Add -Wimplicit-fallthrough to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS
Use it at level 4, a bit more restrictive than the default level, and
tweak our commanding comments to FALLTHROUGH.

(However, leave zic.c alone, since it's external code; to avoid the
warnings that would appear there, change CFLAGS for that file in the
Makefile.)

ExecReScanIncrementalSort was resetting bounded=false, which means the
optimization would be disabled on all rescans. This happens because
ExecSetTupleBound is called before the rescan, not after it.

Tomas Vondra c442722648 Fix handling of REWIND/MARK/BACKWARD in incremental sort
The executor flags were not handled entirely correctly, although the
bugs were mostly harmless and it was mostly comment inaccuracy. We don't
need to strip any of the flags for child nodes.

Incremental sort does not support backward scans of mark/restore, so
MARK/BACKWARDS flags should not be possible. So we simply ensure this
using an assert, and we don't bother removing them when initializing
the child node.

With REWIND it's a bit less clear - incremental sort does not support
REWIND, but there is no way to signal this - it's legal to just ignore
the flag. We however continue passing the flag to child nodes, because
they might be useful to leverage that.

Amit Kapila 69bfaf2e1d Change the display of WAL usage statistics in Explain.
In commit 33e05f89c5, we have added the option to display WAL usage
statistics in Explain and auto_explain.  The display format used two spaces
between each field which is inconsistent with Buffer usage statistics which
is using one space between each field.  Change the format to make WAL usage
statistics consistent with Buffer usage statistics.

This commit also changed the usage of "full page writes" to
"full page images" for WAL usage statistics to make it consistent with

Andres Freund 299298bc87 Fix transient memory leak for SRFs in FROM.
In a9c35cf85c I changed ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() to dynamically
allocate the FunctionCallInfo used to call the SRF. Unfortunately I
did not account for the fact that the surrounding memory context has
query lifetime, leading to a leak till the end of the query.

In most cases the leak is fairly inconsequential, but if the
FunctionScan is done many times in the query, the leak can add
up. This happens e.g. if the function scan is on the inner side of a
nested loop, due to a lateral join.
EXPLAIN SELECT sum(f) FROM generate_series(1, 100000000) g(i), generate_series(i, i+1) f;
quickly shows the leak.

Instead of explicitly freeing the FunctionCallInfo it seems better to
make sure all the per-set temporary state in
ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() is cleaned up wholesale. Currently
that's probably just the FunctionCallInfo allocation, but since
there's some initialization work, and since there's already an
appropriate context, this seems like a more robust approach.

Tom Lane 5836d32655 Fix minor violations of FunctionCallInvoke usage protocol.
Working on commit 1c455078b led me to check through FunctionCallInvoke
call sites to see if every one was being honest about (a) making sure
that fcinfo.isnull is initially false, and (b) checking its state after
the call.  Sure enough, I found some violations.

The main one is that finalize_partialaggregate re-used serialfn_fcinfo
without resetting isnull, even though it clearly intends to cater for
serialfns that return NULL.  There would only be an issue with a
non-strict serialfn, since it's unlikely that a serialfn would return
NULL for non-null input.  We have no non-strict serialfns in core, and
there may be none in the wild either, which would account for the lack
of complaints.  Still, it's clearly wrong, so back-patch that fix to
9.6 where finalize_partialaggregate was introduced.

Also, arrayfuncs.c and rowtypes.c contained various callers that were
not bothering to check for result nulls.  While what's being called is
a comparison or hash function that probably *shouldn't* return null,
that's a lousy excuse for not having any check at all.  There are
existing places that just Assert(!fcinfo->isnull) in comparable
situations, so I added that to the places that were calling btree
comparison or hash support functions.  In the places calling
boolean-returning equality functions, it's quite cheap to have them
treat isnull as FALSE, so make those places do that.  Also remove some
"locfcinfo->isnull = false" assignments that are unnecessary given the
assumption that no previous call returned null.  These changes seem like
mostly neatnik-ism or debugging support, so I didn't back-patch.

In some corner cases, this could also lead to corrupted values being

Users who are concerned that they are affected by this should first
upgrade and then perform a base backup of their database and restore onto

Tom Lane 5c27bce7f3 Clear dangling pointer to avoid bogus EXPLAIN printout in a corner case.
ExecReScanHashJoin will destroy the join's hash table if it expects
that the inner relation will produce different rows on rescan.
Up to now it's not bothered to clear the additional pointer to that
hash table that exists in the child HashState node.  However, it's
possible for the query to terminate without building a fresh hash
table (this happens if the outer relation is found to be empty
during the final rescan).  So we can end with a dangling pointer
to a deleted hash table.  That was harmless originally, but since
9.0 EXPLAIN ANALYZE has used that pointer to print hash table
statistics.  In debug builds this reproducibly results in garbage
statistics.  In non-debug builds there's frequently no ill effects,
but in principle one could get wrong EXPLAIN ANALYZE output, or
perhaps even a crash if free() has released the hashtable memory
back to the OS.

To fix, just make sure we clear the additional pointer when destroying
the hash table.  In problematic cases, EXPLAIN ANALYZE will then print
no hashtable statistics (reverting to its pre-9.0 behavior).  This isn't
ideal, but since the problem manifests only in unusual corner cases,
it's hard to justify taking any risks to do better in the back
branches.  A follow-on patch will improve matters in HEAD.

Tomas Vondra d2d8a229bc Implement Incremental Sort
Incremental Sort is an optimized variant of multikey sort for cases when
the input is already sorted by a prefix of the requested sort keys. For
example when the relation is already sorted by (key1, key2) and we need
to sort it by (key1, key2, key3) we can simply split the input rows into
groups having equal values in (key1, key2), and only sort/compare the
remaining column key3.

This has a number of benefits:

- Reduced memory consumption, because only a single group (determined by
  values in the sorted prefix) needs to be kept in memory. This may also
  eliminate the need to spill to disk.

- Lower startup cost, because Incremental Sort produce results after each
  prefix group, which is beneficial for plans where startup cost matters
  (like for example queries with LIMIT clause).

We consider both Sort and Incremental Sort, and decide based on costing.

The implemented algorithm operates in two different modes:

- Fetching a minimum number of tuples without check of equality on the
  prefix keys, and sorting on all columns when safe.

- Fetching all tuples for a single prefix group and then sorting by
  comparing only the remaining (non-prefix) keys.

We always start in the first mode, and employ a heuristic to switch into
the second mode if we believe it's beneficial - the goal is to minimize
the number of unnecessary comparions while keeping memory consumption
below work_mem.

This is a very old patch series. The idea was originally proposed by
Alexander Korotkov back in 2013, and then revived in 2017. In 2018 the
patch was taken over by James Coleman, who wrote and rewrote most of the
current code.

There were many reviewers/contributors since 2013 - I've done my best to
pick the most active ones, and listed them in this commit message.

percentage of overall WAL is due to full page writes.

In the future, we can extend this functionality to allow us to compute the
the exact amount of WAL data due to full page writes.

Pass the error location details (__FILE__, __LINE__, PG_FUNCNAME_MACRO)

errstart decides we're not going to emit anything.

Re-implement elog() as a trivial wrapper around ereport(), removing
the separate support infrastructure it used to have.  Aside from

that it can skip evaluation work if the message is not to be emitted.

Jeff Davis 1f39bce021 Disk-based Hash Aggregation.
While performing hash aggregation, track memory usage when adding new
groups to a hash table. If the memory usage exceeds work_mem, enter
"spill mode".

In spill mode, new groups are not created in the hash table(s), but
existing groups continue to be advanced if input tuples match. Tuples
that would cause a new group to be created are instead spilled to a
logical tape to be processed later.

The tuples are spilled in a partitioned fashion. When all tuples from
the outer plan are processed (either by advancing the group or
spilling the tuple), finalize and emit the groups from the hash
table. Then, create new batches of work from the spilled partitions,
and select one of the saved batches and process it (possibly spilling
recursively).

but we hadn't any organized coverage of the topic AFAICS.

Although that assertion's been wrong all along, it won't have any
effect in production builds, so I'm not bothering to back-patch.

Thomas Munro b09ff53667 Simplify the effective_io_concurrency setting.
The effective_io_concurrency GUC and equivalent tablespace option were
previously passed through a formula based on a theory about RAID
spindles and probabilities, to arrive at the number of pages to prefetch
in bitmap heap scans.  Tomas Vondra, Andres Freund and others argued
that it was anachronistic and hard to justify, and commit 558a9165e0
already started down the path of bypassing it in new code.  We agreed to
drop that logic and use the value directly.

For the default setting of 1, there is no change in effect.  Higher
settings can be converted from the old meaning to the new with:

  select round(sum(OLD / n::float)) from generate_series(1, OLD) s(n);

We might want to consider renaming the GUC before the next release given
the change in meaning, but it's not clear that many users had set it
very carefully anyway.  That decision is deferred for now.

Peter Eisentraut 3c173a53a8 Remove utils/acl.h from catalog/objectaddress.h
The need for this was removed by
8b9e9644dc.

A number of files now need to include utils/acl.h or
parser/parse_node.h explicitly where they previously got it indirectly
somehow.

Since parser/parse_node.h already includes nodes/parsenodes.h, the
latter is then removed where the former was added.  Also, remove
nodes/pg_list.h from objectaddress.h, since that's included via
nodes/parsenodes.h.

Jeff Davis c954d49046 Extend ExecBuildAggTrans() to support a NULL pointer check.
Optionally push a step to check for a NULL pointer to the pergroup
state.

This will be important for disk-based hash aggregation in combination
with grouping sets. When memory limits are reached, a given tuple may
find its per-group state for some grouping sets but not others. For
the former, it advances the per-group state as normal; for the latter,
it skips evaluation and the calling code will have to spill the tuple
and reprocess it in a later batch.

Add the NULL check as a separate expression step because in some
common cases it's not needed.

Tom Lane 3ed2005ff5 Introduce macros for typalign and typstorage constants.
Our usual practice for "poor man's enum" catalog columns is to define
macros for the possible values and use those, not literal constants,
in C code.  But for some reason lost in the mists of time, this was
never done for typalign/attalign or typstorage/attstorage.  It's never
too late to make it better though, so let's do that.

The reason I got interested in this right now is the need to duplicate
some uses of the TYPSTORAGE constants in an upcoming ALTER TYPE patch.
But in general, this sort of change aids greppability and readability,
so it's a good idea even without any specific motivation.

I may have missed a few places that could be converted, and it's even
more likely that pending patches will re-introduce some hard-coded
references.  But that's not fatal --- there's no expectation that
we'd actually change any of these values.  We can clean up stragglers
over time.

Alvaro Herrera 2f9661311b
Represent command completion tags as structs
The backend was using strings to represent command tags and doing string
comparisons in multiple places, but that's slow and unhelpful.  Create a
new command list with a supporting structure to use instead; this is
stored in a tag-list-file that can be tailored to specific purposes with
a caller-definable C macro, similar to what we do for WAL resource
managers.  The first first such uses are a new CommandTag enum and a
CommandTagBehavior struct.

Replace numerous occurrences of char *completionTag with a
QueryCompletion struct so that the code no longer stores information
about completed queries in a cstring.  Only at the last moment, in
EndCommand(), does this get converted to a string.

EventTriggerCacheItem no longer holds an array of palloc’d tag strings
in sorted order, but rather just a Bitmapset over the CommandTags.

Tom Lane 58c47ccfff Correctly re-use hash tables in buildSubPlanHash().
Commit 356687bd8 omitted to remove leftover code for destroying
a hashed subplan's hash tables, with the result that the tables
were always rebuilt not reused; this leads to severe memory
leakage if a hashed subplan is re-executed enough times.
Moreover, the code for reusing the hashnulls table had a typo
that would have made it do the wrong thing if it were reached.

Looking at the code coverage report shows severe under-coverage
of the potential callers of ResetTupleHashTable, so add some test
cases that exercise them.

Andres Freund 2742c45080 expression eval: Reduce number of steps for agg transition invocations.
Do so by combining the various steps that are part of aggregate
transition function invocation into one larger step. As some of the
current steps are only necessary for some aggregates, have one variant
of the aggregate transition step for each possible combination.

To avoid further manual copies of code in the different transition
step implementations, move most of the code into helper functions
marked as "always inline".

The benefit of this change is an increase in performance when
aggregating lots of rows. This comes in part due to the reduced number
of indirect jumps due to the reduced number of steps, and in part by
reducing redundant setup code across steps. This mainly benefits
interpreted execution, but the code generated by JIT is also improved
a bit.

As a nice side-effect it also ends up making the code a bit simpler.

A small additional optimization is removing the need to set
aggstate->curaggcontext before calling ExecAggInitGroup, choosing to
instead passign curaggcontext as an argument. It was, in contrast to
other aggregate related functions, only needed to fetch a memory
context to copy the transition value into.

Fujii Masao cb5b28613d Fix bug in Tid scan.
Commit 147e3722f7 changed Tid scan so that it calls table_beginscan()
and uses the scan option for seq scan. This change caused two issues.

(1) The change caused Tid scan to take a predicate lock on the entire
       relation in serializable transaction even when relation-level
       lock is not necessary. This could lead to an unexpected
       serialization error.

(2) The change caused Tid scan to increment the number of seq_scan
       in pg_stat_*_tables views even though it's not seq scan. This
       could confuse the users.

This commit adds the scan option for Tid scan and makes Tid scan
use it, to avoid those issues.

Back-patch to v12, where the bug was introduced.
