How does JIT compilation work in PostgreSQL Uses LLVM (llvm.org) Optional Feature (./configure -with-llvm) Doesn’t work on Windows at this point Packagers can install support separately (e.g postgresql11-llvmjit for yum.postgresql.org) jit = on && SELECT pgjitavailable.

The LLVM Getting Started documentation may be out of date. So, the ClangGetting Started page might also be agood place to start.

• PostgreSQL 's JIT implementation can inline the bodies of functions of types C and internal, as well as operators based on such functions.To do so for functions in extensions, the definitions of those functions need to be made available. When using PGXS to build an extension against a server that has been compiled with LLVM JIT support, the relevant files will be built and installed automatically.
• The FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres database system extends the PostgreSQL features and runs on the Linux platform. This document describes how to install and set up 'FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres'. Intended readers This document is intended for those who install and operate FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres.

Here’s the short story for getting up and running quickly with LLVM:

1. Read the documentation.

2. Read the documentation.

3. Remember that you were warned twice about reading the documentation.

4. Checkout LLVM (including related subprojects like Clang):

   • gitclonehttps://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git
   • Or, on windows, gitclone--configcore.autocrlf=falsehttps://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git

5. Configure and build LLVM and Clang:.

   • cdllvm-project

   • mkdirbuild

   • cdbuild

   • cmake-G<generator>[options]../llvm

     Some common generators are:

     • Ninja — for generating Ninjabuild files. Most llvm developers use Ninja.
     • UnixMakefiles — for generating make-compatible parallel makefiles.
     • VisualStudio — for generating Visual Studio projects andsolutions.
     • Xcode — for generating Xcode projects.

     Some Common options:

     • -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='...' — semicolon-separated list of the LLVMsubprojects you’d like to additionally build. Can include any of: clang,clang-tools-extra, libcxx, libcxxabi, libunwind, lldb, compiler-rt, lld,polly, or debuginfo-tests.

       For example, to build LLVM, Clang, libcxx, and libcxxabi, use-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='clang;libcxx;libcxxabi'.

     • -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=directory — Specify for directory the fullpathname of where you want the LLVM tools and libraries to be installed(default /usr/local).

     • -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=type — Valid options for type are Debug,Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel. Default is Debug.

     • -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=On — Compile with assertion checks enabled(default is Yes for Debug builds, No for all other build types).

   • Run your build tool of choice!

     • The default target (i.e. ninja or make) will build all of LLVM.
     • The check-all target (i.e. ninjacheck-all) will run theregression tests to ensure everything is in working order.
     • CMake will generate build targets for each tool and library, and mostLLVM sub-projects generate their own check-<project> target.
     • Running a serial build will be slow. Make sure you run a parallelbuild. That’s already done by default in Ninja; for make, usemake-jNNN (with an appropriate value of NNN, e.g. number of CPUsyou have.)

   • For more information see CMake

   • If you get an “internal compiler error (ICE)” or test failures, seebelow.

In a number of workloads, primarily of analytical nature, several parts of postgres' query execution are limited by CPU speeds. One way to address that is by allowing queries to be processed by more than one core at a time; which the project started to enable with 9.6, extended a lot in version 10, with significant additional features expected in 11. But that does not address the efficiency / economics of overall query execution.

This talk will focus on increasing the efficiency of query execution by just in time compiling parts of queries. That is, instead of having roughly interpreter like code to execute the queries, emit native code doing precisely the work needed for a specific query.

The current goal of the project is to use LLVM to perform JIT of two main parts of query execution:

• expression evaluation (WHERE clause, aggregates, GROUP BY clauses, etc)
• tuple deforming (converting on-disk tuples into a more efficiently accessible in-memory representation)

and to integrate as much of that work as possible into PostgreSQL 11.

We'll discuss:

• how the above parts of the system were identified as the primary bottlenecks
• how JIT compilation can help resolve them
• which structural changes to postgres were required to allow for JIT compilation
• how JIT compilation is currently implemented, including the current development state
• the problems faced using LLVM for this task, and which improvements to it could make it better for the use-case

Depending on the available time, we'll also discuss possible future avenues for optimization.
