From 609f96ef24a63fc18b3d639e5532273b38bf7f5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rowley Date: Mon, 3 May 2021 16:31:29 +1200 Subject: [PATCH v4] Add planner support for ORDER BY aggregates ORDER BY aggreagtes have, since implemented in Postgres, been executed by always performing a sort in nodeAgg.c to sort the tuples in the current group into the correct order before calling the transition function on the sorted results. This was not great as often there might be an index that could have provided pre-sorted input and allowed the transition functions to be called as the rows come in, rather than having to store them in a tuplestore in order to sort them later. Here we get the planner on-board with picking a plan that provides pre-sorted inputs to ORDER BY aggregates. Since there can be many ORDER BY aggregates in any given query level, it's very possible that we can't find an order that suits all aggregates. The sort order the the planner chooses is simply the one that suits the most aggregate functions. We take the most strictly sorted variation of each order and see how many aggregate functions can use that, then we try again with the order of the remaining aggregates to see if another order would suit more aggregate functions. For example: SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY a,b) ... would request the sort order to be {a, b} because {a} is a subset of the sort order of {a,b}, but; SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY c) ... would just pick a plan ordered by {a}. SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY b),agg3(a ORDER BY b) ... would choose to order by {b} since two aggregates suit that vs just one that requires order by {a}. Making DISTINCT aggregates work requires a bit more work. Those are still handled the traditional way by performing a sort inside nodeAgg.c --- src/backend/executor/execExpr.c | 27 ++- src/backend/executor/nodeAgg.c | 20 ++- src/backend/nodes/copyfuncs.c | 1 + src/backend/nodes/equalfuncs.c | 1 + src/backend/nodes/outfuncs.c | 1 + src/backend/nodes/readfuncs.c | 1 + src/backend/optimizer/plan/planagg.c | 2 +- src/backend/optimizer/plan/planner.c | 154 ++++++++++++++++++ src/backend/optimizer/prep/prepagg.c | 7 +- src/include/executor/nodeAgg.h | 5 + src/include/nodes/pathnodes.h | 8 +- src/include/nodes/primnodes.h | 4 + src/test/regress/expected/aggregates.out | 60 +++++++ .../regress/expected/partition_aggregate.out | 8 +- src/test/regress/sql/aggregates.sql | 33 ++++ 15 files changed, 312 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/executor/execExpr.c b/src/backend/executor/execExpr.c index 2c8c414a14..a6e9c48f11 100644 --- a/src/backend/executor/execExpr.c +++ b/src/backend/executor/execExpr.c @@ -3417,13 +3417,16 @@ ExecBuildAggTrans(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerPhase phase, scratch.resnull = &state->resnull; } argno++; + + Assert(pertrans->numInputs == argno); } - else if (pertrans->numSortCols == 0) + else if (!pertrans->aggsortrequired) { ListCell *arg; /* - * Normal transition function without ORDER BY / DISTINCT. + * Normal transition function without ORDER BY / DISTINCT or with + * ORDER BY but the planner has given us pre-sorted input. */ strictargs = trans_fcinfo->args + 1; @@ -3431,6 +3434,13 @@ ExecBuildAggTrans(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerPhase phase, { TargetEntry *source_tle = (TargetEntry *) lfirst(arg); + /* + * Don't initialize args for any ORDER BY clause that might + * exist in a presorted aggregate. + */ + if (argno == pertrans->numTransInputs) + break; + /* * Start from 1, since the 0th arg will be the transition * value @@ -3440,11 +3450,13 @@ ExecBuildAggTrans(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerPhase phase, &trans_fcinfo->args[argno + 1].isnull); argno++; } + Assert(pertrans->numTransInputs == argno); } else if (pertrans->numInputs == 1) { /* - * DISTINCT and/or ORDER BY case, with a single column sorted on. + * Non-presorted DISTINCT and/or ORDER BY case, with a single + * column sorted on. */ TargetEntry *source_tle = (TargetEntry *) linitial(pertrans->aggref->args); @@ -3456,11 +3468,14 @@ ExecBuildAggTrans(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerPhase phase, &state->resnull); strictnulls = &state->resnull; argno++; + + Assert(pertrans->numInputs == argno); } else { /* - * DISTINCT and/or ORDER BY case, with multiple columns sorted on. + * Non-presorted DISTINCT and/or ORDER BY case, with multiple + * columns sorted on. */ Datum *values = pertrans->sortslot->tts_values; bool *nulls = pertrans->sortslot->tts_isnull; @@ -3476,8 +3491,8 @@ ExecBuildAggTrans(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerPhase phase, &values[argno], &nulls[argno]); argno++; } + Assert(pertrans->numInputs == argno); } - Assert(pertrans->numInputs == argno); /* * For a strict transfn, nothing happens when there's a NULL input; we @@ -3638,7 +3653,7 @@ ExecBuildAggTransCall(ExprState *state, AggState *aggstate, * process_ordered_aggregate_{single, multi} and * advance_transition_function. */ - if (pertrans->numSortCols == 0) + if (!pertrans->aggsortrequired) { if (pertrans->transtypeByVal) { diff --git a/src/backend/executor/nodeAgg.c b/src/backend/executor/nodeAgg.c index 914b02ceee..e28d53c17b 100644 --- a/src/backend/executor/nodeAgg.c +++ b/src/backend/executor/nodeAgg.c @@ -602,7 +602,7 @@ initialize_aggregate(AggState *aggstate, AggStatePerTrans pertrans, /* * Start a fresh sort operation for each DISTINCT/ORDER BY aggregate. */ - if (pertrans->numSortCols > 0) + if (pertrans->aggsortrequired) { /* * In case of rescan, maybe there could be an uncompleted sort @@ -1328,7 +1328,7 @@ finalize_aggregates(AggState *aggstate, pergroupstate = &pergroup[transno]; - if (pertrans->numSortCols > 0) + if (pertrans->aggsortrequired) { Assert(aggstate->aggstrategy != AGG_HASHED && aggstate->aggstrategy != AGG_MIXED); @@ -4220,6 +4220,11 @@ build_pertrans_for_aggref(AggStatePerTrans pertrans, * stick them into arrays.
