pgsql: Fix a gradual memory leak in ExecReScanAgg(). - Mailing list pgsql-committers

Log Message:
-----------
Fix a gradual memory leak in ExecReScanAgg(). Because the aggregation
hash table is allocated in a child context of the agg node's memory
context, MemoryContextReset() will reset but *not* delete the child
context. Since ExecReScanAgg() proceeds to build a new hash table
from scratch (in a new sub-context), this results in leaking the
header for the previous memory context. Therefore, use
MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren() instead.

Credit: My colleague Sailesh Krishnamurthy at Truviso for isolating
the cause of the leak.
