Tom Lane 0245f8db36 Pre-beta mechanical code beautification.
Run pgindent, pgperltidy, and reformat-dat-files.

This set of diffs is a bit larger than typical.  We've updated to
pg_bsd_indent 2.1.2, which properly indents variable declarations that
have multi-line initialization expressions (the continuation lines are
now indented one tab stop).  We've also updated to perltidy version
20230309 and changed some of its settings, which reduces its desire to
add whitespace to lines to make assignments etc. line up.  Going
forward, that should make for fewer random-seeming changes to existing
code.

Michael Paquier 58f5edf849 Fix typo with wait event for SLRU buffer of commit timestamps
This wait event was documented as "CommitTsBuffer" since its
introduction, but the code named it "CommitTSBuffer".  This commit fixes
the code to follow the term documented, which is also more consistent
with the naming of the other wait events used for commit timestamps.

Introduced by 5da1493.

Tom Lane 5a3a95385b Track logrep apply workers' last start times to avoid useless waits.
Enforce wal_retrieve_retry_interval on a per-subscription basis,
rather than globally, and arrange to skip that delay in case of
an intentional worker exit.  This probably makes little difference
in the field, where apply workers wouldn't be restarted often;
but it has a significant impact on the runtime of our logical
replication regression tests (even though those tests use
artificially-small wal_retrieve_retry_interval settings already).

Peter Eisentraut 75f49221c2 Static assertions cleanup
Because we added StaticAssertStmt() first before StaticAssertDecl(),
some uses as well as the instructions in c.h are now a bit backwards
from the "native" way static assertions are meant to be used in C.
This updates the guidance and moves some static assertions to better
places.

Specifically, since the addition of StaticAssertDecl(), we can put
static assertions at the file level.  This moves a number of static
assertions out of function bodies, where they might have been stuck
out of necessity, to perhaps better places at the file level or in
header files.

Also, when the static assertion appears in a position where a
declaration is allowed, then using StaticAssertDecl() is more native
than StaticAssertStmt().

Andres Freund a4adc31f69 lwlock: Fix quadratic behavior with very long wait lists
Until now LWLockDequeueSelf() sequentially searched the list of waiters to see
if the current proc is still is on the list of waiters, or has already been
removed. In extreme workloads, where the wait lists are very long, this leads
to a quadratic behavior. #backends iterating over a list #backends
long. Additionally, the likelihood of needing to call LWLockDequeueSelf() in
the first place also increases with the increased length of the wait queue, as
it becomes more likely that a lock is released while waiting for the wait list
lock, which is held for longer during lock release.

Due to the exponential back-off in perform_spin_delay() this is surprisingly
hard to detect. We should make that easier, e.g. by adding a wait event around
the pg_usleep() - but that's a separate patch.

The fix is simple - track whether a proc is currently waiting in the wait list
or already removed but waiting to be woken up in PGPROC->lwWaiting.

In some workloads with a lot of clients contending for a small number of
lwlocks (e.g. WALWriteLock), the fix can substantially increase throughput.

As the quadratic behavior arguably is a bug, we might want to decide to
backpatch this fix in the future.

Thomas Munro eed959a457 Fix lock assertions in dshash.c.
dshash.c previously maintained flags to be able to assert that you
didn't hold any partition lock.  These flags could get out of sync with
reality in error scenarios.

Get rid of all that, and make assertions about the locks themselves
instead.  Since LWLockHeldByMe() loops internally, we don't want to put
that inside another loop over all partition locks.  Introduce a new
debugging-only interface LWLockAnyHeldByMe() to avoid that.

This problem was noted by Tom and Andres while reviewing changes to
support the new shared memory stats system, and later showed up in
reality while working on commit 389869af.

Back-patch to 11, where dshash.c arrived.

Robert Haas 4f2400cb3f Add a new shmem_request_hook hook.
Currently, preloaded libraries are expected to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks in _PG_init().  However, it is not unusal
for such requests to depend on MaxBackends, which won't be
initialized at that time.  Such requests could also depend on GUCs
that other modules might change.  This introduces a new hook where
modules can safely use MaxBackends and GUCs to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks.

Furthermore, this change restricts requests for shared memory and
LWLocks to this hook.  Previously, libraries could make requests
until the size of the main shared memory segment was calculated.
Unlike before, we no longer silently ignore requests received at
invalid times.  Instead, we FATAL if someone tries to request
additional shared memory or LWLocks outside of the hook.

Andres Freund 5891c7a8ed pgstat: store statistics in shared memory.
Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and
shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These
files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a
second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful
statistics.

Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered
objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared
memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory.

The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture.

The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it.

By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a
prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked
statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On
systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite
expensive.

Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not
necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down
replica.

Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add
tests.

Bumps PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID.

David Rowley 3788c66788 Improve various places that double the size of a buffer
Several places were performing a tight loop to determine the first power
of 2 number that's > or >= the required memory.  Instead of using a loop
for that, we can use pg_nextpower2_32 or pg_nextpower2_64.  When we need a
power of 2 number equal to or greater than a given amount, we just pass
the amount to the nextpower2 function.  When we need a power of 2 greater
than the amount, we just pass the amount + 1.

Additionally, in tsearch there were a couple of locations that were
performing a while loop when a simple "if" would have done.  In both of
these locations only 1 item is being added, so the loop could only have
ever iterated once.  Changing the loop into an if statement makes the code
very slightly more optimal as the condition is checked once rather than
twice.

There are quite a few remaining locations that increase the size of the
buffer in the following form:

  while (reqsize >= buflen)
  {
     buflen *= 2;
     buf = repalloc(buf, buflen);
  }

These are not touched in this commit.  repalloc will error out for sizes
larger than MaxAllocSize.  Changing these to use pg_nextpower2_32 would
remove the chance of that error being raised.  It's unclear from the code
if the sizes could ever become that large, so err on the side of caution.

Tom Lane b3817f5f77 Improve hash_create()'s API for some added robustness.
Invent a new flag bit HASH_STRINGS to specify C-string hashing, which
was formerly the default; and add assertions insisting that exactly
one of the bits HASH_STRINGS, HASH_BLOBS, and HASH_FUNCTION be set.
This is in hopes of preventing recurrences of the type of oversight
fixed in commit a1b8aa1e4 (i.e., mistakenly omitting HASH_BLOBS).

Also, when HASH_STRINGS is specified, insist that the keysize be
more than 8 bytes.  This is a heuristic, but it should catch
accidental use of HASH_STRINGS for integer or pointer keys.
(Nearly all existing use-cases set the keysize to NAMEDATALEN or
more, so there's little reason to think this restriction should
be problematic.)

Tweak hash_create() to insist that the HASH_ELEM flag be set, and
remove the defaults it had for keysize and entrysize.  Since those
defaults were undocumented and basically useless, no callers
omitted HASH_ELEM anyway.

Also, remove memset's zeroing the HASHCTL parameter struct from
those callers that had one.  This has never been really necessary,
and while it wasn't a bad coding convention it was confusing that
some callers did it and some did not.  We might as well save a few
cycles by standardizing on "not".

Also improve the documentation for hash_create().

In passing, improve reinit.c's usage of a hash table by storing
the key as a binary Oid rather than a string; and, since that's
a temporary hash table, allocate it in CurrentMemoryContext for
neatness.

Tom Lane 5da14938f7 Rename SLRU structures and associated LWLocks.
Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than
being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them.
As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and
the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit
more care.  Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk
storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some
extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like
a good thing).  Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names
are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names.

For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules'
SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects.  This
renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so.
But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally
visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable.

(But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that
name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.)

Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till
after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind.

Tom Lane 29c3e2dd5a Collect built-in LWLock tranche names statically, not dynamically.
There is little point in using the LWLockRegisterTranche mechanism for
built-in tranche names.  It wastes cycles, it creates opportunities for
bugs (since failing to register a tranche name is a very hard-to-detect
problem), and the lack of any centralized list of names encourages
sloppy nonconformity in name choices.  Moreover, since we have a
centralized list of the tranches anyway in enum BuiltinTrancheIds, we're
certainly not buying any flexibility in return for these disadvantages.

Hence, nuke all the backend-internal LWLockRegisterTranche calls,
and instead provide a const array of the builtin tranche names.

(I have in mind to change a bunch of these names shortly, but this
patch is just about getting them into one place.)

Fujii Masao 3ccc66dac6 Fix bug in LWLock statistics mechanism.
Previously PostgreSQL built with -DLWLOCK_STATS could report
more than one LWLock statistics entries for the same backend
process and the same LWLock. This is strange and only one
statistics should be output in that case, instead.

The cause of this issue is that the key variable used for
LWLock stats hash table was not fully initialized. The key
consists of two fields and they were initialized. But
the following 4 bytes allocated in the key variable for
the alignment was not initialized. So even if the same key
was specified, hash_search(HASH_ENTER) could not find
the existing entry for that key and created new one.

This commit fixes this issue by initializing the key
variable with zero. As the side effect of this commit,
the volume of LWLock statistics output would be reduced
very much.

Back-patch to v10, where commit 3761fe3c20 introduced the issue.

Thomas Munro bb16aba50c Enable parallel query with SERIALIZABLE isolation.
Previously, the SERIALIZABLE isolation level prevented parallel query
from being used.  Allow the two features to be used together by
sharing the leader's SERIALIZABLEXACT with parallel workers.

An extra per-SERIALIZABLEXACT LWLock is introduced to make it safe to
share, and new logic is introduced to coordinate the early release
of the SERIALIZABLEXACT required for the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE
optimization, as follows:

The first backend to observe the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE flag (set by
some other transaction) will 'partially release' the SERIALIZABLEXACT,
meaning that the conflicts and locks it holds are released, but the
SERIALIZABLEXACT itself will remain active because other backends
might still have a pointer to it.

Whenever any backend notices the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE flag, it clears
its own MySerializableXact variable and frees local resources so that
it can skip SSI checks for the rest of the transaction.  In the
special case of the leader process, it transfers the SERIALIZABLEXACT
to a new variable SavedSerializableXact, so that it can be completely
released at the end of the transaction after all workers have exited.

Remove the serializable_okay flag added to CreateParallelContext() by
commit 9da0cc35, because it's now redundant.

Tom Lane 51940f9760 Cast to void in StaticAssertExpr, not its callers.
Seems a bit silly that many (in fact all, as of today) uses of
StaticAssertExpr would need to cast it to void to avoid warnings from
pickier compilers.  Let's just do the cast right in the macro, instead.

In passing, change StaticAssertExpr to StaticAssertStmt in one
place where that seems more apropos.

Andres Freund ab9e0e718a Add shared tuplestores.
SharedTuplestore allows multiple participants to write into it and
then read the tuples back from it in parallel.  Each reader receives
partial results.

For now it always uses disk files, but other buffering policies and
other kinds of scans (ie each reader receives complete results) may be
useful in future.

The upcoming parallel hash join feature will use this facility.

Robert Haas ab72716778 Support Parallel Append plan nodes.
When we create an Append node, we can spread out the workers over the
subplans instead of piling on to each subplan one at a time, which
should typically be a bit more efficient, both because the startup
cost of any plan executed entirely by one worker is paid only once and
also because of reduced contention.  We can also construct Append
plans using a mix of partial and non-partial subplans, which may allow
for parallelism in places that otherwise couldn't support it.
Unfortunately, this patch doesn't handle the important case of
parallelizing UNION ALL by running each branch in a separate worker;
the executor infrastructure is added here, but more planner work is
needed.

Peter Eisentraut 2eb4a831e5 Change TRUE/FALSE to true/false
The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most
parts of the PostgreSQL sources.  The upper case spellings are only used
in some files/modules.  So standardize on the standard spellings.

The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so
those are left as is when using those APIs.

In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and
keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts.

Andres Freund cc5f81366c Add support for coordinating record typmods among parallel workers.
Tuples can have type RECORDOID and a typmod number that identifies a blessed
TupleDesc in a backend-private cache.  To support the sharing of such tuples
through shared memory and temporary files, provide a typmod registry in
shared memory.

To achieve that, introduce per-session DSM segments, created on demand when a
backend first runs a parallel query.  The per-session DSM segment has a
table-of-contents just like the per-query DSM segment, and initially the
contents are a shared record typmod registry and a DSA area to provide the
space it needs to grow.

State relating to the current session is accessed via a Session object
reached through global variable CurrentSession that may require significant
redesign further down the road as we figure out what else needs to be shared
or remodelled.

Tom Lane c7b8998ebb Phase 2 of pgindent updates.
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.

Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code.  The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there.  BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs.  So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before.  This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.

Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane e3860ffa4d Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:

* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
  sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
  well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
  with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
  than the expected column 33.

On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list.  This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.

There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses.  I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.
