. And in general it's a bad idea to not update the stats at all. Instead, use the previous values of reltuples/relpages as an estimate of the tuple density in unvisited pages. This approach results in a "moving average" estimate of reltuples, which should converge to the correct value over multiple VACUUM and ANALYZE cycles even when individual measurements aren't very good. This new method for updating reltuples is used by both VACUUM and ANALYZE, with the result that we no longer need the grotty interconnections that caused ANALYZE to not update the stats depending on what had happened in the parent VACUUM command. Also, fix the logic for skipping all-visible pages during VACUUM so that it looks ahead rather than behind to decide what to do, as per a suggestion from Greg Stark. This eliminates useless scanning of all-visible pages at the start of the relation or just after a not-all-visible page. In particular, the first few pages of the relation will not be invariably included in the scanned pages, which seems to help in not overweighting them in the reltuples estimate. Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced.

I kept [most of] be280cdad298 ("Don't reset relhasindex for partitioned tables on ANALYZE") because while we added it due to 0827e8af70f4, it is a good bugfix in its own right, since it affects manual analyze as well as autovacuum-induced analyze, and there's no reason to revert it. I retained the addition of relkind 'p' to tables included by pg_stat_user_tables, because reverting that would require a catversion bump. Also, in pg14 only, I keep a struct member that was added to PgStat_TabStatEntry to avoid breaking compatibility with existing stat files. Backpatch to 14.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Fix stats collector to recover nicely when system clock goes backwards. Formerly, if the system clock went backwards, the stats collector would fail to update the stats file any more until the clock reading again exceeds whatever timestamp was last written into the stats file. Such glitches in the clock's behavior are not terribly unlikely on machines not using NTP. Such a scenario has been observed to cause regression test failures in the buildfarm, and it could have bad effects on the behavior of autovacuum, so it seems prudent to install some defenses. We could directly detect the clock going backwards by adding GetCurrentTimestamp calls in the stats collector's main loop, but that would hurt performance on platforms where GetCurrentTimestamp is expensive. To minimize the performance hit in normal cases, adopt a more complicated scheme wherein backends check for clock skew when reading the stats file, and if they see it, signal the stats collector by sending an extra stats inquiry message. The stats collector does an extra GetCurrentTimestamp only when it receives an inquiry with an apparently out-of-order timestamp. To avoid unnecessary GetCurrentTimestamp calls, expand the inquiry messages to carry the backend's current clock reading as well as its stats cutoff time. The latter, being intentionally slightly in-the-past, would trigger more clock rechecks than we need if it were used for this purpose. We might want to backpatch this change at some point, but let's let it shake out in the buildfarm for awhile first.

Change function call information to be variable length. Before this change FunctionCallInfoData, the struct arguments etc for V1 function calls are stored in, always had space for FUNC_MAX_ARGS/100 arguments, storing datums and their nullness in two arrays. For nearly every function call 100 arguments is far more than needed, therefore wasting memory. Arg and argnull being two separate arrays also guarantees that to access a single argument, two cachelines have to be touched. Change the layout so there's a single variable-length array with pairs of value / isnull. That drastically reduces memory consumption for most function calls (on x86-64 a two argument function now uses 64bytes, previously 936 bytes), and makes it very likely that argument value and its nullness are on the same cacheline. Arguments are stored in a new NullableDatum struct, which, due to padding, needs more memory per argument than before. But as usually far fewer arguments are stored, and individual arguments are cheaper to access, that's still a clear win. It's likely that there's other places where conversion to NullableDatum arrays would make sense, e.g. TupleTableSlots, but that's for another commit. Because the function call information is now variable-length allocations have to take the number of arguments into account. For heap allocations that can be done with SizeForFunctionCallInfoData(), for on-stack allocations there's a new LOCAL_FCINFO(name, nargs) macro that helps to allocate an appropriately sized and aligned variable. Some places with stack allocation function call information don't know the number of arguments at compile time, and currently variably sized stack allocations aren't allowed in postgres. Therefore allow for FUNC_MAX_ARGS space in these cases. They're not that common, so for now that seems acceptable. Because of the need to allocate FunctionCallInfo of the appropriate size, older extensions may need to update their code. To avoid subtle breakages, the FunctionCallInfoData struct has been renamed to FunctionCallInfoBaseData. Most code only references FunctionCallInfo, so that shouldn't cause much collateral damage. This change is also a prerequisite for more efficient expression JIT compilation (by allocating the function call information on the stack, allowing LLVM to optimize it away); previously the size of the call information caused problems inside LLVM's optimizer.

Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions. Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Avoid useless closely-spaced writes of statistics files. The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec. Backends will not make requests at all if they see the existing data is newer than that, and the stats collector is supposed to disregard requests having a cutoff_time older than its most recently written data, so that close-together requests don't result in multiple writes. But the latter part of that got broken in commit 187492b6c2e8cafc, so that if two backends concurrently decide the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice. (In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case the window in which it might work would be much shorter than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.) To fix, improve pgstat_recv_inquiry so that it checks whether the cutoff time is too old, and doesn't add a request to the queue if so. This means that we do not need DBWriteRequest.request_time, because the decision is taken before making a queue entry. And that means that we don't really need the DBWriteRequest data structure at all; an OID list of database OIDs will serve and allow removal of some rather verbose and crufty code. In passing, improve the comments in this area, which have been rather neglected. Also change backend_read_statsfile so that it's not silently relying on MyDatabaseId to have some particular value in the autovacuum launcher process. It accidentally worked as desired because MyDatabaseId is zero in that process; but that does not seem like a dependency we want, especially with no documentation about it.

Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions. Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Trigger autovacuum based on number of INSERTs Traditionally autovacuum has only ever invoked a worker based on the estimated number of dead tuples in a table and for anti-wraparound purposes. For the latter, with certain classes of tables such as insert-only tables, anti-wraparound vacuums could be the first vacuum that the table ever receives. This could often lead to autovacuum workers being busy for extended periods of time due to having to potentially freeze every page in the table. This could be particularly bad for very large tables. New clusters, or recently pg_restored clusters could suffer even more as many large tables may have the same relfrozenxid, which could result in large numbers of tables requiring an anti-wraparound vacuum all at once. Here we aim to reduce the work required by anti-wraparound and aggressive vacuums in general, by triggering autovacuum when the table has received enough INSERTs. This is controlled by adding two new GUCs and reloptions; autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold and autovacuum_vacuum_insert_scale_factor. These work exactly the same as the existing scale factor and threshold controls, only base themselves off the number of inserts since the last vacuum, rather than the number of dead tuples. New controls were added rather than reusing the existing controls, to allow these new vacuums to be tuned independently and perhaps even completely disabled altogether, which can be done by setting autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold to -1. We make no attempt to skip index cleanup operations on these vacuums as they may trigger for an insert-mostly table which continually doesn't have enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum for the purpose of removing those dead tuples. If we were to skip cleaning the indexes in this case, then it is possible for the index(es) to become bloated over time. There are additional benefits to triggering autovacuums based on inserts, as tables which never contain enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum are now more likely to receive a vacuum, which can mark more of the table as "allvisible" and encourage the query planner to make use of Index Only Scans. Currently, we still obey vacuum_freeze_min_age when triggering these new autovacuums based on INSERTs. For large insert-only tables, it may be beneficial to lower the table's autovacuum_freeze_min_age so that tuples are eligible to be frozen sooner. Here we've opted not to zero that for these types of vacuums, since the table may just be insert-mostly and we may otherwise freeze tuples that are still destined to be updated or removed in the near future. There was some debate to what exactly the new scale factor and threshold should default to. For now, these are set to 0.2 and 1000, respectively. There may be some motivation to adjust these before the release.

Avoid useless closely-spaced writes of statistics files. The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec.

But the latter part of that got broken in commit 187492b6c2e8cafc, so that if two backends concurrently decide the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice. (In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case the window in which it might work would be much shorter than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.) To fix, improve pgstat_recv_inquiry so that it checks whether the cutoff time is too old, and doesn't add a request to the queue if so. This means that we do not need DBWriteRequest.request_time, because the decision is taken before making a queue entry.

Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions. Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

Fix stats collector to recover nicely when system clock goes backwards. Formerly, if the system clock went backwards, the stats collector would fail to update the stats file any more until the clock reading again exceeds whatever timestamp was last written into the stats file. Such glitches in the clock's behavior are not terribly unlikely on machines not using NTP. Such a scenario has been observed to cause regression test failures in the buildfarm, and it could have bad effects on the behavior of autovacuum, so it seems prudent to install some defenses. We could directly detect the clock going backwards by adding GetCurrentTimestamp calls in the stats collector's main loop, but that would hurt performance on platforms where GetCurrentTimestamp is expensive. To minimize the performance hit in normal cases, adopt a more complicated scheme wherein backends check for clock skew when reading the stats file, and if they see it, signal the stats collector by sending an extra stats inquiry message. The stats collector does an extra GetCurrentTimestamp only when it receives an inquiry with an apparently out-of-order timestamp. To avoid unnecessary GetCurrentTimestamp calls, expand the inquiry messages to carry the backend's current clock reading as well as its stats cutoff time. The latter, being intentionally slightly in-the-past, would trigger more clock rechecks than we need if it were used for this purpose. We might want to backpatch this change at some point, but let's let it shake out in the buildfarm for awhile first.

Ignore old stats file timestamps when starting the stats collector. The stats collector disregards inquiry messages that bear a cutoff_time before when it last wrote the relevant stats file. That's fine, but at startup when it reads the "permanent" stats files, it absorbed their timestamps as if they were the times at which the corresponding temporary stats files had been written. In reality, of course, there's no data out there at all. This led to disregarding inquiry messages soon after startup if the postmaster had been shut down and restarted within less than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL; which is a pretty common scenario, both for testing and in the field. Requesting backends would hang for 10 seconds and then report failure to read statistics, unless they got bailed out by some other backend coming along and making a newer request within that interval. I came across this through investigating unexpected delays in the src/test/recovery TAP tests: it manifests there because the autovacuum launcher hangs for 10 seconds when it can't get statistics at startup, thus preventing a second shutdown from occurring promptly. We might want to do some things in the autovac code to make it less prone to getting stuck that way, but this change is a good bug fix regardless. In passing, also fix pgstat_read_statsfiles() to ensure that it re-zeroes its global stats variables if they are corrupted by a short read from the stats file. (Other reads in that function go into temp variables, so that the issue doesn't arise.) This has been broken since we created the separation between permanent and temporary stats files in 8.4, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Fix stats collector to recover nicely when system clock goes backwards. Formerly, if the system clock went backwards, the stats collector would fail to update the stats file any more until the clock reading again exceeds whatever timestamp was last written into the stats file. Such glitches in the clock's behavior are not terribly unlikely on machines not using NTP. Such a scenario has been observed to cause regression test failures in the buildfarm, and it could have bad effects on the behavior of autovacuum, so it seems prudent to install some defenses. We could directly detect the clock going backwards by adding GetCurrentTimestamp calls in the stats collector's main loop, but that would hurt performance on platforms where GetCurrentTimestamp is expensive. To minimize the performance hit in normal cases, adopt a more complicated scheme wherein backends check for clock skew when reading the stats file, and if they see it, signal the stats collector by sending an extra stats inquiry message. The stats collector does an extra GetCurrentTimestamp only when it receives an inquiry with an apparently out-of-order timestamp. To avoid unnecessary GetCurrentTimestamp calls, expand the inquiry messages to carry the backend's current clock reading as well as its stats cutoff time. The latter, being intentionally slightly in-the-past, would trigger more clock rechecks than we need if it were used for this purpose. We might want to backpatch this change at some point, but let's let it shake out in the buildfarm for awhile first.

Fix stats collector to recover nicely when system clock goes backwards. Formerly, if the system clock went backwards, the stats collector would fail to update the stats file any more until the clock reading again exceeds whatever timestamp was last written into the stats file. Such glitches in the clock's behavior are not terribly unlikely on machines not using NTP. Such a scenario has been observed to cause regression test failures in the buildfarm, and it could have bad effects on the behavior of autovacuum, so it seems prudent to install some defenses. We could directly detect the clock going backwards by adding GetCurrentTimestamp calls in the stats collector's main loop, but that would hurt performance on platforms where GetCurrentTimestamp is expensive. To minimize the performance hit in normal cases, adopt a more complicated scheme wherein backends check for clock skew when reading the stats file, and if they see it, signal the stats collector by sending an extra stats inquiry message. The stats collector does an extra GetCurrentTimestamp only when it receives an inquiry with an apparently out-of-order timestamp. To avoid unnecessary GetCurrentTimestamp calls, expand the inquiry messages to carry the backend's current clock reading as well as its stats cutoff time. The latter, being intentionally slightly in-the-past, would trigger more clock rechecks than we need if it were used for this purpose. We might want to backpatch this change at some point, but let's let it shake out in the buildfarm for awhile first.

Add macros to make AllocSetContextCreate() calls simpler and safer. I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies, and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases. Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts; those two calls can be left as-is, I think. While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can gradually adopt the simplified notation over time. In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts. Back-patch to 9.6, mostly because that's still close enough to HEAD that it's easy to do so, and keeping the branches in sync can be expected to avoid some future back-patching pain.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count.

Trigger autovacuum based on number of INSERTs Traditionally autovacuum has only ever invoked a worker based on the estimated number of dead tuples in a table and for anti-wraparound purposes. For the latter, with certain classes of tables such as insert-only tables, anti-wraparound vacuums could be the first vacuum that the table ever receives. This could often lead to autovacuum workers being busy for extended periods of time due to having to potentially freeze every page in the table. This could be particularly bad for very large tables. New clusters, or recently pg_restored clusters could suffer even more as many large tables may have the same relfrozenxid, which could result in large numbers of tables requiring an anti-wraparound vacuum all at once. Here we aim to reduce the work required by anti-wraparound and aggressive vacuums in general, by triggering autovacuum when the table has received enough INSERTs. This is controlled by adding two new GUCs and reloptions; autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold and autovacuum_vacuum_insert_scale_factor. These work exactly the same as the existing scale factor and threshold controls, only base themselves off the number of inserts since the last vacuum, rather than the number of dead tuples. New controls were added rather than reusing the existing controls, to allow these new vacuums to be tuned independently and perhaps even completely disabled altogether, which can be done by setting autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold to -1. We make no attempt to skip index cleanup operations on these vacuums as they may trigger for an insert-mostly table which continually doesn't have enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum for the purpose of removing those dead tuples. If we were to skip cleaning the indexes in this case, then it is possible for the index(es) to become bloated over time. There are additional benefits to triggering autovacuums based on inserts, as tables which never contain enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum are now more likely to receive a vacuum, which can mark more of the table as "allvisible" and encourage the query planner to make use of Index Only Scans. Currently, we still obey vacuum_freeze_min_age when triggering these new autovacuums based on INSERTs. For large insert-only tables, it may be beneficial to lower the table's autovacuum_freeze_min_age so that tuples are eligible to be frozen sooner. Here we've opted not to zero that for these types of vacuums, since the table may just be insert-mostly and we may otherwise freeze tuples that are still destined to be updated or removed in the near future. There was some debate to what exactly the new scale factor and threshold should default to. For now, these are set to 0.2 and 1000, respectively. There may be some motivation to adjust these before the release.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction.

Trigger autovacuum based on number of INSERTs Traditionally autovacuum has only ever invoked a worker based on the estimated number of dead tuples in a table and for anti-wraparound purposes. For the latter, with certain classes of tables such as insert-only tables, anti-wraparound vacuums could be the first vacuum that the table ever receives. This could often lead to autovacuum workers being busy for extended periods of time due to having to potentially freeze every page in the table. This could be particularly bad for very large tables. New clusters, or recently pg_restored clusters could suffer even more as many large tables may have the same relfrozenxid, which could result in large numbers of tables requiring an anti-wraparound vacuum all at once. Here we aim to reduce the work required by anti-wraparound and aggressive vacuums in general, by triggering autovacuum when the table has received enough INSERTs. This is controlled by adding two new GUCs and reloptions; autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold and autovacuum_vacuum_insert_scale_factor. These work exactly the same as the existing scale factor and threshold controls, only base themselves off the number of inserts since the last vacuum, rather than the number of dead tuples. New controls were added rather than reusing the existing controls, to allow these new vacuums to be tuned independently and perhaps even completely disabled altogether, which can be done by setting autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold to -1. We make no attempt to skip index cleanup operations on these vacuums as they may trigger for an insert-mostly table which continually doesn't have enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum for the purpose of removing those dead tuples. If we were to skip cleaning the indexes in this case, then it is possible for the index(es) to become bloated over time. There are additional benefits to triggering autovacuums based on inserts, as tables which never contain enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum are now more likely to receive a vacuum, which can mark more of the table as "allvisible" and encourage the query planner to make use of Index Only Scans. Currently, we still obey vacuum_freeze_min_age when triggering these new autovacuums based on INSERTs. For large insert-only tables, it may be beneficial to lower the table's autovacuum_freeze_min_age so that tuples are eligible to be frozen sooner. Here we've opted not to zero that for these types of vacuums, since the table may just be insert-mostly and we may otherwise freeze tuples that are still destined to be updated or removed in the near future. There was some debate to what exactly the new scale factor and threshold should default to. For now, these are set to 0.2 and 1000, respectively. There may be some motivation to adjust these before the release.

Revise pgstat's tracking of tuple changes to improve the reliability of decisions about when to auto-analyze. The previous code depended on n_live_tuples + n_dead_tuples - last_anl_tuples, where all three of these numbers could be bad estimates from ANALYZE itself. Even worse, in the presence of a steady flow of HOT updates and matching HOT-tuple reclamations, auto-analyze might never trigger at all, even if all three numbers are exactly right, because n_dead_tuples could hold steady. To fix, replace last_anl_tuples with an accurately tracked count of the total number of committed tuple inserts + updates + deletes since the last ANALYZE on the table. This can still be compared to the same threshold as before, but it's much more trustworthy than the old computation. Tracking this requires one more intra-transaction counter per modified table within backends, but no additional memory space in the stats collector. There probably isn't any measurable speed difference; if anything it might be a bit faster than before, since I was able to eliminate some per-tuple arithmetic operations in favor of adding sums once per (sub)transaction. Also, simplify the logic around pgstat vacuum and analyze reporting messages by not trying to fold VACUUM ANALYZE into a single pgstat message. The original thought behind this patch was to allow scheduling of analyzes on parent tables by artificially inflating their changes_since_analyze count. I've left that for a separate patch since this change seems to stand on its own merit.

Fix VACUUM so that it always updates pg_class.reltuples/relpages. When we added the ability for vacuum to skip heap pages by consulting the visibility map, we made it just not update the reltuples/relpages statistics if it skipped any pages. But this could leave us with extremely out-of-date stats for a table that contains any unchanging areas, especially for TOAST tables which never get processed by ANALYZE. In particular this could result in autovacuum making poor decisions about when to process the table, as in recent report from Florian Helmberger. And in general it's a bad idea to not update the stats at all. Instead, use the previous values of reltuples/relpages as an estimate of the tuple density in unvisited pages. This approach results in a "moving average" estimate of reltuples, which should converge to the correct value over multiple VACUUM and ANALYZE cycles even when individual measurements aren't very good. This new method for updating reltuples is used by both VACUUM and ANALYZE, with the result that we no longer need the grotty interconnections that caused ANALYZE to not update the stats depending on what had happened in the parent VACUUM command. Also, fix the logic for skipping all-visible pages during VACUUM so that it looks ahead rather than behind to decide what to do, as per a suggestion from Greg Stark. This eliminates useless scanning of all-visible pages at the start of the relation or just after a not-all-visible page. In particular, the first few pages of the relation will not be invariably included in the scanned pages, which seems to help in not overweighting them in the reltuples estimate. Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced.

Avoid useless closely-spaced writes of statistics files. The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec. Backends will not make requests at all if they see the existing data is newer than that, and the stats collector is supposed to disregard requests having a cutoff_time older than its most recently written data, so that close-together requests don't result in multiple writes. But the latter part of that got broken in commit 187492b6c2e8cafc, so that if two backends concurrently decide the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice. (In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case the window in which it might work would be much shorter than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.) To fix, improve pgstat_recv_inquiry so that it checks whether the cutoff time is too old, and doesn't add a request to the queue if so. This means that we do not need DBWriteRequest.request_time, because the decision is taken before making a queue entry. And that means that we don't really need the DBWriteRequest data structure at all; an OID list of database OIDs will serve and allow removal of some rather verbose and crufty code. In passing, improve the comments in this area, which have been rather neglected. Also change backend_read_statsfile so that it's not silently relying on MyDatabaseId to have some particular value in the autovacuum launcher process. It accidentally worked as desired because MyDatabaseId is zero in that process; but that does not seem like a dependency we want, especially with no documentation about it. Although this patch is mine, it turns out I'd rediscovered a known bug, for which Tomas Vondra had already submitted a patch that's functionally equivalent to the non-cosmetic aspects of this patch.

Avoid useless closely-spaced writes of statistics files. The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec. Backends will not make requests at all if they see the existing data is newer than that, and the stats collector is supposed to disregard requests having a cutoff_time older than its most recently written data, so that close-together requests don't result in multiple writes. But the latter part of that got broken in commit 187492b6c2e8cafc, so that if two backends concurrently decide the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice. (In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case the window in which it might work would be much shorter than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.)
