2024-09-10Introduce an RTE for the grouping stepRichard Guo
If there are subqueries in the grouping expressions, each of these subqueries in the targetlist and HAVING clause is expanded into distinct SubPlan nodes. As a result, only one of these SubPlan nodes would be converted to reference to the grouping key column output by the Agg node; others would have to get evaluated afresh. This is not efficient, and with grouping sets this can cause wrong results issues in cases where they should go to NULL because they are from the wrong grouping set. Furthermore, during re-evaluation, these SubPlan nodes might use nulled column values from grouping sets, which is not correct. This issue is not limited to subqueries. For other types of expressions that are part of grouping items, if they are transformed into another form during preprocessing, they may fail to match lower target items. This can also lead to wrong results with grouping sets. To fix this issue, we introduce a new kind of RTE representing the output of the grouping step, with columns that are the Vars or expressions being grouped on. In the parser, we replace the grouping expressions in the targetlist and HAVING clause with Vars referencing this new RTE, so that the output of the parser directly expresses the semantic requirement that the grouping expressions be gotten from the grouping output rather than computed some other way. In the planner, we first preprocess all the columns of this new RTE and then replace any Vars in the targetlist and HAVING clause that reference this new RTE with the underlying grouping expressions, so that we will have only one instance of a SubPlan node for each subquery contained in the grouping expressions. Bump catversion because this changes the querytree produced by the parser. Thanks to Tom Lane for the idea to invent a new kind of RTE. Per reports from Geoff Winkless, Tobias Wendorff, Richard Guo from various threads.

2022-09-20Revise tree-walk APIs to improve spec compliance & silence warnings.Tom Lane
expression_tree_walker and allied functions have traditionally declared their callback functions as, say, "bool (*walker) ()" to allow for variation in the declared types of the callback functions' context argument. This is apparently going to be forbidden by the next version of the C standard, and the latest version of clang warns about that. In any case it's always been pretty poor for error-detection purposes, so fixing it is a good thing to do. What we want to do is change the callback argument declarations to be like "bool (*walker) (Node *node, void *context)", which is correct so far as expression_tree_walker and friends are concerned, but not change the actual callback functions. Strict compliance with the C standard would require changing them to declare their arguments as "void *context" and then cast to the appropriate context struct type internally. That'd be very invasive and it would also introduce a bunch of opportunities for future bugs, since we'd no longer have any check that the correct sort of context object is passed by outside callers or internal recursion cases. Therefore, we're just going to ignore the standard's position that "void *" isn't necessarily compatible with struct pointers. No machine built in the last forty or so years actually behaves that way, so it's not worth introducing bug hazards for compatibility with long-dead hardware. Therefore, to silence these compiler warnings, introduce a layer of macro wrappers that cast the supplied function name to the official argument type. Thanks to our use of -Wcast-function-type, this will still produce a warning if the supplied function is seriously incompatible with the required signature, without going as far as the official spec restriction does. This method fixes the problem without any need for source code changes outside nodeFuncs.h/.c. However, it is an ABI break because the physically called functions now have names ending in "_impl". Hence we can only fix it this way in HEAD. In the back branches, we'll have to settle for disabling -Wdeprecated-non-prototype.

2020-08-19Suppress unnecessary RelabelType nodes in yet more cases.Tom Lane
Commit a477bfc1d fixed eval_const_expressions() to ensure that it didn't generate unnecessary RelabelType nodes, but I failed to notice that some other places in the planner had the same issue. Really noplace in the planner should be using plain makeRelabelType(), for fear of generating expressions that should be equal() to semantically equivalent trees, but aren't. An example is that because canonicalize_ec_expression() failed to be careful about this, we could end up with an equivalence class containing both a plain Const, and a Const-with-RelabelType representing exactly the same value. So far as I can tell this led to no visible misbehavior, but we did waste a bunch of cycles generating and evaluating "Const = Const-with-RelabelType" to prove such entries are redundant. Hence, move the support function added by a477bfc1d to where it can be more generally useful, and use it in the places where planner code previously used makeRelabelType. Back-patch to v12, like the previous patch. While I have no concrete evidence of any real misbehavior here, it's certainly possible that I overlooked a case where equivalent expressions that aren't equal() could cause a user-visible problem. In any case carrying extra RelabelType nodes through planning to execution isn't very desirable. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]

2019-12-14Prevent overly-aggressive collapsing of joins to RTE_RESULT relations.Tom Lane
The RTE_RESULT simplification logic added by commit 4be058fe9 had a flaw: it would collapse out a RTE_RESULT that is due to compute a PlaceHolderVar, and reassign the PHV to the parent join level, even if another input relation of the join contained a lateral reference to the PHV. That can't work because the PHV would be computed too late. In practice it led to failures of internal sanity checks later in planning (either assertion failures or errors such as "failed to construct the join relation"). To fix, add code to check for the presence of such PHVs in relevant portions of the query tree. Notably, this required refactoring range_table_walker so that a caller could ask to walk individual RTEs not the whole list. (It might be a good idea to refactor range_table_mutator in the same way, if only to keep those functions looking similar; but I didn't do so here as it wasn't necessary for the bug fix.) This exercise also taught me that find_dependent_phvs(), as it stood, could only safely be used on the entire Query, not on subtrees. Adjust its API to reflect that; which in passing allows it to have a fast path for the common case of no PHVs anywhere. Per report from Will Leinweber. Back-patch to v12 where the bug was introduced.

2019-10-03Selectively include window frames in expression walks/mutates.Andrew Gierth
query_tree_walker and query_tree_mutator were skipping the windowClause of the query, without regard for the fact that the startOffset and endOffset in a WindowClause node are expression trees that need to be processed. This was an oversight in commit ec4be2ee6 from 2010 which added the expression fields; the main symptom is that function parameters in window frame clauses don't work in inlined functions. Fix (as conservatively as possible since this needs to not break existing out-of-tree callers) and add tests. Backpatch all the way, since this has been broken since 9.0. Per report from Alastair McKinley; fix by me with kibitzing and review from Tom Lane.

2019-01-29Make some small planner API cleanups.Tom Lane
Move a few very simple node-creation and node-type-testing functions from the planner's clauses.c to nodes/makefuncs and nodes/nodeFuncs. There's nothing planner-specific about them, as evidenced by the number of other places that were using them. While at it, rename and_clause() etc to is_andclause() etc, to clarify that they are node-type-testing functions not node-creation functions. And use "static inline" implementations for the shortest ones. Also, modify flatten_join_alias_vars() and some subsidiary functions to take a Query not a PlannerInfo to define the join structure that Vars should be translated according to. They were only using the "parse" field of the PlannerInfo anyway, so this just requires removing one level of indirection. The advantage is that now parse_agg.c can use flatten_join_alias_vars() without the horrid kluge of creating an incomplete PlannerInfo, which will allow that file to be decoupled from relation.h in a subsequent patch.

2019-01-25Split QTW_EXAMINE_RTES flag into QTW_EXAMINE_RTES_BEFORE/_AFTER.Tom Lane
This change allows callers of query_tree_walker() to choose whether to visit an RTE before or after visiting the contents of the RTE (i.e., prefix or postfix tree order). All existing users of QTW_EXAMINE_RTES want the QTW_EXAMINE_RTES_BEFORE behavior, but an upcoming patch will want QTW_EXAMINE_RTES_AFTER, and it seems like a potentially useful change on its own.

2017-06-21Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

2017-06-21Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

2016-06-10Refactor to reduce code duplication for function property checking.Tom Lane
As noted by Andres Freund, we'd accumulated quite a few similar functions in clauses.c that examine all functions in an expression tree to see if they satisfy some boolean test. Reduce the duplication by inventing a function check_functions_in_node() that applies a simple callback function to each SQL function OID appearing in a given expression node. This also fixes some arguable oversights; for example, contain_mutable_functions() did not check aggregate or window functions for mutability. I doubt that that represents a live bug at the moment, because we don't really consider mutability for aggregates; but it might someday be one. I chose to put check_functions_in_node() in nodeFuncs.c because it seemed like other modules might wish to use it in future. That in turn forced moving set_opfuncid() et al into nodeFuncs.c, as the alternative was for nodeFuncs.c to depend on optimizer/setrefs.c which didn't seem very clean. In passing, teach contain_leaked_vars_walker() about a few more expression node types it can safely look through, and improve the rather messy and undercommented code in has_parallel_hazard_walker().

2013-07-23Move strip_implicit_coercions() from optimizer to nodeFuncs.c.Tom Lane
Use of this function has spread into the parser and rewriter, so it seems like time to pull it out of the optimizer and put it into the more central nodeFuncs module.

2012-03-23Code review for protransform patches.Tom Lane
Fix loss of previous expression-simplification work when a transform function fires: we must not simply revert to untransformed input tree. Instead build a dummy FuncExpr node to pass to the transform function. This has the additional advantage of providing a simpler, more uniform API for transform functions. Move documentation to a somewhat less buried spot, relocate some poorly-placed code, be more wary of null constants and invalid typmod values, add an opr_sanity check on protransform function signatures, and some other minor cosmetic adjustments. Note: although this patch touches pg_proc.h, no need for catversion bump, because the changes are cosmetic and don't actually change the intended catalog contents.

2011-03-20Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation.Tom Lane
All expression nodes now have an explicit output-collation field, unless they are known to only return a noncollatable data type (such as boolean or record). Also, nodes that can invoke collation-aware functions store a separate field that is the collation value to pass to the function. This avoids confusion that arises when a function has collatable inputs and noncollatable output type, or vice versa. Also, replace the parser's on-the-fly collation assignment method with a post-pass over the completed expression tree. This allows us to use a more complex (and hopefully more nearly spec-compliant) assignment rule without paying for it in extra storage in every expression node. Fix assorted bugs in the planner's handling of collations by making collation one of the defining properties of an EquivalenceClass and by converting CollateExprs into discardable RelabelType nodes during expression preprocessing.

These might or might not get done for 8.4, but even without them it's a pretty useful feature.

2008-08-28Extend the parser location infrastructure to include a location field inTom Lane
most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types. Per my proposal of a few days ago.
