Tom Lane 877cdf11ea Mop-up for letting VOID-returning SQL functions end with a SELECT.
Part of the intent in commit fd1a421fe was to allow SQL functions that are
declared to return VOID to contain anything, including an unrelated final
SELECT, the same as SQL-language procedures can.  However, the planner's
inlining logic didn't get that memo.  Fix it, and add some regression tests
covering this area, since evidently we had none.

In passing, clean up some typos in comments in create_function_3.sql,
and get rid of its none-too-safe assumption that DROP CASCADE notice
output is immutably ordered.

Per report from Prabhat Sahu.

Robert Haas 1466bcfa4a Split create_grouping_paths into degenerate and non-degenerate cases.
There's no functional change here, or at least I hope there isn't,
just code rearrangement.  The rearrangement is motivated by
partition-wise aggregate, which doesn't need to consider the
degenerate case but wants to reuse the logic for the ordinary case.

Based loosely on a patch from Ashutosh Bapat and Jeevan Chalke, but I
whacked it around pretty heavily. The larger patch series of which
this patch is a part was also reviewed and tested by Antonin Houska,

Peter Eisentraut 3a4b891964 Fix more format truncation issues
Fix the warnings created by the compiler warning options
-Wformat-overflow=2 -Wformat-truncation=2, supported since GCC 7.  This
is a more aggressive variant of the fixes in
6275f5d28a, which GCC 7 warned about by
default.

The issues are all harmless, but some dubious coding patterns are
cleaned up.

One issue that is of external interest is that BGW_MAXLEN is increased
from 64 to 96.  Apparently, the old value would cause the bgw_name of
logical replication workers to be truncated in some circumstances.

But this doesn't actually add those warning options.  It appears that
the warnings depend a bit on compilation and optimization options, so it
would be annoying to have to keep up with that.  This is more of a
once-in-a-while cleanup.

get_number_of_groups() and make_partial_grouping_target() currently
fish information directly out of the PlannerInfo; in the former case,

fine if there's only one grouping relation, but if the pending patch
for partition-wise aggregate gets committed, we'll have multiple

Alvaro Herrera 24c0a6c649 logical replication: fix OID type mapping mechanism
The logical replication type map seems to have been misused by its only
caller -- it would try to use the remote OID as input for local type
routines, which unsurprisingly could result in bogus "cache lookup
failed for type XYZ" errors, or random other type names being picked up
if they happened to use the right OID.  Fix that, changing
Oid logicalrep_typmap_getid(Oid remoteid) to
char *logicalrep_typmap_gettypname(Oid remoteid)
which is more useful.  If the remote type is not part of the typmap,
this simply prints "unrecognized type" instead of choking trying to
figure out -- a pointless exercise (because the only input for that
comes from replication messages, which are not under the local node's
control) and dangerous to boot, when called from within an error context
callback.

Once that is done, it comes to light that the local OID in the typmap
entry was not being used for anything; the type/schema names are what we
need, so remove local type OID from that struct.

Once you do that, it becomes pointless to attach a callback to regular
syscache invalidation.  So remove that also.

Robert Haas 0927d2f46d Let Parallel Append over simple UNION ALL have partial subpaths.
A simple UNION ALL gets flattened into an appendrel of subquery
RTEs, but up until now it's been impossible for the appendrel to use
the partial paths for the subqueries, so we can implement the
appendrel as a Parallel Append but only one with non-partial paths
as children.

There are three separate obstacles to removing that limitation.
First, when planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths to the
final_rel so that they are potentially visible to outer query levels
(but not if they have initPlans attached, because that wouldn't be
safe).  Second, after planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths
for the final_rel to the subquery RTE in the outer query level in the
same way we do for non-partial paths.  Third, teach finalize_plan() to
account for the possibility that the fake parameter we use for rescan
signalling when the plan contains a Gather (Merge) node may be
propagated from an outer query level.

Tom Lane d04900de7d When updating reltuples after ANALYZE, just extrapolate from our sample.
The existing logic for updating pg_class.reltuples trusted the sampling
results only for the pages ANALYZE actually visited, preferring to
believe the previous tuple density estimate for all the unvisited pages.
While there's some rationale for doing that for VACUUM (first that
VACUUM is likely to visit a very nonrandom subset of pages, and second
that we know for sure that the unvisited pages did not change), there's
no such rationale for ANALYZE: by assumption, it's looked at an unbiased
random sample of the table's pages.  Furthermore, in a very large table
ANALYZE will have examined only a tiny fraction of the table's pages,
meaning it cannot slew the overall density estimate very far at all.
In a table that is physically growing, this causes reltuples to increase
nearly proportionally to the change in relpages, regardless of what is
actually happening in the table.  This has been observed to cause reltuples
to become so much larger than reality that it effectively shuts off
autovacuum, whose threshold for doing anything is a fraction of reltuples.
(Getting to the point where that would happen seems to require some
additional, not well understood, conditions.  But it's undeniable that if
reltuples is seriously off in a large table, ANALYZE alone will not fix it
in any reasonable number of iterations, especially not if the table is
continuing to grow.)

Hence, restrict the use of vac_estimate_reltuples() to VACUUM alone,
and in ANALYZE, just extrapolate from the sample pages on the assumption
that they provide an accurate model of the whole table.  If, by very bad
luck, they don't, at least another ANALYZE will fix it; in the old logic
a single bad estimate could cause problems indefinitely.

In HEAD, let's remove vac_estimate_reltuples' is_analyze argument
altogether; it was never used for anything and now it's totally pointless.
But keep it in the back branches, in case any third-party code is calling
this function.

Per bug #15005.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane 38f7831d70 Avoid holding AutovacuumScheduleLock while rechecking table statistics.
In databases with many tables, re-fetching the statistics takes some time,
so that this behavior seriously decreases the available concurrency for
multiple autovac workers.  There's discussion afoot about more complete
fixes, but a simple and back-patchable amelioration is to claim the table
and release the lock before rechecking stats.  If we find out there's no
longer a reason to process the table, re-taking the lock to un-claim the
table is cheap enough.

(This patch is quite old, but got lost amongst a discussion of more
aggressive fixes.  It's not clear when or if such a fix will be
accepted, but in any case it'd be unlikely to get back-patched.
Let's do this now so we have some improvement for the back branches.)

In passing, make the normal un-claim step take AutovacuumScheduleLock
not AutovacuumLock, since that is what is documented to protect the
wi_tableoid field.  This wasn't an actual bug in view of the fact that
readers of that field hold both locks, but it creates some concurrency
penalty against operations that need only AutovacuumLock.

Back-patch to all supported versions.

Tom Lane 4a4e2442a7 Fix improper uses of canonicalize_qual().
One of the things canonicalize_qual() does is to remove constant-NULL
subexpressions of top-level AND/OR clauses.  It does that on the assumption
that what it's given is a top-level WHERE clause, so that NULL can be
treated like FALSE.  Although this is documented down inside a subroutine
of canonicalize_qual(), it wasn't mentioned in the documentation of that
function itself, and some callers hadn't gotten that memo.

Notably, commit d007a9505 caused get_relation_constraints() to apply
canonicalize_qual() to CHECK constraints.  That allowed constraint
exclusion to misoptimize situations in which a CHECK constraint had a
provably-NULL subclause, as seen in the regression test case added here,
in which a child table that should be scanned is not.  (Although this
thinko is ancient, the test case doesn't fail before 9.2, for reasons
I've not bothered to track down in detail.  There may be related cases
that do fail before that.)

More recently, commit f0e44751d added an independent bug by applying
canonicalize_qual() to index expressions, which is even sillier since
those might not even be boolean.  If they are, though, I think this
could lead to making incorrect index entries for affected index
expressions in v10.  I haven't attempted to prove that though.

To fix, add an "is_check" parameter to canonicalize_qual() to specify
whether it should assume WHERE or CHECK semantics, and make it perform
NULL-elimination accordingly.  Adjust the callers to apply the right
semantics, or remove the call entirely in cases where it's not known
that the expression has one or the other semantics.  I also removed
the call in some cases involving partition expressions, where it should
be a no-op because such expressions should be canonical already ...
and was a no-op, independently of whether it could in principle have
done something, because it was being handed the qual in implicit-AND
format which isn't what it expects.  In HEAD, add an Assert to catch
that type of mistake in future.

This represents an API break for external callers of canonicalize_qual().
While that's intentional in HEAD to make such callers think about which
case applies to them, it seems like something we probably wouldn't be
thanked for in released branches.  Hence, in released branches, the
extra parameter is added to a new function canonicalize_qual_ext(),
and canonicalize_qual() is a wrapper that retains its old behavior.

Patch by me with suggestions from Dean Rasheed.  Back-patch to all
supported branches.

Tom Lane 5748f3a0aa Improve predtest.c's internal docs, and enhance its functionality a bit.
Commit b08df9cab left things rather poorly documented as far as the
exact semantics of "clause_is_check" mode went.  Also, that mode did
not really work correctly for predicate_refuted_by; although given the
lack of specification as to what it should do, as well as the lack
of any actual use-case, that's perhaps not surprising.

Rename "clause_is_check" to "weak" proof mode, and provide specifications
for what it should do.  I defined weak refutation as meaning "truth of A
implies non-truth of B", which makes it possible to use the mode in the
part of relation_excluded_by_constraints that checks for mutually
contradictory WHERE clauses.  Fix up several places that did things wrong
for that definition.  (As far as I can see, these errors would only lead
to failure-to-prove, not incorrect claims of proof, making them not
serious bugs even aside from the fact that v10 contains no use of this
mode.  So there seems no need for back-patching.)

In addition, teach predicate_refuted_by_recurse that it can use
predicate_implied_by_recurse after all when processing a strong NOT-clause,
so long as it asks for the correct proof strength.  This is an optimization
that could have been included in commit b08df9cab, but wasn't.

Also, simplify and generalize the logic that checks for whether nullness of
the argument of IS [NOT] NULL would force overall nullness of the predicate
or clause.  (This results in a change in the partition_prune test's output,
as it is now able to prune an all-nulls partition that it did not recognize
before.)

In passing, in PartConstraintImpliedByRelConstraint, remove bogus
conversion of the constraint list to explicit-AND form and then right back
again; that accomplished nothing except forcing a useless extra level of
recursion inside predicate_implied_by.

In pg11, comments on statistics objects are cloned too.  In pg10 they
are not, because I (Álvaro) was too coward to change the parse node as
required to support it.  Also, in pg10 I chose not to renumber the
parser symbols for the various INCLUDING options in LIKE, for the same
reason.  Any corresponding user-visible changes (docs) are backpatched,
though.

Robert Haas 42d7074ebb shm_mq: Fix detach race condition.
Commit 34db06ef9a adopted a lock-free
design for shm_mq.c, but it introduced a race condition that could
lose messages.  When shm_mq_receive_bytes() detects that the other end
has detached, it must make sure that it has seen the final version of
mq_bytes_written, or it might miss a message sent before detaching.

Tom Lane 58d9acc18d Fix assorted issues in convert_to_scalar().
If convert_to_scalar is passed a pair of datatypes it can't cope with,
its former behavior was just to elog(ERROR).  While this is OK so far as
the core code is concerned, there's extension code that would like to use
scalarltsel/scalargtsel/etc as selectivity estimators for operators that
work on non-core datatypes, and this behavior is a show-stopper for that
use-case.  If we simply allow convert_to_scalar to return FALSE instead of
outright failing, then the main logic of scalarltsel/scalargtsel will work
fine for any operator that behaves like a scalar inequality comparison.
The lack of conversion capability will mean that we can't estimate to
better than histogram-bin-width precision, since the code will effectively
assume that the comparison constant falls at the middle of its bin.  But
that's still a lot better than nothing.  (Someday we should provide a way
for extension code to supply a custom version of convert_to_scalar, but
today is not that day.)

While poking at this issue, we noted that the existing code for handling
type bytea in convert_to_scalar is several bricks shy of a load.
It assumes without checking that if the comparison value is type bytea,
the bounds values are too; in the worst case this could lead to a crash.
It also fails to detoast the input values, so that the comparison result is
complete garbage if any input is toasted out-of-line, compressed, or even
just short-header.  I'm not sure how often such cases actually occur ---
the bounds values, at least, are probably safe since they are elements of
an array and hence can't be toasted.  But that doesn't make this code OK.

Back-patch to all supported branches, partly because author requested that,
but mostly because of the bytea bugs.  The change in API for the exposed
routine convert_network_to_scalar() is theoretically a back-patch hazard,
but it seems pretty unlikely that any third-party code is calling that
function directly.

Rationalize a couple of macro names:
* In catalog/pg_init_privs.h, rename Anum_pg_init_privs_privs to
  Anum_pg_init_privs_initprivs to match the column's actual name.
* In ecpg, rename ZPBITOID to BITOID to match catalog/pg_type.h.
This reduces reader confusion, and will allow us to generate these
macros automatically in future.

In catalog/pg_tablespace.h, fix the ordering of related DATA and
#define lines to agree with how it's done elsewhere.  This has no
impact today, but simplifies life for the bootstrap data conversion

Robert Haas 497171d3e2 shm_mq: Have the receiver set the sender's less frequently.
Instead of marking data from the ringer buffer consumed and setting the
sender's latch for every message, do it only when the amount of data we
can consume is at least 1/4 of the size of the ring buffer, or when no
data remains in the ring buffer.  This is dramatically faster in my
testing; apparently, the savings from sending signals less frequently
outweighs the benefit of letting the sender know about available buffer
space sooner.

Patch by me, reviewed by Andres Freund and tested by Rafia Sabih.

Robert Haas 34db06ef9a shm_mq: Reduce spinlock usage.
Previously, mq_bytes_read and mq_bytes_written were protected by the
spinlock, but that turns out to cause pretty serious spinlock
contention on queries which send many tuples through a Gather or
Gather Merge node.  This patches changes things so that we instead
read and write those values using 8-byte atomics.  Since mq_bytes_read
can only be changed by the receiver and mq_bytes_written can only be
changed by the sender, the only purpose of the spinlock is to prevent
reads and writes of these values from being torn on platforms where
8-byte memory access is not atomic, making the conversion fairly
straightforward.

Testing shows that this produces some slowdown if we're using emulated
64-bit atomics, but since they should be available on any platform
where performance is a primary concern, that seems OK.  It's faster,
sometimes a lot faster, on platforms where such atomics are available.

Patch by me, reviewed by Andres Freund, who also suggested the
design.  Also tested by Rafia Sabih.

Tom Lane 81b9b5ce49 Make gistvacuumcleanup() count the actual number of index tuples.
Previously, it just returned the heap tuple count, which might be only an
estimate, and would be completely the wrong thing if the index is partial.
Since this function scans every index page anyway to find free pages,
it's practically free to count the surviving index tuples.  Let's do that
and return an accurate count.

This is easily visible as a wrong reltuples value for a partial GiST
index following VACUUM, so back-patch to all supported branches.

These errors have been seen in the field in corrupted-data situations.
It seems worthwhile to report them with ERRCODE_DATA_CORRUPTED, rather
than the generic ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR, for the benefit of log monitoring
and tools like amcheck.  However, use errmsg_internal so that the text
strings still aren't translated; it seems unlikely to be worth
translators' time to do so.

Tom Lane b5febc1d12 Fix IOS planning when only some index columns can return an attribute.
Since 9.5, it's possible that some but not all columns of an index
support returning the indexed value for index-only scans.  If the
same indexed column appears in index columns that behave both ways,
check_index_only() supposed that it'd be OK to do an index-only scan
testing that column; but that fails if we have to recheck the indexed
condition on one of the columns that doesn't support this.

In principle we could make this work by remapping the recheck expressions
to pull the value from a column that does support returning the indexed
value.  But such cases are so weird and rare that, at least for now,
it doesn't seem worth the trouble.  Instead, just teach check_index_only
that a value is returnable only if all the index columns containing it
are returnable, rather than any of them.

Per report from David Pereiro Lagares.  Back-patch to 9.5 where the
possibility of this situation appeared.
