Subject: [PATCH v27 2/8] Add GiST referencedagg support func

This is the thirteenth support function and lets us implement temporal
foreign keys without hardcoding the range_agg function. The support
function should be an aggregate function that takes a type matching the
foreign key's PERIOD element and returns a type that can appear on the
righthand side of a ContainedBy operator, so that for example we can say
`fkperiod <@ range_agg(pkperiod)`.

Subject: [PATCH v27 4/8] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range/multirange/etc column for the temporal component.
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v27 5/8] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return an array of their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

From 05f22ac8900826eb6cf493eba788dcb7346d1140 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH v27 6/8] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v27 8/8] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

I had committed v27-0001-Rename-conwithoutoverlaps-to-conperiod.patch a 
little while ago.

I have reviewed v27-0002 through 0004 now.  I have one semantic question 
below, and there are a few places where more clarification of the 
interfaces could help.  Other than that, I think this is pretty good.

Attached is a small patch that changes the PERIOD keyword to unreserved 
for this patch.  You had said earlier that this didn't work for you. 
The attached patch works for me when applied on top of 0003.


* v27-0002-Add-GiST-referencedagg-support-func.patch

Can we just hardcode the use of range_agg for this release?  Might be 
easier.  I don't see all this generality being useful in the near future.

I didn't see any SETOF stuff in the patch, or I didn't know where to look.

I'm not sure I follow all the details here.  So more explanations of any 
kind could be helpful.


* v27-0003-Refactor-FK-operator-lookup.patch

I suggest to skip this refactoring patch.  I don't think the way this is 
sliced up is all that great, and it doesn't actually help with the 
subsequent patches.


* v27-0004-Add-temporal-FOREIGN-KEYs.patch

- src/backend/catalog/pg_constraint.c

FindFKPeriodOpersAndProcs() could use a bit more top-level
documentation.  Where does the input opclass come from?  What are the
three output values?  What is the business with "symmetric types"?

- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c

GetOperatorFromWellKnownStrategy() is apparently changed to accept
InvalidOid for rhstype, but the meaning of this is not explained in
the function header.  It's also not clear to me why an existing caller
is changed.  This should be explained more thoroughly.

- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c

is_temporal and similar should be renamed to with_period or similar 
throughout this patch.

In transformFkeyGetPrimaryKey():

      * Now build the list of PK attributes from the indkey definition (we
-    * assume a primary key cannot have expressional elements)
+    * assume a primary key cannot have expressional elements, unless it
+    * has a PERIOD)

I think the original statement is still true even with PERIOD.  The 
expressional elements refer to expression indexes.  I don't think we can 
have a PERIOD marker on an expression?

- src/backend/utils/adt/ri_triggers.c

Please remove the separate trigger functions for the period case.  They 
are the same as the non-period ones, so we don't need separate ones. 
The difference is handled lower in the call stack, which I think is a 
good setup.  Removing the separate functions also removes a lot of extra 
code in other parts of the patch.

- src/include/catalog/pg_constraint.h

Should also update catalogs.sgml accordingly.

- src/test/regress/expected/without_overlaps.out
- src/test/regress/sql/without_overlaps.sql

A few general comments on the tests:

- In the INSERT commands, specify the column names explicitly.  This 
makes the tests easier to read (especially since the column order 
between the PK and the FK table is sometimes different).

- Let's try to make it so that the inserted literals match the values 
shown in the various error messages, so it's easier to match them up. 
So, change the int4range literals to half-open notation.  And also maybe 
change the date output format to ISO.

- In various comments, instead of test FK "child", maybe use 
"referencing table"?  Instead of "parent", use "referenced table" (or 
primary key table).  When I read child and parent I was looking for 
inheritance.

- Consider truncating the test tables before each major block of tests 
and refilling them with fresh data.  So it's easier to eyeball the 
tests.  Otherwise, there is too much dependency on what earlier tests 
left behind.

A specific question:

In this test, a PERIOD marker on the referenced site is automatically 
inferred from the primary key:

+-- with inferred PK on the referenced table:
+CREATE TABLE temporal_fk_rng2rng (
+   id int4range,
+   valid_at tsrange,
+   parent_id int4range,
+   CONSTRAINT temporal_fk_rng2rng_pk PRIMARY KEY (id, valid_at WITHOUT 
OVERLAPS),
+   CONSTRAINT temporal_fk_rng2rng_fk FOREIGN KEY (parent_id, PERIOD 
valid_at)
+       REFERENCES temporal_rng
+);

In your patch, this succeeds.  According to the SQL standard, it should 
not.  In subclause 11.8, syntax rule 4b:

"""
Otherwise, the table descriptor of the referenced table shall include a 
unique constraint UC that specifies PRIMARY KEY. The table constraint 
descriptor of UC shall not include an application time period name.
"""

So this case is apparently explicitly ruled out.

(It might be ok to make an extension here, but then we should be 
explicit about it.)

my_range_agg_transfn error message is inconsistent?

maybe just `my_range_agg_transfn`, instead of mention
{range_agg_transfn|range_agg}
similarly my_range_agg_finalfn error is also inconsistent.

my_range_agg_finalfn need  `type_is_multirange(mltrngtypoid)`?

maybe just change the tsrange type to daterange, then the dot out file
will be far less verbose.

minor issues while reviewing v27, 0001 to 0004.

period_contained_by_oper is the operator where a single period/range
contained by a single period/range.
agged_period_contained_by_oper is the operator oid where a period
contained by a bound of periods
period_referenced_agg_proc is the oprcode of the agged_period_contained_by_oper.
period_referenced_agg_rettype is the function
period_referenced_agg_proc returning data type.

Hello,

Here is a new patch series addressing the last few feedback emails
from Peter & Jian He. It mostly focuses on the FKs patch, trying to
get it really ready to commit, but it also finishes restoring all the
functionality to the PERIODs patch (that I removed temporarily when we
changed PERIODs to GENERATED columns). I still want to restore a few
more tests there, but all the functionality is back (e.g. PERIODs with
foreign keys and FOR PORTION OF), so it proves the GENERATED idea
works in principle. Specific feedback below:

Okay, I've hard-coded range_agg in the main patch and separated the
support for multirange/etc in the next two patches. But there isn't
much code there (mostly tests and docs). Since we can't hard-code the
*operators*, most of the infrastructure is already there not to
hard-code the aggregate function. Supporting multiranges is already a
nice improvement. E.g. it should cut down on disk usage when a record
gets updated frequently. Supporting arbitrary types also seems very
powerful, and we already do that for PKs.

This is talking about the FOR PORTION OF patch, not the FKs patch. It
is the function that gives the "leftovers" after a temporal
UPDATE/DELETE. There is explanation in the preliminary patch (adding
the support function) and the actual FOR PORTION OF patch, but if you
think they need more let me know.

But I'd love to talk more about this here: The reason for using a
SETOF function is because you can't return an anyarray from a function
that takes anyrange or anymultirange. Or rather if you do, the array
elements match the rangetype's bounds' type, not the rangetype itself:
`T[] f(rangetype<T>)`, not `rangetype<T>[] f(rangetype<T>)`, and we
need the latter. So to get a list of rangetype objects we do a SETOF
function that is `anyrange f(anyrange)`. Personally I think an
improvement would be to add a broken-out patch to add pseudotypes
called anyrangearray and anymultirangearray, but using SETOF works
now, and I don't know if anyone is interested in such a patch. But
it's not the first time I've hit this shortcoming in the pg type
system, so I think it's worthwhile. And since FOR PORTION OF isn't
getting into v17, there is time to do it. What do you think? If it's
an acceptable idea I will get started. It should be a separate
commitfest entry I think.

It's not so much changing a param as removing one and adding another.
The old param was unneeded because it's just the opclass's opcintype,
and we're already passing the opclass. Then the new param lets you
optionally ask for an operator that is not `opcintype op opcintype`
but `opcintype op rhstype`. We need this because FKs compare fkattr <@
range_agg(pkattr)`, and range_agg returns a multirange, not a range.
Even if we hard-code range_agg, the easiest way to get the operator is
to use this function, passing ANYMULTIRANGEOID (but better is to pass
whatever the referencedagg support func returns, as the now-separate
multirange/custom type patch does).

You're right: I wrote this back before PERIODs became GENERATED
columns. Updated now.

Done. The later patch for FKs with CASCADE/SET NULL/SET DEFAULT still
has separate functions (since they call actually-different
implementations), but I will see if I can unify things a bit more
there.

Done. Also changed the tsrange cols to daterange and made them
YYYY-MM-DD. This is much easier to read IMO.

Note there were already a few tsrange columns in the PK tests, so I
changed those separately in the very first patch here.

Done. This will also let me reuse ids in the FOR PORTION OF
partitioned table tests, but that's not done yet.

Okay, I agree it doesn't match the standard. IMO our behavior is
better, but the patches here should let you go either way. The main FK
patch keeps the old behavior, but there is a follow-up patch doing
what the standard says. There are some interesting implications, which
you can see by looking at the test changes in that patch. Basically
you can never give an inferred REFERENCES against a temporal table.
Either your FK has a PERIOD element, and it fails because we exclude
the PK's WITHOUT OVERLAPS in the inferred attributes, or your FK does
not have a PERIOD element, and it fails because you want a PK side
that is genuinely unique, but the PK index has a temporal definition
of "unique" (and is not B-tree but GiST).

I don't see any drawbacks from supporting inferred REFERENCES with
temporal tables, so my vote is to break from the standard here, and
*not* apply that follow-up patch. Should I add some docs about that?
Also skipping the patch will cause some annoying merge conflicts, so
let me know if that's what you choose and I'll handle them right away.

Btw I tried checking what other vendors do here, but no one supports
temporal FKs yet! MS SQL Server doesn't support application time at
all. Oracle and MariaDB don't support temporal PKs or FKs. And IBM DB2
only supports temporal PKs. Actually DB2's docs in 2019 were
*claiming* they supported temporal FKs, but it didn't work for me or
at least one other person posting in their forums. And the latest docs
no longer mention it.[1] I wrote about trying to make it work in my
survey of other vendors.[2] The old docs are now a 404,[3] as is the
forums post.[4] My DB2 test code is below in case anyone else wants to
try.[5] So there is no precedent here for us to follow.

Incidentally, here are two non-standard things I would like to add "some day":

1. FKs from non-temporal tables to temporal tables. Right now temporal
tables are "contagious", which can be annoying. Maybe a non-temporal
record is valid as long as a referenced temporal row exists at *any
time*. You can't do that today. You can't even add an additional
UNIQUE constraint, because there are surely duplicates that invalidate
it. This kind of FK would be satisfied if *at least one* reference
exists.

2. FKs from a single-timestamp table to a temporal table. Maybe the
referring table is an "event" with no duration, but it is valid as
long as the referenced table contains it. A workaround is to have a
range that is `[t,t]`, but that's annoying.

Anyway that's not important for these patches. As far as I can tell,
whatever we choose re inferred PERIOD in REFERENCES keeps our options
open for those ideas.

One more thought: if we wanted to be cheekily compatible with the
standard, we could infer *range types* that are WITHOUT OVERLAPs but
not true PERIOD objects. "The table constraint descriptor of UC shall
not include an application time period name." If it's a rangetype
column, then it doesn't include a period name. :-P. So then we would
skip the follow-up patch here but I could work it into the final patch
for PERIOD support. This is probably not the wisest choice, although I
guess it does let us defer deciding what to do.

Reworked the language here.

This matches what other aggs do (e.g. array_agg, json_agg, etc.) as
well as the actual core range_agg code. And I think it is an
appropriate difference. You only hit the first error if you are
invoking the transfn directly, so that's what we should say. OTOH you
hit the second error by calling the aggregate function, but with the
wrong type. So the error message should mention the aggregate
function.

> my_range_agg_finalfn need  `type_is_multirange(mltrngtypoid)`?

This isn't part of the core range_agg_finalfn, so I'd rather not
include it here. And I don't think it is needed. You would only get a
non-multirange if the transfn does something wrong, and even if it
does, the error will be caught and reported in
multirange_get_typcache.

The patch about inferred REFERENCES moves things around a bit, so this

Likewise.

No, that conversation is about handling WITHOUT OVERLAPS, not PERIOD.
Because the syntax is `valid_at WITHOUT OVERLAPS` but `PERIOD
valid_at` (post vs pre), we must handle PERIOD inside the function.

Expanded these comments a bit.

Thanks to you both for such detailed, careful feedback!

Rebased to 605062227f.

If anything else comes up re FKs I'll tackle that first, but otherwise
I think I will work on some of the outstanding issues in the FOR
PORTION OF patch (e.g. trigger transition table names). I may
experiment with handling the leftover inserts as a separate executor
node. If anyone has advice there I'm happy to hear it!

Yours,
Paul

Subject: [PATCH v28 4/9] Add GiST referencedagg support func

This is the thirteenth support function and lets us implement temporal
foreign keys without hardcoding the range_agg function. The support
function should be an aggregate function that takes a type matching the
foreign key's PERIOD element and returns a type that can appear on the
righthand side of a ContainedBy operator, so that for example we can say
`fkperiod <@ range_agg(pkperiod)`.

From 99ecbc62382b64d90859a734d3515cd64dc17573 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "Paul A. Jungwirth" <[email protected]>
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2024 21:45:37 -0800
Subject: [PATCH v28 2/9] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v28 6/9] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return an array of their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

Subject: [PATCH v28 7/9] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v28 9/9] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

+       <entry>13</entry>
+      </row>
comparing with surrounding items, maybe need to add `(optional)`?
I think the explanation is not good as explained in referencedagg entry below:
      <para>
       An aggregate function. Given values of this opclass,
       it returns a value combining them all. The return value
       need not be the same type as the input, but it must be a
       type that can appear on the right hand side of the "contained by"
       operator. For example the built-in <literal>range_ops</literal>
       opclass uses <literal>range_agg</literal> here, so that foreign
       keys can check <literal>fkperiod @> range_agg(pkperiod)</literal>.
      </para>


+      In other words, the reference must have a referent for its
entire duration.
+      This column must be a column with a range type.
+      In addition the referenced table must have a primary key
+      or unique constraint declared with <literal>WITHOUT PORTION</literal>.
+     </para>
seems you missed replacing this one.


in v28-0002, the function name is FindFKPeriodOpers,
then in v28-0005 rename it to FindFKPeriodOpersAndProcs?
renaming the function name in a set of patches seems not a good idea?


+      <para>
+       This is used for temporal foreign key constraints.
+       If you omit this support function, your type cannot be used
+       as the <literal>PERIOD</literal> part of a foreign key.
+      </para>
in v28-0004, I think here "your type"  should change to "your opclass"?

maybe
`

to
`

`
or we can put the whole function to cache/lsyscache.c
name it just as proc_is_aggregate.

one more minor issue related to error reporting.
I've only applied v28, 0001 to 0005.

because in transformFkeyGetPrimaryKey.
we have `if (indexStruct->indisexclusion && i == indexStruct->indnatts - 1)`
we have pk_with_period, fk_with_period in Constraint struct.

maybe we can add a bool argument to transformFkeyGetPrimaryKey
indicate, this primary key is a conperiod constraint.
then we can check condition: the primary key is a conperiod constraint
and fk_with_period or is pk_with_period is false

I've made a patch to make these error reporting more accurate.
you can further refine it.

Hi All,

A few more changes here:

We do say this function is optional above, in the list of support functions. That seems to be the 
normal approach. The only other support function that mentions being optional elsewhere is sortsupport.

Can you explain what you'd like to see improved here?

I'm not sure what this is referring to. Replaced what?

We'll only apply part 5 if we support more than range types (though I think that would be great). It 
doesn't make sense to name this function FindFKPeriodOpersAndProcs when it isn't yet finding a proc. 
If it's a problem to rename it in part 5 perhaps the commits should be squashed by the committer? 
But I don't see the problem really.

I think "your type" addresses what the user is more likely to care about, but I added some 
clarification here.

Added the constant reference. Since lsyscache.c already has get_func_prokind, I changed the gist 
validation function to call that directly.

The changes to psql and pg_dump happen in pg_get_constraintdef_worker and

Changed to hasperiod.

paramname holds 16 chars so I don't think there is any risk of an int overflowing here. The existing 
foreign key code already uses sprintf, so I don't think it makes sense to be inconsistent here. And 
if we want to change it it should probably be in a separate commit, not buried in a commit about 
adding temporal foreign keys.

You're right, now that we have temporal primary keys the comment is out-of-date.
You can reach that error message by creating a regular foreign key against a temporal primary key.

Perhaps we should update the comment separately, although I haven't added a new patch for that here.
I did update the comment as part of this FK patch. I also added "non-PERIOD" to the error message
(which only makes sense in the FK patch). Since the error message was impossible before, I assume 
that is no problem. I think this is a simpler fix than what you have in your attached patch. In 
addition your patch doesn't work if we include part 3 here: see Peter's feedback about the SQL 
standard and my reply.

Rebased to 846311051e.

Yours,

Subject: [PATCH v29 1/9] Use daterange and YMD in tests instead of tsrange.

This makes things a lot easier to read, especially when we get to the
FOREIGN KEY tests later.

Subject: [PATCH v29 2/9] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v29 4/9] Add GiST referencedagg support func

This is the thirteenth support function and lets us implement temporal
foreign keys without hardcoding the range_agg function. The support
function should be an aggregate function that takes a type matching the
foreign key's PERIOD element and returns a type that can appear on the
righthand side of a ContainedBy operator, so that for example we can say
`fkperiod <@ range_agg(pkperiod)`.

Subject: [PATCH v29 6/9] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return SETOF their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

From 6bdb2bb9eeb3ebb0799865db095e2ce07883fd58 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "Paul A. Jungwirth" <[email protected]>
Date: Fri, 25 Jun 2021 18:54:35 -0700
Subject: [PATCH v29 7/9] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v29 9/9] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

Hi, I just found out some minor issues.

+ * types matching the PERIOD element. periodprocoid is a GiST support
function to

+ * e.g. many ranges can be aggregated into a multirange).
  * And aggedperiodoperoid is also a ContainedBy operator,

+ * but one whose rhs matches the type returned by aggedperiodoperoid.
  * That way foreign keys can compare fkattr <@ range_agg(pkattr).

+FindFKPeriodOpersAndProcs(Oid opclass,
+  Oid *periodoperoid,
+  Oid *aggedperiodoperoid,

I think, aggedperiodoperoid is more descriptive than periodprocoid, in
0005, you don't need to rename it.
aslo do we need to squash v29 0001 to 0005 together?

I have committed the test changes (range and date format etc.).

The FOREIGN KEY patch looks okay to me now.  Maybe check if any of the 
subsequent comments from jian should be applied.

I think we could also handle multiranges in a hardcoded way?  Ranges and 
multiranges are hardcoded concepts anyway.  It's just when we move to 
arbitrary types supporting containment, then it gets a bit more complicated.

What would a patch that adds just multiranges on the FK side, but 
without the full pluggable gist support, look like?

I agree we can allow this.

Okay, specifics below.

Attached a separate patch extending FKs to multiranges only. I'd still love to support arbitrary 
types eventually but it's not part of the patches here now.

Great, thanks! Took out those changes.

I changed the operator names to {,agged}containedbyoperoid. The proc names are not included now 
because we only need them for supporting more than ranges + multiranges.

Okay, added a sentence about that (and adjusted some other things re allowing implicit REFERENCES

In earlier feedback Peter advised not changing the "equals" language (e.g. in KeysEqual). But I 
added a comment at the top of the struct to clarify.

Rebased to 605721f819.

Subject: [PATCH v30 1/6] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v30 3/6] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return SETOF their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

Subject: [PATCH v30 4/6] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v30 6/6] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

hi.
minor cosmetic issues, other than that, looks good.

*pk_period = (indexStruct->indisexclusion);
to
*pk_period = indexStruct->indisexclusion;


if (with_period)
{
if (!fkconstraint->fk_with_period)
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_FOREIGN_KEY),
errmsg("foreign key uses PERIOD on the referenced table but not the
referencing table")));
}

change to

if (with_period && !fkconstraint->fk_with_period)
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_FOREIGN_KEY),
errmsg("foreign key uses PERIOD on the referenced table but not the
referencing table")));

Subject: [PATCH v31 1/6] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v31 3/6] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return SETOF their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

Subject: [PATCH v31 4/6] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v31 6/6] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

with foreign key "no action",
in a transaction, we can first insert foreign key data, then primary key data.
also the update/delete can fail at the end of transaction.

based on [1] explanation about the difference between "no action" and
"restrict".
I only refactor the v31-0002-Support-multiranges-in-temporal-FKs.patch test.

Two more questions:

1. In ri_triggers.c ri_KeysEqual, you swap the order of arguments to 
ri_AttributesEqual():

-           if (!ri_AttributesEqual(riinfo->ff_eq_oprs[i], 
RIAttType(rel, attnums[i]),
-                                   oldvalue, newvalue))
+           if (!ri_AttributesEqual(eq_opr, RIAttType(rel, attnums[i]),
+                                   newvalue, oldvalue))

But the declared arguments of ri_AttributesEqual() are oldvalue and 
newvalue, so passing them backwards is really confusing.  And the change 
does matter in the tests.

Can we organize this better?

2. There are some tests that error with

ERROR:  only b-tree indexes are supported for non-PERIOD foreign keys

But this is an elog() error, so should not normally be visible.  I 
suspect some other error should really show here, and the order of 
checks is a bit wrong or something?

I renamed the params and actually the whole function. All it's doing is execute `oldvalue op 
newvalue`, casting if necessary. So I changed it to ri_CompareWithCast and added some documentation. 
In an earlier version of this patch I had a separate function for the PERIOD comparison, but it's 
just doing the same thing, so I think the best thing is to give the function a more accurate name 
and use it.

At first I thought I should just make this ereport, because it is reachable now, but I didn't like 
the error message or where we were reaching it. The high-level problem is defining a non-temporal FK
against a temporal PK, and we should check for that in those terms, not when looking at individual 
attribute opclasses. So I added a check prior to this and gave it a more descriptive error message.

I added some tests for deferred NO ACTION checks. I added them for all of range/multirange/PERIOD. I 
also adopted your change ALTERing the constraint for NO ACTION (even though it's already that), to
make each test section more independent. Your patch had a lot of other noisy changes, e.g. 
whitespace and reordering lines. If there are other things you intended to add to the tests, can you 
describe them?

Rebased to 7e65ad197f.

Subject: [PATCH v32 1/6] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v32 3/6] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return SETOF their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

From 6c33b046a2b38f3a03f7fa3c2abbb1efed1e1dcd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "Paul A. Jungwirth" <[email protected]>
Date: Fri, 25 Jun 2021 18:54:35 -0700
Subject: [PATCH v32 4/6] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

From beefb6f6fbedddda19fafac88eb7bc4b1d1c1879 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "Paul A. Jungwirth" <[email protected]>

Subject: [PATCH v32 6/6] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

i think on update restrict, on delete restrict cannot be deferred,
even if you set it DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED.
based on this idea, I made minor change on
v32-0002-Support-multiranges-in-temporal-FKs.patch

other than that, v32, 0002 looks good.

Ok, I see now, and the new explanation is better.

But after reading the comment in the function about collations, I think 
there could be trouble.  As long as we are only comparing for equality 
(and we don't support nondeterministic global collations), then we can 
use any collation to compare for equality.  But if we are doing 
contained-by, then the collation does matter, so we would need to get 
the actual collation somehow.  So as written, this might not always work 
correctly.

I think it would be safer for now if we just kept using the equality 
operation even for temporal foreign keys.  If we did that, then in the 
case that you update a key to a new value that is contained by the old 
value, this function would say "not equal" and fire all the checks, even 
though it wouldn't need to.  This is kind of similar to the "false 
negatives" that the comment already talks about.

What do you think?

we don't need to worry about primary key and foreign key with
different collation.
because it will be error out as incompatible data type,
foreign key constraint will not be created.

if there are the same collation, when we build the query string, we
don't need to worry about collation.
because at runtime, the operator associated oprcode
will fetch collation information later.

main operator and the main oprcode related to this patch(0001, 0002) are:
range_contained_by_multirange
range_eq
range_overlaps
range_contained_by
the first 3 functions will fetch collation information within range_cmp_bounds.
range_contained_by will fetch collation information in
range_contains_elem_internal.

demo:
CREATE COLLATION case_insensitive (provider = icu, locale =
'und-u-ks-level2', deterministic = false);
DROP TABLE IF exists temporal_fk_rng2rng;
DROP TABLE IF exists temporal_rng;
DROP TYPE textrange_case_insensitive;
create type textrange_case_insensitive as range(subtype=text,
collation=case_insensitive);
CREATE TABLE temporal_rng (id int4range, valid_at textrange_case_insensitive);
ALTER TABLE temporal_rng
ADD CONSTRAINT temporal_rng_pk
PRIMARY KEY (id, valid_at WITHOUT OVERLAPS);
CREATE TABLE temporal_fk_rng2rng (
id int4range,
valid_at  textrange_case_insensitive,
parent_id int4range,
CONSTRAINT temporal_fk_rng2rng_fk2 FOREIGN KEY (parent_id, PERIOD valid_at)
REFERENCES temporal_rng (id, PERIOD valid_at)
);
INSERT INTO temporal_rng (id, valid_at) VALUES ('[1,2)',
textrange_case_insensitive('c', 'h','[]'));

--fail
INSERT INTO temporal_fk_rng2rng (id, valid_at, parent_id)
VALUES ('[1,2)', textrange_case_insensitive('B', 'B','[]'), '[1,2)');

--fail.
INSERT INTO temporal_fk_rng2rng (id, valid_at, parent_id)

--fail.
INSERT INTO temporal_fk_rng2rng (id, valid_at, parent_id)
VALUES ('[1,2)', textrange_case_insensitive('e', 'Z','[]'), '[1,2)');

--ok
INSERT INTO temporal_fk_rng2rng (id, valid_at, parent_id)

I agree with jian he here. Here is my own investigation:

Rangetypes themselves are never collatable (see DefineRange in commands/typecmds.c).
But rangetypes do store a collation for their base type. So you can say:

paul=# create type textrange as range (subtype = text, collation = "C");
CREATE TYPE

That is stored in pg_range.rngcollation, but pg_type.typcollation is always zero.

So putting a collection on a rangetype column is an error:

paul=# create table t (r1 textrange collate "en-US-x-icu");
ERROR:  collations are not supported by type textrange

And so is using an ad hoc collation with an operator:

paul=# select '[J,J]'::textrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange collate "en-US-x-icu";
ERROR:  collations are not supported by type textrange
LINE 1: select '[J,J]'::textrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange collate "en-...

Almost everything ranges do is built on range_cmp_bounds, which uses the base type's collation. 
There is no way to use a different one.
So when ri_CompareWithCast calls `lhs <@ rhs`, it is using the collation for that range's base type.
Indexes will use the same collation.

You also can't mix different range types.
Our textrange puts (English) lowercase after uppercase:

paul=# select '[j,j]'::textrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
  ?column?
----------
  t
(1 row)

paul=# select '[J,J]'::textrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
  ?column?
----------
  f
(1 row)

We could create a rangetype that intermingles uppercase & lower:

paul=# create type itextrange as range (subtype = text, collation = "en-US-x-icu");
CREATE TYPE
paul=# select '[J,J]'::itextrange <@ '[a,z]'::itextrange;
  ?column?
----------
  t
(1 row)

But you can't mix them:

paul=# select '[J,J]'::itextrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
ERROR:  operator does not exist: itextrange <@ textrange
LINE 1: select '[J,J]'::itextrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
                                    ^
HINT:  No operator matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.

Even if I create casts, mixing still fails:

paul=# create cast (textrange as itextrange) without function as implicit;
CREATE CAST
paul=# create cast (itextrange as textrange) without function as implicit;
CREATE CAST
paul=# select '[J,J]'::itextrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
ERROR:  operator does not exist: itextrange <@ textrange
LINE 1: select '[J,J]'::itextrange <@ '[a,z]'::textrange;
                                    ^
HINT:  No operator matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.

That's because the operator parameters are anyrange, and in can_coerce_type we call 
check_generic_type_consistency which doesn't use casts.
It just asks if all the concrete range types are the same (as with other polymorphic types).

Adding a foreign key runs the same check:

paul=# create table pk (id int4range, valid_at textrange, constraint pkpk primary key (id, valid_at 
without overlaps));
CREATE TABLE
paul=# create table fk (id int4range, valid_at itextrange, parent_id int4range);
CREATE TABLE
paul=# alter table fk add constraint fkfk foreign key (parent_id, period valid_at) references pk;
ERROR:  foreign key constraint "fkfk" cannot be implemented
DETAIL:  Key columns "valid_at" and "valid_at" are of incompatible types: itextrange and textrange.

I guess the user could define their own `textrange <@ itextrange` operator, using the lhs collation.
We would choose that operator for pfeqop but not ppeqop or ffeqop.
And we use ffeqop here, which would allow us to skip a check that pfeqop would fail.
Is that an issue? It feels like the user is doing their best to get nonsense results at that point,
and it's not really about the collation per se.

Incidentally here is another separate issue with foreign keys and collations I noticed this morning: 
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/78d824e0-b21e-480d-a252-e4b84bc2c24b%40illuminatedcomputing.co...
That comes from nondeterministic collations, which feel like a troublesome thing here.
Probably foreign keys just weren't fully re-thought when we added them.

But we avoid the issue from 59a85cb4 (discussion at 
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/[email protected]) 
about cascading changes when a PK experiences a not-binary-identical change that the collation 
considers equal. These days we only call ri_CompareWithCast for changes on the FK side.

Now this is a long chain of reasoning to say rangetypes are safe. I added a comment. Note it doesn't 
apply to arbitrary types, so if we support those eventually we should just require a recheck always, 
or alternately use equals, not containedby. (That would require storing equals somewhere. It could 
go in ffeqop, but that feels like a footgun since pfeqop and ppeqop need overlaps.)

Subject: [PATCH v33 1/6] Add temporal FOREIGN KEYs

- Added bison support for temporal FOREIGN KEYs. They should have a
  range column for the temporal component. (Multirange and other types
  are not yet supported.)
- Added temporal trigger functions akin to existing RI trigger
  functions.
- Don't yet support ON {UPDATE,DELETE} {CASCADE,SET NULL,SET DEFAULT}.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Show the correct syntax in psql \d output for foreign keys.
- Added tests and documentation.

Subject: [PATCH v33 3/6] Add support funcs for FOR PORTION OF

- Adds intersect support procs.

  These just call the existing intersect functions,
  but they let us compute the portion of a row that is updated/deleted
  in a FOR PORTION command.

- Adds {multi,}range_without_portion support procs

  These return SETOF their input type and work like minus but don't
  fail on splits. They never contain empty elements. We will use this to
  compute FOR PORTION OF leftovers.

Subject: [PATCH v33 4/6] Add UPDATE/DELETE FOR PORTION OF

- Added bison support for FOR PORTION OF syntax. The bounds must be
  constant, so we forbid column references, subqueries, etc. But we
  permit the magic UNBOUNDED keyword as the FROM or the TO (or both)
  to perform an unbounded update/delete. We also accept functions like
  NOW().
- Added logic to executor to insert new rows for the "leftover" part of
  a record touched by a FOR PORTION OF query.
- Added tg_temporal descriptor to the TriggerData struct that we pass to
  trigger functions. Our triggers use this to learn what bounds were
  given in the FOR PORTION OF clause.
- Documented FOR PORTION OF.
- Documented tg_temporal struct.
- Added tests.

Subject: [PATCH v33 6/6] Add PERIODs

- Added parsing for SQL:2011 syntax to define an application-time PERIOD on a
  table (in both CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE). Make sure we create the PERIOD
  after columns are known (since PERIODs can refer to them) but before
  constraints are handled (since PERIODs can appear in them).
- Added ALTER TABLE DROP support for PERIODs.
- Created postgres.pg_period table.
- Created information_schema.periods view.
- Added pg_dump support.
- Added tests and documentation.
- Automatically define a constraint for each PERIOD requiring the start column
  to be less than the end column.
- When creating a PERIOD, choose an appropriate range type we can use to
  implement PERIOD-related operations. You can choose one explicitly if there
  is ambiguity (due to multiple range types created over the same base type).

Ok, this explanation is good enough for now.  I have committed the 
patches v33-0001-Add-temporal-FOREIGN-KEYs.patch and 
v33-0002-Support-multiranges-in-temporal-FKs.patch (together).

hi.
minor issues I found in v33-0003.
there are 29 of {check_amproc_signature?.*false}
only one {check_amproc_signature(procform->amproc, opcintype, true}
is this refactoring really worth it?

We also need to refactor gistadjustmembers?

+       <entry><function>intersect</function></entry>
+       <entry>computes intersection with <literal>FOR PORTION OF</literal>

+       <entry>computes remaining duration(s) outside
+       <literal>FOR PORTION OF</literal> bounds</entry>
+       <entry>14</entry>
+      </row>
needs to add "(optional)".


+<programlisting>
+Datum
+my_range_intersect(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
+{
+    RangeType  *r1 = PG_GETARG_RANGE_P(0);
+    RangeType  *r2 = PG_GETARG_RANGE_P(1);
+    TypeCacheEntry *typcache;
+
+    /* Different types should be prevented by ANYRANGE matching rules */
+    if (RangeTypeGetOid(r1) != RangeTypeGetOid(r2))
                                               elog(ERROR, "range

+

+
+    PG_RETURN_RANGE_P(range_intersect_internal(typcache, r1, r2));
+}
+</programlisting>
the elog, ERROR indentation is wrong?


+/*

+ */
+void
+range_without_portion_internal(TypeCacheEntry *typcache, RangeType *r1,
+   RangeType *r2, RangeType **outputs, int *outputn)
the comments need to be refactored?
there is nothing related to "slot"?
not sure the "array" description is right.
(my understanding is compute rangetype r1 and r2, and save the result to
RangeType **outputs.


select proisstrict, proname from pg_proc where proname =
'range_without_portion';
range_without_portion is strict.
but
select range_without_portion(NULL::int4range, int4range(11, 20,'[]'));
return zero rows.
Is this the expected behavior?


0003 seems simple enough.
but it's more related to "for portion of".
not sure we can push 0003 into v17.
