This reverts commit 5ead85fbc8.
This commit shows test failures with debug_parallel_query=regress. The
underlying issue needs to be debugged, so revert for now.
Expose the count of index searches/index descents in EXPLAIN ANALYZE's
output for index scan nodes. This information is particularly useful
with scans that use ScalarArrayOp quals, where the number of index scans
isn't predictable in advance (at least not with optimizations like the
one added to nbtree by Postgres 17 commit 5bf748b8). It will also be
useful when EXPLAIN ANALYZE shows details of an nbtree index scan that
uses skip scan optimizations set to be introduced by an upcoming patch.
The instrumentation works by teaching index AMs to increment a new
nsearches counter whenever a new index search begins. The counter is
incremented at exactly the same point that index AMs must already
increment the index's pg_stat_*_indexes.idx_scan counter (we're counting
the same event, but at the scan level rather than the relation level).
The new counter is stored in the scan descriptor (IndexScanDescData),
which explain.c reaches by going through the scan node's PlanState.
This approach doesn't match the approach used when tracking other index
scan specific costs (e.g., "Rows Removed by Filter:"). It is similar to
the approach used in other cases where we must track costs that are only
readily accessible inside an access method, and not from the executor
(e.g., "Heap Blocks:" output for a Bitmap Heap Scan). It is inherently
necessary to maintain a counter that can be incremented multiple times
during a single amgettuple call (or amgetbitmap call), and directly
exposing PlanState.instrument to index access methods seems unappealing.

This allows to redefine an existing non-inheritable constraint to be
inheritable, which allows to straighten up situations with NO INHERIT
constraints so that thay can become normal constraints without having to
re-verify existing data. For existing inheritance children this may
require creating additional constraints, if they don't exist already.
It also allows to do the opposite, if only for symmetry.

DefineRelation was of the opinion that it could usefully pre-fill
atthasdef flags to eliminate work for StoreAttrDefault. This is not
the case, however: the tupledesc that it's filling is not the one that
InsertPgAttributeTuples will work from. The tupledesc used there is
made by RelationBuildLocalRelation, which deliberately doesn't copy
atthasdef. Moreover, if this did happen as the code thinks, it would
be wrong for the case of plain "DEFAULT NULL" clauses, since we detect
and ignore simple-null-Const defaults later on. Hence, remove the
useless code.
It also emerges that it's not really worth a special-case path in
StoreAttrDefault() for atthasdef already being set, because as far as
we can see that never happens: cases where an existing default gets
updated always do RemoveAttrDefault first, so as to clean up
possibly-no-longer-correct dependency entries. If it were the case
the code would still work, anyway.
Also remove a nearby comment made moot by 5eaa0e92e.

If a domain type has a default, adding a column of that type (without
any explicit DEFAULT clause) failed to install the domain's default
value in existing rows, instead leaving the new column null. This
is unexpected, and it used to work correctly before v11. The cause
is confusion in the atthasmissing mechanism about which default value
to install: we'd only consider installing an explicitly-specified
default, and then we'd decide that no table rewrite is needed.
To fix, take the responsibility for filling attmissingval out of
StoreAttrDefault, and instead put it into ATExecAddColumn's existing
logic that derives the correct value to fill the new column with.
Also, centralize the logic that determines the need for
default-related table rewriting there, instead of spreading it over
four or five places.
In the back branches, we'll leave the attmissingval-filling code
in StoreAttrDefault even though it's now dead, for fear that some
extension may be depending on that functionality to exist there.
A separate HEAD-only patch will clean up the now-useless code.

Commit ddb17e387a attempted to avoid
confusing users by displaying digits after the decimal point only when
nloops > 1, since it's impossible to have a fraction row count after a
single iteration. However, this made the regression tests unstable since
parallal queries will have nloops>1 for all nodes below the Gather or
Gather Merge in normal cases, but if the workers don't start in time and
the leader finishes all the work, they will suddenly have nloops==1,
making it unpredictable whether the digits after the decimal point would
be displayed or not. Although 44cbba9a7f
seemed to fix the immediate failures, it may still be the case that there
are lower-probability failures elsewhere in the regression tests.
Various fixes are possible here. For example, it has previously been
proposed that we should try to display the digits after the decimal
point only if rows/nloops is an integer, but currently rows is storead
as a float so it's not theoretically an exact quantity -- precision
could be lost in extreme cases. It has also been proposed that we
should try to display the digits after the decimal point only if we're
under some sort of construct that could potentially cause looping
regardless of whether it actually does. While such ideas are not
without merit, this patch adopts the much simpler solution of always
display two decimal digits. If that approach stands up to scrutiny
from the buildfarm and human users, it spares us the trouble of doing
anything more complex; if not, we can reassess.
This commit incidentally reverts 44cbba9a7f,
which should no longer be needed.

Concurrently dropping either the granted role or the grantee
does not stop GRANT from completing, instead resulting in a
dangling role reference in pg_auth_members. That's relatively
harmless in the short run, but inconsistent catalog entries
are not a good thing.
This patch solves the problem by adding the granted and grantee
roles as explicit shared dependencies of the pg_auth_members entry.
That's a bit indirect, but it works because the pg_shdepend code
applies the necessary locking and rechecking.
Commit 6566133c5 previously established similar handling for
the grantor column of pg_auth_members; it's not clear why it
didn't cover the other two role OID columns.
A side-effect of this approach is that DROP OWNED BY will now drop
pg_auth_members entries that mention the target role as either the
granted or grantee role. That's clearly appropriate for the
grantee, since we'll drop its other privileges too. It doesn't
seem too far out of line for the granted role, since we're
presumably about to drop it and besides we're removing all reasons
why it'd matter to be a member of it. (One could argue that this
makes DropRole's code to auto-drop pg_auth_members entries
unnecessary, but I chose to leave it in place since perhaps some
people's workflows expect that to work without a DROP OWNED BY.)
Note to patch readers: CreateRole's first CommandCounterIncrement
call is now unconditional, because this change creates another
case in which it's needed, and it seemed to be more trouble than
it's worth to preserve that micro-optimization.
Arguably this is a bug fix, but the fact that it changes the
expected contents of pg_shdepend seems like not a great thing
to do in the stable branches, and perhaps we don't want the
change in DROP OWNED BY semantics there either. On the other
hand, I opted not to force a catversion bump in HEAD, because
the presence or absence of these entries doesn't matter for
most purposes.

The type argument wasn't actually really necessary. It was a remnant
of converting the API of the gist strategy translation from using
opclass to using opfamily+opcintype (commits c09e5a6a01,
622f678c10). For looking up the gist translation function, we used
the convention "amproclefttype = amprocrighttype = opclass's
opcintype" (see pg_amproc.h). But each operator family should only
have one translation function, and getting the right type for the
lookup is sometimes cumbersome and fragile, so this is all
unnecessarily complicated.
To simplify this, change the gist stategy support procedure to take
"any", "any" as argument. (This is arbitrary but seems intuitive.
The alternative of using InvalidOid as argument(s) upsets various DDL
commands, so it's not practical.) Then we don't need opcintype for
the lookup, and we can remove it from all the API layers introduced by
commit c09e5a6a01.
This also adds some more documentation about the correct signature of
the gist support function and adds more checks in gistvalidate().
This was previously underspecified. (It relied implicitly on
convention mentioned above.)

Before executing a cached generic plan, AcquireExecutorLocks() in
plancache.c locks all relations in a plan's range table to ensure the
plan is safe for execution. However, this locks runtime-prunable
relations that will later be pruned during "initial" runtime pruning,
introducing unnecessary overhead.
This commit defers locking for such relations to executor startup and
ensures that if the CachedPlan is invalidated due to concurrent DDL
during this window, replanning is triggered. Deferring these locks
avoids unnecessary locking overhead for pruned partitions, resulting
in significant speedup, particularly when many partitions are pruned
during initial runtime pruning.
* Changes to locking when executing generic plans:
AcquireExecutorLocks() now locks only unprunable relations, that is,
those found in PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids (introduced in commit
cbc127917e), to avoid locking runtime-prunable partitions
unnecessarily. The remaining locks are taken by
ExecDoInitialPruning(), which acquires them only for partitions that
survive pruning.
This deferral does not affect the locks required for permission
checking in InitPlan(), which takes place before initial pruning.
ExecCheckPermissions() now includes an Assert to verify that all
relations undergoing permission checks, none of which can be in the
set of runtime-prunable relations, are properly locked.
* Plan invalidation handling:
Deferring locks introduces a window where prunable relations may be
altered by concurrent DDL, invalidating the plan. A new function,
ExecutorStartCachedPlan(), wraps ExecutorStart() to detect and handle
invalidation caused by deferred locking. If invalidation occurs,
ExecutorStartCachedPlan() updates CachedPlan using the new
UpdateCachedPlan() function and retries execution with the updated
plan. To ensure all code paths that may be affected by this handle
invalidation properly, all callers of ExecutorStart that may execute a
PlannedStmt from a CachedPlan have been updated to use
ExecutorStartCachedPlan() instead.
UpdateCachedPlan() replaces stale plans in CachedPlan.stmt_list. A new
CachedPlan.stmt_context, created as a child of CachedPlan.context,
allows freeing old PlannedStmts while preserving the CachedPlan
structure and its statement list. This ensures that loops over
statements in upstream callers of ExecutorStartCachedPlan() remain
intact.
ExecutorStart() and ExecutorStart_hook implementations now return a
boolean value indicating whether plan initialization succeeded with a
valid PlanState tree in QueryDesc.planstate, or false otherwise, in
which case QueryDesc.planstate is NULL. Hook implementations are
required to call standard_ExecutorStart() at the beginning, and if it
returns false, they should do the same without proceeding.
* Testing:
To verify these changes, the delay_execution module tests scenarios
where cached plans become invalid due to changes in prunable relations
after deferred locks.
* Note to extension authors:
ExecutorStart_hook implementations must verify plan validity after
calling standard_ExecutorStart(), as explained earlier. For example:
if (prev_ExecutorStart)
plan_valid = prev_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags);
else
plan_valid = standard_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags);
if (!plan_valid)
return false;
<extension-code>
return true;
Extensions accessing child relations, especially prunable partitions,
via ExecGetRangeTableRelation() must now ensure their RT indexes are
present in es_unpruned_relids (introduced in commit cbc127917e), or
they will encounter an error. This is a strict requirement after this
change, as only relations in that set are locked.
The idea of deferring some locks to executor startup, allowing locks
for prunable partitions to be skipped, was first proposed by Tom Lane.

I (Álvaro) took the liberty of restructuring the code for ALTER
CONSTRAINT beyond what Amul did. The original coding before Amul's
patch was unnecessarily baroque, and this change makes things simpler
by removing one level of subroutine. Also, partly remove the assumption
that only partitioned tables are relevant (by passing sensible 'recurse'
arguments) and no longer ignore whether ONLY was specified. I say
'partly' because the current coding only walks down via the 'conparentid'
relationship, which is only used for partitioned tables; but future
patches could handle ONLY or not for other types of constraint changes
for legacy inheritance trees too.

Aggressive vacuums must scan every unfrozen tuple in order to advance
the relfrozenxid/relminmxid. Because data is often vacuumed before it is
old enough to require freezing, relations may build up a large backlog
of pages that are set all-visible but not all-frozen in the visibility
map. When an aggressive vacuum is triggered, all of these pages must be
scanned. These pages have often been evicted from shared buffers and
even from the kernel buffer cache. Thus, aggressive vacuums often incur
large amounts of extra I/O at the expense of foreground workloads.
To amortize the cost of aggressive vacuums, eagerly scan some
all-visible but not all-frozen pages during normal vacuums.
All-visible pages that are eagerly scanned and set all-frozen in the
visibility map are counted as successful eager freezes and those not
frozen are counted as failed eager freezes.
If too many eager scans fail in a row, eager scanning is temporarily
suspended until a later portion of the relation. The number of failures
tolerated is configurable globally and per table.
To effectively amortize aggressive vacuums, we cap the number of
successes as well. Capping eager freeze successes also limits the amount
of potentially wasted work if these pages are modified again before the
next aggressive vacuum. Once we reach the maximum number of blocks
successfully eager frozen, eager scanning is disabled for the remainder
of the vacuum of the relation.

Previously, only btrees were supported as the referenced unique index
for foreign keys because there was no way to get the equality strategy
number for other index methods. We have this now (commit
c09e5a6a01), so we can support this. In fact, this is now just a
special case of the existing generalized "period" foreign key
support, since that already knows how to lookup equality strategy
numbers.
Note that this does not change the requirement that the referenced
index needs to be unique, and at the moment, only btree supports that,
so this does not change anything in practice, but it would allow
another index method that has amcanunique to be supported.

This adds a new variant of generated columns that are computed on read
(like a view, unlike the existing stored generated columns, which are
computed on write, like a materialized view).
The syntax for the column definition is
... GENERATED ALWAYS AS (...) VIRTUAL
and VIRTUAL is also optional. VIRTUAL is the default rather than
STORED to match various other SQL products. (The SQL standard makes
no specification about this, but it also doesn't know about VIRTUAL or
STORED.) (Also, virtual views are the default, rather than
materialized views.)
Virtual generated columns are stored in tuples as null values. (A
very early version of this patch had the ambition to not store them at
all. But so much stuff breaks or gets confused if you have tuples
where a column in the middle is completely missing. This is a
compromise, and it still saves space over being forced to use stored
generated columns. If we ever find a way to improve this, a bit of
pg_upgrade cleverness could allow for upgrades to a newer scheme.)
The capabilities and restrictions of virtual generated columns are
mostly the same as for stored generated columns. In some cases, this
patch keeps virtual generated columns more restricted than they might
technically need to be, to keep the two kinds consistent. Some of
that could maybe be relaxed later after separate careful
considerations.
Some functionality that is currently not supported, but could possibly
be added as incremental features, some easier than others:
- index on or using a virtual column
- hence also no unique constraints on virtual columns
- extended statistics on virtual columns
- foreign-key constraints on virtual columns
- not-null constraints on virtual columns (check constraints are supported)
- ALTER TABLE / DROP EXPRESSION
- virtual column cannot have domain type
- virtual columns are not supported in logical replication
The tests in generated_virtual.sql have been copied over from
generated_stored.sql with the keyword replaced. This way we can make
sure the behavior is mostly aligned, and the differences can be
visible. Some tests for currently not supported features are

This commit introduces changes to track unpruned relations explicitly,
making it possible for top-level plan nodes, such as ModifyTable and
LockRows, to avoid processing partitions pruned during initial
pruning. Scan-level nodes, such as Append and MergeAppend, already
avoid the unnecessary processing by accessing partition pruning
results directly via part_prune_index. In contrast, top-level nodes
cannot access pruning results directly and need to determine which
partitions remain unpruned.
To address this, this commit introduces a new bitmapset field,
es_unpruned_relids, which the executor uses to track the set of
unpruned relations. This field is referenced during plan
initialization to skip initializing certain nodes for pruned
partitions. It is initialized with PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids,
a new field that the planner populates with RT indexes of relations
that cannot be pruned during runtime pruning. These include relations
not subject to partition pruning and those required for execution
regardless of pruning.
PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids is computed during set_plan_refs() by
removing the RT indexes of runtime-prunable relations, identified
from PartitionPruneInfos, from the full set of relation RT indexes.
ExecDoInitialPruning() then updates es_unpruned_relids by adding
partitions that survive initial pruning.
To support this, PartitionedRelPruneInfo and PartitionedRelPruningData
now include a leafpart_rti_map[] array that maps partition indexes to
their corresponding RT indexes. The former is used in set_plan_refs()
when constructing unprunableRelids, while the latter is used in
ExecDoInitialPruning() to convert partition indexes returned by
get_matching_partitions() into RT indexes, which are then added to
es_unpruned_relids.
These changes make it possible for ModifyTable and LockRows nodes to
process only relations that remain unpruned after initial pruning.
ExecInitModifyTable() trims lists, such as resultRelations,
withCheckOptionLists, returningLists, and updateColnosLists, to
consider only unpruned partitions. It also creates ResultRelInfo
structs only for these partitions. Similarly, child RowMarks for
pruned relations are skipped.
By avoiding unnecessary initialization of structures for pruned
partitions, these changes improve the performance of updates and
deletes on partitioned tables during initial runtime pruning.
Due to ExecInitModifyTable() changes as described above, EXPLAIN on a
plan for UPDATE and DELETE that uses runtime initial pruning no longer
lists partitions pruned during initial pruning.

This didn't actually work: the COPY succeeds, but the FREEZE
optimization isn't applied. There doesn't seem to be an easy way
to support FREEZE on foreign tables, so let's follow the precedent
established by commit 5c9a5513a3 by raising an error early. This
is arguably a bug fix, but due to the lack of reports, the minimal
discussion on the mailing list, and the potential to break existing
scripts, I am not back-patching it for now.

This turns GistTranslateCompareType() into a callback function of the
gist index AM instead of a standalone function. The existing callers
are changed to use IndexAmTranslateCompareType(). This then makes
that code not hardcoded toward gist.
This means in particular that the temporal keys code is now
independent of gist. Also, this generalizes commit 74edabce7a, so
other index access methods other than the previously hardcoded ones
could now work as REPLICA IDENTITY in a logical replication
subscriber.

Whilst working on commit 041e8b95b I happened to notice that
parallel_vacuum_main() assigns directly to the maintenance_work_mem
GUC. This is definitely not per project conventions, so I tried to
fix it to use SetConfigOption(). But that fails with "parameter
cannot be set during a parallel operation". It doesn't seem worth
working on a cleaner answer, at least not till we have a few more
instances of similar problems. But add some commentary, just so
nobody gets the idea that this is an approved way to set a GUC.
Consistently use "Size" (or size_t, or in some places int64 or double)
as the type for variables holding memory allocation sizes. In most
places variables' data types were fine already, but we had an ancient
habit of computing bytes from kilobytes-units GUCs with code like
"work_mem * 1024L". That risks overflow on Win64 where they did not
make "long" as wide as "size_t". We worked around that by restricting
such GUCs' ranges, so you couldn't set work_mem et al higher than 2GB
on Win64. This patch removes that restriction, after replacing such
calculations with "work_mem * (Size) 1024" or variants of that.
It should be noted that this patch was constructed by searching
outwards from the GUCs that have MAX_KILOBYTES as upper limit.
So I can't positively guarantee there are no other places doing
memory-size arithmetic in int or long variables. I do however feel
pretty confident that increasing MAX_KILOBYTES on Win64 is safe now.
Also, nothing in our code should be dealing in multiple-gigabyte
allocations without authorization from a relevant GUC, so it seems
pretty likely that this search caught everything that could be at
risk of overflow.

This commit adds four fields to the statistics of relations, aggregating
the amount of time spent for each operation on a relation:
- total_vacuum_time, for manual vacuum.
- total_autovacuum_time, for vacuum done by the autovacuum daemon.
- total_analyze_time, for manual analyze.
- total_autoanalyze_time, for analyze done by the autovacuum daemon.
This gives users the option to derive the average time spent for these
operations with the help of the related "count" fields.
Bump catalog version (for the catalog changes) and PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID
(for the additions in PgStat_StatTabEntry).

A ParseState exists in ATPrepAlterColumnType() since its introduction
in 077db40fa1, and it has never relied on a query string that could be
used to point at a location in the origin string on error.
The output of some regression tests are updated, showing the error
location where applicable. Six error strings are upgraded with the
error location.

For commit b663b9436e I thought this was useless, but turns out not to
be for the case where a partitioned table has two identical foreign key
constraints which can both be matched by the same constraint in a
partition during attach. This CCI makes the match search for the second
constraint in the parent ignore the constraint in the child that has
already been matched by the first constraint in the parent.

With deferred triggers, it is possible that the current role changes
between the time when the trigger is queued and the time it is
executed (for example, the triggering data modification could have
been executed in a SECURITY DEFINER function).
Up to now, deferred trigger functions would run with the current role
set to whatever was active at commit time. That does not matter for
foreign-key constraints, whose correctness doesn't depend on the
current role. But for user-written triggers, the current role
certainly can matter.
Hence, fix things so that AFTER triggers are fired under the role
that was active when they were queued, matching the behavior of
BEFORE triggers which would have actually fired at that time.
(If the trigger function is marked SECURITY DEFINER, that of course
overrides this, as it always has.)
This does not create any new security exposure: if you do DML on a
table owned by a hostile user, that user has always had various ways
to exploit your permissions, such as the aforementioned BEFORE
triggers, default expressions, etc. It might remove some security
exposure, because the old behavior could potentially expose some
other role besides the one directly modifying the table.
There was discussion of making a larger change, such as running as
the trigger's owner. However, that would break the common idiom of
capturing the value of CURRENT_USER in a trigger for auditing/logging
purposes. This change will make no difference in the typical scenario
where the current role doesn't change before commit.
Arguably this is a bug fix, but it seems too big a semantic change
to consider for back-patching.

When scanning existing AfterTriggerSharedData records in search
of a match to the event being queued, we were examining the
records from oldest to newest. But it makes more sense to do
the opposite. The newest record is likely to be from the current
query, while the oldest is likely to be from some previous command
in the same transaction, which will likely have different details.
There aren't expected to be very many active AfterTriggerSharedData
records at once, so that this change is unlikely to make any
spectacular difference. Still, having added a nontrivially-expensive
bms_equal call to this loop yesterday, I feel a need to shave cycles
where possible.
