  PortalCleanup(), which would call executor shutdown code, which could fail and

  8561e4840c81f7e345be2df170839846814fa004, which did not want to mark an active

Tom Lane pushed:

- Make plpgsql use its DTYPE_REC code paths for composite-type variables.
  Formerly, DTYPE_REC was used only for variables declared as "record";
  variables of named composite types used DTYPE_ROW, which is faster for some
  purposes but much less flexible.  In particular, the ROW code paths are
  entirely incapable of dealing with DDL-caused changes to the number or data
  types of the columns of a row variable, once a particular plpgsql function has
  been parsed for the first time in a session.  And, since the stored
  representation of a ROW isn't a tuple, there wasn't any easy way to deal with
  variables of domain-over-composite types, since the domain constraint checking
  code would expect the value to be checked to be a tuple.  A lesser, but still
  real, annoyance is that ROW format cannot represent a true NULL composite
  value, only a row of per-field NULL values, which is not exactly the same
  thing.  Hence, switch to using DTYPE_REC for all composite-typed variables,
  whether "record", named composite type, or domain over named composite type.
  DTYPE_ROW remains but is used only for its native purpose, to represent a
  fixed-at-compile-time list of variables, for instance the targets of an INTO
  clause.  To accomplish this without taking significant performance losses,
  introduce infrastructure that allows storing composite-type variables as
  "expanded objects", similar to the "expanded array" infrastructure introduced
  in commit 1dc5ebc90.  A composite variable's value is thereby kept (most of
  the time) in the form of separate Datums, so that field accesses and updates
  are not much more expensive than they were in the ROW format.  This holds the
  line, more or less, on performance of variables of named composite types in
  field-access-intensive microbenchmarks, and makes variables declared "record"
  perform much better than before in similar tests.  In addition, the logic
  involved with enforcing composite-domain constraints against updates of
  individual fields is in the expanded record infrastructure not plpgsql proper,
  so that it might be reusable for other purposes.  In further support of this,
  introduce a typcache feature for assigning a unique-within-process identifier
  to each distinct tuple descriptor of interest; in particular, DDL alterations
  on composite types result in a new identifier for that type.  This allows very
  cheap detection of the need to refresh tupdesc-dependent data.  This improves
  on the "tupDescSeqNo" idea I had in commit 687f096ea: that assigned
  identifying sequence numbers to successive versions of individual composite
  types, but the numbers were not unique across different types, nor was there
  support for assigning numbers to registered record types.  In passing, allow
  plpgsql functions to accept as well as return type "record".  There was no
  good reason for the old restriction, and it was out of step with most of the
  other PLs.  Tom Lane, reviewed by Pavel Stehule Discussion:
  https://postgr.es/m/8962.1514399547@sss.pgh.pa.us
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/4b93f57999a2ca9b9c9e573ea32ab1aeaa8bf496

- Speed up plpgsql function startup by doing fewer pallocs.  Previously,
  copy_plpgsql_datum did a separate palloc for each variable needing
  instance-local storage.  In simple benchmarks this made for a noticeable
  fraction of the total runtime.  Improve it by precalculating the space needed
  for all of a function's variables and doing just one palloc for all of them.
  In passing, remove PLPGSQL_DTYPE_EXPR from the list of plpgsql "datum" types,
  since in fact it has nothing in common with the others, and there is noplace
  that needs to discriminate on the basis of dtype between an expression and any
  type of datum.  And add comments clarifying which datum struct fields are
  generic and which aren't.  Tom Lane, reviewed by Pavel Stehule Discussion:

  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/40301c1c8bcbe92a9ba9bf017da03e83476ae0e5

- Speed up plpgsql trigger startup by introducing "promises".  Over the years
  we've accreted quite a few special variables that are predefined in plpgsql
  trigger functions.  The cost of initializing these variables to their defined
  values turns out to be a significant part of the runtime of simple triggers;
  but, undoubtedly, most real-world triggers never examine the values of most of
  these variables.  To improve matters, invent the notion of a variable that has
  a "promise" attached to it, specifying which of the predetermined values
  should be assigned to the variable if anything ever reads it.  This eliminates
  all the unneeded startup overhead, in return for a small penalty on accesses
  to these variables.  Tom Lane, reviewed by Pavel Stehule Discussion:

  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/fd333bc763ea104f2a2c10c6b0061c996d4a2f5a

- Support CONSTANT/NOT NULL/initial value for plpgsql composite variables.
  These features were never implemented previously for composite or record
  variables ... not that the documentation admitted it, so there's no doc
  updates here.  This also fixes some issues concerning enforcing DOMAIN NOT
  NULL constraints against plpgsql variables, although I'm not sure that that
  topic is completely dealt with.  I created a new plpgsql test file for these
  features, and moved the one relevant existing test case into that file.  Tom
  Lane, reviewed by Daniel Gustafsson Discussion:
  https://postgr.es/m/18362.1514605650@sss.pgh.pa.us
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/f9263006d871d127794a402a7bef713fdd882156

- Fix broken logic for reporting PL/Python function names in errcontext.
  plpython_error_callback() reported the name of the function associated with
  the topmost PL/Python execution context.  This was not merely wrong if there
  were nested PL/Python contexts, but it risked a core dump if the topmost one
  is an inline code block rather than a named function.  That will have proname
  = NULL, and so we were passing a NULL pointer to snprintf("%s").  It seems
  that none of the PL/Python-testing machines in the buildfarm will dump core
  for that, but some platforms do, as reported by Marina Polyakova.
  Investigation finds that there actually is an existing regression test that
  used to prove that the behavior was wrong, though apparently no one had
  noticed that it was printing the wrong function name.  It stopped showing the
  problem in 9.6 when we adjusted psql to not print CONTEXT by default for
  NOTICE messages.  The problem is masked (if your platform avoids the core
  dump) in error cases, because PL/Python will throw away the originally
  generated error info in favor of a new traceback produced at the outer level.
  Repair by using ErrorContextCallback.arg to pass the correct context to the
  error callback.  Add a regression test illustrating correct behavior.
  Back-patch to all supported branches, since they're all broken this way.

- Add an assertion that we don't pass NULL to snprintf("%s").  Per commit
  e748e902d, we appear to have little or no coverage in the buildfarm of
  machines that will dump core when asked to printf a null string pointer.
  Let's try to improve that situation by adding an assertion that will make
  src/port/snprintf.c behave that way.  Since it's just an assertion, it won't
  break anything in production builds, but it will help developers find this
  type of oversight.  Note that while our buildfarm coverage of machines that
  use that snprintf implementation is pretty thin on the Unix side (apparently
  amounting only to gaur/pademelon), all of the MSVC critters use it.

- Silence assorted "variable may be used uninitialized" warnings.  All of these
  are false positives, but in each case a fair amount of analysis is needed to
  see that, and it's not too surprising that not all compilers are smart enough.
  (In particular, in the logtape.c case, a compiler lacking the knowledge
  provided by the Assert would almost surely complain, so that this warning will
  be seen in any non-assert build.) Some of these are of long standing while
  others are pretty recent, but it only seems worth fixing them in HEAD.  Jaime

  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/9a725f7b5cb7e8c8894ef121b49eff9c265245c8

- Stabilize new plpgsql_record regression tests.  The buildfarm's
  CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS animals aren't happy with some of the test cases added in
  commit 4b93f5799.  There are two different problems: * In two places, a
  different CONTEXT stack is shown because the error is detected in a different
  place, due to recompiling an expression from scratch rather than re-using a
  previously cached plan for it.  I fixed these via the expedient of hiding the
  CONTEXT stack altogether.  * In one place, a test expected to fail (because a
  cached plan hadn't been updated) actually succeeds (because the forced
  recompile makes it good).  I couldn't think of a simple workaround for this,
  so I've just commented out that test step altogether.  I have hopes of
  improving things enough that both of these kluges can be reverted eventually.
  The first one is the same kind of problem previously discussed at
  https://postgr.es/m/31545.1512924904@sss.pgh.pa.us but there was insufficient
  agreement about how to fix it, so we just hacked around the output instability
  (commit 9edc97b71).  The second issue should be fixed by allowing the plan to
  be rebuilt when a type conflict is detected.  But for today, let's just make
  the buildfarm green again.
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/feb1cc5593a5188796c2f52241f407500209fff2

- Revert "Stabilize output of new regression test case".  This effectively
  reverts commit 9edc97b71 (although the test is now in a different place and
  has different contents).  We don't need that hack anymore, because since
  commit 4b93f5799, this test case no longer throws an error and so there's no
  displayed CONTEXT that could vary depending on CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.  The
  underlying unstable-output problem isn't really gone, of course, but it no
  longer manifests here.
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/cbadba8dd632fc0d4162f7d686fec631bce7dfd0

- Move the extern declaration for ExceptionalCondition into c.h.  This is the
  logical conclusion of our decision to support Assert() in both frontend and
  backend code: it should be possible to use that after including just c.h.  But
  as things were arranged before, if you wanted to use Assert() in code that
  might be compiled for either environment, you had to include postgres.h for
  the backend case.  Let's simplify that.  Per buildfarm, some of whose members
  started throwing warnings after commit 0c62356cc added an Assert in
  src/port/snprintf.c.  It's possible that some other src/port files that use
  the stanza #ifndef FRONTEND #include "postgres.h" #else #include
  "postgres_fe.h" #endif could now be simplified to just say '#include "c.h"'.
  I have not tested for that, though, and it'd be unlikely to apply for more
  than a small number of them.
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/03c5a00ea3867f5736da6cedce73b1eea88a98af

- Cast to void in StaticAssertExpr, not its callers.  Seems a bit silly that
  many (in fact all, as of today) uses of StaticAssertExpr would need to cast it
  to void to avoid warnings from pickier compilers.  Let's just do the cast
  right in the macro, instead.  In passing, change StaticAssertExpr to
  StaticAssertStmt in one place where that seems more apropos.  Discussion:

- Doc: fix minor bug in CREATE TABLE example.  One example in create_table.sgml
  claimed to be showing table constraint syntax, but it was really column
  constraint syntax due to the omission of a comma.  This is both wrong and
  confusing, so fix it in all supported branches.  Per report from
  neil@postgrescompare.com.  Discussion:

  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/439c7bc1a070d746fab69d8696fca78673e64ba9

- Fix plpgsql to enforce domain checks when returning a NULL domain value.  If a
  plpgsql function is declared to return a domain type, and the domain's
  constraints forbid a null value, it was nonetheless possible to return NULL,
  because we didn't bother to check the constraints for a null result.  I'd
  noticed this while fooling with domains-over-composite, but had not gotten
  around to fixing it immediately.  Add a regression test script exercising this
  and various other domain cases, largely borrowed from the plpython_types test.
  Although this is clearly a bug fix, I'm not sure whether anyone would thank us
  for changing the behavior in stable branches, so I'm inclined not to
  back-patch.
  https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/51db0d18fbf58b0c2e5ebc2b5b2c48daf45c8d93

- Remove some inappropriate #includes.  Other header files should never #include
  postgres.h (nor postgres_fe.h, nor c.h), per project policy.  Also, there's no
  need for any backend .c file to explicitly include elog.h or palloc.h, because
  postgres.h pulls those in already.  Extracted from a larger patch by Kyotaro
  Horiguchi.  The rest of the removals he suggests require more study, but these
  are no-brainers.  Discussion:

Andres Freund pushed:

- Return implementation defined value if pg_$op_s$bit_overflow overflows.  Some
  older compilers otherwise sometimes complain about undefined values, even
  though the return value should not be used in the overflow case.  We assume
  that any decent compiler will optimize away the unnecessary assignment in
  performance critical cases.  We do not want to restrain the returned value to
  a specific value, e.g. 0 or the wrapped-around value, because some fast ways
  to implement overflow detecting math do not easily allow for that (e.g. msvc
  intrinsics).  As the function documentation already documents the returned
  value in case of intrinsics to be implementation defined, no documentation has
  to be updated.  Per complaint from Tom Lane and his buildfarm member
  prairiedog.  Author: Andres Freund Discussion:

- Revert "Do execGrouping.c via expression eval machinery.".  This reverts
  commit 773aec7aa98abd38d6d9435913bb8e14e392c274.  There's an unresolved issue
  in the reverted commit: It only creates one comparator function, but in for
  the nodeSubplan.c case we need more (c.f. FindTupleHashEntry vs
  LookupTupleHashEntry calls in nodeSubplan.c).  This isn't too difficult to
  fix, but it's not entirely trivial either. The fact that the issue only causes
  breakage on 32bit systems shows that the current test coverage isn't that
  great.  To avoid turning half the buildfarm red till those two issues are
  addressed, revert.

- Allow tupleslots to have a fixed tupledesc, use in executor nodes.  The reason
  for doing so is that it will allow expression evaluation to optimize based on
  the underlying tupledesc. In particular it will allow to JIT tuple deforming
  together with the expression itself.  For that expression initialization needs
  to be moved after the relevant slots are initialized - mostly unproblematic,
  except in the case of nodeWorktablescan.c.  After doing so there's no need for
  ExecAssignResultType() and ExecAssignResultTypeFromTL() anymore, as all former
  callers have been converted to create a slot with a fixed descriptor.  When
  creating a slot with a fixed descriptor, tts_values/isnull can be allocated
  together with the main slot, reducing allocation overhead and increasing cache
  density a bit.  Author: Andres Freund Discussion:
