093e5c57d5 Add writeback to pg_stat_io
28e626bde00 added the concept of IOOps but neglected to include writeback
operations. ac8d53dae5 added time spent doing these I/O operations. Without
counting writeback, checkpointer write time in the log often differed
substantially from that in pg_stat_io. To fix this, add IOOp IOOP_WRITEBACK
and track writeback in pg_stat_io.

0ecb87e1fa Remove io prefix from pg_stat_io columns
a9c70b46 added the statistics view pg_stat_io which contained columns
"io_context" and "io_object".  Given that the columns are in the
pg_stat_io view, the "io" prefix is somewhat redundant, so remove it.

The code variables referring to these fields are kept unchanged so as
they can keep their context about I/O.

6633cfb216 De-Revert "Add support for Kerberos credential delegation"
This reverts commit 3d03b24c3 (Revert Add support for Kerberos
credential delegation) which was committed on the grounds of concern
about portability, but on further review and discussion, it's clear that
we are better off explicitly requiring MIT Kerberos as that appears to
be the only GSSAPI library currently that's under proper maintenance
and ongoing development.  The API used for storing credentials was added
to MIT Kerberos over a decade ago while for the other libraries which
appear to be mainly based on Heimdal, which exists explicitly to be a
re-implementation of MIT Kerberos, the API never made it to a released
version (even though it was added to the Heimdal git repo over 5 years
ago..).

This post-feature-freeze change was approved by the RMT.

This reverts commit 3d4fa227bce4294ce1cc214b4a9d3b7caa3f0454.

Per discussion and buildfarm, this depends on APIs that seem to not
be available on at least one platform (NetBSD).  Should be certainly
possible to rework to be optional on that platform if necessary but bit
late for that at this point.

26669757b6 Handle logical slot conflicts on standby
During WAL replay on the standby, when a conflict with a logical slot is
identified, invalidate such slots. There are two sources of conflicts:
1) Using the information added in 6af1793954e, logical slots are invalidated if
   required rows are removed
2) wal_level on the primary server is reduced to below logical

Uses the infrastructure introduced in the prior commit. FIXME: add commit
reference.

Change InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot() to use a recovery conflict to
interrupt use of a slot, if called in the startup process. The new recovery
conflict is added to pg_stat_database_conflicts, as confl_active_logicalslot.

See 6af1793954e for an overall design of logical decoding on a standby.

Bumps catversion for the addition of the pg_stat_database_conflicts column.
Bumps PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID for the same reason.

3d4fa227bc Add support for Kerberos credential delegation
Support GSSAPI/Kerberos credentials being delegated to the server by a
client.  With this, a user authenticating to PostgreSQL using Kerberos
(GSSAPI) credentials can choose to delegate their credentials to the
PostgreSQL server (which can choose to accept them, or not), allowing
the server to then use those delegated credentials to connect to
another service, such as with postgres_fdw or dblink or theoretically
any other service which is able to be authenticated using Kerberos.

Both postgres_fdw and dblink are changed to allow non-superuser
password-less connections but only when GSSAPI credentials have been
delegated to the server by the client and GSSAPI is used to
authenticate to the remote system.

This combines the tracking for pgBufferUsage with the tracking for pg_stat_io

8089517ab8 Rename fields in pgstat structures for functions and relations
This commit renames the members of a few pgstat structures related to
functions and relations, by respectively removing their prefix "f_" and
"t_".  The statistics for functions and relations and handled in their
own file, and pgstatfuncs.c associates each field in a structure
variable named based on the object type handled, so no information is
lost with this rename.

This will help with some of the refactoring aimed for pgstatfuncs.c, as
this makes more consistent the field names with the SQL functions
retrieving them.

version going to a new heap page, leaving behind an original version
whose t_ctid points to the new version.  The current count is shown by
the n_tup_newpage_upd column of each of the pg_stat_*_tables views.

The new n_tup_newpage_upd column complements the existing n_tup_hot_upd
and n_tup_upd columns.  Tables that have high n_tup_newpage_upd values
(relative to n_tup_upd) are good candidates for tuning heap fillfactor.

728560db7d Suppress compiler warnings in new pgstats code.
Some clang versions whine about comparing an enum variable to
a value outside the range of the enum, on the grounds that the
result must be constant.  In the cases we fix here, the loops
will terminate only if the enum variable can in fact hold a
value one beyond its declared range.  While that's very likely
to always be true for these enum types, it still seems like a
poor coding practice to assume it; so use "int" loop variables
instead to silence the warnings.  (This matches what we've done
in other places, for example loops over the range of ForkNumber.)

While at it, let's drop the XXX_FIRST macros for these enums and just
write zeroes for the loop start values.  The apparent flexibility
seems rather illusory given that iterating up to one-less-than-
the-number-of-values is only correct for a zero-based range.

a9c70b46db Add pg_stat_io view, providing more detailed IO statistics
Builds on 28e626bde00 and f30d62c2fc6. See the former for motivation.

Rows of the view show IO operations for a particular backend type, IO target
object, IO context combination (e.g. a client backend's operations on
permanent relations in shared buffers) and each column in the view is the
total number of IO Operations done (e.g. writes). So a cell in the view would
be, for example, the number of blocks of relation data written from shared
buffers by client backends since the last stats reset.

In anticipation of tracking WAL IO and non-block-oriented IO (such as
temporary file IO), the "op_bytes" column specifies the unit of the "reads",
"writes", and "extends" columns for a given row.

Rows for combinations of IO operation, backend type, target object and context
that never occur, are ommitted entirely. For example, checkpointer will never
operate on temporary relations.

Similarly, if an IO operation never occurs for such a combination, the IO
operation's cell will be null, to distinguish from 0 observed IO
operations. For example, bgwriter should not perform reads.

Note that some of the cells in the view are redundant with fields in
pg_stat_bgwriter (e.g. buffers_backend). For now, these have been kept for
backwards compatibility.

28e626bde0 pgstat: Infrastructure for more detailed IO statistics
This commit adds the infrastructure for more detailed IO statistics. The calls
to actually count IOs, a system view to access the new statistics,
documentation and tests will be added in subsequent commits, to make review
easier.

While we already had some IO statistics, e.g. in pg_stat_bgwriter and
pg_stat_database, they did not provide sufficient detail to understand what
the main sources of IO are, or whether configuration changes could avoid
IO. E.g., pg_stat_bgwriter.buffers_backend does contain the number of buffers
written out by a backend, but as that includes extending relations (always
done by backends) and writes triggered by the use of buffer access strategies,
it cannot easily be used to tune background writer or checkpointer. Similarly,
pg_stat_database.blks_read cannot easily be used to tune shared_buffers /
compute a cache hit ratio, as the use of buffer access strategies will often
prevent a large fraction of the read blocks to end up in shared_buffers.

The new IO statistics count IO operations (evict, extend, fsync, read, reuse,
and write), and are aggregated for each combination of backend type (backend,
autovacuum worker, bgwriter, etc), target object of the IO (relations, temp
relations) and context of the IO (normal, vacuum, bulkread, bulkwrite).

What is tracked in this series of patches, is sufficient to perform the
aforementioned analyses. Further details, e.g. tracking the number of buffer
hits, would make that even easier, but was left out for now, to keep the scope
of the already large patchset manageable.

this field is NULL, it indicates that the process is a leader apply
worker or a synchronization worker. The new column makes it easier to
distinguish parallel apply workers from other kinds of workers and helps
to identify the leader for the parallel workers corresponding to a
particular subscription.

Additionally, update the leader_pid column in pg_stat_activity as well to
display the PID of the leader apply worker for parallel apply workers.

c037471832 pgstat: Track time of the last scan of a relation
It can be useful to know when a relation has last been used, e.g., when
evaluating whether an index is still required. It was already possible to
infer the time of the last usage by tracking, e.g.,
pg_stat_all_indexes.idx_scan over time. But far from everybody does so.

To make it easier to detect the last time a relation has been scanned, track
that time in each relation's pgstat entry. To minimize overhead a) the
timestamp is updated only when the backend pending stats entry is flushed to
shared stats b) the last transaction's stop timestamp is used as the
timestamp.

d7e39d72ca Use actual backend IDs in pg_stat_get_backend_idset() and friends.
Up to now, the ID values returned by pg_stat_get_backend_idset() and
used by pg_stat_get_backend_activity() and allied functions were just
indexes into a local array of sessions seen by the last stats refresh.
This is problematic for a few reasons.  The "ID" of a session can vary
over its existence, which is surprising.  Also, while these numbers
often match the "backend ID" used for purposes like temp schema
assignment, that isn't reliably true.  We can fairly cheaply switch
things around to make these numbers actually be the sessions' backend
IDs.  The added test case illustrates that with this definition, the
temp schema used by a given session can be obtained given its PID.

While here, delete some dead code that guarded against getting
a NULL return from pgstat_fetch_stat_local_beentry().  That can't
happen as long as the caller is careful to pass an in-range array
index, as all the callers are.  (This code may not have been dead
when written, but it surely is now.)

5dc0418fab Prefetch data referenced by the WAL, take II.
Introduce a new GUC recovery_prefetch.  When enabled, look ahead in the
WAL and try to initiate asynchronous reading of referenced data blocks
that are not yet cached in our buffer pool.  For now, this is done with
posix_fadvise(), which has several caveats.  Since not all OSes have
that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where
available.  Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later
work.

Set to "try" for now for test coverage.  Default setting to be finalized
before release.

The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in
bytes of decoded data.

The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number
of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to
infer that I/Os have begun and completed.  We'll also not look more than
maintenance_io_concurrency * 4 block references ahead.

0f96965c65 pgstat: add pg_stat_force_next_flush(), use it to simplify tests.
In the stats collector days it was hard to write tests for the stats system,
because fundamentally delivery of stats messages over UDP was not
synchronous (nor guaranteed). Now we easily can force pending stats updates to
be flushed synchronously.

This moves stats.sql into a parallel group, there isn't a reason for it to run
in isolation anymore. And it may shake out some bugs.

5891c7a8ed pgstat: store statistics in shared memory.
Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and
shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These
files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a
second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful
statistics.

Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered
objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared
memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory.

The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture.

The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it.

By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a
prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked
statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On
systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite
expensive.

Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not
necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down
replica.

Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add
tests.

8fb580a35c pgstat: prepare APIs used by pgstatfuncs for shared memory stats.
With the introduction of PgStat_Kind PgStat_Single_Reset_Type,
PgStat_Shared_Reset_Target don't make sense anymore. Replace them with
PgStat_Kind.

Instead of having dedicated reset functions for different kinds of stats, use
two generic helper routines (one to reset all stats of a kind, one to reset
one stats entry).

A number of reset functions were named pgstat_reset_*_counter(), despite
affecting multiple counters. The generic helper routines get rid of
pgstat_reset_single_counter(), pgstat_reset_subscription_counter().

Rename pgstat_reset_slru_counter(), pgstat_reset_replslot_counter() to
pgstat_reset_slru(), pgstat_reset_replslot() respectively, and have them only
deal with a single SLRU/slot. Resetting all SLRUs/slots goes through the
generic pgstat_reset_of_kind().

Previously pg_stat_reset_replication_slot() used SearchNamedReplicationSlot()
to check if a slot exists. API wise it seems better to move that to
pgstat_replslot.c.

This is done separately from the - quite large - shared memory statistics
patch to make review easier.

9e98583898 Create routine able to set single-call SRFs for Materialize mode
Set-returning functions that use the Materialize mode, creating a
tuplestore to include all the tuples returned in a set rather than doing
so in multiple calls, use roughly the same set of steps to prepare
ReturnSetInfo for this job:
- Check if ReturnSetInfo supports returning a tuplestore and if the
materialize mode is enabled.
- Create a tuplestore for all the tuples part of the returned set in the
per-query memory context, stored in ReturnSetInfo->setResult.
- Build a tuple descriptor mostly from get_call_result_type(), then
stored in ReturnSetInfo->setDesc.  Note that there are some cases where
the SRF's tuple descriptor has to be the one specified by the function
caller.

This refactoring is done so as there are (well, should be) no behavior
changes in any of the in-core functions refactored, and the centralized
function that checks and sets up the function's ReturnSetInfo can be
controlled with a set of bits32 options.  Two of them prove to be
necessary now:
- SRF_SINGLE_USE_EXPECTED to use expectedDesc as tuple descriptor, as
expected by the function's caller.
- SRF_SINGLE_BLESS to validate the tuple descriptor for the SRF.

The same initialization pattern is simplified in 28 places per my
count as of src/backend/, shaving up to ~900 lines of code.  These
mostly come from the removal of the per-query initializations and the
sanity checks now grouped in a single location.  There are more
locations that could be simplified in contrib/, that are left for a
follow-up cleanup.

fcc2817, 07daca5 and d61a361 have prepared the areas of the code related
to this change, to ease this refactoring.

7a85073290 Reconsider pg_stat_subscription_workers view.
It was decided (refer to the Discussion link below) that the stats
collector is not an appropriate place to store the error information of
subscription workers.

This patch changes the pg_stat_subscription_workers view (introduced by
commit 8d74fc96db) so that it stores only statistics counters:
apply_error_count and sync_error_count, and has one entry for
each subscription. The removed error information such as error-XID and
the error message would be stored in another way in the future which is
more reliable and persistent.

After removing these error details, there is no longer any relation
information, so the subscription statistics are now a cluster-wide
statistics.

The patch also changes the view name to pg_stat_subscription_stats since
the word "worker" is an implementation detail that we use one worker for
one tablesync and one apply.

d61a361d1a Remove all traces of tuplestore_donestoring() in the C code
This routine is a no-op since dd04e95 from 2003, with a macro kept
around for compatibility purposes.  This has led to the same code
patterns being copy-pasted around for no effect, sometimes in confusing
ways like in pg_logical_slot_get_changes_guts() from logical.c where the
code was actually incorrect.

This issue has been discussed on two different threads recently, so
rather than living with this legacy, remove any uses of this routine in
the C code to simplify things.  The compatibility macro is kept to avoid
breaking any out-of-core modules that depend on it.

8d74fc96db Add a view to show the stats of subscription workers.
This commit adds a new system view pg_stat_subscription_workers, that
shows information about any errors which occur during the application of
logical replication changes as well as during performing initial table
synchronization. The subscription statistics entries are removed when the
corresponding subscription is removed.

It also adds an SQL function pg_stat_reset_subscription_worker() to reset
single subscription errors.

The contents of this view can be used by an upcoming patch that skips the
particular transaction that conflicts with the existing data on the
subscriber.

This view can be extended in the future to track other xact related
statistics like the number of xacts committed/aborted for subscription
workers.

1bc8e7b099 pgstat: split reporting/fetching of bgwriter and checkpointer stats.
These have been unrelated since bgwriter and checkpointer were split into two
processes in 806a2aee379. As there several pending patches (shared memory
stats, extending the set of tracked IO / buffer statistics) that are made a
bit more awkward by the grouping, split them. Done separately to make
reviewing easier.

This does *not* change the contents of pg_stat_bgwriter or move fields out of
bgwriter/checkpointer stats that arguably do not belong in either. However
pgstat_fetch_global() was renamed and split into
pgstat_fetch_stat_checkpointer() and pgstat_fetch_stat_bgwriter().

3fa17d3771 Use HTAB for replication slot statistics.
Previously, we used to use the array of size max_replication_slots to
store stats for replication slots. But that had two problems in the cases
where a message for dropping a slot gets lost: 1) the stats for the new
slot are not recorded if the array is full and 2) writing beyond the end
of the array if the user reduces the max_replication_slots.

This commit uses HTAB for replication slot statistics, resolving both
problems. Now, pgstat_vacuum_stat() search for all the dead replication
slots in stats hashtable and tell the collector to remove them. To avoid
showing the stats for the already-dropped slots, pg_stat_replication_slots
view searches slot stats by the slot name taken from pg_replication_slots.

Also, we send a message for creating a slot at slot creation, initializing
the stats. This reduces the possibility that the stats are accumulated
into the old slot stats when a message for dropping a slot gets lost.
