Commit 59702716 added transition table support to PL/pgsql so that
SQL queries in trigger functions could access those transient
tables. In order to provide the same level of support for PL/perl,
PL/python and PL/tcl, refactor the relevant code into a new
function SPI_register_trigger_data. Call the new function in the
trigger handler of all four PLs, and document it as a public SPI
function so that authors of out-of-tree PLs can do the same.
Also get rid of a second QueryEnvironment object that was
maintained by PL/pgsql. That was previously used to deal with
cursors, but the same approach wasn't appropriate for PLs that are
less tangled up with core code. Instead, have SPI_cursor_open
install the connection's current QueryEnvironment, as already
happens for SPI_execute_plan.
While in the docs, remove the note that transition tables were only
supported in C and PL/pgSQL triggers, and correct some ommissions.

Instead of
plan = plpy.prepare(...)
res = plpy.execute(plan, ...)
you can now write
plan = plpy.prepare(...)
res = plan.execute(...)
or even
res = plpy.prepare(...).execute(...)
and similarly for the cursor() method.
This is more in object oriented style, and makes the hybrid nature of
the existing execute() function less confusing.

This replaces the old, recursive tree-walk based evaluation, with
non-recursive, opcode dispatch based, expression evaluation.
Projection is now implemented as part of expression evaluation.
This both leads to significant performance improvements, and makes
future just-in-time compilation of expressions easier.
The speed gains primarily come from:
- non-recursive implementation reduces stack usage / overhead
- simple sub-expressions are implemented with a single jump, without
function calls
- sharing some state between different sub-expressions
- reduced amount of indirect/hard to predict memory accesses by laying
out operation metadata sequentially; including the avoidance of
nearly all of the previously used linked lists
- more code has been moved to expression initialization, avoiding
constant re-checks at evaluation time
Future just-in-time compilation (JIT) has become easier, as
demonstrated by released patches intended to be merged in a later
release, for primarily two reasons: Firstly, due to a stricter split
between expression initialization and evaluation, less code has to be
handled by the JIT. Secondly, due to the non-recursive nature of the
generated "instructions", less performance-critical code-paths can
easily be shared between interpreted and compiled evaluation.
The new framework allows for significant future optimizations. E.g.:
- basic infrastructure for to later reduce the per executor-startup
overhead of expression evaluation, by caching state in prepared
statements. That'd be helpful in OLTPish scenarios where
initialization overhead is measurable.
- optimizing the generated "code". A number of proposals for potential
work has already been made.
- optimizing the interpreter. Similarly a number of proposals have
been made here too.
The move of logic into the expression initialization step leads to some
backward-incompatible changes:
- Function permission checks are now done during expression
initialization, whereas previously they were done during
execution. In edge cases this can lead to errors being raised that
previously wouldn't have been, e.g. a NULL array being coerced to a
different array type previously didn't perform checks.
- The set of domain constraints to be checked, is now evaluated once
during expression initialization, previously it was re-built
every time a domain check was evaluated. For normal queries this
doesn't change much, but e.g. for plpgsql functions, which caches
ExprStates, the old set could stick around longer. The behavior
around might still change.

In SQL, the ability to use parallel query was previous contingent on
fcache->readonly_func, which is only set for non-volatile functions;
but the volatility of a function has no bearing on whether queries
inside it can use parallelism. Remove that condition.
SPI_execute and SPI_execute_with_args always run the plan just once,
though not necessarily to completion. Given the changes in commit
691b8d5928, it's sensible to pass
CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK here, so do that. This improves access to
parallelism for any caller that uses these functions to execute
queries. Such callers include plperl, plpython, pltcl, and plpgsql,
though it's not the case that they all use these functions
exclusively.
In plpgsql, allow parallel query for plain SELECT queries (as
opposed to PERFORM, which already worked) and for plain expressions
(which probably won't go through the executor at all, because they
will likely be simple expressions, but if they do then this helps).

Commit 7aea8e4f2d allowed a parallel
plan to be generated when for a RETURN QUERY or RETURN QUERY EXECUTE
statement in a PL/pgsql block, but that's a bad idea because plplgsql
asks the executor for 50 rows at a time. That means that we'll always
be running serially a plan that was intended for parallel execution,
which is not a good idea. Fix by not requesting a parallel plan from
the outset.
Per discussion, back-patch to 9.6. There is a slight risk that, due
to optimizer error, somebody could have a case where the parallel plan
executed serially is actually faster than the supposedly-best serial
plan, but the consensus seems to be that that's not sufficient
justification for leaving 9.6 unpatched.

This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the
previous commit. Specific decisions:
- Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as
prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt
maintainers of non-core text search code will notice.
- Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the
same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the
function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an
exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return
values of SendFunctionCall().
- Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large
for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do
not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment.
- For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in
memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside
GBT_VARKEY, on disk.
- For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They
incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple
credible implementation strategies to consider.
We have a project policy that every .c file should start by including
postgres.h, postgres_fe.h, or c.h as appropriate; and then there is no
need for any .h file to explicitly include any of these. (The core
reason for this policy is to make it easy to verify that pg_config_os.h
is included before any system headers such as <stdio.h>; without that,
we have portability issues on some platforms due to variation in largefile
options across different modules in the backend. Also, if .h files were
responsible for choosing which of these key headers to include, .h files
that need to be includable in either frontend or backend compiles would be
in trouble.)
plpgsql was blithely ignoring this policy, so whack it upside the head
until it complies. I also chose to standardize on including plpgsql's
own .h files after all core-system headers that it pulls in. That
could've been done either way, but this way seems saner.

Define GUCs pltcl.start_proc and pltclu.start_proc. When set to a
nonempty value at the time a new Tcl interpreter is created, the
parameterless pltcl or pltclu function named by the GUC is called to
allow user-controlled initialization to occur within the interpreter.
This is modeled on plv8's start_proc parameter, and also has much in
common with plperl's on_init feature. It allows users to fully
replace the "modules" feature that was removed in commit 817f2a586.
Since an initializer function could subvert later Tcl code in nearly
arbitrary ways, mark both GUCs as SUSET for now. It would be nice
to find a way to relax that someday; but the corresponding GUCs in
plperl are also SUSET, and there's not been much complaint.

PL/Tcl has long had a facility whereby Tcl code could be autoloaded from
a database table named "pltcl_modules". However, nobody is using it, as
evidenced by the recent discovery that it's never been fixed to work with
standard_conforming_strings turned on. Moreover, it's rather shaky from
a security standpoint, and the table design is very old and crufty (partly
because it dates from before we had TOAST). A final problem is that
because the table-population scripts depend on the Tcl client library
Pgtcl, which we removed from the core distribution in 2004, it's
impossible to create a self-contained regression test for the feature.
Rather than try to surmount these problems, let's just remove it.
A follow-on patch will provide a way to execute user-defined
initialization code, similar to features that exist in plperl and plv8.
With that, it will be possible to implement this feature or similar ones
entirely in userspace, which is where it belongs.

c.h #includes a number of core libc header files, such as <stdio.h>.
There's no point in re-including these after having read postgres.h,
postgres_fe.h, or c.h; so remove code that did so.
While at it, also fix some places that were ignoring our standard pattern
of "include postgres[_fe].h, then system header files, then other Postgres
header files". While there's not any great magic in doing it that way
rather than system headers last, it's silly to have just a few files
deviating from the general pattern. (But I didn't attempt to enforce this
globally, only in files I was touching anyway.)
I'd be the first to say that this is mostly compulsive neatnik-ism,
but over time it might save enough compile cycles to be useful.
There is no specific reason for this right now, but keeping support for
old Python versions around indefinitely increases the maintenance
burden. The oldest supported Python version is now Python 2.4, which is
still shipped in RHEL/CentOS 5 by default.
In configure, add a check for the required Python version and give a
friendly error message for an old version, instead of relying on an
obscure build error later on.
One case in the PL/Tcl tests is observed to fail on RHEL5 with a Turkish
time zone setting. It's not clear if this is an old Tcl bug or something
odd about the zone data, but in any case that test is meant to see if the
Tcl [clock] command works at all, not what its corner-case behaviors are.
Therefore we have no need to test exactly which week a Sunday midnight is
considered to fall into. Probe the following Tuesday instead.

When I wrote commit ab1f0c822, I really missed the castNode() macro that
Peter E. had proposed shortly before. This back-fills the uses I would
have put it to. It's probably not all that significant, but there are
more assertions here than there were before, and conceivably they will
help catch any bugs associated with those representation changes.
I left behind a number of usages like "(Query *) copyObject(query_var)".
Those could have been converted as well, but Peter has proposed another
notational improvement that would handle copyObject cases automatically,
so I let that be for now.
This appears to be necessary to fix a failure seen on buildfarm member

This patch makes several changes that improve the consistency of
representation of lists of statements. It's always been the case
that the output of parse analysis is a list of Query nodes, whatever
the types of the individual statements in the list. This patch brings
similar consistency to the outputs of raw parsing and planning steps:
* The output of raw parsing is now always a list of RawStmt nodes;
the statement-type-dependent nodes are one level down from that.
* The output of pg_plan_queries() is now always a list of PlannedStmt
nodes, even for utility statements. In the case of a utility statement,
"planning" just consists of wrapping a CMD_UTILITY PlannedStmt around
the utility node. This list representation is now used in Portal and
CachedPlan plan lists, replacing the former convention of intermixing
PlannedStmts with bare utility-statement nodes.
Now, every list of statements has a consistent head-node type depending
on how far along it is in processing. This allows changing many places
that formerly used generic "Node *" pointers to use a more specific
pointer type, thus reducing the number of IsA() tests and casts needed,
as well as improving code clarity.
Also, the post-parse-analysis representation of DECLARE CURSOR is changed
so that it looks more like EXPLAIN, PREPARE, etc. That is, the contained
SELECT remains a child of the DeclareCursorStmt rather than getting flipped
around to be the other way. It's now true for both Query and PlannedStmt
that utilityStmt is non-null if and only if commandType is CMD_UTILITY.
That allows simplifying a lot of places that were testing both fields.
(I think some of those were just defensive programming, but in many places,
it was actually necessary to avoid confusing DECLARE CURSOR with SELECT.)
Because PlannedStmt carries a canSetTag field, we're also able to get rid
of some ad-hoc rules about how to reconstruct canSetTag for a bare utility
statement; specifically, the assumption that a utility is canSetTag if and
only if it's the only one in its list. While I see no near-term need for
relaxing that restriction, it's nice to get rid of the ad-hocery.
The API of ProcessUtility() is changed so that what it's passed is the
wrapper PlannedStmt not just the bare utility statement. This will affect
all users of ProcessUtility_hook, but the changes are pretty trivial; see
the affected contrib modules for examples of the minimum change needed.
(Most compilers should give pointer-type-mismatch warnings for uncorrected
code.)
There's also a change in the API of ExplainOneQuery_hook, to pass through
cursorOptions instead of expecting hook functions to know what to pick.
This is needed because of the DECLARE CURSOR changes, but really should
have been done in 9.6; it's unlikely that any extant hook functions
know about using CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK.
Finally, teach gram.y to save statement boundary locations in RawStmt
nodes, and pass those through to Query and PlannedStmt nodes. This allows
more intelligent handling of cases where a source query string contains
multiple statements. This patch doesn't actually do anything with the
information, but a follow-on patch will. (Passing this information through
cleanly is the true motivation for these changes; while I think this is all
good cleanup, it's unlikely we'd have bothered without this end goal.)
catversion bump because addition of location fields to struct Query
affects stored rules.
This patch is by me, but it owes a good deal to Fabien Coelho who did
a lot of preliminary work on the problem, and also reviewed the patch.

This fixes a portability issue introduced by commit 961bed020: with a

errorCode won't be provided, leading to a failure of the unset command.
I added -nocomplain to the unset commands for filename and lineno too, just

(BTW, -nocomplain is new in Tcl 8.4, but fortunately we dropped support
for pre-8.4 Tcl some time ago.)

We can't throw elog(ERROR) out of a Tcl command procedure; we have
to catch the error and return TCL_ERROR to the Tcl interpreter.
pltcl_returnnext failed to meet this requirement, so that errors
detected by pltcl_build_tuple_result or other functions called here
led to longjmp'ing out of the Tcl interpreter and thereby leaving it
in a bad state. Use the existing subtransaction support to prevent
that. Oversight in commit 26abb50c4, found more or less accidentally
by the buildfarm thanks to the tests added in 961bed020.

There's no good reason why plpgsql's GET DIAGNOSTICS statement can't
support an array element as target variable, since the execution code
already uses the generic exec_assign_value() function to assign to it.
Hence, refactor the grammar to allow that, by making getdiag_target
depend on the assign_var production.
Ideally we'd also let a cursor_variable expand to an element of a
refcursor[] array, but that's substantially harder since those statements
also have to handle bound-cursor-variable cases. For now, just make sure
the reported error is sensible, ie "cursor variable must be a simple
variable" not "variable must be of type cursor or refcursor". The latter
was quite confusing from the user's viewpoint, since what he wrote
satisfies the claimed restriction.

PLy_generate_spi_exceptions neglected to do Py_INCREF on the new exception
objects, evidently supposing that PyModule_AddObject would do that --- but
it doesn't. This left us in a situation where a Python garbage collection
cycle could result in deletion of exception object(s), causing server
crashes or wrong answers if the exception objects are used later in the
session.
In addition, PLy_generate_spi_exceptions didn't bother to test for
a null result from PyErr_NewException, which at best is inconsistent
with the code in PLy_add_exceptions. And PLy_add_exceptions, while it
did do Py_INCREF on the exceptions it makes, waited to do that till
after some PyModule_AddObject calls, creating a similar risk for
failure if garbage collection happened within those calls.
To fix, refactor to have just one piece of code that creates an
exception object and adds it to the spiexceptions module, bumping the
refcount first.
Also, let's add an additional refcount to represent the pointer we're
going to store in a C global variable or hash table. This should only
matter if the user does something weird like delete the spiexceptions
Python module, but lack of paranoia has caused us enough problems in
PL/Python already.
The fact that PyModule_AddObject doesn't do a Py_INCREF of its own
explains the need for the Py_INCREF added in commit 4c966d920, so we
can improve the comment about that; also, this means we really want
to do that before not after the PyModule_AddObject call.
The missing Py_INCREF in PLy_generate_spi_exceptions was reported and
diagnosed by Rafa de la Torre; the other fixes by me. Back-patch

The idea behind SPI_push was to allow transitioning back into an
"unconnected" state when a SPI-using procedure calls unrelated code that
might or might not invoke SPI. That sounds good, but in practice the only
thing it does for us is to catch cases where a called SPI-using function
forgets to call SPI_connect --- which is a highly improbable failure mode,
since it would be exposed immediately by direct testing of said function.
As against that, we've had multiple bugs induced by forgetting to call
SPI_push/SPI_pop around code that might invoke SPI-using functions; these
are much harder to catch and indeed have gone undetected for years in some
cases. And we've had to band-aid around some problems of this ilk by
introducing conditional push/pop pairs in some places, which really kind
of defeats the purpose altogether; if we can't draw bright lines between
connected and unconnected code, what's the point?
Hence, get rid of SPI_push[_conditional], SPI_pop[_conditional], and the
underlying state variable _SPI_curid. It turns out SPI_restore_connection
can go away too, which is a nice side benefit since it was never more than
a kluge. Provide no-op macros for the deleted functions so as to avoid an
API break for external modules.
A side effect of this removal is that SPI_palloc and allied functions no
longer permit being called when unconnected; they'll throw an error
instead. The apparent usefulness of the previous behavior was a mirage
as well, because it was depended on by only a few places (which I fixed in
preceding commits), and it posed a risk of allocations being unexpectedly
long-lived if someone forgot a SPI_push call.

Invent a new function heap_modify_tuple_by_cols() that is functionally
equivalent to SPI_modifytuple except that it always allocates its result
by simple palloc. I chose however to make the API details a bit more
like heap_modify_tuple: pass a tupdesc rather than a Relation, and use
bool convention for the isnull array.
Use this function in place of SPI_modifytuple at all call sites where the
intended behavior is to allocate in current context. (There actually are
only two call sites left that depend on the old behavior, which makes me
wonder if we should just drop this function rather than keep it.)
This new function is easier to use than heap_modify_tuple() for purposes
of replacing a single column (or, really, any fixed number of columns).
There are a number of places where it would simplify the code to change
over, but I resisted that temptation for the moment ... everywhere except
in plpgsql's exec_assign_value(); changing that might offer some small
performance benefit, so I did it.
This is on the way to removing SPI_push/SPI_pop, but it seems like
good code cleanup in its own right.
Discussion: <9633.1478552022@sss.pgh.pa.us>
There's basically no scenario where it's sensible for this to match
dropped columns, so put a test for dropped-ness into SPI_fnumber()
itself, and excise the test from the small number of callers that
were paying attention to the case. (Most weren't :-(.)
In passing, normalize tests at call sites: always reject attnum <= 0
if we're disallowing system columns. Previously there was a mixture
of "< 0" and "<= 0" tests. This makes no practical difference since
SPI_fnumber() never returns 0, but I'm feeling pedantic today.
Also, in the places that are actually live user-facing code and not
legacy cruft, distinguish "column not found" from "can't handle
system column".
Per discussion with Jim Nasby; thi supersedes his original patch
that just changed the behavior at one call site.

The code here would need some change anyway given planned change in
SPI_modifytuple semantics, since this executes after we've exited the
SPI environment. But really it's better to just use heap_modify_tuple.
While at it, normalize use of SPI_fnumber: make error messages distinguish
no-such-column from can't-set-system-column, and remove test for deleted
column which is going to migrate into SPI_fnumber. The lack of a check
for system column names is actually a pre-existing bug here, and might

The code's actually shorter this way, and this avoids depending on some
rather indirect reasoning about why the temporary arrays can't be overrun.
(I think the old code is safe, as long as Perl hashes can't contain
duplicate keys; but with this way we don't need that assumption, only
the assumption that SPI_fnumber doesn't return an out-of-range attnum.)

Use Tcl_ListObjGetElements instead of Tcl_SplitList. Aside from being
possibly more efficient in its own right, this means we are no longer
responsible for freeing a malloc'd result array, so we can get rid of
a PG_TRY/PG_CATCH block.
Use heap_form_tuple instead of SPI_modifytuple. We don't need the
extra generality of the latter, since we're always replacing all
columns. Nor do we need its memory-context-munging, since at this
point we're already out of the SPI environment.
Per comparison of this code to tuple-building code submitted by Jim Nasby.
I've abandoned the thought of merging the two cases into a single routine,
but we may as well make the older code simpler and faster where we can.
For a very long time, pltcl's spi_exec and spi_execp commands have had
a behavior of storing the current row number as an element of output
arrays, but this was never documented. Fix that.
For an equally long time, pltcl_trigger_handler had a behavior of silently
ignoring ".tupno" as an output column name, evidently so that the result
of spi_exec could be used directly as a trigger result tuple. Not sure
how useful that really is, but in any case it's bad that it would break
attempts to use ".tupno" as an actual column name. We can fix it by not
checking for ".tupno" until after we check for a column name match. This
comports with the effective behavior of spi_exec[p] that ".tupno" is only
magic when you don't have an actual column named that.
In passing, wordsmith the description of returning modified tuples from
a pltcl trigger.
Noted while working on Jim Nasby's patch to support composite results
from pltcl. The inability to return trigger tuples using ".tupno" as
a column name is a bug, so back-patch to all supported branches.
We must do this in case the expression evaluation results in calling
another plpgsql function (or, really, anything using SPI). I missed
the need for this when I converted exec_cast_value() from doing a
simple InputFunctionCall() to doing ExecEvalExpr() in commit 1345cc67b.
There is a SPI_push_conditional in InputFunctionCall(), so that there
was no bug before that.

for tuples and various kinds of strings, only treat Python lists as
dimensions. The PyBytes_Check() function used previously is only available
on Python 2.6 and newer, and it was a bit fiddly anyway. The list of
exceptions would require adjustment if Python got a new kind of a sequence
similar to bytes/unicodes/strings, so only checking for Lists seems more
future-proof. The documentation only mentioned using Lists, so this is
closer to what was documented, anyway.
This should fix the buildfarm failures on systems building with Python 2.5,
although I don't have Python 2.5 installed myself to test with.
