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.)

Patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo for review.

<title>Fix calculation of which GENERATED columns need to be updated.</title>

We were identifying the updatable generated columns of inheritance
children by transposing the calculation made for their parent.
However, there's nothing that says a traditional-inheritance child
can't have generated columns that aren't there in its parent, or that
have different dependencies than are in the parent's expression.
(At present it seems that we don't enforce that for partitioning
either, which is likely wrong to some degree or other; but the case
clearly needs to be handled with traditional inheritance.)

Hence, drop the very-klugy-anyway "extraUpdatedCols" RTE field
in favor of identifying which generated columns depend on updated
columns during executor startup.  In HEAD we can remove
extraUpdatedCols altogether; in back branches, it's still there but
always empty.  Another difference between the HEAD and back-branch
versions of this patch is that in HEAD we can add the new bitmap field
to ResultRelInfo, but that would cause an ABI break in back branches.
Like 4b3e37993, add a List field at the end of struct EState instead.

Back-patch to v13.  The bogus calculation is also being made in v12,
but it doesn't have the same visible effect because we don't use it
to decide which generated columns to recalculate; as a consequence of
which the patch doesn't apply easily.  I think that there might still
be a demonstrable bug associated with trigger firing conditions, but
that's such a weird corner-case usage that I'm content to leave it
unfixed in v12.

<title>Rework query relation permission checking</title>

Currently, information about the permissions to be checked on relations
mentioned in a query is stored in their range table entries.  So the
executor must scan the entire range table looking for relations that
need to have permissions checked.  This can make the permission checking
part of the executor initialization needlessly expensive when many
inheritance children are present in the range range.  While the
permissions need not be checked on the individual child relations, the
executor still must visit every range table entry to filter them out.

This commit moves the permission checking information out of the range
table entries into a new plan node called RTEPermissionInfo.  Every
top-level (inheritance "root") RTE_RELATION entry in the range table
gets one and a list of those is maintained alongside the range table.
This new list is initialized by the parser when initializing the range
table.  The rewriter can add more entries to it as rules/views are
expanded.  Finally, the planner combines the lists of the individual
subqueries into one flat list that is passed to the executor for
checking.

To make it quick to find the RTEPermissionInfo entry belonging to a
given relation, RangeTblEntry gets a new Index field 'perminfoindex'
that stores the corresponding RTEPermissionInfo's index in the query's
list of the latter.

ExecutorCheckPerms_hook has gained another List * argument; the
signature is now:
typedef bool (*ExecutorCheckPerms_hook_type) (List *rangeTable,
					      List *rtePermInfos,
					      bool ereport_on_violation);
The first argument is no longer used by any in-core uses of the hook,
but we leave it in place because there may be other implementations that
do.  Implementations should likely scan the rtePermInfos list to
determine which operations to allow or deny.

Make sure that function declarations use names that exactly match the
corresponding names from function definitions in optimizer, parser,
utility, libpq, and "commands" code, as well as in remaining library
code.  Do the same for all code related to frontend programs (with the
exception of pg_dump/pg_dumpall related code).

Like other recent commits that cleaned up function parameter names, this
commit was written with help from clang-tidy.  Later commits will handle
ecpg and pg_dump/pg_dumpall.

<id>86dc90056dfdbd9d1b891718d2e5614e3e432f35</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch makes two closely related sets of changes:

1. For UPDATE, the subplan of the ModifyTable node now only delivers
the new values of the changed columns (i.e., the expressions computed
in the query's SET clause) plus row identity information such as CTID.
ModifyTable must re-fetch the original tuple to merge in the old
values of any unchanged columns.  The core advantage of this is that
the changed columns are uniform across all tables of an inherited or
partitioned target relation, whereas the other columns might not be.
A secondary advantage, when the UPDATE involves joins, is that less
data needs to pass through the plan tree.  The disadvantage of course
is an extra fetch of each tuple to be updated.  However, that seems to
be very nearly free in context; even worst-case tests don't show it to
add more than a couple percent to the total query cost.  At some point
it might be interesting to combine the re-fetch with the tuple access
that ModifyTable must do anyway to mark the old tuple dead; but that
would require a good deal of refactoring and it seems it wouldn't buy
all that much, so this patch doesn't attempt it.

2. For inherited UPDATE/DELETE, instead of generating a separate
subplan for each target relation, we now generate a single subplan
that is just exactly like a SELECT's plan, then stick ModifyTable
on top of that.  To let ModifyTable know which target relation a
given incoming row refers to, a tableoid junk column is added to
the row identity information.  This gets rid of the horrid hack
that was inheritance_planner(), eliminating O(N^2) planning cost
and memory consumption in cases where there were many unprunable
target relations.

Point 2 of course requires point 1, so that there is a uniform
definition of the non-junk columns to be returned by the subplan.
We can't insist on uniform definition of the row identity junk
columns however, if we want to keep the ability to have both
plain and foreign tables in a partitioning hierarchy.  Since
it wouldn't scale very far to have every child table have its
own row identity column, this patch includes provisions to merge
similar row identity columns into one column of the subplan result.
In particular, we can merge the whole-row Vars typically used as
row identity by FDWs into one column by pretending they are type
RECORD.  (It's still okay for the actual composite Datums to be
labeled with the table's rowtype OID, though.)

There is more that can be done to file down residual inefficiencies
in this patch, but it seems to be committable now.

FDW authors should note several API changes:

* The argument list for AddForeignUpdateTargets() has changed, and so
has the method it must use for adding junk columns to the query.  Call
add_row_identity_var() instead of manipulating the parse tree directly.
You might want to reconsider exactly what you're adding, too.

* PlanDirectModify() must now work a little harder to find the
ForeignScan plan node; if the foreign table is part of a partitioning
hierarchy then the ForeignScan might not be the direct child of
ModifyTable.  See postgres_fdw for sample code.

* To check whether a relation is a target relation, it's no
longer sufficient to compare its relid to root-&gt;parse-&gt;resultRelation.
Instead, check it against all_result_relids or leaf_result_relids,
as appropriate.

This adds the SQL standard feature that adds the SEARCH and CYCLE

depth-first search orders and detect cycles.  These clauses can be
rewritten into queries using existing syntax, and that is what this
patch does in the rewriter.
