* PG-592: Treat queries with different parent queries as separate entries
1. Previously pg_stat_monitor had a `topquery` and `topqueryid` field, but it was only a sample:
it showed one of the top queries executing the specific query.
With this change, the same entry executed by two different functions will result in two entries in the statistics table.
2. This also fixes a bug where the content of these field disappeared for every second query executed:
previously the update function changed topqueryid to `0` if it was non zero, and changed it to the proper id when it was 0.
This resulted in an alternating behavior, where for every second executed query the top query disappeared.
After these changes, the top query is always shown.
3. The previous implementation also leaked dsa memory used to store the parent queries. This is now also fixed.
* PG-502: Fixing review comments
* dsa_free changed to assert as it can never happen
* restructured the ifs to be cleaner
Note: kept the two-level ifs, as that makes more sense with the assert
Note: didn't convert nested_level checks to macro, as it is used differently at different parts of the code
* PG-502: Fixing review comments
* PG-592 Add regression test
* Make test compatible with PG12
* Remove redundant line

A potential lock contention could've been caused when an OOM warning
was being emitted by the pgsm_store function. This could lead the
pg_store_error function calling pgsm_store function and thereby trying
to acquire and exclusive lock when a shared was already by the same
process. This warning is now guarded by protection block.
PG-624: pg_stat_monitor: Possible server crash when running pgbench
with pg_stat_monitor loaded
It appears that this issue was being caused by improper handling of
dynamic number of buckets. This commit resolves the issue.
Also, as part of a larger cleanup, memory context has been moved to
local space from shared storage. Also, some unwanted
and no-longer-needed variables are removed.

The return value for snprintf was incorrectly being recorded as plan
length. That's been resolved.
As part of this fix, we've also elminated the possibility of a potential
memory leak when plan text was being saved.

* PG-607: Allow histogram to track queries in sub-ms time brackets
Updated the GUC configuration and the relevant histogram functionality
to track queries in lower cardinality than ms. This is done by saving
the GUC values for histogram min and max values in real (double) type.
All test cases except for the 030 tap test are passing. The test case
needs an update.
* Fixing regression issues for v12 and below because of histogram changes.
* PG-606: New GUC required for enabling/disabling of pgsm_query_id calculation
Adds a new GUC pg_stat_monitor.pgsm_enable_pgsm_query_id to enable/disable
pgsm query id calculation. Apart from that patch also refactors the GUC-related
code to match PostgreSQL conventions.
Moreover, the commit also changes the pgsm_enable_overflow GUC to boolean
instead of enum.
Saving the client IP address once per the lifetime of a backend. This avoid
the expensive operation multiple times, and hence improving performance
significantly.
Performance related changes where some calculations are moved out
of the spinlock in the pgsm_update_entry function. This should
improve the performance a bit.
Also, moved the histogram calculation function to init. The update
function now only searches an array rather than recalculatiing the
histogram bucket timings.
Updated conditional statement to update parent query only when
required.
Saving the client IP address once per the lifetime of a backend. This avoid
the expensive operation multiple times, and hence improving performance
significantly.
This bug uncovered serious issues with how the data was being stored by PSGM.
So it require a complete redesign.
pg_stat_monitor now stores the data locally within the backend process's local
memory. The data is only stored when the query completes. This reduces the
number of lock acquisitions that were previously needed during various stages
of the execution. Also, this avoids data loss in case the current bucket
changes during execution. Also, the unavailability of jumble state during later
stages of executions was causing pg_stat_monitor to save non-normalized query.
This was a major problem as well.
pg_stat_monitor specific memory context is implemented. It is used for saving
data locally. The context memory callback helps us clear the locally saved data
so that we do not store it multiple times in the shared hash.
As part of this major rewrite, pgss reference in function and variable names
is changed to pgsm. Memory footprint for the entries is reduced, data types
are corrected where needed, and we've removed unused variables, functions and
macros.

Disallow V1 API to be used with V2.0 lib and remove pg_stat_monitor--1.0.sql
as part of that. A few adjustments to 1.x to 2.0 upgrade script are also
part of the commit
Resolved the issue with histogram outlier buckets. Also updated
the printing of bucket ranges to be in correct set notation with
reference to brackets. The lower bounds of buckets always have an
exclusive range except for the first bucket, and the upper bounds
always have an inclusive value.
( or ) => exclusive
{ or } => inclusive
The entire range is enclosed within the {} brackets.
for utility statements as well
Added the necessary capture of resource usage in the process
utility function. We are now storing CPU and user timings for a
utility statement.
As an observability tool that serves data to other tools, data must be output without any loss. So rounding off causes data loss and rounding off errors when comparing different columns.
Therefore, it was decided to eliminate rounding off when outputting values. Any consumer of this data should round off data to whatever precision it prefers.
This behaviour is also consistent with pg_stat_statements.
There is no specific test case where I can either reproduce or validate
the fix. Though, one of the suspects is this condition in pgss_store.
Therefore removed, and it requires verification.
Replaced the error on server start with a warning. The functionality
now handles "pgsm_histogram_buckets" as the maximum number of histogram
buckets to be created. On init, pg_stat_monitor calculates the max
number of buckets that can be created within the given min/max time
range. If the number is below the user configuration, it emits a
warning in the log file stating the number of max buckets set.
Added buckets for queries that take less than minimum histogram time
and one for the ones taking more than the max value specified.
Also, in case the buckets end up overlapping, on server start, an
error will be thrown informing the user of this issue and requesting
a rectification.
Refactored the code to consolidate the calculations in a single
function.
* PG-543: pg_stat_monitor: PostgreSQL's pg_stat_statements compatible view.
The view now carries all the columns as pg_stat_statements. This required fixing
data types of some of the columns, renaming a few, as well inclusion of new
columns to make the view fully compatible with pg_stat_statements.
* PG-543: pg_stat_monitor: PostgreSQL's pg_stat_statements compatible view.
Updating the upgrade sql file from 1.0 to 2.0 version linked with this issue
changes.
* PG-543: pg_stat_monitor: PostgreSQL's pg_stat_statements compatible view.
Updating datum calls to use UInt64 rather than Int64.
* PG-582: blk_read_time and blk_write_time are not being rounded.
Added the round off within the internal function so that values for
blk_read_time, blk_write_time are rounded off to 4 decimal places.
Additionally, added rounding off for the PG15+ columns of
temp_blk_read_time and temp_blk_write_time.
* PG-582: blk_read_time and blk_write_time are not being rounded.
Added rounding off for four JIT related columns introduced for PG15.
The bucket start time reported by pg_stat_monitor does not match the PG time and
timezone. The fix is to use TimestampTz for recording the bucket start time.
pgsm_get_ss() must only be called when pg_stat_monitor.so is loaded.
Fix is to move the pgsm_get_ss() call after checking if the pg_stat_monotor
library is loaded or not.
* PG-488: pg_stat_monitor: Overflow management.
Reimplement the storage mechanism of buckets (for PG-15 onward) and query texts
using Dynamic shared memory. Since the dynamic shared memory can grow into a
swap area, so we get the overflow out of the box.
As PostgreSQL versions prior to V15 does not support sequence scan on dynamic
shared memory hashes, so older versions has to live with the classic shared
memory hash for storing the buckets.
Another noteworthy change with the new design is: it saves the query pointer
inside the bucket, and eventually, the query text gets evicted with the bucket
recycle.
Finally, the dynamic shared memory hash has a built-in locking mechanism, so we
can revisit the whole locking in pg_stat_monitor has the potential for lots of
performance improvements.

queryid creation mechanism.
Resolving the crash identified by regression and reported by Naeem.
This fix resolves the issue with incorrect query length in case of
normalized query when the query length exceeds PGSM_QUERY_MAX_LEN.
Resolving the crash identify by regression and reported by Naeem.
Regardless of the database or the user, the same query will yield the
same query ID. As part of this, a new column, 'pgsm_query_id', is added.
* pgsm_query_id:
pgsm_query_id has the same data type of int8 as the queryid column. If
the incoming SQL command includes any constants, it internally normalizes
the query to remove those constant values with placeholders. Otherwise,
it uses the query directly to generate the query hash.
Since we no longer depend on the server's parse tree mechanism, we can
generate the same hash for the same query text for all server versions.
Also, it is important to note that the hash being calculated is a database,
schema and user independent. So same query text in different databases
will generate the same hash.
This column is not part of the key; rather, for observability purposes only.
* Regression
SQL test case pgsm_query_id.sql is added to the SQL regression.

Removing the view for 2.0. Updating the required SQL files to manage
the upgrade. Downgrade from 2.x to 1.x is not supported.
Also part of this fix is the SQL regression. This does not update the
