We used to have externs for getopt() and its API variables scattered
all over the place. Now that we find we're going to need to tweak the
variable declarations for Cygwin, it seems like a good idea to have
just one place to tweak.
In this commit, the variables are declared "#ifndef HAVE_GETOPT_H".
That may or may not work everywhere, but we'll soon find out.

If --progress=2148 or higher was given, the calculation of the next time
to report overflowed, and pgbench would print a progress report very
frequently.
Kingter Wang
Integer overflow showed minus percent and minus remaining time something like this.
239300000 of 3800000000 tuples (-48%) done (elapsed 226.86 s, remaining -696.10 s).
pgbench formerly failed on lines longer than BUFSIZ, unexpectedly
splitting them into multiple commands. Allow it to work with any
length of input line.

Isolate transaction latency (elapsed time between submitting first
command and receiving response to last command) from client-side delays
pertaining to the --rate schedule. Under --rate, report schedule lag as
defined in the documentation. Report latency standard deviation
whenever we collect the measurements to do so. All of these changes
affect --progress messages and the final report.

This controls the target transaction rate to certain tps, rather than
maximum. Patch contributed by Fabien COELHO, reviewed by Greg Smith,
and slight editing by me.
Make slightly better decisions about indentation than what pgindent
is capable of. Mostly breaking out long function calls into one
line per argument, with a few other minor adjustments.
No functional changes- all whitespace.
pgindent ran cleanly (didn't change anything) after.
Passes all regressions.
We had two copies of this function in the backend and libpq, which was
already pretty bogus, but it turns out that we need it in some other
programs that don't use libpq (such as pg_test_fsync). So put it where
it probably should have been all along. The signal-mask-initialization
support in src/backend/libpq/pqsignal.c stays where it is, though, since
we only need that in the backend.
libpgcommon is a new static library to allow sharing code among the
various frontend programs and backend; this lets us eliminate duplicate
implementations of common routines. We avoid libpgport, because that's
intended as a place for porting issues; per discussion, it seems better
to keep them separate.
The first use case, and the only implemented by this patch, is pg_malloc
and friends, which many frontend programs were already using.
At the same time, we can use this to provide palloc emulation functions
for the frontend; this way, some palloc-using files in the backend can
also be used by the frontend cleanly. To do this, we change palloc() in
the backend to be a function instead of a macro on top of
MemoryContextAlloc(). This was previously believed to cause loss of
performance, but this implementation has been tweaked by Tom and Andres
so that on modern compilers it provides a slight improvement over the
previous one.
This lets us clean up some places that were already with
localized hacks.
Most of the pg_malloc/palloc changes in this patch were authored by
Andres Freund. Zoltán Böszörményi also independently provided a form of
that. libpgcommon infrastructure was authored by Álvaro.
The new option specifies length of aggregation interval (in
seconds). May be used only together with -l. With this option, the log
contains per-interval summary (number of transactions, min/max latency
and two additional fields useful for variance estimation).
Patch contributed by Tomas Vondra, reviewed by Pavel Stehule. Slight
change by Tatsuo Ishii, suggested by Robert Hass to emit an error
message indicating that the option is not currently supported on
Windows.
Beyond 21474, the number of accounts exceed the range for int4. Change the
initialization code to use bigint for account id columns when scale is large
enough, and switch to using int64s for the variables in pgbench code. The
threshold where we switch to bigints is set at 20000, because that's easier
to remember and document than 21474, and ensures that there is some headroom
when int4s are used.

Singh and Satoshi Nagayasu.
(-i), producing only one progress message per 5 seconds along with
elapsed time and estimated remaining time. Also add elapsed time and
estimated remaining time to the default logging(prints one message
each 100000 rows).

This allows logging only some fraction of transactions, greatly reducing
the amount of log generated.

On some platforms these functions return NULL, rather than the more common
practice of returning a pointer to a zero-sized block of memory. Hack our
various wrapper functions to hide the difference by substituting a size
request of 1. This is probably not so important for the callers, who
should never touch the block anyway if they asked for size 0 --- but it's
important for the wrapper functions themselves, which mistakenly treated
the NULL result as an out-of-memory failure. This broke at least pg_dump
for the case of no user-defined aggregates, as per report from
Matthew Carrington.
Back-patch to 9.2 to fix the pg_dump issue. Given the lack of previous
complaints, it seems likely that there is no live bug in previous releases,
even though some of these functions were in place before that.
We had a number of variants on the theme of "malloc or die", with the
majority named like "pg_malloc", but by no means all. Standardize on the
names pg_malloc, pg_malloc0, pg_realloc, pg_strdup. Get rid of pg_calloc
entirely in favor of using pg_malloc0.
This is an essentially cosmetic change, so no back-patch. (I did find
a couple of places where psql and pg_dump were using plain malloc or
strdup instead of the pg_ versions, but they don't look significant
enough to bother back-patching.)
This is apparently faster than doing things the other way around when
the scale factor is large.
Along the way, adjust -n to suppress vacuuming during initialization
as well as during test runs.
Jeff Janes, with some small changes by me.
These days, even a wimpy system can insert 10000 tuples in the blink of
an eye, so there's no real need for this much verbosity.
Per complaint from Tatsuo Ishii.
The option --foreign-keys, used at initialization time, will create foreign
key constraints for the columns that represent references to other tables'
primary keys. This can help in benchmarking FK performance.
Jeff Janes
Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.
The old check against MAX_RANDOM_VALUE is clearly irrelevant since
getrand() no longer calls random(). Instead, check whether min and max
are close enough together to avoid an overflow inside getrand(), as
suggested by Tom Lane. This is still somewhat silly, because we're
using atoi(), which doesn't check for overflow anyway and (at least on
my system) will cheerfully return 0 when given "4294967296". But that's
a problem for another commit.
glibc renders random() thread-safe by wrapping a futex lock around it;
testing reveals that this limits the performance of pgbench on machines
with many CPU cores. Rather than switching to random_r(), which is
only available on GNU systems and crashes unless you use undocumented
alchemy to initialize the random state properly, switch to our built-in
implementation of erand48(), which is both thread-safe and concurrent.
Since the list of reasons not to use the operating system's erand48()
is getting rather long, rename ours to pg_erand48() (and similarly
for our implementations of lrand48() and srand48()) and just always
use those. We were already doing this on Cygwin anyway, and the
glibc implementation is not quite thread-safe, so pgbench wouldn't
be able to use that either.
Per discussion with Tom Lane.
