via PostgreSQL::Test::Cluster, but once started they can be manipulated by
the new helper functions which intend to make querying easier. A sample

be seen below.

It was pointed out that pg_buffercache_summary()'s report of
the overall average usage count isn't that useful, and what
would be more helpful in many cases is to report totals for
each possible usage count. Add a new function to do it like
that. Since pg_buffercache 1.4 is already new for v16,
we don't need to create a new extension version; we'll just
define this as part of 1.4.

pg_stat_statements relies on EState->es_processed to count the number of
rows processed by ExecutorRun(). This proves to be a problem under the
extended query protocol when the result of a query is fetched through
more than one call of ExecutorRun(), as es_processed is reset each time
ExecutorRun() is called. This causes pg_stat_statements to report the
number of rows calculated in the last execute fetch, rather than the
global sum of all the rows processed.
As pquery.c tells, this is a problem when a portal does not use
holdStore. For example, DMLs with RETURNING would report a correct
tuple count as these do one execution cycle when the query is first
executed to fill in the portal's store with one ExecutorRun(), feeding
on the portal's store for each follow-up execute fetch depending on the
fetch size requested by the client.
The fix proposed for this issue is simple with the addition of an extra
counter in EState that's preserved across multiple ExecutorRun() calls,
incremented with the value calculated in es_processed. This approach is
not back-patchable, unfortunately.
Note that libpq does not currently give any way to control the fetch
size when using the extended v3 protocol, meaning that in-core testing
is not possible yet. This issue can be easily verified with the JDBC
driver, though, with *autocommit disabled*. Hence, having in-core tests
requires more features, left for future discussion:
- At least two new libpq routines splitting PQsendQueryGuts(), one for
the bind/describe and a second for a series of execute fetches with a
custom fetch size, likely in a fashion similar to what JDBC does.
- A psql meta-command for the execute phase. This part is not strictly
mandatory, still it could be handy.

Allow users to opt out of returning FPI data and block data from
pg_get_wal_block_info as an optimization. Testing has shown that this
can make function execution over twice as fast in some cases.
When pg_get_wal_block_info is called with "show_data := false", it
always returns NULL values for its block_data and block_fpi_data bytea
output parameters. Nothing else changes. In particular, the function
will still return the usual per-block summary of block data/FPI space
overhead. Use of "show_data := false" is therefore feasible with all
queries that don't specifically require these raw binary strings.
Follow-up to recent work in commit 122376f0. There still hasn't been a
stable release with the pg_get_wal_block_info function, so no bump in
the pg_walinspect extension version.

Expand the output parameters in pg_walinspect's pg_get_wal_block_info
function to return additional information that was previously only
available from pg_walinspect's pg_get_wal_records_info function. Some
of the details are attributed to individual block references, rather
than aggregated into whole-record values, since the function returns one
row per block reference per WAL record (unlike pg_get_wal_records_info,
which always returns one row per WAL record).
This structure is much easier to work with when writing queries that
track how individual blocks changed over time, or when attributing costs
to individual blocks (not WAL records) is useful.
This is the second time that pg_get_wal_block_info has been enhanced in
recent weeks. Commit 9ecb134a expanded on the original version of the
function added in commit c31cf1c0 (where it first appeared under the
name pg_get_wal_fpi_info). There still hasn't been a stable release
since commit c31cf1c0, so no bump in the pg_walinspect extension

Commit bbc1376b39 checked that if
a redirected line pointer pointed to a tuple, the tuple should be
marked both HEAP_ONLY_TUPLE and HEAP_UPDATED. But Andres Freund
pointed out that *any* tuple that is marked HEAP_ONLY_TUPLE should
be marked HEAP_UPDATED, not just one that is the target of a
redirected line pointer. Do that instead.
To see why this is better, consider a redirect line pointer A
which points to a heap-only tuple B which points (via CTID)
to another heap-only tuple C. With the old code, we'd complain
if B was not marked HEAP_UPDATED, but with this change, we'll
complain if either B or C is not marked HEAP_UPDATED.
(Note that, with or without this commit, if either B or C were
not marked HEAP_ONLY_TUPLE, we would also complain about that.)

Commit bbc1376b39 added a new lp_valid[]
array which records whether or not a line pointer was thought to be
valid, but entries could sometimes get set to true in cases where that
wasn't actually safe. Fix that.
Suppose A is a redirect line pointer and B is the other line pointer
to which it points. The old code could mishandle this situation in a
couple of different ways. First, if B was unused, we'd complain about
corruption but still set lp_valid[A] = true, causing later code
to try to access the B as if it were pointing to a tuple. Second,
if B was dead, we wouldn't complain about corruption at all, which is
an oversight, and would also set lp_valid[A] = true, which would
again confuse later code. Fix all that.
In the case where B is a redirect, the old code was correct, but
refactor things a bit anyway so that all of these cases are handled
more symmetrically. Also add an Assert() and some comments.

In such cases, get_xid_status() doesn't set its output parameter (the
third argument), so we shouldn't fall through to code which will test
the value of that parameter. There are five existing calls to
get_xid_status(), three of which seem to already handle this case
properly. This commit tries to fix the other two.
If we're checking xmin and find that it is invalid (i.e. 0) just
report that as corruption, similar to what's already done in the
three cases that seem correct. If we're checking xmax and find
that's invalid, that's fine: it just means that the tuple hasn't
been updated or deleted.

We shouldn't set successor[whatever] to an offset number that is less
than FirstOffsetNumber or more than maxoff. We already avoided that
for redirects, but not for CTID links. Allowing bad offset numbers
into the successor[] array causes core dumps.
We shouldn't use HeapTupleHeaderIsHotUpdated() because it checks
stuff other than the status of the infomask2 bit HEAP_HOT_UPDATED.
We only care about the status of that bit, not the other stuff
that HeapTupleHeaderIsHotUpdated() checks. This mistake can cause
verify_heapam() to report corruption when none is present.

This commit reworks a bit the set-returning functions of pg_walinspect,
making them more flexible regarding their end LSN:
- pg_get_wal_records_info()
- pg_get_wal_stats()
- pg_get_wal_block_info()
The end LSNs given to these functions is now handled so as a value
higher than the current LSN of the cluster (insert LSN for a primary, or
replay LSN for a standby) does not raise an error, giving more
flexibility to monitoring queries. Instead, the functions return
results up to the current LSN, as found at the beginning of each
function call.
As an effect of that, pg_get_wal_records_info_till_end_of_wal() and
pg_get_wal_stats_till_end_of_wal() are now removed from 1.1, as the
existing, equivalent functions are able to offer the same

This commit reworks pg_get_wal_fpi_info() to become aware of all the
block information that can be attached to a record rather than just its
full-page writes:
- Addition of the block id as assigned by XLogRegisterBuffer(),
XLogRegisterBlock() or XLogRegisterBufData().
- Addition of the block data, as bytea, or NULL if none. The length of
the block data can be guessed with length(), so there is no need to
store its length in a separate field.
- Addition of the full-page image length, as counted without a hole or
even compressed.
- Modification of the handling of the full-page image data. This is
still a bytea, but it could become NULL if none is assigned to a block.
- Addition of the full-page image flags, tracking if a page is stored
with a hole, if it needs to be applied and the type of compression
applied to it, as of all the BKPIMAGE_* values in xlogrecord.h.
The information of each block is returned as one single record, with the
record's ReadRecPtr included to be able to join the block information
with the existing pg_get_wal_records_info(). Note that it is perfectly
possible for a block to hold both data and full-page image.

The view just added by commit 53fe7e6cb decompiles differently
in v15 than HEAD (presumably as a consequence of 47bb9db75).
That causes failures in cross-version upgrade testing.
We could teach AdjustUpgrade.pm to compensate for that, but it
seems less painful to just drop the view after we're done with it.
Per buildfarm.
pg_input_error_info() is now a SQL function able to return a row with
more than just the error message generated for incorrect data type
inputs when these are able to handle soft failures, returning more
contents of ErrorData, as of:
- The error message (same as before).
- The error detail, if set.
- The error hint, if set.
- SQL error code.
All the regression tests that relied on pg_input_error_message() are
updated to reflect the effects of the rename.

postgres_fdw will close its remote session if an sinval cache reset
occurs, since it's possible that that means some FDW parameters
changed. We had two tests that were trying to ensure that the
session remains alive by setting debug_discard_caches = 0; but
that's not sufficient. Even though the tests seem stable enough
in the buildfarm, they flap a lot under CI.
In the first test, which is checking the ability to recover from
a lost connection, we can stabilize the results by just not
caring whether pg_terminate_backend() finds a victim backend.
If a reset did happen, there won't be a session to terminate
anymore, but the test can proceed anyway. (Arguably, we are
then not testing the unintentional-disconnect case, but as long
as that scenario is exercised in most runs I think it's fine;
testing the reset-driven case is of value too.)
In the second test, which is trying to verify the application_name
displayed in pg_stat_activity by a remote session, we had a race
condition in that the remote session might go away before we can
fetch its pg_stat_activity entry. We can close that race and make
the test more certainly test what it intends to by arranging things
so that the remote session itself fetches its pg_stat_activity entry
(based on PID rather than a somewhat-circular assumption about the
application name).
Both tests now demonstrably pass under debug_discard_caches = 1,
so we can remove that hack.

postgres_fdw.application_name relies on MyProcPort to define the data
that should be added to escape sequences %u (user name) or %d (database
name). However this code could be run in processes that lack a
MyProcPort, like an autovacuum process, causing crashes.
The code generating the application name is made more flexible with this
commit, so as it now generates no data for %u and %d if MyProcPort is
missing, and a simple "unknown" if MyProcPort exists, but the expected
fields are not set.

This commit adds more coverage for utility statements so as it is
possible to track down all the effects of query normalization done for
all the queries that use either Const or A_Const nodes, which are the
nodes where normalization makes the most sense as they apply to
constants (well, most of the time, really).
This set of queries is extracted from an analysis done while looking at
full dumps of the regression database when applying different levels of
normalization to either Const or A_Const nodes for utilities, as of a
minimal set of these, for:
- All relkinds (CREATE, ALTER, DROP)
- Policies
- Cursors
- Triggers
- Types
- Rules
- Statistics
- CALL
- Transaction statements (isolation level, options)
- EXPLAIN
- COPY
Note that pg_stat_statements is not switched yet to show any
normalization for utilities, still it improves the default coverage of
the query jumbling code (not by as much as enabling query jumbling on
the main regression test suite, though):
- queryjumblefuncs.funcs.c: 36.8% => 48.5%
- queryjumblefuncs.switch.c: 33.2% => 43.1%

pg_stat_statements.sql acts as the main file for all the core tests of
the module, but things have become complicated to follow over the years
as some of the sub-scenarios tested in this file rely on assumptions
that come from completely different areas of it, like a GUC setup or a
relation created previously. For example, row tracking for CTAS/COPY
was looking at the number of plans, which was not necessary, or level
tracking was mixed with checks on planner counts.
This commit refactors the tests of pg_stat_statements, by moving test
cases out of pg_stat_statements.sql into their own file, as of:
- Planning-related tests in planning.sql, for [re]plan counts and
top-level handling. These depend on pg_stat_statements.track_planning.
- Utilities in utility.sql (pg_stat_statements.track_utility), that
includes now the tests for:
-- Row tracking for CTAS, CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW, COPY.
-- Basic utility statements.
-- SET statements.
- Tracking level, depending on pg_stat_statements.track. This part has
been looking at scenarios with DO blocks, PL functions and SQL
functions.
pg_stat_statements.sql (still named the same for now) still includes
some checks for role-level tracking and WAL generation metrics, that
ought to become independent in the long term for clarity.
While on it, this switches the order of the attributes when querying
pg_stat_statements, the query field becoming last. This makes much
easier the tracking of changes related to normalization, as queries are
the only variable-length attributes queried (unaligned mode would be one
extra choice, but that reduces the checks on the other fields).
Test scenarios and their results match exactly with what was happening
before this commit in terms of calls, number of plans, number of rows,
cached data or level tracking, so this has no effect on the coverage in
terms of what is produced by the reports in the table
pg_stat_statements. A follow-up patch will extend more the tests of
pg_stat_statements around utilities, so this split creates a foundation
for this purpose, without complicating more pg_stat_statements.sql.

A new callback named startup_cb, called shortly after a module is
loaded, is added. This makes possible the initialization of any
additional state data required by a module. This initial state data can
be saved in a ArchiveModuleState, that is now passed down to all the
callbacks that can be defined in a module. With this design, it is
possible to have a per-module state, aimed at opening the door to the
support of more than one archive module.
The initialization of the callbacks is changed so as
_PG_archive_module_init() does not anymore give in input a
ArchiveModuleCallbacks that a module has to fill in with callback
definitions. Instead, a module now needs to return a const
ArchiveModuleCallbacks.
All the structure and callback definitions of archive modules are moved
into their own header, named archive_module.h, from pgarch.h.
Command-based archiving follows the same line, with a new set of files
named shell_archive.{c,h}.
There are a few more items that are under discussion to improve the
design of archive modules, like the fact that basic_archive calls
sigsetjmp() by itself to define its own error handling flow. These will
be adjusted later, the changes done here cover already a good portion
of what has been discussed.
Any modules created for v15 will need to be adjusted to this new

Like the implementation for node copy, write and read, this node
requires a custom implementation so as the query jumbling is able to
consider the correct value assigned to it, depending on its type (int,
float, bool, string, bitstring).
Based on a dump of pg_stat_statements from the regression database, this
would confuse the query jumbling of the following queries:
- SET.
- COPY TO with SELECT queries.
- START TRANSACTION with different isolation levels.
- ALTER TABLE with default expressions.
- CREATE TABLE with partition bounds.
Note that there may be a long-term argument in tracking the location of
such nodes so as query strings holding such nodes could be normalized,

This commit changes the query jumbling code in queryjumblefuncs.c to be
generated automatically based on the information of the nodes in the
headers of src/include/nodes/ by using gen_node_support.pl. This
approach offers many advantages:
- Support for query jumbling for all the utility statements, based on the
state of their parsed Nodes and not only their query string. This will
greatly ease the switch to normalize the information of some DDLs, like
SET or CALL for example (this is left unchanged and should be part of a
separate discussion). With this feature, the number of entries stored
for utilities in pg_stat_statements is reduced (for example now
"CHECKPOINT" and "checkpoint" mean the same thing with the same query
ID).
- Documentation of query jumbling directly in the structure definition
of the nodes. Since this code has been introduced in pg_stat_statements
and then moved to code, the reasons behind the choices of what should be
included in the jumble are rather sparse. Note that some explanation is
added for the most relevant parts, as a start.
- Overall code reduction and more consistency with the other parts
generating read, write and copy depending on the nodes.
The query jumbling is controlled by a couple of new node attributes,
documented in nodes/nodes.h:
- custom_query_jumble, to mark a Node as having a custom
implementation.
- no_query_jumble, to ignore entirely a Node.
- query_jumble_ignore, to ignore a field in a Node.
- query_jumble_location, to mark a location in a Node, for
normalization. This can apply only to int fields, with "location" in
their name (only Const as of this commit).
There should be no compatibility impact on pg_stat_statements, as the
new code applies the jumbling to the same fields for each node (its
regression tests have no modification, for one).
Some benchmark of the query jumbling between HEAD and this commit for
SELECT and DMLs has proved that this new code does not cause a
performance regression, with computation times close for both methods.
For utility queries, the new method is slower than the previous method
of calculating a hash of the query string, though we are talking about
extra ns-level changes based on what I measured, which is unnoticeable
even for OLTP workloads as a query ID is calculated once per query
post-parse analysis.

EquivalenceClasses are now understood as applying within a "join
domain", which is a set of inner-joined relations (possibly underneath
an outer join). We no longer need to treat an EC from below an outer
join as a second-class citizen.
I have hopes of eventually being able to treat outer-join clauses via
EquivalenceClasses, by means of only applying deductions within the
EC's join domain. There are still problems in the way of that, though,
so for now the reconsider_outer_join_clause logic is still here.
I haven't been able to get rid of RestrictInfo.is_pushed_down either,
but I wonder if that could be recast using JoinDomains.
I had to hack one test case in postgres_fdw.sql to make it still test
what it was meant to, because postgres_fdw is inconsistent about
how it deals with quals containing non-shippable expressions; see
https://postgr.es/m/1691374.1671659838@sss.pgh.pa.us. That should
be improved, but I don't think it's within the scope of this patch
series.

Remove RestrictInfo.nullable_relids, along with a good deal of
infrastructure that calculated it. One use-case for it was in
join_clause_is_movable_to, but we can now replace that usage with
a check to see if the clause's relids include any outer join
that can null the target relation. The other use-case was in
join_clause_is_movable_into, but that test can just be dropped
entirely now that the clause's relids include outer joins.
Furthermore, join_clause_is_movable_into should now be
accurate enough that it will accept anything returned by
generate_join_implied_equalities, so we can restore the Assert
that was diked out in commit 95f4e59c3.
Remove the outerjoin_delayed mechanism. We needed this before to
prevent quals from getting evaluated below outer joins that should
null some of their vars. Now that we consider varnullingrels while
placing quals, that's taken care of automatically, so throw the
whole thing away.
Teach remove_useless_result_rtes to also remove useless FromExprs.
Having done that, the delay_upper_joins flag serves no purpose any
more and we can remove it, largely reverting 11086f2f2.
Use constant TRUE for "dummy" clauses when throwing back outer joins.
This improves on a hack I introduced in commit 6a6522529. If we
have a left-join clause l.x = r.y, and a WHERE clause l.x = constant,
we generate r.y = constant and then don't really have a need for the
join clause. But we must throw the join clause back anyway after
marking it redundant, so that the join search heuristics won't think
this is a clauseless join and avoid it. That was a kluge introduced
under time pressure, and after looking at it I thought of a better
way: let's just introduce constant-TRUE "join clauses" instead,
and get rid of them at the end. This improves the generated plans for
such cases by not having to test a redundant join clause. We can also
get rid of the ugly hack used to mark such clauses as redundant for
selectivity estimation.

Traditionally we used the same Var struct to represent the value
of a table column everywhere in parse and plan trees. This choice
predates our support for SQL outer joins, and it's really a pretty
bad idea with outer joins, because the Var's value can depend on
where it is in the tree: it might go to NULL above an outer join.
So expression nodes that are equal() per equalfuncs.c might not
represent the same value, which is a huge correctness hazard for
the planner.
To improve this, decorate Var nodes with a bitmapset showing
which outer joins (identified by RTE indexes) may have nulled
them at the point in the parse tree where the Var appears.
This allows us to trust that equal() Vars represent the same value.
A certain amount of klugery is still needed to cope with cases
where we re-order two outer joins, but it's possible to make it
work without sacrificing that core principle. PlaceHolderVars
receive similar decoration for the same reason.
In the planner, we include these outer join bitmapsets into the relids
that an expression is considered to depend on, and in consequence also
add outer-join relids to the relids of join RelOptInfos. This allows
us to correctly perceive whether an expression can be calculated above
or below a particular outer join.
This change affects FDWs that want to plan foreign joins. They *must*
follow suit when labeling foreign joins in order to match with the
core planner, but for many purposes (if postgres_fdw is any guide)
they'd prefer to consider only base relations within the join.
To support both requirements, redefine ForeignScan.fs_relids as
base+OJ relids, and add a new field fs_base_relids that's set up by
the core planner.
Large though it is, this commit just does the minimum necessary to
install the new mechanisms and get check-world passing again.
Follow-up patches will perform some cleanup. (The README additions
and comments mention some stuff that will appear in the follow-up.)

When auto_explain.log_verbose is on, auto_explain should print in the
logs plans equivalent to the EXPLAIN (VERBOSE). However, when
compute_query_id is on, query identifiers were not showing up, being
only handled by EXPLAIN (VERBOSE). This brings auto_explain on par with
EXPLAIN regarding that. Note that like EXPLAIN, auto_explain does not
show the query identifier when compute_query_id=regress.
The change is done so as the choice of printing the query identifier is
done in ExplainPrintPlan() rather than in ExplainOnePlan(), to avoid a
duplication of the logic dealing with the query ID. auto_explain is the
only in-core caller of ExplainPrintPlan().
While looking at the area, I have noticed that more consolidation
between EXPLAIN and auto_explain would be in order for the logging of
the plan duration and the buffer usage. This refactoring is left as a
future change.

The rule system needs "old" and/or "new" pseudo-RTEs in rule actions
that are ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Historically it's put such entries
into the ON SELECT rules of views as well, but those are really quite
vestigial. The only thing we've used them for is to carry the
view's relid forward to AcquireExecutorLocks (so that we can
re-lock the view to verify it hasn't changed before re-using a plan)

these fields of the RTE_RELATION RTE for the view even after we
convert it to an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE. This requires a tiny amount of
extra complication in the planner and AcquireExecutorLocks, but on

The principal immediate benefit of doing this, aside from a small

no longer trigger ruleutils.c's heuristic about qualifying variable

Avoid explicitly grouping by columns that we know are redundant
for sorting, for example we need group by only one of x and y in
SELECT ... WHERE x = y GROUP BY x, y
This comes up more often than you might think, as shown by the
changes in the regression tests. It's nearly free to detect too,
since we are just piggybacking on the existing logic that detects
redundant pathkeys. (In some of the existing plans that change,
it's visible that a sort step preceding the grouping step already
didn't bother to sort by the redundant column, making the old plan
a bit silly-looking.)
To do this, build processed_groupClause and processed_distinctClause
lists that omit any provably-redundant sort items, and consult those
not the originals where relevant. This means that within the
planner, one should usually consult root->processed_groupClause or
root->processed_distinctClause if one wants to know which columns
are to be grouped on; but to check whether grouping or distinct-ing
is happening at all, check non-NIL-ness of parse->groupClause or
parse->distinctClause. This is comparable to longstanding rules
about handling the HAVING clause, so I don't think it'll be a huge
maintenance problem.
nodeAgg.c also needs minor mods, because it's now possible to generate
AGG_PLAIN and AGG_SORTED Agg nodes with zero grouping columns.

The unified handling is now that incorrect and unknown placeholders

- archive_command
- recovery_end_command
- restore_command

Check the remote relkind before trying to use TABLESAMPLE to acquire
sample from the remote relation. Even if the remote server version has
TABLESAMPLE support, the foreign table may point to incompatible relkind
(e.g. a view or a sequence).
If the relkind does not support TABLESAMPLE, error out if TABLESAMPLE
was requested specifically (as system/bernoulli), or fallback to random
just like we do for old server versions.
We currently end up disabling sampling for such relkind values anyway,
due to reltuples being -1 or 1, but that seems rather accidental, and
might get broken by improving reltuples estimates, etc. So better to

report on a range of pages rather than just one at a time.
I don't have a huge amount of faith in the portability of the
new test cases, but they do pass in a 32-bit FreeBSD VM here.
Further adjustment may be needed depending on buildfarm results.

When collecting ANALYZE sample on foreign tables, postgres_fdw fetched
all rows and performed the sampling locally. For large tables this means
transferring and immediately discarding large amounts of data.
This commit allows the sampling to be performed on the remote server,
transferring only the much smaller sample. The sampling is performed
using the built-in TABLESAMPLE methods (system, bernoulli) or random()
function, depending on the remote server version.
Remote sampling can be enabled by analyze_sampling on the foreign server
and/or foreign table, with supported values 'off', 'auto', 'system',
'bernoulli' and 'random'. The default value is 'auto' which uses either
'bernoulli' (TABLESAMPLE method) or 'random' (for remote servers without
TABLESAMPLE support).
Fix incorrect code which was trying to convert a Bitmapset of columns at
the attnums according to a parent table and transform them into the
equivalent Bitmapset with same attnums according to the given child table.
This code is new as of a61b1f748 and was failing to do the correct
translation when there was an intermediate parent table between 'rel' and
'top_parent_rel'.

seg stores the number of significant digits in an input number
in a "char" field. If char is signed, and the input is more than
127 digits long, the count can read out as negative causing
seg_out() to print garbage (or, if you're really unlucky,
even crash).
To fix, clamp the digit count to be not more than FLT_DIG.
(In theory this loses some information about what the original
input was, but it doesn't seem like useful information; it would
not survive dump/restore in any case.)
Also, in case there are stored values of the seg type containing
bad data, add a clamp in seg_out's restore() subroutine.
Per bug #17725 from Robins Tharakan. It's been like this
forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.

This shaves some code by replacing the combinations of
CreateTemplateTupleDesc()/TupleDescInitEntry() hardcoding a mapping of
the attributes listed in pg_proc.dat by get_call_result_type() to build
the TupleDesc needed for the rows generated.
get_call_result_type() is more expensive than the former style, but this
removes some duplication with the lists of OUT parameters (pg_proc.dat
and the attributes hardcoded in these code paths). This is applied to
functions that are not considered as critical (aka that could be called
repeatedly for monitoring purposes).

Commit 927f453a9 disallowed batching added by commit b663a4136 to be
used for the inserts performed as part of cross-partition updates of
partitioned tables, mainly because the previous code in
nodeModifyTable.c couldn't handle pending inserts into foreign-table
partitions that are also UPDATE target partitions. But we don't have
such a limitation anymore (cf. commit ffbb7e65a), so let's allow for
this by removing from execPartition.c the restriction added by commit
927f453a9 that batching is only allowed if the query command type is
CMD_INSERT.
In postgres_fdw, since commit 86dc90056 changed it to effectively
disable cross-partition updates in the case where a foreign-table
partition chosen to insert rows into is also an UPDATE target partition,
allow batching in the case where a foreign-table partition chosen to
do so is *not* also an UPDATE target partition. This is enabled by the
"batch_size" option added by commit b663a4136, which is disabled by
default.
This patch also adjusts the test case added by commit 927f453a9 to
confirm that the inserts performed as part of a cross-partition update
of a partitioned table indeed uses batching.

When incremental sorts were added in v13 a 1.5x pessimism factor was added
to the cost modal. Seemingly this was done because the cost modal only
has an estimate of the total number of input rows and the number of
presorted groups. It assumes that the input rows will be evenly
distributed throughout the presorted groups. The 1.5x pessimism factor
was added to slightly reduce the likelihood of incremental sorts being
used in the hope to avoid performance regressions where an incremental
sort plan was picked and turned out slower due to a large skew in the
number of rows in the presorted groups.
An additional quirk with the path generation code meant that we could
consider both a sort and an incremental sort on paths with presorted keys.
This meant that with the pessimism factor, it was possible that we opted
to perform a sort rather than an incremental sort when the given path had
presorted keys.
Here we remove the 1.5x pessimism factor to allow incremental sorts to
have a fairer chance at being chosen against a full sort.
Previously we would generally create a sort path on the cheapest input
path (if that wasn't sorted already) and incremental sort paths on any
path which had presorted keys. This meant that if the cheapest input path
wasn't completely sorted but happened to have presorted keys, we would
create a full sort path *and* an incremental sort path on that input path.
Here we change this logic so that if there are presorted keys, we only
create an incremental sort path, and create sort paths only when a full
sort is required.
Both the removal of the cost pessimism factor and the changes made to the
path generation make it more likely that incremental sorts will now be
chosen. That, of course, as with teaching the planner any new tricks,
means an increased likelihood that the planner will perform an incremental
sort when it's not the best method. Our standard escape hatch for these
cases is an enable_* GUC. enable_incremental_sort already exists for
this.
This came out of a report by Pavel Luzanov where he mentioned that the
master branch was choosing to perform a Seq Scan -> Sort -> Group
Aggregate for his query with an ORDER BY aggregate function. The v15 plan
for his query performed an Index Scan -> Group Aggregate, of course, the
aggregate performed the final sort internally in nodeAgg.c for the
aggregate's ORDER BY. The ideal plan would have been to use the index,
which provided partially sorted input then use an incremental sort to
provide the aggregate with the sorted input. This was not being chosen
due to the pessimism in the incremental sort cost modal, so here we remove
that and rationalize the path generation so that sort and incremental sort
plans don't have to needlessly compete. We assume that it's senseless
to ever use a full sort on a given input path where an incremental sort
can be performed.
