Andres Freund ebcc7bf949 Rephrase references to "time qualification".
Now that the relevant code has, for other reasons, moved out of
tqual.[ch], it seems time to refer to visiblity rather than time
qualification.

Andres Freund c91560defc Move remaining code from tqual.[ch] to heapam.h / heapam_visibility.c.
Given these routines are heap specific, and that there will be more
generic visibility support in via table AM, it makes sense to move the
prototypes to heapam.h (routines like HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum will
not be exposed in a generic fashion, because they are too storage
specific).

Similarly, the code in tqual.c is specific to heap, so moving it into
access/heap/ makes sense.

Andres Freund b7eda3e0e3 Move generic snapshot related code from tqual.h to snapmgr.h.
The code in tqual.c is largely heap specific. Due to the upcoming
pluggable storage work, it therefore makes sense to move it into
access/heap/ (as the file's header notes, the tqual name isn't very
good).

But the various statically allocated snapshot and snapshot
initialization functions are now (see previous commit) generic and do
not depend on functions declared in tqual.h anymore. Therefore move.
Also move XidInMVCCSnapshot as that's useful for future AMs, and
already used outside of tqual.c.

Andres Freund 63746189b2 Change snapshot type to be determined by enum rather than callback.
This is in preparation for allowing the same snapshot be used for
different table AMs. With the current callback based approach we would
need one callback for each supported AM, which clearly would not be
extensible.  Thus add a new Snapshot->snapshot_type field, and move
the dispatch into HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility() (which is now a
function). Later work will then dispatch calls to
HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility() and other AMs visibility functions
depending on the type of the table.  The central SnapshotType enum
also seems like a good location to centralize documentation about the
intended behaviour of various types of snapshots.

As tqual.h isn't included by bufmgr.h any more (as HeapTupleSatisfies*
isn't referenced by TestForOldSnapshot() anymore) a few files now need
to include it directly.

Alvaro Herrera 0464fdf07f Create action triggers when partitions are detached
Detaching a partition from a partitioned table that's constrained by
foreign keys requires additional action triggers on the referenced side;
otherwise, DELETE/UPDATE actions there fail to notice rows in the table
that was partition, and so are incorrectly allowed through.  With this
commit, those triggers are now created.  Conversely, when a table that
has a foreign key is attached as a partition to a table that also has
the same foreign key, those action triggers are no longer needed, so we
remove them.

Add a minimal test case verifying (part of) this.

Back in commit 100340e2dc, we made relcache entries keep lists of the
foreign keys applying to the relation -- but we forgot to update
CacheInvalidateHeapTuple to flush those entries when new FKs got created

that would be explained by this ommission, but I noticed the problem
while working on an unrelated bugfix which clearly showed it.  Fix by
adding relcache flush on relevant foreign key changes.

Andres Freund 4b21acf522 Introduce access/{table.h, relation.h}, for generic functions from heapam.h.
access/heapam contains functions that are very storage specific (say
heap_insert() and a lot of lower level functions), and fairly generic
infrastructure like relation_open(), heap_open() etc.  In the upcoming
pluggable storage work we're introducing a layer between table
accesses in general and heapam, to allow for different storage
methods. For a bit cleaner separation it thus seems advantageous to
move generic functions like the aforementioned to their own headers.

access/relation.h will contain relation_open() etc, and access/table.h
will contain table_open() (formerly known as heap_open()). I've decided
for table.h not to include relation.h, but we might change that at a
later stage.

relation.h already exists in another directory, but the other
plausible name (rel.h) also conflicts. It'd be nice if there were a
non-conflicting name, but nobody came up with a suggestion. It's
possible that the appropriate way to address the naming conflict would
be to rename nodes/relation.h, which isn't particularly well named.

To avoid breaking a lot of extensions that just use heap_open() etc,
table.h has macros mapping the old names to the new ones, and heapam.h
includes relation, table.h.  That also allows to keep the
bulk renaming of existing callers in a separate commit.

Tom Lane f1ad067fc3 Sort the dependent objects before recursing in findDependentObjects().
Historically, the notices output by DROP CASCADE tended to come out
in uncertain order, and in some cases you might get different claims
about which object depends on which other one.  This is because we
just traversed the dependency tree in the order in which pg_depend
entries are seen, and nbtree has never promised anything about the
order of equal-keyed index entries.  We've put up with that for years,
hacking regression tests when necessary to prevent them from emitting
unstable output.  However, it's a problem for pending work that will
change nbtree's behavior for equal keys, as that causes unexpected
changes in the regression test results.

Hence, adjust findDependentObjects to sort the results of each
indexscan before processing them.  The sort is on descending OID of
the dependent objects, hence more or less reverse creation order.
While this rule could still result in bogus regression test failures
if an OID wraparound occurred mid-test, that seems unlikely to happen
in any plausible development or packaging-test scenario.

This is enough to ensure output stability for ordinary DROP CASCADE
commands, but not for DROP OWNED BY, because that has a different
code path with the same problem.  We might later choose to sort in
the DROP OWNED BY code as well, but this patch doesn't do so.

I've also not done anything about reverting the existing hacks to
suppress unstable DROP CASCADE output in specific regression tests.
It might be worth undoing those, but it seems like a distinct question.

The first indexscan loop in findDependentObjects is not touched,
meaning there is a hazard of unstable error reports from that too.
However, said hazard is not the fault of that code: it was designed
on the assumption that there could be at most one "owning" object
to complain about, and that assumption does not seem unreasonable.
The recent patch that added the possibility of multiple
DEPENDENCY_INTERNAL_AUTO links broke that assumption, but we should
fix that situation not band-aid around it.  That's a matter for
another patch, though.

Etsuro Fujita 8d8dcead12 Postpone generating tlists and EC members for inheritance dummy children.
Previously, in set_append_rel_size(), we generated tlists and EC members
for dummy children for possible use by partition-wise join, even if
partition-wise join was disabled or the top parent was not a partitioned
table, but adding such EC members causes noticeable planning speed
degradation for queries with certain kinds of join quals like
"(foo.x + bar.y) = constant" where foo and bar are partitioned tables in
cases where there are lots of dummy children, as the EC members lists
grow huge, especially for the ECs derived from such join quals, which
makes the search for the parent EC members in add_child_rel_equivalences()
very time-consuming.  Postpone the work until such children are actually
involved in a partition-wise join.

Alvaro Herrera 0325d7a595 Fix creation of duplicate foreign keys on partitions
When creating a foreign key in a partitioned table, if some partitions
already have equivalent constraints, we wastefully create duplicates of
the constraints instead of attaching to the existing ones.  That's
inconsistent with the de-duplication that is applied when a table is
attached as a partition.  To fix, reuse the FK-cloning code instead of
having a separate code path.

Backpatch to Postgres 11.  This is a subtle behavior change, but surely
a welcome one since there's no use in having duplicate foreign keys.

Discovered by Álvaro Herrera while thinking about a different problem
reported by Jesper Pedersen (bug #15587).

Alvaro Herrera 03afae201f Move CloneForeignKeyConstraints to tablecmds.c
My commit 3de241dba8 introduced some code to create a clone of a
foreign key to a partition, but I put it in pg_constraint.c because it
was too close to the contents of the pg_constraint row.  With the
previous commit that split out the constraint tuple deconstruction into
its own routine, it makes more sense to have the FK-cloning function in
tablecmds.c, mostly because its static subroutine can then be used by a
future bugfix.

My initial posting of this patch had this routine as static in
tablecmds.c, but sadly this function is already part of the Postgres 11
ABI as exported from pg_constraint.c, so keep it as exported also just
to avoid breaking any possible users of it.

Tom Lane 9194c4270b Avoid sometimes printing both tables and their columns in DROP CASCADE.
A cascaded drop might find independent reasons to drop both a table
and some column of the table (for instance, a schema drop might include
dropping a data type used in some table in the schema).  Depending on
the order of visitation of pg_depend entries, we might report the
table column and the whole table as separate objects-to-be-dropped,
or we might only report the table.  This is confusing and leads to
unstable regression test output, so fix it to report only the table
regardless of visitation order.

Per gripe from Peter Geoghegan.  This is just cosmetic from a user's
standpoint, and we haven't actually seen regression test problems in
practice (yet), so I'll refrain from back-patching.

Michael Paquier c5660e0aa5 Restrict the use of temporary namespace in two-phase transactions
Attempting to use a temporary table within a two-phase transaction is
forbidden for ages.  However, there have been uncovered grounds for
a couple of other object types and commands which work on temporary
objects with two-phase commit.  In short, trying to create, lock or drop
an object on a temporary schema should not be authorized within a
two-phase transaction, as it would cause its state to create
dependencies with other sessions, causing all sorts of side effects with
the existing session or other sessions spawned later on trying to use
the same temporary schema name.

Regression tests are added to cover all the grounds found, the original
report mentioned function creation, but monitoring closer there are many
other patterns with LOCK, DROP or CREATE EXTENSION which are involved.
One of the symptoms resulting in combining both is that the session
which used the temporary schema is not able to shut down completely,
waiting for being able to drop the temporary schema, something that it
cannot complete because of the two-phase transaction involved with
temporary objects.  In this case the client is able to disconnect but
the session remains alive on the backend-side, potentially blocking
connection backend slots from being used.  Other problems reported could
also involve server crashes.

This is back-patched down to v10, which is where 9b013dc has introduced
MyXactFlags, something that this patch relies on.

Andrew Gierth d16d453870 Postpone aggregate checks until after collation is assigned.
Previously, parseCheckAggregates was run before
assign_query_collations, but this causes problems if any expression
has already had a collation assigned by some transform function (e.g.
transformCaseExpr) before parseCheckAggregates runs. The differing
collations would cause expressions not to be recognized as equal to
the ones in the GROUP BY clause, leading to spurious errors about
unaggregated column references.

The result was that CASE expr WHEN val ... would fail when "expr"
contained a GROUPING() expression or matched one of the group by
expressions, and where collatable types were involved; whereas the
supposedly identical CASE WHEN expr = val ... would succeed.

As a few headers are not indirectly included anymore, execnodes.h and
relscan.h need a few additional includes. Some of the depended on
types were replacable by using the underlying structs, but e.g. for
Snapshot in execnodes.h that'd have gotten more invasive than

We usually don't change the name of structs between the struct name

Andres Freund 4c850ecec6 Don't include heapam.h from others headers.
heapam.h previously was included in a number of widely used
headers (e.g. execnodes.h, indirectly in executor.h, ...). That's
problematic on its own, as heapam.h contains a lot of low-level
details that don't need to be exposed that widely, but becomes more
problematic with the upcoming introduction of pluggable table storage
- it seems inappropriate for heapam.h to be included that widely
afterwards.

heapam.h was largely only included in other headers to get the
HeapScanDesc typedef (which was defined in heapam.h, even though
HeapScanDescData is defined in relscan.h). The better solution here
seems to be to just use the underlying struct (forward declared where
necessary). Similar for BulkInsertState.

Another problem was that LockTupleMode was used in executor.h - parts
of the file tried to cope without heapam.h, but due to the fact that
it indirectly included it, several subsequent violations of that goal
were not not noticed. We could just reuse the approach of declaring
parameters as int, but it seems nicer to move LockTupleMode to
lockoptions.h - that's not a perfect location, but also doesn't seem
bad.

As a number of files relied on implicitly included heapam.h, a
significant number of files grew an explicit include. It's quite
probably that a few external projects will need to do the same.

Michael Paquier 373bda61d2 Improve error messages for incorrect types of logical replication targets
If trying to use something else than a plain table as logical
replication target, a rather-generic error message gets used to report
the problem.  This can be confusing when it comes to foreign tables and
partitioned tables, so use more dedicated messages in these cases.

Tom Lane 1db5667bac Avoid sharing PARAM_EXEC slots between different levels of NestLoop.
Up to now, createplan.c attempted to share PARAM_EXEC slots for
NestLoopParams across different plan levels, if the same underlying Var
was being fed down to different righthand-side subplan trees by different
NestLoops.  This was, I think, more of an artifact of using subselect.c's
PlannerParamItem infrastructure than an explicit design goal, but anyway
that was the end result.

This works well enough as long as the plan tree is executing synchronously,
but the feature whereby Gather can execute the parallelized subplan locally
breaks it.  An upper NestLoop node might execute for a row retrieved from
a parallel worker, and assign a value for a PARAM_EXEC slot from that row,
while the leader's copy of the parallelized subplan is suspended with a
different active value of the row the Var comes from.  When control
eventually returns to the leader's subplan, it gets the wrong answers if
the same PARAM_EXEC slot is being used within the subplan, as reported
in bug #15577 from Bartosz Polnik.

This is pretty reminiscent of the problem fixed in commit 46c508fbc, and
the proper fix seems to be the same: don't try to share PARAM_EXEC slots
across different levels of controlling NestLoop nodes.

This requires decoupling NestLoopParam handling from PlannerParamItem
handling, although the logic remains somewhat similar.  To avoid bizarre
division of labor between subselect.c and createplan.c, I decided to move
all the param-slot-assignment logic for both cases out of those files
and put it into a new file paramassign.c.  Hopefully it's a bit better
documented now, too.

A regression test case for this might be nice, but we don't know a
test case that triggers the problem with a suitably small amount
of data.

Back-patch to 9.6 where we added Gather nodes.  It's conceivable that
related problems exist in older branches; but without some evidence
for that, I'll leave the older branches alone.

This was an oversight in commit 16828d5c. If the table is going to be
rewritten, we simply clear all the missing values from all the table's
attributes, since there will no longer be any rows with the attributes
missing. Otherwise, we repackage the missing value in an array
constructed with the new type specifications.

Avoid using "typeid" as a parameter name in header files, since that
is a C++ keyword.  These cases were introduced recently, in 04fe805a1

Since I'm an incurable neatnik, also rename these parameters in the
underlying function definitions.  That's not really necessary per
project rules, but I don't like function declarations that don't
quite agree with the underlying definitions.

Alvaro Herrera b60c397599 Move inheritance expansion code into its own file
This commit moves expand_inherited_tables and underlings from
optimizer/prep/prepunionc.c to optimizer/utils/inherit.c.
Also, all of the AppendRelInfo-based expression manipulation routines
are moved to optimizer/utils/appendinfo.c.

No functional code changes.  One exception is the introduction of
make_append_rel_info, but that's still just moving around code.

Also, stop including <limits.h> in prepunion.c, which no longer needs
it since 3fc6e2d7f5.  I (Álvaro) noticed this because Amit was copying
that to inherit.c, which likewise doesn't need it.

Tom Lane 8ff5f824dc Reduce the size of the fmgr_builtin_oid_index[] array.
This index array was originally defined to have 10000 entries (ranging
up to FirstGenbkiObjectId), but we really only need entries up to the
last existing builtin function OID, currently 6121.  That saves close
to 8K of never-accessed space in the server executable, at the small
price of one more fetch in fmgr_isbuiltin().

We could reduce the array size still further by renumbering a few of
the highest-numbered builtin functions; but there's a small risk of
breaking clients that have chosen to hardwire those function OIDs,
so it's not clear if it'd be worth the trouble.  (We should, however,
discourage future patches from choosing function OIDs above 6K as long
as there's still lots of space below that.)

Tom Lane afb0d0712f Replace the data structure used for keyword lookup.
Previously, ScanKeywordLookup was passed an array of string pointers.
This had some performance deficiencies: the strings themselves might
be scattered all over the place depending on the compiler (and some
quick checking shows that at least with gcc-on-Linux, they indeed
weren't reliably close together).  That led to very cache-unfriendly
behavior as the binary search touched strings in many different pages.
Also, depending on the platform, the string pointers might need to
be adjusted at program start, so that they couldn't be simple constant
data.  And the ScanKeyword struct had been designed with an eye to
32-bit machines originally; on 64-bit it requires 16 bytes per
keyword, making it even more cache-unfriendly.

Redesign so that the keyword strings themselves are allocated
consecutively (as part of one big char-string constant), thereby
eliminating the touch-lots-of-unrelated-pages syndrome.  And get
rid of the ScanKeyword array in favor of three separate arrays:
uint16 offsets into the keyword array, uint16 token codes, and
uint8 keyword categories.  That reduces the overhead per keyword
to 5 bytes instead of 16 (even less in programs that only need
one of the token codes and categories); moreover, the binary search
only touches the offsets array, further reducing its cache footprint.
This also lets us put the token codes somewhere else than the
keyword strings are, which avoids some unpleasant build dependencies.

While we're at it, wrap the data used by ScanKeywordLookup into
a struct that can be treated as an opaque type by most callers.
That doesn't change things much right now, but it will make it
less painful to switch to a hash-based lookup method, as is being
discussed in the mailing list thread.

Most of the change here is associated with adding a generator
script that can build the new data structure from the same
list-of-PG_KEYWORD header representation we used before.
The PG_KEYWORD lists that plpgsql and ecpg used to embed in
their scanner .c files have to be moved into headers, and the
Makefiles have to be taught to invoke the generator script.
This work is also necessary if we're to consider hash-based lookup,
since the generator script is what would be responsible for
constructing a hash table.

Aside from saving a few kilobytes in each program that includes
the keyword table, this seems to speed up raw parsing (flex+bison)
by a few percent.  So it's worth doing even as it stands, though
we think we can gain even more with a follow-on patch to switch
to hash-based lookup.
