Introduce an abstraction allowing relation data to be accessed as a
stream of buffers, with an implementation that is more efficient than
the equivalent sequence of ReadBuffer() calls.
Client code supplies a callback that can say which block number it wants
next, and then consumes individual buffers one at a time from the
stream. This division puts read_stream.c in control of how far ahead it
can see and allows it to read clusters of neighboring blocks with
StartReadBuffers(). It also issues POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED advice ahead of
time when random access is detected.
Other variants of I/O stream will be proposed in future work (for
example to support recovery, whose LsnReadQueue device in
xlogprefetcher.c is a distant cousin of this code and should eventually
be replaced by this), but this basic API is sufficient for many common
executor usage patterns involving predictable access to a single fork of
a single relation.
Several patches using this API are proposed separately.
This stream concept is loosely based on ideas from Andres Freund on how
we should pave the way for later work on asynchronous I/O.

Break ReadBuffer() up into two steps. StartReadBuffers() and
WaitReadBuffers() give us two main advantages:
1. Multiple consecutive blocks can be read with one system call.
2. Advice (hints of future reads) can optionally be issued to the
kernel ahead of time.
The traditional ReadBuffer() function is now implemented in terms of
those functions, to avoid duplication.
A new GUC io_combine_limit is defined, and the functions for limiting
per-backend pin counts are made into public APIs. Those are provided
for use by callers of StartReadBuffers(), when deciding how many buffers
to read at once. The following commit will add a higher level mechanism
for doing that automatically with a practical interface.
With some more infrastructure in later work, StartReadBuffers() could
be extended to start real asynchronous I/O instead of just issuing
advice and leaving WaitReadBuffers() to do the work synchronously.

Previously, we used a simple array for storing dead tuple IDs during
lazy vacuum, which had a number of problems:
* The array used a single allocation and so was limited to 1GB.
* The allocation was pessimistically sized according to table size.
* Lookup with binary search was slow because of poor CPU cache and
branch prediction behavior.
This commit replaces that array with the TID store from commit
30e144287a.
Since the backing radix tree makes small allocations as needed, the
1GB limit is now gone. Further, the total memory used is now often
smaller by an order of magnitude or more, depending on the
distribution of blocks and offsets. These two features should make
multiple rounds of heap scanning and index cleanup an extremely rare
event. TID lookup during index cleanup is also several times faster,
even more so when index order is correlated with heap tuple order.
Since there is no longer a predictable relationship between the number
of dead tuples vacuumed and the space taken up by their TIDs, the
number of tuples no longer provides any meaningful insights for users,
nor is the maximum number predictable. For that reason this commit
also changes to byte-based progress reporting, with the relevant
columns of pg_stat_progress_vacuum renamed accordingly to
max_dead_tuple_bytes and dead_tuple_bytes.
For parallel vacuum, both the TID store and supplemental information
specific to vacuum are shared among the parallel vacuum workers. As
with the previous array, we don't take any locks on TidStore during
parallel vacuum since writes are still only done by the leader
process.

66c0185a3 adjusted the UNION planner to request that union child queries
produce Paths correctly ordered to implement the UNION by way of
MergeAppend followed by Unique. The code there made a bad assumption
that if the root->parent_root->parse had setOperations set that the
query must be the child subquery of a set operation. That's not true
when it comes to planning a non-inlined CTE which is parented by a set
operation. This causes issues as the CTE's targetlist has no
requirement to match up to the SetOperationStmt's groupClauses
Fix this by adding a new parameter to both subquery_planner() and
grouping_planner() to explicitly pass the SetOperationStmt only when
planning set operation child subqueries.
Thank you to Tom Lane for helping to rationalize the decision on the
best function signature for subquery_planner().

This patch allows pg_restore to wrap its commands into transaction
blocks, somewhat like --single-transaction, except that we commit
and start a new block after every N objects. Using this mode
with a size limit of 1000 or so objects greatly reduces the number
of transactions consumed by the restore, while preventing any
one transaction from taking enough locks to overrun the receiving
server's shared lock table.
(A value of 1000 works well with the default lock table size of
around 6400 locks. Higher --transaction-size values can be used
if one has increased the receiving server's lock table size.)
Excessive consumption of XIDs has been reported as a problem for
pg_upgrade in particular, but it could be bad for any restore; and the
change also reduces the number of fsyncs and amount of WAL generated,
so it should provide speed benefits too.
This patch does not try to make parallel workers batch the SQL
commands they issue. The trouble with doing that is that other
workers may need to see the objects a worker creates right away.
Possibly this can be improved later.
In this patch I have hard-wired pg_upgrade to use a transaction size
of 1000 divided by the number of parallel restore jobs allowed
(without that, we'd still be at risk of overrunning the shared lock
table). Perhaps there would be value in adding another pg_upgrade
option to allow user control of that, but I'm unsure that it's worth
the trouble; I think few users would use it, and any who did would see
not that much benefit compared to the default.
Patch by me, but the original idea to batch SQL commands during
restore is due to Robins Tharakan.

Commit c0d5be5d6 caused pg_dump to create a separate BLOB metadata TOC
entry for each large object (blob), but it did not touch the ancient
decision to put all the blobs' data into a single "BLOBS" TOC entry.
This is bad for a few reasons: for databases with millions of blobs,
the TOC becomes unreasonably large, causing performance issues;
selective restore of just some blobs is quite impossible; and we
cannot parallelize either dump or restore of the blob data, since our
architecture for that relies on farming out whole TOC entries to
worker processes.
To improve matters, let's group multiple blobs into each blob metadata
TOC entry, and then make corresponding per-group blob data TOC entries.
Selective restore using pg_restore's -l/-L switches is then possible,
though only at the group level. (Perhaps we should provide a switch
to allow forcing one-blob-per-group for users who need precise
selective restore and don't have huge numbers of blobs. This patch
doesn't do that, instead just hard-wiring the maximum number of blobs
per entry at 1000.)
The blobs in a group must all have the same owner, since the TOC entry
format only allows one owner to be named. In this implementation
we also require them to all share the same ACL (grants); the archive
format wouldn't require that, but pg_dump's representation of
DumpableObjects does. It seems unlikely that either restriction
will be problematic for databases with huge numbers of blobs.
The metadata TOC entries now have a "desc" string of "BLOB METADATA",
and their "defn" string is just a newline-separated list of blob OIDs.
The restore code has to generate creation commands, ALTER OWNER
commands, and drop commands (for --clean mode) from that. We would
need special-case code for ALTER OWNER and drop in any case, so the
alternative of keeping the "defn" as directly executable SQL code
for creation wouldn't buy much, and it seems like it'd bloat the
archive to little purpose.
Since we require the blobs of a metadata group to share the same ACL,
we can furthermore store only one copy of that ACL, and then make
pg_restore regenerate the appropriate commands for each blob. This
saves space in the dump file not only by removing duplicative SQL
command strings, but by not needing a separate TOC entry for each
blob's ACL. In turn, that reduces client-side memory requirements for
handling many blobs.
ACL TOC entries that need this special processing are labeled as
"ACL"/"LARGE OBJECTS nnn..nnn". If we have a blob with a unique ACL,
continue to label it as "ACL"/"LARGE OBJECT nnn". We don't actually
have to make such a distinction, but it saves a few cycles during
restore for the easy case, and it seems like a good idea to not change
the TOC contents unnecessarily.
The data TOC entries ("BLOBS") are exactly the same as before,
except that now there can be more than one, so we'd better give them
identifying tag strings.
Also, commit c0d5be5d6 put the new BLOB metadata TOC entries into
SECTION_PRE_DATA, which perhaps is defensible in some ways, but
it's a rather odd choice considering that we go out of our way to
treat blobs as data. Moreover, because parallel restore handles
the PRE_DATA section serially, this means we'd only get part of the
parallelism speedup we could hope for. Move these entries into
SECTION_DATA, letting us parallelize the lo_create calls not just the
data loading when there are many blobs. Add dependencies to ensure
that we won't try to load data for a blob we've not yet created.
As this stands, we still generate a separate TOC entry for any comment
or security label attached to a blob. I feel comfortable in believing
that comments and security labels on blobs are rare, so this patch
should be enough to get most of the useful TOC compression for blobs.
We have to bump the archive file format version number, since existing
versions of pg_restore wouldn't know they need to do something special
for BLOB METADATA, plus they aren't going to work correctly with
multiple BLOBS entries or multiple-large-object ACL entries.
The directory and tar-file format handlers need some work
for multiple BLOBS entries: they used to hard-wire the file name
as "blobs.toc", which is replaced here with "blobs_<dumpid>.toc".
The 002_pg_dump.pl test script also knows about that and requires
minor updates. (I had to drop the test for manually-compressed
blobs.toc files with LZ4, because lz4's obtuse command line
design requires explicit specification of the output file name
which seems impractical here. I don't think we're losing any
useful test coverage thereby; that test stanza seems completely
duplicative with the gzip and zstd cases anyway.)
In passing, centralize management of the lo_buf used to hold data
while restoring blobs. The code previously had each format handler
create lo_buf, which seems rather pointless given that the format
handlers all make it the same way. Moreover, the format handlers
never use lo_buf directly, making this setup a failure from a
separation-of-concerns standpoint. Let's move the responsibility into
pg_backup_archiver.c, which is the only module concerned with lo_buf.
The reason to do this in this patch is that it allows a centralized
fix for the now-false assumption that we never restore blobs in
parallel. Also, get rid of dead code in DropLOIfExists: it's been a
long time since we had any need to be able to restore to a pre-9.0
server.

The "pltargs" variable wasn't marked volatile, which makes it unsafe
to change its value within the PG_TRY block. It looks like the worst
outcome would be to fail to release a refcount on Py_None during an

Still, it's a bug. A one-liner fix could be to mark pltargs volatile,

Handle dead branches of aborted HOT chains outside heap_prune_chain()
as a separate phase. This simplifies the logic in heap_prune_chain(),
as well as allowing us to clean up more RECENTLY_DEAD -> DEAD chains.
To accomplish this efficiently, partition tuples into HOT and non-HOT
while first collecting visibility information for each tuple in
heap_page_prune(). Then call heap_prune_chain() only on potential
chain members. Then mop up the leftover HOT tuples afterwards.
As part of this, keep track of which items on page have already been
processed, in 'processed' array. This replaces the 'marked' array
which was only set for tuples marked for removal or redirection. The
'processed' array is updated also for items that are left unchanged,
when we conclude that an item can be left unchanged. At the end of
pruning, every item on the page should be marked as processed in the
array; an assertion is added for that.

Keep track of the number of deleted tuples in PruneState and record this
information when recording a tuple dead, unused or redirected. This
removes a special case from the traversal and chain processing logic as
well as setting a precedent of recording the impact of prune actions in
the record functions themselves. This paradigm will be used in future
commits which move tracking of additional statistics on pruning actions
from lazy_scan_prune() to heap_prune_chain().
Simplify heap_prune_chain()'s chain traversal logic by handling each
case explicitly. That is, do not attempt to share code when processing
different types of chains. For each category of chain, process it
specifically and procedurally: first handling the root, then any
intervening tuples, and, finally, the end of the chain.
While we are at it, add a few new comments to heap_prune_chain()
clarifying some special cases involving RECENTLY_DEAD tuples.

Pass 'page', 'blockno' and 'maxoff' to heap_prune_chain() as
arguments, so that it doesn't need to fetch them from the buffer. This
saves a few cycles per chain.
Remove the "if (off_loc != NULL)" checks, and require the caller to
pass a non-NULL 'off_loc'. Pass a pointer to a dummy local variable
when it's not needed. Those checks are cheap, but it's still better to
avoid them in the per-chain loops when we can do so easily.
The CPU time saving from these changes are hardly measurable, but
fewer instructions is good anyway, so why not. I spotted the potential
for these while reviewing Melanie Plageman's patch set to combine

just mask off the bytes we need and hash them immediately. The mask can

Allow use of BeginInternalSubTransaction() in parallel mode, so long
as the subtransaction doesn't attempt to acquire an XID or increment
the command counter. Given those restrictions, the other parallel
processes don't need to know about the subtransaction at all, so
this should be safe. The benefit is that it allows subtransactions
intended for error recovery, such as pl/pgsql exception blocks,
to be used in PARALLEL SAFE functions.
Another reason for doing this is that the API of
BeginInternalSubTransaction() doesn't allow reporting failure.
pl/python for one, and perhaps other PLs, copes very poorly with an
error longjmp out of BeginInternalSubTransaction(). The headline
feature of this patch removes the only easily-triggerable failure
case within that function. There remain some resource-exhaustion
and similar cases, which we now deal with by promoting them to FATAL
errors, so that callers need not try to clean up. (It is likely
that such errors would leave us with corrupted transaction state
inside xact.c, making recovery difficult if not impossible anyway.)
Although this work started because of a report of a pl/python crash,
we're not going to do anything about that in the back branches.
Back-patching this particular fix is obviously not very wise.
While we could contemplate some narrower band-aid, pl/python is
already an untrusted language, so it seems okay to classify this
as a "so don't do that" case.

Previously, the behavior of TidStoreCreate() was inconsistent between
local and shared TidStore instances in terms of memory limitation. For
local TidStore, a memory context was created with initial and maximum
memory block sizes, as well as a minimum memory context size, based on
the specified max_bytes values. However, for shared TidStore, the
provided DSA area was used for TID storage. Although commit bb952c8c8b
allowed specifying the initial and maximum DSA segment sizes, callers
would have needed to clamp their own limits, which was not consistent
and user-friendly.
With this commit, when creating a shared TidStore, a dedicated DSA
area is created for TID storage instead of using a provided DSA
area. The initial and maximum DSA segment sizes are chosen based on
the specified max_bytes. Other processes can attach to the shared
TidStore using the handle of the created DSA returned by the new
TidStoreGetDSA() function and the DSA pointer returned by
TidStoreGetHandle(). The created DSA has the same lifetime as the
shared TidStore and is deleted when all processes detach from it.
To improve clarity, the TidStoreCreate() function has been divided
into two separate functions: TidStoreCreateLocal() and
TidStoreCreateShared().

platform or deployment model compatibility rather than client
compatibility.

Buildfarm member avocet has shown a plan change by switching the
finalize aggregate stage to use a GroupAggregate rather than a
HashAggregate. This is consistent with autovacuum having triggered on
the table, per analysis by Alexander Lakhin.
Fix this by disabling autovacuum on the table.

Backpatch-through: 16, where this test was added.
This adds 3 new variants of the random() function:
random(min integer, max integer) returns integer
random(min bigint, max bigint) returns bigint
random(min numeric, max numeric) returns numeric
Each returns a random number x in the range min <= x <= max.
For the numeric function, the number of digits after the decimal point
is equal to the number of digits that "min" or "max" has after the
decimal point, whichever has more.
The main entry points for these functions are in a new C source file.
The existing random(), random_normal(), and setseed() functions are
moved there too, so that they can all share the same PRNG state, which
is kept private to that file.

After the upgrade, the failed test was ensuring that the changes made on
the publisher should be replicated to the subscriber. We missed waiting
for one of the subscriptions to catch up.
