* Recurse to sequences on ownership change for all relkindsPeter Eisentraut2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a table ownership is changed, we must apply that also to any owned sequences. (Otherwise, it would result in a situation that cannot be restored, because linked sequences must have the same owner as the table.) But this was previously only applied to regular tables and materialized views. But it should also apply to at least foreign tables. This patch removes the relkind check altogether, because it doesn't save very much and just introduces the possibility of similar omissions.

* Implement %m in src/port/snprintf.c, and teach elog.c to rely on that.Tom Lane2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I started out with the idea that we needed to detect use of %m format specs in contexts other than elog/ereport calls, because we couldn't rely on that working in *printf calls. But a better answer is to fix things so that it does work. Now that we're using snprintf.c all the time, we can implement %m in that and we've fixed the problem. This requires also adjusting our various printf-wrapping functions so that they ensure "errno" is preserved when they call snprintf.c. Remove elog.c's handmade implementation of %m, and let it rely on snprintf to support the feature. That should provide some performance gain, though I've not attempted to measure it. There are a lot of places where we could now simplify 'printf("%s", strerror(errno))' into 'printf("%m")', but I'm not in any big hurry to make that happen.

* Always use our own versions of *printf().Tom Lane2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We've spent an awful lot of effort over the years in coping with platform-specific vagaries of the *printf family of functions. Let's just forget all that mess and standardize on always using src/port/snprintf.c. This gets rid of a lot of configure logic, and it will allow a saner approach to dealing with %m (though actually changing that is left for a follow-on patch). Preliminary performance testing suggests that as it stands, snprintf.c is faster than the native printf functions for some tasks on some platforms, and slower for other cases. A pending patch will improve that, though cases with floating-point conversions will doubtless remain slower unless we want to put a *lot* of effort into that. Still, we've not observed that *printf is really a performance bottleneck for most workloads, so I doubt this matters much.

* Incorporate strerror_r() into src/port/snprintf.c, too.Tom Lane2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | This provides the features that used to exist in useful_strerror() for users of strerror_r(), too. Also, standardize on the GNU convention that strerror_r returns a char pointer that may not be NULL. I notice that libpq's win32.c contains a variant version of strerror_r that probably ought to be folded into strerror.c. But lacking a Windows environment, I should leave that to somebody else.

* Convert elog.c's useful_strerror() into a globally-used strerror wrapper.Tom Lane2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | elog.c has long had a private strerror wrapper that handles assorted possible failures or deficiencies of the platform's strerror. On Windows, it also knows how to translate Winsock error codes, which the native strerror does not. Move all this code into src/port/strerror.c and define strerror() as a macro that invokes it, so that both our frontend and backend code will have all of this behavior. I believe this constitutes an actual bug fix on Windows, since AFAICS our frontend code did not report Winsock error codes properly before this. However, the main point is to lay the groundwork for implementing %m in src/port/snprintf.c: the behavior we want %m to have is this one, not the native strerror's. Note that this throws away the prior use of src/port/strerror.c, which was to implement strerror() on platforms lacking it. That's been dead code for nigh twenty years now, since strerror() was already required by C89. We should likewise cause strerror_r to use this behavior, but I'll tackle that separately.

* Update dummy CREATE ASSERTION grammarPeter Eisentraut2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | While we are probably still far away from fully implementing assertions, all patch proposals appear to take issue with the existing dummy grammar CREATE/DROP ASSERTION productions, so update those a little bit. Rename the rule, use any_name instead of name, and remove some unused code. Also remove the production for DROP ASSERTION, since that would most likely be handled via the generic DROP support. extracted from a patch by Joe Wildish
* Improve test coverage of geometric typesTomas Vondra2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit significantly increases test coverage of geo_ops.c, adding tests for various issues addressed by 2e2a392de3 (which went undetected for a long time, at least partially due to not being covered). This also removes alternative results expecting -0 on some platforms. Instead the functions are should return the same results everywhere, transforming -0 to 0 if needed. The tests are added to geometric.sql file, sorted by the left hand side of the operators. There are many cross datatype operators, so this seems like the best solution.

* Fix problems in handling the line data typeTomas Vondra2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to the source history, the internal format of line data type has changed, but various functions working with it did were not updated and thus were producing wrong results. This patch addresses various such issues, in particular: * Reject invalid specification A=B=0 on receive * Reject same points on line_construct_pp() * Fix perpendicular operator when negative values are involved * Avoid division by zero on perpendicular operator * Fix intersection and distance operators when neither A nor B are 1 * Return NULL for closest point when objects are parallel * Check whether closest point of line segments is the intersection point * Fix closest point of line segments being on the wrong segment Aside from handling those issues, the patch also aims to make operators more symmetric and less sen to precision loss. The EPSILON interferes with even minor changes, but the least we can do is applying it to both sides of the operators equally.

* Rework activation of commit timestamps during recoveryMichael Paquier2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The activation and deactivation of commit timestamp tracking has not been handled consistently for a primary or standbys at recovery. The facility can be activated at three different moments of recovery: - The beginning, where a primary would use the GUC value for the decision-making, and where a standby relies on the contents of the control file. - When replaying a XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE record at redo. - The end, where both primary and standby rely on the GUC value. Using the GUC value for a primary at the beginning of recovery causes problems with commit timestamp access when doing crash recovery. Particularly, when replaying transaction commits, it could be possible that an attempt to read commit timestamps is done for a transaction which committed at a moment when track_commit_timestamp was disabled. A test case is added to reproduce the failure. The test works down to v11 as it takes advantage of transaction commits within procedures.

* Split ExecStoreTuple into ExecStoreHeapTuple and ExecStoreBufferHeapTuple.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming changes introduce further types of tuple table slots, in preparation of making table storage pluggable. New storage methods will have different representation of tuples, therefore the slot accessor should refer explicitly to heap tuples. Instead of just renaming the functions, split it into one function that accepts heap tuples not residing in buffers, and one accepting ones in buffers. Previously one function was used for both, but that was a bit awkward already, and splitting will allow us to represent slot types for tuples in buffers and normal memory separately. This is split out from the patch introducing abstract slots, as this largely consists out of mechanical changes.

* Make some fixes to allow building Postgres on macOS 10.14 ("Mojave").Tom Lane2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apple's latest rearrangements of the system-supplied headers have broken building of PL/Perl and PL/Tcl. The only practical way to fix PL/Tcl is to start using the "-isysroot" compiler flag to point to SDK-supplied headers, as Apple expects. We must also start distinguishing where to find Perl's headers from where to find its shared library; but that seems like good cleanup anyway. Extensions that formerly did something like -I$(perl_archlibexp)/CORE should now do -I$(perl_includedir)/CORE instead. perl_archlibexp is still the place to look for libperl.so, though. If for some reason you don't like the default -isysroot setting, you can override that by setting PG_SYSROOT in configure's arguments. I don't currently think people would need to do so, unless maybe for cross-version build purposes. In addition, teach configure where to find tclConfig.sh. Our traditional method of searching $auto_path hasn't worked for the last couple of macOS releases, and it now seems clear that Apple's not going to change that. The workaround of manually specifying --with-tclconfig was annoying already, but Mojave's made it a lot more so because the sysroot path now has to be included as well. Let's just wire the knowledge into configure instead. To avoid breaking builds against non-default Tcl installations (e.g. MacPorts) wherein the $auto_path method probably still works, arrange to try the additional case only after all else has failed. Back-patch to all supported versions, since at least the buildfarm cares about that. The changes are set up to not do anything on macOS releases that are old enough to not have functional sysroot trees.
* Avoid unnecessary precision loss for pgbench's --rate target.Tom Lane2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It's fairly silly to truncate the throttle_delay to integer when the only math we ever do with it requires converting back to double. Furthermore, given that people are starting to complain about restrictions like only supporting 1K client connections, I don't think we're very far away from situations where the precision loss matters. As the code stood, for example, there's no difference between --rate 100001 and --rate 111111; both get converted to throttle_delay = 9. Somebody trying to run 100 threads and have each one dispatch around 1K TPS would find this lack of precision rather surprising, especially since the required per-thread delays are around 1ms, well within the timing precision of modern systems.

* Use ppoll(2), if available, to wait for input in pgbench.Tom Lane2018-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, pgbench always used select(2) for this purpose, but that's problematic for very high client counts, because select() can't deal with file descriptor numbers larger than FD_SETSIZE. It's pretty common for that to be only 1024 or so, whereas modern OSes can allow many more open files than that. Using poll(2) would surmount that problem, but it creates another one: poll()'s timeout resolution is only 1ms, which is poor enough to cause problems with --rate specifications approaching or exceeding 1K TPS. On platforms that have ppoll(2), which includes Linux and recent FreeBSD, we can use that to avoid the FD_SETSIZE problem without any loss of timeout resolution. Hence, add configure logic to test for ppoll(), and use it if available. This patch introduces an abstraction layer into pgbench that could be extended to support other kernel event-wait APIs such as kevents. But actually adding such support is a matter for some future patch.

Repair those errors, add an Assert that the space is now correctly calculated, and make some minor improvements in the comments.

* Fix failure in WHERE CURRENT OF after rewinding the referenced cursor.Tom Lane2018-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a case where we have multiple relation-scan nodes in a cursor plan, such as a scan of an inheritance tree, it's possible to fetch from a given scan node, then rewind the cursor and fetch some row from an earlier scan node. In such a case, execCurrent.c mistakenly thought that the later scan node was still active, because ExecReScan hadn't done anything to make it look not-active. We'd get some sort of failure in the case of a SeqScan node, because the node's scan tuple slot would be pointing at a HeapTuple whose t_self gets reset to invalid by heapam.c. But it seems possible that for other relation scan node types we'd actually return a valid tuple TID to the caller, resulting in updating or deleting a tuple that shouldn't have been considered current. To fix, forcibly clear the ScanTupleSlot in ExecScanReScan. Another issue here, which seems only latent at the moment but could easily become a live bug in future, is that rewinding a cursor does not necessarily lead to *immediately* applying ExecReScan to every scan-level node in the plan tree. Upper-level nodes will think that they can postpone that call if their child node is already marked with chgParam flags. I don't see a way for that to happen today in a plan tree that's simple enough for execCurrent.c's search_plan_tree to understand, but that's one heck of a fragile assumption. So, add some logic in search_plan_tree to detect chgParam flags being set on nodes that it descended to/through, and assume that that means we should consider lower scan nodes to be logically reset even if their ReScan call hasn't actually happened yet. Per bug #15395 from Matvey Arye. This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Improve tab completion for ANALYZE, EXPLAIN, and VACUUM.Tom Lane2018-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we made no attempt to provide tab completion in these statements' optional parenthesized options lists. This patch teaches psql to do so. To prevent the option completions from being offered after we've already seen a complete parenthesized option list, it's necessary to improve word_matches() so that it allows a wildcard '*' in the middle of an alternative, not only at the end as formerly. That requires only a little more code than before, and it allows us to test for "incomplete parenthesized options" with a test like else if (HeadMatches2("EXPLAIN", "(*") && !HeadMatches2("EXPLAIN", "(*)")) In addition, add some logic to offer column names in the context of "ANALYZE tablename ( ...", and likewise for VACUUM. This isn't real complete; it won't offer column names again after a comma. But it's better than before, and it doesn't take much code.

* Rationalize Query_for_list_of_[relations] query names in tab-complete.c.Tom Lane2018-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous convention was to use names based on the set of relkinds being selected for, which was not at all helpful for maintenance, especially since people had been quite inconsistent about whether to change the names when they changed the relkinds being selected for. Instead, use names based on the functionality we need the relation to have, following the model established by Query_for_list_of_updatables. While at it, sort the list of Query constants a bit better; it had the distinct air of code-assembled-by-dartboard before. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/14830.1537481254@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Use size_t consistently in dsa.{ch}.Thomas Munro2018-09-22
| | | | | | | | Takeshi Ideriha complained that there is a mixture of Size and size_t in dsa.c and corresponding header. Let's use size_t. Back-patch to 10 where dsa.c landed, to make future back-patching easy. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4E72940DA2BF16479384A86D54D0988A6F19ABD9%40G01JPEXMBKW04

* Error out for clang on x86-32 without SSE2 support, no -fexcess-precision.Andres Freund2018-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As clang currently doesn't support -fexcess-precision=standard, compiling x86-32 code with SSE2 disabled, can lead to problems with floating point overflow checks and the like. This issue was noticed because clang, on at least some BSDs, defaults to i386 compatibility, whereas it defaults to pentium4 on Linux. Our forced usage of __builtin_isinf() lead to some overflow checks not triggering when compiling for i386, e.g. when the result of the calculation didn't overflow in 80bit registers, but did so in 64bit. While we could just fall back to a non-builtin isinf, it seems likely that the use of 80bit registers leads to other problems (which is why we force the flag for GCC already). Therefore error out when detecting clang in that situation.

* Remove special handling for open() in initdb for WindowsMichael Paquier2018-09-21
| | | | | 40cfe86 enforces the translation mode to text for all frontends, so this special handling in initdb is not needed anymore.
* Fix psql's tab completion for TABLE.Tom Lane2018-09-20
| | | | | | This should offer the same relation types that SELECT ... FROM would. You can't select from an index for instance, so offering it here is unhelpful. Noted while testing ilmari's recent patch.
* Fix psql's tab completion for ALTER DATABASE ... SET TABLESPACE.Tom Lane2018-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | We have the infrastructure to offer a list of tablespace names, but it wasn't being used here; instead you got "FROM", "CURRENT", and "TO" which aren't actually legal in this syntax.

* Add missing pg_description strings for pg_type entries.Tom Lane2018-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that all non-composite, non-array entries in pg_type.dat had descr strings, except for "json" and the pseudo-types. The lack for json seems certainly an oversight, and there's surely little reason to not have entries for the pseudo-types either. So add some. "make reformat-dat-files" turned up some formatting issues in pg_amop.dat, too, so fix those in passing. No catversion bump since the backend doesn't care too much what is in pg_description.
* Teach genbki.pl to auto-generate pg_type entries for array types.Tom Lane2018-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This eliminates some more tedium in adding new catalog entries, specifically the need to set up an array type when adding a new built-in data type. Now it's sufficient to assign an OID for the array type and write it in an "array_type_oid" metadata field. You don't have to fill the base type's typarray link explicitly, either. No catversion bump since the contents of pg_type aren't changed. (Well, their order might be different, but that doesn't matter.)

* Fix handling of format string text characters in to_timestamp()/to_date()Alexander Korotkov2018-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | cf984672 introduced improvement of handling of spaces and separators in to_timestamp()/to_date() functions. In particular, now we're skipping spaces both before and after fields. That may cause format string text character to consume part of field in the situations, when it didn't happen before cf984672. This commit cause format string text character consume input string characters only when since previous field (or string beginning) number of skipped input string characters is not greater than number of corresponding format string characters (that is we didn't skip any extra characters in input string).
